"This orb of light seems to be a passage to another world, but something about it is different..."
Though they were far apart, with a barrier of chaotic thoughts between them, Chen Cuo's perception could still catch a trace of something they shared!
It was a feeling too mysterious to explain, impossible to put into words, yet undeniably real.
Without even trying to calculate it, Chen Cuo had already guessed that this person's origins resembled his own. Here was a true kindred spirit!
"If that's so, I can't let him die before my eyes!"
One look was enough for Chen Cuo to see that, despite the faintly wondrous aura around his kindred spirit, he still had a mortal body. If that mass of Essence Light struck him, he would die in an instant!
Realizing this, Chen Cuo hesitated no longer. At a thought, the Bronze Man behind him reacted, reaching out a great golden-yellow hand to seize the Essence Light!
Yet deep in his heart, a thought faintly stirred: saving that person might not be easy.
Sure enough, the Bronze Man's hand had barely reached halfway when strands of Dao Intent coiled around it!
Crack!
Rifts immediately spread across the arm, and rays of Spirit Light shone through them!
The Bronze Man did not stop. Ignoring the Rifts multiplying along its arm, it kept reaching forward. Its hand crossed the obstruction and was just about to seize the Essence Light...
Thud!
With a muffled collision, the Bronze Man's hand was stopped by something invisible!
"Interesting!"
Chen Cuo sensed a thought arise in his heart for no reason at all—
"This place is uncanny, its tangled thoughts run deep, and its realm is hard to judge. It may even be above the Five Steps. How could it be shattered so easily?"
