At the end of the bridge was ake.
Theke was vast, and it covered an enormous area. When looked at from afar, it was practically no different from facing an ocean.
However, unlike the outside world, thiske didn’t contain water but space-time energy!
This energy transformed into waves, ripples, and tides that surged within theke. It waspletely hazy and seemed calm, yet it emanated a terrifying aura that caused one’s heart to palpitate.
As it implied, space-time was how space and time were referred to in general. Time was exalted and space was king. There was no difference in superiority amongst them, and the two of them could even fuse perfectly together.
The rotation of everything in the world, the passage of time, and the ce where all living beings resided contained the supreme profundities of time and space.
If there was no time, then the passage of history, age, and life naturally didn’t exist.
If there was no space, then the mountains, rivers, stars, sun, moon, and everything else were naturally unable to continue existing, and the world would cease to exist as well.
In short, there were two supreme Laws, the supreme order that the Heaven Dao used the maintain the three dimensions, and it was a supreme force that only existences at the Immortal King Realm couldprehend and grasp.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
A wave of spatial fluctuation appeared as numerous figures teleported over, and all of them stopped sessively before the space-timeke.
These figures were naturally the students from Dao Emperor Academy, Bitter Silence Academy, Grand Destion Academy, and Dao Secret Academy. They’d pursued Chen Xi all along the way on the Bridge to the Deep, yet they were a step too slow in the end, and they could only watch as Chen Xi charged into the depths of theke.
“That fellow is simply crazy. He’s actually traversing this space-timeke!” Someone saw Chen Xi’s figure sh above theke from afar, and he couldn’t help but curse in a low voice.
The others were slightly surprised and bewildered as well.
They’d seen this ce earlier, and they were clearly aware that thiske was too terrifying. Not to mention traversing it from above, even approaching it slightly would cause them to suffer the assault of theke.
The consequences of that would cause them to either instantly lose their lifespan and transform into a pile of bones or fall into ovepped pockets of space and be lost within it, unable to find their way out for eternity.
Even if they had ancient immortal treasures in their possession, unless they had no other choice, they wouldn’t dare take a step near it.
Yet now, Chen Xi had actually disregarded everything and traversed it before vanishing instantly!
Could it be that he’s unafraid of death?
All of them were unable to wrap their heads around it, but when they thought about how they had to watch as Chen Xi left, there was nowhere to vent the resentment in their hearts.
The hearts of Ao Zhanbei, Zuoqiu Jun, and the others ached because the Chaotic Yin Yang Diagram had been seized, and they were utterly unconcerned about Chen Xi’s fate. They were just worried about how they would reim the Chaotic Yin Yang Diagram if Chen Xi perished within the space-timeke.
On the other hand, the students of the other academies were resentful because theirpanions had been killed, and most importantly, they were unable to feel at ease until they saw Chen Xi perish before their eyes.
“What’re all of you thinking of doing?” Suddenly, Zuoqiu Jun frowned as he spoke, and he swept the students of the other academies with his gaze. He was able to clearly sense that the gazes these fellows shot at him and the other students from Dao Emperor Academy carried a faint trace of killing intent.
As soon as these words were spoken, it instantly drew the attention of Ao Zhanbei and the others, and all their expressions turned gloomy while they looked over.
“What we intend to do? A student of your Dao Emperor Academy killed ourpanions. This enmity naturally has to be avenged!” Xue Lianqiong from Bitter Silence Academy gritted his teeth as he spoke.
“With just the few of you?” Zuoqiu Jun spoke with a ghastly tone, and he was extremely furious in his heart. He’d never expected that these fellows would actually set their sights on them at this moment.
“If it was before, we would really not dare rashly make a move against all of you. Unfortunately, all of you’ve lost the Chaotic Yin Yang Diagram, so how can all of you be a match for us?” Xue Lianqiongughed coldly and didn’t take Zuoqiu Jun seriously at all.
The students of Grand Destion Academy and Dao Secret Academyughed coldly as well. Obviously, they’d formed an agreement in secret, and they intended to deal with Zuoqiu Jun and the others.
“Have all of you thought about the fact that if we joined forces with Junior Brother Chen Xi against all of you earlier, then would all of you even be able to survive until now?” Ao Zhanbei spoke with a low voice, and his expression was gloomy and indifferent.
It was fine when he didn’t mention this, but as soon as he did, it instantly caused all of them tough with ridicule.
“Haha! Are you not ashamed? You clearly intended to use us to kill one of your own, yet you still speak so righteously? If this matter were to be spread to Dao Emperor Academy, would all of you still have the face to walk in public?”
“Are you not ashamed? All of you’vepletely destroyed the reputation of Dao Emperor Academy!”
When they heard these words, the expressions of Ao Zhanbei and the others sank. Moreover, many of them nced with a ming gaze at Zuoqiu Jun, and they seemed to be ming him for being too merciless earlier, causing them to be ridiculed because of this.
Zuoqiu Jun was extremely infuriated in his heart as well. How could he have imagined that Chen Xi would actually be able to survive? And he’d never expected that the situation would develop to such an extent.
“Haha! Do all of you really think you’re able to kill us so easily?” Zuoqiu Jun suddenlyughed coldly and said with disdain, “Amongst all of you, Chen Xi heavily injured everyone from Bitter Silence Academy, and only the students from Dao Secret Academy and Grand Destion Academy have the strength to fight. Chen Xi can crush all of you without relying on an ancient immortal treasure, could it be that all of you think we can’t aplish this without the Chaotic Yin Yang Diagram?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the students from the other academies turned grim and slightly heavy.
