Chapter 1571 A Strange Space!
“Gurgle, gurgle…”
In the depths of the river, undercurrents surged.
Staring at the big fish, Fang Qiu quickly chased after it to the bottom of the river.
He wanted to see if there was anything hidden under the river. This big fish was the only living creature that could attack people he had seen in this relic.
Like the guardian beast of the Heaven Treasure outside, the big fish was probably protecting some treasures hidden at the bottom of the river.
Anyway, he didn’t find anything up there. Since many people had been to He Gaoming’s place, he might as well come down alone to explore the area.
The most important thing was…
From this river, the situation beneath the clouds could be seen.
Based on this alone, Fang Qiu could conclude that this river was not simple.
“Uh?”
Fang Qiu chased for a long time.
He could see the big fish not far away before him. Their distance had been shortened or lengthened. Fang Qiu had been diving rapidly.
“Have I dived for a hundred meters?”
Fang Qiu suddenly found something wrong.
No river could be this deep.
He immediately turned to look back.
Fang Qiu could see the deep and serene water. In these water flows, he saw a dazzling light ball like a scorching sun hanging in the sky.
Besides…
This light ball fluctuated according to the water waves.
“But there’s no sun outside. What’s going on?”
Fang Qiu wondered.
Fang Qiu looked away and turned around, ready to continue to chase the big fish.
However…
When he turned around…
Everything before him had changed.
In the end…
He reached the bottom of the river.
He saw the bottom of the river: a large stretch of dazzling light. Looking back, he saw a shining ball similar to a burning sun. It seemed to be a reflection image.
Half of the big fish’s body had gone into the white light at that moment, leaving only half of its tail.
With a sudden stretch…
Fang Qiu grabbed the tail of the big fish.
Just then…
The fishtail twisted violently.
An attractive force suddenly burst out from the white light at the bottom of the river. Before Fang Qiu could react, the force sucked Fang Qiu in like a black hole.
Fang Qiu was greatly shocked.
Just as he was about to control his body and struggle out…
He found his body was out of control. Worse still, he could no longer activate his internal Qi.
Afterward…
“Buzz!”
All of a sudden, he felt like he was falling rapidly.
Fang Qiu felt like he had fallen from a hundred meters above the ground. His heart skipped a beat.
After a while…
“Boom!”
With a thud, he landed on something.
Fang Qiu no longer felt he was falling rapidly. Instead, he thought he had landed on the ground. At the same time, he could move his body and activate his internal Qi.
Everything seemed to have returned to normal.
However, everything around him had changed completely.
Fang Qiu stood up.
On high alert, he looked around.
This world was covered by a vast expanse of whiteness stretching to infinity. A hazy white mist, seemingly out of a fairyland, enveloped him.
“Whoosh, whoosh…”
A voice came from behind.
Fang Qiu abruptly turned his head and looked over.
And he saw…
The big fish was swimming happily in the white fog as if it didn’t need water. It slightly swung its tail and immediately disappeared into the white fog. Before leaving, it glanced at Fang Qiu as if saying, “I’m not playing with you anymore!”
“What is this place?”
Fang Qiu frowned tightly, stepped forward with a puzzled look, and walked around in this space.
He found that…
There was no Qi of Heaven and Earth in this space.
The air was so clean and pure that he could hardly believe it.
Fortunately…
The big fish ran away.
At present, there seemed nothing in this space that would attach people. Thus, he just needed to find the exit and leave this place.
After he took a few steps…
Fang Qiu looked down.
He found a stone sculpture carved with a strange pattern under his feet. A lot of gems were inlaid on it. There were gems of various colors. But it had been a long time. These gems had dimmed. Even so, they still looked beautiful.
Walking along the patterns on the ground, Fang Qiu found nothing.
He moved on.
As Fang Qiu walked, something suddenly appeared in front of him.
It was a fist-sized, nearly transparent ball of water floating in a cloud of mist.
This water ball looked incomparably pure, just like the air in this space!
“Perhaps, is this a special space left by a talent from ancient times?”
“The white light I saw in the river is this space, and the water ball in this space is that river?”
Fang Qiu thought of the records in an ancient Taoist book.
In ancient times, Taoists believed a world had a round sky and square earth. The so-called three thousand worlds were like three thousand gears. The three thousand worlds were closely connected. Together, they surrounded the Great Heaven World, which would drive these small worlds to rotate. Whenever the Great Heaven World spun once, the other worlds would turn 365 times.
Taoism believes that one year in heaven equals a year in the human world.
“Could it be that the Laozi Relic is such a small world, and so is this space?”
Fang Qiu wondered.
Fang Qiu reached out his hand and touched the extremely pure water floating before him.
It was just a gentle touch.
“Whoosh…”
The water ball suddenly began to move.
It turned into a stream of water flowing rapidly around as if it were alive.
