As it descended deeper and deeper, the raging dao rhythm around that area became more and more powerful, but fortunately the enhancement was very low, so at least Ning Cheng could still block it.
There were several times when Ning Cheng wanted to stop descending and go back first, but he held back again. There was a saying that those who traveled a hundred miles would be halfway there, so perhaps if he took one more step forward, he would be at the end.
With such hesitation, the three of them had been walking for nearly thirty years.
Ning Cheng finally couldn’t hold back anymore and he decided to give up.
Beneath this Abyss of Eternal Hope, it was like a bottomless pit, no matter how deep one vanish down, there was no way to reach the bottom. As a Dao-attesting powerhouse, a few decades of life span was indeed nothing to him as it passed in between. Ning Cheng really had no way to endure this endless dive, and he decided to give up for the time being and wait until he had the chance to come back after crossing the third step.
“Daoist Ning, I feel that the riotous dao rhythm here seems to have decreased a little instead of continuously increasing.” Sensing that Ning Cheng’s speed had slowed down, Wang promptly voiced out his observation.
He was leading the way alone, and despite being protected by Ning Cheng’s domain, he could stretch out his divine sense to observe.
When Ning Cheng’s heart moved, it was true that the raging aura around him was slightly weaker. It was so imperceptibly weak that he just didn’t want to continue, so he didn’t care. And Wang had been in the Eternal Hope Abyss for I don’t know how many years, and was very sensitive to the berserker aura here.
Ning Cheng gave up his intention of retreating and even accelerated his speed downwards. Sure enough, the further down he went, the weaker the berserker aura became.
After another half year had passed, Ning Cheng’s divine sense suddenly touched a boundary barrier, what the hell was this?
Immediately afterwards, Ning Cheng was certain that this was really the end. What was strange to him was that this layer of boundary divider, if he felt it at all, was not there.
A few days later, Ning Cheng stopped, and when he reached this point, even though there was still a void ahead, Ning Cheng knew that it was just distorted space. To go any further would be tantamount to returning.
The place where he was should be considered the bottom of the Eternal Hope Abyss, unfortunately, after decades of rapid vanishment, there were no magic treasures down here. There was only a side of emptiness and a sometimes untouchable edge of the realm, which was indeed depressing.
“It looks like there are no magical treasures here.” As Ning Cheng spoke, his divine sense focused up, and when the vague boundary divider appeared in his divine sense, Ning Cheng raised his hand and grabbed it.
The boundary divider faintly moved without half loosening.
Sensing the void fluctuations, Chasing Ox said in surprise to the side, “Master, this interface is so tough ……”
Chasing Ox could not feel the void boundary domain and knew that with Ning Cheng’s grasp, even the strongest boundary domain would be torn apart. Now with Ning Cheng’s grab, it surprisingly only felt a slight fluctuation in the surrounding space, did this not mean that this side of the boundary domain was tough?
Wang’s divine sense could also not feel the boundary divider in front of it, and was equally clear about what Ning Cheng was doing. After listening to Chasing Ox’s words, he shook his head and said, “I’m afraid that this is not an interface, it is most likely a realm of extremely high rank. Unfortunately, my strength is too weak, I can’t feel it.”
Ning Cheng did not say anything as his divine sense once again went to touch the realm divider in front of him. The realm in front of him was still if anything, and Ning Cheng secretly sighed in his heart, this must be because his cultivation level was still too weak.
He was a Starry Sky Sea of Consciousness and his divine sense was so strong that I was afraid that even an ordinary Realm Maker would be far inferior. Since he could not perceive it, those ordinary Boundary Creation Realm powerhouses should not be able to perceive it either.
The good thing was that he could still sense the interface if anything.
“Alas, after decades of running, it turned out to be an empty one. Xiao Wang, there’s something wrong with your judgment. It’s fine to let me, an idle man, run for decades, my master has so many great things to do, only to be fooled by you.” Chasing Ox was saying sarcastic words on the side, and his address dropped straight away.
Wang did not know what snubbing meant, but thought it should not be a good word, and he also said with some irritation, “Fellow Daoist Chasing Ox, you should have just said you, the idle ox, instead of the idle man. As for there not being any treasures down here, where would I have known that before?”
When Chasing Ox saw that Wang was actually going to argue with it, its spirits were lifted, what it feared most was either someone arguing with it, or that there would be no one to argue with it.
“Xiao Wang, you are not saying that ……”
Unfortunately, Chasing Ox had only said a few words before Ning Cheng raised his hand to stop the conversation, “Don’t speak.”
When Chasing Ox heard his lord’s words, he hurriedly shrank his head and closed his mouth tightly, not daring to make a move.
Ning Cheng had indeed found the pattern, when his Xuanhuang Origin Breath was fused in his Divine Sense, he could touch the boundary divider in front of him. Once he merely used his divine sense to sweep the realm in front of him, he would simply not be able to see anything.
“This should not be an interface nor a realm, but a new kind of separating place ……” After a long time, Ning Cheng finally said in a deep voice.
“What kind of place is that?” Wang and Chasing Ox asked at the same time.
“If I’m not wrong, this should be the Face of the Universe.” Ning Cheng said in a deep voice.
“The Face of the Universe?” Chasing Bull was bewildered, it had no idea what the Face of the Universe was.
Hope immediately asked, “Daoist Lord Ning, are you saying that from here onwards, it is another side of the universe?”
He had experienced countless thousands of years under the Eternal Hope Abyss, not knowing how many memories of powerful people who had fallen, and naturally knew more about the Face of the Universe than Chasing Ox did.
