Chapter 1405

At that very moment, Ryūken gripped Shikai no Kagami tightly.

His expression instantly turned grave as he fully activated Shikai no Kagami, hypnotizing Ju Yue.

Indeed, Ju Yue's body suddenly stiffened, freezing in place mid-air.

"... Difficult?"

Su Han glanced at Ryūken's grim face; if Ryūken found it hard, he'd just keep sealing her with Earth Burst Star and Real Gemstone—even if it drained his stamina, he could always exchange for a Stamina Rune at the end.

Though Ryūken's expression was grave, his smile remained unchanged.

He answered without addressing the question.

"Ju Yue's mind is unstable in this state, so controlling her isn't very difficult.

I can feel her power steadily declining... in about fifteen minutes, she'll return to normal."

Su Han nodded slightly, said nothing more, and turned his head, "You've been spying from the side long enough—haven't you seen enough?"

As he spoke, Su Han clenched his fist and activated the Space Gem's power—the flow of time and space shifted instantly.

The Gem Elder appeared before Su Han and the others with a flash, his body locking rigid.

"... What's going on? That sensation... space? No! If this were space-based magic... how could it bypass my Second Law's control over space and teleport me here directly?"

"Could it be some other form of space magic? That makes no sense! Why have I never heard of anything like this?"

Sweat beaded on the Gem Elder's forehead as he stared grimly at Su Han and Ryūken.

Though he'd already overestimated Su Han, he now realized his estimate had been far too low.

This man not only possesses a physical body strong enough to shatter stars, but in spatial mastery, he rivals—even surpasses—my Second Law... this cannot even be called a miracle.

For as the wielder of the Second Law, I am already a miracle walking among mortals—so Su Han might better be described as a miracle of miracles. "Old man! You came to spy because of Ju Yue, right?"

Su Han pointed at Ju Yue, his voice calm.

The Gem Elder said nothing.

The more he spoke, the more he risked error—who knew what these people's intentions or thoughts were? Facing such terrifying freaks, the Gem Elder decided caution was wiser.

Su Han didn't mind. "Wait a little longer. Once Arcueid wakes up, everything will be fine."

With that, Su Han closed his eyes to rest.

Seeing Su Han truly had no hostile intent, the Gem Elder finally relaxed, then furrowed his brow and cast a deep glance at Arcado.

Arcado's... immortality trait differed sharply from that of a Death God.

As a Death God, the Gem Elder found Arcado intriguing, but after considering Su Han and Ryūken, he suppressed that curiosity.

"In the countless parallel worlds I've seen, I've never encountered these individuals.

Who are these people... unique to this world, or..."
