As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1118
Chapter 1118 Mysterious Black Wind
After an unknown amount of time, the tremor slowly stopped. The oppressive aura that came from the third, fourth, and even higher heavens, Feng Yuntian, gradually disappeared.
Xiao Chen slowly regained his senses. The aura just now was very strong. He didn’t know who was on it, but regardless of who it was, he had to be careful of everything that followed.
But now, he had to think of a way to reach the third level first. Ten days had passed since he entered the Crimson Sun Void Realm. He didn’t know if Wei Yang, Zi Yuan, Shui Hanyan, and the others were still in Bu Yundian. Presumably, they hadn’t returned to Spirit Ruins Realm yet.
At this time, it was getting dark. Xiao Chen continued to head into the valley, wanting to see if there was a Spiritual Energy gathering point ahead. The restriction in the sky was too strong, and even his divine sense was difficult to find.
About an incense stick later, he arrived at the depths of the valley, but suddenly stopped. At that moment, he seemed to have faintly sensed an abnormal aura.
The surroundings were also very quiet. Only when the wind blew through the valley and made a whimpering sound did he withdraw all the aura from his body and continue to walk carefully inside.
After walking for a while, he arrived at a mountain stream. There were actually black winds shrouding the area in front of him. These did not look like fog. The abnormal aura Xiao Chen had sensed outside earlier should have come from these black winds.
At this moment, he slowly frowned. What were these black winds? And what was inside these black winds? Why was it shrouded here? However, it was indescribably strange.
After a long while, the black winds did not disperse, and Xiao Chen’s divine sense was unable to detect them. However, he did not dare to rashly barge into the black wind. He could only condense his True Qi and bounce towards the black wind with his fingers, wanting to see what was inside.
With a “whoosh” sound, his finger power instantly shot into the black winds. However, it was also at this moment that the black winds suddenly swept up and enveloped him.
“Shit …”
At this moment, when the black winds swept up, Xiao Chen saw that the black winds were actually covered with white bones. It seemed that they were all cultivators who had accidentally entered the valley over the years.
He didn’t expect the black wind to be so powerful. At this moment, Xiao Chen didn’t even think about it. He turned around and ran. The Ling Xian Step beneath his feet had even been used to its limit. However, the black winds behind him also caught up with him, and their speed wasn’t any slower than his.
“Buzz buzz …”
Suddenly, a numbing sound came from the black winds. It was unknown what was inside, but it seemed like it could devour so many cultivators into white bones. It was absolutely extraordinary!
Xiao Chen pushed his speed to its limit. At this moment, he looked exactly like when he was a child in Ning Village. Although he looked very miserable when he escaped, the moment he stabbed the hornet’s nest in front of all the children in the village was really handsome. Even though Shen Jing smiled for an entire month afterwards.
At this moment, the black winds behind him wanted his life.
Xiao Chen ran all the way out of the valley. He didn’t expect that the black winds behind him would still be relentlessly chasing after him. Compared to when he was young, the swarm of hornets outside the village was much more terrifying.
With a swipe of his finger, Xiao Chen lifted up a strand of sword qi and slashed towards the black wind behind him with a “whoosh” sound. The sword qi and dust rose in all directions, and with a “boom” sound, the black wind instantly dissipated.
However, in just an instant, the scattered black winds gathered again and pounced on him again.
Xiao Chen didn’t expect that the terrifying creature in the Black Wind wouldn’t be able to die. In an instant, he unleashed the Ling Xian Steps and continued to flee.
However, the black winds behind him seemed to have stared at him to death. They were relentlessly pursuing him all the way, and their speed was extremely fast.
When twilight fell, Xiao Chen had already escaped to an unknown location. The black winds behind him were still chasing after him. At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the front, “It seems that someone has come again and stopped him.”
Four figures suddenly appeared in the valley in front of him. It was unknown which sect they belonged to. It seemed that they specialized in killing and seizing treasures here.
“The person in front, stop!”
Seeing Xiao Chen arrive at an extremely fast speed, the four of them immediately raised their magic treasures. However, Xiao Chen did not have the time to pay attention to these people. With a swipe of his finger, he shook off the two people in front of him and instantly moved forward.
“Buzz buzz …”
At this moment, the black winds behind him also swept up, and the four of them were shocked, “This … what is this! Ah–”
Originally, their cultivation levels weren’t low, and they still had magic treasures to protect their bodies. However, it was only an instant before the black winds swept past them. The four of them immediately turned into four white bones, unable to even escape their primordial spirits.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Chen was even more shocked. Just what kind of ancient creature was this? It was actually so terrifying …
At this moment, there was no need to think about it. The black wind instantly swept up again. Xiao Chen quickly raised a talisman. The talisman instantly burned to ashes in the air. At this moment, his figure teleported dozens of miles forward.
Even though he was dozens of kilometers away in an instant, the black winds seemed to have locked onto him. Very quickly, they would catch up. Xiao Chen did not hesitate and immediately carried Genuine energy away. He opened the Ling Xian Step again and moved forward.
Just like this, when night fell, the last ray of light in the sky was also engulfed by the night. Suddenly, the surroundings became pitch black, and the terrifying black wind still caught up.
Xiao Chen had a bad feeling. Under this night, it was easier for him to break into some restricted areas, while the black wind behind him was even faster. What should he do now?
Ever since he stepped into the Scarlet Sun Void Realm ten days ago, he had never felt such a sense of danger. This was only the second level of Feng Yuntian, and it was already so terrifying. It was probably even more unimaginable …
“Buzz buzz …”
In the blink of an eye, the terrifying black wind swept up again. Xiao Chen did not dare to stay any longer. He could only mention Genuine energy in an instant and continue forward. However, in the boundless night, everything was unknown in front of him. If he rushed in, it would be even more dangerous!
But now, he could no longer continue to think about it. He had already witnessed the horror of the black wind just now. In an instant, he could nibble a person into white bones. It was absolutely impossible for him to resist it.
After escaping for an unknown amount of time, a Moon finally rose up, illuminating the surroundings flawlessly. Xiao Chen was able to see the path ahead clearly and increased his speed by a lot, but the black wind behind him still caught up.
It was about midnight when a valley suddenly appeared in front of him. Within the valley, ancient palaces were faintly visible, faintly emitting a restrictive aura.
The black wind behind him had already swept up. At this moment, Xiao Chen could no longer care about that much and fled into the valley in an instant.
The moment he escaped into the valley, the black winds behind him suddenly stopped and gathered into black mist that lingered at the entrance of the valley. However, they did not dare to enter.
Xiao Chen’s body was already soaked in cold sweat. At this moment, under the night breeze, he felt waves of cold intent invade him.
He turned around and saw that the terrifying black winds didn’t dare to come in. He finally heaved a sigh of relief, but the next moment, he suddenly felt a chill behind him. These black winds were so terrifying, but he didn’t dare to come in at this moment. That meant …
At this moment, under the illumination of Moon, the ancient palaces in the valley looked even more strange and gloomy. Xiao Chen held his breath. What was the use of these ancient palaces? What’s inside …
Just as he was concentrating, an ice-cold old man’s voice suddenly sounded from the depths of the valley, “People below the Twelve Realms dare to come in and die. This old man will destroy you with a single palm … Scram!”
