Chapter 359: The Wonderful Use of the Ancient Book! Weird Humanoid Creatures!

~14 min read 2,700 words

Void.

Chu Yang looked at this dim world and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Before coming in, he had more or less conjectures about the void, and the scene before him did not exceed his expectations too much.

Purple-black light flowed around, looking somewhat gorgeous; the sky was purple-black, like an aurora.

The ground was also purple-black, but it looked like it had been soaked in blood.

That's right, there was ground here!

This really surprised Chu Yang, but he soon discovered that he was on a huge "island".

This was like cosmic dust in the known universe; at the end of the "land" was the void space where purple-black light flowed.

Looking back at the rift behind him, one could see the main universe through the rift.

Feeling the surging faith power in the Ascension Amulet again, a smile appeared on Chu Yang's face.

The words he said when he left were not because he was not sure about surviving in the void, nor were they to pave the way for the entire universe.

His purpose was very simple, entirely to reap a wave of faith power before leaving! Stepping lightly under his feet, Chu Yang flew into the air; he found that Pan Gu had entered a semi-malfunctioning state after entering the void.

All algorithms lost their effect, and even with Primordial Qi, it was difficult to perform spatial jumps here.

But he felt relieved after thinking about it; whether it was spatial jumps or impulse jumps, in a sense, they were all opening a spatial gap and then letting oneself enter the void to achieve spatial travel.

But since this was already the void, where would the space behind the gap be? Cosmic space was not an infinite nesting doll; unless one used special means to briefly enter a high-dimensional world or a low-dimensional world, it was almost impossible to perform spatial jumps in the void.

Standing in the air, Chu Yang looked around and found that the "dust" he had just been on was actually the largest piece in the area near the rift.

The rest were all rubble, and more were tiny particles; clearly, this place had suffered a great degree of damage in the singularity explosion.

I am afraid that precisely because of this, even though he had opened the rift, no void creatures had approached.

Chu Yang waved his hand lightly, and the Three Saints True Spirits swept out and landed on the huge dust he had just been on.

With these three true spirits, which had now reached the peak of the Dou Sheng realm, it was enough to guard the void rift.

According to Karl's classification of void creature strength, even general-level void creatures would not be able to cross the thunder pool by half a step.

Because the influence of the singularity explosion would still exist for a period of time, during this time, there would be no void creature technology.

But it wouldn't be long before the Three Saints True Spirits could reach the Dou Di level! Although Douqi Chu Yang had been focusing on refining the tree spirit of the Bodhi Ancient Tree, don't forget that whether it was the Mountain Melting Cauldron or the heavenly materials and earthly treasures, they were all dead objects.

Unpicked heavenly materials and earthly treasures could naturally be counted as life, but since they had been picked, they did not possess any life aura, so they could be carried into the Soul Palace.

So Douqi Chu Yang handed over the medicine cauldron and medicinal materials to the research team, and everyone took turns refining pills, and then "fed" the Four Saints True Spirits through the Life-Giving Technique.

In this way, the evolution speed of the Four Saints True Spirits was greatly improved, and now they were only half a step away from completing their first evolution.

Since Chu Yang had entered the void, he would naturally make a big commotion and launch a massacre against the void creatures.

Even if there were fish that slipped through the net, they would definitely not be able to pass the Three Saints True Spirits.

As for why he wanted to hunt void creatures?

This had to mention Karl's ancient book! Although this thing came from a prehistoric civilization, it was far less complicated than the Ascension Amulet.

Its function only had two directions, and it was simple and clear.

First, devour souls! Second, allow the holder to perfectly unleash soul force as they pleased!

To put it bluntly, there was no need to be distracted by control, and there was no need for exquisite use of soul force; as long as Chu Yang had a thought and injected enough soul force, the ancient book could instantly help him evolve a true dragon made of soul force!

In this process, what was consumed was the soul force accumulated in the ancient book.

This feeling was like...

Comparing the ancient book to a car, Chu Yang's soul force acted as fuel, and the soul force in the ancient book was the engine.

It was just that in addition to devouring souls, the ancient book could also devour void creatures; Chu Yang did not know the principle of this point, and perhaps even Karl did not know.

After all, void creatures had too many special features; they were called creatures, but they far exceeded the scope of creatures.

Putting away his thoughts, Chu Yang's figure turned into a stream of light and swept straight into the depths of the void.

It was impossible to distinguish direction in the void, and it was impossible to confirm the position; everything around seemed to be unchanging.

