Martial Arts are Too Involuted, and If You are Not Careful, You Can Quickly Pass the High Martial Arts

83: Broken space stone fragments, three layers of shackles!In the end, Ye Chen had no choice but to accept this mode where he couldn’t get things for free.

”Forget it, forget it. Since I’m here, I’ll make the best of it. It’s just academic credits, isn’t it?”

Ye Chen shook his head, completely casting aside those thoughts in his mind. Then, he went to the Cloud Domain Space, preparing to Cultivate diligently during the last seven days before heading to Star River Academy.

Although the College Entrance Examination was over, Ye Chen’s use of the Cloud Domain Space was naturally not hindered by anyone.

After all, everyone knew that Ye Chen had secured the top spot in the College Entrance Examination, and this achievement had brought Jiangnan Province a significant allocation of resources.

A Rank 4 Another Dimension… compared to the returns Ye Chen brought them, it was a drop in the bucket.

It could be said that as long as Ye Chen didn’t blow up the Cloud Domain Space, they wouldn’t even bother to interfere.

And to blow up an Another Dimension… even a Ninth-Order Expert couldn’t do it!

Don’t let it seem like it’s just a Rank 4 Another Dimension; it involves many things. A Ninth-Order Expert can at most destroy Rank 1 to Rank 3 Another Dimensions, but they cannot shake a Rank 4 Another Dimension.

Otherwise, Great Xia wouldn’t have so many Another Dimensions.

Ye Chen arrived at the depths of the Cloud Domain Space, but he pouted.

”A Rank 4 Another Dimension is still somewhat trash. For my current improvement… it’s too slow.”

”Forget it, even mosquito meat is still meat. It’s better than nothing!”

Given the conditions of Jiangnan Training Camp, Ye Chen had to accept reality and began to Cultivate within the Cloud Domain Space.

Time also flowed away, little by little, as Ye Chen Cultivated.

Soon, five days passed.

Ye Chen sat cross-legged in the depths of the Cloud Domain Space, slowly opening his eyes. However, a hint of irritation, more or less, appeared between his brows.

”Why… do I always feel somewhat restless?”

For some reason, ever since Ye Chen entered the Cloud Domain Space this time, he always felt out of sorts, as if his heart was being gnawed by ants.

He had been unable to calm down and Cultivate.

With a thought, the System panel slowly appeared.

name: Ye Chen

cultivation: Shackled Martial Artist (5/100)

Ba Zhou Breathing Technique: Minor Achievement (68/100)

Flowing Light Phantom Step: Minor Achievement (68/100)

Silent Extinction Sword Art: Major Achievement (30/100)

Sword Intent: Beginner (55/100)

”Five days have passed, and I haven’t even broken through to the second layer of shackles. This speed is a bit too slow!”

Ye Chen rubbed his temples, but the feeling of vexation in his heart still hadn’t dissipated from his mind.

Instead, as Ye Chen rubbed his temples, it became even more irritable.

Ye Chen slowly stood up. At this moment, he was already in the deepest part of the Cloud Domain Space. All around him was a vast expanse of white, but as Ye Chen Cultivated, the white mist formed by the energy had dimmed somewhat.

At this point, Ye Chen could even see the scenery within a hundred-meter radius.

Ye Chen looked towards the deeper direction, and faintly, he could see something like a spatial barrier, separating things there.

Through that spatial barrier, he could only see endless darkness.

Ye Chen knew… beyond that spatial barrier was another world.

He only learned all this after joining the Jiangnan Training Camp.

No one knew how Another Dimensions came into being, but after many years of research by countless researchers in Great Xia, one reason finally gained widespread acceptance.

That is, Another Dimensions are actually passages to another world!

Through Another Dimensions, people from Blue Star can go to another world, and creatures from another world can also descend upon Blue Star!

Otherwise, why would Vicious Beasts be born within Another Dimensions?

Why would those Vicious Beasts appear out of thin air when Another Dimensions are born?

Why… when an Another Dimension upgrades, even if there are no higher-Rank Vicious Beasts within that Another Dimension, higher-Rank Vicious Beasts can still appear out of nowhere?

It all boils down to one word… Another Dimensions are passages to another world!

And those Vicious Beasts come from another world; this Another Dimension is the passage from their world to Blue Star.

The Vicious Beasts… also want to use this passage to occupy Blue Star!

”A passage to… another world?”

A peculiar light flickered in Ye Chen’s eyes, but it was unclear what Ye Chen was contemplating at this moment.

Ye Chen slowly walked towards the spatial barrier, stopping directly in front of the mirror-like spatial barrier.

Looking at the transparent yet insurmountable spatial barrier, Ye Chen slowly extended his hand and touched it.

