410: Chance, Soul Search

[Thanks to your experience from last time, you now know the approximate time of Mo Liang's arrival, so you only need to leave before this time arrives.]

[As time passed bit by bit, the Heavenly Slaves soon arrived here.]

[You observed for a moment and discovered that these Heavenly Slaves were not the same as the ones you saw last time.]

[Although they were all responsible for the same task, it was clear that they did not belong to the same squad.]

["Damn it, how could such a large space rift suddenly appear here?!"]

["There is an 18th Realm Cultivator there; could he be the one who did it?"]

["How is that possible? With his strength, even if he bombarded this place for a million years, it would be impossible to release Chaos Qi."]

["Quickly notify Lord Envoy and Lord Mo Yin."]

["..."]

["Mo Yin?"]

["Could it be that there are many other Cultivators of the same level as Mo Liang?"]

[A trace of surprise flashed in your eyes.]

[Because this was certainly not good news for you.]

[After thinking for a moment, to prevent Mo Yin from arriving too quickly, you left the place ahead of time.]

[You arrived at a new domain.]

[This place was neither far nor close to the previous Long Domain.]

[You estimated that if Mo Yin failed to seal the rift, you would be able to sense Chaos Qi within a few years.]

[You began to wait quietly here.]

[Several years later.]

[You successfully caught sight of a wisp of Chaos Qi from afar.]

[This filled you with great joy, and you immediately rushed in its direction.]

[Your Divine Sense was blocked, and you could not investigate anything in the surroundings.]

[But you were not panicked in the slightest; instead, you became increasingly delighted.]

[Because the Chaos Qi was too strong; it could completely block everything.]

[Following this logic, it might very well help you block the Guiding Divine Light as well!]

[When the Guiding Divine Light appears next time, you can completely escape into it.]

[And as long as you avoid the Guiding Divine Light once, you can survive for another five hundred thousand years to discover more things.]

[Just like that, in the following time, you stayed around the Chaos Qi, ready to escape into it at any moment.]

[But who would have thought.]

[Before the Guiding Divine Light even appeared, several Heavenly Slaves appeared by your side.]

["What are you doing here?!"]

[Listening to the words coming into your ears, you were not panicked at all, because you knew that these Heavenly Slaves were completely different from those in the mysterious world.]

[And what they were responsible for was only observing the wall at the end of the world, not capturing 18th Realm Cultivators like you.]

["Oh? Fellow Daoist, I am just observing these gases."]

["The energy contained within them is extremely vast, but for some reason, it causes great harm to Cultivators."]

["Hmm, your discernment is not bad."]

["Relax your Divine Soul, I shall bestow an Opportunity upon you!"]

[Hearing this, you immediately felt that something was wrong and activated Celestial Travel to move far away from this place.]

[You used Celestial Travel to shuttle through the Universe repeatedly, only stopping after you were very far away from the Chaos Qi.]

["Strange..."]

["What exactly do those Heavenly Slaves want to do?"]

[A trace of doubt flashed in your eyes.]

[In that instant just now, it wasn't that you hadn't thought about performing a Soul Search on those Heavenly Slaves.]

[But after hesitating for a moment, you ultimately dismissed this thought.]

[There was no other reason.]

[The death of a Heavenly Slave would attract their direct superior.]

[And you currently no longer have the chance for Rebirth and Return of Life.]

[If you were to perform a Soul Search on them, you would be instantly killed by their superior, thereby ending the simulation.]

[Although the end of one simulation is not a big deal.]

[But the consumption for each simulation is becoming increasingly large, and with the resources in the Universe, it is not certain if you can sustain many more simulations.]

[Therefore, every simulation is particularly important to you now; you must seize every Opportunity to obtain more information.]

[Obviously, while the memory of a Heavenly Slave is important, it is not important enough for you to sacrifice your own life.]

[You began to lie dormant quietly, waiting for other changes in the Chaos Qi.]

[One hundred years later.]

[The Heavenly Slaves still had not expelled the Chaos Qi, and at this time, some Chaos Qi had appeared at your location.]

[And it was at this moment that you received a hint from the netherworld.]

[That was... Year Wheel Gift!]

[This is a talent you had long forgotten; because your strength is too great, there is nothing left in this world that can become your Opportunity.]

[And this reminder was the first one in hundreds of thousands of years!]

[This immediately made your heart tighten.]

[You began to search forward.]

[However, what you did not expect was that the reminder from the Year Wheel Gift was within the Chaos Qi.]

[And because the shielding effect of the Chaos Qi is simply too strong, the moment you stepped in here, even the reminder from the Year Wheel Gift began to become blurred.]

[Although it did not disappear completely, if you only rely on this vague perception to search for the Opportunity, it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.]

[But you had no other choice at this time.]

[You could only rely on this extremely vague perception to search within the Chaos Qi.]

[Suddenly, you bumped into an object.]

[Although your Divine Sense could not perceive the other party, you could make contact with it through your limbs.]

[You groped around it.]

[You discovered that it seemed to be... a person?]

[And still alive?]

[This made you feel not alarmed, but rather happy.]

[Because ordinary Cultivators simply cannot resist the Chaos Qi; apart from you, I am afraid only those Heavenly Slaves could enter here.]

[And performing a Soul Search on them within this Chaos Qi, I am afraid even their direct superior would not be able to detect your existence.]

[Thinking of this, you immediately took action.]

[You crushed the other party's skull with one hand and instantly refined all of their Divine Soul!]

[In an instant, a large amount of memory flooded into your mind.]

[A trace of realization flashed in your eyes.]

[It was not much different from your previous guess; these Heavenly Slaves were beings born for the purpose of maintaining the wall at the end of the Universe.]

[They refer to the wall at the end of the Universe as the Universe Barrier.]

[The space within the Universe Barrier is the Inner Universe, and the space outside the Universe Barrier is the Outer Universe.]

[However, since they are only the lowest-level beings, they do not understand the specific information about the Outer Universe.]

[All they know is the Chaos Qi.]

[This is an extremely special existence; it can cover everything and block any perception.]