As it moved…
The water flow gradually became longer and larger.
In the end…
They gathered again before Fang Qiu.
He looked over.
This water stream had taken a human form.
Besides…
It was the image of Fang Qiu!
“Uh?”
Fang Qiu raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Just when he was confused…
The water man, looking the same as Fang Qiu, suddenly made a move. Without any hesitation, it waved its right hand and slapped Fang Qiu.
“Great Hand of Destruction?”
Seeing this, Fang Qiu immediately flew out to avoid this strike.
However, the water man didn’t hesitate at all. It violently waved its hand and made a huge palm print condensed from water, darting toward Fang Qiu.
“Great Hand of Destruction!”
Seeing that he couldn’t dodge it, Fang Qiu waved his right hand and displayed the Great Hand of Destruction.
He delivered a palm strike.
Fang Qiu could only use his internal Qi to fight because there was no Qi of Heaven and Earth in this space. The water man was consuming its water flow.
“Boom!”
The two palms collided.
They did not cause the explosion that he had imagined. Instead, they dissipated in the air.
“Gee?”
Fang Qiu was stunned.
“We look the same, uses the same move, and even has the same strength. Do I have to fight with myself like this?”
He thought to himself.
Fang Qiu got an idea and reached out to summon the divine sword with his right hand.
However…
The divine sword didn’t come.
There was no reaction at all. When he summoned the divine sword, the internal Qi in him made no reaction.
“The Great Hand of Destruction could mobilize my internal Qi, but why couldn’t I summon the divine sword?”
Fang Qiu looked puzzled.
Just then…
“Clap.”
The water man raised his palm again and slapped fiercely again.
“Great Hand of Formlessness?”
Fang Qiu became nervous and immediately launched his Great Hand of Formlessness. It knocked against his opponent’s strike.
At the moment of collision…
The huge force released by this collision knocked both sides back.
“Next, won’t it use the Great Hand of Nihility?”
Fang Qiu stared at the water man in front of him.
As soon as he finished his words…
Somehow, he felt his whole body tense up as if bound by something.
“Great Hand of Nihility!”
With a stir of his mind, Fang Qiu immediately performed the Great Hand of Nihility.
As expected…
After this move…
The tension in him suddenly disappeared.
Instead, he was quite at ease, as if swimming in his own space like a fish returning to the water. It was incomparably refreshing.
“Although I can’t gather the divine sword, I can use the sword Qi, right?”
He thought to himself.
Fang Qiu waved his right hand.
A stream of internal Qi immediately burst from his fingertips, forming a ray of sword light. It flickered on his fingertip.
“Sure enough, it worked.”
Fang Qiu smiled.
Then…
He glanced at the water man opposite him and found it did not imitate his movements to produce the sword light. Instead, it was still waving its palm, ready to perform the Palm Technique.
“It seems this water man can only use the three moves of a person.”
“Good.”
“I’m not familiar with the third move. This is a good chance for me to practice.”
“Perhaps, I can see the other transformations of the three moves.”
At this thought…
Fang Qiu withdrew his sword light.
Without waiting for the water men to act, he took the lead in rushing over.
“Great Hand of Destruction!”
He hit the water man with his palm.
However, just at this moment…
“Swoosh!”
An extremely sharp voice rang out.
And he was astonished to see…
This water man wielded the Great Hand of Destruction with one hand and the Great Hand of Formlessness with the other. The two blows were struck out at the same time. Two water streams with energy gathered before his palms. Then, an exceedingly terrifying explosive force burst out. The reaction force it generated pushed the water man back. Meanwhile, the stream of terrifying explosive force lashed Fang Qiu ferociously.
It looked like a cannonball.
As Fang Qiu saw this…
His eyes lit up.
He had tried to integrate the two moves and even developed Formless Destruction.
But that move…
It could cause an explosion within a large area around him. It worked out well but was obviously not as strong as the attack launched by the water man before him.
“That’s right.”
Seeing this move, Fang Qiu immediately figured it out.
“The Great Hand of Destruction can compress a large quantity of Qi of Heaven and Earth. Then, how about I condense a large-scale attack into a small one nearby with Formless Destruction? The power for a large-scale attack can be concentrated into this energy bomb.”
With joy…
Fang Qiu immediately waved his hand to resist the attack. By forming an energy shield before him, he tried to fend off the bomb of water flows fired by his opponent.
But the next moment…
“Boom!”
There was a huge bang.
As this bomb hit Fang Qiu, it instantly shattered his energy shield. Then, it violently crashed against Fang Qiu hard and sent him flying.
“What the fuck!”
Fang Qiu exclaimed. The moment he landed on the ground, he covered his chest and stood up.
He didn’t expect it at all.
The power of this attack was incredible.
Judging from the previous battle, he knew the water man’s combat capability was at the same level as his, but this move crushed him. It could be seen how powerful this move was!
