Chapter 1879: Despair Formation

After saying that, he removed the arena's field and opened a void gate.

Xiao Feng said, "I understand, thank you, senior. Xiao Feng takes his leave!"

Immediately, he rode the celestial crane into the teleportation array and vanished on Welcoming Guest Star.

The ancestral gods and god kings watched his figure disappear, filled with myriad emotions.

This human is truly terrifying; just now he didn't exert his full strength at all.

Ah, I somewhat understand what the ancestor said; those who can kill a venerable one truly cannot be judged by realm.

He has at least two supreme treasures on him! Our Ghost Fish Clan adventurers are far, far behind him.

The strong ones discussed heatedly.

Golden Dragon said to Mo Long Lao Zu, "Ancestor, just letting him go to Blackwater River—will that cause any trouble?"

Mo Long Lao Zu said, "Otherwise, what do you think should be done?"

Golden Dragon replied, "His relationship with that woman is definitely not simple; if he can't pay the compensation and tries to forcibly take her away, conflict is inevitable."

Red Dragon said, "Junior brother, you must know: adventurers cannot be killed. Their boundless potential means that one day he can do anything; if the Dao Ancestor does not appear, no one can stop him. Rather than making things difficult for him now and breeding hatred toward our clan, it's better to lower our stance, lest he target us and cause unnecessary losses."

This...

Golden Dragon is a simpleton, his mind doesn't like to turn; hearing that, he said again, "But we have the Dao Ancestor—are we still afraid of him?"

Red Dragon said, "The Dao Ancestor won't interfere in too many matters; it's better to do less than more. Detaining that woman and offending Xiao Feng bring us no benefit—do you still not understand?"

"Uh... okay." Golden Dragon sighed, feeling his clan rather wronged.

But Mo Long Lao Zu's handling plan also makes sense; now Xiao Feng is so strong that if he grows further, even the Azure Dragon Ancestor might not be his match.

In the long run, this person must not be offended; we can only befriend him!

As for the ancestral precept saying "must not befriend the human race"... well, just listen to it casually.

That is a grudge from another world, having nothing to do with these Myriad Heavens beings.

If we were to drag the whole clan into a sea of fire over just that sentence, that would be utterly foolish!

……

Void transmission, the other side is another scene.

Xiao Feng emerged from the teleportation gate; before him lay a dazzling star river, vast in extent, obscuring the entire starry sky ahead.

Opening the map, one sees this is a corner of the Blackwater Mystic River, located at the outermost edge.

In the distance, two stars shine brightly—those are the two stars in the Blackwater River.

However, this place is too far away; looking over, it doesn't resemble the sun, merely a bright star.

Around there are no planets, only a chaotic meteorite belt; the entire starry sky is silent and empty, filled with hollowness and cold.

"Is this the Blackwater River, big brother? We're about to see the First Generation Azure Dragon next," He Xianzi said excitedly.

Meeting the Azure Dragon is a rare occurrence; few primordial beings survive to this day, each incredibly powerful, they are hegemonic-level existences on the Myriad Heavens Battlefield.

"Probably so; I don't know where the Eternal Frost Prison is."

Xiao Feng looked around, wanting to find where the Fairy Maiden Xun Shuang is imprisoned.

His gaze pierced the meteorite belt toward the distance; he discovered a small planet, wholly bluish-black, seemingly formed of ice crystal.

"Is that the place?" his heart stirred; he pointed the direction and said to He Xianzi, "Let's go take a look!"

"Okay, big brother!"

He Xianzi knew he was worried about Xun Shuang Xianzi's safety; she immediately flapped her wings and rushed toward the meteorite belt.

Unexpectedly……

Just as he entered the meteorite belt, a system voice suddenly sounded.

【Prompt: You have entered the Despair Formation; retreat immediately to leave its range, but advance and you will be trapped within, unable to escape!】

"Formation? Is this meteorite belt a formation?" Xiao Feng frowned.

"Big brother? What should we do?" He Xianzi asked.

"First retreat and see if we can go around." Xiao Feng said.

He Xianzi hovered in place, turned her head, and left.

【You have left the Despair Formation!】

The system voice sounded.

Xiao Feng glanced at the distant ice crystal planet.

The distance between the two places is actually not far—just a few hundred thousand kilometers; at He Xianzi's speed, after accelerating, they would arrive quickly.

But with a formation blocking it, that few-hundred-thousand-kilometer stretch is not easy to cross.

"Let's try going around." He ordered.

He Xianzi adjusted her direction, moving toward the "upward" side, attempting to bypass the formation from another angle.

In the starry sky, there is no up or down; all directions can be freely adjusted. Since 'down' is a concept derived from gravity, and gravity hardly exists in the starry sky, that sensation is naturally very faint.

He Xianzi flew in one direction, trying to bypass the meteorite belt, but after flying a certain distance, she discovered a major problem.

All directions around that ice crystal planet are surrounded by meteorite belts!

The meteorite belt is like an outer layer, wrapping every direction around it; to approach, one must inevitably enter the formation's range.

Once inside the formation, one will become lost.

"It seems that to see her, we must put some thought into it." Xiao Feng thought.

He Xianzi said, "Big brother, let's just call out to the Azure Dragon Ancestor; maybe he's nearby and hearing the shout will directly bring us in."

Xiao Feng nodded slightly and immediately tried it.

Shouting doesn't work; NPCs here can't hear players' voices, only divine sense can convey.

He released his willpower, calling: "Azure Dragon Senior, are you nearby?" He called out three times in a row.

In the starry sky, resistance is low, not only can speed be very fast, but divine sense also spreads farther, transmitting several hundred thousand kilometers, enough to reach the ice crystal planet over there.

But he received no response at all.

Xiao Feng tried again, calling toward the ice crystal planet: "Xun Shuang Xianzi, are you there? I'm Xiao Feng, I've come to take you away!"

But there was still no movement.

"How is it, big brother?" He Xianzi asked.

Xiao Feng sighed: "Looks like it won't work; we can only enter the formation."

The desperate formation is probably not so easy to cross. This time, it's destined to be troublesome for a while.

Fortunately, even within the formation, he can still open the Chaos Secret Realm's teleport gate, or use secret realm transmission to return to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield.

This formation only blocks his advance toward the ice crystal planet; it cannot keep him there forever.

"All right, big brother, let's begin!"

He Xianzi, with a tone of risking her life to accompany a gentleman, moved her wings and entered the formation's range again.

The system voice sounded again, but this time Xiao Feng did not retreat; instead, he went straight ahead.

After entering the asteroid belt, the scenery ahead changed greatly; the ice crystal planet disappeared and could no longer be used as a reference for direction.

Moreover, after they had flown a short distance forward, they felt the surrounding asteroids begin to shift positions, moving with them, starting to confuse direction.

Xiao Feng calmed himself, mapping the initial asteroid belt and planet positions in his mind, then had He Xianzi close her eyes and proceed forward guided by his intuition.

The illusionary formation deceives the eyes and willpower; as long as one does not rely on eyes and willpower to discern, but purely on sense of direction, there will be no mistake.
