Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 653: Outside the Spatial Turbulence

"Pfft." Xiao Yi suddenly spat out a mouthful of bloody blood, his face deathly pale.

"How terrifying this aura is."

Just now, that woman hadn’t used any special methods.

It was merely an aura that made his Qi-Blood surge violently and directly injured him.

That aura was unfathomable.

Xiao Yi even felt what he saw was not the woman, but an ocean, a profound endless night sky.

Beside him, Shangguan Xiyue fell seated on the ground, her face deathly pale, with blood overflowing from the corner of her mouth, her expression filled with panic.

"How... how terrifying this aura..."

Her eyes covered endless distances.

It was through her eyes that Xiao Yi could see the scene of that distant sect.

And because of this, she felt the woman’s aura head-on even more.

That aura even made Xiao Yi feel a wave of fear, let alone her who was directly facing it.

"Don’t be afraid," Xiao Yi helped her up and softly comforted.

"No... no..." Shangguan Xiyue shivered all over.

"That aura... it’s so strong..."

"Don’t..."

Shangguan Xiyue cried out in alarm and suddenly embraced Xiao Yi, holding him very tightly.

"It’s alright now." Xiao Yi was initially startled, then whispered comfortingly.

He knew how powerful the woman’s aura was.

The spying effect of Shangguan Xiyue’s eyes, which confronted the aura directly, was akin to being deeply trapped in an abyss.

That overwhelming swallowing feeling was more than an ordinary person could bear.

After a while, Shangguan Xiyue gradually stabilized her emotions, breathing lightly.

"Is it alright now?" Xiao Yi asked lightly.

"Hmm." Shangguan Xiyue nodded her head.

For some reason, the chest of the man in front of her gave her an inexplicable sense of safety and warmth.

It was not any affection, just an intuition.

She couldn’t describe that feeling, only feeling that even if she had faced a real abyss earlier, the man in front of her could have saved her.

It was a feeling of reliability, of strength.

This strength did not come from the man’s cultivation.

But from something indescribable about him.

"If it’s alright, Miss Xiyue might want to relax your grip a bit," Xiao Yi said gently.

"Ah." Shangguan Xiyue then realized she was still tightly embracing Xiao Yi.

"My apologies."

Shangguan Xiyue quickly retracted her hands and awkwardly smiled, then glanced at Xiao Yi.

She had to admit, the man in front of her was very handsome and extraordinary, exuding an ethereal charisma that dazzled her.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but blush.

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly, seeing Shangguan Xiyue’s face turning red, and asked, "Is there still discomfort, Miss Xiyue?"

"May I check on you?"

He was a high-grade alchemist, and he also had questions for Shangguan Xiyue.

"No... there’s no need." Shangguan Xiyue shook her head, returning to normal.

"That’s good." Xiao Yi nodded and asked, "That sect just now, where exactly is it?"

It’s actually Shangguan Xiyue’s eyes that truly peer into the distant faraway.

Xiao Yi only followed her gaze to spy together.

Shangguan Xiyue extended her hand, pointing ahead.

Ahead was that region effusing flowing light and chaotic, powerful force.

There, at the end of the Endless Black Sea, appeared to be a barrier stretching across heaven and earth, boundless.

It was precisely the spatial turbulence.

"Beyond that spatial turbulence," Shangguan Xiyue said solemnly.

Xiao Yi nodded.

He knew that, having followed Shangguan Xiyue’s gaze into the far distance, it surpassed the spatial turbulence to that distant place.

"How far is it from here?" Xiao Yi asked.

This was what Xiao Yi really wanted to ask.

"Very far," Shangguan Xiyue replied.

"Can you be more precise?" Xiao Yi furrowed his brow.

Shangguan Xiyue shook her head, "No, very far... very far... so distant that I can’t be certain."

"No," Shangguan Xiyue added, "I should say, that sort of distance has already exceeded what I can comprehend."

Exceeded comprehension?

How far could that possibly be?

Xiao Yi fell silent for a while, then clasped his hands together and said, "I am grateful for Miss Xiyue’s assistance this time."

"If you need anything in the future, feel free to seek me."

"Farewell."

Shangguan Xiyue also clasped her hands together.

With a flash, Xiao Yi turned and left.

Even if he didn’t know exactly how far, it didn’t matter anymore.

He just needed to know that the Holy Moon Sect was outside this chaotic space flow.

No matter how far, he would eventually reach it.

...

At this moment, Xiao Yi had left the East Sea Fortress, heading back to the Flame Martial Kingdom.

He needed to figure out what was beyond the chaotic space flow.

That chaotic space flow was left from the Ancient Times when Human Martial Artists battled with Abyss Demon Beasts.

When it came to ancient secrets, no one knew more than the Hall Master.

And a few days ago, the Hall Masters of the Demon Hunting Hall had left the fortress.

Flying swiftly, it took only a few hours for Xiao Yi to return to the outskirts of the Royal Capital.

He found a secluded place, changed his clothes, put on the Ghost Mask, and headed back to the Demon Hunting Hall.

...

Inside the office of the Demon Hunting Hall, Hall Master.

Xiao Yi knocked on the door, then pushed it open and entered.

The Hall Master, as usual, was reviewing documents at his desk.

Seeing Xiao Yi’s arrival, the Hall Master seemed somewhat surprised.

"Oh? You scamp, it’s only been a couple of months, eh? Had enough fun outside already?" the Hall Master asked with a smile.

Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Hall Master, I have come to ask about something."

"Oh? What is it?" the Hall Master put down his documents, evidently intrigued.

Xiao Yi paused, then said seriously, "This world, does it have other continents?"

The Hall Master was taken aback, clearly surprised by Xiao Yi’s question.

After a long pause, the Hall Master shook his head, "No."

"No?" Xiao Yi frowned. "Is the Hall Master lying to me?"

The Hall Master shook his head. "Indeed not. Why would I lie to you?"

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi looked doubtful.

The Hall Master’s expression was serious, not at all like he was lying.

Could it be that the Hall Master also didn’t know about the places beyond the chaotic space flow?

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yi decided to voice his inner doubts.

Upon hearing this, the Hall Master’s face showed shock, "Beyond the chaotic space flow? Who told you these things?"

"No one told me. I discovered them inadvertently," Xiao Yi said, his face brightening as the Hall Master’s reaction confirmed that the Hall Master knew of what lay beyond the chaotic space flow.

"Inadvertently discovered?" the Hall Master frowned.

"Hall Master knows about the other realms beyond the chaotic space flow, right?" Xiao Yi asked.

The Hall Master nodded. "I know, but I had intended to tell you those secrets later."

"Well, since you’re asking now, I might as well tell you now."

"Sit."

Xiao Yi nodded and sat down in a chair nearby.

Clearly, the secrets the Hall Master was about to reveal were not simple.

"You once asked me, what exactly is the Life and Death Barrier," the Hall Master said solemnly.

"Yes," Xiao Yi nodded.

"Today, I will tell you about these matters," the Hall Master said seriously, looking at Xiao Yi.

...

The second update.
