Chapter 674: The 5th Layer of the Chaos Dragon Tomb

No one could have imagined that he would kill a Pseudo-Saint in a single strike!

The faces of the twelve Yun Dao Level experts contorted in shock. They couldn’t believe it. One moment, they held a guaranteed victory; the next, the tables had suddenly turned. Their clan’s Pseudo-Saint was dead.

Elder Hai Xu was the greatest pillar of support for the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Race. If the other Sea Races were to learn of his death, the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Race would face annihilation.

“Kill him!”

The twelve Yun Dao experts were consumed by rage. They absolutely could not allow Ye Wushuang to leave this place today. If news of Elder Hai Xu’s death were to get out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

BOOM!

The great hall trembled as the twelve Yun Dao experts charged. The light of the Great Dao shrouded the void, and their Dao Principles materialized into peerless halberds that shot toward Ye Wushuang.

“Three Realms Slaughter!”

Ye Wushuang countered with Three Realms Slaughter. An endless stream of World-Destroying Saber Aura continuously hacked at the halberds. The boiling energy slammed against the palace walls.

ROAR!

Several of the Yun Dao Level masters instantly reverted to their true Nine-Headed Sea Demon forms. Their ferocious heads spat out destructive beams of light that shot forth in rapid succession, like lasers.

“Heaven-Devouring Dragon Secret, True Dragon Body!”

With a great roar, Ye Wushuang transformed into a Golden True Dragon. A Divine Dragon’s Tail Swing swept away the destructive beams of light.

At the same time, his dragon claws swiped forward, smashing four or five of a Nine-Headed Sea Demon’s heads to a pulp.

GRAAAWR!

The True Dragon let out a furious cry and devoured that Nine-Headed Sea Demon in a single gulp!

RUMBLE!

At the same moment, streaks of extreme Dao light, like flashing Divine Swords, slashed at the Golden Flood Dragon’s body. CLANG! CLANG! Sparks flew from its form, which seemed to be cast from solid gold.

The Golden Flood Dragon opened its maw and spat a pillar of golden light, piercing through the body of another Nine-Headed Sea Demon. Before the creature could even begin to reform its body, the dragon devoured it whole.

After the Refinement of two Yun Dao Level experts, Ye Wushuang felt his Cultivation surge, reaching the Peak of the Divine Silence Level!

‘I’ll break through to the Yun Dao Level right here!’

Ye Wushuang made his decision and swallowed the rest of the Heaven and Earth Essence.

Endless Heaven and Earth Dao Principles and a vast, majestic energy flooded his body. His Cultivation surged once more, increasing countlessfold.

GRAAAWR!

The Golden True Dragon sent the surrounding Sea Demon experts flying. It threw its head back and roared at the heavens. In that instant, the Firmament trembled. The skies above the Three Thousand Sea Domains suddenly grew dark and heavy.

Pillar after pillar of heaven-piercing lightning descended from the Firmament, heading straight for the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Palace!

The Clan Guardian Grand Array was also pierced and obliterated by the endless barrage of lightning pillars!

“All members of the Half-Demon Race, withdraw from the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Palace!”

“All members of the Original People Clan, withdraw from the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Palace!”

“All members of the Flood Dragon Clan, withdraw from the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Palace!”

…

With the Clan Guardian Grand Array shattered, panicked shouts rang out as all the Sea Race members and outsiders fled the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Palace.

The lightning pillars fell like a hundred thousand falling stars. The apocalyptic sight shocked every single person!

The pillars of lightning had but one target: the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Palace!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM…

The Nine-Headed Sea Demon Palace was instantly razed to the ground. The island itself began to sink under the bombardment, as if everything within this territory was fated for destruction!

Not just the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Race, even a single ant would be obliterated!

And all this was happening just to destroy Ye Wushuang!

The great hall was at the base of the island, but it was blasted open by the relentless lightning pillars. The hall itself was pierced through!

The pillars of lightning were instruments of pure annihilation. They spared no one, smashing down on everything. Their targets included the ten remaining Sea Demon masters and Ye Wushuang in his Golden Flood Dragon form.

“Little bastard, you’re actually Crossing the Tribulation here!”

