Chapter 225: Mind Entering the Void

"Someone from the Ma Family?"

Meng Lingyun's expression changed abruptly.

"Oh no, it's Suxuan, she's run into trouble!"

"Suxuan?"

Lie Dangkong was somewhat surprised upon hearing this, "It seems you know each other."

"However, there is no need to worry; I have already locked onto the coordinates there." As he spoke, he waved his large hand, directly tearing open the Void and evolving a spatial passage.

"Let's go, this will be faster."

Since that person from the Ma Family was one of their own, Lie Dangkong was naturally very concerned and was the first to step into the spatial passage. Xuan Dao, Meng Lingyun, and the others immediately followed behind.

Li Heng rode on the green ox, feeling somewhat emotional.

Although his current combat power could allow him to fight against a Dharma Aspect, he could not yet do what Lie Dangkong did—casually construct a spatial passage for everyone to teleport through.

It seems he must seize the time to cultivate.

He looked around again, confirmed once more that there were no omissions in his arrangements, and also stepped into the spatial passage.

To the northeast, where Ma Suxuan was located.

This was a county town.

It was a pity that she had arrived a bit too late; the spatial tremors had already destroyed half the city. If she had arrived even a step later, it was feared the entire city would have been wiped out.

Cries and wails were boiling over.

The disaster had come too suddenly; without the slightest warning, it had erased half the city and taken the lives of half its people. In this Calamity, there were not even corpses strewn across the fields or rivers of blood; with one shake of space, these people died, and their bodies could not even remain.

The cruelty of this Calamity.

It was not a massacre. It was merely destroying you; what does it have to do with you?

Ma Suxuan gritted her teeth, releasing her Yang Extreme True Flame and her Innate Power, trying her best to maintain the intensity of the spatial tremors and keep the still-vibrating space calm.

After all, she was not a Second Heaven Peak like Xuan Dao, nor did she have a Dharma Aspect like Li Heng, who had "hacked" his way to possessing one.

Even though she had received the gift of Li Heng's Fire Seed and had gained much insight, her own combat power was only at the Strong Second Heaven Peak; she was still unable to cope with such a natural disaster.

Now, she finally knew how powerful Li Heng was.

She was exhausted to the point of death and still could not suppress these spatial tremors. Yet Li Heng could easily suppress them, and he could suppress them firmly, without the tiny fluctuations that appeared now.

Time passed.

A look of joy appeared in Ma Suxuan's eyes; she could feel the intensity of the spatial tremors decreasing—it was clearly subsiding. It seemed that as long as she persisted a little longer, she would be able to resolve these spatial tremors.

For a moment, her self-confidence greatly increased.

After all, she was not useless and could still hold on.

What truly worried her was Meng Lingyun's side.

After all, she knew that Meng Lingyun had just advanced to the Second Heaven realm, his strength was still relatively weak, and he was not familiar with the many methods of the Second Heaven realm. If he were to suppress the spatial tremors alone, he would definitely suffer a great loss.

However, she could not get away right now.

She could only hope that the tremors on Ling Yun's side were smaller.

Once I finish resolving these spatial tremors, I must... Ma Suxuan's mind wandered, using this to divert the pressure the spatial tremors were putting on her, completely unaware of what kind of flag she had just planted.

And so, an accident occurred.

The spatial tremors, which had been gradually subsiding, suddenly launched a counterattack; the intensity surged violently, jumping from the level of a small tremor or aftershock to a major tremor.

The terrifying power of the spatial tremors directly broke through Ma Suxuan's suppression, extinguishing her Yang Extreme True Flame; everything around her began to become chaotic, as if the surface of water were trembling.

Pfft!

Ma Suxuan spat out a mouthful of blood.

She was backlashed by the suddenly surging power of the spatial tremors and was not lightly injured. But she had no time to think; ignoring the consumption of her origin, she directly erupted with twelve percent of her power.

If she let the spatial tremors continue.

The half of the city's populace that had survived would also die!

Who told this city to be so unlucky? It had to run into spatial tremors, and the "eyes" of the spatial tremors were so peculiar—they didn't go to shake so many desolate mountains and wild ridges, but insisted on shaking a human city.

More importantly, she, Ma Suxuan, was also unlucky.

She had just separated from the others when she ran into this.

Well, there was no other way; she could only try her best to risk her life.

If she fled, the hundred-plus thousand people in the city would all die.

However, no matter how determined Ma Suxuan was, the objective environment would never change because of a weak subjective will. The spatial tremors were right there, and the intensity of the tremors was also right there.

Ma Suxuan's rope was too thin and too small.

The "beast" of the spatial tremors directly broke free from Ma Suxuan's rope, howling in all directions, and began to "bare its fangs and brandish its claws" at this human city, lunging directly at it.

At this moment, a spatial passage appeared.

Lie Dangkong was the first to arrive.

He frowned, waved his large hand, and his own Dharma Aspect emerged with a boom, blooming with immeasurable light, illuminating the entire city, and using the might of the Great Sun to suppress the spatial tremors, instantly pressing this "beast" back.

Ma Suxuan had been feeling a bit desperate just a moment ago.

But seeing Lie Dangkong appear and take action, she was stunned.

Who was this? Why didn't she recognize him?

However, since he had taken the initiative to suppress the spatial tremors, he must be a friend, not an enemy. "Cough, cough, cough, this junior Ma Suxuan greets the senior, and thanks the senior for taking action to suppress this Disaster and save the people from fire and water."

