Chapter 384: Existences Beyond the Fusion Realm
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the gravity space, Chen Yiming watched as the figures of the barbarian priest, the archangel, and the six-legged rhinoceros disappeared. At the same time, he suddenly felt like his body was being shackled.
Compared to before, the gravity his body was enduring was at least 100 times stronger. Every move he made was more strenuous than before, as if he was at the bottom of the sea.
“They, who have yet to completely transform into dark creatures, actually used the ability to switch spaces so quickly. What complete trash.”
At this moment, a disdainful gaze swept over. Its scarlet eyes were filled with killing intent, and liquid flowed out of its ferocious mouth, as if it was looking at delicious food.
Dark creatures would obtain a talent called the “Body of Darkness” after successfully undergoing the transformation ritual.
The body of darkness was equivalent to elevating a living creature in all aspects. The limits on its potential would be completely broken, and it would become a true member of the black tide.
During the process of evolving and becoming stronger, he would constantly collect negative emotions and evolve the level of his body of darkness. His strength would become stronger as the level of his body of darkness increased.
“Is this the strongest human? The three of us are not like those failures. I hope you can let us have some fun.”
Another indifferent voice sounded. The failures it was referring to were the priest, the archangel, and the six-legged rhinoceros.
The creatures who had surrendered to the black tide were divided into official and unofficial members based on their talent for the body of darkness.
Unofficial members lacked the talent for the body of darkness and could not increase their strength by gathering negative emotions. Therefore, they were referred to as failures.
“Dark creatures?”
Chen Yiming had no expression on his face. He looked straight at the three figures waiting for him in the gravity space. They were a dark werewolf, a dark iron corpse, and a dark mutant insect.
Their appearance was similar to the eight-armed shadow monster from back then. Other than their ferocious appearance, their bodies emitted a black aura that contained endless negative emotions. Few people would dare to let the black aura touch their bodies.
The black aura was the terrifying ability of the dark creatures from the black tide. At this moment, it was gradually filling the entire gravity space, and his senses were gradually being blinded as their figures slowly disappeared.
“There are a total of three spaces here, and they can be switched at any time. You have more than one group of opponents, and we are not affected by the gravity space. Are you shocked? Are you afraid and in despair?”
The dark iron corpse suddenly opened its mouth, and an additional aura of death appeared in the gravity space.
The death aura contained the will to falter. If one’s spiritual power was contaminated by it, the consequences would be very serious. At best, one’s fighting spirit would decrease, and at worst, one would suffer a mental breakdown.
“Kill him,” the dark werewolf said. The black aura, death aura, and gravity were all in place.
As soon as it finished speaking, the dark mutant insect seemed to have teleported in front of Chen Yiming.
With his perception severely disrupted and his movements restricted, the speed was so fast that Chen Yiming almost couldn’t react in time. He could only see the shell covered in complicated patterns appear like an illusion.
The patterns were blood red and were crawling slightly, as if they were alive.
“Slash!”
The divine light in Chen Yiming’s eyes intensified. He resisted the invisible shackles imposed by the gravity space and slashed at the dark mutant insect.
The divine sword carried a destructive white light as it slashed at the bug’s head. With a bang, black blood exploded in the air.
Immediately after, he struck out more than 100 times. The sword shadows shot out wantonly in the gravity space. Every strike almost tore through the space, causing countless distorted holes to appear in the air.
He was trying his luck to see if he could accidentally shatter the other party’s Undying Mark.
Suddenly, Chen Yiming’s eyes widened.
Not far away, the dark werewolf and the dark iron corpse smiled, as if Chen Yiming had fallen into their trap.
The divine sword had the ability to attack those at the fusion realm. They had discussed this before the attack. Although the dark creatures were conceited, it did not mean that they were stupid.
Moreover, the body of darkness had only allowed the dark creatures to transform their physique, giving them the possibility of continuing to evolve to become stronger. It was not something that could be used to deal with attacks from those at the same realm.
“So it’s another splitting ability.”
Chen Yiming lowered his head and saw that there was a hole in his chest. He had only cut off a portion of the mutant insect, and the rest of the mutant insect was hiding in the black aura. It had taken advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on him from behind.
“It’s only this much. No matter how strong the divine sword is, it’s still an external object. However, when your main body is attacked by the black aura, what can you do next? I’ll tell you first that it is extremely uncomfortable to be surrounded by the black aura.”
