"A space rift? Could it really slice through space?!"

Jiang Chen muttered incredulously.

The current space had been reinforced by spiritual energy. According to Jiang Chen and the others' speculation, it should be able to withstand the aura of a Divine Infant Realm expert. Yet, the strike Jiang Chen delivered just now, although he pushed his spiritual power to the limit, he hadn't used any Secret Technique!

Without the boost from a Secret Technique, slicing through space with a single sword strike, albeit only a tiny rift, finer than a strand of hair, yet this...

A gleam sparked in Jiang Chen's eyes as he looked at the dagger, feeling a surge of joy in his heart.

"Destroying my Blood Saber for such a powerful dagger, it was worth it!"

Jiang Chen murmured, once again spreading his Soul Force, merging the Martial Soul's Power of Space, sensing the Formation Eye of the Spatial Array!

...

Amidst the vast fog, Dragon Saint and the others had also been dispersed.

Somewhere in the mist.

Stygian Dragon, the Supreme Emperor, Yue Tianzheng, and You Bitong were rapidly traversing the fog.

"Stygian Dragon, something's wrong. We have been flying for so long, and we should have left Sedney by now!" The Supreme Emperor stopped, frowning as he spoke.

The other three also halted, frowning as they surveyed their surroundings.

Ever since they entered the mist, they had been flying at high speed for several minutes. To strong experts at the late Saint Realm, a few minutes of full-speed flight could cover hundreds of kilometers, yet they were still enveloped by the mist, something was very off!

"Trouble!" Stygian Dragon said with a grim expression: "We haven't been flying straight, we've been circling in place!"

"Circling in place? How is that possible? We've been flying in a single direction!" Yue Tianzheng exclaimed in surprise.

Stygian Dragon glanced around, then turned to Yue Tianzheng: "Can you tell where we entered from?"

"Wasn't it from..."

Yue Tianzheng instinctively pointed behind them, then abruptly stopped.

Behind them was more mist, identical to the surroundings with no discernible difference!

"This..."

Yue Tianzheng paused in shock, saying full of surprise: "Are we... lost?"

"We've been affected by the formation!" Stygian Dragon said gravely: "Soul detection is impossible here, we have to rely on senses, but our senses have been influenced by the formation; flying like this, we'll never escape this Spatial Array!"

The Supreme Emperor's expression changed, urgently saying: "Then what do we do? We came in to draw fire, but if we can't even find the enemy, how do we draw fire?"

"A formation is built on the Formation Eye, each Formation Eye affects a segment of Formation Space, but the foundation of the formation is the formation base. Destroying the formation base will break the entire formation, but... I've only read about formation theory in texts, and I don't know how to break formations!" Stygian Dragon said, slightly embarrassed.

"This..."

The Supreme Emperor and Yue Tianzheng showed a hint of disappointment, frowning and scanning the area, their expressions growing darker.

"I have a way!"

You Bitong suddenly spoke solemnly.

"What way?"

"Clan Leader You, can you break the formation?"

"Clan Leader You, what have you come up with?"

Stygian Dragon and the others spoke in unison, focusing their gaze on You Bitong.

You Bitong glanced at the three, hesitated, then said seriously: "I can find You Xuan the Ancestor and Lord Xue through the Bloodline Power, but... after finding them, the ensuing battle will be up to you!"

"No way!"

Stygian Dragon immediately refused: "Clan Leader You, you plan to burn your Bloodline Power to resonate with Mr. Jiang and Ancestor You Xuan's Bloodline Power, to determine their location, right?"

"It's the only option we have now!" You Bitong nodded resolutely.

"Clan Leader You, doing so would cause you... the Shadow Clan's strength depends on the Bloodline Power's enhancement. If you do this... you may regress in strength, possibly unable to improve further!" Stygian Dragon looked at You Bitong with a complex expression.

The Supreme Emperor and Yue Tianzheng paused, falling silent.

"If something happens to Mr. Jiang, what use is living for us?" You Bitong seemed to have reached a decision and spoke candidly.

Stygian Dragon and the others froze, their gazes becoming solemn.

"Protect me!"

You Bitong instructed with determination, slowly closing his eyes.

Stygian Dragon and the others gritted their teeth, moved around You Bitong, forming a triangle to surround him.

A mysterious aura gradually emanated from You Bitong, his complexion paled, and beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead!

Buzz buzz buzz!

Waves of Bloodline Power spread from You Bitong, gradually permeating into the surrounding mist.

"Bloodline Power? So there's someone with a special bloodline here, seems I've found a treasure!"

An unexpected voice sounded.

You Bitong abruptly stopped burning his bloodline, opened his eyes and looked in front of the Supreme Emperor; Stygian Dragon and Yue Tianzheng also gathered beside the Supreme Emperor.

An elderly man with white hair and beard suddenly appeared before the Supreme Emperor, looking at You Bitong with amusement.

"Finally, we've encountered someone!"

The Supreme Emperor's eyes shot out a cold light as he spoke icily.

Buzz buzz buzz!

All four focused their spiritual energy, unleashing formidable auras that charged toward the old man.

"In such a rush to die? You people from Life Origin Star are truly overestimating yourselves. If I were you, I would surrender immediately, because your resistance merely adds more blood to our hands!"

An indifferent voice spoke, as one black and one white figure appeared before the four.

Buzz buzz buzz!

The momentum of three Saint Realm Peaks erupted violently, colliding with the pressure exerted by the four from the Supreme Emperor.

Bang bang bang!

Explosive noises sounded, the four of the Supreme Emperor stepped back, You Bitong's complexion turned pale, his brow slightly furrowed.

Though he had stopped burning his bloodline in time, injuries remained, hindering his full strength!

"Three Saint Realm Peaks? Fine!"

The Supreme Emperor grinned: "With less than ten Saint Realm Peak experts, we've tied up three. Coming in wasn't in vain!"

Stygian Dragon and the others nodded, vigilantly watching the three elderly opponents.

"Who told you there were less than ten Saint Realm Peak experts?" the white-bearded old man said playfully.

"Haha! Was it information from Ma Qie'er?"

The black-clad old man mocked: "If I told you we had twenty Saint Realm Peak experts, would you dare come?"

"What!? Twenty Peak experts?!"

Yue Tianzheng exclaimed in shock.

"You mentioned Leader Ma Qie'er?" Stygian Dragon suddenly sensed something amiss.
