Chapter 2073: Dimensional Crack Over the Ying Yang Sea


Every cultivator who had entered the Ying Yang Sea had fresh memories of what happened in it. The birth of the Shenlong Chaos Tower of Sun and Moon, one of the top ten weapons, attracted the most powerful beings from all sides. But they all ended up beating a hasty retreat.


According to Blackie, if it wasn’t for the taboo figure unwilling to kill, no one could have made it out of the Ying Yang Sea alive.


Since then, the Yin Yang Sea had become a forbidden place, where no one dared to enter.


Someone, who should have been dead for hundreds of thousands of years, walked out of the Ying Yang Sea after so many years. There must be many mysteries behind this.


While Zhang Ruochen was deep in thought, a saint light flew from the outer sky all of a sudden.


Zhang Ruochen grabbed it with his hand as he came out of his thoughts.


“It is a communication talisman from Ao Xinyan.”


Taking a look at the transmission light charm in his hand, Zhang Ruochen’s face changed when he saw the communication talisman in his hand.


Ao Xinyan’s message was simple, with only one line of text: captain, hurry to Yin Yang Sea, something important needs your help.


“There is a taboo figure and Re-Awakeners in the Ying Yang Sea. What is it that needs my help?” Zhang Ruochen could not help feeling curious.


Wanting to ask Ao Xinyan what exactly it was about, he engraved a message and cast out the communication talisman.


Back then, Zhang Ruochen’s three meridians were destroyed. He left the Divine Dragon Halfling clan, planning to come back to Ao Xinyan to take back the dimensional teleportation array.


But then Ao Xinyan informed him it was the taboo figure of Yin Yang Sea who came forward to move the entire Divine Dragon Halfling clan to the ancestral land of the Divine Dragon race. The place was isolated and communication with the outside world was difficult.


Zhang Ruochen was happy for Ao Xinyan having such an encounter. So there was no hurry to retrieve the dimensional teleportation array anymore, as he knew the things would be in good hands.


He did not expect that there would be news from Ao Xinyan after so many years.


It did not take long before he got a reply from Ao Xinyan.


The situation in Yin Yang Sea is unique. I can’t tell exactly what through communication talismans. I wouldn’t have asked you for help if not for me being at my wit’s end.


After seeing the message on the communication talisman, Zhang Ruochen frowned spontaneously. What was it that made Ao Xinyan so anxious?


But at this time, he could not refuse Ao Xinyan, no matter what.


He immediately replied to Ao Xinyan, saying that he would depart for Ying Yang Sea right away.


After thinking for a while, he cast out another communication talisman. But this time, it was meant for Princess Bai Li in the Jiuli Palace, asking her about the situation of Yin Yang Sea.


I just got the news that Infernal Court has opened a dimensional crack near the Yin Yang Sea. A ma.s.sive number of troops are gathering. I am afraid that they are planning for something big. Princess Baili quickly replied.


Now it had become clear that Ao Xinyan’s request for help must be related to the Infernal Court. But there should also be a deeper reason for that.


“You summoned me all of a sudden—what’s up, Zhang Ruochen? I am busy studying the Divine Marks of Lake Phoenix, you know.” Blackie appeared to be not so happy.


“Come with me to the Yin Yang Sea. Something big is going to happen there.” Zhang Ruochen looked grave.


He could not help but tell Blackie about what he had learned and some of his conjectures.


“Infernal Court is quite something. I didn’t know that they could open a dimensional crack near the Ying Yang Sea. It surely consumes a lot of resources. What are they up to? Could it be that they have discovered the secret hidden in the Yin Yang Sea? Furthermore, how could the taboo figure in Yin Yang Sea allow the Infernal Court to poke its nose into the Yin Yang Sea? Is he no longer in the Yin Yang Sea? Or is he hibernating again? Also, what help does Ao Xinyan need from you so much that she has to ask you to go to the Ying Yang Sea? Is it related to the Infernal Court or something else?” Blackie asked a lot of questions when it opened its mouth.


Zhang Ruochen sank into contemplation. He had the same questions, too. Just that he hadn’t a clue for the moment.


If he wanted to figure out these things, perhaps he would have to go to the Ying Yang Sea.


He had little worries with his current level of strength.


He believed he could protect himself in case of trouble.


“I have got a feeling that the Yin Yang Sea is going to be a rabbit hole. Be prepared for trouble, Zhang Ruochen. Are you sure you really want to go down the rabbit hole?” Blackie looked grave.


Zhang Ruochen knew what Blackie was thinking. “This matter is of the first importance. It is likely to pose a great threat to the Kunlun Realm. I have got to check it out.”


