Chen Sheng had no choice but to,
constantly pursue faster progress to become strong in the shortest amount of time.
Once the Pocket Universe was complete,
it would mean he no longer had any worries.
He could carry his home with him and explore the Endless Universe,
or remain in his own world, letting the universe the size of a marble drift in the turbulent flows of time or linger in a world not targeted by his subordinates.
The sky is high for the birds to soar, the sea is vast for the fish to swim.
He,
would no longer be bound.
And at present,
this opportunity was within reach.
How could Chen Sheng not be exhilarated?
“I know you are anxious in your heart.”
Observing the emotions welling up deep within Chen Sheng’s eyes,
the Spiritual Martial King couldn’t help but feel somewhat emotional.
He had come this far in a similar manner.
Without the backing of a force,
individual Breakthrough Limiters like them were walking on thin ice above the universe.
Luckily for him,
he had once encountered joy.
And Chen Sheng,
under the guidance of joy, met him.
Perhaps, in some sense, it could also be considered a form of inheritance.
“Now there’s only one last step.”
“It won’t take long, just a few hours to complete.”
“You may rest briefly with Lie Yan and the others, and I will inform you once it’s done.”
Upon hearing this,
Chen Sheng bowed and expressed his gratitude.
“Thank you, Spiritual Martial King.”
Although it was a transaction,
Chen Sheng still maintained basic respect when facing someone far stronger than himself.
“However, the Spiritual Martial King must have reasons other than this matter to keep me here, don’t you think?”
As the topic concluded, Chen Sheng brought up his doubts.
If it were just about the Pocket Universe, the Spiritual Martial King could have simply mentioned it, so why did he specifically keep Chen Sheng back?
“Indeed,”
hearing this,
the Spiritual Martial King slowly nodded.
His smile gradually faded, turning serious.
The atmosphere within the Grand Hall thickened.
“Would you allow me to look at the corpse you brought back?”
“Don’t worry, I just want to explore its memories to see if I can find evidence of the Resistance Army bewitching my grandchild.”
“Nothing more, I won’t touch anything else.”
What the Spiritual Martial King referred to,
was the Huan Ling corpse Chen Sheng had carried all the way here, now lying at the entrance of the Grand Hall.
Because the soul of a Galaxy Level Powerhouse was quite tough to digest, attracting its memories and soul was by no means a short-term task.
Therefore,
Chen Sheng could only bring it back.
Now that the Spiritual Martial King had requested it, Chen Sheng wasn’t petty.
“No problem.”
As his words fell,
Chen Sheng sent a command to Xiao Hei.
And so,
outside the Grand Hall,
the guards in charge of watching the corpse witnessed a terrifying spectacle.
They saw the previously still and colossal corpse, lying like a small hill on the ground, suddenly begin to tremble.
Then,
it staggeringly stood up.
“A demon’s work!”
“Quickly—”
“It’s alright, let it come in.”
Just as the guard was about to call for backup, the voice of the Spiritual Martial King came from within the Grand Hall.
Astonished,
the guard quickly stepped aside.
They then saw the headless dog corpse walk into the Grand Hall.
Just like that,
time slowly passed.
After ten minutes,
inside the Grand Hall,
the Spiritual Martial King opened his eyes, his expression ice-cold.
“What a Resistance Army.
“They’ve done it so cleanly.”
With the Spiritual Martial King’s strength, reading memories didn’t require the gradual absorption like Xiao Hei’s.
However, upon his investigation, he found that the memories left in the Huan Ling were entirely devoid of any association with the Resistance Army.
It seemed as though an invisible force had wiped out all memories related to the Resistance Army at the moment of its death.
Simultaneously, no trace could be found on the body.
From beginning to end,
Chen Sheng stood aside, silently watching the Spiritual Martial King’s actions.
It was as if he suddenly thought of something and immediately closed his eyes, delving his consciousness into his mind.
In the dark space of consciousness,
memories flashed before Chen Sheng like a carousel.
Quickly,
they settled on the recent memory of when he had just slain Huan Ling.
In its dying moments, Huan Ling had used a glass sphere to call for help.
When Chen Sheng had crushed the sphere, he had seen Lu Yang’s image on it.
If this memory could be retrieved, it could also serve to check the Resistance Army.
Therefore,
Chen Sheng made this move.
However… as he saw the memory images,
Chen Sheng froze in shock.
He was certain that at the time he had seen the appearance of Lu Yang from the Resistance Army.
But now, in his memories,
all he could see was a glass sphere with a smooth surface.