The next moment… Ye Chen’s finger instantly retracted, and the part of his finger that touched the spatial barrier was already scorched black.

It was as if… it had been seared by a blazing fire.

”Spatial barrier… it can’t be touched, or rather, my strength isn’t enough to touch the spatial barrier yet.”

Ye Chen looked at his finger, deep in thought.

And just at this moment, a thought involuntarily surfaced in Ye Chen’s mind.

This thought… seemed to be guiding Ye Chen to find something.

Ye Chen slowly closed his eyes.

”Is this thought guiding me… the source of my recent irritability?”

Ye Chen spoke softly, beginning to accept the thought that had appeared in his mind. He followed the guidance of the thought, slowly walking in a certain direction.

Even though his eyes were closed, Ye Chen seemed to be able to sense his surroundings, easily bypassing obstacles, and finally coming to a stop.

When Ye Chen opened his eyes again, he found himself standing at another position on the spatial barrier.

And in front of Ye Chen… there was a white jade-colored stone, quietly embedded within the spatial barrier, emitting a special energy fluctuation.

”Hmm?”

Ye Chen looked at the white jade-colored stone, momentarily stunned, a hint of confusion appearing in his eyes.

Simply because… Ye Chen didn’t recognize this stone at all.

Even the energy fluctuations emanating from the stone felt extremely unfamiliar to Ye Chen.

”What… is this thing?”

Ye Chen scratched his head.

”So the thought in my mind just now was guiding me to find this thing?”

”But the energy within this thing isn’t Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, so what use could it be?”

Ye Chen looked at the white jade-colored stone with some confusion.

And just at this moment, a line of text quietly appeared in Ye Chen’s vision.

”Detected a damaged space stone shard. Do you wish to devour it?”

With the appearance of this line of text, Ye Chen finally figured out the name of the white jade-colored stone.

”space stone? Damaged?”

”What is it?”

Ye Chen rubbed his chin, pondering for a moment.

”The System shouldn’t display such a pop-up out of nowhere. Since the System says it can be devoured, it should be beneficial to me.”

A glint of light flickered in Ye Chen’s eyes, and then he made a decision.

”Devour!”

Ye Chen’s heart stirred slightly.

Immediately after, a profound fluctuation spread out from Ye Chen’s body, as if possessing an immense gravitational pull, forcefully pulling the damaged space stone shard, which had been submerged in the spatial barrier, into the position of Ye Chen’s Dantian.

Following that, a streak of black light flashed, pulling the space stone shard along with it into Ye Chen’s Dantian, finally disappearing.

After quite some time, Ye Chen suddenly felt an extremely pure energy surge through his body.

Under the impact of this energy, Ye Chen felt as if a series of crisp sounds of something breaking were resounding within his body.

”Refined damaged space stone shard, cultivation progress +20!”

As this line of text appeared, Ye Chen’s pupils suddenly constricted, and then a powerful aura surged out from Ye Chen’s body.

Rumble!!!

The powerful aura instantly caused the entire Another Dimension to tremble, and the white mist diffused throughout the Heaven and Earth was instantly dispersed.

”This… this increased cultivation progress by twenty points??”

Ye Chen was astonished by the text in front of him.

One must know that he had Cultivated in this Rank 4 Another Dimension for five days, and only increased his cultivation progress by a few points.

And merely devouring a damaged space stone shard directly increased his progress by twenty points?

Ye Chen felt as if he was dreaming, but the terrifying power within his body reminded Ye Chen that this was not a dream!

But a real existence!

”Hiss!”

Ye Chen felt the surging energy fluctuations within his body, and couldn’t help but gasp.

”This damaged space stone shard is a bit too terrifying!”

Saying that, Ye Chen’s mind moved, and the System panel reappeared.

name: Ye Chen

cultivation: Shackled Martial Artist (25/100)

Ba Zhou Breathing Technique: Minor Achievement (68/100)

Flowing Light Phantom Step: Minor Achievement (68/100)

Silent Extinction Sword Art: Major Achievement (30/100)

Sword Intent: Beginner (55/100)

”So… I’ve reached the third layer of shackles?”

Ye Chen looked at the panel, in shock.

However, this shock did not last for too long. A crisp sound resonated between Heaven and Earth, instantly pulling Ye Chen back from his astonishment.

”What is it?”

Ye Chen looked in the direction of the sound, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

He saw that the incredibly hard spatial barrier, now with the disappearance of the damaged space stone shard, seemed to have become incredibly fragile.

A crack quietly appeared.

And as time passed, more cracks gradually climbed up, eventually covering the entire spatial barrier.

”Holy crap!”

Seeing the dense, spiderweb-like cracks in front of him, Ye Chen’s heart immediately jumped.

”This Another Dimension… isn’t going to explode, is it?!”
