Chapter 4044: Chapter 4044: Even If It Means Death, It Must Not Happen! (Fifth Update)
Above the sky, the void suddenly shattered, and Ye Chen charged out riding the blood dragon.
At this moment, Ye Chen sensed the Divine Might of the Nine Blood Moons in the sky, saw Ren Feifan, saw Su Mohan, and saw the doomsday scene of this East Cold Abyss. His gaze finally locked onto the entrance of a passage that had shrunk to accommodate only one person.
Ye Chen had too many questions at heart right now, but he didn’t have time to ask, he could only stare at the entrance of the passage.
The entrance was rapidly shrinking, time was running out, Ye Chen couldn’t help but shout softly: "Blood dragon, faster!"
"Alright!"
The blood dragon suddenly responded, its dragon body suddenly shattered, blood and flesh splattering everywhere; this is the result of the blood dragon’s overload of power, causing great harm to itself but enabling a faster speed.
In an instant, the blood dragon’s speed sharply increased, and just as the passage was about to completely close, the blood dragon reached the entrance.
"Thanks, wait for me!"
Ye Chen shouted softly to the blood dragon, and the next moment, using the inertia of the blood dragon’s extreme speed, he crashed into the passage.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, the passage closed completely.
Ren Feifan and Su Mohan watched as the blood dragon, shattered with broken scales and dripping with blood, fell from the sky. Ren Feifan waved his hand, and the Blood Moon Light caught the blood dragon.
At the same time, Ren Feifan frowned as he looked at the closed entrance.
Now, the passage is completely closed; wanting to come out is impossible unless Wei Ying fully awakens and successfully turns the Extreme Cold Netherworld Prison into Freedom Heaven, then with the power of the Sacred Origin Heart and the Sacred Origin Heavenly Mysterious Array Plate, can break everything open and rush out of the ruined East Cold Abyss.
But achieving all this is nearly impossible, so all hope can only rest on Ye Chen, hoping he can create another miracle.
In the dark and deep East Cold Abyss Ruins, Ye Chen felt the surrounding cold spiritual energy, endless evil and chaotic will rampaging and approaching.
In such circumstances, Ye Chen wanted to activate his power, the infinite spiritual energy within him to drive away these troubles, but was shocked to find that in this place, spiritual energy couldn’t be used at all.
The cold spiritual energy swept over him, making his blood feel like it was freezing and his joints solidifying, Ye Chen’s gaze turned cold, soul power surged out, driving the approaching cold spiritual energy and evil will away.
If Ye Chen’s divine soul wasn’t strong, he wouldn’t be able to last long stepping through these ruins, as being unable to use spiritual energy in such extreme weather is nearly a death sentence; currently, the East Cold Abyss Ruins are like a real hell.
The cold spiritual energy continued rampaging, the boundless cold kept sweeping, Ye Chen’s soul power struggled to support and protect his physical body.
Yet at this moment, unable to use spiritual energy, Ye Chen wandered in the endless darkness for an unknown amount of time, walking until he felt tired, yet he couldn’t find Wei Ying’s whereabouts.
Without the ability to use spiritual energy, no divine power or spells could be cast; Ye Chen felt like he was about to lose himself in this endless dark world, let alone saving Wei Ying.
Just then, Ye Chen’s heart trembled slightly; he sensed a disturbance in the reincarnation bloodline and faintly detected a weak aura, the only life aura in this boundless darkness.
Obviously, under the East Cold Abyss Ruins, only Wei Ying is pressed here; although Ye Chen couldn’t discern who this life aura belonged to, he could be sure in his heart that it was Wei Ying.
"Wait for me, I will definitely find you!"
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered, in boundless darkness, following the weak aura sensed by the reincarnation bloodline, advancing continually.
Step by step, Ye Chen walked to the end of the aura, only to find no path ahead, just relentless cold ice—seeming to have reached the end of this dark world.
"This..."
Ye Chen’s expression turned serious as he discovered that the faint aura had become full, faintly able to sense the mark belonging to Wei Ying.
This indicates Wei Ying must be beyond this endless cold ice, and the ice before him is presumably wall-like, separating him from Wei Ying.
Ye Chen could only suspect this, but he didn’t know he was completely right.
Wei Ying’s location isn’t actually in the East Cold Abyss Ruins but beneath them, in the even colder, terrifying Extreme Cold Netherworld Prison.
And now the East Cold Abyss has collapsed into ruins, the entrance to the Extreme Cold Netherworld Prison is filled and blocked by endless cold ice, so Ye Chen finds only endless ice ahead of him.
Ye Chen wants to find Wei Ying, he can only pierce through the endless ice to enter the Extreme Cold Netherworld Prison; yet in this dark world ruin, spiritual energy cannot be used.
"Can’t use spiritual energy? Then use physical body strength; no matter what, I must save this mysterious woman!"
Ye Chen thought determinedly.
The next moment, Ye Chen, without hesitation, slammed a palm onto the ice, only for the ice to splinter into several fragments, whereas his arm throbbed painfully.
The ice here has a history of thousands of years, long since hardened beyond shattering, even using weapons won’t break it, let alone using his physical strength.
Currently, Ye Chen stands facing the rock-like ice, his spiritual energy unusable; he can’t even summon weapons like the Slaughter Sword—the physical strength is his only choice.
In such circumstances, Ye Chen feared nothing or hesitated, he frantically struck the ice layer with palm after palm, shattering the rock-solid ice layer piece by piece, countless ice shards flying, Ye Chen continuously delving deeper into the ice layer.
"Bang bang bang!"
Ye Chen kept frantically striking the ice layer, embedding ten fingers deeply into it, then prying chunks of cold ice out.
Ye Chen’s hands were already covered in blood, flesh turning into a blurred mass, seemingly rotten, with even the white bones visible.
Fingers aching terribly, Ye Chen used his body, shoulders, elbows, knees, furiously colliding with the solid ice.
Ye Chen endured all costs, suffered endless pain, only to break this ice layer, find Wei Ying, and save her from the East Cold Abyss Ruins.
It is unknown how long this lasted, Ye Chen fought the ice layer with his physical form, both hands turning into bare white bones, without a shred of flesh, shockingly gruesome, yet frighteningly terrifying.
Fortunately, his powerful vitality allowed Ye Chen to recover rapidly!
If not for such vitality, he would unquestionably die!
Ye Chen’s shoulders also cracked, elbows broke, knees fractured—all to break the ice layer, he paid the utmost painful price.
"I’m about to succeed!"
Ye Chen’s blood flowed only to be instantly frozen; during his continual striking of the ice layer, Ye Chen’s consciousness nearly lost itself, unaware of how thick the ice layer was, knowing only he’d seem to strike for countless ages, fighting this ice layer for thousands of eras.
