"Whoosh--!!!" The sharp whistling sound was like a sharp blade, piercing the dead silence around him.
The small cyan ball carried a shriek that tore through the air, and trailed a light cyan energy trail from its end, shooting towards the direction where God Emperor Qinghao disappeared like a meteor.
Its speed was so fast that it exceeded the limits of vision. Wherever it passed, the suspended stardust around it was instantly shattered. Even the light projected from distant stars was pulled into fine strips of light, as if time had briefly stagnated and distorted at this extreme speed.
Ripples like water waves suddenly appeared in the space in front, followed by a crisp "click" sound, like ice breaking, and a dark gap appeared out of thin air.
It was a void forcibly torn apart by the power of the small blue ball.
The small ball drilled in without any hindrance, and the crack closed instantly, leaving only the faint ripples on the surface of the void.
But the ripples did not dissipate. Instead, they were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, spreading out in all directions with the point where the ball disappeared as the center.
The space barrier, which was originally as solid as cast iron, actually showed fine spider web patterns in the tremors, like glass about to break.
This small cyan ball has already penetrated the shackles of the void. You must know that this void is enough to bear the full blow of God Emperor level powerhouse, but at this moment it is completely unable to contain the energy contained in the small ball.
Although it has not reached the point of complete disintegration, the spreading spatial cracks and the continuously intensifying tremors seem to be about to collapse at any time.
On the other side, God Emperor Qinghao, who was running for his life, turned into a cyan afterimage in the starry sky.
The God Emperor aura lingering around him was chaotic, and his usually majestic face was now full of embarrassment and panic.
Even though he was running so eagerly, he still didn't dare to relax even a little bit.
Every time he breathes out, a ray of condensed spiritual thought will be released, sweeping towards the rear like a searchlight, fearing that someone is chasing him from behind.
It wasn't until the starry sky behind him completely returned to deathly silence, without even a trace of Ye Chen's breath being caught, that God Emperor Qinghao's tense body relaxed slightly.
He looked at the empty place behind him and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "It should be safe. With the speed I am breaking out at this moment, no matter how strong the opponent is, he may not be able to catch up!!!"
But as soon as this happiness came into his heart, he felt heartache.
Because the price of escaping is the war spear that has followed him for who knows how many years!
When he thought that in order to delay Ye Chen and exchange for this short escape time, he had to personally detonate the war spear that had been with him for many years, God Emperor Qinghao's heart felt like being repeatedly punctured by countless thin needles, and the pain made his breathing become stagnant.
That God Emperor war spear was made by him who spent countless efforts to go deep into the meteorite iron belt outside the territory, collect the meteorite iron tempered by the core of the stars, and merge it with 30% of his own soul power, and forged it repeatedly in the fire of the polar sun.
The spear body glowed with a cold green light, and the tip of the spear was inlaid with a green crystal that had condensed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for millions of years. It was not only powerful enough to penetrate the armor of ordinary God Emperor, but also followed him in battles for tens of thousands of years.
Over the years, the war spear was no longer a cold weapon, but existed like brothers and sisters with him.
At this moment, we can only let it disintegrate in the explosion, and not even a single wreckage can be retained.
"No matter how precious weapons are, they are not as important as life!!!"
God Emperor Qinghao gritted his teeth and suppressed the reluctance in his eyes, his knuckles turning white from the exertion.
He raised his head and looked into the distance, his eyes penetrating through tens of thousands of miles of starry sky and landing on the light blue film of light.
That is the world barrier of this world, wrapping the entire world like an eggshell, isolating the danger and chaos outside the territory.
As long as you pass through that barrier, you can enter the vast outer sea of stars and take refuge in other worlds that have not been touched by Ye Chen. Although it takes a long time to sail in the sea of stars, for God Emperor-level powerhouses with endless lifespans, this time is just a blink of an eye.
Thinking of this, a glimmer of hope rekindled in God Emperor Qinghao's eyes, and the cyan Divine Power surged around him again, wrapping his body like a burning flame. His speed suddenly increased, turning into a stream of cyan light, and speeding towards the world barrier.
But while flying, the towering figure of Ye Chen, like a mountain, appeared in his mind again--
At that time, Ye Chen just raised his hand casually and defused his full blow. His light-weight attitude was like an insurmountable chasm. He couldn't help but shudder. He subconsciously lowered his voice and cursed, "Damn, who is that kid? Why is he so strong at such a young age?"
