Boom!
The laser collided with the metal piece and exploded. A violent shockwave spread through the night sky and radiated outwards. Many trees and mountains below collapsed inch by inch and turned into ashes.
The stalwart man and the others did not dare to charge into the shockwaves of the explosion, fearing that the magnetic field of the warship would be disturbed. They could only stop and watch from a distance. As the shockwaves of the explosion slowly dissipated, a black streak of light suddenly broke through the fog and rushed into the distance.
The stalwart man and the others had amazing eyesight. With a glance, they saw that the black streak of light was the black metal piece. Their faces were filled with shock. They did not expect that such a powerful attack would not be able to destroy it. Even the stalwart man thought that if he were to be hit by such a powerful shockwave, he would be severely injured or even killed.
However, this small metal piece that looked ordinary was as tough as a human's life. It resisted the shockwave and flew into the distance without much damage.
"What should we do?" The handsome man could not help but ask.
The stalwart man gritted his teeth. "Chase!"
The three Pseudo God rank interstellar warships buzzed slightly, and their ejectors glowed brightly. With a swoosh, they chased after the black metal piece.
Boom boom boom …
Laser beams shot out from the interstellar warships and bombarded the black metal piece. However, there was no reaction at all. It was like a mayfly trying to shake a tree. There was not the slightest ripple.
Under the bombardment of the laser beams, the black metal piece withstood it easily. It continued forward as if it was flying into an unknown place.
Not long after, they arrived at a natural moat. Looking from afar, they could see a desolate mountain range. There was no tree or sand, and it was all gray.
"Not good!"
In the control room of the interstellar warship, the stalwart man's face changed when he saw the area in front of him. "This is the Godfall Domain!"
The faces of the handsome man and the others changed as they looked at the area in front of them. They also recognized it, and their faces turned ugly.
"The Godfall Domain is one of the three most dangerous places in the White Lotus Divine Prefecture. Ordinary Pseudo God realm experts will die if they enter it. Even Divine Spirit realm experts do not dare to enter it recklessly.
"This area looks ordinary, but the pressure and density of the air here is completely different from the outside world."
"If a Semi-Divinity realm cultivator were to enter, they would lose their ability to fly and would have no choice but to walk on foot. If a Semi-Divinity realm cultivator were to enter, their bones would be crushed to bits by the immense pressure!"
"There will be some terrifying demon spirits lying in ambush here …"
Everyone recalled the legends about the Godfall Realm, and couldn't help but feel shocked. They didn't dare to go any further. In fact, they were all a bit tired after chasing after him for so long.
That black metal piece was too abnormal.
No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't break it apart. Even if he chased after it, it would be useless. The other party's defense was simply too terrifying. Perhaps, only a god-tier expert would be able to break it!
"What should we do?" the handsome man asked.
The stalwart man stared at the black iron piece that was slowly flying towards the Fallen God Domain. He frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "Let's go back first. Pass down the order to Yan Jia to release the teleportation gate. As long as he stays in the White Lotus Divine Land, he won't be able to escape!"
"As long as we guard the teleportation gates of the Nine Great Cities, we won't have to worry about him escaping!"
"Also, send someone to the Surveillance Department in the city and ask them to take note of the iris imprint that he left behind in the Scarlet Fall Gate. The moment he enters the city, he will be detected!"
"He won't be allowed to leave or enter the city!"
"If he stays in the wilderness for too long, he will be infected by the harmful gas that permeates the wilderness. At that time, he will become a soulless!"
The stalwart man's eyes glinted coldly. "If I ever meet that bastard again, I'll definitely crush his body!"
Thinking about how his valuable Semi-Divinity realm interstellar warship had been taken away by Ye Chen, he couldn't help but feel a little pained.
At this moment, the pitch-black iron plate had already entered the Realm of the Fallen God. The moment it entered, it suddenly sank slightly. Then, the entire pitch-black iron plate emanated intense black light as it floated up and flew forward in a leisurely manner.
Seeing this, the stalwart man and the others couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Let's go!"
"Let's not waste any more time."
Sou sou sou!
The three interstellar warships turned around and flew into the distant sky, disappearing without a trace.
After the interstellar battleship disappeared, the black piece of iron continued to fly forward slowly. Suddenly, the air around it tightened, and a nearly transparent demonic beast condensed from the side. It bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it tried to bite the black piece of iron.
Bang!
The sharp teeth of the Demonic Beast savagely bit down on the black metal piece. Time seemed to freeze for a few seconds as its teeth broke inch by inch.
The black metal piece didn't stop. It leisurely flew past the nearly transparent Demonic Beast. The Demonic Beast held its teeth and wanted to cry, but no tears came out.
It didn't take long for the jet-black iron piece to fly out of the Fallen God Domain, which was a place where people feared just by hearing its name. It arrived at a star fragment not far away, and slowly landed on a lonely peak. A light flashed, and the jet-black fog that shrouded Ye Chen dissipated. It seemed to have lost its power, and fell into Ye Chen's arms.
