High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation
Chapter 139 The Dilapidated Hall, the Human Phantom
There is no day or night in the turbulent flow of spacetime.
Chen Yuan silently counted in his mind that almost a whole day had passed.
The shadowy figure continued to lead the way, occasionally darting into the spatial rift to explore, then emerging again to shake its head.
Ming Sha had gone from being tense to numb, squatting down next to Chen Yuan with his vertical pupils half-open and half-closed, like a worker forced to work overtime.
Chen Yuan maintained his spiritual energy shield.
The divine power within him was still as vast as the sea, so this amount of consumption was nothing to him.
Sustaining for several years is not a problem at all.
Just then.
The shadowy creature slipped into another spatial rift, and this time it stayed inside for longer than before.
Just as Chen Yuan was about to use his divine sense to investigate, the shadowy figure's head suddenly poked out from the crack.
His little eyes were full of excitement.
"Boss! We've made a major discovery!"
Chen Yuan's eyes lit up.
After being trapped in this godforsaken place for so long, finally there's news?
"Have you found a way out?"
Shadow shook his head: "Uh, no."
Chen Yuan's lips twitched.
Why are you so agitated if you can't find your way out?
"Then why are you so agitated?"
"Although we haven't found a way out, there's a relatively stable space inside!"
The shadow spoke rapidly.
"There's also a magnificent floating palace! It looks incredibly grand, and although it's a bit dilapidated, it's clearly no ordinary structure!"
"I've already walked around inside, and it doesn't seem dangerous."
"Boss, should we keep looking for a way, or go inside and take a look?"
Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly.
The main hall? In this spacetime turbulence?
His intuition told him that this thing might have come from an unusual place!
He turned to look at Ming Sha.
Ming Sha quickly explained.
"Boss, spatial rifts within the spacetime turbulence region can lead to anywhere."
"If we're lucky, we might find some fragment that was left behind before the Myriad Realms Continent collapsed."
"Sometimes these fragments hold opportunities, sometimes they hold dangers; it all depends on luck."
It paused.
"As for the grand hall that Brother Ying mentioned, I've never heard of it before and have no idea what it is."
"But one thing is certain: nothing that can be preserved in spatial turbulence is simple."
Chen Yuan remained silent for a few moments, his mind racing with calculations.
Continuing to wander aimlessly in the turbulent flow of time and space, not knowing when they will find an exit.
Since this grand hall can exist in the spacetime turbulence, perhaps there are clues to leaving inside.
Even if there's nothing... it's not a loss if you can seize some opportunities.
Having finally discovered this opportunity, how could I not try to learn it?
Chen Yuan explained simply and clearly.
"lead the way."
"Alright!" Shadow replied, and his head scurried back into the crack.
Chen Yuan and Ming Sha followed closely behind, passing through the spatial rift.
......
The moment you pass through the crack, the view before you suddenly opens up.
It was no longer an endless void and bizarre bands of light, but a relatively stable space.
The sky was gray and hazy, as if shrouded in a thin mist.
The ground beneath my feet was solid bluestone, and although it was covered with cracks, it was still stable to walk on.
At the edge of space, one can see distorted spacetime turbulence churning.
Those turbulent currents were like raging dragons, rolling, tearing, and roaring in the void.
However, they were blocked by some invisible force and could not penetrate this space even a step.
Like a natural barrier, or some kind of powerful restriction, it isolates this area from the outside world!
The most eye-catching part is right in the center of the space.
A magnificent hall floats in mid-air.
The main hall is entirely black, with intricate patterns carved all over its surface.
Although it is dilapidated, you can still see its former glory.
The hall is several hundred meters long and tens of meters high.
Above the main entrance hangs a plaque, the inscription of which is now blurred and illegible.
Most of the glazed tiles on the roof of the palace were broken.
The dark gold beams and pillars beneath were exposed.
Several thick stone pillars stood crookedly, one of which was broken in two.
The walls were covered with unknown dark patterns, like the marks of time.
The entire hall exudes an ancient and desolate atmosphere.
Standing below and looking up.
You can feel an overwhelming sense of oppression coming your way!
Ming Sha looked around, a hint of amazement flashing in his vertical pupils.
"It really is a fragment from somewhere in the Myriad Realms Continent! And the space is so stable, it's truly remarkable."
It turned to Chen Yuan with a hint of excitement in its voice.
"Boss, you've hit the jackpot! You usually find good stuff in places like this!"
Chen Yuan did not respond.
He wasn't particularly concerned about whether it was a precious treasure or not.
The main purpose is to see if there is a way to escape the spacetime turbulence here.
Do you recognize this hall?
Ming Sha stared at the main hall for a long time before shaking his head.
