Chapter 2237

After all, they still had to move as a team for now.

The female lords all had outfits, and their current movement speed was already very fast, so once they set out they would definitely wait to some extent for the other male lords.

There was no need to waste spiritual power boosting their movement speed any further.

【Guan Zhiyong】:

【Alright, we're setting out】

【Say it once more — keep up!】

【No noise, no unnecessary moves】

【Move out!】

Boom!

Crack!!!

The enormous rift that pierced through heaven and earth before them split open in an instant.

It had originally been a single black fissure.

Now it rapidly parted to either side, like a colossal black vertical eye opening!

The situation on the other side could not be seen.

Only endless black could be seen.

It was pure darkness.

Guan Zhiyong led the way at the very front.

Beside him was Lu Yibing.

The far left of the formation was Gu Zhan, the far right was Li Yanhui.

Jiang Chen brought up the rear at the very back.

Li Ruanyu was in the formation, leading the Jade Squad.

The other squad captains were also in the formation, each leading their own team.

The formation began to advance.

A very faint hubbub rose from within the crowd.

It sounded like footsteps, but the sound was very small now, more like dust landing, fine sand rubbing.

The pace of advance was very fast.

The entire formation had no acceleration phase — it went straight into high-speed movement from the start.

Zhao Chi was inwardly surprised, but he could still follow the figure ahead with effortless ease.

With so many boosts now, there was no need to exert himself at all — he could keep up easily.

The surrounding grass and trees swept past rapidly at his side.

The lords' translucent feet kept treading the green grass on the ground.

But the grass was not crushed in the slightest, merely swaying ceaselessly, like breezes drifting past one after another.

Su Qin reached out to pull Zhao Chi.

The result was a clean miss — her translucent arm passed straight through Zhao Chi's body.

Zhao Chi opened the system.

He sent Su Qin a text message:

【Just keep close to me, we'll move a bit faster and catch up with Ruanyu】

Su Qin 【Okay】

Both of them had very high Agility stats, and they passed through the translucent bodies of the lords ahead with ease, arriving behind Li Ruanyu.

Li Ruanyu looked back.

She gave Zhao Chi and Su Qin a faint smile, then turned her head back to continue leading the team.

That smile was very faint.

Like a beautiful phantom.

The distance to the rift grew shorter and shorter.

The entire sky ahead was covered in black.

The scene was very eerie.

Both the sky and the ground directly ahead were completely pure black.

Like a colossal spindle-shaped black hole standing before them.

Boundless, bottomless.

But the two sides were perfectly normal.

Blue sky, white clouds, birdsong and fragrant flowers.

The contrast was extremely stark.

If Zhao Chi hadn't been inside once before, he really would have felt fear.

Su Qin possessed Fearless — otherwise she might have been afraid.

But at this moment, she was merely looking around curiously.

The formation continued to advance rapidly.

The distance grew shorter still.

The enormous rift had just been ahead a moment ago, but now it had already begun to encroach on the left and right sides.

The entire front half was nothing but black.

The bright morning light shone from behind, yet it was completely unable to illuminate the black ahead.

Looking up, the blackness stretched straight up to the horizon, with no edge in sight.

Looking down, the grass beneath his feet was gone; he was now standing on the same boundless black.

Now… it seemed he was already within the gaps of the blackness.

He couldn't make out the expressions of the surrounding lords, but through those semi-transparent outlines and contours, he could still tell that most of them were feeling fear.

After all, most of the lords had never entered a spatial rift before.

The black kept growing.

But as it increased, the black was no longer so pure.

It seemed to slowly turn into a deep grey.

The procession continued forward.

New changes gradually appeared before his eyes.

A grey space appeared ahead.

It was as if all color had been completely drained away, leaving only black, white, and grey.

The light was very dim.

Everything everywhere was hazy and indistinct.

The sky was very low, covered with vast expanses of grey clouds above.

The ground, meanwhile, was uneven black soil.

But Zhao Chi remembered the soil was supposed to be brown.

When he had been following the merchant caravan earlier, he would have already used a Spirit Light technique to illuminate the surroundings by now.

But he definitely couldn't do that now.

Using a Spirit Light technique to illuminate the surroundings — wouldn't that be plainly telling the werewolves that something was going on over here?

However… there was nothing around at all.

All his eyes could see was the dim grey.

Dark grey clouds.

A dim space.

Uneven black earth.

Apart from this, there was nothing.

He looked back.

There was a white rift cutting through heaven and earth.

A dozen seconds ago, he could still see the blue sky and green grass within the rift.

But now, only pure white remained.
