Chapter 824: Chapter 823: The Place Where Spiritual Energy of the Hidden Sect Disappears
As long as there is a buffer, Yang Fei’s title of "Seventh Slayer" can still be preserved.
A few hours later, the two of them entered a dual cultivation state.
It must be said that the effect of dual cultivation with Qin Yanyang was slightly better than when cultivating with Tong Yunshu.
Although the effect was astonishing when cultivating with Tong Yunshu after she comprehended the Great Yellow Court Technique, Qin Yanyang’s overall strength was still somewhat higher, and the two’s cultivation techniques, being one yin and one yang, naturally complemented each other.
The sky grew pale, and dawn approached.
In their dual cultivation state for over three hours, they both returned to peak condition.
Suddenly, at a certain moment, their souls reached a high level of congruence, once again achieving the most mystical state they had before their quarrel.
In an instant, their perception power multiplied several times.
Since Qin Yanyang had stepped into the Divine Travel Realm, this was the first time they had dual cultivated and reached such a spiritually harmonious state. Qin Yanyang was pleasantly surprised to find that her Divine Soul Thought Power seemed to have increased by three or four times; she tested it and indeed discovered that her Telekinesis could be released at a distance about four times longer than her previous best.
Before, when they held hands, their True Qi combined to reach a state much greater than one plus one.
Now their Divine Souls had also achieved this state, thus if the two of them join forces, being invincible would not be an exaggeration.
Qin Yanyang had mixed feelings about this phenomenon, both joy and resentment.
The wish to see the Divine Continent rise in her lifetime seemed inseparable from this scoundrel, how vexing!
Yang Fei was secretly pleased that they could enter such a mystical state, but soon his focus shifted away from this matter, as he keenly sensed the laws of the universe within the Hidden Sect.
Cultivators’ pursuit of immortality had become somewhat elusive.
Rather than pursuing immortality, it was more about the pursuit of powerful personal force.
And those who step into the Divine Travel Realm understand well that true strength is not in power itself, but in the laws of power.
If one can comprehend the laws of power in each space, it would mean standing invincible within the power laws of that space.
"Hmm?"
Currently, Qin Yanyang, being in spiritual harmony with Yang Fei, also sensed this subtle discovery, and couldn’t help but feel amazed, inwardly asking Yang Fei through their spiritual connection, "What’s going on?"
Yang Fei replied, "I seem to have sensed the laws of heaven and earth in this space and can see through the rules of power here."
This was a very nuanced saying and feeling; Qin Yanyang, by virtue of her spiritual harmony with Yang Fei, also glimpsed this insight.
"It’s a pity these rules of power have already started to become disordered and unstable," Yang Fei said.
Qin Yanyang silently nodded, understanding a kind of sorrow emitted by the laws of this space.
The two of them sensed for a while, and suddenly Yang Fei had a thought and exited the dual cultivation state.
Qin Yanyang seemed to perceive something and looked at him expectantly.
Yang Fei smiled at her and nodded, saying, "Exactly. Since we can now sense the laws of the world in this space, can we think of ways to repair it?"
"If repaired and perfected, would it mean that the entire Hidden Sect Plane could return to peace and continue to exist?" Qin Yanyang’s eyes glistened with anticipation as she spoke.
Yang Fei was also full of excitement, but after a moment of contemplation, he revealed a bitter expression and shook his head dejectedly, saying, "It’s not feasible. The biggest reason for the collapse of the Hidden Sect Plane is the lack of source energy. Spiritual Energy is the fundamental energy that sustains this world, and now it is exhausted, continuously vanishing, making it impossible to maintain the world. Though I can comprehend the laws of power in this Plane World and try to repair them, the key issue is the energy source. Without a substitute for Spiritual Energy, we can’t let this space continue."
Qin Yanyang’s expression dimmed with disappointment, "It was all for nothing."
Yang Fei, however, smiled and shook his head, "How could it be all for nothing? Since I see through the framework of power rules in this world, even if I can’t change its fate of collapse, I can precisely predict when it will collapse to some extent. Moreover, I’ve thought of a way, perhaps to minimize the disastrous effects caused by the collapse of this void. Avoiding too much impact on the Great Divine Continent."