In his long life, he has provoked countless powerful people.
There is an overlord who controls a territory, and there is the veteran God Emperor who has lived in seclusion for many years.
There were many opponents who could equal him, and several times he was even forced to be seriously injured and on the verge of death, but those people had never made him feel so deeply powerless.
When facing Ye Chen, he was like facing an endless ocean. No matter how hard he struggled or fought back, he could not escape the fate of being swallowed by the huge waves, without even a trace of room for resistance.
"If I hadn't made a decisive decision, detonated the war spear to create chaos, turned around and ran away, I would have turned into a puddle of flesh in the starry sky, and I wouldn't even be able to save my soul."
God Emperor Qinghao clenched his fists with lingering fear.
His eyes were sinister, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You are the first and only person who can force me to leave this world!"
He has been rampant in this world for tens of thousands of years. With his strong strength and cunning mind, even though he is hated by countless forces, he has always been able to live freely. No one has ever truly threatened his life.
But this time, it was only the first time they fought, and he had to flee in embarrassment.
Because he knows very well that Ye Chen is far more powerful than him. If he continues to stay here, what awaits him will only be death without any suspense.
Finally, the light blue barrier of the world was right in front of us.
It is like a huge sapphire, with a soft but tough light flowing on its surface, which can block the invasion of all malicious energy from outside the territory.
God Emperor Qinghao took a deep breath and mobilized all the remaining Divine Power in his body. The cyan light around his body surged and hit the barrier hard.
With a soft sound of "Buzz--", the barrier rippled in circles like water waves, and then opened a hole just enough to accommodate his figure, completely swallowing his figure.
The moment he passed through the barrier, God Emperor Qinghao's tense nerves completely relaxed.
He was suspended in the starry sky outside the territory, feeling the empty breath behind him. Just as he was about to evoke a smile for the rest of his life, his expression suddenly changed dramatically.
An indescribable sense of crisis was like a cold poisonous snake, instantly entangled in his soul. The power hidden in the void was like a dormant beast, approaching at a terrifying speed, making his soul tremble slightly, and even Divine Power around his body was in chaos.
"What the hell? What the hell is catching up?!"
God Emperor Qinghao Turned around suddenly, his spiritual thoughts spread like a tide towards the starry sky behind him, covering a radius of thousands of miles.
But there was nothing in the starry sky except floating meteorites, broken starship wreckage, and the faint light from distant stars.
But the feeling of being locked was extremely real. Cold sweat instantly soaked the lining of his armor, his back became cold, and even his breathing became rapid.
At this moment, there was a sudden "click" in the void in front of him, as if a thick layer of ice was forcibly torn apart, and a huge crack hundreds of feet wide appeared out of thin air.
Deep in the dark cracks, one can vaguely see the distorted turbulence of time and space, and a cyan ball the size of a fist, carrying a destructive aura, rushed out like a cannonball!
God Emperor Qinghao's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a pinhead, and his face was filled with disbelief.
The energy fluctuations flowing on the surface of the small ball were clearly caused by the disintegration of the God Emperor war spear he detonated!
But at this moment, he didn't feel the joy of regaining anything, only the horror that penetrated into his bones. A chill shot up from the soles of his feet to the sky, making his body begin to tremble uncontrollably.
He knows better than anyone else that the disintegration of the war spear is an irreversible process. The destructive energy should have exploded on the spot, forming a turbulent flow of energy to block Ye Chen's pursuit.
But now, not only has this energy not dissipated, but it seems to be controlled by some kind of force, changing its direction and heading towards him!
"No... this power... is stronger than the war spear in its heyday!!!"
God Emperor Qinghao I just felt my scalp was numb and my teeth started to chatter.
If it were a God Emperor weapon that disintegrated normally, relying on his God Emperor-level body and Divine Power defense, even if he tried hard, he would be seriously injured at most and would not be life-threatening.
But the power that the small green ball in front of me exploded has already exceeded the normal range.
The cyan energy is like boiling magma, constantly overflowing from the sphere. Wherever it passes, the void is burned with black traces, and even the surrounding starlight is swallowed up by this energy, forming a short-term dark area.
Before he could mobilize Divine Power into a defensive posture, cyan energy surged in like a flood that burst a dam, completely engulfing his figure in an instant.
