”That sword just now… that was really powerful! It was the ice profound!” Snow Sword Master's sword just now hadn't pierced through the Stunning Sky, but Ye Chen knew it was only because the former had controlled it since it was only meant for demonstration. Otherwise, not to mention Stunning Sky, the might of this sword could even have pierced through the Extreme Void.

”This area is within the range of Wavy Snow Palace. This sword master ought to be Wavy Snow Palace's Lord, Snow Sword Master!” Ao Sengg said gravely.

Ao Cheng nodded, ”It's her without a doubt. No wonder it's said that she can be ranked in top five amongst sword masters. The light of this sword could heavily injure ordinary master grade characters.”

”As long as she doesn't plan on obstructing us, it doesn't matter. Otherwise, my Ao family's Master is not going to let it slide.”

The two were only somewhat moved by her power, and not apprehensive at all. After all, they were merely passing above the Wavy Snow Palace.

Misty Snow Region was at the southern edge of the continent. Moving further south, one would arrive at the Boundless Ocean.

Compared to the True Spirit Continent, the Boundless Ocean was indeed boundless. Nobody knew where its end lay, or whether it was the edge of this world.

If the end of True Spirit Continent had been discovered, the end of Boundless Ocean was yet to known. Thus, the danger it carried was several times higher.

One of the dangers there were the oceanic demonic beasts, also called marine beasts.

In the True Spirit Continent, the demonic beasts were limited, but demonic beasts in the Boundless Ocean were unlimited. If True Spirit Continent supposedly birthed one Demonic King, Boundless Ocean would have dozens of them. But, due to its enormous size, the chances of encountering one were still quite low.

Once he arrived at the Boundless Ocean, Ye Chen immediately felt that the winds here were too strong, to the extent that they could even pick up Clasping Yuan cultivators. In some areas, the turbulence had even transformed into wind blades which were as swift as lightning and issued air-piercing shrieks. Apart from the aforementioned feature, the water Yuan Qi in the sky was unusually thick, having formed ”water yuan drops”. Some drops were like grains of rice, sparkling while reflecting light, and others were as big as small hills, gradually floating in the air.

Creak!

A lightning bolt suddenly lashed out of the water yuan drops, dazzling to the extreme.

Ye Chen hadn't anticipated such an occurrence, and was forced to raise his left hand to block it.

En-route, Ye Chen suffered several lightning attacks. Fortunately, after being prepared beforehand, dodging them was not hard.

Soon after, Ye Chen saw an astonishing scene. A demonic bird was taken in by the water yuan drop after being struck by the lightning. Its corpse was slowly decomposed by it, absorbing it as nutrition.

”Could this drop have its own consciousness?” Ye Chen sighed inwardly at the marvels of the Boundless Ocean.

Around fifty-sixty li behind him, Ao Cheng and Ao Seng were in relentless pursuit like ulcers on skin.

”Five days and five nights…Is this guy made of iron?”

Ao Seng felt somewhat dispirited for the first time. This was inconceivable for someone who had inherited the Blue Eyed White Wolf bloodline.

Wolves were unusually tenacious species, and wouldn't give up so easily.

”Don't give up, Ao Seng.”

Ao Cheng had much more patience than Ao Seng. Of course, he was a tracker, so patience was an important virtue for him.

Ao Seng smiled bitterly, ”The Boundless Ocean is filled with danger. Don't tell me we're just gonna keep chasing, are we? This kid seems determined to play with us until the very end.”

”Who knows? The very next instant might be the moment of our success. Patiently wait for our opportunity.” Ao Cheng knew that Ao Seng's words were not without meaning. However, giving up before running into a wall was not his style, nor the style of Blue Eye Trackers. This had a huge influence on his martial dao.

…

”Big brother Ye, you must be very tired!” Wang Snake raised his head toward Ye Chen.

Ye Chen shook his head in response, ”Not really.”

In Bewilderment Fog Forbidden Zone, Ye Chen had sought for the way out over several consecutive months. He had preserved even under those hopeless circumstances, so how could he fail now? Moreover, it wasn't as if these five days and five nights hadn't brought him any gains. In addition to his five viscera and six bowels, he had already branded his soul imprint on the left leg, and right leg was also just one step away from completion.

However, despite him not being tired, Ye Chen had to admit that the distance between them getting shorter. On the first day, he was able to throw them off by nearly two thousand miles. On the second day, it was about sixteen to seventeen hundred miles; the third day, it was twelve to thirteen hundred miles; the fourth day, it had been reduced to eight hundred miles; and on the fifth day, he could only maintain a distance of three hundred miles. At the moment on the sixth day of the chase, the distance wasn't even a hundred miles. He could instantly sense them using his soul power.

”The purity of Zhen Yuan in my body isn't even thirty percent of what it used to be!”

After cultivating Green Lotus Zhen Yuan to the fourteenth layer, its purity was incomparable. As of now, although the overall amount of his Zhen Yuan hadn't decreased, its purity could only be compared to Green Lotus Sword Arts ninth layer. Fortunately, the sword steps art was created while focusing on the offensive speed. The requirements for offensive speed weren't high in terms of purity of Zhen Yuan. Otherwise, Ye Chen wouldn't be worth a fart before Sea of Souls realm experts.

Of course, the drop in the Zhen Yuan's purity affected the speed, but it was not that noticeable.

Fifty Li!

Thirty Li!

Ten Li!

At the dawn of the next day, the two parties were unprecedentedly close. For an ordinary person, the distance of ten li would take some time to traverse. However, for Ao Cheng and Ao Seng, traversing ten li would only take a blink of an eye. If not for Ye Chen always keeping a high speed, they would have already overtaken him.

”So close! Let's see how you dodge now.”

Ao Cheng's both hands reached out, ejecting dozens of greenish-red chains which looked like steel tentacles. They shot forward, surrounding Ye Chen instantly.
