Chapter 1649: Under High Pressure

Man Shu and Qiong Qi acted together. Man Shu directly sent the Ice Power into Xuecheng for storage.

Qiong Qi likewise kept in step, using the Broken Copper Cauldron to absorb the Fire Flame Power.

Ye Liuyun, watching the commotion, asked, "Your Broken Copper Cauldron can hold quite a bit! This Fire Flame Power won't be sucked up by that fire phoenix, will it?"

Qiong Qi laughed, "Of course. This broken cauldron contains the universe within! As for the fire phoenix, it was refined to death long ago; now it's just a ball of flame!"

After that, he gave the stone Kuailei back to Ye Liuyun.

"Consider it a bargain! This Kuailei has been upgraded! Input a strand of Divine Sense and you can use it."

Ye Liuyun input the Divine Sense, not paying much attention, intending to store it directly.

Unexpectedly, the Kuailei's realm had already risen to the Tianzun Seventh Layer.

"This realm…" Ye Liuyun said, looking at Qiong Qi in surprise.

Qiong Qi explained to Ye Liuyun, "It's the result of Ice Power and Fire Flame Power working together. It can now use both Ice Power and Fire Flame Power to attack."

Ye Liuyun immediately fetched two long spears of the corresponding attributes and gave them to the Kuailei.

Now Ye Liuyun has a Skeleton Puppet of Tian Zun Yi Chong and a stone Kuailei of Tianzun Seventh Layer at his disposal.

Qiong Qi told Ye Liuyun, "You can take this stone Kuailei and that Skeleton Puppet to the Divine Realm as two servants. The other puppets aren't useful; their materials aren't good, so you don't need to bring them."

Obviously, he also knew Ye Liuyun's departure from the Divine Realm wasn't far off.

Seizing the chance, Ye Liuyun asked, "Give me a detailed rundown of the Divine Realm, including how realms are classified. At least the basics I need to know, right?"

Qiong Qi replied, "Alright! This time we'll go back together, and I'll tell you! I'm still waiting to borrow your light to go to the Divine Realm, so hurry and cultivate!" After speaking, he drove Ye Liuyun away.

"Fine, you get busy first!"

Ye Liuyun stopped bothering Qiong Qi and slipped into the void, practicing Spatial Power.

He wanted to test his Spatial Power to see if it could be further increased.

Entering the ninth layer of the void, Ye Liuyun thought of Flame Lion and felt somewhat regretful.

Now no one guides him in cultivating Spatial Power. He still doesn't know what lies beyond the ninth layer of the void.

Although Flame Lion hasn't cultivated to any level, it should be close.

According to its earlier words, it has already found the next layer's spatial barrier.

Soon after entering the ninth layer of space, Ye Liuyun emerged to catch his breath.

He can now stay in the ninth layer of the void for a long time, but still can't remain there continuously; Spatial Power always pushes him out.

After resting, Ye Liuyun thought, "What if I push a bit more? Give myself some pressure and try."

Thinking that, he re‑entered the ninth layer of the void, ready to tough it out and test.

This time, when Ye Liuyun felt pressure beginning to push him outward, he released his Spatial Power to resist.

When his Spatial Power could no longer sustain, he didn't exit immediately but activated Mysterious Origin protection, continuing to resist the spatial pressure.

He immediately felt as if he were being squeezed within the Mysterious Origin, even breathing became laborious.

He held his breath and again unleashed Fire Flame Power and Ice Power to clash with the Spatial Power.

As the Spatial Power grew stronger, he also released Buddha Demon Power.

He even employed Domain Power. Three Guardian God Seals surrounded him, creating a safe space.

But soon, the three Guardian God Seals could no longer hold; the Spatial Power was about to deform them.

Ye Liuyun hurriedly retracted the Guardian God Seals, fearing they would vanish completely.

But once the seals were withdrawn, the suddenly increased pressure squeezed Ye Liuyun, making his bones crack loudly.

Ye Liuyun was now immobile; all his power was unleashed, straining with full force.

"Crack crack crack," the faint sound of bones fracturing came, and even as Ye Liuyun gritted his teeth, the pain of his whole skeleton cracking made him suffer immensely.

The Ten Thousand Gods Command began to emit its radiance, keeping him conscious.

"Hold on a little longer!" Ye Liuyun urged himself.

He kept daydreaming, "Maybe the pressure in the Divine Realm is similar; I'll consider this early adaptation!"

But then his body began to be deformed by the squeeze, his bones being pressed inward.

The "crack" sound grew louder; bones were already starting to shatter.

"Ah!"

Ye Liuyun gritted his teeth and let out a wail, daring not to stay any longer, withdrawing from the ninth layer of the void.

When he reappeared, he went "bang", falling heavily to the ground, his body limp, lying there groaning in pain.

Qiong Qi and the others were startled. Several women rushed over to ask about his condition.

"Don't touch me! I'm fine, just cultivating Spatial Power!" Ye Liuyun said, biting his teeth, enduring the pain while recovering and explaining to others.

Qiong Qi, still unmoved, joked, "If you had been this desperate to cultivate earlier, you'd have reached the divine realm by now!"

Ye Liuyun, too lazy to reply, waited until his skeleton fully recovered before crawling up from the ground.

But once he stood, he found his physical body had become stronger.

This time many of his bones had been crushed; after recovery, they were even sturdier.

"Fine then. Even if I can't master Spatial Power, I can still train my physical body!"

Ye Liuyun weighed the pros and cons and decided to rest well before trying again. He thought that without being harsher on himself, his realm would still advance too slowly.

He immediately returned to the Space World and soaked in Life Spring Water for a while.

Then he went back into the Xuan Kong Shi to cultivate.

He suddenly realized his Golden Crow Holy Fire, Ice Power, and Buddha Demon Power had been compressed considerably, becoming more refined.

Moreover, his Mysterious Origin mass had increased, as if he had just cultivated for a long time.

"So many benefits!"

Thinking of this, Ye Liuyun resolved to train many more times. Recalling the whole‑body bone‑crushing pain, he felt he could endure it.

After Ye Liuyun finished cultivating, he also called forth his clone, letting him go together into the void to cultivate and improve.

Upon re-entering the ninth layer of the void, Ye Liuyun this time did not unleash the Guardian God Seal, but instead endured bit by bit until his bones were again crushed by pressure, after which he and his clone fell one after another from the void.

After emerging, both lay motionless on the ground, gritting their teeth and enduring.

However, what pleased them was that Ye Liuyun discovered he had spent considerably longer in the void this time than before.

Everyone now knew they were cultivating, and no longer bothered them.