The Sea Demon masters roared in fury, only to be struck down by the pillars of lightning.

“Silence!”

Ye Wushuang, as the Golden True Dragon, empowered himself with the Supreme Transformation True Demon. He swiftly suppressed and killed the ten Yun Dao Level masters, devouring them all and transforming them into boundless energy to break through to the supreme Yun Dao Realm!

GRAAAWR!

After a long while, the Golden True Dragon threw its head back and roared. Its Golden Divine Light shone for thousands of miles, and the Inscriptions on its body flickered, coalescing into countless Dao Principles!

‘Yun Dao, break!’

Ye Wushuang roared in his mind as his soaring energy clashed against the pillars of lightning.

VMMMM! VMMMM!

At that same instant, the Chaos Dragon Tomb trembled, and a massive, nine-colored shield of light enveloped Ye Wushuang!

‘The Fifth Layer of the Chaos Dragon Tomb!’

A stream of information flooded into Ye Wushuang’s mind.

‘It’s opened!’

Ye Wushuang felt a flicker of anticipation for the Chaos Dragon Tomb. The previous four layers had granted him many heaven-defying treasures. ‘What will the fifth layer hold?’

‘A crisis?’

‘Or a fortunate encounter?’

As his thoughts raced, Ye Wushuang’s Divine Soul swiftly entered the Chaos Space.

The endless Chaos seemed to have been unsealed; the Chaos Space had expanded by more than ten times!

‘The Fifth Layer!’

Ye Wushuang’s figure flickered and strangely vanished from the Chaos Space, only to reappear in another one.

It was as if the Chaos Space was a universe, and this new space was a Little World within that universe!

However, what puzzled Ye Wushuang was that this was just an empty void. There was nothing here. It even felt as if time itself had stood still.

‘Could the treasure in this space have been taken by a previous host?’

Ye Wushuang wondered. He knew for a fact that there had been several hosts before him.

But just as he was thinking this, another stream of information flooded his mind. He finally understood what this place was.

This was the Chaos Dragon Tomb’s Absolute Space, where the flow of time could be controlled!

After reading the information, Ye Wushuang finally understood. In the Absolute Space, the flow of time could be altered. A hundred days inside could pass in the time it took for a single day to pass outside!

One day of Cultivation outside could become one hundred days—or even more—of Cultivation inside, all thanks to the altered flow of time!

And upon returning outside, only one day would have passed!

The rate of time dilation was determined by Ye Wushuang’s own Cultivation.

Now that Ye Wushuang was at the Yun Dao Level, the time ratio between this space and the outside world was ten to one. Ten days here equaled only one day outside!

‘Absolute Space, absolute time!’

Understanding this, Ye Wushuang was completely stunned. This meant he would have far more time for Cultivation than anyone else.

What’s more, to his utter delight, time was exactly what he needed most right now!

Warring against the heavens required immense power, and gaining that power required an immense amount of time.

Undoubtedly, the Absolute Space solved this problem.

‘The Chaos Dragon Tomb has given me something truly heaven-defying!’

‘As I grow stronger, the Absolute Space will become even more ridiculous. It could reach a hundred days, or even a year, inside for every one day outside!’

At this thought, Ye Wushuang couldn’t contain his joy. With time, he could become so much stronger!

Although he had broken through to the Yun Dao Level by using the Heaven and Earth Essence and devouring twelve Yun Dao masters from the Nine-Headed Sea Demon Race, he had yet to comprehend the Heaven and Earth Path. He possessed the Realm in name only.

And what he needed to do now was to comprehend the Heaven and Earth Path.

‘The Heaven and Earth Essence is a heaven-defying substance. It contains countless worldly mysteries. If I can comprehend even a portion of it, I’ll be able to grasp the Heaven and Earth Path and step into the true Yun Dao Level.’

The Dao Principle Marks from the Heaven and Earth Essence were branded upon his Divine Soul. For Ye Wushuang, this gave him a massive head start in comprehending them.

Immediately, Ye Wushuang sat cross-legged in the Absolute Space.

While the Chaos Dragon Tomb held back the terrifying Thunder Tribulation, he began his comprehension, taking the first step toward becoming a true Yun Dao Level expert.
