As the Universe Turns - Chapter 610
Chapter 610 Restriction Of Entry
“Junior Brother!”
Shen Quezi was suddenly shocked. In an instant, he also flew towards the Demon Palace. However, when he entered, he was blocked by an extremely heavy restriction. He already had the cultivation of the Cave Ruins Realm, so the restriction was naturally countless times heavier than that of Xiao Chen and Xuan Jizi.
Inside the Demon Palace, layers of restrictions were about a hundred zhang away. Xiao Chen entered, and it was as if he had entered a marsh. He was unable to move an inch. He could only cautiously resist the restrictions and slowly head inside.
Originally, it was only a hundred feet away, and it could be rushed over in the blink of an eye. However, the restrictions here were no small matter. If he forcefully broke through, no matter how high his cultivation base was, it would definitely be destroyed in an instant.
Therefore, at this moment, Xiao Chen could only move forward bit by bit, avoiding some extremely heavy restrictions as much as he could, and enduring those restrictions that he could withstand. However, even so, it would probably take at least three to five days for him to break through this restriction.
“Boom!”
Right at this moment, the entire Demon Palace suddenly rang with thunder. A strong light flashed and a purple lightning bolt suddenly shot towards Xiao Chen. He was trapped within the restriction and could not dodge to the side. He could only raise his palms to resist the purple lightning bolt.
“Bang!”
With a sharp sound, lightning flashed. Although he had condensed Genuine energy on both of his palms, the flesh and skin on his palms had been burnt by the violet lightning. Instantly, bursts of heartbreaking pain came from his palms.
Xuan Jizi was a few zhang behind him. The two of them had already entered the restriction and had no way of turning back. When they saw how powerful the purple lightning was, Xuan Jizi’s heart trembled. His cultivation was still above Xiao Chen’s, so the restriction he had to endure would definitely be even heavier.
“Boom!”
There was a loud explosion. Finally, a violet lightning shot towards him. Xuan Jizi’s expression changed. He suddenly gathered Genuine energy in his palm and raised his palm to resist the violet lightning. With a similar “bang”, the violet lightning struck his hand. A wisp of green smoke immediately burned his palm and emitted a charred stench.
Xuan Jizi immediately felt a burst of heartbreaking pain. Originally, his cultivation had reached his level. Even if his palms were charred, he wouldn’t feel much pain. However, the restrictions in the Demon Palace were extraordinary.
Seeing that the next violet lightning was about to strike, Xuan Jizi didn’t even think about it. He formed a seal with both his hands and chanted an incantation. He took out an immortal sword with white light. This was his life treasure, and it was naturally extremely powerful. However, if he wanted to resist the restrictions in the Demon Palace, the treasure would definitely be damaged. In the end, it would even be completely destroyed.
However, he had no other choice. The restrictions in the Demon Palace were too heavy. He had to use a magic treasure to defend against them. Otherwise, not to mention a hundred zhang distance, even a fifty zhang distance might not be able to survive. In the end, he could only die inside the restrictions.
“Boom!”
Another purple lightning struck. Xuan Jizi swiftly raised his Immortal Sword. With a “bang”, the purple lightning struck the Immortal Sword. The entire sword trembled violently, and the sword light on it dimmed a little.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was also being bombarded by violet lightning. However, he didn’t have any magic treasures to protect himself. Fuxi Qin didn’t need to say anything. It was impossible for him to take out the violet lightning. Moreover, Di Gujian’s sword qi was too strong. It would probably make the restriction even heavier, so he couldn’t take it out.
Xiao Chen had no choice but to defend himself against the violet lightning bolts. Very quickly, the violet lightning restriction burned the flesh and skin of his hands, causing bursts of pain in his heart. It was definitely something that an extraordinary person could endure.
However, every time he thought of the injustice he had suffered back then and jumped off the Immortal Burial Cliff, the injustice still hadn’t been cleared. Every time he thought of the scene of Ning Village being destroyed, and the desolation of the small grave behind the courtyard at dusk, the pain in his heart increased a hundredfold!
“Ah!”
The profound energy in his palms shook and forcefully crushed the two purple thunder bolts. Xiao Chen’s eyes turned blood red again. He actually quickened his pace and walked into the Demon Palace. In this way, the restrictions he would have to endure would also be much stronger!
“Rumble!”
This time, not only did violet lightning attack him, there were also waves of Nether Flames and countless sharp sword Qi that attacked him.
If these terrifying restrictions were placed outside, none of them would not be frightening. Whether it was the purple-black Nether Flame or the blood-colored Sword Qi that symbolized death, the slightest touch could damage one’s cultivation, or even destroy one’s body and spirit!
Behind him, Xuan Jizi saw that he had attracted countless restrictions, and his expression immediately changed. He shouted, “Brat! Hurry up and stop! If you continue forward, you will undoubtedly die!”
Xiao Chen was his only chance to enter the Cave Ruins Realm. It was also because of this opportunity that he took the risk to break into the restriction of the Demon Palace. Now, he was in a dilemma. All of this was just to seize Xiao Chen’s good fortune and enter the Cave Ruins Realm in one go. However, if Xiao Chen died, he would have nothing left.
However, at this moment, Xiao Chen ignored them and continued to move forward. Although his speed was very slow, the restrictions he drew were no small matter.
Xuan Jizi was shocked to see him from behind, afraid that he would be destroyed by a purple lightning bolt, burned to ashes by the Nether Flame, or shattered by the Death Sword Qi.
After an incense stick of time passed, Xiao Chen seemed to have finally regained his senses. He suddenly stopped. The place in front of him looked like a strange cliff abyss, stopping him from moving forward.
Seeing him stop, Xuan Jizi finally heaved a sigh of relief. Without hesitation, he immediately raised his Immortal Sword and slowly moved forward.
At this moment, outside the Demon Palace, Shen Quezi looked inside with a serious expression. The restrictions in the Demon Palace were too heavy for him to enter no matter what.
Over the years, he had helped Xuan Jizi everywhere. He had even defied the Heavenly Dao and secretly seized countless people’s Soul Essence to help Xuan Jizi cultivate. This time, he had taken the risk of capturing Xiao Chen with his own hands in order to help Xuan Jizi enter the Cave Ruins Realm.
But now, he knew that no matter what, he would not be able to enter the Demon Palace’s restriction. The only thing he could do next was to rely on Xuan Jizi himself.
“Senior Brother, I won’t disappoint you …”
As if he could see Shen Quezi’s gaze, Xuan Jizi clenched his teeth and tried his best to protect his body with Genuine energy, resisting the restrictions around him and slowly chasing after Xiao Chen step by step.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was also using Genuine energy’s protection to keep moving forward. The distance of a hundred feet had never been as far as this. Not to mention forcefully breaking through the Demon Palace’s restriction would cause ashes to fly into the air. Even if he didn’t, he couldn’t rush through the restriction and could only move a little bit.
Seven days passed like this. During these seven days, Shen Quezi stood outside the hall without leaving. Every night, those wandering souls would gather again. However, with his cultivation, these wandering souls could not avoid it.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was finally about to break through the hundred zhang restriction in the Demon Palace. He was roughly thirty to forty zhang away from Xuan Jizi.
At this moment, Xuan Jizi could only look at him from afar, but he didn’t dare to catch up. After all, the restrictions he had to endure were much stronger than Xiao Chen’s. If he were to be careless, his body and soul would be destroyed.
