Chapter 1055 Universe Prison (1/2)

Zhou Yuan felt a weight off his heart. Although they had lost the mystical creature in the Nascent Source Tower, they had fortunately won the Heavenly Sun Tower and had prevented the situation from crumbling into an unbearable state.

“A supreme sovereign’s power is really too strong,” Zhou Yuan said, pursing his lips. Although the Tianyuan Region had won the match against the Great Five Alliance, in truth, Zhou Yuan had felt a tightness in his chest throughout the match. Ultimately, this was due to the pressure from supreme sovereign Wan Zu, who was behind the Great Five Alliance.

Supreme sovereign Wan Zu hadn’t acted personally, but some of his schemes had given Chi Jing and the others a feeling of crisis.

It was unknown whether supreme sovereign Wan Zu would stop since his plan had failed this time, but if he wasn’t willing to stop, the Tianyuan Region could never be peaceful.

Zhou Yuan sighed in his heart. There was no use overthinking the matter. If a supreme sovereign were to do anything, it wasn’t something that he, a little Heavenly Sun expert, could interfere with. The Tianyuan Region could only settle the problems when they came.

With this thought, Zhou Yuan slowly floated up and emerged from the top of the tower. Standing atop the tower, Zhou Yuan planned to return to the Tianyuan Region’s main camp. However, he noticed something was wrong.

It was too quiet.

Zhou Yuan stared toward the Tianyuan Region base camp where he could see Chi Jing and others, but he couldn't hear any voices for some reason.

It was as if he had fallen into an oil painting.

A gush of horror surged within Zhou Yuan’s heart. He clearly didn’t feel imprisoned, but the world seemed to have become a prison isolated from the rest of the world, preventing him from contacting the outside world.

In the face of such a terrifying imprisonment power, even Zhou Yuan was a little afraid.

“Supreme sovereign Wan Zu!”

He balled his hands into fists and gritted his teeth. Who else could create a prison-world apart from supreme sovereign Wan Zu!?

It was clear that supreme sovereign Wan Zu didn't intend to let Zhou Yuan leave with the mystical creature and had no choice but to take action himself!

Thick clouds stirred up in the void, and vaguely, there seemed to be a pair of indifferent eyes penetrating the domain and staring emotionlessly at him, the little ant struggling in the Universe Prison.

Zhou Yuan's spatial bag automatically opened itself, and the crystal ball containing the Wind Rain Lake’s mystical creature slowly floated up.

However, although that power seemed calm, it was impossible to oppose it, and Zhou Yuan could only watch his fingers crack open little by little. His flesh was exposed, and blood trickled out.

But Zhou Yuan still clung to the crystal ball with bloodshot eyes.

...

“Something’s wrong!” Outside the Wind Rain Lake, Chi Jing was staring intently at the silent black iron tower. Although there seemed to be nothing unusual, for some reason, she felt uneasy.

Sect master Xuan Kun and the others scrunched their brows in puzzlement when they heard Chi Jing’s cry.

Chi Jing didn’t waste any time and summoned an azure orb with a clench of her slender hand. Wrapped in monstrous azure wind, the azure orb flashed out of her hand and sped towards the Wind Rain Lake.

Om!

The Wind God Orb pounded into something as though it had struck some kind of invisible barrier. The space around it rippled endlessly, and the Wind God Orb, which contained infinite power, was directly hurled back!

It had made no impact!

“Universe Prison!”

Chi Jing, sect master Xuan Kun and the others immediately paled.

“Supreme sovereign Wan Zu is so shameless! He actually attacked a junior of the Heavenly Sun stage!” Chi Jing fumed. Who would have thought the high and mighty supreme sovereign Wan Zu would ignore the rules and take action himself after seeing his plan had failed!

However, Chi Jing’s voice didn’t evoke any response. She scanned the surroundings and found that everyone across the world was in a kind of silent and still state. Evidently, they were all imprisoned in the Universe Prison, and everything before their eyes was illusory and not real.

Perhaps, they saw Zhou Yuan exit the tower and witnessed him leaving safely.
