Chapter 1674: Chapter 1674: Parting from Him

The body was constantly spinning, flying into the vortex. Despite Feng Qingyu’s protective Gang Qi, she still felt a wave of dizziness in her brain, and her consciousness gradually became blurred.

Suddenly, a scene swiftly flashed before her eyes.

She saw an elderly lady with a wrinkled face flying toward a stern man in a shattered battle armor within a semi-transparent, crystal-like space barrier, delivering a fierce palm strike. Her appearance was so haggard, her figure so heavy, yet her expression was so resolute!

The man’s face broke into a ferocious cold smile, and he also rose to meet her strike with one of his own.

In a flash, the figures of both disappeared from view.

"Grandmother!" Mu Hanyan’s heart trembled. Wasn’t the elderly lady her grandmother, Luo Shuiyi? Compared to the last time she saw her in the Heavenly Secret Mirror, her grandmother’s appearance was even older and more haggard, as if she was at the end of her rope.

Although she didn’t see the final result, Mu Hanyan knew that, even if her grandmother’s strike didn’t lose to the opponent, she wouldn’t last much longer.

Alternate flashes of bizarre lights and shadows passed by, as if it were an illusion. Mu Hanyan even suspected if what she had just seen was real or not.

Suddenly, a huge, unparalleled force enveloped them, causing the entire black hole vortex to slowly collapse due to the pressure from that force.

Mu Hanyan was shocked. Although her body was continuously spinning inside the black hole vortex, she wasn’t under much pressure other than dizziness and blurred consciousness. If the black hole vortex collapses, they would be exposed to endless void. Even with Feng Qingyu’s protective Gang Qi, they wouldn’t sustain for long.

"Hurry up and go!" Ye Lanfeng too realized the danger, using his last strength to fiercely push Mu Hanyan deeper into the vortex.

"Lan Feng!" Mu Hanyan exclaimed.

Instantly, the black hole behind her collapsed piece by piece like a narrow corridor, and Ye Lanfeng’s tall figure vanished into the void.

Everything happened too quickly, so fast that she could do nothing to stop it!

"Crack", a faint sound echoed in her ears, and the entire black hole vortex collapsed like a dam filled with anthills, with terrifying void power surging like floodwaters from a breached dam.

Just as Mu Hanyan expected, even Feng Qingyu’s protective Gang Qi couldn’t last long.

Within just seven and a half minutes, the protective Gang Qi burst like a fragile soap bubble, and the terrifying void power entirely engulfed her.

Her vision went black, and Mu Hanyan passed out.

However, in the instant she fainted, a beam of white light flashed past her eyes, accompanied by the long-missed warmth of sunlight that seemed to sprinkle on her again.

...

After an unknown period, Mu Hanyan opened her eyes to find herself in a strangely familiar world.

Blue skies and white clouds, towering giant trees, rugged giant stones nearby, distant peaks layered with ridges, occasionally interspersed with beast roars. Such a scene was astonishingly similar to the depths of the Longyan Mountain.

Could the black hole vortex that Feng Qingyu tore open penetrate the space barrier, returning her to the Holy Court Continent?

Suddenly thinking of Lan Feng, Mu Hanyan’s expression changed. She remembered Ye Lanfeng pushed her out of the collapsing black hole just at the crucial moment, while he himself plunged into the void—a situation she had no idea of now.

Despite knowing how formidable Ye Lanfeng’s power was, she felt deeply uneasy thinking about the terrifying void power, even bordering on despair.

"The master is fine; he is still alive. How could such a powerful master die?" At this moment, Angang’s proud and confident voice reached her ears.

"Angang, do you know Lan Feng is okay?" Mu Hanyan joyfully brought it close to her face, asking excitedly.

"I don’t really know, but I can still sense the existence of our Lifebound Contract. The mighty master surely isn’t dead; he’s alive and well," Angang said, puffing out its tiny chest.

"Can you find him?" Mu Hanyan’s heart settled with the realization, continuing to inquire.

"I can’t. It seems there’s a barrier between us. I can only sense the existence of the Lifebound Contract, but I don’t know where the master is," Angang said with some frustration.

"It’s alright, as long as Lan Feng is okay." Even though Angang couldn’t find Ye Lanfeng, as long as he was safe, Mu Hanyan felt at ease. She believed Ye Lanfeng also missed her, and given a chance, he would reunite with her as soon as possible.

Mu Hanyan didn’t doubt Angang’s words. Though this little guy’s power wasn’t strong, with speed as its sole attribute rather than combat strength, it was gifted. It could simultaneously sign a Lifebound Contract with Ye Lanfeng and herself. Although her own power was weaker, she could entirely sense Ye Lanfeng’s survival through it if she were stronger.

Perhaps Ye Lanfeng, at this instant, could, through the subtle connection with Angang’s Lifebound Contract, determine her life and death.

"The breath here makes me uncomfortable. I’ll return to the Sword Pet Space first," Angang said.

"Go ahead," Mu Hanyan waved her hand. Before her eyes, with a flash of light, Angang disappeared.

Knowing Ye Lanfeng was alive helped Mu Hanyan’s mood to lighten substantially. Although Feng Qingyu was heavily wounded, after sending her away, he’d have no need to fight the Holy Master to death, so escaping the void shouldn’t be too difficult. The multitude of Descendants of Divine Guardian with the grave drifting toward the depths of the void was beyond even the Holy Master’s pursuit. With Mu Hanfeng and Dantai Changqing among the four Saints, plus a number of Holy Court Elites, and considering Zhuang Ping’an and others’ already notable strength, maintaining the barrier and that Dragon-shaped Guardian shouldn’t be difficult, and they shouldn’t face danger anytime soon.

The most danger probably lay with her grandmother, but till now, Mu Hanyan wasn’t sure if what she saw in the black hole vortex was real or illusion, and couldn’t determine where she and the fierce enemy from Divine Martial World were located. Of course, even if she identified that it was real and located them, she couldn’t rescue her grandmother with her current power.

Reflecting on this, Mu Hanyan gave a helpless smile. Originally, she was about to ascend to the Sword Saint Realm, but the Holy Master suddenly appeared, and the core power of the Xuanhuang Stone never refined. Her anticipated upgrade didn’t materialize.

Still good, that power didn’t vanish. It remained coagulated as a droplet, floating within her Qi Sea.

"Forget it, better focus on upgrading first." Mu Hanyan thought silently. Although she wasn’t fully certain where this place was, it didn’t seem ideal for upgrading, yet she desperately wished not to wait any longer.

With this thought, Mu Hanyan started cultivating once more. Her surprise radiated from her eyes shortly after, even having focused entirely on cultivation, the Qi circulation speed was abnormally slow—so slow akin to an ordinary Swordsman Realm cultivator. The disparity between Swordsman and Great Sword Master Peak was too huge, almost causing Mu Hanyan to forget what level the Swordsman resembled, conjecturing it might be akin to Seventh or Eighth Rank Swordsman.
