Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2437: Chapter 2438: No Way Back

The only path left before the three of them was to cross this wall, for that is where the true Space-Time Channel lay.

Even if they turned back now, without the Token, they would not be able to leave this Space-Time Channel, merely wasting their time.

Clearly, the Law Enforcers and Uncle Hong had chosen to go far away, as staying in this safe zone was as good as boiling a frog in warm water—it would inevitably lead to their downfall.

By going further, at least there was a slim hope of survival.

”Let’s go! We have no way back!” Ye Luo said with a calm smile.

Originally, they had a means to return, but Ye Luo destroyed the Token, effectively cutting off their only retreat.

Xin Lan glared at him, frustrated, ”I really don’t understand what you’re thinking; wouldn’t it be good to leave a way out for ourselves?”

Hearing her words, Ye Luo burst into laughter, ”When I, Ye Luo, do something, I don’t need any way out; even if I know it’s a dead end, I will make something of it!”

With that said, he took a great stride over the low wall, and immediately, his body bent slightly, indicating the tremendous force of the Space-Time Law, even stronger than the Law Strength during nighttime in the safe zone.

Of course, this was also because Ye Luo hadn’t utilized the armor’s power.

However, upon hearing Ye Luo’s words, the two women’s eyes suddenly lit up.

A man who is so confident in a desperate situation is indeed the most charismatic.

Subsequently, the Third Princess activated the armor’s power, and the two women also entered the Space-Time Channel.

Even so, they felt immense pressure; the armor’s power consumption was quite terrifying, likely depleting by nightfall.

Fortunately, they had the tent; otherwise, without the armor, the two women would surely face peril, or rely on Ye Luo’s protection to barely survive.

Thus, the significance of the base was quite immense.

Even though Ye Luo seemed relaxed earlier, gradually, he was also finding it hard to bear.

After all, he had not used any Mana, nor the Terminal Battle Armor, relying solely on his physical strength to resist, which was quite an achievement; even a Law Enforcer’s body couldn’t manage that.

He couldn’t help but think that the Law Enforcers and Uncle Hong would likely be in a similar predicament since they had no armor nor tents for resting, relying entirely on Mana; the Law Enforcers perhaps managed better, but Uncle Hong was surely in danger, as the Law Enforcers wouldn’t waste extra Mana to aid Uncle Hong.

With a sigh, Ye Luo also had to activate his battle armor; naturally, this was his first time entering this Space-Time storm, and after acclimating for a period, his physical body could endure longer.

”Not good, the armor has sounded an alarm; we must rest!” Xin Lan’s face suddenly changed as she urgently said.

If the armor were damaged, she might have to return to base, and in that case, all the data would have to depend on Ye Luo to provide, lacking much accuracy, unlike now, where much of the data was directly obtained through Xin Lan, as Ye Luo and the base were not in the same space at all.

And Ye Luo also wanted a break; having just entered this realm, they needed more rest to adapt to the outside environment.

After all, once acclimated, the environment’s harm to them wouldn’t be as severe.

Subsequently, the three set up the tent, though in this place, it was precarious, with consumption more than doubling from the safe zone, but this was expected; with the current base foundation, it could still support them.

Despite what Xin Lan said earlier, the Zhongzhou Empire is a technological nation, and the resources in the Heart of Technology are quite astonishing.

Of course, they wouldn’t place all these resources on Xin Lan; otherwise, staying here for years wouldn’t be an issue.

But in that case, the Heart of Technology would fail, as that doesn’t conform with the programming in the Heart of Technology.

However, once inside the tent, it was still so peaceful, like stepping into a different world, completely unaffected by the outside environment.

”Damn it, I’m really fed up!” Xin Lan immediately removed the armor, tossed it aside, disregarding any image, and collapsed onto the bed, quickly falling into a deep sleep.

After all, she was not a Cultivator; her body was quite fragile, and even within the armor, the physical exertion was immense.

Perhaps ordinary people wouldn’t withstand it, which shows her strong determination.

Of course, she would certainly not cultivate any Cultivation Technique, being a genuine person of the Zhongzhou Empire, holding a strict faith, and Cultivation originated from the invaders of long ago, the enemies of the Zhongzhou Empire, how could she cultivate the enemies’ methods? It was rare enough she didn’t oppose cultivators like Ye Luo.

”Let’s rest a bit too!” Ye Luo said to the Third Princess.

Subsequently, the two also lay down on the bed and soon fell into a deep slumber.

In such an environment, maintaining a good mental state was crucial, and without prolonged rest, constantly being in the adverse environment, even a cultivator of Ye Luo’s level would see mental state deterioration, gradually leading to the risk of collapse.

Whether cultivator or ordinary person, sleep is undoubtedly the best way to adjust one’s mental state; a good sleep naturally restores tranquility.

However, this time, they couldn’t sleep for a whole night; as soon as the armor recharged fully, they promptly got up and took down the tent.

After all, the tent’s consumption far exceeded that of the armor several times over.

”Which direction should we go? Has the base not detected it yet?” Ye Luo asked loudly.

Although visibility was good here, and the terrain flat, everything looked barren, making it difficult to distinguish directions.

”Don’t rush, it’s not that simple; the base isn’t omnipotent, don’t forget, the base hasn’t finished upgrading yet, and the dense Space-time Law around greatly hampers detection! Let’s keep moving in the direction we chose earlier!” Xin Lan said helplessly.

Her mental state wasn’t pleasant at the moment; being in the armor was a torment, and even during the previous epic battle, she hadn’t stayed in the armor for such a long time.

Moreover, the armor excelled in offense but was somewhat lacking in defense.
