"This space environment is somewhat similar to the Dark Realm.
But it seems even stranger than the Dark Realm!"
Yan Xiaoquan spoke up.
"The environment of the Dark Realm?"
Hearing the words 'Dark Realm', Ye Yunfei immediately thought of Lü Dandan. That was because, when Lü Dandan had undergone her transformation before, the Holy Son of the Flying Corpse Monkey clan had once told Ye Yunfei that after Lü Dandan became the Dark Queen, she had most likely gone to the Dark Realm.
"Yes, legend says the Dark Realm has this kind of environment of total darkness where no light can penetrate.
But within the Dark Realm, a being's Soul Force Energy can be perceived normally. Here in this dark region before us, it seems my Soul Power cannot penetrate."
Yan Xiaoquan frowned.
"However, if we want to reach that ancient battlefield, we have no choice but to pass through this dark region.
Let's go."
Yan Xiaoquan said.
With that, the five of them walked toward the dark region ahead.
A moment later, the five entered the dark region.
Ye Yunfei released his Soul Force Energy, extending it to perceive their surroundings.
"With my Soul Force Energy, I can only perceive a radius of about eight hundred meters around me at most!"
Ye Yunfei was somewhat surprised.
"I can only sense a range of one hundred meters!"
Wu Wang exclaimed in shock.
"Same for me! Anything beyond a hundred meters, I cannot perceive!
In this area, I feel like I've become blind!"
Zhou Ye also exclaimed.
"Everyone be careful. Within this dark region exists a strange law that restricts our Soul Force Energy.
It's likely there are hidden dangers within this dark region."
Yan Xiaoquan spoke up.
"Let's try Mental Force energy!"
After trying Soul Power perception, Ye Yunfei employed his Mental Force energy, projecting it to perceive the surroundings.
"My Mental Force can perceive a range here that reaches at least seven or eight thousand meters!"
Ye Yunfei felt a pleasant surprise.
Although his Mental Force energy was still obstructed in this dark region, the hindrance was much less compared to Soul Force Energy!
"Let me take the lead!"
Ye Yunfei said.
"Fine, you lead the way."
Yan Xiaoquan agreed.
She knew that among this group, Ye Yunfei possessed the strongest combat power.
Ye Yunfei projected his Mental Force, covering an area of seven or eight thousand meters ahead as he strode forward. At the same time, he locked onto Yan Xiaoquan's aura to prevent anyone from getting separated.
The five of them gradually penetrated deeper into this dark region, finally experiencing what true, utter darkness meant.
The surroundings were all-encompassing, desolate, stifling, eternal darkness, seemingly offering no hope of any glimmer of light.
This degree of darkness made even breathing feel slightly difficult.
"This environment is too oppressive, too boring, too stifling."
Wu Wang said.
"Yes, it's so boring that I feel kind of sleepy. Like I could sleep right through it."
Zhou Ye nodded in agreement.
"I also feel drowsy. Like I want to sleep."
Wu Tianyu's voice also chimed in.
"Stop talking nonsense! We're on a mission. All of you, perk up!"
Yan Xiaoquan said irritably.
"Something is off. They are Mystic Immortals, how could they possibly feel sleepy?
With their level of power, they shouldn't feel sleepy even if they went without sleep for years!"
Hun Lao suddenly began speaking.
"Master, there's a strange law permeating our surroundings, affecting us."
At that moment, Hu Miao also spoke.
"What kind of law?"
Ye Yunfei also began to feel that the space around them was not quite right. There was indeed a bizarre aura permeating the air.
"This law resembles the laws of Illusion Dao somewhat. That's why I can perceive its existence so clearly.
But it probably isn't the Illusion Dao. It's a type of law similar to the Illusion Dao.
This law induces drowsiness."
Hu Miao said.
"A law similar to Illusion Dao?"
Ye Yunfei was surprised upon hearing Hu Miao's words.
Immediately, Ye Yunfei utilized his Mental Force energy to conduct a detailed perception of the surrounding space.
Soon, Ye Yunfei discovered the law Hu Miao spoke of.
Ye Yunfei's Mental Force energy seemed to perceive that strange law, and he was secretly amazed.
"So sleepy!
I really want to sleep."
Zhou Ye yawned as he spoke.
"I'm also so sleepy.
Could it be because we've been too busy lately, making me physically and mentally exhausted?"
Wu Wang also yawned.
Wu Tianyu didn't speak, but he kept yawning repeatedly.
"This law is a bit terrifying."
Ye Yunfei clearly perceived that the bizarre law was invading the bodies of Wu Wang, Zhou Ye, and Wu Tianyu, continuously drilling into their Soul Seas.
Though Yan Xiaoquan wasn't speaking, she was also obviously drowsy, appearing rather fatigued.
"Forget it, I'll sleep first."
Zhou Ye suddenly stopped walking and spoke with a dazed tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, he actually fell asleep.
He even began snoring!
"I'll also sleep."
Wu Wang said.
After speaking, Wu Wang also stood motionless and fell asleep.
"How can you all just fall asleep like this?
Fine, I'm very sleepy too."
Without another word, Wu Tianyu's voice clearly became dazed as well.
"What are you three doing?!"
Seeing this scene, Yan Xiaoquan couldn't help but be greatly alarmed. She realized something was wrong.
However, her own consciousness was also becoming fuzzy. She couldn't figure out what was happening.
At this moment, she also felt noticeably drowsy, only finding her eyelids heavy, forcing herself to hold on.
Only Ye Yunfei among the five remained conscious.
"Master, this law is incredibly powerful. It can actually affect Mystic Immortals!"
Hu Miao said in surprise.
"Careful, something seems to be coming this way!"
At that very moment, Hun Lao suddenly spoke.
Ye Yunfei's heart stirred, and then his Mental Force energy perceived that a mass of dark shadow was slowly approaching from afar.
This mass of shadow seemed to have no physical form. It looked like an illusory dark shadow, constantly twisting, its shape not fixed.
"This seems to be living being."
Using his Mental Force energy to lock onto that mass of shadow, Ye Yunfei secretly perceived it.
"Oh?
This human boy seems not to be asleep yet."
At that moment, the mass of shadow suddenly seemed to notice Ye Yunfei. It stopped moving, vigilantly perceiving Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei immediately sensed that the strange law from before was rapidly intensifying, pouring into his Soul Sea.
"It seems this creature is using some secret art, trying to make me fall asleep too.
Perhaps I'll pretend to sleep first, lure it closer, and see what it intends to do."
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment, then transmitted a message to Hun Lao.
"That's a bit dangerous. Because you have no idea what the actual combat strength of this creature is. What if it's an extremely formidable existence? Letting it get closer would be courting trouble."
Hun Lao cautioned.
"There is some risk.
But this is its territory. If we truly encounter a powerful opponent, trying to escape now would likely be difficult. It's not certain we could escape."
Ye Yunfei frowned.
Within this dark region, even using Mental Force energy, Ye Yunfei could perceive a distance of only seven or eight thousand meters at most. Escaping in such an environment would be highly challenging.