“Xiao Wang, what is the other side of the universe?” Chasing Ox scratched his ears in anxiety.
Wang was in no mood to pay attention to Chasing Ox’s name calling and said in a gruff tone, “Rumour has it that our side of the universe was formed by the five elemental rules after the beginning of chaos. The other side of the universe, on the other hand, had two rules of light and darkness that coalesced and then derived from the rules of heaven and earth.”
Ning Cheng secretly nodded his head, Wang’s statement was similar to Kong Zai’s. However, since there were two universes, who knew if there would be a third party universe?
“Fellow Daoist Wang, can we go over there then?” Chasing Ox immediately changed its title again after knowing that Wang understood the two-sided universe. It was most eager to see all sorts of new and strange things, and as there was a new side of the universe here, how could it not want to go over and take a look?
Wang shook his head, “I’m afraid I can’t, I’ve heard that only those who are strong in the Creation Realm will have the chance to open the face of the universe. I’m afraid we’re not enough, as long as Daoist Ning crosses into the third step of the Realm of Creation, it’s also possible for him to enter.”
“Oh? How do I get in?” Ning Cheng asked suspiciously, he did want to go in and take a look, only that just now he had tried and knew that with his current ability, he was afraid that it would be difficult to open this Face of the Universe. Even if he was in the Realm of Creation, I was afraid that he would not be able to tear open this place.
As for the universe derived from the rules of the Darkness and Light attributes, Ning Cheng only knew about it, as for anything else, Ning Cheng was not at all sure.
Wang explained, “Daoist Daoist Ning possesses the Xuanhuang Pearl, and the Xuanhuang Pearl is not blocked by the cosmic interface divider. When the time comes, Daoist Monarch can enter the other side of the universe from this place just by using the Xuanhuang Pearl.”
“Then why can’t you do it now?” Ning Cheng asked again.
“Because although the Daoist Monarch is powerful, he is unable to shake the Face of the Universe. Even with the help of the Xuanhuang Pearl, one can only enter with the help of the Xuanhuang Pearl after shaking the Face of the Universe.”
Ning Cheng understood what Wang meant, this was telling him that now that he was slightly weaker, even if he grabbed at the Face of the Universe with all his might, he would only be able to slightly shake this Face of the Universe. When he crossed into the third step, his strength could shake this Face of the Universe, and even though he could not tear it apart, he would be able to cause the Face of the Universe to create fluctuations that were enough to affect the Xuanhuang Pearl.
After understanding this, Ning Cheng knew that he should be able to enter the other side of the universe right now. It was true that his strength today was unable to tear open this side of the face of the universe, but he could attack through the formation dao to achieve the effect that he had after he had witnessed the third step of the Dao, it would just take a longer time.
“I have a way to get in right now, hope you want to go in with me or leave?” Ning Cheng thought of his dark attribute rules, if he could go in a universe where the dark origin existed, he could definitely go further.
He now had some control over the darkness rules, but compared to the Darkness Dao Monarch, he was like a baby learning to walk. In the future, the Darkness Dao Monarch was also going to the Gate of Creation, and it would be a joke if he relied on the darkness rule divine ability he had learned from the Darkness Dao Monarch to deal with the Darkness Dao Monarch.
Without hesitation, Wang said, “I’m willing to go in, thanks to Daoist Monarch Ning for carrying it.”
Wang himself was a wisp of consciousness that had coalesced, to him, everything else was nothing, only the Great Dao was his ultimate goal. What’s more, he had to go in with it. If Ning Cheng went in, with his current strength, he would not be able to climb out of the Eternal Hope Abyss.
“Good, in that case, then we will start setting up the Boundary Breaking Formation.” Ning Cheng said at once.
Wang had been in the Eternal Hope Abyss for so many years, and since there were already all sorts of great formations underneath the Eternal Hope Abyss, Wang’s level of formation dao would naturally not be low, so it would be just right to help him out.
“Daoist Monarch is going to use the Boundary Breaking Formation to weaken the Face of the Universe and then go in with the help of the Xuanhuang Pearl?” Wang instantly understood Ning Cheng’s meaning.
“That’s right.” Ning Cheng did not hide it, he knew that Wang was definitely going to participate.
“I’m willing to contribute something, I’ve also accumulated a bunch of materials over the years, just in time to use them to set up the boundary breaking formation.” Wang hurriedly said.
He had obtained a lot of things over the years, and those that could be used for cultivation were all used up by him. The materials that could not be cultivated were all piled up in the middle of his world at this time.
After Wang agreed, Ning Cheng directly took out a pile of materials and began to refine the formation flags. It was nothing like an ordinary boundary-breaking formation. It was like refining a boundary-breaking talisman, which Ning Cheng could easily set up with his strength.
Breaking a boundary-breaking formation on the face of the universe was not that simple. Even with Ning Cheng’s formation strength, with the help of Wang, it had taken him seven or eight years to set it up before it was completed.
“Daoist Monarch Ning, what should I do next?” After seeing Ning Cheng’s means of setting up the Boundary Breaking Formation, Wang knew that even in terms of Formation Dao, he was far inferior to Ning Cheng.
Now that the Boundary Breaking Formation was complete, when the Boundary Breaking Formation was activated later, perhaps he would need a little help.
Ning Cheng grabbed a handful of formation flags and said to Wang and Chasing Ox, “You don’t need to do anything next, just enter the Xuanhuang Pearl, later I will activate the Boundary Breaking Formation and then we can directly enter the other side of the universe.”
