Chapter 278: 1,000 Miles Of Mountains and Rivers

What was beyond the dimensional fracture?
Practically everyone could describe it, as besides the fact that they were able to see through the space barrier, they had also witnessed many dimensional fracture incidents.
Imposing primordial mountains, huge trees that blotted out the sun, and flying source beasts that could cover the sky lay beyond…
However, if someone asked them if anyone had ever stepped beyond a dimensional fracture, these people would have no answer. Perhaps some ultimate powerhouses had entered these dimensional fractures, but nobody could say for certain.
That day, before the eyes of countless people, Luo Yunyang rushed into that dimensional fracture.
The Primordial Diabolical Bull, which had already stopped to rest on a colossal mountain within the dimensional fracture, had never imagined that Luo Yunyang would actually rush in.
Its previous clash with Luo Yunyang had left the bull with severe injuries. This strange situation was totally unexpected, so for a moment it didn’t know what to do.
“Give back my Heavenly Source Stone!” Luo Yunyang shouted righteously.
Although the Primordial Diabolical Bull became stubborn easily, it was no fool. When it heard Luo Yunyang’s shout, it turned its head and ran off into the distance without hesitation.
F*ck Luo Yunyang! This Heavenly Source Stone was clearly the bull’s. What was all this talk about returning it to him?
The moment he entered the dimensional fracture, Luo Yunyang realized that this vast world seemed to contain huge quantities of sixth factor.
Just the mountain he was on contained 10 times the sixth factor of the Great Snow Mountain and way higher sixth factor than Base 7.
“You can’t escape!” Luo Yunyang roared and used his Space True Intent. However, instead of traversing dozens of kilometers in one go, Luo Yunyang only managed to cover two to three kilometers.
He actually sensed vaguely that if it had not been for his Space True Intent, his speed would have been even slower there.
In this world, he felt like he faced a certain obstruction. Actually, it was his True Intent that came up against some form of resistance.
As the Primordial Diabolical Bull ran frantically towards the depths of the colossal mountain, Luo Yunyang glanced at the dimensional fracture behind him. He hesitated for a bit before ultimately chasing after the bull.
The Heavenly Source Stone was something that could only be discovered, not sought. If he couldn’t obtain a Heavenly Source Stone to raise his ice-based source core to a god-grade level, Luo Yunyang would need at least a few decades of hard work.
Alternately, he could perhaps spend a lot of effort searching for all sorts of divine waters. However, not only would this search be time-consuming, but it would also rely a lot on luck.
This was because the Heavenly Source Stone’s ability to change attributes could allow the power of the Sun and Moon to have an even more tacit symbiosis.
In the space of a breath, Luo Yunyang had already run several kilometers. Meanwhile, the dimensional fracture, which was no longer held up by the Primordial Diabolical Bull, had started to shrink slowly.
Many people in Shen’du had disbelieving expressions on their faces as they watched Luo Yunyang frantically chase after the Primordial Diabolical Bull through the screen.
Chasing after a source beast on the other side of the space barrier was something only a madman would do.
Jin Zaitian, who was one of the leaders of the Da Alliance, pondered this for a few seconds before he said, “Gather all the forces of the 13 Eastern Cities and drive away all the dire beasts that have appeared in Jin’fu City!”
Now that the Primordial Diabolical Bull was gone, the continuous stream of dire beasts pouring out of the dimensional fracture had halted. If the Da Alliance relied on the strength of the 13 Eastern Cities, all the dire beasts that had entered could be driven into the wilderness.
Although this would make the wilderness even more dangerous, it was clearly much better than having countless dire beasts on the outskirts of the city.
Zhuge Yi and the others quickly got to work. The eight armies had already been prepared, so when they heard the order, they followed the lead of their various commanders and advanced quickly in the direction of Jin’fu City.
However, while the Da Alliance’s forces prepared for a big battle, Lu Qubing and Jin Zaitian were still talking.
“I don’t have long to live, Vice-Chairman. If I die, I hope that you will let the Eagle King take over the Rising Dragon Army and become the Rising Dragon Army’s Viceroy,” Lu Qubing said while going through another round of violent coughing.
Jin Zaitian nodded his head. “The Eagle King has served in the Rising Dragon Army for many years and many people have high expectations of him. I believe that would be fine, but you still mustn’t be discouraged, Qubing.”
“Large quantities of sixth factor have flowed in and the mountains and rivers within thousands of miles have started to recover. Perhaps a miracle drug could be discovered. In that case, there would still be hope for you.”
Lu Qubing forced a smile. His expression was calm as he said, “Thank you for your words, Vice-Chairman. I also hope that things will work out.”
Then, he added, “Actually, I was hoping that Luo Yunyang would succeed me as the Rising Dragon Army’s Viceroy. The Rising Dragon Army’s Viceroy needs to have both a high prestige and a formidable fighting strength. When Luo Yunyang returned from Mei’ya City, I thought that his experience was still lacking and his cultivation base was insufficient, so he didn’t qualify. However, I never imagined that he would push ahead like a violent hurricane, not like he has been doing for so long…”
Lu Qubing shook his head gently while Jin Zaitian smiled. Back then, Jin Zaitian had also taken notice of Luo Yunyang.
However, he had only seen him as a member of the younger generation that would be groomed into a capable soldier of the eight armies in the future.
He hadn’t expected that his current level would be even higher than his.
“Yes, he became the Blood Strike Guard Commissar, a god-grade powerhouse, and then an ultimate powerhouse!” Jin Zaitian said with a smile. “He has already walked down an extremely difficult path in a very short time.”
“A few days ago, I went to see Master Wenxin, who said that he’d had a premonition. A child will carry the mandate of heaven in this recovering world. Perhaps Luo Yunyang…”
While the two of them were talking, the communication device in Lu Qubing’s hand started ringing. When he answered the call, he heard a cheerful voice. “Viceroy, we… we have discovered the Ascending Nine-Orifice Sky Lotus!”
Lu Qubing had already prepared for his death, so he did not care about his own fate. However, when he heard these words, his hand still started trembling slightly.
The Ascending Nine-Orifice Sky Lotus was a miracle medicine that was essentially the stuff of legends. Master Wenxin, whom Jin Zaitian had spoken of, had once treated Lu Qubing and told him that if he obtained an Ascending Nine-Orifice Sky Lotus, he would be able to overcome his illness.
However, the Ascending Nine-Orifice Sky Lotus was really precious. Lu Qubing had browsed through the Da Alliance’s most rare records, but had only come across one excerpt on the Ascending Nine-Orifice Sky Lotus.
Furthermore, it had been an unofficial record that one couldn’t rely on.
Lu Qubing had given up any hope of getting an Ascending Nine-Orifice Sky Lotus, so he had never in his wildest dreams expected to hear any news about it now.
“Ha ha ha! I told you so! You can’t die!” Jin Zaitian, who was also extremely excited, patted Lu Qubing on the shoulder and said, “Oh, it really is hard to kill you. If you survive this, then only good fortune will await you!”
Lu Qubing shut off his communication device in a daze. His vision had suddenly become slightly clouded.
