"The inner universe!" In the valley, Chen Zong took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. His Qi was extremely long, and the breath he exhaled was like a cloud of smoke. As it changed, it was like a thunderbolt of sword light that crossed the sky, leaving a sword mark in the air of the valley.
However, it was just a trace that disappeared in the blink of an eye. This made Chen Zong secretly astonished. If he were in the outer universe, he would be able to tear a crack in space by using his breath to form a sword. How could it be just a faint trace that quickly disappeared?
The inner universe … Well, for the time being, this place was the inner universe. It was indeed much stronger than the outer universe.
The gravity was at least ten times stronger, and the strength of space was also many times stronger.
Chen Zong used his fingers like a sword and directly cut through the void. If he was in the outer universe, this attack would be enough to completely tear the space apart. It would be as easy as a sharp blade tearing through thin paper. However, it was very difficult here. It only left a mark like a pen, and it was a mark that dissipated very quickly.
From this point, it was enough to see the difference in the strength of space between the outer universe and the inner universe.
As someone who had comprehended and mastered the Great Path of Space Origin, Chen Zong felt it more clearly. Not only did the strength of space increase, but there were also enhancements in other aspects. It was a qualitative change.
Not only space, but time was also different. Chen Zong tried to use the Flowing Breath of Time magic. It was indeed possible to use it, but it consumed more than ten times more power than in the outer universe. Moreover, it was slightly slower when it was launched.
The slight difference in time was difficult to see, but for a real master, a slight difference in time was enough to change the outcome of a battle, or even life and death.
After adapting to it, Chen Zong stepped out of the valley. His speed was very fast, but compared to when he was in the outer universe, it was many times slower.
"If this is really the inner universe, then it is a world where masters gather." Chen Zong muttered to himself as he stepped out of the valley. There was a faint excitement on his face, and he was secretly excited.
A world where masters gather!
This was the world he yearned for.
It was lonely at the top!
Although Chen Zong had yet to reach the peak of the outer universe, he still considered himself to be invincible among his peers.
At least in the outer universe, he wouldn't be able to find a worthy opponent among his peers.
Cultivators of the same generation as him, if they could cultivate to the sixth realm, that would be heaven-defying. As for the seventh realm, that was almost impossible. Even if there were exceptions and someone really cultivated to the seventh realm, they would only have just entered the seventh realm and would not be his opponent at all.
However, the inner universe was different.
If a cultivator from the outer universe or the mesosphere wanted to enter the inner universe, they had to be at least Level-7. Of course, this didn't mean that the cultivators in the inner universe had to be at least Level-7 Emperor-level. For example, the great undead world in the mesosphere.
Without the strength of a Sixth Realm emperor, cultivators from the outerverse could forget about entering. Even if they could, they would find it difficult to withstand the pressure of the will of death and the corrosion of the death aura. However, in the outerverse, the weakest was a Fourth Realm cultivator, which was far inferior to a Sixth Realm cultivator.
However, the Fourth Realm was born and raised here.
As for the inner universe, according to the records, there were no ordinary people there. At the very least, they were equivalent to the Fifth Realms in the outer universe.
Fifth Realm
The Fifth Realm was the lowest level in the inner universe. Those who had some success in cultivation would be at the Sixth Realm, and those who were better would be at the Seventh Realm. It could be said that there were a lot of Level-7 cultivators in the inner universe.
Chen Zong was looking forward to this.
After stepping out of the valley, Chen Zong saw a forest of towering ancient trees growing lush and verdant. These ancient trees were at least a hundred meters tall. The trunks were thick, and the bark was dark and rough. The leaves were the size of a palm and were black all over. They looked very thick and were covered with black veins.
Chen Zong didn't recognize what kind of tree it was. He had never seen it before. After looking at it for a while, he didn't pay much attention to it because it was just a very ordinary tree in the inner universe.
Of course, although it was ordinary, it would be extraordinary if it was placed in the outer universe.
His figure flashed, and like a flash of sword light, he shuttled through the ancient forest and flew out.
It was quiet all around. Suddenly, a black light silently flew out from a hidden hole in a big tree. Its speed was extremely fast and shocking. In just a moment, it flew toward Chen Zong, making Chen Zong feel a trace of fear and threat.
Chen Zong's eyes focused, and he immediately drew his sword. The sword light broke through the air in an instant and flashed by. The sword technique was exquisite and mysterious, like a heavenly steed soaring across the sky. Even though the black light was extremely fast, and as Chen Zong drew his sword, his body also twisted in an instant. It was extremely fast and very natural, and the angle was extremely strange and tricky.
However, Chen Zong's expression didn't change. Casually, he used the Heavenly Will Sword freely as if he had practiced it thousands of times. They cooperated very well and directly met the attack.
It felt as if the black light had taken the initiative to collide with the tip of Chen Zong's sword. At the moment of contact, Chen Zong's expression changed slightly.
The sword in his hand was like an extension of his fingers, connected by blood. Therefore, the touch of the tip of the sword was the same as the touch of his fingertips. The softness, the hardness, the coldness, and the heat were incomparably clear.
