Chapter 1282: Chapter 705: Bridge over the Sea Chapter 1282: Chapter 705: Bridge over the Sea Logan stood at the forefront of the crowd, his eyes revealing a hint of bewilderment, as if confused by the unknown world he was about to step into. He was completely unaware that the City Lord and the other attendants behind him were staring at him with peculiar looks, as if scrutinizing an unknown enigma.
“Is there any other way to get through here?” Logan suddenly asked, his voice shattering the surrounding silence. He gazed at the deep and mysterious entrance of the Space-Time Corridor, a sense of foreboding welling up within him–aware that it concealed infinite power and unknown dangers.
The City Lord, upon hearing this, lapsed into thought. His brow furrowed as if he was trying hard to recall something. The other attendants exchanged glances too, a hint of helplessness flickering in their eyes. They all knew that, apart from stepping directly into it, there was no other way to traverse the Space-Time Corridor. Yet, it was the danger and uncertainty within that made them fearful.
Logan noticed their anomaly, his gaze sharpening instantly. “Why won't you speak? Spit it out, or don't force me to be ruthless with you!” His words carried a hint of mockery and threat, as if he had seen through their thoughts.
The City Lord sighed upon hearing this. He had his doubts about Logan's identity, but now it seemed that Logan had already uncovered some secrets they were reluctant to reveal. He shook his head resignedly and decided to speak.
“Actually, we did not want to withhold information from you, but…” The City Lord hesitated, searching for the right words, “the Space-Time Corridor is a mysterious passageway connecting various worlds, filled with monumental power and endless mysteries. However, to pass through, one not only needs immense strength and courage but also a profound understanding and control over space and time. We kept quiet because we were worried you'd enter rashly out of curiosity and meet with unforeseeable danger.”
Logan listened to the City Lord's explanation, and the confusion in his heart began to dissipate. He nodded in understanding, but internally he resolved that since he had arrived here, he could not return empty-handed. He must find a way to safely pass through the Space-Time Corridor and explore the unknown Spirit World.
“So, do you have any advice or hints that might help me to pass through more safely?” Logan asked, the determination and resolve clear in his eyes.
The City Lord looked at Logan's resolute gaze and couldn't help but admire him internally. He knew that despite the young man's age, he possessed extraordinary courage and wisdom. The City Lord pondered for a moment before slowly saying: “Actually, there is a legend that says deep within the Space-Time Corridor lies the Key of Time and Space. This key holds the power to control time and space, allowing its bearer to traverse the worlds safely. However, whether this legend is true or not, we cannot be certain.”
Upon hearing this, a glimmer sparked in Logan's eyes. He knew that this legend might be the sole clue for traversing the Space-Time Corridor. He looked at the City Lord gratefully, then firmly stepped into the entrance of the corridor.
“No matter what dangers and challenges lie ahead, I will march forward with bravery!” Logan's voice echoed through the Space-Time Corridor as his figure gradually vanished into the profound and mysterious passage. Meanwhile, the City Lord and attendants stood in place, watching him depart, their hearts filled with hope and good wishes.
In the gloomy and profound corridors of the Demon Clan Castle, candlelight flickered, casting mottled shadows. Logan and the City Lord stood before an ancient and mysterious stone door, the sole entrance to the Space-Time Corridor. The atmosphere around them was abnormally heavy, as if the air itself had solidified.
“Master, perhaps you are unaware, but actually, the Demon Race cannot pass through the Space-Time Corridor.” The City Lord's voice was low and hoarse, as if revealing a long-buried secret, “In fact, hundreds of years ago, we could freely travel between worlds, but then, everything changed.”
He paused, his eyes flashing fear and helplessness. “The Demon Race was dealt with by those from the Old Home… They not only sealed the Space-Time Corridor but also set up numerous prohibitions, preventing our Demon Race from passing through.” After speaking, he began to sigh heavily, seemingly overwhelmed by the weight of that grim history.
————————
Logan listened quietly, the light of contemplation flickering in his eyes. No wonder the City Lord had that expression earlier; behind it lay such a profound historical story. He coughed lightly and slowly began to speak, his voice tinged with resilience and persistence: “Is there really no other way?”
The City Lord shook his head, his gaze filled with helplessness and despair. “For hundreds of years, countless Strong Ones from our Demon Race have tried to break the seal, but all have failed without exception. The seal on the Space-Time Corridor is too formidable. It is not something we can shake.” However, his tone held a barely detectable hint of anticipation, as if he was waiting for some miracle to happen.
Logan fell silent for a moment, his gaze resting on the City Lord before saying slowly: “But City Lord, don't forget, I am very powerful. Perhaps, I really can find a way through the Space-Time Corridor.” His voice was calm, yet it held immense confidence and determination.
Upon hearing this, the City Lord was momentarily stunned. He looked up at Logan, surprise and confusion flashing in his eyes. He was indeed aware of Logan's extraordinary abilities, but the seal on the Space-Time Corridor was not just powerful; even the top Strong Ones of the Demon Race were helpless against it. Yet, seeing Logan's firm gaze, he found himself wavering involuntarily.
