As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1286
Chapter 1286 Mysterious Storm
The atmosphere at the scene instantly froze. Even those who were far away on the hillside felt the bone-piercing chill coming from the two of them.
No one spoke in the entire valley. Xiao Chen and Tai Huazi brushed past each other and slowly walked forward step by step. Everyone held their breath and focused. Perhaps from today onwards, everyone here knew a name. This name was called Venerable Lord Lustless.
In the past, in this boundless world, he had been chased after by someone. From today onwards, if anyone wanted to chase after him again, then it was best to first consider whether he could afford such a price.
The people in the distance watched him walk over. For some reason, there was an inexplicable chill. Apart from Xiao Meng’er, the expression on her face had never changed.
After Xiao Chen walked into the valley, Gongsun Yin and the others immediately followed him. Although they were from the Bone Corrosion Lands, they had already negotiated with Yu Ding’s forces in advance. Now, they only needed to consider how the people from the various forces could cooperate well this time and how they could use everyone’s strength to open up the gap between the Immortal Dimensions.
When they arrived at the depths of the valley, they saw a storm condensed in front of them. That was the entrance to the gap in the Immortal Dimension, also known as the “Gate of the Immortal Dimension”.
The entrance to the Immortal Dimension sounded pretty good, but the huge storm in front of him was no less dangerous than any void crack. Anything that was tangible would be sucked in once it approached, and it would be destroyed in the blink of an eye.
This was the first time many of the people present had come to the Ancient Immortal Ruins, and this was also the first time they had seen the entrance to the Immortal Dimension. That terrifying storm was like a bottomless whirlpool. Anyone who approached it would be unable to escape destruction.
Cultivators of the First or Second Realm, even those of the Third Realm, rashly approached the storm. The moment their bodies perished, even their divine souls were unable to escape.
Therefore, every time the entrance to the Immortal Dimension opened, countless cultivators would be left outside to condense their true energy to protect the people who entered Ancient Immortal Realm and allow them to enter safely.
Otherwise, even if the entrance to the Immortal Dimension was opened and they rashly entered, they would most likely die in the gap between the Immortal Dimensions. This was the experience the world had gained over the past tens of thousands of years.
This time, it was unknown if it was because a large amount of spiritual energy had gradually poured into the world in recent decades. Everyone could clearly feel that this “storm of the Immortal Dimension” was much stronger and had a trace of a mysterious feeling. Right now, no one was able to get close to it.
Unless it was a cultivator at or above the Six Realms, he might be able to explore further, but now that the Annihilation Era had yet to arrive, where would he go to find a cultivator at or above the Six Realms?
Could it be that he really wanted to go to the ends of the earth and find the ancestors of the various secluded families? However, even cultivators at the Six Realms were mostly suppressed by the invisible Laws of Heaven and Earth.
Therefore, it seemed that only by condensing all of the cultivators’ power here and gathering them into a tower would it be possible to completely open the Immortal Dimension Gate and escort the people who were going to Ancient Immortal Realm into it safely.
“Your Excellency … be careful!”
Seeing that Xiao Chen was still heading towards the Celestial Storm, Zi Yuan and Bai Luan immediately stepped forward and stopped him.
“It doesn’t matter. I’ll get closer so that I can put my divine sense into it.”
Right now, everyone didn’t know what was going on inside the storm, and Xiao Chen’s divine sense was probably unmatched here, so he was the only one who came forward to take a look.
However, if even he couldn’t find anything, then it would probably be troublesome this time. After all, this storm in the Immortal Dimension was much stronger than before, and no one expected it.
“Zi Yuan, get everyone over here.”
Bai Luan immediately sent a secret message to Zi Yuan. Then, she followed Xiao Chen and approached the storm in the Immortal Dimension. Everyone in the distance held their breath and focused. Before, none of them dared to approach this terrifying storm.
Soon, all 24 people from Night Shade arrived and quickly surrounded Xiao Chen. First, they were afraid that if they got close to this terrifying storm, something unexpected would happen to Xiao Chen.
Secondly, it was to guard against some people present today. Now that Xiao Chen was about to approach this terrifying storm, he could sense it calmly with his divine sense. If someone pushed him and pushed him into the storm at this moment, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Slowly, they were getting closer and closer to the mysterious storm. At this moment, not only were the twenty-four people in Night Shade extremely nervous, the people outside Lustless Heaven were also extremely nervous. Even the others were watching with bated breath. Every move of Xiao Chen seemed to affect their hearts.
The distance between them was less than a hundred feet. Xiao Chen could clearly feel the terrifying aura of the storm in the Immortal Dimension. He could not continue forward. Otherwise, there might be an accident. This accident was something he could not afford to endure at the moment.
“Excellency” Bai Luan and Zi Yuan were also very nervous. Night Shade had always been calm and had never been as nervous as today.
“Mm, just stay here. There’s no need to follow me.”
Xiao Chen nodded lightly. After saying that, he walked another 70-80 feet forward. The storm in the Immortal Dimension was already extremely heavy. Zi Yuan was shocked, “Your Excellency! You can’t continue forward!”
Their cultivation was inferior to Xiao Chen’s, and they could no longer follow him. Even with the protection of true qi, they were nothing in front of the storm in the Immortal Dimension.
“Yes.”
Xiao Chen nodded and finally stopped. Now was not the time for him to show off. Wei Yang was still waiting for him to save him. Of course, he could not have any accidents here.
He condensed his fingers and closed his eyes. He used his divine sense to shoot towards the storm in the Immortal Dimension. Actually, many people had attempted to penetrate the storm with their divine sense to explore what was inside.
However, after so many days, no one succeeded in the end. Their divine senses were simply unable to pass through this storm, not even those whose cultivation had already entered the Sage realm.
At this moment, Xiao Chen sent out his first Spiritual Sense like an arrow and flew over in an instant. However, just as he encountered the storm, his Spiritual Sense dissipated, causing his body to tremble violently. It was as if even his Spiritual Soul had been shaken.
“Your Excellency!”
Zi Yuan and Bai Luan’s expressions changed. Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and said, “Don’t come over. I’m fine.”
The people in the distance also held their breaths. Their expressions gradually became a little nervous. Although they couldn’t experience it personally, they thought it was somewhat dangerous. If it was an ordinary person, their souls might have been damaged.
At this time, an old man dressed in Qingyi transmitted his voice to Xiao Chen from afar, “Lord Xiao, that storm in the Immortal Dimension is so strong that even our divine sense was unable to penetrate it. You must be careful and not directly collide with it. Otherwise, you will be extremely vulnerable to damage to your divine soul.”
“Thank you for reminding me, sir. I understand.”
Xiao Chen replied. He condensed his divine sense again. He had learned a lesson from the past. This time, he no longer acted recklessly. Instead, he carefully approached his divine sense.
Everyone in the distance slowly held their breaths, and their expressions gradually became nervous. Previously, they had been unable to detect the situation inside the storm.
He didn’t know what kind of existence was inside, and he couldn’t even detect Ancient Immortal Realm, so now, he seemed to have placed all his hopes on Xiao Chen.
