162: Chapter 161 The World of the Dead

Since he had already arrived in this world.

Then Ye Xiu would abide by the rules set by the Lord of Guixu.

As for finding the old man's personality and consciousness, it was not too difficult in modern society; after all, as long as one could utilize the Great Xia investigation System, finding a person was quite easy.

The greatest difficulty.

Was how to leave.

The old man had made it sound simple before, but after Ye Xiu truly arrived in this world, he realized the difficulty of leaving was almost unimaginable.

Invisible rules bound this world.

To transcend from it.

One must use extremely tyrannical Cultivation to break through the barriers of heaven and earth, so as to achieve the effect of Ascension and thereby transcend this world.

This was the only path left by the Lord of Guixu.

"My own strength is infinitely suppressed; wanting to reach the stage of Ascension will likely take some time, but..."

Thinking of this.

Ye Xiu reached out and summoned.

The wangquan sword hidden in his Bloodline was immediately summoned out.

Feeling the power of death within the sword body.

He felt slightly relieved in his heart.

"As expected, the power of death belongs to the Lord of Guixu and has not been suppressed. If I have the support of these powers, it won't be long before my Heavenly Emperor Sutra and [Law-Breaking Path] grow to an incredibly terrifying level."

Thinking this way.

He put away the wangquan sword and slowly stood up.

Tap, tap, tap...

The crisp sound of footsteps was extremely clear in the quiet library.

Soon.

Ye Xiu walked out of the library.

He looked at the bustling street with cars coming and going.

After pondering for a few seconds, he flew straight up and began to step through the air towards the direction outside the city.

This scene.

Instantly attracted everyone's shocked gaze.

"Holy crap... a flying man?"

"Mom, look quickly, there is an immortal in the sky..."

Countless people took out their mobile phones and began to record the scene before them.

Beep... beep... beep...

The street was extremely chaotic.

Among those who stopped to take pictures were drivers who were in the middle of driving; their behavior of arbitrarily parking their vehicles on the road immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the cars behind.

The scolding mixed with the sound of horns, appearing very chaotic.

"What are you looking at? There are no immortals, it's all special effects, it's special effects... The guy in front, I'll smash your phone, believe it or not?"

Amidst the scolding and exclamations.

Ye Xiu's figure gradually disappeared into the sky.

After several hours of flight.

On the desolate land, he saw a small hill about three hundred meters high, and after thinking for a few seconds, he landed directly on the top of the hill.

There were many weeds here, and there wasn't even a road, so it was obvious that few people came here.

Hum...

The wangquan sword condensed in his hand.

Ye Xiu looked at the slightly trembling sword body; the restraints of heaven and earth here affected even the wangquan sword.

He shook his head slightly.

Without too much hesitation.

He directly took a black barb from the sword body.

Boom...

The barb was very heavy.

The moment it appeared, it smashed a horizontal ditch more than ten meters long into the ground.

"The power of death has not been suppressed."

Looking at the barb emitting a black ghostly light, there was a trace of realization in Ye Xiu's eyes.

The power of death is the power of the Lord of Guixu, and it is normal that it is not affected in this world; after all, normal people would not set restraints on themselves.

With the beginning of absorption.

In the Sea of Consciousness.

The ancient runes of the Heavenly Emperor Sutra were vibrating.

This Cultivation Technique, which is legendary in the Immortal Domain and belongs to the Heavenly Emperor, immediately had a chemical reaction after encountering the power of death, exploding with quite a bit of black flame.

Ye Xiu saw this scene.

Immediately increased the operating speed of the Cultivation Technique.

Boom...

The black barb was trembling.

Streams of death power flowed out from the barb, turning into wisps of black mist.

Pouring into Ye Xiu's body.

Looking from afar.

At this moment, Ye Xiu was like a Devil Head, his whole body shrouded in black mist, and the terrifying power of death was rapidly absorbed as the Heavenly Emperor Sutra operated.

Whoosh...

In the Sea of Consciousness.

The ancient runes transformed by the Heavenly Emperor Sutra were operating at high speed.

As a large amount of death power was absorbed into the Sea of Consciousness, the entire Sea of Consciousness space was completely ignited.

