Boom!
At the center of the broken mountain ridge, space suddenly warped, and the Space Rift rapidly expanded.
Under the effects of Li Qing's mana, this mystic realm, sealed away for many years, finally opened a passage for Li Qing.
"Now! Chong Jiu, get in!"
Li Qing immediately sent a divine thought to Chong Jiu below. Its enormous body sprang violently up from the ground.
"Let's go! Charge, Little Jiu!" Lin Jing, seated firmly atop Chong Jiu, shouted excitedly, her face practically bursting with exhilaration.
Boom!
Accompanied by a gale sweeping past, Chong Jiu's body forcibly squeezed through the Space Rift.
Li Qing followed close behind. While maintaining the output of his mana, he flew into the Space Rift at tremendous speed.
There was no other reason for bringing Chong Jiu into the mystic realm. Li Qing simply valued its Core Formation combat power.
Li Qing's mana was already running rather low. He had no idea what dangers he might encounter within the mystic realm, so Chong Jiu's combat strength was crucial.
Besides, leaving the mystic realm later would also require mana to open a passage. Once inside, he had to conserve mana wherever possible!
Accompanied by a dizzying whirl, the scenery of the surrounding space changed rapidly.
Smack!
Very soon, Li Qing fell from high in the air. Before he could use his mana to keep himself aloft, Chong Jiu extended a tentacle from below and steadily caught him.
"Master, are you alright?" Lin Jing hurried over and asked with concern, the excitement on her face only just fading.
"Your master is unharmed. There is no need to worry." As Li Qing spoke, he surveyed the surroundings with his naked eye.
The light here was incomparably dim. The ground was covered in clumps of dry grass and dead trees.
