Chapter 964 Failure (2/2)

“Is it just my imagination?” mumbled Zhou Yuan to himself. He could not ascertain whether his hunch was correct because such a thing had never happened before to anyone.

His expression rapidly fluctuated. A long while later, he gradually composed himself. Although he had failed again, it was not without benefit. Zhou Yuan could feel that he was one step closer to a breakthrough.

He only needed more powerful Fallen Shadow Genesis...o...b.., and he would eventually unlock his ninth Divine Dwelling.

As for how to obtain them, Zhou Yuan was not worried because he would soon enter the super domain. The opportunities there would far surpa.s.s anything from the earlier domains. Getting another powerful Fallen Shadow Genesis...o...b..would not be difficult. However, he would likely have to flee again if he encountered Zhao Mushen.

At this thought, Zhou Yuan could not help but click his tongue. It had been many years since he had experienced this feeling of constantly having to run away. Zhao Mushen was a formidable foe, as expected of the king of Hunyuan Heaven’s Divine Dwelling stage pract.i.tioners.

However...king of the Divine Dwelling stage, you won’t be happy for much longer. When I unlock my ninth Divine Dwelling, the first one I’ll be coming for will be you!

Moreover, even without unlocking the ninth Divine Dwelling, Zhou Yuan was confident that if he went all out, he would at least make Zhao Mushen pay a substantial price even if he could not defeat him. It would be a price that Zhao Mushen might not be able to afford because he was not truly invincible among the Divine Dwelling experts. Wu Yao and Su Youwei possessed the strength that could threaten him.

After reaffirming himself, Zhou Yuan stood up. He found that Yuan Kun’s and Jiu Gong’s teams were still here. They were waiting for the spatial crack to fully stabilize before entering.

Yuan Kun and Jiu Gong likewise sensed that Zhou Yuan had ended his cultivation session and looked over.

A sliver of pity flitted across their eyes; they evidently realized that Zhou Yuan had failed to break through.

Yi Qiushui quickly walked over as she looked at Zhou Yuan in worry.

Zhou Yuan’s expression was calm as he waved his hand. He had experienced countless trials ever since stepping onto the path of cultivation. Hence, they underestimated his tenacity if they believed temporarily failing to unlock the ninth Divine Dwelling would leave him dejected.

He did not say anything and merely raised his head to gaze at the growing spatial crack in the sky. It slowly squirmed as the Genesis Qi storm within grew more savage.

Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes. He stared into the depths of the crack as if hoping to peek into its mysteries. His efforts, however, were fruitless. The only thing he sensed was the super domain’s vast and ancient aura.

He did not know what kind of opportunities would be inside, but he rather looked forward to them.

Perhaps, the long-antic.i.p.ated Heavenly Sun stage may be a possibility...

While such thoughts swirled in Zhou Yuan’s head, the spatial crack gradually stabilized, and the devastating storm slowly calmed.

Once it finally stabilized, Yuan Kun and Jiu Gong dashed into the sky without the slightest shred of hesitation. Nearly a thousand individuals closely followed behind them. They entered the spatial crack and disappeared in the blink of an eye as if swallowed by a giant mouth of darkness.

Zhou Yuan did not hesitate either. He made a ‘be careful’ gesture before rising into the air, leading his team into the still-slowly-squirming spatial crack.

When they entered, Zhou Yuan clearly felt all of his senses being stripped away. The entire world seemed to spin as s.p.a.ce distorted.

However, the feeling only lasted for a few dozen breaths before coming to an abrupt halt.

Zhou Yuan discovered that his surroundings had changed.

He swept his gaze across the area. He seemed to be in a starry sky. Countless broken islands floated among the stars, as the land had been shattered.

As he looked towards the starry sky’s depths, his pupils shrank slightly. There were several giant human-shaped statues silently floating among the stars.