The black flame was like ghost fire from Hell.

It was much stronger than the flame transformed by the purple qi back then.

This terrifying flame power seemed to be formed after some kind of great power mutation; the Heavenly Emperor Sutra in the Sea of Consciousness, under the blessing of the flame, was originally at a Realm that could not be advanced further.

Actually began to loosen.

As time passed.

The black flame began to spread out from the Sea of Consciousness, and in a short while, it completely ignited the entire body.

Sizzle...

Immortal power was tempered out again.

This process was very slow.

But for Ye Xiu's current Realm, every bit of his own improvement should have required countless years of polishing, but under the blessing of the power of death.

This step was infinitely reduced.

It was just like using a cheat.

...

...

More than ten days later.

Three young people with extremely agile skills came to the small hill.

They looked at Ye Xiu, who was sitting cross-legged and shrouded in black gas, and all frowned deeply.

"Boss, could this guy be practicing some Demonic Technique?"

"This has nothing to do with us, just execute the mission, don't ask about other things."

The leader looked about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, was extremely strong, and over two meters tall.

The three stood beside Ye Xiu for a long while.

Ye Xiu stopped Cultivating and slowly opened his eyes.

"Something up?"

"We are from the Great Xia Research Center for Abnormal Humans..."

"From the mental hospital?"

Ye Xiu frowned slightly. What was the situation? Logically speaking, given his high-profile actions, shouldn't he be classified as special talent?

How did he get targeted by a mental hospital?

Cough...

The leader smiled awkwardly: "Not a mental hospital, it's the Research Center for Abnormal Humans."

"I am not a mental patient. If there is nothing else, you can go."

"Your Excellency, it's like this: several researchers from our institute saw the video of you walking in the air some time ago, so we would like to invite you to join us."

"Invite me? To be a researcher? Or to be a research subject?"

Ye Xiu's tone became a bit unfriendly.

He acted in a high-profile manner to attract important departments of Great Xia, not to be a mental patient.

"Actually, Your Excellency has misunderstood. Our institute does not study mental patients. The researchers in the institute only study non-technological powers. Your Excellency's strength will be of great help to our research."

"In other words, you want me to be a guinea pig?"

"No... no, the institute is directly under the jurisdiction of Great Xia and is a legitimate unit. Every member in the institute, just like Your Excellency, has power that transcends ordinary humans."

"Uh..."

Hearing the other party's explanation.

Ye Xiu finally understood that this so-called Research Center for Abnormal Humans was a gathering place for special talents.

Looking at the leader who was still explaining.

He shook his head slightly, with a little doubt.

He asked: "What about the Dragon team? For unconventional combat power, shouldn't it be the Dragon team coming? Why is it your institute coming to find me?"

"Dragon team? Hehe... Your Excellency has misunderstood. The Dragon team is just a rumor. For people like you, it is uniformly managed by the Research Center for Abnormal Humans."

"Forget it, it doesn't matter, lead the way."

Ye Xiu waved his hand slightly.

The barb on the ground disappeared instantly.

"Spatial ability?"

The three were shocked; the young man in front of them was even more terrifying than they had imagined; he had actually mastered spatial techniques.

"Nothing to be surprised about, hurry up and lead the way."

Ye Xiu urged impatiently.

In this world established by the Lord of Guixu, these humans were generally evolved from the undead; they were like programs inscribed into a computer.

If there were no abnormalities.

They would never be able to transcend.

Those with good luck would live as humans for a lifetime, and those with bad luck would directly enter the path of beasts.

"This way, Your Excellency."

The three dared not neglect and hurriedly led the way.

Watching the few people walking down the mountain.

Ye Xiu frowned slightly; it seemed he had not been valued.

When he arrived at that institute, he would have to find a few troublemakers to establish his authority so that the upper echelons of Great Xia would pay attention to him.

Only if his own authority was great enough.

Could he quickly find the old man's personality and consciousness in this vast sea of people.

After all, in this world created by the Lord of Guixu, his own perception had already been infinitely suppressed; being able to detect one hundred meters was considered quite good.

If he relied on himself to search.

It would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