Therefore, Chen Zong knew that the black light was very tough. It was astonishingly tough.
His wrist suddenly trembled, and a burst of power burst out. The power penetrated the tip of the sword and instantly broke through the layer of toughness. It drove straight in and then penetrated.
The black light disappeared, and a body appeared. It was a strange snake. It was completely black and about half a meter long. Although it was called a snake, it looked more like a long worm. There were countless obscure patterns on its body.
After observing it for a while, Chen Zong threw the strange snake far away. After all, this strange snake's vitality was astonishing. Chen Zong also showed mercy and didn't kill it directly. He did so because he was wary of the black mark. As for keeping it, although its body was very tough, it was still only a Sixth Realm. However, a normal Sixth Realm cultivator wouldn't be able to do anything to this strange snake. It was just that it was useless against him.
After that, Chen Zong was attacked by exotic beasts from time to time. They weren't weak, and Chen Zong could be sure of one thing. Even if they were at the same level, the exotic beasts here were stronger than those in the outer universe. This was a difference brought about by the environment.
Tempered into steel!
Steel of the same size or weight, but steel that hadn't been tempered and purified would always be inferior to steel that had been meticulously tempered and purified.
After stepping out of the ancient forest, Chen Zong saw a field. Stalks of dark green grass grew crazily, and they were all about a meter tall. When the wind blew, it was as if waves were being pushed up one after another. It was like a surging tide, and there was a rustling sound.
The rustling sound was like music, adding a sense of danger to the quietness of the place.
It was as if something terrifying was lurking in the grass that was more than a meter tall. It was extremely dangerous.
Chen Zong stopped and focused his gaze. However, he could only see the wave-like grass moving with the wind like waves. It was difficult to see anything else, and he could only hear the rustling sound in his ears.
He spread out his divine consciousness and entered the field. It seeped between the stalks of green grass, but he didn't discover anything. However, there was still a lingering sense of danger in his heart, and it was about to erupt.
After thinking about it, Chen Zong rose into the air and turned into a streak of sword light, quickly sweeping across the field.
It was much more difficult to fly here than in the outer universe, and the consumption of power was much higher.
When Chen Zong flew more than ten thousand meters, a sudden change occurred. A black shadow suddenly shot up from under the green grass and broke through the air in an instant. It was like a long whip that was suddenly thrown out by a huge force. It carried an astonishing power and turned into a black phantom, directly swinging toward Chen Zong.
This swing was so powerful that it seemed to be able to crack the sky. It carried an astonishing and incomparably dark power, which made Chen Zong's expression change slightly.
Sure enough, there was some kind of danger lurking in the field. Previously, his divine consciousness couldn't detect it. It was only because of his well-tempered perception that he sensed the existence of danger. Now, it finally appeared.
Chen Zong's expression was slightly dignified, but he wasn't afraid at all. His figure flashed, and he directly dodged the attack and continued to fly forward.
In such a strange place, it was best not to fight first to avoid more accidents.
However, the whip-like black shadow didn't intend to let Chen Zong go. In bursts of sharp sounds, it quickly chased after him like a maggot in a tarsal bone. It seemed that it wouldn't give up until it caught up with Chen Zong.
Chen Zong's speed was very fast. With a burst of power, he immediately got rid of the black shadow. Immediately, a second black shadow broke through the air and blasted toward Chen Zong from the front, directly intercepting him.
It was a pincer attack from the front and back.
Chen Zong's figure flashed again, and he dodged again. A third black shadow appeared and attacked again, and then a fourth.
There was a black shadow bombarding him from all directions. Chen Zong immediately felt threatened.
Suddenly, the sword light flashed, and immediately cut through it. The moment it cut through, Chen Zong's expression couldn't help but change. The touch told him that this thing was extremely tough, and he had to use another burst of power. The Heavenly Will Sword trembled slightly, and a sharp light flashed across the sword, and then it was cut in half.
When a black shadow was cut apart, an extremely sharp and terrifying voice suddenly rang out from the plains. It transformed into an invisible sound wave that was like an invisible arrow that had left the bow. It pierced through the air and shot out, causing Chen Zong's expression to involuntarily change as he felt a great sense of danger.
The cut of Chen Zong's sword was like poking a hornet's nest. Accompanied by a terrible sharp sound, the field shook, as if there were ten thousand beasts galloping. In the next moment, the tough grass was broken, as if it was directly smashed by something. A large number of black shadows suddenly broke out of the ground and rushed to the sky.
In a flash, there were hundreds of black shadows, each as thick as a person, carrying a terrible power. They all blasted toward Chen Zong in the sky, and Chen Zong's expression changed greatly.
With his powerful eyesight, Chen Zong was able to clearly see that the black shadow was a tentacle. It was pitch-black, extremely tough and elastic, and its surface was covered with lumps. It was extremely terrifying. A single tentacle wasn't much of a threat to him, but dozens of tentacles that erupted in an instant were extremely terrifying.