For three full days, Chu Yang did not see any void creatures; as far as the eye could see, it was all "void dust".

It was conceivable how much damage that singularity explosion had caused to the void!

Of course, if there hadn't been absolute deterrence, how would those void creatures dare not approach the rift?

Even if he couldn't perform spatial jumps, Chu Yang's speed was still very fast, but as he went deeper and deeper, it was inevitable that he would lose his sense of direction.

But fortunately, he could confirm the direction they were in through his connection with the Three Saints True Spirits, and reverse-confirm his forward direction.

As long as the Three Saints True Spirits were always behind him, the direction he was moving forward was the depths of the void!

Until the fourth day, Chu Yang finally saw the first void creature.

Giant void worm!

The battle of intercepting the void made Chu Yang discover that most of the creatures in the void seemed to be of the insect family, so he made a simple classification.

Although the giant void worm was huge, it was not bloated, but rather had distinct bone joints, which he called the void bone worm.

And those ladybugs that were as huge as cosmic battleships and could rely on the impact of their bodies and spatial shattering were called "vanguards" by Chu Yang.

The small insects split from the vanguards were called "ants" by him.

Those creatures with short forelimbs but extremely fast speed that first rushed out of the void rift were called "scouts" by him.

However, the void bone worm Chu Yang encountered this time was very different from the last time.

It did not have the strength of a Dou Di level, at best it was about the same as a third-generation divine body, and its size was very small, only five meters tall.

When Chu Yang discovered it, it was devouring another void creature, and after devouring it, its size grew a bit larger, and its strength increased accordingly.

Devour! Evolve! Chu Yang personally experienced the weirdness of void creatures again; these guys did not have high intelligence, but they could continuously evolve through devouring, and the upper limit was amazing.

After solving this void bone worm and letting the ancient book devour it, Chu Yang continued to move forward.

In the next two days, he encountered more than a dozen void creatures one after another, including void bone worms, void mantises, and void scouts.

It stands to reason that those vanguards who only know how to charge, are extremely clumsy, and lack offensive and defensive means should be the lowest existence in the food chain in this Void that only knows how to devour and evolve.

But along the way, Chu Yang didn't even see a single ant, let alone a vanguard.

Along the way, Chu Yang discovered that the number of Void creatures was actually not large, at least not comparable to the huge population base of the main universe.

However, the overall strength of the Void creatures is very strong. Leaving aside the vanguards and ants, even the weakest Void creature possesses power comparable to a third-generation god body.

As for the vanguards and ants, Chu Yang vaguely felt that these two types of creatures should have a special status in the Void; otherwise, with their strength, they would have been devoured to extinction long ago. Thinking back to when the Void attacked the main universe, various creatures had clear division of labor and the attack rhythm was orderly, obviously there was a "commander."

Although he didn't know how Karl controlled the Void creatures, he failed to control the three general-level Void creatures.

So that commander was likely not him.

That is to say...

In the Void, there exist highly intelligent life forms!

The vanguards and ants are likely protected by those highly intelligent life forms.

"Bang!"

With one punch, he blasted a six-story-high Void bone worm, and strands of purple-black energy were devoured by the ancient tree above Chu Yang's head.

Although Pan Gu at this stage cannot analyze the Void, Chu Yang can use his soul force to investigate the energy permeating the Void and the Void creatures.

He discovered that the energy dissipated after the death of Void creatures was no different from the energy permeating everywhere in the void space.

But the ancient book can only absorb the energy produced after the death of Void creatures, but cannot directly devour the energy substances in the void space.

In the final analysis, there must be some kind of trait in the Void creatures, but Chu Yang could not discover it.

Just at this moment, the void space in the distance suddenly trembled, and Chu Yang's pupils shrank slightly.

The trembling of the void space—this was a situation he had never encountered before! Higher-dimensional beings and lower-dimensional beings cannot directly enter cells, which means that the source causing the void space to tremble must be a Void creature!

Chu Yang narrowed his eyes, 【Fengdu】 leaped into his hand, surrounded by faint black light.

"Flesh and blood... evolution..."

A low, hoarse voice sounded, just like the howling of a fierce ghost in prison, so harsh that it made one's teeth ache.

Chu Yang no longer hesitated, the Original Body of Martial Essence covered his body, the 【Fengdu】 in his hand turned into a black ancient seal, Fengdu City emerged behind him, and a black imperial robe covered his whole body.

With a wave of his hand, Chu Yang threw the Fengdu seal directly, smashing it toward the trembling space.

