As soon as he stepped through the dark archway, Li Chen felt a whirlwind sensation.
This dizzying feeling was sowhat familiar to Li Chen, yet he couldn’t be sure.
"The power of space? And it’s of a very high level?" Li Chen frowned slightly.
Perhaps for an ordinary martial artist passing through such a place, it would result in a headache. But for soone like him, who was already proficient in the power of space, this spatial transference would have no effect.
After all, he had already mastered the space teleportation ability, and such power of space couldn’t trouble him.
Instinctively, to steady himself, Li Chen wanted to use the power of space to protect himself.
At the sa ti, he reached out to grab the nearby people.
But just as Li Chen’s power of space spread out, an overwhelming consciousness suddenly descended.
"..."
In the instant this terrifying consciousness descended, Li Chen found himself unable to speak, staring wide-eyed in shock.
"What is going on?"
"Is this the power that can erase high-level powerhouses of the Silver Do Realm? But why is it descending now? I’m not even of the Higher Heaven Realm..."
Li Chen’s mind was almost frozen. He could even sll the scent of death wafting around him, yet he could only stand there silently, unable to act.
"Boom——"
The terrifying consciousness ca and went quickly, seemingly taking just a glance at Li Chen before departing swiftly.
As soon as that terrifying consciousness left, Li Chen slowly regained his senses, realizing his whole body was soaked in sweat within just a few breaths’ ti.
"What... exactly was that?!" An unspeakable shock stirred within Li Chen’s heart.
It wasn’t as if he hadn’t seen powerful beings, he had even t a Heavenly King before.
Whether it was that woman or the Tree Demon Ghost Mother, both had combat power at the Heavenly King level, even more terrifying than the two Heavenly Kings outside the secret realm at that ti.
However, Li Chen could feel that even if the Tree Demon Ghost Mother and that woman were combined, they wouldn’t be one-thousandth as terrifying as the owner of that consciousness.
Trembling all over, Li Chen finally regained his mobility.
Yet, just as he landed, Li Chen discovered that there was no one around him.
The ones who had entered the archway with him, Li Youxue, Mo Wushang, and Yan Jing, none of them were by his side.
"Did I experience a teleportation error? Could it be because of that consciousness?" Li Chen felt slightly bitter in his heart.
What bad luck! It should have been just a simple traverse through an archway, but that terrifying consciousness was a disaster out of nowhere.
Looking around, Li Chen realized he was on a small island, surrounded by an endless stretch of Wangyang.
And there he was, left all alone on this island.
"This is getting interesting." Glancing at the sowhat gloomy sky, Li Chen showed a wry smile.
However, what Li Chen didn’t know was that after that consciousness retreated, ancient voices seem to echo in the void where the teleportation occurred.
"There is a Demon King-level mark on him, but it’s not the true body, the mark... has been erased."
"A Demon King-level mark? Have people from the Demon Realm already reached here?" A woman’s cold laughter echoed through the void.
"The Demon King mark is no big deal, but... I seem to sense the essence of the world on him." The ancient voice spoke hesitantly.
"The essence of the world? Could it be that he has..."
"Very possibly."
Upon hearing the ancient voice’s words, the woman’s voice suddenly beca more complex: "After countless years, could it be that I’ve finally found that person?"
"One billion two hundred seventy million years." The ancient voice replied.
"Old fellow, are you mocking ?" The woman’s voice carried so dissatisfaction.
"I wouldn’t dare." The ancient voice had a hint of wistfulness: "But, in the end, this is not your ho."
The woman’s voice suddenly fell silent.
"After I leave, I won’t be able to help you with repairs anymore." The woman finally spoke after a long pause.
The ancient voice carried a peculiar emotion: "As the Nether River, I’m originally a part of Heaven’s reincarnation. Over the past billion years, you’ve helped a lot, and now I can handle the rest on my own."
"Old fellow, you..."
"Ultimately, I must go back. Without my existence, Heaven’s reincarnation is incomplete, and now, it’s ti for to return and fill that missing piece." The ancient voice spoke calmly.
"Have you really decided?" The woman’s voice was strange, clearly indicating her emotions were not calm at the mont.
"I’m just going to do what I must. But, noticing my return, the characters of the Three Realms won’t just watch as Heaven returns to its peak; they will surely take action, and when that happens, I’ll need you to pay more attention to them."
Seeing the woman remain silent, the Nether River continued: "I’ll go do what I should, and you should—"
"Shut up! I don’t need you teaching what to do!" The woman’s voice was sowhat annoyed.
Hearing the anger in the woman’s words, the Nether River burst into laughter: "Prepare yourself, and et him later. Perhaps this young one might truly be your new master."
"Old thing, do you believe I’ll drain half your river?!"
"As you wish, feel free to take it. Anyway, I was just a small broken segnt saved by you back then, this old life was rescued by you, feel free to take it." The Nether River’s words carried a mixture of helplessness and a peculiar carefree attitude.
The woman was furious upon hearing the Nether River’s words but chose to ignore him.
If external powerhouses heard the conversation between these two, it would definitely cause a huge sensation.
What is the Nether River?
The most crucial existence governing Heaven’s reincarnation!
After a battle in Ancient Tis, the Nether River mysteriously disappeared.
Originally, supre powerhouses of Heaven Realm, no matter how severely injured, didn’t worry because their strength was enough to preserve their true spirit for reincarnation and re-cultivation.
But since the Nether River’s disappearance, no one has successfully reincarnated.
Even the mighty Tian Zun, after entering reincarnation, was never heard from again.
If the Nether River could return, it would an that supre powerhouses of the Heaven Realm would have another chance, indirectly greatly strengthening Heaven’s top-level combat power!
Any powerhouse above the Heavenly King level, upon hearing this news, would be ecstatic!
