Chapter 1643: God Realm

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

A strong and formidable aura suddenly exploded around Rong Xiu! The next moment, golden and black fire suddenly appeared in the air before him. They intertwined and formed a long whip that harshly slashed forward.

Slap!

A crisp and loud ear-piercing sound was heard!

On the ground, the formation of the rocks was directly damaged by this terrifying force all of a sudden!

Peng! Peng! Peng!

The rocks exploded one after another! They instantly turned into powder!

That strange force was instantly crushed!

Rumble!

The two forces smashed against each other as violent ripples started spreading in all directions.

Chu Liuyue felt that the surrounding space was harshly crushed by some force, causing one to suffocate. She instinctively wanted to look up, but she felt a thick and strong hand gently and determinedly press her back into his arms.

The next moment, the suffocating feeling quickly disappeared as if it had never appeared.

“It’s just a small trouble.” Rong Xiu’s voice was especially low as he hugged Chu Liuyue tightly in his arms. When he spoke, she could clearly feel the vibrations in his chest.

It was warm and firm. It was as if he could block all the sun and rain for her when he was around.

Chu Liuyue nodded lightly.

At this moment, the formation made by the rocks on the ground suddenly started collapsing!

Crack!

A crack rapidly spread to the two of them! Following this, Chu Liuyue felt that she had no footing!

The duo’s bodies fell forward suddenly!

…

It was pitch black before them, and she couldn’t see anything.

Chu Liuyue could only hear the wind howling by her ears, Rong Xiu’s beating heart, and his breathing.

Chu Liuyue was about to speak when she realized that there was heavy suppression in her surroundings, causing her to be unable to speak!

She couldn’t help but be secretly shocked. I’m already a true god warrior, and my combat skills are much stronger than most cultivators of the same level. Something that can restrain me to such a state… It shows just how shocking the force here is! 

Suddenly, a faint golden light appeared and covered the two of them. The surrounding terrifying suppression instantly became much lighter.

After some time, the two of them finally stood on solid ground.

When her feet touched the ground, Chu Liuyue heaved a sigh of relief and looked up from Rong Xiu’s arms toward the surroundings.

Other than the barrier set up by Rong Xiu, she still couldn’t see anything here.

“What kind of place… is this?!” Chu Liuyue knitted her brows and couldn’t help but mutter.

What entered her eyes was clearly a patch of black, but faintly, there seemed to be a vague light. But that light disappeared very quickly, and it was very dim, causing Chu Liuyue to suspect that she was hallucinating.

“This is the light produced when God Realms intertwine and the forces hit against each other,” explained Rong Xiu.

“All those… They all are?!” Chu Liuyue suddenly widened her eyes in shock. I’ve seen at least four or five rays of light. If it really is like Rong Xiu has said, doesn’t it mean that there are at least four or five God Realms here together?! 

“That’s not right!” Chu Liuyue knitted her brows tightly. “How could there be God Realms here?”

If I haven’t guessed wrongly, we’ve fallen underground. But no matter if this is underground or aboveground, this area has many true god tombstones—this is without a doubt. Ancestor said that all the cultivators had died back then, and their souls were destroyed! If so, why would the God Realms of legendary warriors be left behind here?

Rong Xiu looked at his surroundings. The black and gold in his eyes had long disappeared silently, and Chu Liuyue didn’t see it.

He raised his hand and produced a fist-sized pearl.

The surroundings became much brighter, but other than the black ground beneath their feet, the duo did not see anything else.

The darkness in the surrounding space seemed unable to split away. Even if the light of the bright pearl could drive away a portion of the darkness, it could only illuminate a ten-step radius.

The further places were still a patch of darkness as if all the light had been swallowed.

Rong Xiu squinted his eyes slightly and retracted the barrier around the two of them.

The suppression here was much lighter than above. Even without the barrier protecting them, it wouldn’t have much effect on them.

At this point, Chu Liuyue felt the ripples in the surroundings more clearly.

In the dark, it was extremely obvious that a few forces were silently intertwining. Chu Liuyue was very familiar with this feeling.

She held her breath in and raised her wrist slightly.

Countless silver-red lights suddenly appeared in her palm. In the blink of an eye, they surrounded her.

Very quickly, a glowing light appeared in her surroundings and quickly disappeared. However, Chu Liuyue saw it clearly this time!

That was indeed the energy ripple that was produced after the God Realm at the side intertwined with her own God Realm! However, the force in that God Realm was weak. After a slight touch, it moved backward.

Thus, it was also why Chu Liuyue couldn’t detect the existence of this God Realm previously.

“This…” Chu Liuyue retracted her own God Realm, furrowed her brows, and fell into deep thought. God Realms can’t exist independently outside of a cultivator. Even for me, who has once experienced life and death, my soul wasn’t truly destroyed. Hence, my God Realm could be preserved safely in one piece at Fengmin Mountain. 

However, this is the God-Killing Tumulus. The tombstones everywhere are sufficient to state the problem! 

“Could it be that a small portion of the people back then left behind their souls?” asked Chu Liuyue with uncertainty.

At this point, a rock suddenly rolled to Chu Liuyue’s feet.

Chu Liuyue looked down, and she tensed up! Where did this stone come from?! Why does it seem like it’s pestering me? 

Just as Chu Liuyue was about to take action, Rong Xiu held her back. “Hold on.”

Chu Liuyue looked at him strangely.

Rong Xiu lifted his chin.

Chu Liuyue followed his gaze and held her breath in.

She suddenly saw a ray of light in the darkness before her. This light didn’t disappear right after flashing like the previous ones and seemed to be approaching them continuously.

This… This God Realm is coming toward us? 

Just as this guess flashed across Chu Liuyue’s mind, the God Realm had already gotten close to the duo.

At this point, using the glow from the pearl, Chu Liuyue finally saw that the God Realm was a faint-blue color. The color was very faint, as if it would disappear with the wind.

Chu Liuyue’s entire body stiffened! This God Realm— 

Huala!

Without waiting for her to think clearly, she saw the God Realm suddenly crash down like a waterfall! It entered the rock beside Chu Liuyue’s feet!