"Ding!!"

The sound of metal clashing rang out, the trembling of the void space became more intense, and finally, a figure appeared.

It was a humanoid creature covered in armor from head to toe, holding a sharp blade in its hand.

Although it was humanoid, it was over four meters tall, a veritable little giant.

At this time, the sharp blade in the humanoid creature's hand was pressing against the Fengdu seal. This was the first time that Chu Yang's invincible Zanpakuto had been blocked by an enemy! Di Zhizun! At least an existence comparable to a Di Zhizun!

Chu Yang's eyes became solemn. Although the energy beam of the Void Giant Eye was comparable to the full-strength blow of a Di Zhizun, it required a certain amount of time to accumulate power and only had the strength of one blow.

But the humanoid creature in front of him was different. Chu Yang felt waves of pressure from it; that was a genuine Di Zhizun level.

Any random attack could be comparable to the energy beam of the Void Giant Eye!

Through the humanoid creature's helmet, Chu Yang could see a pair of scarlet eyes, but other than that, there were no biological characteristics, only a mass of thick black fog.

This humanoid creature felt like a ghost clad in armor.

"Clang!!"

The sharp blade in the humanoid creature's hand swung fiercely, actually breaking free from the Fengdu seal and retreating.

Chu Yang knew very well that he had caught the opponent off guard with a surprise attack and must not give the opponent a chance to catch their breath.

Otherwise, facing an existence at the Di Zhizun level, even if he could win, he would suffer heavy injuries.

In this Void, once seriously injured, death is not far away.

Thinking of this, Chu Yang pressed forward, grabbed the Fengdu seal, and his momentum climbed step by step.

If someone were behind him, they could clearly see his entire spine shining brightly through the black imperial robe, just like an angry dragon going against the sky.

Chu Yang's body spun in the air, his arm raised high, and he swung the Fengdu seal in his hand fiercely!

"Boom!!!"

This time, the humanoid creature did not have time to block with its sharp blade and was hit squarely by the Fengdu seal.

The void space trembled violently, and the terrifying aftermath swept out.

Centered on Chu Yang and the humanoid creature, all the Void dust around them instantly shattered and turned into powder.

Rising Dragon!

This is a divine ability created by combining the Ultimate Gene after the Ascension Saint Body comprehensively enhanced all of Chu Yang's abilities, and the dragon vein in the spine was further improved.

The effect of Rising Dragon is very simple: it is to greatly increase Chu Yang's power in an instant!

Compared to when he intercepted the Void, Chu Yang's strength has undergone a qualitative improvement. If a powerhouse who has just entered the Dou Di realm in the Douqi Continent is benchmarked against a First-Rank Zhizun of the Great Thousand World.

When intercepting the Void, setting aside the Zanpakuto, Chu Yang's full-burst strength was equivalent to about a Third-Rank Zhizun.

Superimposed with the Bankai of the Zanpakuto, he could fight anyone below the Di Zhizun level.

Now, after continuous ascensions, Chu Yang's full-burst strength has reached the Fifth-Rank Zhizun level.

Coupled with the Bankai of 【Fengdu】, and using the seal as a weapon, it is enough to threaten an ordinary Di Zhizun.

With the instantaneous burst brought by Rising Dragon, Chu Yang had great confidence that this blow could seriously injure or even directly smash the humanoid creature to death! "Crack..."

The armor shattered, but just as the seal was about to land on the "black fog" inside the armor, the humanoid creature suddenly disappeared.

Chu Yang's eyes narrowed, the brilliant light on his spine behind him slowly dissipated, the power of the Five Spirits surged out, and the Hun Tian Five Absolutes instantly covered this void space!

A moment later, Chu Yang frowned, put away 【Fengdu】, and dispersed the Original Body of Martial Essence.

It escaped!

He knew very well how terrifying the power he had unleashed in that instant was.

Let alone a Void creature with low intelligence, even if a Di Zhizun from the Great Thousand World came, unless they reached the Great Perfection of the Di Zhizun realm, they wouldn't be able to retreat unscathed.

But the humanoid Void creature escaped in the blink of an eye under such circumstances. Even though Chu Yang covered this area indiscriminately with the Hun Tian Five Absolutes at the first moment, he still couldn't stop it! Such fast speed!

Such a strange creature!

And...

The intelligence of that humanoid creature seemed to be higher than any Void creature Chu Yang had ever seen.

At least it understands language! (End of chapter)
