Chapter 1656
"Hoo!"
"If there’s no trickery going on below, then there must be something!" Su Yi’s gaze turned serious as he looked up at the Broken Sword Sea, so high that it was no longer visible.
The sky, stained in blood, illuminated the surroundings. Shadows danced, and the scent of blood filled the air.
The eerie sound of bubbling water, like the wails of a thousand ghosts, carried a dangerous aura. The already murky seabed was filled with a chilling crimson atmosphere, sending shivers down people’s spines.
If there really was something, Duanmu Xiaoman would surely know. Su Yi’s brows furrowed tighter, and his body radiated a white light once again. With unmatched speed, he descended rapidly as if he were a streak of light.
Headed towards the gradually deepening red layers of light, the darkness enshrouded the sky, and the whole space was filled with an overwhelming blood-red color.
In an instant, a delicate flowing figure, as fine as a thread, pierced through the sky and earth, as if breaking through the darkness before dawn.
"12,000 meters!"
Finally, Su Yi broke through to 12,000 meters. As he entered a new realm, his entire body felt filled with energy, and he seemed to see a blooming giant crimson flower in front of him. Its seductive vines intertwined, and the clouds in the sky turned a deep red.
Feeling a bit uncomfortable, Su Yi nearly stumbled and fell. In his stumbling, he opened his eyes again, only to see a pair of blood-red eyes, like the eyes of a dragon, roaming in the air. Upon closer inspection, he realized they were glaring at him with a fierce light. Their eyes locked, and Su Yi couldn’t help but shudder.
"What kind of illusion is this? It’s quite impressive!" Su Yi’s eyebrows twitched.
A tremendous suppressive force spread waves within Su Yi’s body, invisible but undeniable.
The blood-red power overwhelmed, as if it could devour him into fragments at any moment.
Standing amidst the blood-colored sky, Su Yi’s disheveled black hair fluttered freely. On his determined and mature face, there was a flicker of excitement.
"Ugh…" a pained groan, as if his soul was twisting and exploding, quickly escaped from Su Yi’s throat.
"Naughty boy, stay calm, the seawater here can already confuse the mind! Activate all your cultivation methods!" Iron Soul Beast shouted loudly at the doorstep.
Looking around, the surroundings were like a pool of blood, and suddenly Su Yi felt like he had fallen into a feast of blood. The hazy sky and chaotic sight made Su Yi feel like he was in a dream, floating and drifting like a rootless floating plant.
In an instant, with a loud "boom," Su Yi, who was in a daze, held onto his mind, his face slightly changing. He could clearly feel that his Heavenly Yuan Demonic Soul was being suppressed.
In Su Yi’s slightly cloudy eyes, a flicker passed by, and he adjusted his expression slightly. At this moment, Su Yi dared not be careless.
With a silent movement of his mind, he closed his eyes, and the Qi in his body rushed and surged from the Taixu Deep Sea. Let the Qi circulate endlessly, sensing the changes in the surrounding spatial rules!
"Hiss…"
Observing the flow of Qi in his meridians, the Qi, like the mighty Yangtze River, surged wave after wave towards the Heavenly Yuan Demonic Soul, ensuring that its radiance didn’t dim.
Listening to the majestic energy swirling around him like a whirlpool, the astonishing sound of bubbles was as loud as thunder.
"Roar!"
Su Yi, trapped tightly inside, guarded his last bit of intellect and soul. His handprints kept changing, and the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique spread in an instant.
The sea roared, and the space trembled.
In the midst of the overwhelming energy, the space tore apart instantly. Amidst the blood-red aura that blocked out the sky, everything seemed dead and motionless.
After a brief moment, Su Yi used the Heavens Taming Incantation, the Divine Demonic Ancient Verse, and the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique simultaneously. The wind and thunder raged, and his body was engulfed in electric sparks. He was exerting all his effort to push aside the blood, and Su Yi began to regain consciousness.
Seizing the opportunity, Su Yi found a hint of vitality in the suffocating vacuum-like blood. He instantly grabbed the chance, opened his eyes wide and shouted fiercely.
"Come out!"
The bloody and eerie atmosphere filled the space, under a bizarre and mesmerizing spell, vitality was extinguished, and all motion ceased.
Su Yi’s face grew slightly pale, while his eyes were like withered leaves in the vacuum-like environment. Yet, his gaze carried a hint of disdain.
"Unfortunately, no matter how thick it is, it’s still just water! With water, you can’t trap me!"
Suddenly, with a flip of his hand, a cold light slowly emerged as Su Yi struggled to push his palms forward.
The tiger’s paw lightly stomped, and the shadow of the clouds moved like a flowing ribbon in an instant. Along with the sharpness in its eyes, a burst of energy shot out and created two new ripples of space right before its eyes.
"Boom, boom!"
The tremendous sound of breaking through the air soared like a roar, echoing through space. The Hundred Transformations Step formed beneath his feet, and his wings behind him fluttered like the wind.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
With a push and flight, the palms opened a passage using the technique "clouds stepping on frost." The Hundred Transformations Step reached its peak, and with the added power of the White Dragon God, Su Yi moved forward a great distance in an instant.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The solidified space blood began to flow, instantly allowing the soul energy to spread smoothly once again.
Seizing the opportunity, Su Yi enveloped the space within a kilometer with his soul energy. With a loud shout, he took another swift step and charged forward.
"Huff huff!"
Breathing in fresh air with big gulps, Su Yi finally understood what it meant to feel refreshed and invigorated. With lingering fear in his heart, he spoke to the Iron Soul Beast, saying, "Old friend, the air here is thicker and more powerful than any space barrier I’ve encountered before!"
"Hmm, it’s indeed incredibly strange. We still have time to go back!"
Su Yi sneered, realizing that he had reached a depth where it wasn’t as simple as just turning back. Looking around, he noticed that the Floating Silver Wood, weapons, and natural materials for cultivation that Xi Wuqing had mentioned had all turned into scattered debris.
The entire space was devoid of life, like a beast ready to devour everything in its path, including himself, without leaving a trace.
"What a pity for all this Floating Silver Wood. There are so many precious treasures down below. Few people can reach this level normally. Such a shame!"
After a deep sigh, Su Yi suddenly felt energized. Channeling his energy, he swiftly departed.
"Let’s go! Today, whether they are human or ghost, I’ll find them and won’t let those two defeat me!"
A burning desire to prove himself welled up in Su Yi’s heart. What puzzled him was that even at this level, were those two really so much more advanced in soul cultivation than himself?
"Bang!"
In an instant, a beam of blue light shot up into the sky like an ice dragon, creating a huge deep hole in front.
The energy of blood clashed with the blue light, and Su Yi got closer and closer to the light that was 13,000 meters away.
"Bang!"
The majestic blue pillar of light reached all the way to the bottom, causing thunderous sounds to echo in the depths of the blood sea. The already tumultuous space began to tremble again.
