Chapter 781 - Void Corridor (1/2)

Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_

As a Voidwalker, Xue Ying had an easy time traveling in the primal chaos void. He could easily avoid most trouble he met with his acute senses. But his journey was a lonely one; he rarely met any other living beings.

He could perceive some life forms from the distant, but most were ‘void creatures’.

Void creatures were beings born from the primal chaos void. There were all kinds of such creatures, with some being the rarely seen humanoid void creatures. Since these void creatures were born in such a hostile environment, it gave rise to the testament of their great inborn strength! Most would reach the ‘True God Ruler’ power once they were adults. Furthermore, their bodies were exceptionally suited for living in the primal chaos void.

But because they were innately powerful, it was harder for them to become stronger. After all, they depended on their talent to become strong. The majority of them did not know how to cultivate. Even after attaining cultivation techniques, it was still difficult for them to break through.

Like the ‘Hundred Leading Howls’ which he once fought within the Starting Ground, its original form was that of a void creature. The creator of the Voidwalker system, the ‘Voidwalker Primogenitor’ who created the “Walker’s Hidden Secret” had been a lifeform who was born in the primal chaos void too. But his innate talent was much more heaven-shaking, and currently, he was one of the three Cosmos Gods within the ‘Eastern Unicorn Sacred World’. Comparing power and statuses, he was higher as compared to Forefather Tian Yu.

“Hu~”

As Xue Ying persisted on his journey using the Void Evasive Maneuver, most of his concentration was spent studying the “13 Apocalyptic Swords”.

He had left the cosmos immediately after acquiring this Temple Protection Absolute Art. That was why he had only genuinely begun comprehending it at the start of his journey. Initially, he thought that with his experience–he had cultivated for a billion years after becoming a Ruler, accumulating much experience and wisdom, coupled with the comprehension ability of which he felt confident of, learning the first sword wasn’t something complicated.

But in reality…

“I haven’t comprehended it after studying it for about 50 million years.” Xue Ying shook his head in helplessness, “Even though I’ve comprehended the majority half, there are still many perplexities which I could not get through. If only there were an opponent for me to fight with, it might give me greater inspiration and faster comprehension of the profound mysteries in the sword techniques which I discovered.”

Even though it was a sword technique, the inherent Dao could be used across different arts! After grasping the first sword, it would be much simpler to adapt it into a spear technique.

“But it is beneficial to my comprehension of the Dao of Slaughter.” Xue Ying still liked it a lot. Even though he had not fully comprehended the first sword of the “13 Apocalyptic Swords”, it had deepened his understanding of the Dao of Slaughter, making it more incisive and firming his foundation of it.

…

Just as Xue Ying was traveling and studying the Temple Protection absolute art, suddenly, there was a distortion in the primal chaos void ahead.

“Not good.” Xue Ying’s expression changed considerably. He tried his best to use the Void Evasive Maneuver to escape, but the surrounding void energy had utterly distorted, preventing him from controlling it at all. At this moment, he was just like a tiny ant amidst the colossal maelstrom. No matter how he struggled, it was futile.

As for flying? The surrounding void energy was being warped, making movement difficult as well.

“It seems that I have met some trouble.” Xue Ying was not panicking. Just like how the ocean had tides and whirlpools, the primal chaos void would usually have some unique occurrences. Still, most Voidwalkers were able to survive with their great survival capabilities. Only rarely would they fall into some unforeseen plights.

For instance, being swallowed into a specific sealed void region? That was possible as well.

The surrounding region of primal chaos void which covered the area occupied by a hundred cosmoses was being warped. Everything headed towards the point of collapse–the center. At the core, there was a halo of rainbow light.

“That is?” Xue Ying was also moving with the collapse of the primal chaos void. He was being swept along towards the core.

The closer he got, the clearer his vision became.

At the center…

There were many layers of colorful spatial folds. They seemed to be coming from a different space and had layered upon this location.

“Void Corridor?” Xue Ying could recognize it.

The Void Corridor was formed from different regions in the primal chaos void resonating with each other. It would cause the void to start collapsing and interconnecting with each other. It might even be a wormhole that led to a different far away region.

Some of the stronger cultivators could display a similar resonating technique to a distant location by folding space, traveling to another area just by penetrating through the corridor! They could instantaneously arrive at another sacred world from one sacred world despite the considerable distance in between.