Qin Yanyang’s eyes lit up as she looked at Yang Fei and asked, "Really?"
Yang Fei nodded, "It’s just a thought for now; whether it’s feasible still needs further observation."
"As long as the collapse here has less impact on the outside world, that’s good enough. I’m no longer insisting on preserving this Small World," Qin Yanyang said.
Yang Fei looked at her and chuckled, "Wife, not angry anymore?"
Hearing this, Qin Yanyang snorted softly.
Yang Fei held her hand and said coyly, "See, I am your deputy, as long as we, as a couple, stay well, we can find ways to solve the problems. Moreover, the two of us together, in our current state, I feel invincible."
Speaking of this, Qin Yanyang was also instantly filled with strong confidence.
Although there aren’t many top-level warriors in the Divine Continent, combined with Yang Fei, their combat power would certainly be no less than the top experts of the Hidden Sect, perhaps even stronger.
This is enough.
Sufficient to serve as deterrence against those people and gain some time for the development of the Divine Continent.
"Not in a hurry to go out for now, huh?" Yang Fei suddenly asked.
Qin Yanyang pondered for a moment, nodding, "As long as those strong from the Hidden Sect don’t act recklessly, it won’t make much difference whether I’m there or not for now."
Yang Fei said, "That’s fine, let’s go and see the Zhuge family."
Qin Yanyang asked, "For what?"
"There’s a deep pit there called the Extreme Abyss, which is the teleportation channel to Meishan Mountain, but now I suspect it’s more than just a teleportation entrance," Yang Fei said.
"Let’s go and have a look," Qin Yanyang said, noticing the flash of an unusual brilliance in Yang Fei’s eyes, surmising he must have made some sort of discovery or hypothesis.
With that, the two of them headed in the direction of the Zhuge family’s location.
Along the way, they passed through some towns, but they were already deserted, almost devoid of people, causing them to contemplate in silence.
The once prosperous holy lands of cultivation, bustling cities, were about to slowly turn into ruins from now on.
One wonders, if a third full-scale war breaks out on Earth, whether the future of the Earth would also resemble the desolate doomsday scene of the current Hidden Sect World?
Although Qin Yanyang said there was no rush to go out, Yang Fei was still worried that if they stayed in the Hidden Sect for too long, there might be some earth-shattering upheaval outside, thus they traveled as quickly as possible.
In just over three days, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the Zhuge family manor.
The once majestic Zhuge Manor had now turned incredibly desolate.
However, upon entering the manor, they found that dozens of people still resided here.
Upon inquiry, it turned out these were elders of the Zhuge family.
After the last great battle, the Zhuge family had completely fallen. The vast majority of the young and middle-aged members of the clan left the Hidden Sect with the migrating groups.
But these elders, longing for the Hidden Sect World, felt they had little time left due to their advanced age, and chose to stay here with the mindset of coexisting with the Hidden Sect World.
Regarding these elders of the Zhuge family, Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang did not trouble them.
Among these people, the highest Realm was only at the middle-late stage of the Energy Transformation Realm, which made no significant difference to the Divine Continent now boasting over nine million Hidden Sect practitioners.
The two of them reached the manor’s central area, where the Extreme Abyss was already devoid of people.
According to information from the Zhuge family’s elders, those who left the Hidden Sect via this route had all been transported out in the morning.
There might still be many like the elders of the Zhuge family within the vast Hidden Sect World, who stubbornly chose not to leave and to coexist with the Hidden Sect, but the majority for survival had chosen to migrate to the Divine Continent World.
At the Extreme Abyss, having observed for a while, Yang Fei said to Qin Yanyang, "Can’t see much, let’s try dual cultivating."
Qin Yanyang nodded, collaborating with him to enter into a dual cultivation state.
Soon, that feeling of soul connection emerged.
Yang Fei’s perception power multiplied several times, and his Divine Thought continuously probed into the depths of the Extreme Abyss as if looking into an endless chasm.
After a long time, Yang Fei revealed a ’so it is’ expression and said with a smile, "Finally found it, this place is indeed not just a teleportation channel but also the central Array Eye of the Hidden Sect Plane. The damage to the Array Eye is causing the continuous loss of Spiritual Energy here."
