Chapter 1493: Earth Visual Heaven Auditory
Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon
Deep in the starry cosmos, a figure emanating gray mist was traversing through the stellar fragments. He was none other than Primordial Chaos Daolord.
He had long recovered from the injury Yi Yun had inflicted on him, but the humiliation he suffered could only be washed clean with Yi Yun's fresh blood.
By relying on his Primordial Chaos laws, Primordial Chaos Daolord experienced the restriction of the starry cosmos less than other Divine Lords. Although his flying speed was incomparable to what it was outside, he was in no way slow.
Primordial Chaos Daolord failed to discover any trace of Yi Yun after flying a particular distance but he had expected that. It would instead have been abnormal if Yi Yun had not hidden himself after entering the starry cosmos.
Once Yi Yun used his concealment arts, he was even harder to find in the starry cosmos.
Perhaps when Primordial Chaos Daolord sought opportunities in the future, Yi Yun might be hiding right beside him to snatch them. As long as that hidden risk was present, Primordial Chaos Daolord could not feel at ease enough to search the stellar cosmos.
Primordial Chaos Daolord stopped and coldly swept his gaze ahead of him.
Following that, a strange aura slowly emanated from his body.
This aura formed countless threads that radiated slowly out from him.
Following that, Primordial Chaos Daolord suddenly extended his hand and continued producing more than ten seals.
While producing the seals, a tiny bit of sweat effused his forehead.
This art was strenuous to use even in the outside world, to say nothing of using it in the restrictive cosmos.
And as Primordial Chaos Daolord produced one seal after another, all sorts of invisible threads seemed to weave into an all-encompassing net that spread outwards while he stood right in the middle of the net.
After finishing the final seal, Primordial Chaos Daolord closed his eyes and spread out his arms. There were threads that could be faintly seen on all ten of his fingers, and as he moved his fingers, the all-encompassing net would gently vibrate.
"Search!"
Instantly, Primordial Chaos Daolord's psyche coursed through these threads and extended out to extremely distant areas in every possible direction.
This was the Earth Visual Heaven Auditory mystic art. Primordial Chaos Daolord had paid quite a significant price to cast this mystic art.
His psyche would suffer slight damage and it would also drain a sizable amount of his Yuan Qi.
And yet, Primordial Chaos Daolord was already casting the Earth Visual Heaven Auditory for the fourth time. Every time he cast it, he needed to rest for two hours. After a slight recovery, he would switch to another spot to continue the search. All of this effort he was expending to find Yi Yun.
Every time he cast the Earth Visual Heaven Auditory mystic art, he could search an expansive region of the stellar cosmos. This time, when Primordial Chaos Daolord's psyche swept across a stellar fragment, he sensed something slightly different about it.
Instantly, Primordial Chaos Daolord's eyes opened. His gray eyes flashed ominously.
"Found you."
In that stellar fragment, Yi Yun jolted awake from his trance-like cultivation.
At that instant, a cold and sinister aura had swept past him. It felt like a venomous snake slithering towards him.
He immediately realized that it was Primordial Chaos Daolord!
He never expected Primordial Chaos Daolord to find him in the vast stellar cosmos while he hid inside the stellar fragment.
Without any hesitation, Yi Yun charged straight out of the stellar fragment and immediately fled into the distance.
But at that moment, a beam flew towards him at an astounding speed.
Before the beam reached Yi Yun, it produced a gigantic hand phantom that seemed to instantly traverse space to come pressing down at Yi Yun.
Simultaneously, a potent binding force immediately enveloped Yi Yun.
Primordial Chaos Daolord did not even bother engaging Yi Yun in senseless banter. He wanted to cripple Yi Yun as soon as possible!
As long as the gigantic hand could restrain Yi Yun for even a few seconds, Primordial Chaos Daolord would arrive. And when that happened, Yi Yun would be meat for the slaughter.
Yi Yun's expression changed when he faced the gigantic hand.
He sensed that as the gigantic hand came at him, the surrounding space was being deformed by it. Also, there was a strange suction force that constantly emitted from the hand.
If he was a warrior with slightly weaker strength, this incoming strike would probably have reduced him to mush immediately.
But even with Yi Yun's present strength, withstanding the strike was absolutely not a breeze.
Yi Yun's eyes focused as he looked at the gigantic hand. Just like how he had seen the true world through the Chaos Qi, the true form of the gigantic hand appeared in Yi Yun's vision.
The gigantic hand's energy, along with spatial dimension laws, were interspersed together in a bid to grind Yi Yun to death.
Meanwhile, Primordial Chaos Daolord was rapidly flying towards him.
It was at that moment Yi Yun took action.
A cold beam flashed in his hand as took out Mirage Snow.
"Slash!"
When the sword flash appeared, it looked like a crescent that coldly scattered across the starry cosmos.
And this sword flash of forlorn beauty stabbed straight towards the gigantic hand. The sword flash was highly disproportionate in size compared to the gigantic hand. It was like an infant trying to fend off a giant.
"You overestimate yourself and think too highly of your strength." Primordial Chaos Daolord's eyes were ice-cold.
But at that moment, Primordial Chaos Daolord's expression changed drastically.
The sword flash could not have destroyed the gigantic hand to begin with, but when it stabbed the hand, Primordial Chaos Daolord suddenly felt that it was difficult to control the hand.
