Chapter 653: Chapter 653: Cultivating the Spatial Codex, the Intentions of the Major Powers
This was the sign that Ye Feng was about to master the first volume of the “Spatial Codex,” indicating that he was about to enter a mysterious space to experience its vastness and infinity.
Ye Feng found that he was continuously falling.
Falling into an endless, illusory space, the objects around him were rapidly retreating, already indistinct, like countless beams of light.
This gave Ye Feng the sensation of traveling through a time-space tunnel.
“Where exactly am I going?”
Ye Feng clenched his teeth, feeling as though he had entered an endless vortex from which he could never escape.
...“Tenfold Speed!”
He formed seals with his hands and accelerated the flow of time.
Whoosh!
Indeed, the speed at which Ye Feng was falling increased tenfold, but he still felt as if he had been falling for thousands, or even tens of thousands of years, before he finally arrived at a boundless white space.
It was very white all around.
Just like pure, flawless milk.
Or like soft white clouds.
Here, he couldn’t feel the existence of space, for he could pass his hand through his own body, clutch his fiercely beating heart, which seemed like an illusion yet was incredibly real.
“Where is this?”
Ye Feng couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
“Ding! This is the area behind the Door of Space, where all the rules of space originally exist and where space is defined.”
That’s how the System explained it.
Ye Feng furrowed his brow slightly, indicating that he probably understood but quickly forgot it completely.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the white space trembled and a sparkling starry sky appeared in front of him.
Embedded within it were countless life stars.
The beings on them were innumerable.
Ye Feng, standing upon the galaxy, seemed to be able to govern everything in this world, and a loud voice emerged in his mind:
“Among peers, space is supreme!”
His mind jolted in agreement.
Indeed, during his battle with the One-Turn Quasi-Saint of the Three-Eyed Space Giant Tribe, he had indeed suffered from the Power of Space, trapped in the Eye of Space.
Only when one’s power is strong enough to utterly crush space can one be free of its constraints.
“Right, I must quickly comprehend the Power of Space!”
Ye Feng ran his Heart of Wisdom to its limit, traveling through this starry sky to comprehend insights.
This was the essential path to mastering the Power of Space.
Comprehension could only come from one’s own understanding to truly grasp the power of space.
Merging the experiences from his self-created Divine Skill, “Space Great Shift,” Ye Feng’s progress was swift. In no time, he raised his hand and a Heavenly Emperor-level Power of Space appeared in his palm.
“Congratulations, you have entered the domain of space!”
A cold voice came from the depths of the void.
The next moment.
Ye Feng felt a huge repulsive force pushing him away from the vast emptiness.
He opened his eyes.
He was still in the Sect Leader’s Great Hall.
“Am I back?”
Ye Feng lowered his head to look at the Heavenly Emperor-level Power of Space hovering above his palm.
This was what he had taken from that mysterious white space, also the entirety of the Power of Space he currently controlled, different from those stored in the System Space.
Rip!
This strand of Power of Space suddenly shot through the void, capable of tearing apart the space it passed through, revealing black fissures.
It circled around a stone pillar and then returned to Ye Feng’s side.
“A very strong force, as I continue to cultivate the ‘Spatial Codex,’ the Power of Space I can control will increase, its might will be stronger, and my comprehension will be deeper,”
Ye Feng whispered.
Recalling the experience when the “Seven Steps to Heaven” had become ineffective inside the Eye of Space, he couldn’t help but clench his fist tightly.
“Emperor Beihe’s Divine Skill is very strong, but there are times when it fails. I can’t always rely on this skill, I must create a stronger divine ability to sweep through all the mighty foes,”
Ye Feng said gravely.
If Emperor Beihe could create the “Seven Steps to Heaven,” then he could also attempt to self-create an unrestricted divine ability.
“At present, my strongest powers would be the Power of Time and the Power of Space, I should start here.”
Ye Feng whispered to himself.
He wanted to create divine skills related to these two powers.
With that thought, he felt a sensation in his heart and took out the Wind Spirit Pearl, using it as a mirror to look at the space between his eyebrows.
