Shatter!
Cracks appeared madly, like a mirror that had been smashed by a great force. It triggered a chain reaction that directly covered a radius of over a dozen meters. Countless streams of turbulence spread out, carrying with them a terrifying might as they violently destroyed everything.
In the next moment, a gloomy light rapidly shot out from within. Countless forces landed on the light, causing it to rapidly fade. When the light had completely dispersed, a figure with extremely tattered robes appeared, quickly escaping from the spatial crack that was over a dozen meters wide.
This figure was the gloomy old man who had chased after Chen Zong earlier. He was a fifth realm King Realm expert.
"Dammit, dammit! Damned sword cultivator, I'm going to kill you!" The gloomy old man roared at the sky. His voice was filled with extreme grief and indignation, as well as anger and murderous intent that could not be washed away by the waters of a great river.
Who would have thought that chasing after a fourth realm Sword Cultivator would result in such an outcome? He had lost his left forearm, directly crushed into nothingness by the turbulence of space. If it were not for the treasure he had obtained by chance earlier to protect himself, he probably would have died in the turbulence of space.
But now, that treasure had exhausted all its power and was completely shattered. One had to know that he had obtained this treasure by chance when he was in the fourth level. It had protected him many times and saved him from danger many times. Now, it had exhausted all its power and was completely shattered.
He had lost a protective treasure as a result.
Losing an arm and losing a protective treasure was an indescribable loss. However, the fourth realm cultivator had already escaped. Even his aura could not be tracked down due to the turbulence of space.
Fury!
Extreme fury!
… …
Chen Zong erupted with extreme speed, madly flying away, constantly distancing himself.
Earlier, he had unleashed the Hundred Intents of the Heart with all his strength, then slashed out a hundred times in the blink of an eye. Although the hundred swords of the Rising Dragon Sword Technique, which had been strengthened by the fourth level of the Sword Sharpening Technique, did not all merge into one, a small portion of its power had been superimposed, reaching a terrifying level.
Such tyrannical power was in no way inferior to the power of the World's Descent sword technique. In addition, the Rising Dragon Sword Technique was a sword technique based on the Way of Space. It was easier to create spatial cracks in such a relatively weak space, and then draw it in.
Pulling one hair and affecting the whole body, coupled with a bit of luck, Chen Zong really managed to create a spatial crack. It expanded and covered the fifth realm King Realm expert.
After breaking through to the fourth realm, Chen Zong's mental strength had become much stronger. When he unleashed the Hundred Intents of the Heart again, he could maintain it for a longer time, from the original twenty breaths, to thirty breaths.
Chen Zong's outburst lasted for less than ten breaths of time before it ended. He did not exhaust his mental strength, nor did he feel extremely weak. He displayed a terrifying swordsmanship and at the same time, avoided the opponent's attack and took the opportunity to escape.
Although he did not know whether the King Realm expert was dead or not, Chen Zong did not feel a sense of crisis. Even if the King Realm expert was not dead, he should have given up, or it would be difficult for him to catch up with him.
After that, Chen Zong's movements became faster and more secretive. Even if he encountered bandits, he would try to avoid them as much as possible, and if he really could not avoid them, he would kill them.
Even so, bandits died one after another under Chen Zong's sword. Their Souls and vitality were reduced to nutrients for the black mark and the mysterious seed, respectively.
Now, Chen Zong had discovered that he could control the black mark and the mysterious seed to a certain extent. The so-called "to a certain extent" referred to the ability to actively choose whether to devour Souls and vitality to avoid being discovered by irrelevant people and causing unnecessary trouble.
However, Chen Zong could not actively mobilize the power of the black mark and the mysterious seed.
In short, Chen Zong could now actively control whether or not the black mark and the mysterious seed devoured Souls and vitality. Other than that, he could not do anything else to interfere.
But through this, Chen Zong could be sure that the black mark and the mysterious seed had their own consciousness. They did not necessarily have intelligence, but they definitely had their own consciousness. It was just that for some reason, they were not willing to communicate with him.
Puzzled!
Extremely puzzled.
Time after time, Chen Zong's spirit became stronger and stronger, and the mysterious seed's vitality became more vigorous. The sprout actually grew bigger, and the power it contained became more vigorous.
Although the Flying Fire Territory continued to chase after Chen Zong, they did not succeed in catching up to him. As a result, Chen Zong left the territory of the Flying Fire Territory and fled into the Horizontal Light Territory. This was not a lower territory, but one of the six middle territories.
Although the strongest of the Eighteen Chaos Territories was the fifth level, there were still differences in strength among the fifth level. The stronger fifth level could even easily kill the weaker fifth level. The gap between the fifth level and the fifth level was very shocking.
This was especially true for the experts on the Universe God King List. Each of them was extremely powerful, and they could kill ordinary fifth level experts like killing chickens.
The fifth level experts in the upper three territories were usually the strongest. The fifth level experts in the middle three territories were relatively weaker, but this was not absolute.
Time flew. In the blink of an eye, a few years had passed. Chen Zong also entered the Horizontal Light Territory. Chen Zong's movements were more secretive, and his aura was more restrained. This was because he had a breakthrough in the Dao of Space.
