Chapter 3249: Splitting the Void

The Fire Seal Dynasty indeed has deep reserves. Just these ten sword cultivators, I couldn't produce them!

Ye Liuyun, upon seeing these sword cultivators, couldn't help but envy the Fire Seal Dynasty's strength.

Among his current black-armored elite troops, although there are many Ninth Layer Summit experts, they lack sword cultivators with such strong sword intent.

Among those around him, only Ye Tiandao's blade intent surpasses these people. Feng Wanru's sword intent and A Xing's blade intent are also inferior to these ten sword cultivators.

Just thinking that these people are being sent by the Fire Seal Dynasty into the void, Ye Liuyun feels reluctant for the Fire Seal Dynasty.

At the same time, the five hundred experts previously dispatched by the Fire Seal Dynasty have all gathered in this area, surrounding it three layers inside and three layers outside.

They had also long discovered Ye Liuyun's flying boat, and even guessed it was Ye Liuyun.

With so many experts and such tight defenses, who else besides Ye Liuyun would dare to loiter around them?

They had also considered sending someone to drive him away. But as soon as they moved, Ye Liuyun turned and flew off, never approaching them. In the end, the Fire Seal King saw Ye Liuyun taking no action and saw no sign of an army approaching, so he simply ordered not to bother him.

So at this time, no one approached Ye Liuyun, and he simply stowed his flying boat. Otherwise, looking outward through the flying boat would also affect his vision.

He also released the Xuanwu Beast King, letting it hide and guard him to avoid a sneak attack by the Fire Seal Dynasty.

Seeing Ye Liuyun so far away with no sign of making a move, the Fire Seal Dynasty's martial cultivators obviously just wanted to watch the spectacle, so they also didn't bother to drive him off.

Those martial cultivators continued. The ten sword cultivators formed a circle, while another ten martial cultivators stood inside the circle, each wearing Void-rank protective armor.

"Looks like only these ten people are leaving!" Ye Liuyun saw that the ten sword cultivators wore no protective gear and guessed that only those ten martial cultivators were leaving; the ten sword cultivators were merely seeing them off.

"They aren't planning to use sword intent to directly break open the void, are they?"

Ye Liuyun thought of this, and even he himself found it unbelievable.

He had also encountered the void barrier in this starry sky before, but he still couldn't break it now.

But he estimated that even if he broke it open, there would still be a certain distance to that higher world.

If their physical bodies aren't strong enough, those martial cultivators wouldn't be able to pass through that kind of void to reach that higher world.

He had experienced the gap in physical-body pressure when moving from the Mortal Realm to the Divine Realm. He estimated that reaching that higher world would also involve a not-small gap.

Only now did he realize how great the danger is of splitting the void to send people over. Not to mention sending ten at once; even sending a hundred might not get a single person to that higher world.

He then carefully examined the ten martial cultivators who were ready, and found their physical bodies were indeed quite strong. But he estimated their bodies wouldn't be stronger than his.

"This physical strength probably isn't enough, right?" he doubted in his heart.

However, he currently can't get an answer. Even if these people could survive reaching that higher world, trying to return here would be unlikely without over a decade.

Ye Liuyun speculated in his heart, his Golden Pupil watching those sword cultivators holding long swords, preparing to gather power. Afterwards, the ten sword cultivators simultaneously struck, unleashing their full force toward the center of the circle they formed.

This strike not only used sword intent, but also infused their True Essence, Heaven and Earth Power, and Spatial Power, making it arguably their strongest blow.

The ten martial cultivators inside the circle also had True Essence surging throughout their bodies, preparing to gather power.

With a boom, the full-force attack of the ten Ninth Layer Summit sword-cultivator experts instantly blasted a huge hole in the void. That spatial fluctuation, Ye Liuyun could feel even from far away.

His Golden Pupil also opened fully, looking through the hole, and he instantly saw the void turbulence and black hole within.

"In this situation, the chances of survival for those who enter are even lower!" Ye Liuyun's heart just felt danger, yet the ten martial cultivators who had been ready already shot up into the sky, filing into the hole.

Ye Liuyun personally saw that a martial cultivator charging into the hole happened to be right at a black hole, and was directly swallowed by it. His Void-rank armor was instantly crushed.

He struggled a bit and reached out, hoping a companion would help, but no one paid attention, each guarding against nearby dangers. Even if someone reached out to grab her, such a black hole would likely pull them in together.

Followed

Afterward, that martial cultivator completely disappeared into the black hole.

Then the great void hole blasted by the ten sword cultivators slowly closed up.

Besides feeling regret for that martial cultivator, Ye Liuyun also noticed the speed at which the great void hole closed.

"It closed in just two breaths? The void barrier here recovers so quickly; the power inside must be even more terrifying! Void-rank first-grade armor would surely be useless, and my current physical body couldn't withstand the danger there. If those people lack any special life-saving treasures, they probably can't reach that higher world."

Ye Liuyun shook his head. The Fire Seal Dynasty's artifact-forging level is certainly insufficient to deal with dangers beyond the void. Unless a martial cultivator has great fortune and obtains a special treasure, they couldn't possibly arrive safely.

But after arriving there, they'd just be ordinary martial cultivators; trying to return would also be difficult!

Ye Liuyun was lost in thought about this when suddenly a Divine Sense Transmission Voice came to him: "There's no way; although the hope is slim, it's still better than no hope!"

Ye Liuyun's heart startled, he followed the direction of the Divine Sense transmission and saw behind him in the starry sky a middle-aged martial cultivator whose entire body emanated Heaven and Earth Power, allowing him to blend into this heaven and earth.

That aura made Ye Liuyun feel this person was not simple. He used his Golden Pupil to look at the martial cultivator, but the Heaven and Earth Power surrounding him blocked his Golden Pupil's sight.

The aura about him made Ye Liuyun feel this person was not ordinary; he used his Golden Pupil to look at the Martial Cultivator, but the Heaven and Earth Power surrounding him blocked his Golden Pupil's gaze.

Although Ye Liuyun hadn't seen this person's realm, just from that powerful Heaven and Earth Power surrounding him, he knew he wasn't a match for this person!

He secretly reminded the Xuanwu Beast King to stay alert, while using Divine Sense to transmit sound to that person.

The distance between that person and him made sending a Divine Sense transmission somewhat strained, but the middle-aged man remained expressionless.

"This person's Divine Soul Power is stronger than mine!"

Ye Liuyun was even more astonished. This middle-aged person is the strongest martial cultivator he has ever seen.

"Who are you, senior?" Ye Liuyun directly asked the middle-aged man.

The man didn't rush to answer Ye Liuyun's question, instead chatting: "All martial cultivators of the Fire Seal Dynasty are limited by their True Essence Quality, preventing them from breaking through to the Taixu realm. Using the method of breaking open the void serves more to stabilize morale, giving those martial cultivator experts a hope."

That man, however, did not rush to answer Ye Liuyun's question; instead, he started chatting with him: "All Martial Cultivators of the Fire Seal Dynasty are limited by True Essence Quality, which prevents them from breaking through to the Taixu realm. Using the method of breaking open the void, the purpose is more to steady people's hearts, giving those powerful Martial Cultivators merely a hope."
