Primordial Divine Emperor
Chapter 510 - 234: Barrier, the Banished Divine Demon Burial Ground
Ye Xiaofan was truly a bit anxious this time.
Due to the ’Hundred Sects Battle Domain’ restricting the appearance of any power beyond the Self-Slaying Realm, the most terrifying flight talisman given by Qi Yun could only reach the peak speed of the Self-Slaying Realm.
Coupled with various factors, he was currently nowhere near being able to match Yunmo Xi.
It seemed like Luo Qingxian, who had regained a trace of strength by swallowing a healing pill, sensed the change in Ye Xiaofan’s emotions, and with difficulty, she spoke.
"Don’t bother with her, just fly with all your might. Up ahead is the ’Space-Time Barrier.’ She’s already entered once and can’t go in a second time; once we’re inside, she won’t be able to harm us in the slightest."
Ye Xiaofan was startled upon hearing this, instantly accelerating his flight and shooting forward.
Long before entering the ’Valley of Space-Time,’ he had heard people mention the ’Space-Time Barrier’ repeatedly, yet he never understood what kind of place it was.
The two raced along, sprinting down the passageway the World Tree had exhausted countless Martial Soul Power to open, heading towards the end of the Heaven-Reaching Road.
Until a certain moment.
Finally.
"It’s right there."
Luo Qingxian forced herself to speak again, her beautiful eyes fixed unwaveringly on the path ahead.
And as Ye Xiaofan looked toward where the sound was coming from, his whole body suddenly trembled. His face showed shock, his expression somewhat dazed, as if witnessing an utterly soul-shaking sight.
Was that—the ’Space-Time Barrier’?
As Ye Xiaofan’s gaze fell upon that section of sky and earth, he was greatly shocked, involuntarily murmuring to himself.
At the end of the Heaven-Reaching Road, the first thing that came into view was an awe-inspiring curtain of light. It stretched across the heavens and earth, exuding waves of mysterious and immeasurable power. This light curtain didn’t instill a sense of dread as did the restrictions of the ’Hundred Sects Battle Domain,’ but rather it evoked an indescribable feeling.
Even Ye Xiaofan knew that this was—the ’Barrier’!
Yet, what truly shocked Ye Xiaofan was not the barrier itself, but the colossal figures standing on either side of the area.
Those were two earth-shattering figures. Rather than calling them figures, "corpses" would be more accurate.
Indeed, they were corpses, two towering, awe-inspiring corpses silently standing before the barrier. They reached ten thousand feet high, their aura rainbow-like. Even though they were completely devoid of life or breath, they were still soul-shaking, akin to terrifying beings guarding the barrier. Even after countless ages of death, they remained upright.
In truth, those two enormous figures were indeed guardian beings of this barrier. However, it was now unknown how many eons they had fallen, with Ye Xiaofan even able to see two massive, terrifying cavities atop their heads, as if some dreadful weapon had pierced through them, an utterly shocking sight.
Clearly, these world-shattering figures were instantaneously killed while guarding this barrier by some supreme being, such that not even a change in their expression occurred, their faces still holding the tranquility of their lifetime.
As if sensing the change in Ye Xiaofan’s expression, Luo Qingxian softly explained. Her absolutely beautiful, albeit pale, face was tinged with slight shock: "They’re divine demons!"
However, the moment those two words entered Ye Xiaofan’s ears, they ignited his heart that had grown considerably calmer.
"Divine demons?"
Ye Xiaofan instinctively muttered. Even on glimpsing the two thousand-foot corpses, he already guessed they were of extraordinary origin, but hadn’t thought of it in this way. Little did he know, these towering bodies within the heavens and earth were indeed divine demon forms.
Is there truly the existence of divine demons in this world?
Is this merely the cultivators’ term for them in the Hundred Broken Mountain Range region?
Or are they truly divine demon bodies?
Though Ye Xiaofan was profoundly shocked internally, this was decidedly not the moment for them to be astonished.
Feeling the mortal danger swiftly approaching from behind, Luo Qingxian hurriedly urged Ye Xiaofan, unable to explain much: "Junior Brother Ye, did you see the light curtain they guard? That’s the barrier gate into the ’Space-Time Barrier,’ quickly go inside."
Luo Qingxian turned to glance at Yunmo Xi, who had already closed in from behind, and as she urged Ye Xiaofan hurriedly, a terrifying object appeared in her hand that even Ye Xiaofan hadn’t sensed.
Evidently, Luo Qingxian had prepared for both outcomes; if Ye Xiaofan couldn’t enter the ’Space-Time Barrier’ before Yunmo Xi caught up, she would unleash her final card to bring the two back to the Divine Sword Sect’s temporary camp.
Upon hearing her, Ye Xiaofan naturally saw the barrier gate between the two divine demon forms, and without any hesitation, he dashed manically toward it.
He didn’t need Luo Qingxian to speak; he was already accelerating frantically, striving to leap toward that piece of sky and earth.
As the two accelerated toward the barrier gate, Yunmo Xi also saw the barrier gate at the end of the Heaven-Reaching Road. Just as the two were about to enter the light curtain, she seemed to activate some means, her speed skyrocketing once more, appearing in that area in an instant, raising her hand to strike Ye Xiaofan’s back with a fierce palm.
Boom—!!!
The massive palm print shattered the void, aiming at Ye Xiaofan and the two, its terrifying palm power causing the entire Heaven-Reaching Road to tremble.
This palm from Yunmo Xi was extraordinarily fearsome, exerting what could be her most peak strike on the Heaven-Reaching Road. If this strike landed on the two in front, instant death and obliteration would be certain.
The instant Yunmo Xi executed this palm, even without looking back, Ye Xiaofan felt his spine grow cold, his entire scalp tingling, unable to care about anything else. With Luo Qingxian, he plunged headlong into the barrier.