"So it's just a little girl, I see."

Lie Dangkong was also somewhat surprised to see this, but thinking of Meng Lingyun's extremely anxious words from before, he could immediately guess the gist of it.

"You Ma Family girl are quite reckless; how could this level of spatial tremors be something your cultivation can suppress? If it had lasted any longer, it wouldn't just be internal injuries—you would have lost half your life."

Lie Dangkong evaluated her thus, watching Ma Suxuan cough incessantly, even coughing up blood, and did not approve of Ma Suxuan's actions.

"Senior, you laugh at me, but I have no other choice."

"This junior can still hold on for a while; I won't die. I can't just abandon the people of half this Town because I'm injured, can I?"

Ma Suxuan replied with difficulty.

She generally cherished her life, especially after rekindling her relationship with Meng Lingyun; she was loath to die. If she died early, and this guy happened to get together with some other woman...

Thinking of such a scene, she would be so angry she'd jump right out of her coffin.

She couldn't let other women benefit from that.

She absolutely could not die!

What she had just protected was the people of half the Town, over a hundred thousand living souls; they were not just numbers. Therefore, unless it was an absolute last resort, she would not retreat, nor could she retreat.

But once it reached the absolute last resort...

Ma Suxuan fell into deep thought, discovering she could not make a decision.

Lie Dangkong did not pay attention to Ma Suxuan's words; after all, to an old man of his age, this was just the stubbornness of a child, and there was no need to dwell on it too much.

What truly concerned him was this spatial vibration.

He could feel that the spatial vibration here was different from the first type he had seen, or the second type that Li Heng had suppressed; it was a type more threatening than those two.

If the spatial vibration suppressed by Li Heng was a ferocious giant beast that could spread across the entire plain, then ultimately, that giant beast's power was still limited and would not vibrate forever.

But this spatial vibration gave him the feeling of a hyperactive child with infinite energy, an endless ocean wave, one wave higher than the last, one wave stronger than the last.

The intensity of the vibration at this moment.

Was even faintly shaking the power of his Dharma Aspect!

Just then, Xuan Dao, Meng Lingyun and the others, as well as Li Heng, had also leisurely arrived. He ignored Meng Lingyun's young-person business of fussing over Ma Suxuan and hurriedly called out to Li Heng.

"Do you feel it? This vibration is not simple."

He tilted his head to look at Li Heng, his expression grave.

Li Heng nodded.

"It is simply endless. It is as if the reaction causing the spatial vibration is still continuing without end, continuously providing new power for the spatial vibration."

He did not need Xuan Dao to remind him.

As soon as he arrived, he had already opened his mind to sense the spatial vibration here and discovered its essence.

"That's right, this will be very troublesome."

Lie Dangkong nodded.

Even though he had already advanced to the Dharma Aspect Realm and was a powerful expert of the Dharma Aspect Realm, capable of interfering with the Heaven and Earth Principles with ease, he still did not underestimate these spatial vibrations; this was the power of Heaven and Earth, not to be taken lightly.

Although tearing through the Void was usually as easy as reaching into a bag.

He was also very clear that this was because the Void was usually very calm, like the surface of a mirror-still lake; a gentle flick of the palm could make it undergo various changes, making it an excellent tool.

But what if the water surface was not calm, but a monstrous tsunami?

Even a Dharma Aspect like his might end up crashing here.

As long as the dosage was large enough, the equivalent high enough, and the intensity high enough, this spatial vibration would sooner or later break through his Dharma Aspect power, and might even backfire on him, perhaps even suppressing him to death.

Of course, if the intensity could really reach that level.

I fear the entire Beijun would have to shake a few times.

"I suspect this phenomenon hides the truth of the spatial vibration."

Li Heng suddenly spoke again.

"How about this, Senior Lie, you help me suppress it for a while. I intend to split off a portion of my consciousness to go into the Void myself and see exactly what kind of thing it is, what is causing the vibration."

"Are you sure about this?" Lie Dangkong frowned upon hearing this.

It would be fine if it were the ordinary Void.

But now, such intense spatial vibration might also mean that Void Turbulence exists within the Void. And Void Turbulence is not something to be trifled with.

Even the physical body is difficult to deal with, let alone consciousness.

"I never do things I am not sure about."

Li Heng smiled faintly and did not pay much more attention to Lie Dangkong.

If he kept nagging like this, he would very likely miss the perfect observation window. He directly split off his consciousness and followed the rift created by the spatial vibration, diving into the Void.

Instantly, he felt a "great wind" blowing toward him.

This "great wind" almost caused his consciousness to collapse.

He summoned his Great Sun Dharma Image to suppress his consciousness, illuminating the surrounding Void, and immediately knew the truth of this "great wind"—there actually was Void Turbulence; fortunately, he had been prepared.

This was Void Turbulence blowing from a distant place toward an Unknown distance, and Li Heng's consciousness was currently in this turbulence. But with the Great Sun Dharma Image, he was like a reef in a river, standing firm and unmoved.

However, he did not pay much attention to it.

Spatial vibrations triggering Void Turbulence was a high-probability event.

It was not worth making a fuss about.

He looked around the Void, wanting to see exactly what kind of thing, what reason, was causing such a continuous spatial vibration.

In an instant, his pupils constricted.

He had already seen something.
