ShiYan sat on the wooden boat spending sleepless nights trying to perceive the Northern Dipper net, immersing his mind in deep thought. He always used his Star Martial Spirit to connect with the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, and then borrowed the force from the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper to condense into the Northern Dipper net.
Gradually, he had a deeper understanding of the creation of the Northern Dipper net. Within three minutes, he could borrow the star power to condense seven meteorites out of the Northern Dipper net.
Once the condensation of the Northern Dipper net was successful and he could create the spiritual connection with star power, he could then comfortably control and attack any target he wished.
Once the seven meteorites collided with each other and burst out, the power generated was enough to injure the Sky Realm warrior severely. Although their power was no match for the combination of the three living forms the Ice Cold Flame, the Holy Spirit God, and the Earth Flame, he could freely use it without worrying that it would drain out.
The most important thing was that he somehow didn’t feel the current Northern Dipper net at its ultimate form.
ShiYan had a premonition that the more profound his comprehension of the meaning of the stars was, the more powerful the Northern Dipper net would be.
One day, the wooden boat suddenly entered a dark, boundless sea area. The strange and mysterious scene around had woken him up.
Raising his head to look at the gray misty fog, he felt the peculiarity; he then suddenly released his soul consciousness to observe his surroundings.
As soon as ShiYan’s soul consciousness left his Sea of Consciousness, it was instantly tied up as if mud was binding it. It didn’t dissipate, but it couldn’t reflect the surrounding environment to the Sea of Consciousness either.
In this sea area, the murky fog shrouded over his head like a huge cage, which seemed to have strange magic that prevented any warrior who entered this area from using his soul consciousness to sense the situation.
With a slight change in his face, ShiYan rested his mind and meditated. He then suddenly realized that the connection between the Star Martial Spirit and the stars in the sky had been cut off.
He no longer felt the power of the stars in the sky, and he couldn’t borrow that power to look through the misty fog. He thus figured out where he was.
The Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist.
It was the extreme eastern edge of the Endless Sea, which was the most mysterious and evil sea area, enveloped by a thick fog for billions of years.
Inside this Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, soul consciousness couldn’t work. Other powers of the Heaven and Earth were also affected by this dark magnetic field and thus had no effect here.
This mysterious sea area could influence warriors’ souls, making them fall into strange fantasies.
Heaven and Earth aura didn’t exist here either.
Standing on the wooden boat, closing his eyes to sense around for a while, ShiYan was eventually certain that he had come to his desired destination.
On the Sun Island, Xia XinYan used to tell him about both mysterious and strange things in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. She said that behind the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist was the center of the Grace Mainland, where many mighty beasts dwelled. Many strange treasures of Heaven and Earth had disappeared, and many mysterious secrets existed here. It was a good place for warriors to cultivate themselves in following the dark path.
The current situation of the Endless Sea was very complicated. Warriors from all over were searching for his whereabouts. After the division of the three living forms, his real realm was only the Nirvana Realm. Although he was confident that he could endure the Sky Realm warriors, he couldn’t withstand God Realm warriors.
Therefore, he had wisely decided to avoid the danger for now and not participate in the chaos in the Endless Sea.
He wanted to enhance his body strength, and thus he was determined to go to the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist before his mutation was complete. On the one hand, he wanted to take advantage of the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist’s environment to sharpen his own strength; on the other hand, he hoped that he could find Xia XinYan.
Previously, when he and Xia XinYan had separated, Xia XinYan had gone with Ye ZhangFeng and Lin YaQi who were from the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist.
He had a premonition that Xia XinYan was still staying with them in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. Hence, he came here with the hope that he could see his lover again.
The wooden boat was moving slowly on the sea.
Quietly sensing around, ShiYan’s face gradually changed. His pupils glinted with surprise.
Without Heaven and Earth aura and under the impact of the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, other forces of Heaven and Earth couldn’t exist in this noxious mist. So, if he consumed all of his Profound Qi, how could he supplement them?
To attain Profound Qi, it required Heaven and Earth aura.
With that thought, ShiYan shuddered and hurriedly sent his spirit into the Blood Vein Ring and took a high-graded Profound Crystal.
