Chapter 621: Chapter 621 Monster_1
Ling Yuyan had once received teachings from an Immortal in her dreams.
Additionally, she was a rare talent that only appeared once in ten thousand years.
Only then was she able to swim against the current and become an Immortal of her era.
She had originally thought that after slicing through the blue skies with her sword, even if she couldn’t ascend to immortality directly, she would definitely be able to enter a more prosperous place.
Yet she never imagined, that what she would face today, would be such a scene.
Utter silence, utter silence.
No sign of life whatsoever.
She strode through the endless void.
This void was not just devoid of any Spiritual Qi or vitality but the bone-chilling cold was also mixed with some substances harmful to the body.
These substances were something she could easily keep at bay.
The consumption was also minuscule.
But what about the minuscule consumption over a hundred years, a thousand years, ten thousand years?
If she entered here and couldn’t find the way home, without any supply of Spiritual Qi, her strength would only continue to be depleted.
Moreover, her lifespan wasn’t endless either.
Even if her lifespan were endless, without replenishment, her strength would still continuously dissipate.
Who knows, in this endless void which seems to have no end in sight, if there would be another world?
How far away was she from the legendary Immortal World?
The deeper she ventured, the colder Ling Yuyan’s heart became.
Her eyes and her heart were already filled with despair.
It was the deepest despair.
At this moment.
This peerless genius, who had defied the world to achieve Deifying despite no Golden Elixir existing in the entire world.
That will as firm as bedrock, as solid as fine metal.
Also wavered!
Why did the heavens play such a huge joke on her?
Does immortality truly exist in this world?
She thought of the Immortal who had taught her in her dreams thousands of years ago.
Was that Immortal… a true Immortal, or just a figure of her dreams?
The Way is born of Heaven, fortuitously obtained by a skillful hand.
It seemed not impossible that she had serendipitously found the Way in her dream.
If it was her dream, didn’t that mean that immortals simply didn’t exist in this world?
“No!”
Ling Yuyan’s gaze gradually became resolute.
She didn’t believe it.
She refused to believe that there were no Immortals in this world.
She stepped into the boundless void.
This void, perhaps, was a test bestowed upon her by the heavens?
How could she waver!
With that thought, she sheathed her sword and was about to step forward into the void.
At that moment.
Suddenly.
“Ao!”
A terrifying sound exploded in the surrounding space.
Despite there being no air, the tremors from that sound were audible even by the countless people below Immortal Mountain.
Ling Yuyan’s face changed dramatically.
She had not yet perceived the presence of the thing that had made the sound, but the ferocious aura it released made her feel like a skiff in a giant wave.
Rocking in the storm.
She realized that she was no match for it.
Not even a fraction of a chance of winning!
“Retreat first!”
Ling Yuyan stepped back, retreating into the crack in the sky that had opened up.
At this moment, the crack was closing. She had just retreated back when the fissure completely sealed shut.
Ling Yuyan breathed a sigh of relief.
“Eh, why has Immortal Yuyan returned?”
“Could it be related to the loud sound just now?”
“That sound was so terrifying, I almost vomited blood!”
At the base of the cliff, the crowd buzzed with discussion.
Everyone felt somewhat uneasy.
Indeed, that sound was just too frightening.
And now, even Ling Yuyan, the Earthly Immortal, had been forced to return,
That was enough to suggest that after Ling Yuyan broke through the void, she might have encountered a terrifying enemy!
“Ka~”
At that moment, suddenly.
A new calamity arose.
In the sky, it was as if glass had shattered, instantly creating countless cracks.
“Not good!”
Ling Yuyan’s face changed dramatically.
She had already retreated, yet the enemy had actually pursued her.
And they did so with terrifying force.
“Boom!”
The next second, accompanied by a deafening noise, high in the sky, it seemed as if the night itself had been smashed to pieces.
A terrifyingly large hole had been torn open.
There, a huge, blood-red moon appeared, so large it filled the entire sky!
That red moon was incredibly crimson, and it was covered in circles of black lines.
It emitted an eerie feeling.
It reeked of blood.
Immediately after, the red moon flashed.
Ling Yuyan’s face changed drastically again!
“This, this isn’t the moon!” someone exclaimed in shock.
Indeed, it wasn’t the moon.
Because…
It was the eye of a terrifying, gigantic beast!
After breaking through the Realm Wall, the creature used its eye to look inside.
One eye seemed to fill the sky!
This scene was like a human cracking open an eggshell and curiously looking inside.
Upon realizing this, everyone was horrified.
They wanted to move but couldn’t; the shock was too great, their bodies frozen cold.
They had lost even the ability to act.
“Desolate Beast.”
Qin Changqing, who had been lurking in the shadows, spoke softly.
He knew of this type of beast.
Desolate Beasts, which feast on Spirit Domains—if they discover a domain that is not sufficiently powerful, its fate is dire.
This one seemed huge, but its strength was only equivalent to the late stages of Combine Body.
This youngster had yet to grow up.
In the Blue Realm, a being at the Combine Body stage did not seem very strong, just a powerful figure in a given region.
But in the myriad worlds, such a being could sweep through countess realms.
How could it not, when the Blue Realm itself was one of the ten strongest in the Great Spiritual Realm?
This time, Ling Yuyan’s sword that slashed the sky had just happened to disturb it.
No, it was Qin Changqing’s arrival that had disturbed it.
The terrifying aspect of the Desolate Beast lay in its perception within the void, where its sensing range was vast, and it did not sense through something like Divine Sense.
It was energy perception.
There was nothing in the void.
Qin Changqing’s arrival caused a fluctuation in energy, like lighting a bonfire in the darkness; it was perceived by the beast from who knows how many thousands of miles away.
Moreover, they were hard to detect in the void, as they would be indistinguishable from stones when not moving.
Of course, when it came, Qin Changqing still noticed it, but he did not
take action immediately.
In the high skies of Immortal Mountain, Ling Yuyan had already made her move.
A thousand miles of sword light once again slashed at the heavens.
This time, it targeted the eye of the Desolate Beast.
That giant red moon.
But facing her sword light, the Desolate Beast did not even blink its eye.
The sword light fell upon its eye… and then, there was no after.
The Desolate Beast ignored her, and as its eyeball swiveled, it seemed to be sizing up the Spirit Domain.
Like a child eyeing a delicious treat, calculating where to start eating.
Ling Yuyan felt despair once more.
Not just her, but countless people below the cliffs were also in despair.
Even the Earthly Immortals were unable to affect the gigantic beast in the slightest.
What kind of monster was this!
“Someone’s there!”
At that moment, an elder saw that beneath the red moon, a figure had appeared.
This figure also seemed incredibly small, but when he appeared, the gaze of the Desolate Beast that had been surveying the Spirit Domain suddenly stopped on the figure.
It was clear to see that the circles of lines on the red moon instantly converged toward the center.
It was like a person seeing a formidable enemy, with pupils instantly focusing.
Although its eye was large, within it, one could clearly discern… fear!