The gigantic hand froze and immediately following that, a crack appeared.
Ka Ka Ka!
Even more cracks appeared at a constant rate. Even though Primordial Chaos Daolord was frantically attempting to control the gigantic hand, it was a lost cause like a breach of flood waters!
Primordial Chaos Daolord looked at Yi Yun in disbelief. Yi Yun's strike had managed to tear through his laws!
Unless Yi Yun's understanding of spatial dimension laws was higher or more profound than his, this was clearly impossible.
Back when he was pursuing Yi Yun, he had constantly ripped open space and Yi Yun was only capable of burning his blood essence to flee. This implied that his attainment in spatial dimension laws was far inferior to his.
So what was going on now?
Had Yi Yun reached a stage where he no longer needed to be well-versed in laws to slice open his attack?
At that moment, Yi Yun immediately turned around after destroying the gigantic hand and flew deep into the starry cosmos.
His expression was somewhat ugly. It was not as easy slicing apart the laws as Primordial Chaos Daolord imagined.
However, his eyes were coruscating with excitement. His strike had been a product of luck but it had actually succeeded!
If he failed, he would likely have paid a terrible price and still be unable to escape from danger.
But now, he had already escaped Primordial Chaos Daolord's restraint and was fleeing at full speed.
When Primordial Chaos Daolord saw Yi Yun's escaping figure, the astonished look on his face vanished instantly.
The look in his eyes turned heavy as his ice-cold voice penetrated the void and entered Yi Yun's ears. "Are you still trying to flee? Unfortunately, that trick of burning your blood essence is useless in here."
Even though Yi Yun had sliced through his spatial dimension laws, his flying speed was far inferior to his. Here, with the Primordial Chaos laws restraining them, Yi Yun's strength was greatly reduced! Even if he burned his blood essence, it was insufficient to bridge the gap in their strength.
But at that moment, Primordial Chaos Daolord suddenly saw a gray mist appear around Yi Yun's surroundings.
Yi Yun's finger beam from before was enough to let Primordial Chaos Daolord know that Yi Yun had some understanding of Primordial Chaos laws, since that strike contained nebulous Primordial Chaos.
But what Yi Yun was presently doing still far exceeded his expectations. Yi Yun appeared to have rather deep insight into Primordial Chaos laws!
But even so, it was useless. The difference in strength between the two of them remained stark.
Immediately following that, the gray mist around Yi Yun gradually solidified and began expanding. Finally, it seemed to form an independent space that enveloped Yi Yun.
It was a Primordial Chaos space!
It constantly expanded, becoming like a boat that moved at an increasingly easy pace through the cosmos.
By using the Primordial Chaos space to forge a path forward, it made Yi Yun nearly unaffected by the Primordial Chaos laws' restriction.
Upon seeing this happen, Primordial Chaos Daolord was alarmed. How was this possible!?
He had been able to come into contact with Primordial Chaos laws due to a special opportunity. He once found a numinous treasure that had been left behind in ancient times. Inside the numinous treasure were sealed Primordial Chaos laws, and it was for that reason that he could stand out among so many geniuses. He was peerless at his realm, as evidenced when he left his name on the ancient battlefield's World Monolith!
But how did this ordinary Divine Lord have such an opportunity!? And even if he had obtained one, the Primordial Chaos laws were abstruse. Gaining any insight into them was an exceedingly difficult task. Furthermore, once this path of cultivating in the Primordial Chaos laws was taken, one needed to condense a nine-leaf Dao fruit in the Dao Manifestation realm!
Back then, in order to condense a nine-leaf Dao fruit for the Primordial Chaos laws, he had waited several centuries to fortify his foundation!
Yet, this person's Primordial Chaos laws were not inferior to his. And he did not appear old at all. This made Primordial Chaos Daolord, whose title had Primordial Chaos in it, feel disbelief and incredulity.
He instantly recalled that the person had managed to destroy the Massive Chaos Godfiend Array in the Fey God Tomb precisely because he had grasped such profound Primordial Chaos laws. And the reason why he possessed so much nebulous Primordial Chaos had to be that he had found Yi Yun's corpse!
He was very likely a person who had cultivated in the Primordial Chaos laws to begin with. After he obtained the opportunities left behind by Yi Yun, his strength had improved by leaps and bounds.
Upon coming to this realization, Primordial Chaos Daolord fumed. This person had taken the opportunity from Yi Yun and had to be someone astonishing. If he could obtain it, becoming a Godly Monarch was only a matter of time!
It was not that Primordial Chaos Daolord could not connect the Yi Yun in front of him with the corpse he was looking for, but that he was working with information he already knew about Yi Yun. Yi Yun was only a young man at the mid-stage Supremacy level. His age was likely only three to four hundred years old.
Primordial Chaos Daolord refused to believe that a three to four hundred year old Supremacy could have the time to condense a nine-leaf Primordial Chaos Dao fruit and cultivate to the strength of a Divine Lord, becoming able to injure even him.
"Perfect. I have no need to continue searching for Yi Yun's corpse. All I need to do is extract the nebulous Primordial Chaos from your body," said Primordial Chaos Daolord coldly.
Even if Yi Yun was fast, how could Primordial Chaos Daolord let him go? He was now even more eager to capture Yi Yun.
The two engaged in a chase as they flew deeper into the cosmos.
