Li Qingyun piloted the star-skiff. Behind the Second Sequence Ring Chain, he encountered a vast number of trial-by-combat squads and lone travelers, and the area was still tightly sealed off.
Moreover, in this patch of Netherworld Void, a Supreme Being's coercive pressure loomed faintly. Clearly, an Eternal Life Realm expert was hiding behind the scenes, presiding over the coming-of-age trials for the Eternal Clan's youth in this region.
Li Qingyun even doubted whether any saints from other cosmic regions, besides himself, could actually make it past the blockade and smuggle their way across.
Of course, while such a possibility was extremely slim, he could not call it an absolute impossibility.
Just like himself—having captured an old good-for-nothing of the Eternal Clan like Shang Zhen, he had instantly struck it rich.
Bracing himself and enduring a few more rounds of interrogation, he kept a low profile under the gaze of numerous Eternal Clan youths, successfully crossed the blockade line, and reached the Third Sequence Ring Chain.
The moment he crossed the line, Li Qingyun faintly sensed that unseen Eternal Supreme Being cast a cold, casual glance at his back.
That kind of pressure surged over him like mountains and seas.
Fortunately, he had weathered major storms after all. Forcing himself to remain calm while maintaining the slight subservience expected of a mixed-blood commoner, he finally broke free from the domain covered by that supreme gaze.
Finally made it past another critical hurdle!
Li Qingyun let out a soft breath, feeling rather fortunate in his heart.
It was a good thing he chose to lay low in the Yongkang Great Universe for three years; otherwise, had he simply charged in headfirst back then, his body and soul would surely have been annihilated.
*This Third Sequence Ring Chain feels a lot quieter! The
