"One year?"
Dugu Bo looked surprised. Bibi Dong actually intended to enter seclusion for an entire year. His thoughts raced—if he wanted to protect Bibi Dong from harm, he could not leave for too long during that time.
"Alright!"
After hesitating for a while, Dugu Bo ultimately agreed to Bibi Dong's request and promised to protect her for the year.
"Thank you!"
Bibi Dong was overjoyed and voiced her gratitude.
"Her Royal Highness, the Saintess, why not enter seclusion within the Ice and Fire Duality Eye? There is a Poison Array I set up around it, as well as the deterrence of the powerful soul beasts in Sunset Forest. Ordinary people will not come disturb you."
"Besides, the Ice and Fire Duality Eye is filled with dense Soul Power, which will greatly aid your cultivation. Xiao Chen has already claimed this place for Spirit Hall."
Dugu Bo suggested the ideal place for her seclusion.
"Alright!"
After considering it, Bibi Dong agreed. She knew Luo Chen had occupied the Ice and Fire Duality Eye, so it surely had something extraordinary about it. She would stay here for a year.
Angel Sacred Realm.
Ever since entering, Luo Chen and Qian Renxue had been continuously following the traces of Angel Divine Power, heading in a specific direction.
It was as though this path had no end. Nearly two hours had passed, yet they still had not reached their destination.
Luo Chen's expression turned grave. At last, he sensed that something was wrong. He immediately took Qian Renxue's hand and stopped where they were, carefully examining the movements around them.
"What is it?"
Qian Renxue turned to look at Luo Chen and asked softly.
She did not understand why Luo Chen had suddenly stopped her. She would feel more at ease if they reached the Angel Sacred Realm sooner, lest some unforeseen change occur along the way.
"Something is wrong. I remember your grandfather saying that, under the guidance of Angel Divine Power, it would only take half an hour to reach the destination. But nearly two hours have passed now. Perhaps we've run into trouble."
Luo Chen explained solemnly. A suspicion arose in his heart—this was most likely Angel God's doing.
After all, the Angel Sacred Realm was where Angel God had attained divinity. Angel God would certainly know everything that happened within it.
Since someone had taken away his inheritor, he would inevitably vent his hatred and revenge upon Qian Renxue.
With a powerful Angel God making moves behind the scenes, even if Angel God could not directly attack them, he could still place them in an inescapable predicament.
God Realm, Angel God Temple.
The towering, majestic palace radiated resplendent Angel Divine Power, inspiring fear and making others afraid to approach.
A woman seated at the head of the hall raised her eyes toward the void before her. Ripples of space appeared, forming an image that showed Luo Chen and Qian Renxue.
"Interesting. You actually noticed."
"Since that is the case, what happens next will depend on your fate."
Angel God revealed a meaningful smile. Originally, she truly had no way to deal with Qian Renxue, but who would have thought an opportunity would come so quickly?
They actually dared enter the Angel Sacred Realm she had left behind. On her territory, were they not entirely at her mercy?
Although she did not dare attack them openly, the Angel Sacred Realm was under her control. Everything that followed would depend on their own luck.
Whether they lived or died would be decided by fate!
She did not dare go too far. If that person discovered it, she would likely die without a whole corpse.
Rumble! Rumble!
A moment later, Angel God lightly raised her right hand and pointed at the void. Ripples immediately emerged, and the phantom image before her shattered with a crash.
Within the endless darkness, Luo Chen and Qian Renxue suddenly discovered that the Angel Divine Power ahead of them had quietly vanished.
Rumble! Rumble!
Before they could react, the dark expanse they stood in shattered like a mirror. A profound vortex appeared beneath their feet, and they were sucked into it without any power to resist.
"This is bad!"
Luo Chen's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly pulled Qian Renxue into his arms as surging Soul Power flowed through his body, blocking out the rampant Space Power and Darkness Power around them.
Space Power was extraordinarily mysterious. It was not something a mere Soul Elder like him could withstand.
"Nine-Colored Staff Martial Soul, First Soul Skill: Light of Life."
Luo Chen released his Nine-Colored Staff. The first ten-thousand-year Black Soul Ring abruptly lit up, and dense life force enveloped the two of them.
Luo Chen once again pushed the Nine-Colored Staff Martial Soul in his hand with all his strength, forming a protective barrier that isolated them within it.
Just as expected.
As the nine-colored barrier appeared, the Space Power around them was blocked outside by Luo Chen's Martial Soul and could not come any closer.
"Brother Chen, what should we do?"
Protected by Luo Chen, Qian Renxue could not help growing anxious. At the same time, she released her Twelve-Winged Angel Martial Soul and shared the terrifying pressure with Luo Chen, resisting the chaotic Space Power around them.
"From here on, we can only leave it to fate."
Luo Chen wore a helpless expression. With the Soul Power in their bodies, they might not be able to hold on for long. He could only hope they would reach the ground soon.
But heaven did not grant their wish. At that moment, an unexpected change occurred.
With a whoosh.
A golden ray silently tore through the endless darkness, pierced through space, and arrived at Luo Chen's side.
The golden light radiated an irresistible aura and struck the nine-colored barrier around Luo Chen directly.
With a crack.
The nine-colored barrier, which had originally been able to endure for a while longer, let out a shattering sound. Then, one cracking sound after another rang out in quick succession.
"Damn it!"
Luo Chen and Qian Renxue used all their strength to repair the barrier, but Luo Chen's face became incomparably grim. As expected, Angel God had made a move in secret.
Was he openly challenging the laws of the entire God Realm? Then again, that group of gods was not made up of good people either.
It seemed that he would have to go to the God Realm someday and settle this debt with Angel God.
"System..."
Luo Chen was about to seek the system's help, but before he could finish speaking, Angel Divine Power instantly rained down golden light, destroying the nine-colored barrier Luo Chen had repaired with an invincible attack.
With a bang.
The two were struck by the terrifying divine power and immediately suffered severe injuries, falling unconscious as they slowly descended toward an unknown place through the darkness ravaged by Space Power.
"What should we do? We can't offer any help in their current predicament."
At that moment, the Ice Dragon King hidden within the Life Soul Bone saw this scene and spoke anxiously.
"Damn it! It's those greedy gods again! Once I successfully revive in the future, I will turn the God Realm upside down!"
The Fire Dragon King let out bursts of dragon roars and bellowed in furious rage.
