Chapter 343: Mysterious Cave, Breakthrough Realization
Chapter 343: Mysterious Cave, Breakthrough Realization
The Rainbow State derived its name from the frequent rainbow lights that adorned the sky.
A flying boat descended upon a mountain peak, the chosen battleground, and Li Xuan gazed into the distance at the emerald sea. It was about time for Xu Yan to return.
Half a month ago, Xu Yan had broken through to the perfect state of the Divine Origin Realm.
Su Lingxiu and Meng Chong had also transcended to the great perfection stage of the Divine Origin Realm.
Fang Hao had refined his fourth Heaven's Wonder Pattern, his cultivation base now equivalent to the Divine Origin Realm.
His Qimen martial arts had become increasingly pure, and his abilities in formations, artifact refining, restrictions, and the Heaven's Mystery Gate had vastly improved.
"Greetings, Senior!"
Wu Tiannan respectfully bowed.
Li Xuan nodded.
This final battle of the Heaven's Pride Confrontation would determine the victory between the Myriad Ages Alliance and the Spirit Sect, shaping the ultimate landscape of the Spirit Domain.
Wu Tiannan had naturally come to support the Myriad Ages Alliance.
Although he had not yet broken through to the next realm and still faced some restrictions, his strength had increased significantly.
He had already faintly touched the threshold of the next realm.
"Master!"
Meng Chong had returned.
Li Xuan nodded. Meng Chong had not yet comprehended the first level of the Great Sun Immortal Body, but he seemed to have gained some insights. Perhaps he wouldn't be far from understanding it completely.
Meng Chong found a place to sit cross-legged and continued to meditate on his martial arts, awaiting the imminent Heaven's Pride Confrontation.
"Master!"
Fang Hao, carrying the Qimen weapon box on his back, came to pay his respects to his master.
"Hn."
Li Xuan nodded.
"Where's Senior Brother?" Fang Hao asked, puzzled.
"Senior Brother hasn't returned yet," Su Lingxiu replied.
"I would like to invite Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother to lend their strength to our Myriad Ages Alliance," Fang Hao said.
To ensure victory in this battle, Fang Hao decided to request the aid of his senior brothers. With their intervention, even if the Superlative Spirit Sect brought out more geniuses, they would only be suppressed.
After this battle, the landscape of the Spirit Domain would be set, and he would succeed the position of the Alliance Master of the Myriad Ages Alliance.
"No problem," Meng Chong said, opening his eyes.
"Thank you, Second Senior Brother!"
Su Lingxiu snorted and said, "Second Senior Brother, why don't you ask me to lend my strength as well? Do you think I'm weak?"
"How dare I, Second Senior Sister? You just don't like fighting," Fang Hao said with a chuckle.
"That's true. I'll only fight one match to confirm my fourth position," Su Lingxiu said after some thought.
"How can that be? Second Senior Sister, you should definitely be ranked third," Fang Hao said with a smile.
"That's right. I am the second senior sister, after all," Su Lingxiu said, her face lighting up with joy.
The geniuses of the Spirit Domain were gathering.
Members of the Superlative Spirit Sect were also arriving one after another, but their core geniuses had yet to reveal themselves.
Naturally, many eyes turned to the Thousand Martial Arts Palace, wondering if they would be able to regain their honor in this battle.
After all, it was their sect that had been blocked at their mountain gate by Xu Yan, their geniuses defeated, and their divine artifact taken away.
Moreover, there was no news of the Elder who had pursued Xu Yan with his knife.
Most likely, he had perished.
It was unknown, however, whether he had been killed by Xu Yan or had met with some other unexpected mishap.
...
In the black abyss of the emerald sea, a light blue boat sailed through the pitch-black waters, a defensive formation parting the sea as it continued to dive deeper.
Xu Yan had explored the Abyss of the Emerald Sea and had to admit that it was indeed dangerous. He had lost two Divine Origin incarnations there.
However, he had also made some gains and finally obtained the divine treasure of the Emerald Sea.
And it wasn't just one.
After that, he had come to the Black Deep of the Emerald Sea and had been exploring it for most of the past year.
Once, he had almost lost his sense of direction and had relied on the Navigation Pearl to return to the surface.
Xu Yan looked at the several divine pearls in his hand. These were all found in the black abyss, and in addition to the Emerald Sea Divine Pearl, he had also accidentally discovered a damaged object.
It seemed to be the remains of some kind of weapon, but it was different from any he had seen before, and the material was also unique.
However, it could be determined that its grade was no less than that of a divine artifact from the Spirit Domain.
And this was in its damaged state. If it were a complete weapon, it would likely be even more powerful.
Moreover, he had found some traces in the black abyss that seemed to be from a distant ancient past, as if they were remnants of a great battle.
This place might truly have been a battlefield.
"I have enough divine treasures. With just a little more accumulation, I should be able to break through to the Divine Communication Realm after the Heaven's Pride battle is over," Xu Yan thought, his heart filled with excitement.
A few days ago, he had been preparing to leave the black abyss and return to the Eighteen States to participate in the Heaven's Pride Confrontation.
However, one of his Divine Origin incarnations had discovered a strange phenomenon in the Black Deep of the Emerald Sea. When he approached to investigate, he suddenly lost all sensation, as if the distance between them had suddenly expanded.
