Chapter 453: Dead Star

Shi Mu’s surroundings were a blur. His entire body seemed to spin in a whirlwind, and the next moment, he found himself in complete darkness.

The surrounding space violently oscillated as cracks in the void which were hidden now became clearly visible. Though it was from a distance, a faint light could be seen through the cracks of various sizes.

Shi Mu’s body continuously swayed in this void, like catkins in the wind. A force tore from all sides, causing a severe pain through his whole body.

Fortunately, his physical strength was sufficient to withstand such a level of power.

As he struggled to stabilize his figure, he urged the spirits to look at the light but found that there was a doorway and a burst of suction. These suctions seemed to be disturbed by the force of the surrounding space. It became non-existent at times, as it was unstable.

“Don’t look! We are reaching our destination,” the Azure Ape King called out.

Shi Mu heard the words and turned to look at it from afar. The Ape King’s face was greenish. His body was under the pressure of the environment as a ticking sound could be heard in his bonds.

“Predecessors, how are we going to determine that we arrived successfully?” Shi Mu asked loudly.

“If I’m not mistaken, the passage here was destroyed by the golden jiao serpent, hence it is filled with cracks now. Even if the cracks are repaired, it is impossible to determine what would happen. Even I have difficulty protecting myself, I doubt you could even…”

The Azure Ape King said as his body was wrapped in a layer of green. He flew toward the distant spot, trying to avoid the cracks in the surrounding space.

Upon hearing his words, he was shocked.

Through the cracks in the space, he could indeed feel a strange power capable of destroying everything.

“Hua la!”

He used the mana to prop up a shield. At the same time, the fire flashed behind him and a pair of flaming wings stretched out, forcing him to resist the tearing force of the surrounding space in the distance.

At this time, the entire space once again swayed violently!

The cracks in the surrounding space became more frequent and the void itself seemed to collapse. Even the bright doorway in the distance was distorted. What appeared to be several cracks were visible in the white light.

Several times, Shi Mu felt an increase of that tearing force through his whole body. Even with the blessing of the back wings, it was impossible to completely stabilize himself as he constantly swayed.

Roar!

Not far ahead of Shi Mu, the Azure Ape King was stunned by the blue light. As he screamed, the muscles on his body bulged as if they would burst.

His body hair turned blue and rapidly grew longer, layer upon layer, covering his whole body until he transformed into a giant cyan ape.

After the Azure Ape King had transformed, his body shook a little and finally stabilized.

With his arms crossed in front of his forehead, he carefully stepped toward the bright door hole.

However, at this moment, the side of the body suddenly fluctuated as a black line flashed silently.

Even though the Azure Ape King had been careful, the turbulent flow of the space was too sudden, concentrated like a sharp blade.

The blue light on the shoulders of the Azure Ape King suddenly split and a blood line appeared. One of his arms was torn off from his body, spilling blood that flowed in the water. The Azure Ape King could not contain himself from screaming, yet he did not stop moving forward. In fact, he accelerated its pace.

Shi Mu was shocked, and was now caught in a dilemma. He could only bite his head and continued to walk toward the bright door.

Ka-boom!

At that moment, suddenly there was another loud noise in the space as a buzzing sound echoed!

Shi Mu could feel that the force of tearing around the space once again increased several times. The barrier wrapped around his body was cracked with blue light, and began to form a pathway.

Shi Mu’s handcuffs were linked. He mustered a large amount of qi within his body and a white light skyrocketed as the surface cracked once again closed under the force of huge space oppression.

Suddenly, there was a turbulent flow of space in the cracks above Shi Mu’s head. Like an invisible blade, it passed directly through the surface of the spirit shield.

The spirit shield collapsed and smashed into pieces.

Huff!

At the moment Shi Mu rushed through the space crack, he urged his fire wings to move away from the side for a certain distance. He was spared from danger, but not far behind him was a turbulence in the void.

Cha!

The fiery wings were slashed and cut until they had been reduced to a small red light.

Before Shi Mu could even react, the spatial cracks around and behind him rapidly expanded at the same time. A stream of turbulence flowed out of it and Shi Mu was swept away.

