Chapter 115: Terrifying Great Halberd
The deeper Ye Wuque goes into the core of the space‑time rupture, the more he feels the all‑consuming frenzy and restlessness.
Countless streaks of light surge from all directions like moths to a flame, desperately rushing toward the region where the energy fluctuations are most intense and the opportunities most abundant.
As he presses deeper, the strength of the beings he encounters steps up a tier; they are no longer the chaotic fugitives on the outskirts, but many are composed, profoundly cultivated elite disciples or lone strongmen from the major factions.
Boom!
A dazzling divine light sweeps past from the side—a young man in a star‑patterned robe, surrounded by arcane runes that seem to divine heavenly mechanisms and pierce fate; his aura has unmistakably reached the second stage of the Immortal Path—Crossing the Immortal Gate! A low murmur erupts.
"It's Qin Haoyuan of the Fate Divine Sect! Rumor has it he is the direct disciple of the Sixth Elder of the sect's headquarters, his fate‑manipulating arts fully inherited, able to judge fortune and misfortune, command destiny, and is exceedingly hard to contend with!"
"He's here too! It seems the space‑time rupture is drawing ever more powerful figures!"
Soon after, a thunderous roar comes from another direction as a bronze war chariot drawn by nine jiaolong dragons tramples the Void; atop the chariot stands a cold‑proud youth in splendid robes, exuding an overwhelmingly fierce aura.
"It's Feng Changyin of the Immortal Imperial Clan! He is the younger brother of the Young Emperor of Longevity! He has also descended!"
"Could it be that his brother Feng Changsheng gave him a mission, sending him here to seek something?"
"The Feng family has also intervened; now it's even more lively!"
Whoosh!
A domineering, sky‑splitting divine beam of battle intent tears the heavens; a valiant man clad in blood‑red battle armor, wielding a black war spear, descends like a War God, and none dare stand in his way!
"The War Prince of the War God Heavenly Hall! Even this hidden, unparalleled sacred land is stirred? Their heir has also manifested in the world!"
"It is said the War God Heavenly Hall selects heirs with extreme rigor; each heir possesses the War God constitution, born for battle, growing stronger with each fight—truly terrifying!"
Powerful auras rise unabashedly like beacon fires in the night, announcing their arrival, shaking the ten directions of the Void and drawing countless beings to stare in awe.
These are the truly renowned Heaven's Chosen, with colossal beings behind them, their own strength terrifyingly supreme.
Ye Wuque's presence likewise draws considerable attention and discussion.
He makes no effort to conceal his appearance; the conspicuous black robe and his calm demeanor are quickly recognized by some beings arriving from the Central Realm or well‑informed.
"Sss… Look at that person! The black robe… could it be the one who caused a massive stir in the Central Realm not long ago… Ye Wuque?!"
"It's really him! The ruthless one known as 'Hei Pao Sha Shen'! He even dares to come here?!"
"He carries the Ultimate Opportunity from an ancient secret realm and a supreme treasure capable of escaping the clutches of an ominous king! He's practically a walking treasure vault! He doesn't hide, yet brazenly appears here—how dare he?!"
"He's courting death! Does he really think that, backed by that mysterious Shenzun, no one would dare move against him? This is not the Central Realm; the core of the space‑time rupture is chaotic, death traps everywhere, and even if he dies here, Shenzun might not learn who struck first!"
"He knows nothing of heaven or earth! I reckon he'll sooner or later be devoured until not a bone remains!"
Many beings snicker repeatedly, their gazes at Ye Wuque filled with schadenfreude and unabashed greed.
Even more, some cold, excellently concealed figures linger like ghosts in the distance, their eyes snake‑like, fixed on Ye Wuque, clearly ill‑intent.
Regarding these murmurs and the hidden stalkers, Ye Wuque seems utterly oblivious, continuing at his own unhurried pace.
If he wished to conceal his identity, countless methods exist, yet he does not choose that path.
Hunters often appear in the form of prey.
Who truly is the prey, who is the lurking hunter, now… remains unknown.
Pressing onward, danger circles all around.
The core's peril far exceeds the outskirts; the raging Time‑Space Turbulence is like a giant python that selects victims to devour, ghostly SpaceTimeRifts can easily tear a person apart, myriad terrifying beasts warped by space‑time energy lurk in the dark, and some residual ancient killing formations are inadvertently triggered, unleashing destructive power.
