Chapter 356: A Space Passage from Ten Thousand Years Ago!
As they continued forward, the two of them did not speak. Although Fang Xue’s divine soul was not as sharp as Gu Fan’s, in that brief moment she too sensed that the halos within the passage had noticed them.
And it was just that single glance—Fang Xue did not know why, but she felt a sense of both familiarity and disgust.
Gu Fan, though without clear evidence, possessed a soul far stronger than Fang Xue’s. What she could sense, he naturally would not fail to detect.
That familiar sensation, that familiar fluctuation—at this moment, Gu Fan recalled the Void Sacred Realm!
Indeed, though without exact proof, Gu Fan immediately thought of the mission spoken of by the three top sects after the Eastern Region Grand Assembly.
At that time, while at the Xian’ai Sect, he had originally had the chance to learn about the Xuan Yu Immortal Sect’s mission, but unfortunately his identity had been exposed by the Soul Studies Sect.
Now thinking back, at that time the Xuan Yu Immortal Sect had paid such a heavy price. The mission surely could not have been simple.
Could it be this group of people?
If so, the timing did not quite match. Back then, it was said that the disciples of the Xuan Yu Immortal Sect would train for three years before carrying it out, yet now only a single year had passed…
Or perhaps because of him, the mission had been pushed forward?
If it really was that group of people, then the number did not match either…
Was it possible that because of him, the Xian’ai Sect had been excluded from the mission?
This was entirely possible.
Moreover, this group of disciples from the Holy Domain of the Void Sacred Realm—what kind of mission would actually require them to pass through a spatial passage? And what was their destination?
At this thought, Gu Fan already had a rough guess in his heart!
Combining his own experiences, he speculated that their target was most likely the Destiny Continent!
And at the other end of the passage should be the Destiny Continent!
Gu Fan’s scalp tingled. Once this conjecture appeared, many of his previous doubts suddenly became clearer!
At this moment, Fang Xue also sensed Gu Fan’s unusual state.
“Have you discovered something?”
Gu Fan shook his head with a sigh, then turned back to glance at the distant spatial passage behind them:
“Right now it cannot yet be confirmed. We’ll speak of it once we return safely.”
In truth, if they let the Void Fish follow the direction of the spatial passage, there was a high chance of finding the spatial rift leading to the Destiny Continent.
But that would also greatly increase the chance of encountering that group of people.
At this time, Gu Fan had no intention of exposing his identity. Remaining hidden was more advantageous to him!
“Let’s hope the Void Fish can find the rift smoothly, and not delay too long…”
Fang Xue nodded lightly at these words. Being carried in Gu Fan’s arms like this did feel rather awkward…
The two of them spoke no more, silently following behind the Void Fish.
On the other side, within the unknown spatial passage—
Twelve halos continued forward in a certain direction. They could neither stop on their own nor speed up, as if bound by predetermined rules.
“What’s wrong? Just now, it seemed you discovered something?” a voice came from within one of the halos.
“Nothing much. I just don’t know why, but it felt like someone was spying on us.” Another halo replied.
These words immediately drew the attention of all the others within the halos.
“Someone spying on us? Impossible. This spatial passage has been deserted for countless years. How could anyone possibly live within it?”
“Not within the passage—more like from outside of it.”
At this moment, a woman’s voice rang out.
“No way! Don’t scare me like that! Outside the passage is endless void! A being that could survive in the void itself and still spy on us… No, I’m getting chills just thinking about it!”
Once she finished speaking, the scene fell silent. Clearly, everyone was shaken by those words.
The thought that some creature within the endless void might be watching them was hardly a pleasant one.
It even gave them the chilling sensation of being stalked.
“Haha, perhaps it was only my imagination. You all know I mainly cultivate the divine soul—sometimes being overly sensitive is normal.”
At this, the leading halo pondered a moment before speaking:
“Perhaps your sharp soul truly detected some existence. But our main task lies at the other end of this passage. Best not to provoke unnecessary troubles.”
“Haha, of course I know. A being able to survive in the endless void… even with ten lives, I wouldn’t dare provoke such a thing.”
This was indeed the truth. In the endless void, ordinary cultivators would quickly be torn apart by the countless spatial turbulence streams.
Any single turbulence could easily shatter both the flesh and soul of a cultivator. Unless one possessed an extremely resilient body, survival was utterly impossible.
Secondly, within the endless void, entering was one matter, but as time passed, one completely lost sense of direction. There was no up, down, left, or right.
Without coordinates as guidance, once lost in the void, one would be trapped until death.
Unless, by sheer luck, one encountered the sudden appearance of a spatial rift—just like Gu Fan’s situation—otherwise, only death awaited.
“All right, everyone. Don’t forget the responsibility we shoulder. Since we’ve chosen to participate in this mission, we must be prepared. Behind us… lies the hope of countless people!”
Upon hearing this, everyone trembled slightly.
“Of course!”
“No need to say more—we all understand.”
Thus, the halos calmed down once again.
No one knew how long had passed before someone exclaimed:
“We’re almost there! There are fluctuations ahead!”
At the end of the spatial passage appeared a gate of light. As the holy radiance from the gate shone upon them, the halos surrounding them dissolved.
Immediately afterward, they entered the gate one after another, vanishing from the passage.
At the same time, within the Brahma God Sect—
The secret realm within the Hall of Merit trembled once more, startling several elders, especially as yet another portion of the Demonic Fire Secret Realm collapsed. This directly frightened them greatly.
Now that only half of the spatial passage had been restored, if the entire secret realm truly collapsed, all beings within would be crushed into nothingness.
At that time, let alone the Holy Son—even if the Supreme Elder were inside, survival would be questionable.
Fortunately, this time the tremor only lasted a few breaths before subsiding, returning to stillness.
“Phew… scared me half to death. This is utterly reckless! The spatial passage is gone, so how can the Holy Son still cause such chaos within?”
The Purple-robed Elder shook his head:
“Previously, the frequent tremors stopped for a long while. Likely, they realized they could not continue shaking the space.”
“This time, for it to shake again after so long, they must have been forced into it, perhaps encountering some danger.”
The four elders exchanged glances.
“Fire Demons? In the Demonic Fire Secret Realm, the only true threat would be those Fire Demons.”
“Fire Demons are undying and nearly invincible within the secret realm… It seems even the Holy Son has run into danger!”
Hearing this, the Purple-robed Elder could no longer sit still. He rose abruptly and said:
“I cannot wait any longer. I must urge the Supreme Elder to repair the passage as quickly as possible—otherwise, the Holy Son and the others will be in grave danger!”
With that, he left the hall at once!