Xu Yan couldn't help but be curious, so he went to the place where that Divine Origin incarnation had disappeared to explore. However, because the black abyss was pitch-black, it was difficult to identify his location, and it took some time to find the place where the incarnation had vanished.
"Hmm!"
Suddenly, Xu Yan sensed the presence of his Divine Origin incarnation. What surprised him was that the incarnation was inside a bizarre cave. This cave was peculiar; it seemed to have appeared at the bottom of the sea, yet it was not a typical underwater cave as there was no mud surrounding it.
It gave the impression of being a self-contained space.
It was as if a hole had been bored through the very fabric of the heavens and earth.
As Xu Yan drew closer, he established a mental connection with his Divine Origin incarnation and saw through its eyes a small cave that was less than three feet in diameter. His incarnation had been sucked into this peculiar cave.
Strangely, the cave seemed to ripple, as if slowly expanding, and a unique power continuously emanated from its depths.
"The power of the heavenly dao's laws, and another force that seems to be prying open the heavenly dao's laws, creating a hole as if piercing through the very fabric of space. This is no ordinary underground cave."
Xu Yan frowned, sensing the power of the heavenly dao's laws surrounding the cave. It seemed as though the laws had been forcibly held back, creating a space within the cave that was seemingly exempt from their influence.
However, an unknown force was seeping into the cave from its depths, prying open the heavenly dao's laws and creating this unusual cavern.
With caution, Xu Yan inched closer to the cave while maintaining his mental connection with the Divine Origin incarnation.
In the pitch-blackness, the cave was nearly invisible, and only by detecting the unique power emanating from it could Xu Yan pinpoint its exact location.
"What kind of cave is this? Is this the source of the Black Deep of the Emerald Sea?"
Xu Yan was baffled.
At that moment, with one of his Divine Origin incarnations inside the cave and his consciousness observing from outside, he could more easily discern the cave's true form.
"The heavenly dao's laws seem to have been forcibly held back, creating a self-contained space, as if piercing through the fabric of space..."
Xu Yan paused, a sudden realization flashing through his mind. He thought of the realm above the God Image Realm—the Void Breaking Realm!
Although this cave had nothing to do with the Void Breaking Realm, its existence resembled a hole that had pierced through the very fabric of space, leaving behind a remnant cavity.
In that instant, Xu Yan felt that he had gained some insight. Perhaps he could use this peculiar cave as a reference to comprehend the martial arts of the Void Breaking Realm.
With this thought, Xu Yan sat cross-legged on the escape sea boat, his spiritual sense extending outwards to envelop the cave. Instantly, he felt as if his spiritual sense was about to be torn apart or sucked away.
At the same time, the Divine Origin incarnation within the cave began to carefully sense its surroundings, reaching out to touch the cave wall and allowing the unknown power to pull his hand into the wall.
The divine origin was shattering and then regrouping, only to be pulled apart again.
Through this process, Xu Yan felt that he had found the right direction to comprehend the martial arts of the Void Breaking Realm.
In the pitch-black cave, Xu Yan's Divine Origin incarnation reached out, its hand penetrating the cave wall as it sought to uncover the secrets within.
The hand of the incarnation continued to disintegrate and reform, repeatedly shattered by the unknown power emanating from the cave. Each time it regrouped, it grew slightly weaker.
Finally, Xu Yan decided to let the incarnation completely disintegrate, transforming it into a stream of divine origin that swept through the entire cave, even clashing with the power emanating from its depths.
Outside the cave, Xu Yan continued to meditate on the martial arts of the Void Breaking Realm, and his understanding gradually became clearer. It felt as though he was on the cusp of enlightenment, about to grasp the true meaning of breaking through the void, shattering the heavens and earth, and freeing himself from the constraints of space.
"This power, though it seems weak, can hold back the heavenly dao's laws and create a hole. It must have some extraordinary properties.
"And where does this power come from?
"The bottom of the cave isn't made of soil, but of an unknown power that seems to be both the heavenly dao's laws and a spatial foundation.
"How was this cave formed and how does it exist?
"Moreover, it's slowly expanding. This process is extremely slow, but it hasn't stopped. If this continues, the cave will eventually become enormous.
"It's as if the cave contains a small, separate space within it."
As Xu Yan continued to meditate, more questions arose about the appearance of this mysterious cave, and his understanding of the martial arts of the Void Breaking Realm deepened.
However, one question remained: How did this cave come to be?
"It's Chi Mao!" Exclaimed Su Lingxiu in surprise.
Li Xuan's lips twitched as he thought to himself that the big cat he had been raising was becoming more and more adept at putting on a show.
The crowd of martial artists looked up, exclaiming in astonishment, "It's the Demon Race!"
"Is the Demon Race here to provoke us with such a grand display?"
The Spiritual Beast Clan had rarely been mentioned since their confrontation with the Spirit Palace. Ever since then, the name of the Demon Race had spread throughout the martial world.
In the Spirit Domain, there was no longer any mention of the Spiritual Beast Clan; only the Demon Race remained.
"That's the Great Demon King!" Someone recognized the figure seated on the golden chair as the leader of the Demon Race.
Rumor had it that the Great Demon King was the founder of the Demon Race. However, aside from him, the Demon Race also had an even more powerful and mysterious figure known as the Demon Ancestor.
Below the Demon Ancestor were other formidable beings, such as the Demon Sovereign and the Demon Queen.
However, no one had ever laid eyes on the Demon Sovereign or the Demon Queen.
