RUMBLE…
Gazing at the churning spatial storm just inches away, Shen Haoran took a deep breath. He turned to cast one last, profound look at the three figures shrouded in pitch-black mist, his eyes completely devoid of panic. Then, right before their very eyes, he plunged headfirst into the terrifying spatial storm.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The moment Shen Haoran plunged into the spatial storm, it began to churn violently. Deafening rumbles echoed continuously around the square. A moment later, a few blood-stained tatters of clothing drifted out of the storm, fluttering slowly to the ground. Then, the spatial storm gradually subsided.
Gazing at the shattered Spatial Passage and the occasional flares from the spatial storm, the Martial Artists within Celestial Gate City couldn't quite process what had just happened. So many incredible things had occurred in a single day. Shen Haoran had descended from the sky and had almost single-handedly eradicated Fallen Valley's stronghold in the city. Then, three figures shrouded in black mist had appeared out of nowhere, forcing Shen Haoran into a desperate corner, destroying the Spatial Passage, and sweeping him into the spatial storm. It took a long time for the Martial Artists of Celestial Gate City to recover from their shock.
Meanwhile, the three shadowy figures in mid-air showed no signs of joy as they watched Shen Haoran get swept into the spatial storm. In fact, when they saw his final gaze, they couldn't help but shudder.
"Do you think… he'll die?" one of the three figures finally asked in a low voice. 'To be honest, it's unbelievable that we were frightened by a single look from Shen Haoran.' When they had met his emotionless eyes, all three of them had the same strange feeling: Shen Haoran would definitely return, and when he did, it would be the day Fallen Valley was annihilated.
At this thought, all three of them broke out in a cold sweat. But they quickly shook their heads, trying to dismiss the notion. 'That spatial storm… Even if the three of us entered it at our peak, we wouldn't last ten seconds. Let alone Shen Haoran, who is only at the Spirit Marquis Tier. He has to be torn to shreds by now!'
"Whether Shen Haoran is alive or dead, we must investigate. Where does this Spatial Passage lead?" one of the dark figures asked in a grave tone. Shen Haoran's final glare had left a dark cloud in his mind, and he knew he had to take this matter seriously.
Just then, the person in charge of the Celestial Gate City stronghold rushed over. Hearing the question, he immediately replied, "This Spatial Passage leads to Thousand Hands City in the Eastern Domain."
"The Eastern Domain?" Hearing the man's answer, all three dark figures frowned. The Eastern Domain… that was the territory of the Demon Race. On the Xingluo Continent, the Human Race was the most populous, occupying the Northern, Southern, and Central Domains, while the Eastern Domain was the territory of the Demon Race, and the Western Domain was the territory of the Demon Race.
The Demon Race and the Demon Race had always been hostile toward humans, though it didn't stop them from trading goods. However, they would refuse any other form of contact with the Human Race. If Shen Haoran appeared among the Eastern Domain Demon Race, it would be quite troublesome.
"Seniors, there is one more thing I must remind you of," the man in charge said gravely. "When Shen Haoran entered the Spatial Passage, it had already been damaged. The space within is extremely unstable. Even if he survived by some miracle, there's no telling where in the Eastern Domain he'd be transported. The chances of him arriving in Thousand Hands City are extremely low. Therefore, if he really is alive, finding him will be a very troublesome matter!"
Hearing this, the three figures' brows furrowed even tighter. One of them spoke in a low voice, "Just in case, send people to the Eastern Domain to investigate. Remember, do not alert the Demon Race. Otherwise, this won't end well for us!"
After giving their instructions, the three hurried back toward Fallen Valley. This matter had to be reported to Ouyang Feng. After all, they were former Valley Masters of Fallen Valley. Although their methods and personalities were unpredictable, they had to be cautious when the very survival of Fallen Valley was at stake.
After the three departed, Celestial Gate City once again grew lively, with everyone talking about Shen Haoran.
Meanwhile, inside the spatial storm, Shen Haoran's clothes had long been torn to shreds. The terrifying storm constantly ripped at his body. Gash after gash appeared on his skin, and blood flowed unceasingly. Even the Black Tortoise Shield enveloping him wasn't offering much protection.
Shen Haoran gritted his teeth against the searing pain wracking his body, mobilizing the Power of Chaos from his Primordial Small World to constantly repair his wounds and prevent his body from being torn asunder by the terrifying spatial storm!
Watching the Power of Chaos in his Primordial Small World rapidly depleting, Shen Haoran's heart began to sink. The surrounding spatial storm was simply too terrifying. Even a Spirit Emperor Level expert who fell into this shattered space couldn't guarantee they would make it out alive. If not for his Chaos Divine Body, Shen Haoran would have likely been torn apart the instant he made contact with the storm!
'This isn't working. I have to get out of here, now!' Shen Haoran thought frantically. The Power of Chaos in his Primordial Small World wouldn't last much longer. If he couldn't find an exit before it was completely depleted, he would be ground to bits by the surrounding spatial storm!
But escaping this shattered dimension required breaking through its walls, an ability that only a Spirit Emperor Level Martial Artist possessed. Shen Haoran was merely at the Spirit Marquis Tier. How could he possibly accomplish such a feat?
"Kid, don't give up!" Elder Yan's voice echoed urgently in Shen Haoran's mind. "Because of the spatial storm, the barrier of this dimension is also fragile. Use the Soul-devouring Sword! It's a Quasi-Sacred Artifact. With my power and Changmao's, if your luck holds, you should be able to break through the space here!"
Hearing this, Shen Haoran nodded firmly. There was no time to hesitate. The Power of Chaos in his Primordial Small World was dissipating rapidly. He had to try this method, whether it worked or not!
With that thought, Shen Haoran retrieved the Soul-devouring Sword from his Storage Ring. The terrifying spatial storm scraped against the blade, creating a series of loud hums. Shen Haoran took a deep breath, and the power of Elder Yan and Changmao surged from his body into the Soul-devouring Sword, causing it to erupt with a brilliant light.
When the Energy in the Soul-devouring Sword reached its peak, Shen Haoran let out a furious roar and slashed at the spatial barrier before him. A dazzling Sword Light flared to life, bursting from the Soul-devouring Sword with ferocious, Powerful Qi!
But before Shen Haoran could celebrate, the sharp Sword Aura was torn to shreds by the terrifying spatial storm after traveling only a short distance, dissipating into countless motes of Spiritual Power in the pitch-black space…
