243: Void Walking

After careful discussion, Ye Kong and Wang Jian reached an agreement: Wang Jian would return to the Dragon Country's capital first, and in the name of General Who Suppresses Rebellion Ye Kong, he would raise a team to be trained by Shao Jue, the Dragon Country's military commander.

Once Ye Kong returned to the capital, the command of the troops would be handed over to Ye Kong.

For now, Ye Kong would be stationed in Wuji City, awaiting the Emperor's decree.

After all, the Zhenwei Camp and Xiandeng Camp were both imperial capital armies, and returning to the capital now required an explanation to the Emperor... A few days later, the news of the Rebellion Suppression Army's return spread throughout the entire Human Race.

The news people received was: Ye Kong led the Rebellion Suppression Army to reclaim the eight hundred li territory outside Wuji City that had been occupied by the Alien Race.

As for the news of the Alien God being slain, it was completely sealed off and kept secret.

But even with just the recovery of lost territory, the Human Race was exceptionally excited and talked about it with great relish.

Now, Ye Kong had completely absorbed the Void God's divine personality; the Void God's divine personality had already turned into a stone, completely useless.

After Ye Kong fully absorbed the Void God's divine personality, he could feel a special power within his body.

This should be the Law power that originally belonged to the Void God.

Now that he had claimed it for himself, he still needed to convert it into his own energy.

Therefore, Ye Kong decided to find a hidden spot outside Wuji City to try it out.

Ye Kong found Xue Ruyu and told her about this; Xue Ruyu reminded him to be careful but did not stop him.

Flying five hundred li outside Wuji City, this place should have been frequented by the Alien Race, but now it was deserted, with only some Yao Beasts walking in the mountains and forests.

Ye Kong landed and began to sense the Godly Laws within his body.

A Void power emanated from Ye Kong's body.

Void Law!

In a trance, Ye Kong seemed to see the vast and boundless Universe, and his entire being became empty, as if his body had dissipated in the world, and his Soul had already drifted into the Universe.

This was a very strange feeling; when Ye Kong opened his eyes, a Void Gate had already appeared before him.

Long-distance Void travel requires the power of coordinates, while short-distance travel relies entirely on feeling.

If one could repeatedly use the Void Gate at close range to travel through the Void, it would achieve an effect similar to spatial jumping, greatly enhancing combat power.

However, for many Gods, they forcibly tear open the Void, and entering and exiting the Void takes time, so they generally do not open Void Gates at close range; they are all used for long-distance teleportation.

But the Void God's Void Law was not like that; by utilizing the Void God's Godly Laws, one could quickly traverse the Void, and even with just a snap of the fingers, a complete Void Gate large enough to pass through could be opened.

Afterward, one could open an exit at another location with the same speed and easily step out.

This was Void Walking!

This greatly enhanced combat!

For Ye Kong, who had no good defensive means, this was an absolute divine skill to help him evade enemy attacks, counterattack, and pursue.

Ye Kong did not hesitate; he immediately got up and walked into this Void Gate, preparing to experience the feeling of crossing the Void.

—Upon entering, it was as if he had truly entered the Universe; before him was a giant black hole, corresponding to the exit to the real world.

This black hole would always follow Ye Kong; Ye Kong could avoid touching it, go to his desired location, and then open the black hole exit.

Simply put, the Void was a large map, allowing for quick and direct selection of a location and then teleporting out.

Ye Kong reached out his hand, preparing to try opening a door in place first.

It is worth mentioning that the Void God's Law allowed him to stay in the Void for a long time, but it consumed True Qi.

Other Gods could not stay in the Void for long, otherwise they would get lost.

Ye Kong reached out his hand into the black hole, and the black hole slowly opened, revealing white light, and then reality appeared.

Two or three meters from Ye Kong's original position, the Void Gate opened again, and Ye Kong stepped out with one foot, landing on solid ground.

Ye Kong had an indescribable feeling; in the Void, Ye Kong always felt like he was floating in the Universe, and indeed, stepping on solid ground gave him a greater sense of security.

In any case, it was finally successful.

Next, he would try a little further.

Ye Kong still couldn't open a door with a snap of his fingers, so he could only sit cross-legged and meditate again, and then the Void Law appeared around him.

The Void Gate opened again before Ye Kong.

Very good.

Ye Kong did not hesitate and stepped directly inside.

The situation inside was the same as before: the vast and boundless Universe, his entire being became empty, as if his body had dissipated in the world, and his Soul had already drifted into the Universe.

Ye Kong tried to walk a little further, and then walked out about ten meters away from his original spot.

Another success, Ye Kong was extremely excited.

He had long felt that the Gods' Cultivation Technique for crossing the Void and teleporting was simply too useful; now that he could also master this method of opening the Void, it was truly wonderful.

Afterward, Ye Kong used it repeatedly more than a dozen times; the last time, Ye Kong directly opened the door in front of Wuji City's city gate.

When Ye Kong walked out of the Void Gate, he saw soldiers standing ready.

They thought some Alien God had come through the Void Gate.

Having mastered Void Walking, Ye Kong was exceptionally excited; if he could set a coordinate in the Ye family's Secret Realm, he could visit Ye Liting at any time.

However, would the Ye family allow it?

Probably not... Thinking of Ye Liting, who was still sleeping in the Secret Realm, Ye Kong couldn't help but feel a little lonely.

Walking on the streets of Wuji City, he was occasionally recognized by the common people, who greeted Ye Kong very enthusiastically, and Ye Kong responded with a smile.

Soon, a soldier chased after him.

"General Ye!"

Ye Kong looked; it was a soldier from the Zhenwei Camp, and he immediately asked, "What does General Wen Gan need?"

After saluting, the soldier approached Ye Kong and whispered, "General Ye, the Emperor's decree has arrived; Deputy Commander Wen Gan requests General Ye to come to the military camp for discussion."

Upon hearing this, Ye Kong's expression became solemn.

"Alright, I will return to the military camp immediately."

...Back in the central tent of the camp, Xue Ruyu, Wen Gan, Liu Che, and higher-ranking military officers were already waiting in the tent.

After Ye Kong entered, everyone saluted Ye Kong together.

"General Ye."

Ye Kong took a deep breath and sat down in the main seat.

He quickly noticed Liu Che standing to the side, still wrapped in bandages; he quickly stood up again and walked over.

"General Liu? How is your injury recovering?"

Liu Che bowed deeply to Ye Kong and said, "Thank you, General Ye, for saving me; my injuries are no longer serious, and I feel my Physique has actually improved to Heaven-Grade; General's skill is simply divine!"

Ye Kong saw that Liu Che was no longer seriously injured and nodded.

"It's good that you're alright."

Wen Gan stepped forward at this moment and handed the Emperor's decree to Ye Kong.

Ye Kong returned to the main seat, opened the decree, and examined it.

"A letter to General Who Suppresses Rebellion Ye Kong, I do not have long to live..." Ye Kong was immediately greatly alarmed!