Shi Mu turned and his left hand suddenly became black. A white flame wrapped around his arm and he clenched his five fingers into a punch.

Boom!

Under the punch, the white flame rolled and a new white space cracked immediately. The engulfing space was turbulent and it fell into the crack to an unknown space.

Shi Mu’s head was already cold and sweaty but he did not think much about it and hurriedly walked forward.

The Azure Ape King, who was a distance away, was now in front of him. There was still a distance of nearly a hundred feet from the bright doorway at the end.

However, seeing that there was only a thin layer left in the blue light, while resisting the turbulent space turbulence. It was still trying to avoid the space cracks that appeared from time to time. His whole body was under the pressure of huge space. It had been deformed as the skin became red and bloody. It was undoubtedly extremely painful.

The closer to the bright door hole, the more unstable the space, the frequent cracks and the turbulent flow.

Shi Mu secretly cursed in his heart.

There were more cracks and spatial turbulence here. Obviously, this temporary space passage established by the ancient transmission array was already on the verge of collapse due to the last blow by the golden jiao serpent. It was not a surprise that the Azure Ape King was so eager to reach the other side. Otherwise, it was very likely to completely fall into the turbulent space as the bones were cut.

As a result of wanting to step out, he suddenly found that a powerful space came out behind him. His body was pulled slowly under the force of this space and became very slow.

He was shocked and quickly swept away.

His left fist broke a piece of empty space. Although he temporarily avoid the threat, the crack behind expanded again after the influx of space, and united with several spatial cracks around it. The power of the gushing space grew rapidly.

If he did not get out of this area as soon as possible, this increasingly powerful space was more than enough to swallow and smashed them.

However, the cracks in the front space were one after another and each step was full of dangers and hardships.

“Ah!”

Shi Mu felt that there was a horrifying silence behind him, and his heart pounded so hard that he couldn’t help but scream.

The blood in Shi Mu’s body suddenly became hot, as if boiling up.

The surface of the golden light flashed and the mysterious runes from his body swung like a butterfly, surrounded by a circle.

With the appearance of these golden runes, Shi Mu then felt that the pressure was light and no longer suffocating.

Shi Mu gazed calmly but he had no time to rejoice. Once again, he was surprised.

The entire space channel violently trembled again, and this time it was more fierce than before. The cracks on the side of the path were one after another.

This time the fluctuations did not have any effect on them. They were surrounded by golden light and did not feel the slightest spatial fluctuations.

In the distance, in front of the bright door, the naked eye was already in a crisscross space crack. In the violent tremor, the knot collapsed.

“No!”

The Azure Ape King who had been incarnated into a giant cyan ape swayed back a little as he tried to sneak into the cracks of the space. It was too late to scream as it popped out from the surface. Passing by, his body flashed and he was cut into seven or eight pieces with blood overflowing from his injuries.

At this moment, the Azure Ape King opened up his mouth and a blue glow flew out from it, rolling over his head and galloped forward.

It did not fly far but it seemed to be able to sweep the entire space channel in an instant. It immediately crushed several pieces of corpses, including the skull of the Azure Ape King into a group of bloody fog.

In the midst of Shi Mu being stunned, the golden light that wrapped around his body suddenly converted and turned into a golden light. In just a flash, Shi Mu disappeared from the void.

In that moment when golden jiao serpent wrapped around Shi Mu, he felt a little confused and lost consciousness.

It was unknown how long it lasted but when he opened his eyes, he found himself in a new dream.

The reason why it was a dream was because he could not move. Every time before he entered into a dream, he would face such difficulty which was very normal.

Only this time, he did not appear in the white but in his own human body. It appeared in a vast starry sky and stood in the void outside a khaki-colored planet.

This feeling was somewhat illusory though everything in front seemed very real.

Although it was only a distant view, Shi Mu could also feel the huge size of the earthy yellow planet. How small it looked like in front of this planet was like a gravel in the vast sea of sand.

He was shocked but in the end, he flashed a trace of doubt.

This seemingly huge planet had not much life and it seemed a bit lifeless. He could not even feel the aura of the heaven and earth.
