Breaking Through the Void
The purpose of the Heavenly Blood Alliance's Black Stone Trial was to awaken the Yin Sha that slumbered there. After reading the Masked Man's memories, Yi Yun knew very well that there were hundreds of Yin Sha in the Soul Tomb, some of which had been dormant for tens of millions of years.
These ancient Yin spirits, which have been dormant for tens of millions of years, are sealed within the bloodstone and have never awakened. They absorb the Sha Qi and extreme Yin power of heaven and earth within the Soul Tomb, possessing terrifying strength. Compared to these ancient Yin spirits, the Masked Man is much weaker.
The Masked Man is a steward who is often sent out to complete tasks by the Yin Sha, while the real old demons and ancestors of the Yin Sha are always in a deep slumber.
If these Yin Sha (negative forces) were to awaken collectively, the Blood Moon's power would increase dramatically.
Yi Yun certainly wouldn't stand idly by and watch such a thing happen.
"Yi Yun, the alternate dimension created by Zhulong doesn't seem to be as powerful as we originally thought. The Space Barrier here is slowly weakening."
Lin Xin Tong's telepathic message rang in Yi Yun's ears. After finding Jiang Xiaorou, she began searching for a way to break through the alternate dimension.
Lin Xin Tong gradually sensed that the spatial power of the alternate dimension was slowly dissipating. If this trend continued, the space might collapse after a period of time.
"It has weakened." Yi Yun also noticed this. He was very calm at this moment, sensing the surrounding radiation and experiencing every minute change in the spatial power in the alternate dimension.
"Perhaps, Zhulong never intended to bury us all in this alternate dimension, nor did he have the strength to capture both of us at once. He was merely using this method to trap us while transferring the members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance away. Once the members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance are Body Snatching Yin Sha, his mission will be complete. Moreover, if Zhulong leads those ancient Yin Sha to attack, and even awakens some of the Corpse King sleeping in the Soul Tomb, he will kill us all here."
Within this Soul Tomb, many ghosts, Corpse King, blood moons, and members of the Desolate Clan choose to enter at this time because the Yin energy of heaven and earth weakens at this time, causing these terrifying beings to fall into slumber.
Yi Yun knew that some ancient Yin Sha possessed the ability to control ghosts and even establish spiritual connections with Corpse King.
If some of the Corpse King were awakened, it would become impossible for him and Lin Xin Tong to leave the Soul Tomb with so many members of the Desolate Clan.
Yi Yun said, "We can't wait any longer. I suspect this isn't a real alternate dimension at all, but just a spatial maze. I'll try to see if I can break through this Space Barrier."
The weakening of spatial power led Yi Yun to suspect that the alternate dimension created by Zhulong was actually a pseudo-space, and that Zhulong did not have enough power to truly teleport Yi Yun, Lin Xin Tong, Jiang Xiaorou, and the others to a distant parallel space.
A true parallel universe might have existed for billions of years. How could the power of space weaken in such a short time?
Therefore, Yi Yun guessed that Zhulong used his Space Law to construct a spatial maze, sealing everyone inside.
As time goes by, this spatial labyrinth, which has no subsequent energy to sustain it, will eventually dissipate.
"Break through this spatial labyrinth? Can you do it?" Lin Xin Tong felt it was somewhat difficult. Even though this wasn't a true alternate dimension, it was still something that Zhulong had created by burning his life essence and forcibly using a secret technique.
Yi Yun's strength should be greater than Zhulong's in its normal state, but he might not be able to defeat Zhulong when he uses his secret technique.
Furthermore, Yi Yun doesn't understand the Space Law, so he would have to use brute force to break through this spatial maze.
Trying to suppress a law with brute force, especially one that Zhulong had comprehended through several lifetimes of cultivation, is far too difficult!
Lin Xin Tong believes that in the Tianyuan Realm, the vast majority of Emperor do not have this strength; at the very least, they would have to wait for the spatial maze to weaken its energy for a few more days.
"Give it a try. If you have enough strength, you might be able to do it. Xin Tong, go and gather all the members of the Desolate Clan around you. Don't forget anyone. When you break through space, the impact will be huge. After space shatters, it will also create Space Storm. Those who are not strong enough will have their bodies torn apart."
Yi Yun took a deep breath, circulated his inner energy, and entered a state of tranquility.
"Okay." Lin Xin Tong didn't question what Yi Yun said. She immediately began to gather the scattered members of the Wild Clan in the spatial maze.
This is no simple task. The spatial maze distorts the perception path, and Lin Xin Tong has to consume a considerable amount of mental energy to search each area.
Fortunately, many members of the Wilderness Clan had gathered together, so once one was found, the others were not far away, and they quickly found a group.
Gradually, more and more members of the Wilderness Clan gathered around Lin Xin Tong, and after a quick headcount, they were all present.
"Join forces for defense?"
After Chen Fei was seriously injured, the leader of the Wilderness Clan was a young girl in her early twenties dressed in blue. Her name was Yue Lu. The Wilderness Clan worshipped the strong, and Yue Lu had great respect for the powerful Lin Xin Tong. "Why are we being asked to defend?"
"Yi Yun wants to break through the Space Barrier here, and I'm afraid he might hurt you."
Lin Xin Tong didn't explain further. Upon hearing this, Yue Lu was suddenly stunned. Break through the Space Barrier?
How could Space Barrier be so sturdy? Did Yi Yun really intend to break it with absolute power?
However, now is not the time to question Yi Yun. Yue Lu asked, "Do you need our help?"
"You probably can't help, just take care of yourselves." Lin Xin Tong shook her head. Yue Lu was speechless, and she said helplessly, "Okay..."
The members of the Wild Clan quickly erected energy shields, wondering if this method would actually work. Perhaps their efforts to maintain the shields would ultimately fail, resulting in the breaching of the Space Barrier?
Lin Xin Tong infused her power into the energy shield erected by the members of the Wilderness Clan, and in an instant, the shield rapidly strengthened.
"It's ready!"
Lin Xin Tong to Yi Yun.
At this moment, Yi Yun was sitting cross-legged in the very center of this spatial maze. Upon hearing Lin Xin Tong message, he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze flashing like purple lightning in the dark space.
With a gentle press of his hand, the broken sword that had been resting on his knees vanished from his grasp and returned to his Space Ring.
As the Empress Heart Sutra was activated, all of Yi Yun's vital energy converged into his dantian and was then compressed.
The energy gathered more and more, all of it being absorbed into the Purple Crystal. The Purple Crystal trembled violently, and behind Yi Yun, the phantoms of the Golden Crow and the Nine-Headed Serpent appeared simultaneously.
Both major Dharma Aspect Totem are unleashed together!
When this power reached its peak, a golden light shot up from Yi Yun's head!
The two great Dharma Aspect Totem soared and spiraled upwards around the crystalline light.
The golden crow shrieked, and the nine-headed infant roared; the dazzling golden light seemed to open a golden road in the endless darkness.
The power of space began to rotate, and a golden spatial gate appeared out of thin air, growing larger and larger.
"Boom!"
With a deafening roar, a divine tower descended from the sky through the golden spatial gate!
