Chapter 1394

In the void world, even the perception of time is faint; if not for the game's built‑in time display, one would not know how long one has been inside.

Xiao Feng and Xun Shuang Xianzi stood back‑to‑back, drifting aimlessly together in the void.

The power of the void turbulence is great, but for them it remains within tolerable limits, not life‑threatening.

Xun Shuang Xianzi occasionally struck out, hoping to shatter the void and find an exit.

But in the void world, trying to break the outer wall is far harder than in Kyushu; even with her current strength, she cannot manage it.

Xiao Feng also tried, drawing his sword and releasing the Secret Art "Shatter Void" again, but the result was the same—he could not even produce a crack.

"How much longer must we drift here?" he said with a headache.

Xun Shuang Xianzi remained calm: "Short term, a moment; long term, three or five hundred years—if one's cultivation is insufficient, one can only wait."

Three or five hundred years…

"That's too long—I still need to log off to have dinner with my girlfriends." Xiao Feng felt miserable.

Upon hearing that "men" (plural), Xun Shuang Xianzi said in a disdainful tone: "Then go; I'll find the exit myself."

"No! I was joking—two people can at least talk; if one were truly alone in this lightless, directionless place, one would surely go mad." Xiao Feng quickly apologized.

If he logged off now, upon returning he would no longer meet Xun Shuang Xianzi; they could only drift separately in the void world.

Although they might wander here for a long time, his Li Ti is already transcendent, so going without food for a long time is fine.

He only fears that Jiang Ning and the others will worry and wake him.

"Uh… speak of the devil."

Hardly had he thought of the worry when he sensed that his real body seemed to have been moved by someone.

He guarded his mind, focusing all his mental will on the game world, absolutely refusing to log off!

The sensation from his Li Ti transmitted to his brain, and his mind could perceive it.

However, this touch felt somewhat different from being "woken up."

Xiao Feng felt as if the air‑conditioning on his body had been lifted open.

Then someone pressed down on him.

"Emmm…"

He instantly realized that the person in the room wasn't trying to wake him, but had come to borrow something from him.

This had happened before; at that time he was cultivating, felt rather special, deliberately stayed online to experience it.

And he actually managed to persist.

One minute offline, ten minutes online—the change in perception is very gradual.

While cultivating or gaining Enlightenment, time flies; there's no special feeling, and three or four hours pass in a blink.

But now it's…

Fortunately, the extended time ratio also brings a kind of "perception weakening," as if every action were slowed tenfold, so it won't be too intense.

"What's wrong with you?"

Xun Shuang Xianzi noticed that Xiao Feng's aura had suddenly become a bit disordered, and thought he had been injured by the void turbulence.

Xiao Feng tugged at his waistband, his expression unchanged, and replied: "No problem, the issue… isn't big!"

"You…"

Xun Shuang Xianzi furrowed her brows slightly, clearly sensing his abnormality.

But since he said it was fine, probably not a big deal, she didn't bother him.

"Shush-shush-shush"

The void turbulence appeared again, and the two continued to guard against it, protecting their safety.

Xiao Feng noticed his breathing was a bit irregular, so he simply held his breath to avoid letting the fairy maiden behind him see his oddness.

The void grew calm for a while.

After a while, Xiao Feng suddenly let out a loud "Ah!"

"What on earth is wrong with you?" Xun Shuang Xianzi said with a hint of displeasure.

"It's fine, fine… the true body in another world is under attack. Hiss… so strong! Looks like more than one person!" Xiao Feng spoke in a tone as if he were in danger, looking very serious.

Not knowing the truth, Xun Shuang Xianzi thought he really was in danger and hurriedly said: "You'd better go check; don't fall. I'll try to stay put and wait for your return."

Xiao Feng quickly shook his head: "No need, no need—my Li Ti is formidable; I won't die. They'll leave on their own after a while. Huff, so tight… Zhang ah."

"You… really okay?" Xun Shuang Xianzi expressed doubt.

Xiao Feng affirmed: "Absolutely safe!"

Actually, at times like this he also really wanted to log off.

But the void world is truly too quiet, eerily silent. To have someone to talk to during this drift of unknown length, he had to endure.

Within the game, two or three hours, he could still bear it.

But… he seems to have misjudged the duration of this "trial."

Last time during the "trial," it was Xu Xiaonian alone; in‑game it lasted over three hours, while offline it ended in about twenty minutes.

But this time she found help!

One hour passed, two hours passed…

In the blink of an eye, five hours had passed, and Xiao Feng was still suffering.

Xun Shuang Xianzi advised him several times; seeing he wouldn't listen, she simply ignored him.

Xiao Feng from time to time let out a couple of "Ah!" sounds, as if he were being beaten painfully, yet he wouldn't die.

The two drifted in the void; void turbulence appeared intermittently, sometimes attacking them for over ten minutes at a time, leaving both somewhat fatigued.

Xiao Feng suffered attacks both online and offline; that feeling was quite peculiar, as if half of him were in heaven and half in hell.

Finally…

After 2 days of game time, the battle ended.

Xiao Feng let out a long sigh and said, "It's safe."

Xun Shuang Xianzi couldn't help but say, "Your Li Ti is really strong; being beaten by people for two days didn't hurt you."

"Uh... yes, it's a bit strong." Xiao Feng replied, not losing his embarrassment.

After drifting for two days, they still hadn't found a place to escape the void world.

Void turbulence would occasionally visit; sometimes they'd encounter even stronger void gales, which could shatter many layers of earthen shields in an instant, wounding Xiao Feng.

Moreover, the frequency of attacks increased; initially it was once every ten or so minutes, then gradually became once every two or three minutes.

"Something's wrong; we seem to be heading toward the direction of the void storm." Xun Shuang Xianzi said, somewhat uneasy.

"What is a void storm?" Xiao Feng asked her.

She explained: "It is a huge void turbulence that runs through multiple worlds. Some ancient worlds, when their lifespan reaches the limit, slowly collapse; due to the vastness of the domain, it causes the entire cosmic void to rupture and collapse inward. At the breach, a huge void storm appears; even a Golden Immortal encountering it would be quite troubled."

"World collapse... there's such a thing!"

Xiao Feng, hearing this setting for the first time, felt very surprised.

Xun Shuang Xianzi also said: "Although the void storm is dangerous, it's also an opportunity; perhaps we can find a breach to escape the void storm. Guard yourself, we'll continue forward!"

The place where space collapses is the entrance to the void world.

Conversely, the place where the void collapses is also the entrance to world space; they are opposites!

Xiao Feng, hearing this, felt it made sense, prepared his defenses, and together with Xun Shuang Xianzi, actively went upstream against the direction of the incoming turbulence.

The higher they went, the fiercer the void turbulence became, and void gales occasionally appeared, bringing terrifying lethal force.

After two hours, void turbulence was everywhere around them; there was not a moment of safety!

"We should be there soon; just hold on a little longer!"

Xun Shuang Xianzi, with keen perception, sensed the aura of the material world and sped up.

The two were preparing to charge into the most violent part of the void turbulence to search for a breach.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, a terrifying aura suddenly came!

"Living beings... hehe... eat..."

A somewhat simple-minded yet ferocious thought wave transmitted into both of their seas of consciousness.

The originally lightless void world seemed to "brighten" up, and an outline of a pair of eyes appeared!

"Oh no, it's a void giant beast!"
