108: Space and the stars!

Void Predator (leader boss)

Level: 29

Health: 60000 / 60000

Physical Attack: 6000 / Magic Attack: 6000

Physical Defense: 6000 / Magic Defense: 6000

Description: Spatial Blink (short-range teleportation between spatial fragments, appearing and disappearing unpredictably); Void Slash (scythe swing can tear space, forming temporary spatial rifts to cut targets, ignoring most physical defense); Phase Shift (body can temporarily enter a spatial interstice, evading physical and energy attacks); Spatial Anchoring (emits void energy chains, temporarily confining the target's surrounding space, restricting movement); Predatory Instinct (attacks are swift, precise, and lethal, focusing on vital points).

The moment the Void Predator appeared, the surrounding spatial fragments seemed to come alive, beginning to move. It flickered and leaped between the fragments like a ghost, making it difficult for Chu Yixing to lock onto its figure.

Each appearance of the Void Predator was accompanied by a deadly Void Slash. Chu Yixing jumped and moved on the floating spatial fragments, dodging the slashes and the spatial rifts formed after the space was torn.

Taking advantage of the moment the Void Predator briefly revealed itself, a sword qi, too fast for the naked eye to catch, slashed towards it. However, the Void Predator activated Phase Shift, its entire body entering a spatial interstice, evading Chu Yixing's attack. The moment it reappeared, several void energy chains wrapped around Chu Yixing.

Chu Yixing continuously swung his sword qi, severing these void energy chains. The sword qi and void energy constantly collided, making the already unstable space even more volatile. Black holes with extremely strong suction appeared all around, seemingly capable of devouring everything.

The battle between Chu Yixing and the Void Predator became a chase and counterattack in the shattered space.

After several attacks yielded no results, the Void Predator began to grow agitated. During another fragment teleportation, it appeared less than a meter in front of Chu Yixing. Its compound eyes locked onto Chu Yixing, and its scythe, carrying a cold light that tore through space, slashed towards Chu Yixing's neck at an extremely high speed.

Chu Yixing's pupils contracted as he saw the sudden appearance of the Void Predator and its sudden attack. He only had time to horizontally block with the green lotus immortal sword in his hand.

The void scythe and the green lotus immortal sword collided violently, and a shockwave spread out like a storm. The space began to vibrate intensely, and both Chu Yixing and the Void Predator were shaken back several steps by the impact.

Taking advantage of the Void Predator's large size and its inability to stabilize itself, Chu Yixing continuously swung the green lotus immortal sword in his hand. Streams of sword qi accurately slashed at its compound eyes, which were composed of spatial prisms.

...High damage values rose into the air, and half of the spatial prisms forming the Void Predator's compound eyes shattered instantly.

The Void Predator's health instantly dropped by one-third. It opened its mouth, emitting a silent shriek. The surrounding spatial fragments were agitated by its shriek, pressing towards Chu Yixing, and Void Slashes also came from various tricky angles.

Chu Yixing continuously dodged the fragments and Void Slashes in the limited space. His protective shield and body-guarding sword qi had been broken in the previous stage and were on cooldown.

However, the spatial fragments and Void Slashes were continuous, and Chu Yixing could not completely dodge them.

...Chu Yixing did not simply dodge. Instead, he dodged while predicting the Void Predator's appearance location. As long as his prediction was correct, several sword qi attacks awaited the Void Predator.

The Void Predator's health was down to 20000, and Chu Yixing's health had also dropped to 50%. At this point, the passive skill "Sword Qi Body Protection" carried by the green lotus sword casket was activated. A shield made of sword qi formed around Chu Yixing's body, and at the same time, his defense surged for a short period.

Chu Yixing no longer dodged the almost negligible damage. Instead, he focused his senses, trying to lock onto the Void Predator. He only had 10 seconds.

2 seconds passed, 4 seconds passed, 6 seconds passed... Chu Yixing finally completely locked onto the Void Predator's figure. The Myriad Swords Return to the Origin had long been ready. The moment the Void Predator appeared, a giant illusory spirit sword accurately pierced its forehead, passed through the back of its head, and disappeared into the distant void.

The flickering figure of the Void Predator suddenly stiffened, and the spatial fluctuations on its body slowly disappeared. The spatial fragments pressing in from all sides stopped in place, and the Void Slashes also vanished.

Killed Level 29 leader boss Void Predator, Experience + 60000, Copper Coins + 60000.

The Void Predator's lifeless body gradually became transparent. Streams of spatial energy were forcibly extracted and fused by an invisible force, and a rotating teleportation vortex slowly formed not far from Chu Yixing.

Chu Yixing ignored the teleportation vortex and began to recover his lost health and spirit.

About 15 minutes later, Chu Yixing stood up and approached the teleportation vortex expressionlessly. A suction force pulled Chu Yixing into the teleportation vortex.

After Chu Yixing's figure disappeared, the previously still space slowly became active again, seemingly nurturing new monsters.

Chu Yixing's vision went dark then bright, and he arrived in a new environment. Chu Yixing looked around; before him was a vast and boundless void. In the void, stars flickered, and the power of laws was exceptionally active.

Beneath his feet was a magnificent stellar nebula composed of stardust and chaotic currents, slowly rotating. At the center of the nebula, a terrifying and contradictory aura of creation and destruction intertwined emanated.

Chu Yixing was enveloped in a transparent bubble, floating above the stellar nebula. Chu Yixing quickly activated the Sword Flight skill. After stepping onto the enlarged green lotus immortal sword, Chu Yixing's worried heart settled.

Entered Trial Tower twenty-ninth floor: Eye of the Stellar Nebula. Do you wish to begin the challenge? Yes / No

Chu Yixing chose yes, and the bubble enveloping him immediately burst and disappeared. Chu Yixing felt a wave of relief, glad he had activated Sword Flight beforehand.

In the void far from Chu Yixing, an unimaginably colossal beast revealed its form.

Its form resembled a whale, but on both sides of its body, it had a pair of enormous bony wings. The wings were covered with stellar patterns that occasionally shimmered.

Its skin was dotted with countless twinkling starlight, as if it wanted to merge with this starry universe.

It had only one giant single eye, which occupied most of its head. The pupil was like a rotating galaxy, containing light that seemed to devour everything.

Its gigantic mouth opened, vast enough to swallow small stars.