Even if Zuoqiu Jun was exaggerating, they had no choice but to treat his words with caution. The reason was none other than because Dao Emperor Academy was able to exist until now and constantly upy the position of number one academy in the Immortal Dimension, so it was definitely worthy of its reputation.
Not to mention that they didn’t dare guarantee that there wasn’t an existence even more abnormal than Chen Xi amongst Zuoqiu Jun’s group.
For a time, the atmosphere became heavy and silent.
Both sides wished for nothing more than to kill the other so as to avoid leaving behind evidence of what happened today, but both sides were afraid of the other as well, causing both sides to not dare make a move rashly.
Om!
Right at this moment, a wave of ancient and grand ringing of a bell resounded, and it spread through the heavens and the earth. The sound carried an indescribable deste aura, that caused everyone to feel that they’d returned to the primeval times in their daze.
At this moment, the hearts of everyone present here shook lightly and was affected by the grand ringing. Moreover, they couldn’t help but arouse a feeling of reverence and inferiority.
Om! Om! Om!
The sound resounded sessively for nine times. Every single ring seemed as if it resounded in the depths of their souls, causing a deste feeling to arise in their hearts and be dazed.
After an unknown period of time, when Zuoqiu Jun and the others recovered from their daze, they noticed to their shock that nine grand and ancient pces were suddenly standing towering on the distant space-timeke!
The pces were ancient andpletely built from mottled rocks. It seemed as if it had experienced the passage of countless years, and it was solemn and dignified!
All of them gasped while their attention was instantly drawn by the unexpected event before them. They didn’t know exactly when this had urred, and as for the confrontational atmosphere from before, it waspletely forgotten by them since a long time ago.
This was the tomb of an Immortal King, and nine ancient pces had appeared out of thin air now. So perhaps there were numerous great fortunes within it. Thus, they were naturally not stupid to the point of fighting each other now.
“Do all of you remember that legend that has been spread in Nightmare Battlefield for countless years?” Someone spoke with a trembling voice, and he seemed to have thought of something, causing him to reveal an excited expression.
With this reminder, everyone else was slightly stunned before they revealed shocked expressions, and a wisp of burning desire couldn’t help but appear within their eyes.
When nine pces appear, the inheritance appears!
These few words were like a bolt of lightning that surged in their hearts. Originally, all of them thought it was an ancient legend that was impossible to find, yet never had they imagined that it would actually appear right before their eyes.
“My god! It really is Emperor Yu’s Nine Cauldron Pces!”
“So the true inheritance has always been hidden beneath this space-timeke. No wonder no one was able to find it in the countless years of the past...”
“But why have they appeared at this moment?”
“It’s already at a time like this, why care so much about that? Quickly, let’s go in quickly!”
Suddenly, a wave of exims and the sound of the air being split apart resounded. After that, numerous figures rushed over from all around the space-timeke. Shockingly, Ji Xuanbing, Zhao Mengli, Zhen Lu, and various others were amongst them.
Of course, the students of Vastsky Academy and Cloudmist Academy were amongst them.
If Zuoqiu Jun and all the others present here were included, then it could be said that all the students that had entered the tomb this time had converged here. Of course, the dead weren’t included.
“Let’s go!”
“Quickly! Let’s go! Let’s go before anything unexpected happens!”
When they saw more people had rushed over after noticing what had urred here, no matter if it was Zuoqiu Jun’s group or the students from Bitter Silence, Grand Destion, and Dao Secret Academy, all their faces sank, and they practically didn’t think at all before setting out sessively and shing explosively towards the nine pces at the center of theke.
Meanwhile, the terrifying aura that suffused theke had vanished along with the appearance of the nine pces, so they naturally wouldn’t feel afraid.
For a time, figures moved about in the sky above theke, and they charged respectively towards different pces. This was extremely normal because there were an entire nine pces, so why would any of them work together?
However, one could roughly discern that the students of the seven great academies had split up into seven groups, and they entered into different pces.
Of course, there were two pces where no one entered, and some students that felt they possessed formidablebat strengths acted alone and entered these pces.
Unfortunately, all of them didn’t know that they were actually a step toote.
...
In arge hall that was extremely silent, only Chen Xi’s footsteps could be heard. It had been countless years since anyone had entered this ce, so as he stood within it, it was like standing alone in a deserted world.
The tiny cauldron had vanished after bringing Chen Xi in, and Chen Xi was unable to find it, so he could only look around by himself.
He walked forward and looked carefully all along the way. No matter if it was the walls, pirs, or floor, everything he saw was filled with the mottled aura of time, and it caused him to arouse a feeling of loneliness.
It wasn’t long before a tinyntern appeared ahead, and it flickered with a dim glow.
“What’s this?” Chen Xi was surprised. Countless years had passed, yet thisntern was still burning, and this was extraordinary.
He walked forward and noticed it was an ancient round Dao tform. Atop the tform was a meditation cushion andntern. Everything else was covered in dust, and it was obvious that it hadn’t been utilized in a very long time.
“Could this be that expert’s ce of cultivation?” Chen Xi was surprised, and he executed the Eye of Divine Truth and focused his gaze onto thentern before him.
