Chapter 642: Spatial Origin, The Fourth Layer of Chaos Immortal Art
Jiuhua Sect.
Yu Changge, Gong Yuyuan, Cheng Qinghui, and others sat in a circle.
"Sect Master, is there still no news from the Grand Elders?" Cheng Qinghui asked, looking at Yu Changge, whose hair was now half-gray.
Cheng Qinghui sighed inwardly as she thought of Cen Zijin and Chu Ning, who had both gone missing in Demon Mountain. She had been heartbroken, but she never imagined that after learning from Qin Changkong that Chu Ning had been swallowed by a spatial rift, Yu Changge's hair would turn half-gray in just half a year.
Yu Changge shook his head, his voice low. "I waited outside Demon Mountain for a few months and even sought help from the True Martial Alliance, asking Peng Yuzhu to accompany me into the outer domain of Demon Mountain. But we found no trace of Chu Shidi."
Upon hearing the news from Qin Changkong, Yu Changge felt as if the sky had fallen. After careful consideration, he believed that with Chu Ning's abilities, it was unlikely for him to have perished so easily, especially since Qin Changkong mentioned that Chu Ning had been in a dominant position at the time.
Therefore, Yu Changge took the initiative to head north, first searching carefully near Demon Mountain. He then went to the True Martial Alliance to meet with Huo Junrui.
Huo Junrui shared his speculations with Yu Changge, which gave Yu Changge a glimmer of hope. Huo Junrui, eager to maintain good relations, arranged for Peng Yuzhu, a Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who had been to the Middle Domain, to accompany Yu Changge into Demon Mountain once more.
However, Huo Junrui repeatedly emphasized that they must not enter the Inner Domain through the Nine Caves Peak region, and they should keep their stay brief.
Thus, Yu Changge and Peng Yuzhu entered Demon Mountain again. After searching in both the outer and middle domains for two days without success, they had no choice but to leave Demon Mountain.
Hearing Yu Changge's words, Gong Yuyuan's eyes also filled with a hint of gloom. "Could it be that Grand Elder has truly perished? Is heaven so determined to prevent the rise of our Jiuhua Sect? It's not easy to find such an extraordinary talent..."
"Elder Gong!" Yu Changge interrupted Gong Yuyuan with a wave of his hand, then spoke with conviction, "Let's not speak of Chu Shidi's demise again. I believe that if there's anyone in this world who can survive such a situation, it must be Chu Shidi! Remember, Grand Elder possesses incredible abilities. In the Golden Spirit Seed Spirit Region, when he was swept away by a spatial storm, many lost their lives, but he returned unscathed and even advanced in cultivation."
Hearing Yu Changge's words, Gong Yuyuan and the others' eyes lit up. "Indeed, although spatial rifts are more dangerous than spatial storms, Grand Elder's cultivation has reached the level of divine insight. Perhaps a miracle is possible."
"A miracle will happen!" Yu Changge raised his head and looked up at the sky, murmuring.
Turning back to the crowd, he said, "What we need to do now is to deepen our cultivation. This time, because of Chu Shidi, many sects have sent us various treasures obtained from Demon Mountain. We must make good use of these treasures, not only to get through this period without Chu Shidi but also to strive for each of us to advance to the next level of cultivation! The Jiuhua Sect must revive, and it will!"
"Yes, Sect Master!" Several Nascent Soul cultivators responded in unison and then left one by one.
Only Yu Changge remained, sitting alone at the round table for a long time without getting up.
...
Within the void space, Chu Ning, unable to rely on his divine perception, had an extremely weak sense of orientation. He could only rely on his body's instincts to feel his surroundings.
This sensation was somewhat similar to what he had experienced on Spiritless Island.
At this moment, Chu Ning decided to use his body to sense the subtle changes directly.
However, he still had no success.
Chu Ning did not lose heart, as he had nothing else to do in his boredom.
Without light or sound, as if deprived of all senses, his body gradually became numb, then slowly regained some sensation.
His senses became sharper.
"Spatial Power!"
After an unknown amount of time, Chu Ning finally felt a faint fluctuation of spatial power.
It was extremely subtle, but he managed to capture it.
"This spatial power seems a bit different from what I felt in the outside world."
After sensing the spatial power, Chu Ning became perplexed.