10 sharp claws suddenly extended from the dark werewolf’s palms. It sneered, and its eyes were filled with mockery.
Just as it had said, the wound on Chen Yiming’s chest was visibly expanding under the attack of the black aura. All kinds of negative emotions seemed to be alive in the black aura. Not only were they invading every cell of his body, but they were also invading his spiritual world.
Chen Yiming frowned slightly. He could feel the cells with the Undying Body talent starting to get angry and try their best to expel the black aura. However, since his body didn’t have the Undying Mark, he couldn’t recover instantly.
“I can’t completely underestimate the black aura. At the very least, it will slow down my recovery speed. There’s a delay because I need to get rid of the black aura before I can recover.”
The black aura caused a sizzling sound to appear from the wound. Chen Yiming focused his gaze on the three dark creatures again and gripped his sword tightly.
“Is that all you prepared? Then it’s my turn.”
With that, Chen Yiming charged forward with his sword and leaped into the air to appear in front of the dark werewolf and the dark iron corpse.
The divine sword in his hand appeared out of thin air, and hundreds of sword shadows instantly appeared. Each sword shadow was an attack formed by the combination of essence, energy, and spirit.
This immediately announced that the bodies of the dark werewolf and the dark iron corpse were about to explode into pieces. Furthermore, as long as a sword shadow hit their Undying Marks, they would truly die.
“It’s a physical sword shadow formed from the combination of essence, energy, and spirit! How is this possible?”
The dark werewolf and the dark iron corpse had never heard of this before. It had to be known that the ability to combine one’s essence, energy, and spirit consumed a lot of energy even when it was used as a single-target attack at the fusion realm.
What they did not know was that if the spiritual figure was far away from the main body, it would not be able to withstand such a huge expenditure.
However, because he was holding it in his hand, it was equivalent to returning to his main body. His Undying Body talent was like an eternal furnace, replenishing all his energy at high speeds.
If 100 strikes were not enough, 100 more strikes would not be a problem.
“Swish, swish, swish!”
As Chen Yiming swung his sword, hundreds of sword shadows shot out at the same time. They were like a sword formation that tore through the air and charged over.
The dark werewolf, the dark iron corpse, and the dark mutant insect hiding in the black aura were all covered by the sword formation formed by the sword shadows.
The surging destructive power temporarily rendered the black aura, death aura, and gravity ineffective.
“Oh no!”
The expressions of the three dark creatures changed drastically. They did not expect the injuries caused by the black aura to only be superficial.
At this moment, in the sealed space, their physical bodies were targets that were too big to completely avoid the large-scale attack. They could only control their Undying Marks to avoid the sword shadows as much as possible.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The three dark creatures exploded at the same time, and the black blood splashed in different directions. The three Undying Marks were hidden in three drops of black blood.
However, the sword formation formed by the sword shadows was too dense, especially for the dark werewolf and the dark iron corpse. The two of them were almost facing the sword formation head-on.
At the first sign of movement, the sword formation spun and pierced straight through it.
The second time, there was a faint cracking sound in the air. Something had been in a stalemate with the sword shadows for a moment before it exploded.
The third time, when he heard another crack, the space around him changed. The invisible shackles brought about by the gravity space disappeared, and Chen Yiming found himself on a green lake.
It was the corrosive space.
“Were the Undying Marks completely destroyed?”
This thought appeared in his mind, but Chen Yiming had no way of knowing the outcome in the other space. He could only wait for the next switching of the spaces to confirm it.
His gaze turned and stopped on a figure with his back facing him.
It was a human like him. Unlike the dark creatures, who were covered in a black aura, he was only wearing a black robe. His figure was as straight as a sword, and his silver hair fluttered in the wind.
“Human.”
Chen Yiming was surprised. He didn’t expect a pure human to be waiting for him in the corrosive space.
If it was not an alien, then it must have been an important chess piece left behind by the black tide in human society. Only now did it truly start to move.
Furthermore, in the previous illusion space and the gravity space, there were three creatures at the fusion realm, while the last corrosive space only had one human.
In terms of numbers, the corrosive space was undoubtedly the most special.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, hehehe.”
The man opposite him suddenly turned around, his face filled with hatred.
“You are…?”
Chen Yiming was confused. He didn’t remember seeing this person before. Why did it seem like they had formed an irreconcilable grudge?
“My name is Zhang Cheng.”
The man gritted his teeth and said word by word, his voice filled with anger.
“Zhang Cheng? Who’s Zhang Cheng?”
