Chapter 1832 Playing the Fool with Him
Chapter 1832 Playing the Fool with Him
We must return to the Spirit Realm immediately!
The moment Mingchuan burst out of the Dustless Cave, he had already made his decision.
The ominous premonition brought about by the shattering of Zhao Hu's mark was like a cold spider web wrapped around his heart, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
“But even the nearest teleportation array would take half a day to return to the Spirit Realm from here…” Ye Yan said anxiously.
The Holy Domain is vast, and they are currently located at the Central Spirit Mountain. To return to the desert area near the border between the Holy Domain and the Spirit Domain, and then return to the Spirit Domain through the fixed passage, there simply isn't enough time!
"If we can't take the usual path, we'll take the extraordinary one!" Mingchuan's eyes were resolute, a silver glint flashing wildly in them.
He suddenly stopped, hovering in mid-air above Mount Ling, and quickly formed hand seals in front of his chest.
Silver runes of spatial laws surged from his body like living things, intertwining and humming.
He closed his eyes and used all his spiritual sense to communicate with the Heavenly Mirror, which was located at the core of the Ten Thousand Rivers Sect in the Spirit Realm!
"Xiao Chuan, are you going to forcibly open an ultra-long-distance spatial passage?" Master Lingxu saw through his intention and his expression became solemn.
"The two places are separated by more than a million miles, and there is a boundary barrier between them! Even if you have the Sky-Observing Mirror for positioning, the consumption is far beyond your imagination. If you are not careful, the spatial backlash can severely damage your soul!"
"We can't worry about that now!" Mingchuan's forehead was already covered in sweat, but his voice was resolute. "Zhao Hu and the others can't wait! Master, seniors, lend me a hand and stabilize the passage!"
He knew he was being presumptuous, but he had no other choice.
The ability of the Celestial Mirror to monitor the Spirit Realm is based on its profound understanding and anchoring of the Spirit Realm space.
Using the Mirror of Heaven as a beacon, and burning a large amount of spatial origin power, perhaps... we can tear open a temporary passage!
"Nonsense! But... never mind!" Master Lingxu looked at the unwavering determination in Mingchuan's eyes and knew that dissuasion was useless.
He took a deep breath, and his vast late-stage Nascent Soul spiritual power surged out, transforming into gentle moonlight chains that wrapped around Mingchuan, both to protect him and to help stabilize the raging spatial power.
"Kid, hang in there!"
The Crimson Flame Fox let out a low growl and placed its palms on Mingchuan's back. Pure and domineering Yang energy surged in, not to destroy, but to cleverly share some of the enormous pressure brought by the tearing of space for Mingchuan.
With a gentle wave of her jade-like hand, the blue-faced fox sent forth a rich, azure-green life force that enveloped Mingchuan's entire body, nourishing his rapidly depleting essence and spirit.
Ye Yan stood guard vigilantly to his side, his divine sense fully activated, ready to guard against any possible interference.
Mingchuan felt the pressure decrease significantly, and his mind became more focused.
The silver talisman in his dantian shone brightly, almost shattering!
Countless silver spatial threads spread and pierced wildly into the depths of the void, centered on him!
Crossing endless distances and passing through layers of boundary barriers, his divine sense finally touched the spiritual realm and the core node of the huge sky screen in the Hanging Hall of the Wanchuan Sect!
"Found it! The Celestial Mirror, help me!"
In the distant Wanchuan Sect, the Heavenly Mirror Platform suddenly erupted with an unprecedentedly dazzling silver light!
Jin Man, Shi Wenxiong, and the others who remained behind looked up in horror and saw a clear coordinate point lit up in the center of the sky, which was the soul imprint of Sect Master Ming Chuan!
"It's Mingchuan!" Jinman reacted instantly. "Quick! Activate all backup power sources to help him stabilize the spatial signal!"
The spirit stones and core energy of the array stored by Wanchuan Sect were frantically extracted and injected into the Observation Mirror.
The mirror surface ripples, resonating with the spatial power of Mingchuan that spans two places!
"Now—open!!"
Mingchuan's eyes widened in fury, a trickle of blood spilled from his mouth, and he ripped his hands apart violently!
“Sizzle——!!!”
Above Mount Ling, the tranquil sky seemed to have been torn open by a pair of invisible giant hands, creating a terrifying crack more than ten feet long with edges flashing with dazzling silver light and dark spatial turbulence!
The rift did not lead to the void, but instead presented a bizarre and rapidly flowing scene, with a vague view of the desolate landscape belonging to the western region of the spirit realm!
The forcibly opened interdimensional passage is extremely unstable. Violent spatial turbulence rages like blades along the edge of the crack, emitting a teeth-grinding shriek.
"The passage can only last for ten breaths! Let's go!" Mingchuan's face was ashen, and his aura instantly weakened, clearly indicating a huge drain on his energy.
"Go!" Without hesitation, Master Lingxu rolled up his sleeves, wrapped Mingchuan in them, and rushed into the crevice first.
Ye Yan, Qingmianhu, and Chiyanhu followed closely behind.
The five figures disappeared into the turbulent spatial currents, and the forcibly torn rift immediately began to tremble, twist, and rapidly shrink.
Ten breaths later, the crack disappeared completely, and the sky above Mount Ling returned to calm, as if nothing had ever happened.
Only the lingering subtle spatial fluctuations and a few wisps of dissipated silver light testify to how astonishing everything that had just happened was.
……
The Spirit Realm, the Western Regions, on the edge of the Fallen Star Wasteland.
Above an inconspicuous mountain hollow, space suddenly distorted violently like ripples on water, and then with a "poof," a crack several feet long appeared.
Five slightly disheveled figures tumbled out and landed on the ground.
Mingchuan stumbled and was caught by Master Lingxu.
He felt a sweet taste in his throat, forced himself to swallow the blood that surged up, quickly took out a handful of pills and stuffed them into his mouth to regulate his breathing and recover.
Forcibly opening such a long temporary passage almost drained 80% of his spatial origin power, and his soul also felt a series of stinging pains.
But he didn't care about anything else and immediately looked up to determine the direction.
"This place... is on the southeastern edge of the Fallen Star Wasteland, about three hundred miles from that underground cave." The Blue-Faced Fox quickly assessed the situation by sensing the thin and chaotic life force around it.
"Zhao Hu's last trace of his presence disappeared from the depths of the wasteland ahead."
Mingchuan suppressed his discomfort and used his divine sense to try to sense the direction of the last remaining aura of the broken mark.
The environment in the wasteland is extremely harsh.
The air was dry and scorching, the spiritual energy thin and filled with turbulent earth and metal elements and a faint, chaotic power of the stars.
The ground was hard, dark red gravel and jagged rocks, with almost no vegetation.
The sky was also a hazy yellow, as if it were forever shrouded in a layer of dust.
Divine senses are greatly disturbed here, and the range of exploration is less than 30% of what it usually is.
"The environment here is special, and divine sense is limited, so everyone be careful," Lingxu Zhenren warned. At the same time, he also unleashed the powerful perception of the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, spreading outwards like invisible ripples. Although the range was reduced, the precision was extremely high.
"There's a bloody smell...and...a very faint scent of Buddhist incense, mixed with...a nauseating aura of malevolence!"
The Crimson Fox's nose twitched, its eyes blazing with fury. "It's right over there!"
He pointed northwest.
The group immediately sped off in that direction, their speed was fast, but they concealed their presence to the extreme.