It was a very subtle feeling.
He clearly knew that this was spatial power, but the fluctuation pattern was unlike anything he had experienced before, whether using the Void Space Rift or the Void Escape technique.
The spatial power here seems to be of a higher level, a sensation that is not the oppressive feeling of essence energy or magical energy. It's quite strange."
Chu Ning carefully sensed and contemplated this peculiarity.
The perception of spatial power gave him a glimmer of hope amidst the void and confusion.
Although he still couldn't escape this void space, Chu Ning no longer felt the same torment.
As he immersed himself in this perception, his understanding of the fluctuations in spatial power became increasingly clear.
At a certain moment, Chu Ning suddenly had a realization.
"This spatial power is very similar to the Symbolic Origin Law I comprehended during my study of the Symbolic Origin Law and its application in talisman crafting.
It's also similar to the Thunder Origin or Ice Origin I felt when comprehending the Chaos Immortal Art.
Could this be the original form of spatial power?"
Chu Ning felt a sudden enlightenment, and a hint of joy arose within him.
If this was indeed as he thought, then understanding the origin of spatial power here would undoubtedly greatly enhance his ability to utilize it.
This had already been proven in his previous experiences with talisman crafting and the Chaos Immortal Art.
With this realization, Chu Ning's mind became completely engrossed in comprehending spatial power.
He carefully sensed every fluctuation of spatial power.
The Gale Wind Dart absorbed the frequency and rhythm of spatial power.
Why could some spatial power be absorbed by the Gale Wind Dart, while others seemed to resist it?
Gradually, his understanding of the origin of spatial power in this place improved.
Chu Ning felt that his control over spatial power was constantly strengthening.
Chu Ning even felt that if he were to use Void Escape at this moment, he could teleport much further than the usual hundred zhang.
Two hundred or even three hundred zhang would be within his reach.
"Can this spatial power only be used in secret techniques?
Can it not be integrated into cultivation?"
As Chu Ning's understanding of spatial power deepened, a thought suddenly emerged in his mind.
Before this, his plan for the Chaos Immortal Art was to first integrate thunder and ice attributes into his cultivation, and then proceed to integrate wind attributes.
But now, Chu Ning suddenly felt that he didn't need to limit himself to cultivating spirit energy.
Isn't spatial power also a form of energy in the world? The third layer of the Chaos Immortal Art—cultivation by integrating spatial power!
With this thought in mind, Chu Ning couldn't suppress it any longer.
He began to continuously test the feasibility of this idea in his mind.
He thought about how to absorb spatial power into his body and merge it with the magical energy within.
If he were outside, Chu Ning would never have such an opportunity.
After all, spatial power is extremely subtle, and being able to complete a secret technique by relying on its fluctuations is already an extraordinary achievement.
But now, being in this void and comprehending the origin of space has given Chu Ning this possibility.
Without the Ten Thousand Dharmas Incense, he couldn't use divine perception to sense or extend his magical energy to capture it.
All he could do was rely on his instincts and return to his original state.
Chu Ning repeatedly comprehended and attempted this.
His powerful divine perception and magical energy allowed him to cultivate without rest.
When he felt truly exhausted, he would cultivate the True Spirit Art or refine pills to practice the Chaos Immortal Art.
This was different from his time on Spiritless Island.
At this moment, his divine perception and magical energy couldn't extend outside his body to sense or use, but within his body, or more precisely, within the Gale Wind Dart's barrier, it was usable.
In this void, he had no concept of time.
He didn't know if it was a day, a month, or even a year.
At a certain moment, spatial power flowed through the Gale Wind Dart, continuously entering his body.
Within Chu Ning's body, the Chaos Immortal Art circulated, and the spatial power that entered seemed to find its place, merging with his magical energy.
At first, only a small amount merged, but gradually, more and more spatial power was integrated.
Eventually, all his magical energy completely merged with spatial power.
"The fourth layer of the Chaos Immortal Art!"
Within the barrier of the Gale Wind Dart, Chu Ning couldn't help but exclaim.
Having not spoken for a long time, even this exclamation felt somewhat strained.
But he couldn't suppress the hint of joy in his tone.
After comprehending the third layer of the Chaos Immortal Art in Northern Cold and cultivating it, Chu Ning thought it would be unknown when he would comprehend the next stage.
