In the abandoned world.

After nearly a month, Chen Yiming had finally arrived at this special planet.

This was a huge planet. The sun could be completely devoured by it, but it did not burn brightly like the sun.

On the contrary, it looked a little desolate from afar. From the ground alone, one could tell that it was a living planet. On it were traces of mines and huge mountain ranges.

“We have to be careful from now on.”

!!

As soon as Gao Shuai finished speaking, the spaceship suddenly tilted. An unknown corpse happened to be blocking the way, and the spaceship automatically drew an arc to dodge it.

“There’s actually a spatial rift hidden inside the corpse. Is it a trap?”

Soon, when the spaceship passed by the corpse, Chen Yiming used the projection of his will to see the situation of the corpse clearly.

It was the corpse of a strange creature. Its bones were glowing like jade, and when its eyes met Chen Yiming’s, they seemed to have regained their light. It seemed to be trying to determine if it should make a move.

“The source mines have attracted many adventurers, not only from the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, but also from the other galaxies. Naturally, there will be people who are lying in ambush,”

Gao Shuai explained in a helpless tone.

There was already a lot of risk in the abandoned world, and there were also people who had set up traps in the surrounding space.

This was especially true for adventurers who came here for the first time after learning about its reputation. It was very easy for them to be tricked before they really entered the mines. It was clear that the essence energy in the source mines was not easy to obtain.

The traces of the mines also seemed to be filled with ill intentions.

Hearing this, Chen Yiming turned his gaze back to the traces of the mines. He thought to himself, “My Space Anchor talent has also increased by one level. Now, I have two space anchors that I can use freely.”

A diversion? Pretending to be weak?

Since the source mine was clearly at a fixed location, there were some fake mines that were deliberately used to trick others. They could be compared to the corpse trap that they just passed and they could unexpectedly cut off any path of retreat.

This was something to take into consideration. It would take a long time to dig out the source mines. Those that were easy to find would definitely have been dug up by others.

Next, the spaceship continued to approach the abandoned world.

Under Gao Shuai’s control, the spaceship made twists and turns to avoid the ambushes of the pursuing factions and carefully passed through the space between the asteroids from time to time.

These asteroids were of varying sizes. When they were far away, they looked like meteors. Compared to them, the planet’s size was huge.

Chen Yiming noticed that the surface of these asteroids was bare and dark. There were also traces of a large number of corpses, with a few huge corpses among them.

According to Gao Shuai, there were space teleportation portals hidden on some of the asteroids, but there was a high chance that they were no longer functional. In the past, there were factions from the galaxies that used the teleportation portals to enter and exit the abandoned world.

However, in the current era, the rise of the technological system made it safer to board a real spaceship and travel around using the star map.

In addition, the interior of the abandoned world was directly connected to the space-travel distortion, causing the space teleportation portals on the nearby asteroids to be easily disturbed. There might be accidents due to the coordinates being altered.

It was due to many reasons that the teleportation portals on these asteroids were gradually abandoned. Perhaps some of them were still functioning, but no one had used them for a long time.

…

Time quickly passed by.

The spaceship was heading towards an area on the abandoned world where nine mountains were linked together, forming an incomparably large canyon.

There were many abnormalities in many areas of the planet. There were people walking around in the space around it, and there were huge creatures soaring into the sky. Unknown objects were falling towards the spaceship from the sky.

Almost all the abnormal movements aimed straight at the spaceship Chen Yiming was in. It was the ambush set up by the factions that had been chasing after them earlier.

However, because this planet was too huge, the surrounding space could not be sealed off completely. Coupled with Gao Shuai’s special prophecy ability, they could easily avoid the attacks.

When the spaceship started to land, it was still in a restricted area. It was too late to stop them.

Gao Shuai had a serious expression on his face as he emphasized, “The place I chose for us to land on is in a forbidden death zone. Any living creature that stays here will use up a large amount of blood essence every second.”

“The reason for this is unknown. Rumor has it that it’s related to the bottomless pit at the bottom of the valley. Perhaps there’s another world connected to the space-travel distortion at the bottom.”

“We have to find a way out of this forbidden death zone as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will exhaust our life force and die inside.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he frowned.

