Chapter 245 - Following (2/2)

The crack became an inch. The moment it did, the man in white that became aghast! He was in utter disbelief at the series of events. If anyone had even told him that a cultivator on the Essence Path was using his qi cultivation base to open up a inter-heavenly spatial tunnel, he would disregard their opinions from henceforth!

Yet, here it was.

Yan Zaizen was also in disbelief. His dao amplification wasn't simple. It felt as if it amplified his laws as well! This was a first! Before, his dao had only enhanced the medium of his laws, but now it acted as if his connection to heavenly law was directly being enhanced.

Just as he was reveling in his newfound power, he heard a soft, tender cry within his soul.

”Zai...”

Those words caused his heart to tremble as he looked at the crack in space. From there, a faint sound that seemed to calm his very heart resounded. His eyes of a king, no, of a sovereign, turned softer in an instant.

”Pinaka?!” He lowly shouted. Before, he could assess more, a voice spoke from behind him.

”You should stop. If you try to forcefully open up that spatial tunnel more, you could collapse it and it'll be worse than an entire Grand Realm collapsing.” Initially, the man in white had no intentions to interfere. However, Yan Zaizen displayed an ability that should've been well beyond his cultivation base and age. Not to mention, the backlash that should've killed anyone under the seventh-floor Heavenly Genesis Realm was being withstood by him without any harm.

The only reason he allowed Yan Zaizen to do so was to expand his horizons and understand his limitations, but that didn't seem likely. With that, he decided to inform him of the consequences. ”You can already see the split effusing cataclysmic energy.” He calmly pointed out.

Yan Zaizen was originally going to ignore him, but he looked at the crack and his pupils constricted. There was a one millimeter golden circle at the center of the crack. This was the same type of circle produced from a sub-realm collapse!

As it grew, so did the intensity of the explosion until it could no longer contain the energy and violently erupt.

Earlier, he had felt a deep sensation of danger, but decisively ignored it! He didn't notice the cause before, but with a thorough inspection, it was as plain as day. This caused his heart to race. If an inter-heavenly spatial tunnel were to collapse, would the black hole be able to devour it?

No! His thinking was wrong. If it exploded, he still wouldn't be able to go home! If this man was telling the truth earlier, wouldn't he be stuck in the 27th Heaven?!

He had to stop.

”Zai!!” The voice was clearer than before.

”Pinaka?!?!' Now he was sure. Pinaka was within the spatial tunnel! As she grew nearer to this heaven, the connection between them became stronger!

During the beginning of the Earthly Beginning and Heavenly End Trial, Pinaka vanished. He didn't understand why or how, but he knew she was still alive. Not believing he was going to be sent to another heaven, he didn't feel one way or another about it. After all, he would see her after.

However, the true reason Yan Zaizen wanted to rip open the heavens to return was because of Pinaka! When he thought of not seeing her for countless years, the rage in his heart turned into the fiercest of hatred.

As he pressed against the crack, he felt the expansion of the golden circle and the resistance it offered. ”Wait! If I close this now, what happens to the built up energy?” If this cataclysmic energy was being stored, where would it go if he stopped?

”...” The man in white was confused, furrowing his brows, he answered, ”it'll spread through the tunnel, it'll be harmless.”

These words to anyone else would be a relief and lead to the closing of the tunnel, but Yan Zaizen only felt dread! He absolutely can't!

”Come!” He thunderously shouted, his amber-gold eyes became more tyrannical and fierce. He used two hands, gripping the crack as if it was a physical crack in a wall.

”Even if the world is destroyed, she can not be!” His thoughts spiraled as he attempted to communicate with Pinaka through the spatial crack. His body effused vibrant spatial-attributed vital energy as he used the Regalia of Mimicry ability! With this, he struggled to maintain the crack.

Seeing Yan Zaizen take such actions, the man in white frowned but didn't make a move. Instead, he was curious at Yan Zaizen's actions and only watched.

”I'm coming!” Pinaka's voice was as clear as day. This meant their connection was growing stronger.

”Come on. Come on!” He felt his body split apart at a cellular level, but they regenerated at a pace that the destruction couldn't match. Keeping open the crack without expanding it was harder than opening it! For the first time in a long while, he felt his body reaching a limit.

A soft blue light shone from the cracks. It approached at a staggering speed that seemed to be faster than light itself.

Yan Zaizen grew deeply excited. The man in white wore an expression of understanding and smiled slightly. He actually misunderstood something. He believed Yan Zaizen's actions from the beginning was to save this spirit and not to return. Because of this, his impression of Yan Zaizen favorably shot up several points.

The soft blue light shot like a bullet. Before Yan Zaizen could say anything, a soft physical form smashed heavily into his body. He released the crack and embraced this physical form.

Boom!

The crack slammed closed in an instant. A slight rumbling sound emitted in the surroundings. This was caused by the release of cataclysmic energy.

Yan Zaizen's dao aura faded, and his expression had a hint of warmth. With a sly smile, he said jokingly, ”following me to another heaven? Some may think things.”

In his embrace, a soft voice resounded that caused Yan Zaizen's heart to stop and his mind to go blank, ”I'll follow you anywhere! Every step, every breath!”
