Chapter 1858 Drifting in the Sea of Calamity
Chapter 1858 Drifting in the Sea of Calamity
"This can't go on," Jiao'er transmitted her voice, a trickle of blood already seeping from the corner of her mouth.
After continuously resisting the erosion of her inner demons, her Ice Soul Ferry has suffered Dao injuries.
"Our consumption far exceeds our recovery, yet it grows stronger with each battle. It can only hold out for three more days at most before we are doomed to defeat."
Zhang Xuan's gaze fell upon the terrifying area known as the Great Dao Graveyard.
It is the Sea of Tribulation, which is connected to the Heavenly Dragon Organ Secret Realm!
"Madam, do you dare to take a gamble?" Zhang Xuan asked in a deep voice.
Jiao'er followed his gaze and instantly understood what he meant: "The Sea of Calamity... that is a forbidden land where even Taiyi can get lost."
“But it’s also the only place where we might get rid of this monster.” Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth and said, “The Great Dao is chaotic and spacetime is distorted in the Sea of Tribulation. Although this monster is powerful, once it enters the Sea of Tribulation, it can no longer devour and recover as recklessly as it can outside.”
After a moment's thought, a resolute glint flashed in Jiao'er's eyes: "Alright, rather than be caught and devoured by it, we'd rather enter the Tribulation Sea and try our luck!"
Without further hesitation, the two changed direction and rushed towards the boundless sea of calamity.
The Nine-Eyed Devouring Beast seemed to have sensed their intentions and let out an angry roar.
The nine beams of inner demon light merged into one, transforming into a nine-colored spiral beam of light that blasted towards the two of them!
This attack contained all the power it could muster at that moment, determined to leave the two of them behind!
"Time and space imprisonment!"
Without hesitation, Zhang Xuan crushed a corner of the crystallized origin of spacetime.
A powerful force of spacetime erupted, creating a distorted spacetime behind the two.
Although the nine-colored spiral beam of light was still unstoppable, its speed was greatly slowed down.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Xuan and Jiao'er rushed into that sea of tribulation.
The moment Zhang Xuan entered the Sea of Tribulation, he understood why this place was called the Graveyard of the Great Dao.
confusion!
Utter chaos!
The first thing one senses is the brokenness and disorder of the great principles.
Outside, Golden Immortals can clearly perceive and mobilize the various Great Laws of Heaven and Earth.
But here, all the roads are broken.
The Great Way of Fire may contain the attribute of ice and cold, and the Great Way of Water may contain the true meaning of annihilation. Space is no longer continuous, but like a shattered mirror.
Zhang Xuan attempted to operate his Chaos Ferry, only to discover that the sixteen Great Dao rules within the ferry had become distorted.
“My Ice Soul Path… is being eroded.” Jiao’er’s face was grim.
She sensed that her Ice Soul Daoist essence was spontaneously mutating in this chaotic environment, and even beginning to operate in reverse.
The Sea of Calamity is like a never-ending mixer of the Great Dao.
All the Great Dao rules that enter it will be forcibly disrupted and mutated, eventually losing their original form and becoming part of the chaos of the Sea of Calamity.
"Hold fast to your Dao heart, Ferry's inner strength!" Zhang Xuan shouted, shrinking Ferry's true form to its limit, protecting only a three-foot radius around the two of them.
Within this range, he can barely maintain the purity of his own Dao.
But the cost is enormous.
Every moment, he needs to use the power of the ferry to fight against the erosion of external rules.
Jiao'er also concealed the Ice Soul Ferry within her.
Divine senses are almost ineffective here; one can only rely on sight.
Looking around, all that could be seen was a chaotic expanse of color.
Occasionally, you can see something drifting through the chaos.
It could be an iceberg burning with black flames, or a cloud flowing with molten metal, or...
A mountain peak where stars revolve within.
There were even enormous corpses.
They didn't rot; instead, they were preserved in some kind of solidified amber...
There is no up, down, left, or right here; no past or future; only eternal chaos.
"That demon... doesn't seem to have followed us in?" Jiao'er sensed the area behind her.
Zhang Xuan also breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems to be wary of the Sea of Calamity. After all, it has been suppressed for countless epochs and its condition is not good. Entering this environment will greatly reduce its recovery speed, and it may even be eroded by the rules of the Sea of Calamity."
But before the two could even feel relieved, a new danger descended.
"Watch out on the left!" Jiao'er suddenly warned.
Zhang Xuan turned his head and saw a calm, chaotic area suddenly churning, from which an indescribable turbulent current burst forth.
That's not energy turbulence, nor spatial turbulence, but the turbulence of the Great Dao!
Countless shattered fragments of the Great Dao's rules swept in like a tsunami.
These fragments of rules collide with each other, unleashing all sorts of bizarre effects.
A fragment of the rule of fire collided with a fragment of the rule of ice, freezing and burning the space in their path, creating a fragile, glassy state.
A fragment of gravity rules intertwined with a fragment of spatial rules, creating a gravitational vortex that pulled and tore apart everything nearby.
Even more terrifying is that some fragments of the rules still retain the resentment of ancient beings who perished at the time of their deaths.
Once tainted, it will trigger inner demons and corrupt the foundation of one's spiritual path...
"We can't avoid it, the area is too large!" Zhang Xuan's expression was solemn.
This turbulent avenue is boundless and moves at an extremely fast speed; in their current state, they have no chance of escaping its reach.
"We have no choice but to tough it out!" Jiao'er gritted her teeth, and the Ice Soul Ferry expanded again, forming a thick, extremely cold Dao Domain around the two of them.
Zhang Xuan also unfolded the Chaos Ferry, with sixteen Great Daos rotating, attempting to transform and absorb the incoming fragments of rules.
"boom--"
The turbulence crashed into their defenses.
In an instant, Zhang Xuan felt as if he had been thrown into a high-speed spinning drum.
Countless chaotic rules were impacting his ferry.
Although his Chaos Dao is adept at transforming all laws, the fragments of the Dao here are too chaotic.
"Hiss hiss hiss—"
Cracks began to appear on the surface of the ferry.
"My lord, my Ice Soul Dao Domain is melting!" Jiao'er exclaimed in surprise.
Her extreme cold Dao Domain was also severely eroded.
A ruthless glint flashed in Zhang Xuan's eyes as he took out the ninth-order Creation Seed.
"Since the rules are chaotic, let's use the power of creation to forcibly reshape a pure land!"
He pressed the ninth-order Creation Seed to his chest, and the boundless vitality of creation instantly surged into his body, then spread out through the ferry.
Creation is the power of creation and evolution.
In this chaotic graveyard of the Great Dao, the power of creation, like a stabilizing force, began to carve out a relatively orderly area around the two of them.
After the chaotic fragments of rules entered this area, they were guided and organized by the power of creation. Although they could not be completely restored to normal, they were at least no longer so aggressive.
The turbulent currents of the Great Path swept past the two of them, but did not cause any fatal damage.
But the price was that the brilliance of the life-creating seed visibly dimmed.
"This is too much of a drain," Jiao'er said with heartache. "The ninth-order Creation Seed is forcibly creating order in this sea of tribulation, and its consumption rate is more than a hundred times that of the outside world. It can only withstand three more of these impacts at most before it exhausts its source."
Zhang Xuan's expression was also not good.
How long have we been in the Sea of Calamity? And yet we've already encountered such a crisis.
And ahead, who knows how many dangers await them.
