Entering the Earth Fissure
"You can't do that!" Liu Mengyan immediately shook her head and rejected Chu Xingyun's suggestion.
She said, "The meteorite is the source of the Calamity Aura. The closer you get, the denser the Calamity Aura. The Calamity Aura in the deepest part of the fissure is as dense as the sea. Even the past Sect Masters of the Ancient Star Sect couldn't get close. If you go deep into the fissure, you will definitely die."
Liu Mengyan's words were not just for show.
It had been several thousand years since the meteorite fell into this place. In such a long time, there were very few people who could get close to the meteorite, let alone unravel its mysteries.
Chu Xingyun's cultivation was only at the third layer of the Sky Spirit Realm, so how could Liu Mengyan let him take the risk?
Seeing Liu Mengyan so worried, Chu Xingyun felt a trace of warmth in his heart. He took a few steps forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Liu Mengyan, looking straight at the fissure in front of them.
Suddenly, Chu Xingyun gripped the Black Hole Heavy Sword in his hand and swung it out, releasing a gravitational force.
Whoosh!
Strong winds howled as the Calamity Aura that came out of the fissure was isolated by the gravitational force before it could even get close to Chu Xingyun. With Chu Xingyun as the center, a five meter radius around him turned into a vacuum. Not even a trace of the Calamity Aura could penetrate it.
"This …" Liu Mengyan's eyes widened. This was the first time she had seen a power that could ignore the Calamity Aura.
"The gravitational force I control can easily isolate the Calamity Aura. As long as the Calamity Aura cannot touch my body, I can escape unscathed." Chu Xingyun put away his sword. The gravitational force came from the Black Hole Heavy Sword, so it was not affected by any power. The Calamity Aura could not corrode it either.
From Chu Xingyun's words, Liu Mengyan had some understanding of his layout. She knew that if she was unable to break free from the stone lock and leave Meteorite Abyss, it was very likely that Chu Xingyun's painstaking efforts would be wasted.
After pondering for a moment, Liu Mengyan nodded, "Since you're so determined, Yun'er, I won't stop you. However, before you enter the crevice, you must first learn this technique."
As she spoke, Liu Mengyan's eyes narrowed slightly. A strange light bloomed and sank into Chu Xingyun's forehead.
At that moment, Chu Xingyun immediately felt his head sink. Following that, a technique appeared and was deeply imprinted in the depths of his mind, never to be forgotten.
"In the past eighteen years, I have endured the corrosion of the Calamity Aura day and night. As time passed, I created this technique. As long as I use it, I can absorb the Calamity Aura and refine my body. However, the power of this technique is limited. If there is too much Calamity Aura, it will be difficult for it to be effective," Liu Mengyan said in a low voice, still worried about Chu Xingyun's safety.
"I understand!" Chu Xingyun opened his eyes. In that short moment, he had comprehended the essence of this technique.
Stepping out, Chu Xingyun stood in the air above the crevice. He could clearly sense the power of the Calamity Aura. It was especially vast and boundless, making him feel insignificant.
"Be careful. If you encounter any danger, immediately return!" Liu Mengyan warned. Although Chu Xingyun could control gravity and learn a technique, this was still not enough to make Liu Mengyan feel completely at ease.
Chu Xingyun gave Liu Mengyan a reassuring look before slowly looking away. He stared at the gloomy crevice, and with a leap, he suddenly vanished.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
At this time, Chu Xingyun had entered the fissure. He was surrounded by the berserk aura of disaster. It was as vast as the sea, and it let out a miserable howl like that of a demon.
"A meteor actually contains so much Calamity Aura. This is truly unimaginable," Chu Xingyun thought to himself as he suddenly sped up, leaving behind a long blur in the air.
An invisible force of gravity surrounded him, isolating most of the Calamity Aura. However, a small portion of it covered his skin and slowly seeped into his flesh and meridians.
Chu Xingyun had already learned a technique, so not only was a small portion of the Calamity Aura unable to corrode his body, it would even be absorbed by him and completely refined, tempering his body.
Ever since Chu Xingyun had condensed the Glass Body, he had encountered a bottleneck in the cultivation of the Life Cutting Method of the Body Tempering. He had been unable to break through to the next level.
Right now, using the Calamity Aura to temper his body was not very effective, but Chu Xingyun did not want to miss out on it.
"According to the Life Cutting Method of the Body Tempering, after breaking through the Glass Body, I'll be able to condense the Diamond Body. I'll be able to ignore the Yang Energy and dominate the Heaven Spirit Realm," Chu Xingyun murmured. He was rather fascinated by this level.
After seeing the monstrous geniuses of the various sects, he deeply felt that he was not strong enough. If he faced any one of them, he could only protect himself. It was very difficult for him to win.
Moreover, the Six Sect Grand Competition held great significance. Every monstrous genius would have a hidden trump card, and their strength was unpredictable. Chu Xingyun had to use all his time to cultivate. Only then would he be able to achieve anything.
As his speed gradually increased, Chu Xingyun went deeper into the crack.
At this moment, the Calamity Aura was so dense that it had already turned into liquid. The moment it came into contact with Chu Xingyun's body, sizzling sounds could be heard. Even his Spirit Energy seemed to burn and gradually turned into nothingness.
The Calamity Aura here was extremely terrifying. Even if he could absorb it, it would greatly affect his body.
"There's light up ahead!" Chu Xingyun circulated the force of gravity with all his strength. As he looked around, he actually saw a ray of light in the darkness ahead. It was very weak, but it was not afraid of the Calamity Aura's corrosion.
Chu Xingyun increased his speed to the limit. His body flashed as he rushed towards the light.
When he was a hundred meters deep, the Calamity Aura around him became even denser. It could be said that it was like a tidal wave. The terrifying power pressed down on Chu Xingyun's body, making it difficult for him to breathe normally.
"Without the protection of gravity, even a Yin-Yang Realm expert would be instantly annihilated by the Calamity Aura." Chu Xingyun secretly judged. Just as he was about to continue forward, his gaze suddenly froze.
A huge meteorite with a diameter of more than a hundred meters appeared in front of Chu Xingyun's eyes. The meteorite was in the shape of a sphere. Its surface was cratered, and its aura was ancient. Before Chu Xingyun could get closer, he felt as if an inexplicable power had surged out and blocked his path.
"This should be the meteorite." Chu Xingyun carefully examined it. Finally, his eyes focused on one point.
That was the center of the meteorite.
A sparkling jade bead about the size of a fist was embedded in the meteorite. It was moon-white, and its surface was covered in mysterious inscriptions. The light that Chu Xingyun saw just now was emitted by this jade bead.
What surprised Chu Xingyun even more was that the sparkling jade bead was actually beating slightly, just like a human heart!
"Could the faint connection that mother spoke of come from this sparkling jade bead?" This thought flashed through Chu Xingyun's mind. Immediately, he gritted his teeth and endured the corrosion of the Calamity Aura as he continued forward a hundred meters.
At this moment, he was only a hundred meters away from the sparkling jade bead.
Chu Xingyun could clearly see every mysterious inscription on the jade bead. However, these inscriptions were too complicated and obscure. He could not see through them at all. However, he was familiar with the two strands of golden aura that seeped out of the jade bead.