Gao Shuai quickly continued, “If we are forced to separate because of factors out of our control, we should just try to leave the forbidden death zone first. After that, I naturally have a way to gather everyone one by one.”

These words were not only directed at Chen Yiming, but also at the old butler and the bull-headed men.

He seemed to have a premonition that something unexpected would happen, causing everyone to be forced to split up.

Hearing this, Chen Yiming sized Gao Shuai up.

He wanted to say in his heart, “You could find me before, but can you still find me now?”

Wasn’t he afraid that he would be killed by a single punch from him due to the backlash? He could even crush a weakling at the fusion realm with just his will projection.

Gao Shuai did not have the time to elaborate, and as he predicted, something unexpected happened.

The spaceship was suddenly attacked by the violent power of space. It was as if the hull did not have any ability to block the attack, and its interior was directly exposed to the space-travel distortion.

In an instant, everything around them began to disintegrate. The tables, chairs, screens, and so on in the cabin turned into fragments and quickly turned to dust.

Chen Yiming had already set the coordinates for the space anchor so that he could leave safely at any time. He took one last look at Gao Shuai, the old butler, and the bull-headed men who each took out a talisman.

“Brother, the instant teleportation talisman is a consumable, and there’s no way to replenish it in the abandoned world, so I didn’t prepare any for you. After all, you’re the strongest here, so it shouldn’t be a problem for you to escape safely.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the cabin, except Chen Yiming, turned into a white stream of light and disappeared.

“…”

Chen Yiming’s reaction speed was much faster. When Gao Shuai and the others used the instant teleportation talisman to escape, he also instantly appeared at the coordinates set by the space anchor.

The range of his super perception brought about by his Level-4 Spatial Anchor talent allowed him to easily target a spot on the ground of the abandoned world. He chose to go straight for it, and his figure appeared under a cracked ancient tree.

In the next moment,

“Boom!”

The spaceship, which had the ability to jump through space and was of unknown value, was destroyed just like that in the sky above the forbidden death zone.

It was unknown how the violent power of space had suddenly appeared. It was very sudden and unexpected. For the time being, they did not know if it was a trap or if they were just unlucky.

…

“It seems that from one of the nine mountains, an unknown existence attacked the spaceship.”

Chen Yiming stepped on the dry soil and confirmed that the ancient tree beside him had been dead for a long time. Only then did he have time to investigate the reason for the attack.

The fresh air blew over, bringing with it the smell of soil and the fragrance of flowers.

He had returned to the natural environment from the silent and dark space, the environment was immediately filled with life. The cells in his body seemed to have become more active.

This forbidden death zone was not as empty as expected. Instead, it was a beautiful place with rolling mountains and all kinds of strange flowers and plants.

He had never seen these plant creatures that could balance the consumption and recovery of blood essence and survive normally in such a special environment.

“The pressure between heaven and earth is very strong. It’s probably a pressure that is 1,000 times more than normal. The range of spiritual detection, speed, and so on are all suppressed.”

In an unfamiliar world, it was not suitable for him to investigate the situation on the nine mountains too closely. Soon, Chen Yiming started to experience the environment on the abandoned world.

The environment of such a huge planet was definitely extremely harsh. For example, if ordinary people from the blue planet came here, their bodies would not be able to withstand it and would directly be destroyed.

It could be said that every blade of grass and tree here was at the level of a supreme object on the blue planet.

Even the range of his super perception was greatly reduced because the range of his basic spiritual detection was suppressed. The distance of one space-jump here was far inferior to that in outer space.

“Should I look for Gao Shuai and move together, or should I act alone?”

Chen Yiming hesitated as he sensed the depletion and recovery of his blood essence power.

Gao Shuai only knew that he had a powerful physique and that he had faked his death to launch a sneak attack on the Little Roc King on the Flying Cloud Planet. He had not revealed much information about his physique.

Little did he know that the speed at which his blood essence was being consumed was actually far slower than his recovery. It was not much different from normal situations for him.

“If I work with Gao Shuai, we have to split the profits 50-50. In a situation where the entire world is our enemy, I seem to be at a disadvantage.”