“Besides, I have promised Ao Xinyan that I will do her a favor. So this trip down the rabbit hole is necessary.”


Blackie pondered as Zhang Ruochen had decided to go for it. “I will go with you then.”


As the decision was made, the two wasted no time departing for the Ying Yang Sea.


The usual route to the Yin-Yang Sea was departing from the Eastern Region, entering the wild and secret realm, and then going through the wormhole of the Divine-Dragon Halfling race.


But this route was way too slow.


Zhang Ruochen thought of the Three-Eyed Ancient lady, whose appearance in the Central Region probably meant that she knew a faster route.


Zhang Ruochen and Blackie followed the scent of the Three-Eyed Ancient lady and chased after her.


The Three-Eyed Ancient lady was quick. After tens of thousands of miles, Zhang Ruochen and Blackie finally caught up with her.


“Hold on a second.”


Zhang Ruochen performed a Dimensional s.h.i.+ft and came in front of the lady out of thin air. He hovered in the air above the clouds, blocking her way.


The purple-dress lady stopped. Layers of saint light with ancient Qi force appeared on her body; she was ready to fight. “You have followed me for so long. Are you thinking of taking back the Three-Leaf Nine-Life Flower?”


While speaking, her body exuded a powerful energy of hostility.


Zhang Ruochen couldn’t help but chuckle. “Don’t get me wrong. I come in peace, just wanting to go to Yin Yang Sea with you.”


“What are you going to do in the Ying Yang Sea?”


There was a cautious look in the eyes of the woman in a purple s.h.i.+rt. She did not really believe what Zhang Ruochen said.


“I don’t know what I will do until I arrive at the Ying Yang Sea.”


Zhang Ruochen did not lie. He really did not know what help Ao Xinyan needed.


How could anyone go somewhere and not even know what to do there?


The lady in a purple dress sneered, now even more suspicious of Zhang Ruochen.


She knew at first glance that Zhang Ruochen was Heaven’s Reach in his cultivation base. He could be deemed a top expert. But she did not see him as her opponent.


“The current situation in the Yin Yang Sea is complicated. As strong as you are, I am afraid that you are not going to make it back alive. My advice to you is to turn back.”


The lady in a purple dress apparently did not know Zhang Ruochen, nor did she know his achievements in the Kunlun Realm. Otherwise, she would not have underestimated him.


But that came as no surprise, considering she had always been staying in the Ying Yang Sea after her awakening. She knew little about what happened in the outside world.


Zhang Ruochen did not refute, and he insisted. “Thanks for reminding me. But I absolutely have to go there for a reason. Please lead the way.”


“Since you have a death wish, follow me then.” The purple-dressed lady hissed.


She then moved quickly into the mountains.


She had warned Zhang Ruochen. She would not say it the second time since he insisted on going to the Yin Yang Sea. He went at his own peril and could blame no one, even if he died.


Zhang Ruochen brought Blackie and followed her with no hesitation.


Just as Zhang Ruochen had expected, the lady in a purple dress knew the shortcut to the Yin Yang Sea. In the depths of the forest was an ancient dimensional teleportation array, through which they could reach the vicinity of the Yin Yang Sea.


The long-distance teleportation ability suggested that this dimensional teleportation array was of trans-realm level, not something that ordinary dimensional cultivators could create.


With the help of this dimensional teleportation array, Zhang Ruochen, Blackie, and the lady in purple dress soon arrived at the wild secret realm from the Central Region.


“It’s freaking cold here!” Blackie shuddered spontaneously as it stood on the edge of the Ying Yang Sea.


“The Yin Yang Sea has become colder than before.”


Zhang Ruochen could also clearly feel it. As cold as the Yin Yang Sea was before, the outer area was only detrimental to those cultivators below Demi-Saint rank.


But now it was completely different. The outer area could now pose a threat to top Saints, and even Saint Kings. No one knew what it would be like once they entered the Ying Yang Sea.


Zhang Ruochen suspected that most likely, it was that taboo figure who caused the Ying Yang Sea to turn into such an inhospitable place so that it would keep ordinary cultivators out.


“The Yin Yang Sea’s forbidden array has been fully activated. Even Supreme Saints could die here. Beside the danger of the Yin Yang Sea itself, there was also the threat from the Infernal Court. Did you see that dimensional crack? The army of the Nether Clan and Bone Clan from the Infernal Court is pa.s.sing over to the Kunlun Realm through that crack.”


“There is no shortage of top-notch cultivators there. It is a bad idea to engage them.”


The lady in a purple dress was cold in temperament, not particularly approachable. There were always layers of saint light on her body as she had never let down her guard against Zhang Ruochen.


