Chapter 2161 - 2162: Time-space Tide! (First Update)

In the midst of the time-space turbulence, the chaotic and violent power of time-space grew increasingly intense, while the Swallowing Flame protecting Ling Feng and Yeu Junyao was being crushed to the brink of collapse.

But this wasn’t the most terrifying thing. The most dreadful part was that ahead, the time-space turbulence had already formed eerie vortices, a sign that it was soon to condense into a time-space tide.

Once they enter the region of the time-space tide, Ling Feng’s Swallowing Flame would no longer be able to resist that violent force—in an instant, the two of them would turn to dust and vanish in the time-space tide.

Never mind a martial artist of Ling Feng’s level; even a saint-level expert wouldn’t dare traverse the void in the flesh, much less be directly swept into a time-space tide.

A time-space tide of that magnitude can pulverize even holy artifacts and immortal artifacts.

Cold sweat poured down Ling Feng’s forehead, and a look of utter terror flashed across Yeu Junyao’s eyes. They originally thought they’d be able to return to Xuanling Continent, but they ended up in such dire straits.

"Damn boy, it’s all your fault!"

Yeu Junyao’s face pressed tightly against Ling Feng’s chest due to the lack of space to move. Despite this, she couldn’t help but swing her fist at Ling Feng’s body, as if venting her frustration.

Ling Feng had no time to pay attention to Yeu Junyao. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind as he searched for a breakthrough method.

Breakthrough Shuttle?

That would be useful. Even though this place isn’t within a barrier, if they could hide inside the Breakthrough Shuttle in time, its defenses should be barely enough to withstand the time-space tide.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t summon the Breakthrough Shuttle now!

After thinking it over, Ling Feng found that, given the current situation, he had nothing that could resolve this crisis.

Time ticked by.

Every minute, every second was a torment for Ling Feng and Yeu Junyao. They could only watch helplessly as they were swept toward the time-space tide, utterly powerless.

Getting closer!

Closer and closer!

Ling Feng could feel his muscles starting to tear, while the Swallowing Flame around him shook violently, seemingly about to be extinguished at any moment.

As difficult as it was for him, it was even worse for Yeu Junyao, who had never cultivated the Body Refining Path.

At this moment, Yeu Junyao had lost her usual lively spirit and no longer complained incessantly. Her face was pale, and upon closer inspection, one could see beads of blood seeping through her skin and then floating into the surrounding void.

The suction force of the time-space tide actually drew out the blood from her body.

"Hey! Pull yourself together!"

Ling Feng slapped Yeu Junyao on the cheek a few times, seeing her expression—it looked like she was about to faint.

If she completely lost consciousness, she would be close to death.

"Damn... damn boy..."

Yeu Junyao opened her tired eyes, gazing at Ling Feng, gritting her teeth, "This time, I fear... I fear..."

"Don’t say foolish things!"

Ling Feng clenched his fist tightly, "We—will—not die!"

Ling Feng roared, and the Swallowing Flame around him erupted again, and in an instant, the Creation Power burst forth, forming another flame barrier around them, slightly suppressing the fearsome time-space tide.

But even with double layers of Swallowing Flame protection, they didn’t last long.

"Ugh!"

In just thirty breaths, Ling Feng felt his physical and spiritual power nearly drained. With his strength, resisting the time-space tide was indeed too much.

Is he really going to die here?

Unwilling!

So unwilling!

Watching helplessly as he and Yeu Junyao were swept into the time-space tide, Ling Feng felt extreme anger and unwillingness.

He clearly had so many things left to do, had the strongest bloodlines in the world, yet was trapped by the Emperor Netherworld!

Regret, anger!

Ling Feng not only hated the Emperor Netherworld to the core but also hated himself for not seeing through the Emperor Netherworld’s scheme.

However, all of this will soon be annihilated by the violent time-space tide, right?

Gradually, Ling Feng lost all strength to struggle. He clung to Yeu Junyao before him, using his body to shield her slightly from the time-space tide.

"I’m sorry, it’s all because of me!"

Ling Feng looked at the woman in front of him. Were it not for him, she wouldn’t have fallen into Milo Continent or faced such calamity.

Sadly, Yeu Junyao was already semi-conscious, and the violent time-space tide nearly tore her Divine Soul to pieces.

"Ah!"

Finally, they were swept into the vortex of the time-space tide, and the violent tearing force almost instantaneously threatened to rip Ling Feng’s limbs apart.

But at the moment when Ling Feng thought he was doomed, a stream of golden light suddenly enveloped him.

Immediately, he saw a large golden bell shoot up into the sky from above him.

It was the Eastern Emperor Bell!

He saw the Eastern Emperor Bell spinning rapidly, forming a counter-gyroscope that was almost as powerful as the time-space tide itself, completely absorbing that terrifying time-space tide!

Then, the spherical treasure exchanged from the Ancient Star Gate also flew out, revolving around the Eastern Emperor Bell.

The surface of that sphere sparkled with dazzling stars, particularly one red dot that stood out prominently.

Ling Feng’s eyes showed immense shock, but more than that, he felt an overwhelming sense of relief!

Unexpectedly, the Emperor Netherworld thought he had set Ling Feng up, but instead handed him a fortune by mistake!

Who would have thought that the Eastern Emperor Bell could absorb the power of the time-space tide!

Moreover, it seemed that the Eastern Emperor Bell was activated after devouring the energy from the time-space tide!

A flash of gold, and the presence of Huang Shaotian, attached to the Eastern Emperor Bell, appeared by Ling Feng’s side.

"Whoa, kid! You sure have guts! You dared to jump straight out of the time-space channel? Who would’ve thought that the way to activate the Eastern Emperor Bell was by absorbing chaotic time-space tides!"

Huang Shaotian exaggeratedly stared at Ling Feng, eyes full of incredulous amazement.

No wonder he never obtained the true legacy of the Eastern Emperor Bell; it turns out he simply lacked the courage!

"Hehe... You think I wanted to?"

Ling Feng bitterly chuckled; it wasn’t something he came up with.

If the Emperor Netherworld hadn’t played a dirty trick, how could he possibly use such a suicidal method to unlock the Eastern Emperor Bell’s power!

Huang Shaotian wasn’t clear on the backstory, but seeing Ling Feng looking so frail, holding the unconscious Yeu Junyao, he deduced the situation, chuckled, and said, "You’re so lucky, surviving being swept into a time-space tide—your protagonist halo is truly formidable!"

"Heh!"

Ling Feng rolled his eyes; Huang Shaotian always said strange things, but Ling Feng had long been accustomed to it.

Next, Huang Shaotian’s gaze fell on the spherical treasure around the Eastern Emperor Bell and exclaimed in astonishment, "Damn, isn’t this the Starry Sky Device? How did you get your hands on it, kid?"

"Starry Sky Device?"

Ling Feng blinked in surprise, realizing Huang Shaotian actually recognized this item?
