Chapter 999: Ashes and Smoke

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Fei furrowed his brow. If Chen Fei had had any doubts before, he was now completely certain that a powerhouse at the Rule Integration Realm was chasing him.

Otherwise, how could they be pursuing him so relentlessly?

Moreover, the rules of the Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce dictated that outsiders at the Rule Integration Realm couldn’t enter.

If they tried to force their way in, they would face the oppressive rules of the entire realm.

Facing the rules of an entire realm with the rules one controlled at the Rule Integration Realm was extremely perilous.

Not only would they be unable to exert their Rule Integration Realm power, but it would also damage their own origin, making it a total loss.

Furthermore, the current celestial phenomena of the Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce had undergone significant changes, visible even to those in the Sun Moon Realm within the realm.

“Is it the Rule Integration Realm member of the Gla.s.s Clan from the Central Mountain Range? Why are they pursuing me?” Chen Fei’s heart was filled with confusion. The only Rule Integration Realm beings in the entire Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce were there.

Seeing that the Celestial Suppression’s warning indicated imminent danger, the outcome of an encounter was unpredictable.

Chen Fei seemed to be sweeping through the entire Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce effortlessly because only mid-tier Sun Moon Realm beings were present there. At the moment, Chen Fei’s combat power made him invincible against mid-tier Sun Moon Realm opponents.

However, facing a Rule Integration Realm being was beyond Chen Fei’s capabilities.

The Sun Moon Realm and Rule Integration Realm were two different levels of existence. Chen Fei’s Star Shatter Slash had nearly the attacking power of a Rule Integration Realm, making him more aware of how terrifying a true Rule Integration Realm being could be.

Chen Fei looked ahead, relying on his sensitivity to s.p.a.ce to find a suitable weak spot. He still needed to move another hundred thousand miles.

However, according to the Celestial Suppression’s warning, he would be caught by the Rule Integration Realm powerhouse within another sixty thousand miles at most.

It was too late to escape the Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce unharmed. Chen Fei had to choose another escape route.

His gaze swept around, and a thought suddenly occurred to him. To the north, at most forty thousand miles away, was the Suspended Peak Mountain.

The distance between the Taiyin Peak and the Suspended Peak Mountain was less than a hundred thousand miles.

Chen Fei had unintentionally approached the Suspended Peak Mountain during his rapid movement.

Various thoughts flashed through Chen Fei’s mind.

Since escaping the Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce was no longer feasible, he wondered if entering the Suspended Peak Mountain, a perilous area, could allow him to avoid the Rule Integration Realm expert’s pursuit.

It wasn’t about hiding from the Rule Integration Realm’s perception, but rather if Chen Fei entered a perilous area, the Rule Integration Realm powerhouse would either have to tear through the perilous zone to capture him or enter the Suspended Peak Mountain themselves to capture him.

Chen Fei had only encountered two perilous areas in the Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce: Spirit Concealing Lake and Taiyin Peak.

Chen Fei’s original judgment was that with the power surpa.s.sing the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, he could directly tear through the barrier to leave Spirit Concealing Lake. However, the later appearance of a shadow had overturned Chen Fei’s initial guess.

If one used brute force to forcibly leave, as opposed to the clever methods Chen Fei used before, even a peak Sun Moon Realm being would face exaggerated resistance.

On Taiyin Peak, Chen Fei’s attack, which was almost at the Rule Integration Realm level, shattered part of the peak’s power. After this force decreased, some peculiar changes occurred.

This meant that the power of the Rule Integration Realm could potentially tear through these perilous areas directly, or, by tearing through parts of them, cause more intense changes in the perilous zones.

Chen Fei hesitated for a moment before heading straight for the Suspended Peak Mountain.

Forty thousand miles: for an ordinary person, crossing such a distance is almost unimaginable, as it could involve rivers, lakes, and seas along the way.

But for Chen Fei, who could move continuously, covering this distance quickly was no problem.

The first sight that greeted Chen Fei at the Suspended Peak Mountain was a mountain and a temple.

Chen Fei glanced around. This place used to be home to many different races, particularly the Evil Clan and Ice Clan of the Sun Moon Realms.

However, it was now notably deserted. Chen Fei sensed some of these races a few hundred miles away, but there were no Evil Clan or Ice Clan among them.

Clearly, the news of the battle at Taiyin Peak had reached the Suspended Peak Mountain, causing the Evil Clan and Ice Clan here to flee in fear of being trapped by Chen Fei.

Chen Fei looked down at the mountain temple. Although it wasn’t the core of the Suspended Peak Mountain, this temple had managed to block other Sun Moon Realm beings from spying on the mountain.

Chen Fei’s gaze s.h.i.+fted, and he looked back. A vast and terrifying aura was surging from a distant location.

Chen Fei’s expression grew solemn. It was indeed a Rule Integration Realm powerhouse. The movement of the rule particles accompanying this aura was too obvious; only a Rule Integration Realm being could produce such an effect.

Thousands of miles away, Qiu Yu’s expression darkened. He had initially thought that capturing Chen Fei would be a straightforward task.

Chen Fei’s earlier display of combat power was inconsistent with the norm but still fell within the range of Sun Moon Realm abilities.

Chen Fei’s attacks, nearly as powerful as those of the Rule Integration Realm, fell just short. This small difference was a chasm between the Rule Integration Realm and Sun Moon Realms.