God Emperor Qinghao didn't even have time to let out a scream. His golden battle armor, which could withstand God Emperor's full blow, instantly shattered like paper in the cyan energy. His body and soul were completely crushed into powder by this destructive force. Not even a trace of his soul was left behind, and he completely disappeared into the vast starry sky.
God Emperor Qinghao, who once made countless forces helpless and hated thousands of creatures, but could always get away with it, finally ended up dead without a burial place.
"Boom--!!!"
The next second, the cyan energy suddenly exploded in the outer starry sky.
The dazzling blue light was like a second sun rising out of thin air, illuminating most of the starry sky in an instant.
Inside the world, the originally peaceful earth suddenly trembled violently.
The majestic mountain peaks collapsed amidst the roar, and huge rocks rolled down the steep slopes, destroying the villages at the foot of the mountains and raising dust that covered the sky and blocked the sun.
The rushing river suddenly changed its direction and poured backwards upstream.
In the coastal areas, tsunamis tens of meters high were like the claws of a giant beast, roaring onto the land, tearing coastal towns into pieces. Countless houses were overturned and smashed like toys in the waves. Countless creatures were frightened and panicked by this sudden change.
Even some of the weaker monks found it difficult to stand firm amid the tremors of the earth, with fear written all over their faces.
They looked up at the sky and saw that the blue light was like a huge dome, covering the entire sky. Even the sun at noon was blocked by this light, leaving only a dazzling blue between the sky and the earth.
"What happened? Outside the territory... Was there a war outside the territory?!"
A gray-haired old man hugged his grandson tightly, his voice trembling with fear.
"Oh my God, what level of war can cause so many disasters? Even the mountains have collapsed and the rivers have flowed backwards!"
A monk was suspended in mid-air, looking at the messy scene below, his eyes full of horror.
"This world... this world won't be destroyed, right?!"
Someone yelled in collapse, with despair in their voice.
Panic spreads rapidly in the world like a plague.
All living beings know that those superpowers who stand at the top of the pyramid of the cultivation world can destroy a world with a single blow. If they start a fierce battle outside the territory, the aftermath of the battle is likely to spread to the entire world.
Is there really a world-destroying powerhouse fighting outside the territory to destroy the world?
Countless people knelt on the ground, clasped their hands, praying that the disaster would pass as soon as possible.
Some people packed their bags and wanted to escape this chaotic land, but found that no matter where they fled, they could feel the tremors of the earth and see the dazzling blue light in the sky.
Fortunately, this chaos did not last too long. Half an hour later, the blue light in the sky gradually dissipated like a tide, the tremors of the earth slowly stopped, the backward river returned to its original course, the receding tsunami left a messy coastline, and the world finally returned to peace.
In the outer starry sky, the cyan energy had long since disappeared, leaving only a huge crack in the void floating quietly in the starry sky.
Soon, several powerful auras rushed out from the inside of the world, falling like meteors in the outer starry sky - those were the God Emperor level powerhouses existing in this world.
They were all practicing in seclusion in their respective caves, but they were awakened by the terrifying energy fluctuation just now. Now they gathered here and looked at each other, their eyes full of shock and solemnity.
In front of them, the void crack was like a bottomless maw of a ferocious beast. Its width was actually larger than the entire world. Inside the dark crack, violent turbulence of time and space was constantly surging, exuding a heart-stopping aura.
At the edge of the crack, the space barrier is still crumbling, turning into little bits of light and dissipating in the starry sky.
The terrifying power of the void is continuously released from the inside of the crack, like an invisible big hand, tightly pulling the world behind it, as if it wants to drag the entire world into this crack and be completely destroyed.
"This... how powerful is this force to explode such a large crack in the void?"
A God Emperor, wearing a black robe and with a withered face, stretched out his trembling fingers and pointed at the crack, with an unconcealable horror in his voice.
He has lived for tens of thousands of years and has seen countless God Emperor level battles, but he has never seen such terrifying destructive power.
This has exceeded the limit of ordinary God Emperor, and even faintly touched a higher level of power.
Others also nodded, their eyes full of solemnity.
They could clearly feel that the power of the void surging in the crack was extremely violent. If not stopped, it would not take long before the entire world would be pulled into the crack by this force and completely annihilated in the turbulence of time and space.