Ye Wuque, relying on his formidable flesh, keen spiritual perception, and the aid of his Time‑Space Divine Eye, repeatedly evades these lethal hazards with barely a scare; when avoidance fails, he eradicates them with Lei Dian force, his speed undiminished.
At last, after traversing a torrent‑like band of chaotic energy, the scene before him clears, yet simultaneously grows more terrifying and oppressive!
Here, it seems a chaotic zone that has been utterly shattered and then forcibly fused together.
Countless massive space fragments float like mirrors, reflecting bizarre, otherworldly sights.
Below lies a bottomless, light‑devouring dark void.
Countless massive SpaceTimeRifts crisscross like a creation‑spanning serpent; the largest spans the heavens and earth like a wound, its interior a boiling, kaleidoscopic sea of space‑time energy, exuding a soul‑shaking destructive aura and… an indescribable, all‑drawing strange vibration!
Here lies one of the most central zones of this space‑time rupture!
It is also one of the sources where all opportunities erupt!
At this moment, the area teems with countless beings, all eyes burning on the largest rift, awaiting its next eruption; the atmosphere is tense and fervent.
Ye Wuque lands on a relatively stable massive floating stone, his gaze also fixed on the core rift while cautiously scanning the surroundings.
At that instant—buzz!
Not far away, a comparatively small SpaceTimeRift suddenly quivers violently, emitting a bleak, ancient, dead‑silent yet stubbornly combative aura that spreads outward!
The next moment, under countless uncertain gazes, a tall figure staggers out of the rift… step by step!
It is not a living being, but a desiccated corpse!
An ancient corpse whose death spans countless billions of years, flesh long dried, skin clinging to bone, shimmering with a dark‑golden luster!
Its garments have long weathered and shattered, their era indiscernible.
But most striking is that across the corpse's chest, an ancient, massive halberd is thrust obliquely!
The halberd is wholly dark‑gold, its shaft scarred with mottled marks and vague ancient engravings, yet its blade still glints with a chilling light that makes the heart race, as if it could easily cleave the cosmos!
A tragic, domineering, world‑sweeping supreme edge radiates autonomously, its brilliance undiminished even after eons of erosion.
"That is… an ancient heroic spirit!!"
A well‑versed elder cries out in shock and awe.
"They are powerful beings from ancient eras; after death their lingering obsessions persist, and by chance of opportunity they become this special existence, drifting aimlessly through the Space‑time gaps of the Zhutian Wanjie by instinct!"
"That massive halberd on its chest… astounding! Undoubtedly a ancient weapon of terrifying grade, surviving ten thousand ages without decay, autonomously emitting its edge—perhaps at least an Immortal Divine Weapon!!"
"Moreover, looking at it… it resembles the legendary Epoch Heavy Weapon… could it be a replica?"
Another ancient entity murmurs to itself, recalling something.
Countless gazes instantly blaze with unbridled greed!
An ancient halberd that appears to be an Immortal Divine Weapon, its value incalculable!
Ye Wuque's gaze is instantly drawn to the halberd, yet the moment he discerns its shape and feels its unique aura, his—
The shape of this great halberd, and its fierce, domineering aura… actually bears an astonishing resemblance to his Great Dragon Halberd!!
"Could this… be another Great Dragon Halberd? No! It shouldn't be possible! The Great Dragon Halberd cannot be spoken of lightly! Unparalleled since the Primordial Era! There cannot be a second one! This must be… a replica of the Great Dragon Halberd?"
Ye Wuque felt waves stir in his heart.
The origin of the Great Dragon Halberd is extraordinarily mysterious, and its power continues to unlock as his strength grows; even now it still feels unfathomable.
Even if this halberd before him is merely a replica, it is still terrifying beyond measure!
Because the unparalleled sharpness it radiates makes even his Skin tingle faintly!
"Grab it!!"
The valuable treasure stirs hearts; immediately, greedy beings with reddened eyes rushed forward, trying to pull that great halberd from the Primordial Era heroic spirit!
However, just as they approached the Hundred Zhang radius surrounding the Primordial Era heroic spirit—
Boom!!
The Primordial Era heroic spirit, which had stood rigid like a lifeless object, suddenly jolted!
An indescribable, terrifying, colossal force as if accumulated over countless ages surged, mingling with overwhelming war intent and Dead Silence aura, erupting like a tsunami!