Qiu Yu hadn’t expected that, just as he left the Central Mountain Range and was following the map’s guidance to capture Chen Fei, Chen Fei would be fleeing at such an unreasonable speed.

It was clear that the human had sensed the danger and was trying to escape the Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce.

If the human voluntarily left the Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce, Qiu Yu wouldn’t insist on capturing him, as the Gla.s.s Clan’s original intention was only to prevent Chen Fei from destroying the eight perilous zones.

However, if Chen Fei was escaping due to imminent danger, the human emperor outside would inevitably become suspicious of the situation within the Gla.s.s s.p.a.ce.

This might jeopardize their carefully planned objectives.

Therefore, Qiu Yu had to capture this human!

Moments later, Qiu Yu arrived at the front of the Suspended Peak Mountain and looked at Chen Fei. He then suddenly waved his right hand.

Chen Fei’s body tensed instinctively, as if seeing a natural enemy.

But soon, Chen Fei realized that Qiu Yu wasn’t attacking him.

Hundreds of miles away, the few remaining members of the different races suddenly froze and then abruptly combusted into ashes.

Qiu Yu wouldn’t allow any news of the Gla.s.s Clan’s Rule Integration Realm members leaving the Central Mountain Range to reach the Sun Moon Realm beings.

If Chen Fei were not a special figure, a genius of the human race, whose direct killing would enrage the human emperor, the Gla.s.s Clan’s Rule Integration Realm member would have taken a different approach towards him.

As for the Sun Moon Realm members of other races, the death of a few of them was insignificant to Qiu Yu, who would naturally deal with them directly.

Chen Fei, sensing the dissipating auras of the Sun Moon Realm beings hundreds of miles away, was solemn. This was a true Rule Integration Realm powerhouse. With a mere gesture, the Rule Integration Realm could make the Sun Moon Realm beings powerless to resist.

Unlike Chen Fei, who had to use his Star Shatter Slash and resonate with rule particles, a Rule Integration Realm being directly controlled and manipulated the rules.

“Human Chen Fei, at your service!”

Chen Fei took a deep breath and cupped his hands in greeting.

“Come with me, and I can spare your life,” Qiu Yu said, looking at Chen Fei with a commanding tone.

“May I ask how I have offended the elder?” Chen Fei asked, frowning.

“You have three breaths of time. Come up now!”

Qiu Yu’s voice suddenly grew louder. The s.p.a.ce around Chen Fei tightened abruptly, and an immense sealing force descended upon him.

Chen Fei had deliberately stood before the Suspended Peak Mountain. Qiu Yu immediately saw through Chen Fei’s intentions.

What had seemed like an order was actually a prelude to this sudden attack.

Chen Fei’s eyes narrowed slightly. As the surrounding s.p.a.ce began to close in, Chen Fei managed to slip out of the s.p.a.ce’s seal and appeared several miles away.

Without a word, Chen Fei moved directly into the Suspended Peak Mountain and vanished from sight.

In the face of a Rule Integration Realm being, Chen Fei’s options were indeed limited.

Understanding this, Chen Fei had heightened his alertness to the maximum when Qiu Yu appeared.

When Qiu Yu took action, the warning from the Celestial Suppression reached its peak. Relying on Celestial Suppression’s sensitivity to rule particles, Chen Fei made a preemptive evasive move.

Thus, it appeared as if Chen Fei had escaped Qiu Yu’s seal.

In reality, Chen Fei had already taken evasive action before the seal appeared, using the gap in s.p.a.ce to escape.

If Chen Fei had hesitated even for a moment, he would have fallen into Qiu Yu’s hands.

Chen Fei’s technique of resonating with rule particles was too immature before a Rule Integration Realm being and could be easily broken.

Chen Fei had stood before the Suspended Peak Mountain intending to inquire about the reason.

However, it was clear that Qiu Yu had little regard for him. The arrogance of the Rule Integration Realm made it disdainful to waste words on a Sun Moon Realm being, even if that being was a genius of the human race.

If Chen Fei does not fall midway, becoming a Rule Integration Realm powerhouse in the future is a certainty.

But that is a matter for the future and has nothing to do with the Gla.s.s Clan or with Qiu Yu.

In fact, Chen Fei’s future fate might well depend on the will of the Gla.s.s Clan.

If Chen Fei were to be sold to the Evil Clan and Ice Clan, this so-called human genius would have no future at all and would be stopped at the Sun Moon Realm.

Therefore, Qiu Yu had no intention of discussing matters with a Sun Moon Realm being who might have no future. The priority was to capture him first!

However, Qiu Yu did not expect that what seemed like a sure capture would fall through. Seeing Chen Fei disappear into the Suspended Peak Mountain, Qiu Yu’s brow furrowed.

Tearing apart the Suspended Peak Mountain was impossible; it would cause significant damage to the twisted rules within, which the Gla.s.s Clan intended to refine. It couldn’t be destroyed.

But without tearing the mountain apart, capturing Chen Fei meant directly entering the Suspended Peak Mountain.

Since the Suspended Peak Mountain had not yet been refined, it treated all incoming beings equally.

Moreover, because Qiu Yu’s power far surpa.s.sed Chen Fei’s, the Suspended Peak Mountain would automatically target Qiu Yu, forcing him to leave.

This left Qiu Yu in a dilemma, with no easy way to proceed.