Chen Yiming’s spatial ability ensured his speed, but his spatial ability could only be used on himself. He couldn’t teleport with Gao Shuai and the others.

Due to the strong rejection, the inner world could not hold other living creatures, unless they entered the space in the ring like the female spirit and the treasure tree.

The ring in his hand was extremely mysterious. Under normal circumstances, it should not have been able to teleport with him, but in reality, there was no problem at all, and there was no need to take it into his inner world.

“There are many variables on the abandoned world, and a large number of mines are hiding an unknown number of source mines. Perhaps I can consider exploring first before looking for Gao Shuai to discuss this further.”

After some thought, he decided to use his spatial ability to try to make his move first. After all, it was impossible for all the large factions in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy to be chasing after him, right?

Moreover, Gao Shuai had said that while the abandoned world was located in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, but in reality, there were a large number of factions from the surrounding galaxies that were after the source mines.

The factions in this galaxy were wary of him. He could consider the mines constructed by the other galaxies instead. If he just cultivated diligently in order to get stronger, how long would it take?

Soon, Chen Yiming’s eyes lit up. He released his spiritual power and prepared to find a suitable escape plan.

As the spiritual figure also reached the star condensation realm, his spiritual level and physical level returned to the same level.

Even with the powerful pressure between heaven and earth, the range he could cover was still very large. It was easy to cover hundreds of kilometers. If it was anyone else at the same level, they would definitely be restricted more severely than him.

Of course, he was still relatively cautious. His spiritual power did not cover the area from all angles. Instead, he gathered it into a straight line that carefully avoided the nine mountains.

“In the north, about 100 kilometers away, there are obvious energy fluctuations. It seems like a battle has broken out.”

He could not see the scene clearly from here, but it did not matter if he could just go over to observe it.

In the next moment, Chen Yiming appeared behind a short slope with the help of the space anchor. There were some strange flowers and plants growing on the short slope, which blocked his path.

There was a group of young men and women, a total of more than 10 people. The pouches at their waists were bulging, and they did not look flustered at all. They were fighting and retreating in an orderly manner.

Behind these people, a middle-aged man was in pursuit, but his expression did not look too good.

Every time the middle-aged man made a move, the materialized golden palm energy was not wasted at all. It accurately hit one of his opponents. This was something he had no choice but to do in the forbidden death zone. Every move he made had to minimize his consumption of energy.

However, the dozen or so people on the other side were actually fighting across realms with ease with their combined attacks.

The reason was that the suppression between the heavens and the earth was too serious. Unknowingly, the difference between the two realms had decreased, causing the combined attack technique to become stronger with their advantage in numbers.

“A middle-aged man at the fusion realm and more than 10 young men and women at the inscription realm.”

Chen Yiming took a look and determined their cultivation level from the strength of their auras.

The group of men and women in front of him clearly came from the same faction. Their movements were very coordinated, as if they had a telepathic connection. It was clear how well they worked together.

Their combined attack technique was not something complex. They just used the principle of mutually reinforcing each other’s attacks to form a cycle that repeatedly unleashed unexpected power at critical moments.

The fire sword, ice saber, and wind arrow they used were all formed by the power of nature, but their combination was perfect, causing the middle-aged enemy to suffer repeated defeats.

Such a battle of attrition was quite torturous. The reason why the forbidden death zone was a restricted area was naturally because the danger was far greater than just the effect of the environment.

The distance and range of pursuit were too large. He might even lose his life. At this time, he had to weigh the risk and the benefits.

“Should I help one side defeat the other, or should I sit back and wait for them to decide a victor before following the victor out of the forbidden death zone?”

Chen Yiming narrowed his eyes and considered whether to reveal himself.

On second thought, he was not a saint, nor was he a righteous person who was willing to help others. The identity as a member of the Peacekeeping Alliance was just used to trick others.

His true goal in coming to the abandoned world was to occupy the source mines so that the system could absorb the essence energy inside and make him strong enough to directly establish himself in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy.

This way, it would be disadvantageous to him if he appeared now. He might be able to obtain more valuable information by secretly observing the situation in the forbidden death zone.

Chen Yiming also didn’t use his spiritual power to investigate the nine mountains any further. His intuition told him not to do that.
