Sword Emperor

Seeing his opponent's movement, Sun Bing subconsciously stretched out his hand to stop him. But before he could finish his words, ao Yi turned into his original form and flew towards the bottom of the valley.    

It was too late to say anything now. Sun Bing could only sigh and follow closely behind.    

As soon as his body left the Ancestral Dragon-artery-liked mountain range, Sun Bing instantly felt a terrifying suction force coming from below.    

Even though Sun Bing's cultivation base had reached such a level, he was still unable to control his body.    

Most importantly, it was as if he had lost the ability to fly. Like a rock, he fell down from the sky.    

Although Sun Bing's physique had already reached the level of Jadebones, a hint of worry had also emerged in his heart.    

After all, he was about to enter the dragon bead that was being nurtured by the Ancestral Dragon-artery-liked mountain range. If such an accident occurred during the first step, he had no idea what kind of crisis he would encounter next.    

Just as Sun Bing was racking his brain to think of a way to break out of this predicament, he could only hear a loud dragon roar echoing in all directions.    

"Ao Yi?"    

A strong sense of surprise immediately burst out from Sun Bing's heart. Looking at the source of the sound, he could see a golden stream of light approaching at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, a familiar voice was heard.    

"Benefactor, although this place used to be quite strange, it wasn't like today. It could actually affect people's ability to fly. If it wasn't for my innate ability, I wouldn't have been able to move.    

Next, you will stand above my head and I will escort you into the valley. "    

As he spoke, ao Yi flew down and used his head to catch Sun Bing. The feeling of stepping on solid ground once again appeared. Sun Bing's heart, which was hanging on his chest, was completely relieved.    

Ao Yi was indeed worthy of being called a Dragon. His body was already huge to begin with. Now, for the sake of Sun Bing, he had even used the Heavenly Phenomenon Divine Ability, causing his huge body to increase by several times.    

Currently, his head was almost 300 meters in circumference. Standing there, Sun Bing was as relaxed as flat ground.    

He looked around and saw all the beautiful scenery. Furthermore, he was sitting on a Genuine Dragon. Even though Sun Bing's heart was calm and composed, it was still full of ripples at this moment.    

One should know that this was the legendary Genuine Dragon. It was rare to begin with. Since ancient times, only the Jade Emperor, a top expert, possessed the Genuine Dragon as a mount.    

Now that Sun Bing had done the same, and thought of his great ambition, Sun Bing couldn't help but roar towards the sky.    

For a moment, the valley was filled with deep echoes. It was only after a long time that the echoes finally faded away.    

As for Sun Bing, although his cultivation base hadn't changed at all, his spirit had merged into one, and the power he could unleash had increased by a lot.    

Most importantly, Sun Bing had a feeling that the bottleneck of breaking through to the Monarch Stage had loosened up a lot. In short, before he could enter the valley, Sun Bing had already obtained tremendous benefits.    

In the following time, ao Yi didn't waste any time. A man and a dragon kept flying down the valley.    

However, the valley was bottomless. Even after such a long time, there was still no sign of them reaching the end of the valley. Sun Bing furrowed his brows.    

"This valley seems to be a little too deep. Something doesn't seem right."    

As a Genuine Dragon, ao Yi's speed was naturally unfathomable. Although he hadn't reached the level where he could travel through space, he was still extraordinary. In just a breath's time, he could travel millions of miles.    

Although he was affected by this valley, his speed was only a thousandth of his original speed, but after such a long time, he had crossed at least millions of miles.    

One should know that even the Ancestral Dragon-artery-liked mountain range was only a million miles tall. Ao Yi's speed of descent had long surpassed this limit, but he still couldn't see the bottom of the valley. There must be a demon behind this abnormal situation.    

Thinking of this, Sun Bing's eyes suddenly became sharp. The energy in his body immediately surged into his eyes. It was the Tai Yi Yin Yang. The image of the Five Elemental Eight Trigrams appeared once again.    

His eyes slowly swept across the surroundings. He saw that the originally empty world had suddenly changed. One after another, obscure rules spread out in all directions, crisscrossing and perfectly merging with each other.    

Seeing this, Sun Bing's facial expression became extremely ugly. Without hesitation, he spoke.    

"Ao Yi, stop right now!"    

"En?"    

Hearing this, ao Yi almost subconsciously stopped his actions. Then, he said in a very puzzled manner:    

"Benefactor, what exactly happened? We haven't reached the bottom of the valley yet. Why did we stop now?"    

At this moment, Sun Bing didn't say anything. His eyes swept across the surroundings once more. Soon, he discovered that in this short period of time, the numerous rules had doubled.    

However, the strangest thing was that there weren't any abnormal signs. Even Ao Yi didn't notice anything wrong.    

For a moment, Sun Bing's face turned incomparably pale. At the same time, he gritted his teeth and said.    

