313: Terror exists

Days following the army were dull.

Harvests mostly depended on luck.

The turbulence caused by the army would churn up various resources.

If someone obtained something, they had to pay a tax.

Lu Yiyi's fleet was doing alright, paying sixty percent.

The Loose Cultivators following behind were even more exaggerated, having to pay ninety-eight percent!

"Don't worry, following the army is very safe."

Lu Yiyi came to Ye Su's side and said;

"This army is led by an Ascension Level Eight powerhouse; they basically sweep through world after world."

"Don't look at how much tax is paid; the consumption is also huge."

"Look at this army formation; to maintain it, a massive amount of Spiritual Qi is burned every second."

"Even the operation of core equipment requires Heavenly Will as raw material."

It was indeed exaggerated.

One couldn't see the full scale of the army.

But the thought of it crushing through world after world was terrifying.

"Are there no terrifying existences in the Calamity Chaos?"

Ye Su was curious.

If the Calamity Chaos was truly a treasure land where one could take whatever they wanted, it wouldn't be like this.

The Universe would have come to sweep through it whenever they were free.

"Of course there are,"

Lu Yiyi said;

"There are rumors that civilizations are flourishing deep within the Calamity Chaos, but I don't know if it's true or false."

"As for terrifying existences, it's best if we don't encounter them, otherwise... it's truly horrifying!"

In the history of The Universe's exploration of the Calamity Chaos, it wasn't as if there were no failures.

It was just that when they failed, it was extremely tragic.

Countless lives would evaporate in an instant.

Even powerhouses could not escape.

They couldn't even send out a message.

It was as if this matchless army was insta-killed in an instant.

"You'd better not be a jinx," Lu Yiyi said;

"If we really encounter a terrifying existence, it's a certain death sentence."

The probability was very low.

So Lu Yiyi didn't mind.

However—"Is there a sun in the Calamity Chaos?"

Ye Su suddenly asked.

"Of course not."

"Then... what's that? If it's not a sun, what is it?"

"Huh?"

"Ah!!!"

Suddenly.

The two of them stood frozen on the spot.

The terrifying torrent of the army flowed like a world.

However...

Above this 'world', a sun abruptly appeared.

A sun that filled the depths of one's heart with countless chills.

"Ye... Ye Su... you jinx!!"

Lu Yiyi's entire body was trembling.

The terrifying existences of the Calamity world were no joke.

They either don't appear,

But once they do, it leads to the direct annihilation of the entire army!

"It's over, we're going to die!"

In just a short moment,

Despair circulated through the army.

The change was too fast.

And there was no warning whatsoever.

After all, in the Calamity Chaos, many things were chaotic.

An Ascension Level Eight powerhouse was already very, very top-tier.

Never mind walking sideways in The Universe; even in the Calamity Chaos, they were incredibly powerful.

At least against the various types of Chaos in the Chaos, they were fearless and could suppress them all.

However...

The Ascension Level Eight powerhouse of this army,

Trembled all over the moment he saw that Great Sun.

His face, which hadn't changed for ten thousand years, was already covered in beads of sweat.

What others saw was a Great Sun.

In his eyes, it was nothing of the sort.

He saw a person!

A person holding a long sword!

That person's aura was so fierce, it was like a Great Sun!

"Damn it!"

The Ascension Level Eight powerhouse suddenly moved.

He struck out fiercely toward the distance.

A time tunnel was directly blasted open!

With a flash of his figure,

He actually began to flee directly.

As for the army—at a time like this, who could still care about the army!

Saving his own life was what mattered.

"So... did he flee?"

Under the Great Sun,

A passage directly connected to the distance.

The powerhouse rushed straight toward the passage to escape!

"Ye Su, we're finished!"

Lu Yiyi was truly in despair; encountering a terrifying existence in the Calamity Chaos,

There was no hope for survival.

Ye Su also furrowed his brows.

Could this be fate?

Does Lu Yiyi have to die?

One hurdle after another, Lu Yiyi had survived because of Ye Su's presence.

But after merging with the army, this hurdle actually followed them, and the scale had reached this level!

Even an Ascension Level Eight powerhouse fled in panic.

People like them at Ascension Level Two or Ascension Three—they were no different from ants!

Chirp—Ye Su couldn't help but blink.

From within that Great Sun,

A sword light flew out.

It shot straight for that passage.

Then, a miserable scream.

That Ascension Level Eight powerhouse was actually sliced into fine powder by a single sword strike.

No.

He couldn't even put up a bit of resistance?

That was Ascension Level Eight!

He died just like that?

Just what kind of existences are bred within you, Calamity Chaos!

"This time it's really over!"

Ye Su gave a bitter smile.

Lu Yiyi's life really couldn't be saved.

This is your damn fate.

A fate of certain death!

Now he had gotten himself dragged down too.

"Can I only write a suicide note? It seems I should explain: don't save Lu Yiyi, she's a massive pit!"

Ye Su had no other options.

They weren't even on the same level.

He didn't even have the qualification to feel despair!

One sword strike!

Another sword light shot out from that sun.

The army!

It was collapsing.

No, it should be said it was directly disappearing.

Under this sword strike, even your ashes were scattered!

"Lu Yiyi!"

Ye Su shouted.

"What?"

Lu Yiyi's heart was like dead ashes; there was nothing left to say.

Waiting for death was all that remained.

"Give me a hug, I've lost so much!"

An anonymous fire burned in Ye Su's heart.

He really lost big time!

At this moment, he was being childish and petty.

Since they were going to die anyway, it didn't matter if his image dropped.

"Fine, it doesn't matter if I let you take some advantage of me—"

Lu Yiyi crashed into Ye Su's arms.

She hugged him tightly.

They were dead for sure anyway, so who cared if anyone saw?

"Sigh..."

"You really are a massive pit!"

Ye Su was speechless, just waiting for death.

However...

When the sword light was descending upon them,

Ye Su's pupils suddenly shrank.

Even the sword light was trembling!

The existence within the sun also shook violently.

"It's you!"

"It's you!"

The lips of both men moved slightly, yet they spoke the same words.

Then.

The sword light flicked.

Ye Su and Lu Yiyi were forcibly carried away from this area.

Ye Su's eyes stared fixedly at him.

"Zhang Huai, so this is your future!"

The army.

Annihilated!

Tens of millions of powerhouses had all fallen.

Only Ye Su and Lu Yiyi survived.

They were thrown directly out of the Calamity Chaos by a sword light.

---Deep within the Calamity Chaos.

On a blue planet.

Zhang Huai stood beside a grave.

"Great Master, I saw Ye Su."

"So, he is the future!"

"The past cannot be redeemed—that's what the Lord often says."

"But my past was redeemed by him."

"Without that gift, I wouldn't have become a taboo existence."

Zhang Huai held his head high.

"Great Master, there should be a next time."

"Do you think..."

"Is it possible that one day your grave will disappear, and you, having become a Sovereign, will stand before me?"

"The past can be redeemed, and the future can be changed."

Under the falling leaves, Zhang Huai left.

The lonely tombstone was silhouetted against the setting sun.

It was inscribed;

Tomb of You Gu!
