The empty passage shook.
This was not a normal kind of light oscillation caused by natural fluctuations of spatial force, but rather a violent vibration that was forcibly disturbed by an external force.
Shards of space began to peel away from the walls of the passage, emitting ear-piercing screams.
“Someone is blocking the entrance!”
Yunxi’s expression changed drastically. “This is impossible. The void passageway was randomly torn apart, not a fixed passageway. How could someone possibly interfere?”
Before he finished speaking, a terrifying force broke in from the outer wall of the passage.
explosion!
The entire void passage twisted violently, and space fragments scattered like torrential rain.
David felt his body being torn apart by an irresistible force, and Yun Xi and Jiang Xuelan moved further and further away from his sight.
“David!” Yun Xi’s voice came from a distance, getting fainter and fainter.
“Yunxi! Jiang Xuelan!”
David desperately reached out, trying to grab something, but all he could find were fragments of empty space and endless darkness.
His body was swept by the spatial storm and fell in an unknown direction.
As he fell, he felt a faint presence.
It was demonic energy.
Black, cold, and filled with endless hatred—this demonic energy.
He was very familiar with that demonic energy; the energy belonged to Ning Zhi.
No, not exactly the same.
Ning Zhi’s demon energy was pitch black, and also contained a hint of scorching heat, like magma.
Could it be the Fire Demon?
Thinking of this, David’s heart trembled. If the Flame Demon wanted to attack him, his strength would not be enough!
David gritted his teeth, trying to calm himself down, but the power of the spatial storm was too great.
The chaotic power within him surged wildly within his body, and purple light radiated from his skin, barely protecting his vital organs.
Then, everything went dark.
He lost consciousness.
David awoke to a sharp pain.
He opened his eyes and saw a sky that was unfamiliar to him.
The sky was dark purple, with two suns hanging high above, one gold and the other silver.
The simultaneous illumination of two suns colored the earth a strange golden purple hue.
The spiritual energy in the air was at least ten times more concentrated than on Fourteenth Heaven, and the quality of the spiritual energy was purer and more substantial.
But David wasn’t in the mood to appreciate these things at the moment.
His whole body ached.
The bones in his left arm appeared to be cracked, his right leg was twisted, and there was a wound on his chest caused by a celestial fragment, with golden blood still seeping out.
After most of the chaotic power was absorbed, several small cracks appeared on the blade of the Dragon Slayer Sword.
He struggled to sit up and looked around.
This is a barren land.
The scorched, gray-black land stretched to the horizon, barren without any vegetation.
The land was filled with cracked ravines and weathered rocks, and the distant hills cast long shadows under the purple sky.
The faint smell of sulfur filled the air, along with an indescribable stench.
“Yunxi? Jiang Xuelan?” he called twice.
Nobody answered.
He was scattered by the spatial storm.
Yunxi and Jiang Xuelan were swept away to an unknown location.
David took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
Yunxi was a member of the Ghost Clan, and Fifteenth Heaven was her homeland. He should know how to survive.
Jiang Xuelan’s strength was immeasurable; few people on all of Fifteenth Heaven were capable of injuring him.
Instead, he was the one who should be worried.
He checked his wounds; the injuries weren’t fatal, but they weren’t light either.
Considering the regeneration ability of the Golden Dragon bloodline, it would likely take two or three days to fully recover.
Just when he was about to look for a place to treat his wounds, a sound suddenly came from a distance.
It was the sound of clanking metal, mixed with human screams and screams.
A fight broke out.
David hesitated for a moment, then stood up and walked in the direction where the sound came from.
He wasn’t the type to meddle in other people’s affairs, but this was Fifteenth Heaven, and he knew nothing about it.
Seeking the help of local residents to get a clear picture of the situation is much better than trying to figure it out on your own without direction.
He walked for about the time it takes an incense stick to burn, crossed a small hill, and looked at the view below.
Beneath the hill was a dry river bed, the scene of a one-sided massacre.
On one side were soldiers wearing black armor, about a dozen in number.
Their armor was tattered and covered in knife cuts and bloodstains, and their weapons were of varying quality; some carried knives, some swords, and others spears.
They gave shelter to a group of frail old men, women, and children, who huddled in a corner of the river bed, shivering from the cold.