Chen Yiming quickly recalled his memories and confirmed that there was no such person in his memory. Even the name Zhang Cheng had never appeared.
“A year ago, you snatched away a student I had my eyes on in Jiangdu City.”
Zhang Cheng’s eyes seemed to be burning with flames as a terrifying spiritual power burst out. At the same time, the acid lake below started to boil crazily, and a large amount of corrosive gas gradually filled the air.
“So the other party was a teacher at the former Shanghai Martial Arts Academy.”
Hearing this, Chen Yiming instantly understood the source of the hatred. So it was Shen Mengwei. However, it was a little too much to say that he had snatched the other party’s student. At most, they had been competing fairly for her, and he had the better judgment.
“Shen Mengwei’s friend said back then that he only gave her an opportunity to enter the Shanghai Martial Arts Academy’s interviews. This doesn’t mean that she will definitely become a student and there’s still a chance that she might be rejected.”
This was equivalent to the sect’s entrance assessment. Could it be said that one who had yet to participate in the assessment had already become a disciple of the sect?
Shen Mengwei’s rise to fame would probably be dazzling enough to support a large faction, causing the teacher in charge of recruiting students to…
However, no matter what, it should not be the reason for him to become a lackey of the black tide and betray humanity.
“Tsk, so it was because of our bad blood that the black tide paid attention to you,”
Chen Yiming said disdainfully.
These words made Zhang Cheng’s face twist completely. He extended his arm and a black fruit appeared in his palm. Then, he stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it.
“Bang bang!”
The sound of drums echoed through the corrosive space.
“This is a dark fruit, a product of the invasion of this world. It contains a supreme will. I want to see you die here with my own eyes, hehehe.”
With a wild laugh, a purple lotus mark appeared on Zhang Cheng’s forehead. His gaze also changed, becoming as calm as an ancient well, as though he was ruling over all living beings. His gaze became cold and dead.
After laughing wildly and eating the fruit, he seemed to have become a completely different person.
At the same time, Zhang Cheng’s silver hair turned as black as ink, and the glint in his eyes increased exponentially.
An extremely active spiritual power surged over like a tsunami and collided with the spiritual power surrounding Chen Yiming.
“Boom!”
Chen Yiming’s expression changed. In a head-on clash, he was forced to retreat.
Of course, he did not rely most on his spiritual power, so he did not panic even if he was defeated in a spiritual fight. As long as it was not an existence that could instantly kill him, he was still confident.
“Melt.”
Zhang Cheng took a step forward expressionlessly, his hands supporting the air as if he was holding back the entire world.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The entire acid lake below was stirred up, and a spinning tornado exploded. It contained a terrifying corrosive power, and the tornado gradually shrank to the size of a palm.
“Did the tornado shrink, or was the space compressed?”
Chen Yiming’s expression was solemn. Clearly, the human in front of him only had his body left. This body belonged to Zhang Cheng, but it was completely controlled by the supreme will contained in the black fruit that Zhang Cheng had mentioned.
The tornado in his vision spun around and around. Gradually, Chen Yiming realized that something was amiss. He felt as though he was facing a pressure that came from the entire world.
“I can’t be careless. After swallowing the dark fruit, Zhang Cheng seems to have temporarily reached a higher level than the fusion realm.”
He reminded himself not to be rash before he figured it out and tried his best to avoid the attack.
“Go.”
Two tornadoes were thrown out by Zhang Cheng expressionlessly. The moment they left his hands, they instantly turned into the size of the lake.
“Rumble…”
Two tornadoes, one on the left and one on the right, occupied more than half of the corrosive space. They seemed to carry the power of heaven and earth as they charged at Chen Yiming.
Although they carefully avoided the space-travel barrier, the powerful aftershock still made the space-travel barrier seem as fragile as paper. As it swayed, it vaguely revealed the scene in the outside world.
The scene was a pitch-black underground space that was surrounded by black soil.
Seeing this, Chen Yiming glanced at Zhang Cheng. His eyes were as calm as if he had determined the outcome right after throwing out the tornadoes.
The spiritual figure communicated with Chen Yiming instantly. The divine sword left his body and slashed at one of the tornadoes. At the same time, he moved towards the only direction he could dodge in.
“Crack!”
The divine sword, which had always been successful after breaking through to the fusion realm, shattered the moment it came into contact with the tornado. Then, the Undying Mark was activated, and it turned into a stream of light that returned to Chen Yiming’s hand.