Earlier that year, before entering the Chasm Battlefield, YangLuo had brought hundreds of high-graded Profound Crystals and given them to him. He still kept these pure crystals in the Blood Vein Ring, but because his Mystery Martial Spirit could recover its power through murder, he rarely used these pure crystals.
However, when entering such a strange place like the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist where Heaven and Earth aura didn’t exist, he suddenly remembered the pure crystals in the Blood Vein Ring.
Holding a chunk of pure crystal in his hand, ShiYan activated his power, trying to absorb Heaven and Earth aura inside it.
Strange things happened.
The Heaven and Earth auras that had just been taken out of the pure crystal were influenced by the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. They evaporated instantly, not able to turn into condensed aura for him to absorb.
Not effective!
ShiYan’s face became dignified. The idea of leaving the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist appeared in his mind.
According to Xia XinYan, there were various kinds of strange and dangerous things in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist where beasts raged fiercely.
In this place, the only thing he could rely on was the force in his body.
If he couldn’t supplement Profound Qi, he would consume all of them really soon.
If things kept going like this, he would be exhausted sooner or later and have no way to survive.
Hence, he had to consider things more carefully.
While he was hesitating, he suddenly raised his head looking around and immediately realized that he seemed to be lost.
There were no Sun, Moon, or Stars to identify the directions here. Surrounding him was the dark sea without any obstacles, reefs or islands.
And the seawater under his feet was not calm. He bowed his head to look and realized that the water flow kept changing, and thus his boat kept moving. He didn’t know how many times his boat had changed directions.
In this case, even if he wanted to go back, he was uncertain that he could find the same way to return. Thus, there was only one way, which was going to continue forward going further inside this area, reaching the center of the Grace Mainland.
ShiYan forced a wry smile and subconsciously shook his head.
As God’s will was so, it seemed that returning was now impossible. He then had to continue moving forward, hoping to see the mysteries that could surprise him inside the mist.
Thinking in silence for a while, he became relaxed and tried to adapt to the current situation. He sat down, no longer sending his Profound Qi to the boat, but instead, let the flow of water drive it freely.
Without wasting his soul consciousness and Profound Qi, he held his breath, looked straight ahead, while calmly waiting, being aware of any special circumstances.
Without the sun, moon, stars, or concept of time, all he could do was just sit still and let the boat flutter freely on the sea without any idea of where he was heading.
One day later, ShiYan’s eyes brightened up.
His wooden boat suddenly floated up into the air and slowly flew forward.
The strange thing was he wasn’t using any force.
In the thick misty fog ahead, he could vaguely see a huge black shadow. This shadow was suspended in the air like a magnificent mountain, which gave people a strange, insecure feeling.
With a tense mind, ShiYan was fully cautious. His eyes flashed up, looking at the huge black shadow ahead. He didn’t know what it was.
The wooden boat slowly approached as the silhouette of the shadow gradually became clearer.
It was a mountain indeed.
This mountain was hundreds of miles high, strangely floating above the sea, suspended in the air. There were plants, tree, flowers, but no beasts and other creatures.
It was unknown where this mountain came from. It kept floating in the sky like an air balloon, not seemingly affected by gravity.
ShiYan was extremely astonished.
Quietly sensing around, he immediately realized that there was no gravity here. Not only that, but the sea under his feet also emitted a faint gray smoke which seemed to have some force that made the wooden boat fly up to the sky.
He instantly decided to leave the boat and after having consumed just a little bit of Profound Qi, he already arrived on the mountain peak.
Sitting atop the mountain, ShiYan looked down, observing this miraculous place.
A colorful light beam suddenly flew over from the mountain in front of him. ShiYan watched attentively for a moment and realized that this beam of light had definitely been released from a warrior.
According to the direction of where that light beam came from, he knew that the place was thousands of meters away. However, because of the ineffectiveness of his soul consciousness in this area, together with the thick fog, he couldn’t see the warrior who had shot out that beam of light nor knew the opponent’s cultivation base.
He continued sitting for a while, observing the mountain and then thought that he should go and check what or who it was. He didn’t understand much about the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, so if he could meet that warrior, he would have many of his questions answered.
With that thought in mind, he immediately used his Profound Qi to move toward its direction with moderate speed.