Unexpectedly, entering this void space led to an unforeseen fusion with the power of space, allowing him to comprehend the fourth layer of the Chaos Immortal Art.
At this moment, Chu Ning had a strong intuition that with the cultivation of the fourth layer of the Chaos Immortal Art, he would eventually be able to reach the Demigod Realm.
"The strength of my magical energy is already sufficient. Perhaps one day, when I can truly merge with the Origin Power, stepping into the Soul Transformation Stage will not be difficult."
Chu Ning's eyes flashed with determination.
Although the void space was still pitch-black, his prolonged understanding of the origin of spatial power seemed to allow him to perceive something.
"The fluctuations of spatial power!"
Chu Ning chuckled softly.
He knew that this wasn't a real perception but rather an enhanced sensitivity to spatial power after cultivating the fourth layer of the Chaos Immortal Art.
At this moment, he could clearly sense the fluctuations of spatial power.
"But how can I get out of this void space?"
At this moment, Chu Ning truly began to ponder this question.
His exceptionally acute perception of spatial power gave rise to a glimmer of hope within him.
In the following days, Chu Ning continued to cultivate the fourth layer of the Chaos Immortal Art, while also paying close attention to any anomalies within the void space's spatial power.
"Hmm?"
One day, Chu Ning noticed something unusual.
He found that when the spatial power fluctuations reached the front, they seemed to rebound as if hitting an invisible barrier.
In the past, Chu Ning would not have been able to detect such anomalies.
But now, this feeling was incredibly clear.
"The spatial barrier is rebounding, which means there's a spatial boundary point nearby!"
Chu Ning felt his heart warm.
He attempted to approach the spatial barrier by relying on the fluctuations of spatial power, protected by the Gale Wind Dart.
As he got closer, Chu Ning's perception became more apparent.
"This is indeed a spatial barrier. If I can find the spatial boundary point here, I might be able to enter directly!"
Upon entering this void, Chu Ning felt hope for the first time that he could escape this place.
He began to carefully search and sense along the spatial barrier.
In the past, with the help of Bai Ling's divine secret technique, he could have easily located the spatial boundary point.
However, after entering this place, Chu Ning did not open the Spirit Beast Sack again.
After all, he wasn't sure if Bai Ling could withstand this environment.
Fortunately, Chu Ning's understanding of spatial power was now far superior to before.
After carefully searching and sensing along the spatial barrier, Chu Ning quickly discovered the existence of the spatial boundary point.
"Huff!"
Chu Ning exhaled softly and channeled his magical energy, focusing it on the Gale Wind Dart.
Then, without hesitation, he dove into the spatial boundary point.
The next moment, a powerful wave of spatial power acted upon the Gale Wind Dart.
Accompanying it was a strong resistance.
"Such powerful spatial power fluctuations! This space is not as simple as it seems!"
Chu Ning's mind flashed with this thought, but he wasn't the least bit afraid.
Although the spatial power fluctuations were strong, they were still weaker than the origin of spatial power within the void space.
After briefly sensing the fluctuations of spatial power, the fourth layer of the Chaos Immortal Art within Chu Ning's body quickly activated.
The Gale Wind Dart, now aided by the spatial power, directly penetrated the spatial boundary point.
"Pop!"
The next moment, Chu Ning felt as if he had broken through some kind of barrier.
The pitch-black void vanished in an instant, and the sudden appearance of light made Chu Ning want to close his eyes.
But the next moment, the return of his divine perception, magical energy, and all his senses to his body made his eyes light up with surprise.
His body, which had been falling, was quickly stabilized by Chu Ning.
Chu Ning, standing in mid-air, finally got a clear view of the world before him.
The blue sky, the vast land, and numerous spirit herbs and fruits that he found incredibly rare.
What brought even greater joy to Chu Ning was the abundant spiritual energy in this place.
The concentration of spiritual energy here exceeded that of all his previous cultivation sites!
However, his divine perception revealed that this was just a small space, no more than a hundred li in size.
"Such a small space, yet it has such dense spiritual energy. I wonder what kind of place this is..."
As soon as this thought crossed Chu Ning's mind, his gaze suddenly shifted to the distance.
"Formation Array!"
Because at that moment, he discovered two formation arrays set up a thousand zhang away.