The mountain wind blew gently against Ye Chen's body. The blood on the Divine Flame Suit had already dried up and condensed into bloody scars.
Stars dotted the night sky. The blood moon hung high in the sky. In the deep forest not far away, there were a few faint roars of Demonic Beasts, as well as the sounds of bones being chewed and torn.
The night sky was even more ferocious.
Ye Chen slept on top of the lonely mountain peak, unconscious. The cold wind blew gently, fluttering his clothes. It seemed to be somewhat cold.
Time flew. Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, a Demonic Beast slowly walked over from the foot of the mountain. It had a body like a leopard, sharp claws, and black stripes all over its body. It lowered its head and sniffed around. Then, it strode towards the mountain peak. Not long after, it arrived at the top of the mountain. Its nose twitched and it saw a bloody figure lying not far away.
Its black eyes seemed to brighten up a bit.
The night sky became a bit darker.
The leopard Demonic Beast slowly walked over tentatively. As it got closer, the tempting smell of blood became more intense. It couldn't help but be a bit intoxicated. Its metallic eyes were filled with greed. It carefully walked to the front of Ye Chen.
It slowly lifted its claws and patted Ye Chen's thigh.
Time seemed to be holding its breath.
Ye Chen's body was motionless. He didn't notice that the Demonic Beast's eyes immediately glowed brightly. It licked its lips and suddenly opened its bloody mouth to bite Ye Chen.
The cold wind was biting cold.
Under that bloody mouth, a strand of scorching golden light slowly lit up bit by bit. Like a monstrous and furious flame, it surrounded the Demonic Beast and swallowed it.
"Woo …" A weak scream was heard. Then, the golden light rolled back and returned to the Divine Flame Suit on Ye Chen's body. The Demonic Beast's body, however, turned into ashes.
The breeze was icy cold.
The world was completely silent, as if nothing had happened.
… …
In the faint and endless darkness, a youth was sitting cross-legged. Suddenly, he seemed to sense some movement. Then, he slowly stood up.
He looked ahead.
Over there, a misty white light slowly emerged. It seemed to open a door to this dark world.
So, he walked over.
A dreamy voice slowly sounded from the misty white light. It was low and indistinct. It couldn't be heard clearly.
So, he quickened his pace.
"Five years …"
"The five-year agreement …"
The faint voice became clearer and louder until he arrived in front of the white light. His entire body was surrounded by the dazzling white light.
Ye Chen opened his eyes.
The stars and the blood moon.
Reflected in his line of sight.
Ye Chen's vision slowly became clear. His entire person woke up. Feeling the cold wind blowing on his body, he couldn't help but be stunned. "I didn't die?"
He moved slightly. Suddenly, a tearing pain spread all over his body. This pain was like being cut into pieces. Even the nerves in his body were twitching. Even with his willpower, he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. He clenched his teeth and endured silently.
After a while, the pain slowly disappeared. Ye Chen heaved a sigh of relief and did not dare to move. He just silently looked at the sky. The flickering starlight and the eerie crimson blood moon would always be the background of the Ancient World. There would never be any changes.
Ye Chen's heart suddenly moved. He hurriedly and carefully felt the divine power in his body. He found that the divine power in his body was empty. There wasn't the slightest fluctuation of Demigod power. He couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"I wonder how long it will take before I can move my body?"
Ye Chen lamented in his heart. "With the body's self-healing ability, I'm afraid it will take a few months or even a year to recover from such serious injuries!"
"In other words, I will have to suffer the cold wind here for a few months!"
"I wonder how long I have been unconscious for those people to fail to kill me?
That's strange. I have no idea how long I have been unconscious. After we parted, I stayed in the Scarlet Fall Gate for two months. Putting aside the time that I have been unconscious, if I were to stay here for four to five months, even if I only have four years left! "
"My constitution is only at level 100,000!"
"To reach level 1,000,000 and become a Semi-Divinity realm expert within four years?
That's impossible. Given my current strength, I can only be suppressed by Semi-Divinity realm experts. Even if I rely on my god blood, it won't work. "
With such thoughts in mind, Ye Chen felt an inexplicable sense of irritation. He had never felt the importance of time so deeply before. Most people wouldn't even dare to claim that they could reach Semi-Divinity realm within four hundred years!
Most people would spend tens of thousands of years before reaching the end of their lifespan, only to reach Half-Divinity realm!
Even though Ye Chen did not know too much about Bai Yijun's background and identity, he was still able to deduce that she came from a powerful family. She had countless suitors, and there was no doubt that there were some Semi-Divinity realm experts among them!
"I have to reach Semi-Divinity realm in order to find her within four years!"
Ye Chen clenched his teeth. His heart was unprecedentedly firm. He slowly clenched his fingers. Waves of tearing pain spread throughout his body. He bit his lower lip and didn't make a sound. Like a rock that wasn't afraid of wind and rain, he slowly moved his arm.