“Using an ordinary sword to fight against the heavens.”
Chen Yiming received this response from the spiritual figure. This was what he felt the moment the divine sword came into contact with the tornado.
Clearly, the tornado that had been modified by Zhang Cheng’s special technique was no longer at the level of the fusion realm. There was a difference in cultivation level.
On the other hand, the spiritual figure’s attack was only at the level of the fusion realm, so it was completely crushed.
At this moment, Chen Yiming was facing the tornadoes that were closing in on him. Suddenly, he was in a desperate situation. The enemy had mobilized a force that was one level higher than the fusion realm.
“I’ll give it my all!”
Chen Yiming deduced from the tornado attack that Zhang Cheng didn’t want to break the corrosive space, which was why he had been able to dodge earlier.
He used the sword formation that he had used in the gravity space, ignoring the exhaustion of his body and mind. He unleashed more than 100 sword shadows at once.
“Rumble…”
The sword formation formed by the sword shadows collided with the two tornadoes, creating a reaction that caused space to shatter and distort.
The sword shadows were dispersed without any hesitation. As more and more spatial cracks appeared that revealed the outside world, the acid lake below also exploded.
The water in the acid lake had not been specially modified by Zhang Cheng, so it did not have the power to surpass the fusion realm.
“If one round isn’t enough, let’s go for a second round.”
As soon as the hundreds of sword shadows formed by the combination of essence, energy, and divine erupted, the second sword formation was already accumulating power.
At this moment, all the cells in Chen Yiming’s body seemed to have been activated by the power of the Undying Body talent. They were constantly absorbing energy from the unknown void to quickly replenish his body and mind.
The spiritual figure was at the fusion realm, and his main body was at the inscription realm. When combined, he could truly unleash his true combat strength. Any large-scale attack could be thrown out as if it did not consume any energy.
“Rumble…”
The second sword formation was still easily dispersed by the tornado, and the shattered sword shadows shot towards the surrounding space barrier. From this, it could be seen that the difference in quality of the attacks was too great. It was definitely at a higher level than the fusion realm.
The only good news was that under the continuous eruption of the sword shadows, the power of the corrosion space seemed to have gradually reached its limit and was showing signs of further collapse.
“A third round.”
Seeing this, Chen Yiming retreated and dodged. Another sword formation formed by hundreds of sword shadows erupted.
Each of the sword shadows was a sword spirit. It was a terrifying attack that combined his essence, energy, and spirit. Although the special sealing item he was trapped by had created three spaces that could spread out the damage, and could split into three to maintain its stability, the total damage the three spaces could withstand was still limited. At this moment, the sword shadows that combined his essence, energy, and spirit were constantly wreaking havoc in the gravity space and the illusion space as well.
In the illusion space.
“High Priest, do you know what the situation is within the corrosive space?”
The archangel had just recovered from the explosion and immediately questioned the barbarian priest.
After the switching of the space, they had immediately focused on recovering their physical and spiritual strength. They wanted to try their best to recover as many uses of the Undying Mark as possible before Chen Yiming was transferred back to this space.
They were being cautious, even though they felt that Chen Yiming, the strongest human, wouldn’t be able to pass through the third space.
After all, the corrosive space had something that was left behind by existences that were not from this world.
“No, actually, I only have the ability to switch the spaces. I can’t do anything else.”
The barbarian priest’s gaze was solemn. His spiritual power spread throughout the entire space, and he could dodge the sword shadows that suddenly appeared at any moment.
“Think of a way! We don’t know when these terrifying sword shadows will stop.”
As soon as the six-legged rhinoceros finished speaking, the sword shadows disappeared, and Chen Yiming appeared.
“The space has been switched again.”
“You.”
The situation was very awkward. The barbarian priest, the archangel, and the six-legged rhinoceros were in a sorry state, and Chen Yiming was in a similar situation.
Half of his body was gone, and the glow of the sword-shaped mark in the hilt of the divine sword in his hand that represented the Undying Mark had dimmed significantly.
The reason why the space had changed for the third time was because Zhang Cheng had taken the initiative to retract the tornado. This was not because the specially modified tornado had been destroyed.
But Chen Yiming had unleashed more than 10 terrifying sword formations in a row. If this continued, the barrier wouldn’t be able to withstand it. If the barrier was broken, Chen Yiming would no longer be restrained by the cage and could just escape.
At the same time, the terrifying creatures that had come to the blue planet to take refuge began to take action.
