As Ye Zichen drew closer, he noticed that the silver light was in motion.
Fortunately, it wasn't particularly fast. Given Ye Zichen's speed through the spatial storms, he should be able to see its true form in less than an hour.
"Could there be living creatures in the spatial cracks too?"
Since it could move, Ye Zichen naturally thought of living creatures.
The only thing that made him a little hesitant was that if that silver light really came from a creature, that creature's body was a little too big.
At the very least, Ye Zichen couldn't see where the silver light ended.
It was as if the silver light had cut through the pitch-black spatial cracks.
No matter what the silver light's true form was, Ye Zichen decided to step forward and take a look. He spared no effort in circulating his divine power. While maintaining the barrier's stability, he inched closer and closer to the silver light.
Ten minutes passed.
During this period of time, something happened that made Ye Zichen want to retreat. The silver light seemed to have sensed him and changed its direction in an attempt to approach him.
Ye Zichen had long since suspected it was a living creature, but at the time, he'd wanted to retreat.
However ….
When the silver light drew closer, he realized that it wasn't the living creature he'd imagined. The silver light was still a distance away, but it was no longer a silver thread. Instead, it resembled a long, silver pillar.
Ye Zichen could only vaguely make out what seemed like a building.
When he got closer to the silver light, he gradually saw the true form of the building.
It was a long hallway!
Ye Zichen couldn't tell how long it was. At least, as far as he could see, the hallway didn't seem to end.
It was about ten meters tall and entirely silvery white. The silver light he'd seen earlier had come from the building's surface.
The raging spatial storms hadn't left a single mark on its silvery surface. This was absolutely good news for Ye Zichen. Maintaining the barrier's stability had consumed too much of his energy. Even with a constant supply of pills and a high level of concentration, he'd still consumed a great deal of his mental energy. What he needed now was a safe haven against the spatial storms, a place where he could recover both his divine power and mental energy.
Rest.
This hallway was absolutely the perfect place!
Ye Zichen didn't hesitate for too long. After confirming that there was no danger in the corridor, he entered it.
"I'm finally in."
When he entered the hallway, Ye Zichen sat on the ground and panted heavily. Speaking of which, this hallway was rather strange. He could enter the entrance, but the storm outside couldn't.
The raging spatial storm could only howl outside, but it had no effect on the corridor.
The hallway was pitch-black. Ye Zichen paced back and forth at the entrance for the time it takes to brew a few cups of tea.
There were no decorations or embellishments on the walls. It could be said that it was completely empty.
However, as Ye Zichen stood in the hallway, he felt a sense of familiarity. However, he no longer had the energy to think about it.
After confirming that the hallway was safe, Ye Zichen's tense nerves finally relaxed.
His tense nerves relaxed slightly, and exhaustion surged into his heart like a tidal wave. Ye Zichen took out some wood from his spatial ring and started a bonfire, then leaned against the corner of the wall and sat down. While he felt tired, his eyelids also became heavy.
This wasn't good news for Ye Zichen. He knew very well that no matter how exhausted he was, this wasn't the time to rest.
At that moment, Ye Zichen, who still had a sliver of consciousness, saw a blur before his eyes.
The blur had stopped in front of his bonfire.
He did his best to wake himself up, but tiredness washed over him like a tidal wave. It destroyed his last bit of willpower, and he fell into a deep slumber.
Just before he fell asleep again, he saw a pair of pitch-black warlock boots slowly approach him.

… …
Chaos City.
Ever since Chaos City was founded, the Upheaval Alliance had always been wary of the Outside. Practically all of the Alliance's higher-ups had their sights set on the Outside.
Countless vanguard squads had scouted the Outside, but unfortunately, aside from the one they'd killed, the Upheaval Alliance hadn't received any further information.
The video Su Liu 'er had criticized had become the only thing they knew about the Outside.
Sitting in the tall tower, Xiao Yumei held the video she brought back before. She didn't know how many times she'd watched this video, and the technical department had done countless data analysis on the Yuan Breaking Beast in the video.
The results were just as accurate as Su Liu 'er's analysis. If they wanted to know the Aura-Breaking Beasts' true strength, they couldn't make an accurate judgment based on this video alone.
During this time, the emperors of the Divine Mountains had paid a visit, and they'd all seen the video.
Their answers were the same!
Xiao Yumei's eyes flashed with exhaustion. In order to share Ye Zichen's burden, she'd taken the initiative to manage the Upheaval Alliance.
As the vice alliance head, she had far too many things to handle. She had to keep track of the geniuses the Yao and Gods had sent into the Divine Artifact. Zuo Mo and Old Lord Taishang had to keep up with their pill refinement and construction. The Aura-Breaking Beasts were something she couldn't let go of, and she had to comfort the elemental spirits on the top floor.
。
"He's been gone for half a month. Why isn't he back yet?"
Xiao Yumei looked up at the blue sky outside the tower, her words brimming with longing for Ye Zichen.
It wasn't that she wanted Ye Zichen to come back and share her burdens. All she needed was a shoulder to lean on whenever she felt tired.
She'd thought that Ye Zichen's trip to the Ancient Race would take at least a few days, or at most half a month.
Who would've thought that as soon as he left, there would be no news of him.
She silently glanced at her phone, then opened her chat window with Ye Zichen. Xiao Yumei's messages were all over the screen, but they were like stones sinking into the ocean. She received no response at all.
Managing the company in the Modern Realm had been tiring, but now …..
She wanted to return to the Modern Realm and manage the company. She didn't want to spend her days in this chaotic world, burdened by exhaustion.
"I really don't know when I'll be able to rest."
Xiao Yumei quietly set her phone aside and pinched her temples. She wanted to relax, but at that moment …..
The sound of something piercing through the air rang out outside the tower. Xiao Yumei had just closed her eyes, but when she opened them, she saw Xiao Yan hurriedly rush into the hall.
"Big Sister!"
"Vice Alliance Head!" Xiao Yumei knit her brows.
