Chapter 654: Sealed Space 1S 2
One year passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the five were drinking space beast meat soup when Ao Tian, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue suddenly stood up.
"Run." Jiang Yue shouted, urging Yang Xu and Xiaolan.
At the same time, Yu Nianzhen swung his sword, and Ao Tian turned into his beast form.
A moment later, a silver light rushed towards them, and Yu Nianzhen used his sword to block it, but was forced to retreat more than fifty metres.
"It’s the mutated space beast." Jiang Yue observed with a solemn expression.
"It’s wielding an axe." Yang Xu said, looking solemn as well.
"Master, I will handle it." Ao Tian said, and without waiting for Yu Nianzhen’s reply, the black dragon teleported to the space beast and swung its tail.
Soon after, the tail collided with an axe, and the surrounding space collapsed, giving the illusion of a shattered mirror.
"We need to deal with the remaining space beasts as soon as possible." Yang Xu said.
After all, the mutated space beast was not an ordinary opponent.
If things went wrong, the space would collapse, and the occupants would be thrust into the Cangxing world.
When that happened, their group of five may not be able to control the situation, and the surviving space beasts would wreak havoc in the Cangxing world.
"There are seven space beasts remaining." Xiaolan said.
"Xiaoyue and I will deal with five. The remaining two are yours." Yu Nianzhen said, looking at Yang Xu and Xiaolan.
Seeing the look, the two nodded, and the group ran out to find the space beasts.
Barely four breaths later, Yu Niazhen stopped in front of a space beast.
The beast’s cultivation was equivalent to a peak-stage immortal realm cultivator, but Yu Nianzhen knew its combat ability was comparable to an early or mid-stage immortal king realm cultivator.
’We can’t afford to drag it out.’ Yu Nianzhen thought and subconsciously narrowed his eyes.
From the beginning, Yu Nianzhen had been using his dao transcending sword art to fight the space beasts.
On one hand, he wanted to perfect his natal sword art, and on the other, he hoped for insight into the third move of the dao transcending sword art.
As a result, the first form of his dao transcending sword art was half a point faster, and the second form was a quarter of a point more powerful.
Unfortunately, Yu Nianzhen was still clueless about the third move, but he was not in a hurry.
After all, there were many sealed spaces waiting to be explored, and he believed his opportunity would arrive sooner or later.
At this time, Yu Nianzhen swung his sword, and a silver sword light flew towards the space beast.
Less than a breath later, the light reached its target, but the space beast instinctively blinked, causing the sword light to hit its eyelid instead of the pupil.
That said, the attack was not completely useless.
Although the space beast was not fatally injured, its eyelid was torn to pieces, exposing the vulnerable part of its eye.
Because of this, Yu Nianzhen was able to easily deal with it, and in less than an hour, a sword light penetrated the space beast’s eye and pierced its brain, causing it to roar in agony and collapse in the next breath.
’One down.’ The swordsman thought and began looking for his next target.
In this way, Yu Nianzhen, Jiang Yue, Yang Xu, and Xiaolan spent one day dealing with the seven space beasts.
However, Ao Tian and the axe-wielding space beast were at a stalemate, and neither could get an advantage over the other.
"I didn’t expect a space beast to wield a weapon so skilfully." Jiang Yue said, his head tilted to the side and his eyes glistening with curiosity.
"It must have learned from the cultivators who previously entered the space." Yang Xu guessed.
After all, the axe looked like the relic of an ancient human cultivator.
"Speaking of weapons..." Jiang Yue muttered, sighed and looked at his pipa.
His Fuyue and Yu Nianzhen’s Shanjiang had thankfully become immortal weapons when they broke through to the immortal realm.
Unfortunately, the same phenomenon did not happen when they advanced to the immortal king realm. As a result, the two were peak-stage immortal king realm cultivators, but their weapons were a level lower.
’We need to find an opportunity to search for materials to upgrade our weapons.’ He thought, but suddenly lowered his eyes with a thoughtful expression.
’Or maybe we will be lucky to find a bountiful sealed space.’ He thought.
While Jiang Yue was thinking, a loud roar broke his focus, and the surrounding space began to collapse.
However, before the first roar could trail off, another collided with it, and the space collapse intensified.
"Let’s retreat further." Yu Nianzhen said, pulling Jiang Yue to fly backwards.
"Azhen..." Jiang Yue called with a thoughtful expression.
"What’s wrong?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
"The sealed spaces are fundamentally part of the Cangxing world." The silver-haired man started and quickly continued.
"When the seal comes off, the space will reintegrate into the Cangxing world. Do you think the space cracks will be a problem when this space is reintegrated?" He asked, but Yu Nianzhen shook his head.
"I don’t think it will be a problem." He said and began explaining.
"Our Cangxing world is now a high-tier world, while this space is lower than the world’s level. After reintegrating, the Cangxing world will be able to heal the collapses and cracks without leaving any hidden dangers." He said, and after thinking about it, Jiang Yue nodded.
"You are right." He said, and the group continued to watch the fight.
Although Ao Tian was a peak-stage level eight demonic beast, he struggled against the mutated space beast.
In the end, the fight lasted seven days and six nights before Ao Tian barely scraped a win.
However, the five didn’t have time to celebrate.
Immediately after the mutated space beast died, the sealed space began to collapse on a massive scale.
At the same time, a space core dislodged from the ground and flew into the air.
"Azhen, collect the mutated space beast corpse, and I will grab the space core." Jiang Yue shouted, rushing towards the space core.