Great success!
Originally, it would take many years of comprehension and cultivation to reach great success. But as the black mark continued to devour Souls and feed back pure energy to Chen Zong, Chen Zong's spirit became stronger and more tyrannical. The benefits were also very obvious. Chen Zong's thinking speed was faster, his body was stronger, and his endurance was more abundant. In addition, it also increased Chen Zong's cultivation speed and his comprehension efficiency.
For Chen Zong's level of comprehension, any increase in comprehension was very rare and shocking.
With the combination of the two, coupled with the fact that Chen Zong had been drifting in the turbulent space for a long time and had experienced countless dangers, he had a clearer and more intuitive understanding of the mysteries of space. If Chen Zong was given enough time to constantly analyze the mysteries of space and comprehend his own experiences, he would be able to greatly improve his attainments in the Dao of Space.
Then Chen Zong obtained a Space Deity Crystal. Although it was not big, it contained pure Space Deity Energy. Other than that, it was also supplemented by the Heart Sutra.
The combination of various factors led to Chen Zong's astonishing improvement in the Dao of Space.
Great success!
The Space Dao Seal had reached great success. It had already caught up with the Dao of Heart, the Dao of World, and Chen Zong's most fundamental Dao of the Sword. Now, only the Time Dao Seal was still at the beginner level.
In fact, compared to the Dao of Space, the Dao of Time was more profound. It was also more difficult to comprehend and more illusory. Even with Chen Zong's astonishing comprehension and the assistance of the Heart Sutra, it was not easy to raise the Dao of Time without sufficient external help.
The Space Dao Seal's great success allowed Chen Zong to move more nimbly and freely in the Chaos Territory. If he wanted to escape, he could avoid many bandits.
It was a pity that Chen Zong did not come across any more treasures like Space Deity Crystals. Otherwise, it would be of great help to his comprehension of the Dao of Space.
Time passed. Chen Zong continued to escape. Relying on his superb perception and attainments in the Dao of Space, he crossed one territory after another and entered the Evil Dragon Territory, one of the upper three territories.
As one of the upper three territories, the Evil Dragon Territory's overall strength was undoubtedly very strong. Not only did it have hundreds of Fifth Realm King-level experts, but it also had more than a thousand Fourth Realm experts.
This number was very shocking. It was enough to surpass many Emperor-level forces. For example, the Nine Heavens Imperial Court only had slightly more than a hundred Fifth Realm King-level experts.
Relying on his superb perception, Chen Zong sensed traces of astonishing aura fluctuations coming from afar. There were traces of extremely sharp aura fluctuations mixed in. Chen Zong knew that it was Sword Qi.
Someone was fighting. There were even sword cultivators among them.
Who was fighting?
Chen Zong thought for a moment and decided to go take a look. This was because Chen Zong had already discovered that it was not easy for him to cross the Chaos Territory. Other than the danger, Chen Zong was not familiar with this place. It was easy for him to get lost.
The Chaos Territory was not small at all. If one was unfamiliar with it, it was very normal to get lost. For example, Chen Zong felt that he had already been in the Chaos Territory for more than ten years.
If this continued, Chen Zong was not very confident that he could cross the Chaos Territory within a hundred years.
Now that he had discovered a battle, there might be other outsiders. Perhaps he could take a look and ask about the situation.
Not long after, Chen Zong arrived at the battle site. His aura was restrained and no one else noticed him.
On one side of the battle were bandits. There were as many as seven of them. One of the bandits was abnormally strong. His arms were crossed in front of his chest. His face was so fierce that it could stop children from crying at night. His eyes were extremely indifferent as he stared at the people surrounded by the seven bandits.
There were two people, one male and one female. Both of them looked young. The Sword Qi was emitted from their bodies. It was extremely pure and powerful. It was extremely shocking.
Although there were only two of them, their strength was extremely terrifying. They were both in the Fourth Realm Greater Mastery. Their swordsmanship was superb. They were outnumbered and blocked the attacks of the seven Fourth Realm bandits. It should be known that among the seven bandits, two were in the Perfection Realm and five were in the Greater Mastery Realm.
Chen Zong did not move. This was because the extremely strong and fierce-looking bandit was emitting an extremely terrifying aura. It gave him an indescribable sense of danger.
A strong opponent!
Compared to the one-eyed youth that he had killed before, this was a formidable opponent that was even more terrifying.
"Back down." Suddenly, the tower-like bandit spoke. His voice was buzzing like the roar of a drum that reverberated in all directions. A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his indifferent eyes. "As expected of a disciple of Taihao Mountain. Your swordsmanship is indeed superb. You can actually fight against a stronger opponent as the weak."
As the bandit's voice rang out, the seven bandits immediately retreated. However, they did not leave. Instead, they formed a circle and surrounded the young man and woman to prevent them from escaping.
The bandit's huge body moved. As soon as he moved, an extremely shocking wave of power spread out. It was as if it could crush everything in all directions.
On the other side, Chen Zong's eyes flashed as he stared at the two sword cultivators.
A disciple of Taihao Mountain!