Zhang Ruochen and Blackie looked at the horizon in the distance, where a huge dimensional crack came into view.


This dimensional crack was a thousand-yard-long, the opening looking like the b.l.o.o.d.y mouth of a beast that devoured everything.


A chill and dark energy was leaking out of the dimensional cracks in the air, filling an area of thousands of miles in the sky as dark clouds that blocked off the sun.


Many cultivators from the Nether Clan and Bone Clan were guarding the dimensional crack to keep intruders out. There was a skeleton as ma.s.sive as a mountain suspended in the air. Its eyes gave out a divine light that was as bright as the scorching sun.


There were also enormous palaces floating in the dark clouds. in the foreground of the blue sky were flags and people moving back and forth. Each palace was radiating with an endless energy, which suggested that there were cultivators of incredible strength inside.


Zhang Ruochen could feel that powerful energy from hundreds of miles away.


Thunk!


Several behemoths fell from the sky. The earth violently shook as they hit the ground.


It turned out to be a few giant dragons. They were of different shapes, powerful energy radiating from their bodies. But they were all seriously injured and could hardly move, let alone fight back.


Swoos.h.!.+


Several figures descended from a palace and stepped on a dragon. That dragon wailed in pain. Its body, which was as strong as molten steel, nearly split in half. It was a horrible sight.


“The dragons that ran away have all been captured. We should be able to unlock part of the Yin Yang Sea’s seal with them,” said a Netherkin cultivator.


They had double horns, bodies draped in dragon-scale battle armor and exuding an intense, dark curse aura.


A light gleamed in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes as he looked at a black Divine Dragon. He knew this dragon; it was the Heaven-devourer Dragon that had a vendetta against him in the past.


The Heaven-devourer Dragon was an ancient remnant, once the most powerful dragon in the Kunlun Realm. It was stronger than the nine Realm Bearers selected by the Divine Scripture Maiden.


Zhang Ruochen did not recognize the other dragons. But judging by their powerful aura, they must be the top powerhouses of Mount Zulong.


By the sounds of that Netherkin cultivator, it seemed that Mount Zulong had fallen and none of the dragons could escape.


“I see. They must be trying to extract the blood of the dragons and use it to remove the seal of the Yin Yang Sea. All dragons are more or less of the Divine Dragon bloodline. When all the bloodlines on Mount Zulong add up, it is no small matter,” said Blackie suddenly.


Zhang Ruochen could not help frowning upon hearing that. What was the Infernal Court up to by going to such great lengths to force open a dimensional crack and capture all the dragons on Mount Zulong?


While he was in thoughts, a ma.s.sive dark battles.h.i.+p that looked like a hideous taotie appeared on the Ying Yang Sea.


There were many cultivators of the Infernal Court on this battles.h.i.+p. All of them were above Saint Kinghood in their cultivation base, none of them weak.


The bodies of giant dragons were seen lying on the deck.


All the dragon bodies had shriveled, with no more blood in them.


“These dragons are inferior to the Divine Dragons, but they still have some uses. The thin bloodline of the Divine Dragons in these bodies could break the seal of an island. There is a tremendous benefit to be gained from it and there is hope of taking The True Dragon Islands, the island.” An elderly-looking powerful being from the Infernal Court burst into laughter.


“Since it is workable, then take all the dragons and go to The True Dragon Islands to meet the masters,” said the Netherkin cultivator with a pair of horns in a deep voice.


While speaking, this powerful being from the Infernal Court grabbed several severely wounded dragons and threw them directly onto the black battles.h.i.+p.


Resentment filled the eyes of the Heaven-devourer Dragon, but there was nothing it could do. As the heir to Mount Zulong, it was harrowing to watch the fall of Mount Zulong.


“d.a.m.n it! They are eyeing The True Dragon Islands.” The lady in a purple dress looked bitter.


“Legend has it that the True Dragon Islands are the ancestral land of the True Dragon race and contain many treasures collected by the True Dragons. It seems that there is still a rare treasure there. Is the Infernal Court after that treasure?” said Blackie after pondering for a while.


Most of the things about the True Dragons were mere legends. No one was sure if they were true. Blackie had heard that the True Dragons possessed a rare treasure by which even the immortals would be tempted.


“We must not allow them to invade the True Dragon Islands. I wonder if Ao Xinyan has contacted those powerful beings of the Kunlun Realm.” There was an anxious look in the eyes of the lady in a purple dress.


She wanted to stop the powerful beings from the Infernal Court, but she apparently hesitated.


Zhang Ruochen’s heart skipped a beat when he heard that. He did not know that he was not the only person whom Ao Xinyan had contacted. So what was going on?