"Good, good, good. It's indeed worthy of being a dragon bead that has absorbed the essence of the Ancestral Dragon-artery-liked mountain range. Even though I have been very careful, I didn't expect that there would still be an accident."    

With Sun Bing's attainments in formations, he realized the rules the moment he saw them. This was a natural terrain.    

Just by looking at the Meaning of Dao, he could see the profoundness of the terrain. Even with Sun Bing's knowledge, he had no idea what the terrain was called.    

The biggest possibility was that no one had ever seen this terrain before, and there were no records of it in the ancient books.    

However, there was also another possibility. That was... Some people had seen this terrain before, but they had not escaped, so they were unable to record it down.    

When this thought appeared in Sun Bing's mind, his expression became even more unsightly.    

This natural terrain was terrifying, but it wasn't to the extent where one would die without a doubt. If one could sense the difference in this place at the first possible moment, then it would be extremely easy to escape.    

However, it had already been so long. Sun Bing and Ao Yi were almost stuck in this terrain. They wanted to leave this place. It wouldn't be an easy task.    

Furthermore, Sun Bing was certain that the reason why Ao Yi didn't see any Divine Beast leaving this valley was because most of the Divine Beast were trapped by this natural terrain.    

Just as Sun Bing's mind was filled with thoughts, the infinite rules in the surroundings suddenly changed. They crisscrossed with each other, almost perfectly merging into one.    

Boundless energy of the heaven and earth gathered crazily, and then it pressed down on Sun Bing.    

Caught off guard, Sun Bing could only feel an unimaginable force coming at him. The spiritual strength that was observing the surroundings was instantly swallowed, and it opened its mouth and spat out waves of blood mist.    

Seeing this situation, ao Yi's facial expression changed dramatically. Although Sun Bing was standing right above his head, and he didn't turn his head to check what was going on, he still couldn't help but shout out.    

"Benefactor, benefactor, what exactly happened to you?"    

"It doesn't matter. You don't have to worry about me."    

After a while, Sun Bing finally managed to recover. He slowly opened his eyes and carefully looked around before muttering to himself.    

"It seems like the terrain here is more terrifying than I had imagined. The movement just now has gathered such a terrifying force of the Heavens and Earth. It only injured my mind, but it has no effect on you and your body. It's really strange."    

As he spoke, Sun Bing even recalled the rules of the surroundings and continued to practice in his sea of consciousness.    

But the strangest thing was that Sun Bing could clearly remember the position of each rule, as well as all kinds of principles explained by inscriptions. However, if he wanted to fuse them into one, he simply could not succeed.    

Every time he was about to succeed, he would be affected by all kinds of influences, causing him to fail on the verge of success.    

And if he could not simulate the terrain here, then Sun Bing would not be able to comprehend the mysteries within, nor would he be able to find any flaws and leave. He would even be able to stay here forever.    

When he thought of this possibility, countless beads of cold sweat appeared on Sun Bing's back.    

He let out a long breath. After taking a deep breath, Sun Bing gritted his teeth and instilled his strength into his eyes again. He scanned his surroundings.    

Endless inscription symbols, obscure Rules of Grand Dao... The terrifying force of heaven and earth was all displayed in front of Sun Bing, and it exerted all of its strength to press down on him.    

After a short period of time, Sun Bing opened his mouth and spat out another batch of blood mist. However, after circulating the Nirvana Heavenly Scripture, he continued to investigate his surroundings without any hesitation.    

Because he once again observed his surroundings, Sun Bing discovered that the number of inscription symbols and Rules of Grand Dao was increasing, and the energy they gathered was also becoming more and more terrifying.    

Although it hadn't completely erupted yet, even Sun Bing's heart was filled with a thick sense of crisis. There seemed to be a faint fatal aura attacking him.    

Obviously, this strange terrain wasn't only able to trap people. There was also an even greater killing intent coming.    

Under the pressure of the life and death crisis, Sun Bing urged all of his spiritual strength to crazily investigate the surrounding environment. He wanted to find a chance of survival in a situation where there was no chance of survival.    

However, the more he investigated, the more despair he felt. This was because his spiritual strength could not bear the terrifying power contained in the surrounding Great Dao. It would explode the moment it appeared.    

In just a short period of time, Sun Bing's spirit had been destroyed countless times. Even with his strong willpower, he could not hold on any longer.    

But if he didn't carry out the investigation, then he could only close his eyes and wait for death.    

At this critical moment, Sun Bing seemed to have thought of something. A glimmer of hope appeared in his originally despairing eyes.    

"The Chaotic Cyan Lotus is the beginning of all Daos. Since my spiritual strength can't bear the power of those Meaning of Dao, and I can't even investigate those Meaning of Dao, then what about the Chaotic Cyan Lotus?"
