Chapter 822: Crossing the Void (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

However, behind the Dragon Elephant Stone Stele, there was no one, nor were there any creatures, which somewhat stirred Chen Fei’s heart.

If behind this stone stele, there truly was a higher-level world, could this place become a retreat for the Primordial Sword Sect when the Boundless Sea truly became impassable?

Or, regardless of retreat or not, if there was a higher-level world beyond, then the mid-level of the future Sun Moon Realm would no longer be the endpoint of Chen Fei’s martial path.

Chen Fei never doubted whether he could cultivate to the Sun Moon Realm; what he lacked now was only time.

When the future of martial arts reached an impasse, moving to another, stronger world was almost a necessary choice.

The altar of the Thousand Feathers Alliance, Chen Fei decided to leave it here, with some such thoughts in mind.

A illusion figure appeared beside Chen Fei, who separated a fragment of his soul and placed it within the illusion, thus extending its existence.

The illusion took a step and entered into the Dragon Elephant Stone Stele.

As if a flash of light passed by, Chen Fei’s illusion saw the void; indeed, this teleportation array traversed the void, leaving behind the world of the Boundless Sea.

The next moment, Chen Fei’s illusion once again felt the sensation of the ground beneath, but before experiencing any other feelings, a tremendous force descended upon his entire body.

Chen Fei’s illusion couldn’t even hold on for a moment and collapsed instantly.

Chen Fei was startled. After the illusion was shattered, the remaining soul fragments floated in the air. He glanced around but found no enemies or attacks.

However, in the next moment, even the soul fragments couldn’t withstand the surrounding force and were crushed into a burst of spiritual light.

Chen Fei opened his eyes, feeling uncertain and reflecting on what had just happened. Gradually, his mind calmed down.

It wasn’t a sudden attack; rather, the sudden force seemed more like a pressure inherent to that world itself.

Illusions had no attacking power; aside from their lifelike appearance, they were fragile and easily broken.

“If that world’s normal state is like this, then entering it below the Aperture Tempering realm would likely turn one into a bloody mist. Only those at the Aperture Tempering realm could barely survive, but their strength would probably be no different from ordinary people.”

Chen Fei continued to summon another illusion and sent it into the Dragon Elephant Stone Stele.

Similar to before, as soon as it appeared there, it could only absorb a bit of the world’s essence before bursting into spiritual light. The soul fragments persisted for a moment longer before meeting the same fate.

Chen Fei paid no heed and continued summoning illusions to enter, gradually gathering more information.

After the sixth illusion was crushed into spiritual light, Chen Fei paused.

It wasn’t that Chen Fei’s soul couldn’t bear it; simply separating soul fragments no longer posed any pressure to him.

The reason Chen Fei stopped was that the power of the Dragon Elephant Stone Stele was weakening. If they continued to teleport like this, the stele would likely exhaust its power after another three or four times.

To attempt another teleportation, they would need to wait for the stele to accumulate energy, much like the altar of the Thousand Feathers Alliance.

Chen Fei pondered deeply. There were indeed no people on the other side, and no other dangers were detected.

However, stepping into a completely new world like this still carried some risk.

After thinking for a moment, the clone within the Thousand Geese City slowly dissipated and reformed beside Chen Fei.

With the clone present, Chen Fei could no longer employ the Water Source Shadow Technique to instantly return to the Sacred City. Yet compared to entering another unknown world, the Central Continent was not yet so dangerous.

The clone took a step forward, entering into the Dragon Elephant Stone Stele.

This clone possessed the initial stage of the Mountain Sea Realm. Compared to the illusions, it could see more clearly the fleeting void.

A layer of spiritual light enveloped Chen Fei’s clone’s body. He keenly sensed the terrifying power emanating from the void, but soon enough, both of Chen Fei’s feet were firmly planted on the ground.

Chen Fei’s back slightly curved. Despite being mentally prepared, the pressure here still surprised him.

It wasn’t just the physical pressure; even the soul of his current clone felt an immense force continuously squeezing its soul fragments.

“The rules of this world are unexpectedly harsh!”

After personally experiencing the pressure of this world, Chen Fei realized that his previous optimism about the Aperture Tempering realm being like an ordinary person here was too optimistic.

An Aperture Tempering realm cultivator newly arrived here would need at least several months to adapt before being comparable to an ordinary person. Otherwise, they would struggle even with basic tasks like walking or running.

“lean still fly, but the materials in this world are incredibly tough. Breaking mountains and shattering seas won’t be so easy.”

Chen Fei’s body levitated slightly, gradually familiarizing himself with the rules of this world. It wasn’t just about the physical aspects; he also noticed that he could manipulate less of the world’s essence.

This was the rule or suppression of this world.

However, the spiritual energy here was astonishingly pure. In Chen Fei’s perception, the surrounding spiritual energy felt like crushed high-grade elemental stones freely permeating every direction.

In such a cultivation environment, with the same martial aptitude, while one might only reach the Aperture Tempering realm in the Boundless Sea, here, the difficulty of breaking through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm would be reduced several times.

However, the Aperture Tempering realm here was akin to the state of an ordinary person; even reaching the Combined Aperture Tempering realm would only offer marginal improvement.

Only by cultivating to the Mountain Sea Realm did one likely become noteworthy in this world.

“With such spiritual energy, such pressure, and such rules, it’s no wonder higher realms can be born!”

Suppression, to a certain extent, also served as a catalyst. It was the stricter rules of the world that provided the space for stronger realms to evolve.

Chen Fei’s clone flew forward, finally stopping at the edge of a cliff, astonished by what lay ahead.

Before them wasn’t just a cliff; there were countless spatial rifts sweeping through, dividing this mountain peak from the outside world.

Chen Fei glanced back at the collapsed buildings behind him.

Once, a great battle had occurred here. Now, it lay in ruins, encapsulated by these spatial rifts!

“I can let my true self come in… No, wait!”

Chen Fei’s clone shook violently in the sea of consciousness, and the Xuanyuan Sword trembled intensely. The world before Chen Fei’s clone suddenly changed drastically.

The distant green mountains and rivers faded rapidly from view, replaced in the blink of an eye by a vast expanse of barren land stretching a thousand miles before Chen Fei’s eyes.

The ground was parched and cracked, and the distant collapsed buildings appeared as decayed wood, full of scars.

If one were to approach closely, they would notice thin maggots crawling wantonly through the rotten wood.

Chen Fei’s clone instinctively looked up and saw a huge blood-red eyeball staring fixedly at him, the distance between them only a finger’s width.

Distorted tendrils of flesh around the eyeball swayed in the wind, brushing against Chen Fei’s face.
