Chapter 2204 - Temporal Vortex

Chapter 2204: Temporal Vortex

Violent streams of energy and spatial storms filled the spatial crack, along with terrifying temporal vortices. There was danger as far as the eye could see. Even the slightest carelessness could result in damnation. Even Primordial realm experts had to be careful and cautious here.

Otherwise, even Primordial realm experts would die here.

There was a fist-sized damaged tower covered in slashes within this danger-ridden spatial crack. It turned into a faint streak of golden light as it charged through the various powerful streams of energy and space-distorting storms recklessly. It advanced in an unstoppable manner.

It was as if the spatial crack that was enough to cause many Primordial realm experts to pale and tread lightly posed no threat to the tiny tower at all.

The tiny tower would only avoid the temporal vortices that could twist time.

Naturally, it was the Anatta Tower.

Jian Chen and Kai Ya currently sat in the Anatta Tower with their eyes closed. Jian Chen’s entire mind had fused with the Anatta Tower completely as he used all his efforts to control the Anatta Tower’s flight through the spatial crack.

He knew that the Azure Peng King would catch up very soon, so he dared not be careless. Even when they had successfully entered the spatial crack, which gave them a special advantage as the laws were chaotic and incomplete, weakening the Azure Peng King’s abilities drastically, he still could not stop worrying.

As a result, he did not even try to heal. He spent all his efforts on piloting the Anatta Tower.

Kai Ya sat beside Jian Chen with her eyes closed. She also sensed the situation outside the Anatta Tower through her own method.

The Anatta Tower was an impressive god artifact. Its interior had become its own, independent miniature world. Logically speaking, no one should be able to sense the situation outside from within the tower apart from Jian Chen who had refined a fraction of the tower.

Yet, Kai Ya was an exception. Although she had not refined the Anatta Tower like Jian Chen or even gained any control over it before, she could clearly sense everything outside despite being in the tower.

“Strange. Why do I feel like I can control the tower like Jian Chen? This really is a strange feeling,” Kai Ya felt extremely puzzled. She completely had no idea why she would feel that.

At that moment, she even felt an urge, an urge to try to control the Anatta Tower. However, when she saw how Jian Chen was piloting the Anatta Tower, she could only suppress this urge.

“I seem to have a connection with the tower that even I can’t explain. This feeling didn’t exist in the beginning. As my strength rapidly increased, this feeling slowly appeared, and it’s becoming stronger and stronger...” Kai Ya furrowed her brows, but no matter how she racked her brain, she still had no idea in the end.

At this moment, Kai Ya’s heart’s suddenly tightened. In that instance, she felt like her soul had strengthened, where her connection with the Anatta Tower grew stronger. A sliver of her consciousness seemed to drift out of the Anatta Tower, allowing her to see an azure streak of light pursue them with unbelievable speed. Currently, it was still extremely far behind them.

“It’s the Azure Peng King. He’s actually this fast...” Kai Ya’s heart tightened. She opened her eyes and looked at Jian Chen and knew that he had not discovered the Azure Peng King.

However, the Azure Peng King was just too fast. He had turned into an azure peng that was only two metres in size. With a flap of his wings, he could cross a tremendous distance. Space seemed to fold up before him. When Kai Ya discovered him, he was still hundreds of million kilometres away from the Anatta Tower, but in just a few seconds, he appeared a few million kilometres away, and he was rapidly growing closer.

“Oh no, the Azure Peng King is coming,” Kai Ya immediately warned Jian Chen.

Jian Chen opened his eyes when he heard that. He glanced at her suspiciously. He was aware of the outside world at all times. It was impossible for anything that happened within a range of several hundred thousand kilometres to escape his senses, yet he had failed to discover the Azure Peng King.

Even though he was very confused about how Kai Ya was able to determine that the Azure Peng King was coming, he trusted her completely, so without any hesitation, he changed the direction of the Anatta Tower and headed towards an even more dangerous region.

Just as the Anatta Tower had turned, a huge hand completely condensed from energy suddenly appeared. With terrifying might, it grabbed at the space where the Anatta Tower was prior.

Due to being so close, Jian Chen saw the hand that had suddenly appeared with great clarity as well. This made his face change. If he had not changed the direction of the Anatta Tower in time, the tower really would have ended up in the grasp of the energy hand.

Jian Chen understood that although the Azure Peng King was unable to destroy the Anatta Tower, he was a Grand Prime who stood at the apex after all. As a result, his abilities were so exceptional that they would be facing a horrible situation if the tower ended up in his hands.

Afterwards, Jian Chen advanced by zig-zagging. He went where danger was present, emboldened by the toughness of the Anatta Tower.

“Hmph, there has never been someone who has escaped from me once they’ve caught my eye. Even if you choose a special place like this and restrict my abilities to a certain extent, you still can’t escape from me,” the Azure Peng King sneered in the form of a small bird behind them. Even though spatial cracks were enough to threaten Primordial realm experts, he was an existence who stood at the apex of the Saints’ World. He had great capabilities and was extremely powerful. There was nothing in spatial cracks that could pose a threat to him. It would only obstruct him slightly at most.

The Azure Peng King flapped his wings, and immediately, they glowed with azure light, which turned into a violent gust of wind.

The gale possessed unimaginable power. All the chaotic streams of energy and spatial storms that blocked the Azure Peng King’s way collapsed from the gale like a pile of leaves. Space shook violently.

The residual power of the gale caught up with the Anatta Tower, causing it to tremble and totter. It was tossed around constantly in space. Jian Chen struggled to control it.

The Anatta Tower immediately slowed down.

The Azure Peng King, on the other hand, used this opportunity to close the distance. From over a million kilometres away, he arrived around a thousand kilometres away from the tower.

In the Anatta Tower, Jian Chen’s face sank. Then he shifted his target towards a nearby temporal vortex and immediately made up his mind, charging over with the Anatta Tower.

Jian Chen had always feared the temporal vortices within spatial cracks. Even with the Anatta Tower, he dared not tread in them.

This was because he had already witnessed the power of temporal vortices in the past. He deeply understood that the flow of time within them was extremely unstable. He was afraid that several tens of thousand years would pass in an instant if he fell into one, where the outside world had already changed when he emerged again.

Or perhaps time would run backwards and change him into a newly-born infant, the very basis of life, or even to nothingness.

But now, he was out of choices with the Azure Peng King’s close pursuit.

Swish! The Anatta Tower directly entered the temporal vortex as a faint golden streak of light.