"I don't remember. The Myriad Realms Continent is too big, with countless forces. It's impossible for me to know every single one of them."
"Moreover, I have only heard about the once glorious Myriad Realms Continent; I have never seen it with my own eyes."
Chen Yuan did not press further.
He closed his eyes and let his consciousness spread in all directions.
His divine sense swept across the entire space.
The outer walls of the main hall, the bluestone floor, and the spacetime turbulence barrier at the edge were all carefully examined.
He opened his eyes again after a moment.
Just as Shadow had said, there was no sign of danger.
"Let's go."
Chen Yuan strode towards the main hall.
The shadow shrank to two meters in size and followed happily beside him.
Ming Sha also shrank in size, its vertical pupils constantly scanning its surroundings, remaining vigilant.
We arrived at the main entrance of the hall.
The gate consists of two enormous stone doors, each over ten meters high.
The surface was also covered with intricate patterns, unlike any array patterns Chen Yuan had ever seen.
There was a thin crack in the middle of the door, through which one could vaguely see the darkness inside.
Chen Yuan scanned the door with his Eye of Void, but there were no restrictions or traps on it.
He raised his hand, pressed it against the stone door, and pushed hard.
"Rumble..."
The stone door made a dull thud and slowly opened to both sides.
Dust fell in a flurry from the lintel.
Behind the door was a deep corridor, with crystal lamps that had long since been extinguished embedded in the walls on both sides.
At the end of the corridor, a more open space can be vaguely seen.
Chen Yuan stepped inside.
Shadow and Dark Fiend followed behind, one on the left and one on the right.
On the walls on both sides of the corridor, there is a crystal lamp every few meters.
Chen Yuan casually channeled a few strands of spiritual energy into the lamp, causing it to emit a faint light that barely illuminated the path beneath his feet.
Step out of the corridor.
Before us lay the interior of a spacious hall.
The dome is tens of meters high and should have been covered with murals, but now it is so faded that the content is almost unreadable.
The floor was covered with dark gold tiles, each engraved with intricate patterns.
Two rows of stone pillars stand on either side of the main hall, their shafts also covered with intricate patterns.
The stone pillars were originally inlaid with lighting crystals, but most of them are now broken.
At the deepest part of the main hall is a high platform.
On the high platform sits a large stone chair with a high back and armrests carved with unidentified animal heads.
The stone chair was empty.
The entire hall was empty, with nothing but dust and rubble.
Ming Sha paced around the main hall, his vertical pupils filled with disappointment.
"That shouldn't be the case."
It muttered to itself.
"This grand hall is clearly not something an ordinary force could build, so why is there no treasure inside?"
"Could it be hidden somewhere?"
"Or has someone else already beaten them to it?"
As it muttered to itself, it meticulously scanned every inch of the walls and floor tiles with its divine sense.
The shadowy creature followed, darting around and sniffing here and there.
Chen Yuan did not rush to search.
He stood in the center of the hall, his gaze slowly sweeping over the surroundings.
The Eye of Void pierced through the entire hall, inside and out, and saw it clearly.
There were no hidden compartments in the walls, no secret rooms under the floor tiles, and no hidden layers inside the stone pillars.
There really was nothing there.
But just as he was about to look away...
The air in the center of the hall suddenly rippled slightly, and a phantom image materialized in front of him.
It is not a foreign race, but a human being!
The phantom was tall and wore ancient armor that Chen Yuan had never seen before.
The armor has a simple and heavy design.
The surface was covered with patterns completely different from those Chen Yuan was familiar with.
The face was blurry and the features were not clearly visible.
But one could sense the authority of someone who had long held a high position.
It's a unique aura that only people who have truly controlled the lives and deaths of countless people possess; it's not something that can be faked or deliberately maintained!
It's like something you're born with!
The phantom emanated a faint golden light, which, though weak, possessed a power that inspired awe.
Chen Yuan's pupils contracted slightly.
The Shadow and the Netherworld Demon reacted instantly, surrounding the phantom from the left and right.
The shadowy figure bared its teeth and let out a low whimper.
"Who is pretending to be a ghost?"
Ming Sha's vertical pupils were fixed on the illusory figure, and its four claws were slightly gathering power, ready to strike at any moment.
"Wait a moment."
Chen Yuan raised his hand, signaling them not to move.
He stared at the human phantom before him, his brows furrowing slightly.
It was able to leave a phantom image in the dilapidated hall amidst the turbulent flow of time, and it has not dissipated even after countless years.
The person who possessed this illusory figure was definitely not an ordinary person in life.
"Who are you?"
Chen Yuan spoke, his voice calm.
"Where is this place?"
The phantom did not answer immediately.
Although its face was blurry, Chen Yuan could sense that it was sizing him up.
