"This world's time and space are both broken and incomplete!"
Ye Yunfei suddenly said with astonishment.
He saw huge fissures appearing in the space ahead, like black spiderwebs crawling across this bewildering, chaotic expanse. In some places, the space was split by the cracks into dozens of separate, disconnected fragments. Within this chaotic space, the flow of time and structure of space in many areas were utterly disordered. Not only was the space shattered into pieces in numerous locations, but time was also chaotic—some positions had frozen, unchanging time, some places had noticeably faster timeflow, and in some regions, time even flowed backwards.
The confusion of space and time made this world appear bizarre and phantasmagorical, exceedingly strange, to the point where one couldn't even find the correct direction.
After a short while, the Giant Clan's spacecraft began to slow down more and more. At times, it even felt like they were flying forward, but they were actually moving backwards!
"Young Master Ye, it's truly difficult to discern the correct direction in this world," the Juren Zu Zhang said with a wry smile.
Although he had the Demon God Map at hand for constant reference, the Giant Clan Chief still found it hard to identify the right path. It wasn't just him; the other creatures in the distance faced the same difficulty. Some weaker beings were trapped in chaotic spatial zones, circling around inside, shouting and roaring in anxiety but utterly unable to find the correct forward direction.
Ye Yunfei noticed that only those at the Earth Immortal Realm and above had the ability to quickly ascertain the accurate direction, leading the forces under their command as they charged toward the entrances of the Small Worlds in the distance.
He saw the Reincarnation Palace's ship, with astonishing speed, instantly rush into a distant Small World. The chaotic time and space of this chaotic expanse seemed to pose no hindrance whatsoever to that ship!
Besides the Reincarnation Palace's ship, the vessels of several other major forces also completely ignored the chaotic time and space here, rolling forward unimpeded.
"Let me do it."
Just as the Juren Zu Zhang was struggling to determine their bearing, Hun Lao suddenly appeared beside Ye Yunfei. The Giant Clan Chief and the five elders were startled to see a large tree suddenly appear next to Ye Yunfei, as this was their first time meeting Hun Lao.
"Chief, give the Demon God Map to Hun Lao. Let him control the ship," Ye Yunfei said.
"Of course," the Juren Zu Zhang replied, placing absolute trust in Ye Yunfei.
He immediately handed the Demon God Map to Hun Lao and relinquished control of the spacecraft to him.
"Although this spacetime is utterly chaotic, it's nothing to me. The Chaos World Tree Clan was born in the Chaotic Void; an environment like this can only be considered average," Hun Lao said with a smile to Ye Yunfei after studying the map briefly to orient himself.
Then, under Hun Lao's control, the spacecraft sped forward.
"Young Master Ye, why do I feel like our ship has been circling all this time?" a Giant Clan elder couldn't help but ask Ye Yunfei after a moment.
"Don't worry, just trust Hun Lao. His attainments in spatial manipulation far surpass my own," Ye Yunfei said with a smile.
Upon hearing this from Ye Yunfei, the Juren Zu Zhang and the five elders fell silent. Even Ye Yunfei admitted he was not as skilled; they were even further behind.
No one knew how much time had passed.
"We've arrived. The Small World ahead is where the Great Strength Demon God's treasure lies," Hun Lao suddenly announced as the ship came to a halt.
Upon hearing Hun Lao's words, Ye Yunfei, the Juren Zu Zhang, and the five elders all perked up their spirits. Sure enough, there was the entrance to a Small World ahead!
"This is indeed the place!" the Juren Zu Zhang leaned forward, verified it against the Demon God Map, and exclaimed excitedly.
Suddenly, a loud voice boomed from behind:
"Everyone, pay attention! We should reach our destination soon! The Small World ahead might very well be the Great Strength Demon God's! This time, we must obtain the Great Strength Demon God's treasure!"
"So, apart from us, others also know about the Great Strength Demon God's treasure and have already tracked it down!" Ye Yunfei frowned slightly upon hearing this.
"It's the Barbarian God Sect! The same Barbarian God Sect that rammed our ship outside!" Hun Lao, with his astonishing spatial perception, immediately sensed a ship approaching from the chaotic spacetime behind—it was indeed the Barbarian God Sect's vessel.
"The Barbarian God Sect! I never thought they'd also come seeking the Great Strength Demon God's treasure. Could it be that this force also cultivates physical body strength?" Ye Yunfei murmured to himself.
"Hun Lao, increase speed! Try to find the Great Strength Demon God's treasure before they do. We don't know the Barbarian God Sect's true strength. If we really end up fighting them, I'm not sure I can handle them," Ye Yunfei said.
Ye Yunfei understood that with his current strength, he feared no expert at the Heavenly Emperor level. But if they encountered Earth Immortal Realm experts, that would be a different story. This Barbarian God Sect hailed from the Prime World; it was possible they possessed Earth Immortal Realm power. Moreover, for creatures cultivating the physical body, their true combat power was hard to gauge outside of actual battle.
"Understood," Hun Lao nodded.
Rumble...
Under Hun Lao's urging, the spacecraft suddenly accelerated forward. Within a few breaths, it plunged directly into the Small World ahead.
"Not good! It seems a ship has rushed in ahead of us! Quick, speed up! We absolutely cannot let others get ahead!" came a voice from a ship rolling in behind.
Then, this Barbarian God Sect ship also surged into the Small World.
By this time, Hun Lao had already guided their ship into a strange, primordial-feeling world.
Rumble...
A terrifying power swept over them like an overwhelming tide. It was as if an invisible giant hammer struck the ship heavily, instantly smashing it down to the ground, creating a deep crater in the earth.
"What kind of power is this?"
Ye Yunfei, the Juren Zu Zhang, and the five elders stepped out of the ship, feeling a dreadful energy surging through heaven and earth, pressing down on them like a tremendous weight.
"Young Master Ye, this is the legendary gravity! This Small World is filled with fearsome gravity energy!" the Juren Zu Zhang suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"In this Small World, spiritual energy seems unusable. Moreover, even physical body power faces immense suppressive force. Ye Yunfei, try to see if you can fly," Hun Lao said.
Ye Yunfei immediately exerted his body and tried to call upon his spiritual energy, wanting to take to the air.
Rumble...
Immense gravity energy poured down from above, wildly suppressing him. Moreover, Ye Yunfei realized that the spiritual energy within his body truly could not be used!