In addition to the original “~”-shaped time mark, there was now a white star-shaped mark in the center of the time mark.
That was the spatial talisman!
The marks were of little use for now.
They were only a symbol of identity for the time being.
Ye Feng didn’t pay attention to the marks and instead entered a state of tenfold speed flow, relying on the Heart of Wisdom to deduce a new divine skill that combined the powers of time and space.
At the summit of Misty Peak.
Gong Qingqiu couldn’t find Ye Feng and could only report back to Hu Feifei, while the Disciple Points Ranking was updated according to the disciples’ gains in the Barren Desert Secret Realm, accumulating their points.
“First place in the weekly ranking, Mo Ying, with 3700 points… That’s the equivalent of finding 37 Spirit Consolidating Fruits, truly impressive!”
“Second place in the weekly ranking, Yan Ruyu, with 1500 points, it seems she found 15 Spirit Consolidating Fruits.”
The disciples started discussing as they looked at the points ranking.
Now, with some time left before the weekly cultivation level blessing, the disciples undertook new missions and set off to various places.
Gong Qingqiu received a message and went to the City Lord’s Mansion in Whitefloat City, where he met people from various major forces.
“Greeting Elder Gong!”
The leaders of the various forces, some from Mystique Kingdom and others from the Leiwu Dynasty, possessed remarkable strength.
But in front of Gong Qingqiu, they didn’t dare to act rashly.
“Do all of you wish to purchase the Spirit Consolidating Fruits?”
After some polite conversation, Gong Qingqiu became aware of the intentions of the leaders of the major forces and asked.
“Yes.”
The leaders of the various forces nodded in agreement.
One of the leaders said, “Elder Gong, for one Spirit Consolidating Fruit, we are willing to offer ten Upper Grade Spirit Stones.”
“We can offer eleven.”
Another bid a higher price.
Gong Qingqiu hesitated for a moment and then said, “Although our Misty Sect has the Spirit Consolidating Ancestral Tree, the number of Spirit Consolidating Fruits is limited. Whether we can sell them externally, or how many we can sell, is not yet determined.”
“As long as we can buy some, that’s fine.”
The leaders of the various forces said one after another.
“This matter requires long-term consideration. I will report it to the Sect Leader and then provide you with an answer.”
“Thank you, Elder Gong, for your troubles.”
It was only then that the leaders of the major forces dispersed.
Gong Qingqiu watched the retreating figures with an expressionless face while the Deputy City Lord beside him wiped his sweat and sighed in relief, thinking to himself that it was good these people had finally left.
If they didn’t leave, the City Lord’s Mansion would struggle to bear the cost of their provisions.
“Deputy City Lord, please continue to manage the city. I will return to the sect and wait for the Sect Leader to finish his retreat. Once there is an answer, you can contact the leaders of the various forces.”
Gong Qingqiu instructed.
“No problem,” the Deputy City Lord patted his chest.
In the Sect Leader’s Great Hall.
Ye Feng was still deducing.
“I have the Time Mark, which can deprive an opponent of their lifespan, a thousand years each time.”
“I have the Spatial Talisman, which is not subject to any confinement by spatial power. Even if the opponent’s power of space is stronger than mine, they can’t confine me, allowing my power to travel as if entering an unoccupied domain.”
“Combining these two, along with the Sword of Slaughter, would certainly have a tremendous effect.”
Ye Feng continued his contemplation while forming hand seals.
The powers of space, time, and the Sword of Slaughter flitted around him, gradually showing signs of merging.
Bang!
As the three powers collided, a vortex of light and shadow erupted, engulfing Ye Feng within it.
In an instant,
Ye Feng felt as if countless swords had pierced through his body, each piercing devouring a thousand years of lifespan.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Feng lost one hundred thousand years of lifespan.
Had he not been cursed by the Time Curse with limitless lifespan, an ordinary person, even a Quasi-Saint, would probably die from the exhaustion of their lifespan.
“What a terrifying divine skill!”
Ye Feng couldn’t help but take in a sharp breath.
