The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 461: Chapter 461 Continue to Break Through Chapter 461: Chapter 461 Continue to Break Through Mr.

Yin was truly astounded at this moment.

The black sword light he stimulated swept through that area of space without hindrance and then slowly dissipated.

Yet, Jing Yan’s figure had completely disappeared from his sight.

How is that possible?

Mr.

Yin’s figure flickered, and he arrived at the spot where Jing Yan had vanished.

He meticulously examined his surroundings, his brow furrowing tighter and tighter.

There were only a few possibilities for a person to vanish into thin air.

If Jing Yan’s strength had been much greater than Mr.

Yin’s, and he possessed some kind of concealment technique, then it might be possible for him to disappear right under Mr.

Yin’s nose.

However, Jing Yan’s strength was certainly not above his own.

Even if Jing Yan did possess a concealment technique, he couldn’t have vanished without a trace right in front of a master assassin who was adept at concealing himself.

The second possibility was that there was some hidden ancient relic or something similar nearby.

Suppose Jing Yan appeared here, and an ancient relic suddenly opened and sucked him in.

Thinking of this second possibility, even a person like Mr.

Yin was slightly moved.

If he had discovered an ancient relic, that would be an enormous opportunity.

On this continent, there often were rumors that someone had discovered an ancient relic or cave mansion somewhere.

But for most martial artists, such rumors were too distant; many might go their entire lives without ever entering any ancient relics.

Too many martial artists, too few relics!

And those who could enter such ancient relics or cave mansions multiple times were all controlled by major powers, leaving no chance for outsiders to enter.

With a slightly excited mindset, Mr.

Yin carefully investigated for more than thirty minutes, but ultimately, he found nothing.

If there was an ancient relic or something similar nearby, yet invisible to the naked eye, it meant that the ancient relic was hidden by a formation.

While Mr.

Yin’s own abilities were not meager, he could miss a general Concealment Formation if he weren’t paying attention; however, he was inspecting very carefully now and still found nothing, meaning either the Concealment Formation was too powerful or there simply was no Concealment Formation.

The third possibility was that Jing Yan himself carried a cave mansion treasure.

Cave mansion treasures were different from things like space rings; space rings were inert, and living beings could not enter them.

Cave mansion treasures, however, operated on complete Dao rules, allowing living beings to enter them.

Any cave mansion treasure was priceless.

On the Heavenly Origin Continent, only very few people possessed such treasures, and each one was immensely powerful.

Ordinary artifact refiners on the continent couldn’t create such treasures.

Thinking that Jing Yan might possess a cave mansion treasure made Mr.

Yin’s eyes blaze with fervor.

Under normal circumstances, Mr.

Yin would never believe that a martial artist of Jing Yan’s cultivation could possess a cave mansion treasure.

But having weighed the possibilities, he now felt it more likely that Jing Yan had such a treasure—after all, a living person couldn’t just disappear into thin air.

Mr.

Yin began searching again, meticulously scouring every inch of the space.

Cave mansion treasures were not invisible and intangible.

Although it was a type of space treasure, it couldn’t be wholly void.

Thus Mr.

Yin was certain that if Jing Yan had a cave mansion treasure, it must be within this area.

With careful searching, he would eventually find it.

Jing Yan entered the Qiankun Space and let out a long breath.

At the last moment, Mr.

Yin had launched another fierce attack on him; his chances of withstanding it, given his current condition, were less than one in ten.

Luckily, he had entered the Qiankun Space just in time to dodge the attack.

The Qiankun Space then merged into the surrounding environment like a grain of dust.

Though temporarily hidden, Jing Yan felt no decrease in pressure.

If the Qiankun Space were discovered, he would undoubtedly face catastrophe.

Not to mention his current status as a minor martial artist in the Late Dao Spirit Realm, even if he were ten times stronger, he likely would have a hard time surviving.

The Qiankun Space was no ordinary cave mansion treasure.

The Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill, the Qiankun Pill Path, the Qiankun Artifact Dao, the Qiankun Array Path, and others were all too heaven-defying.

Any of these abilities, if leaked, would shake the entire continent.

Therefore, Jing Yan had no time to waste.

He quickly sat down, took some Healing Pills, and began to rapidly absorb the energy from top-grade Spirit Stones and various Elixirs using the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill.

A day later, Jing Yan’s injuries and Primordial Energy were fully recovered.

His cultivation in the Late Dao Spirit Realm had also stabilized.

Now, invoking his Primordial Energy was much smoother than when he had been chased by Dark Night Master Yin.

If he had to face Mr.

Yin again, he should be able to hold out for a longer time.

Even so, Jing Yan knew well that he was no match for Mr.

Yin.

“Senior Tianshui!” Jing Yan called out to Tianshui.

As soon as his words fell, Tianshui appeared before him.

“Has that Dark Night Assassin left?” Jing Yan’s hopeful eyes gazed at Tianshui.

He couldn’t show himself now; if Mr.

Yin had not left and he revealed himself, his only option would be to hide in the Qiankun Space again.

And should he resort to such a measure a second time, the likelihood of the Qiankun Space being exposed would drastically increase.

“That chap is still searching for you!

From the look of it, he seems prepared to dig three feet into the ground!” Tianshui shook his head.

Tianshui could easily investigate the outside situation.

A martial artist of Mr.

Yin’s cultivation level had absolutely no way to sense Tianshui’s presence.

“Damn it!” Jing Yan cursed quietly.

“Jing Yan!

That chap seems determined not to stop until he finds you.

I think you’d better try to elevate your realm to the Peak of the Dao Spirit Realm, which might give you a fighting chance!” Tianshui suggested.

“That might be my only option,” Jing Yan nodded in agreement.

After a brief preparation, Jing Yan closed his eyes and began absorbing the Divine Dao Pill in his abdomen.

As days passed, it had been a full week since Jing Yan entered the Qiankun Space.

Mr.

Yin’s eyes still glinted with a greenish hue, intently staring at the spot where Jing Yan had vanished.

He had already meticulously searched this space more than ten times, yet he still hadn’t found the cave mansion treasure.

Indeed, it wasn’t fair to say Mr.

Yin was unlucky.

The fact was, the Qiankun Space was of such a high level that, once transformed into dust, it was nearly indistinguishable from ordinary dust.

Not only would a martial artist of Mr.

Yin’s caliber have a hard time discovering the Qiankun Space transformed into dust, but even one a whole realm stronger than Mr.

Yin would likely struggle to detect it.