It wasn’t just that,
Chen Sheng, feeling a sense of realization, hastily flipped through the memory images again.
Time quickly went back to those few meetings he had with Lu Yang.
No matter whether it was on Earth, or when he later met with Lu Yang in a conscious manner,
he could only remember that it was Lu Yang.
But the images of the other party had become completely blurred.
“This is the doing of Jiu Yang Zi from the Resistance Army,”
while in the space of consciousness,
Chen Sheng heard the words of the Spiritual Martial King.
“That old boy is best at calculating fate and concealing heavenly secrets,”
“He has long set prohibitions to obscure the heavenly secrets related to the Resistance Army.”
“Unless one’s strength far surpasses his, it is very difficult to observe images of the Resistance Army outside of reality.”
“Because of this, the Resistance Army has been able to survive to this day under the hands of subordinates who far surpass them in both strength and numbers.”
“What a pity, what a pity.”
“I thought that with the Resistance Army recently facing pursuit, the prohibition might have weakened.”
“I would never have guessed…”
At this point,
the Spiritual Martial King’s face showed a hint of exhaustion.
From the time when Long Aotian had been captured to the present,
he had spent his mental energy calculating positions, creating a Pocket Universe, and probing memories, attempting to counteract the prohibitions Jiu Yang Zi had set.
Even as a Universe Level Powerhouse,
he felt somewhat weary at the moment.
However,
this weariness existed for only a brief instant.
Seeing that Chen Sheng had returned to reality from the space of consciousness,
the Spiritual Martial King had already regained his usual dignified composure.
“It’s alright,”
“I was only trying it out with a hopeful attitude anyway.”
“I must also thank you, my young friend Chen Sheng,”
The Spiritual Martial King said with a smile, nodding at Chen Sheng.
“I have instructed Lie Yan to arrange temporary accommodations for you.”
“It will only take several hours, and then I will have completed the creation of the Pocket Universe.”
“Thank you, Spiritual Martial King,”
Sensing the aura of Lie Yan approaching from afar,
Chen Sheng once again paid his respects, then prepared to leave the Grand Hall.
His footsteps gradually receded.
“Wait,”
But just at that moment,
the Spiritual Martial King seemed to sense something.
He raised his head and looked upward, his gaze almost penetrating the architectural barriers, reaching farther beyond.
Chen Sheng turned back, puzzled.
The Spiritual Martial King withdrew his gaze and stared at him.
“There is one more thing,”
“It concerns your safety, young friend,”
Afterwards,
the Spiritual Martial King’s lips parted slightly.
Listening to the voice that rang out in his mind,
Chen Sheng’s expression also grew solemn.
————
One hour later,
unbidden guests as promised arrived in the Spiritual Martial World.
The muscular woman in a mask, accompanied by a small team, walked slowly towards the Imperial Palace Great Hall under the lead of Shi Jian, one of The Four Great Martial Divines.
As they made their way to the deep end,
the masked woman removed her mask to reveal a terrifying face crisscrossed with scars.
Facing the majestic figure seated upon the Dragon Throne,
and sensing the heavy atmosphere that filled the inside of the Great Hall,
the members of the Resistance Army couldn’t help feeling a chill in their hearts.
“Tu’er pays respects to the Spiritual Martial King,”
Tu’er,
that was the name of the woman with the mask.
As fierce as her name suggested,
but in the presence of the Spiritual Martial King,
even Tu’er, who had fought countless battles and was renowned for her ferocity and brutality, dared not show the slightest impropriety.
She, the first to settle her mind, bowed deeply and respectfully to the Spiritual Martial King, maintaining the respect due to a strong person.
Her followers promptly recovered and mimicked her actions one after another.
“You… dare appear before me?”
Unlike the gentleness he showed towards Chen Sheng,
the Spiritual Martial King now looked at the members of the Resistance with a piercing gaze, his aura unmistakably revealed.
Just the hinted chill in his words,
made the woman’s flesh crawl with continuous goosebumps, as if countless sharp blades were approaching, ready to strike at any moment.
“Spiritual Martial King, what do you mean—”
Tu’er, her face betraying confusion, began to speak.
Boom!!!
But as soon as she began to speak,
the boundless pressure that had been suspended all around surged toward her all at once.
In an instant,
Tu’er’s already fierce features twisted to the extreme as if she were enduring infinite pain.
The squeaking noises of bones and flesh grinding against each other echoed throughout the Grand Hall.
Thump.
Her robust body, under the immense pressure, kneeled down.
“If you dare utter another word of nonsense,”
“then die.”
