Chapter 861 - No Way Back
Chapter 861 No Way Back
Qin Haodong jumped into the space loophole and immediately protected his body with the Green-Wood Genuine Qi.
But there were countless strong or weak undercurrents in the space loophole. Qin Haodong could easily resist those weaker airflows, but the powerful space undercurrent instantly broke through his Genuine Qi and he felt some pain.
Fortunately, he had a strong defense. Although the pain was sharp, it didn’t cause much harm.
The space loophole was not so deep. Just a few seconds later, he felt the surging undercurrents around him disappearing as he reached another space.
But Qin Haodong didn’t know what kind of unknown danger there would be in this space. After passing through the loophole, he immediately became nervous and brought out the Xuan Yuan Sword to protect himself.
But then he found that there were no Alien Demons here and all he heard was the sound of the wind whistling through the mountain.
He calmed down and began to look around. He was on a high mountain, surrounded by towering hills and dense forests.
“Wow! The Spiritual Qi is so rich here!”
In an instant, he felt that this place was different from earth. The Spiritual Qi here was thousands of times richer than the earth’s.
As a practitioner, he felt that even his Nascent Soul was cheering. He could take in a large amount of Spiritual Qi to nourish his Nascent Soul.
“Wow! This is really a good place!”
Qin Haodong realized that the Spiritual Qi here was even as rich as that in the Cultivation World. He could reach the Tribulation Realm and gather the courage to face the Heaven Thunder once again after practicing here for hundreds of years.
After making sure that there were no hidden dangers, he stepped on his flying sword and checked this new world again.
At the late stage of the Apotheosis Realm, he could fly at an extremely high speed. He flew to a distance of a hundred miles in an instant.
What a beautiful place!
Qin Haodong was fascinated by this place. The mountains and rivers were beautiful, and the Spiritual Qi was so rich that he almost went crazy. This was simply a fairyland for him, which was completely different from what Princess Garo had told him.
But soon, he realized that this was a fairyland for the human race, but it might be hell for the Alien Demons who depended on the Devil Qi.
No wonder the Alien Demons could not absorb the devil energy from the loophole all these years. It turned out this space had been completely filled with Spiritual Qi, and there was no trace of devil energy at all.
Could it be that the Alien Demons were wiped out because of the Spiritual Qi?
The Alien Demon Emperor had worked so hard for thousands of years but got nothing. There were no Alien Demons here in this space, that was why the army had not come to the earth.
But why did such a big change happen here? Qin Haodong quickly searched around and tried to find the answer.
About three or four hours later, he returned to the space loophole. He had checked almost all the surroundings. There were Alien Demons here, but to his surprise, he saw several human villages.
Most of the villagers here were ordinary people while some of them were practitioners. But they were at a rather low level and the most powerful one was at the Nascent Soul Realm.
Generally speaking, this place was no different from the Cultivation World. If he had not passed through the passage to the Alien Demon World, he would have thought that he had returned to the Cultivation World.
What he had to do now was to return to Earth as soon as possible and to give everyone the all-clear, and then discuss what to do next.
They could make huge progress every day if they could practice in this place.
Thinking of this, he was ready to return to the earth through the loophole again. But he was surprised to find that the loophole was now covered by invisible energy and he could not enter it at all.
“This… This is a space seal!”
Qin Haodong was stunned. How could this place be sealed again after just half a day?
Only the ancient practitioners could set up such a solid seal while there were only warriors on the other side of the earth. What was going on? None of them could set up this seal!
Qin Haodong waved his Xuan Yuan Sword to attack the seal, but he found that the seal was so powerful that he couldn’t weaken it even if he tried his best.
“D*mn it!”
Qin Haodong was flustered. He had come over to check out this place, but now there was no way back and he became homeless.
He forced himself to calm down and slowly try to figure out the situation.
The only possible conclusion was that only the ancient masters like the Yellow Emperor could set up such a self-healing seal.
The Alien Demon Emperor broke the seal at the extremely Yin Hour with the Soul Spear, but that was just temporary. The seal soon went back to normal after a period of time and the space loophole was sealed again.
His parents, girlfriends, and children were all on the other side while he was trapped here and could not go back. That was absurd. If he had known this would happen, he would not have come over. No one had expected that the seal could heal itself.
Qin Haodong patted his forehead in annoyance, but there was nothing he could do.
He sat in front of the seal and kept thinking about how to get back.
But after sitting for a whole day, he still couldn’t think of a way.
He looked up at the solid seal. Of course, he could not collect tens of millions of souls like the Alien Demon Emperor. He had to reach the Grand Completion Realm at least to break the seal all by himself.
In the Cultivation World, the cultivators were divided into three classes. The Qi Refining Realm, Foundation Realm, Golden Core Realm, Nascent Soul Realm, and the Apotheosis Realm belonged to the third-class. Each realm had three stages, which were the early stage, the middle stage, and the late stage.
The Voiding Realm, the Combination Realm, and the Grand Completion Realm belonged to the second class. Each one of them was divided into four stages, including the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage, and the final stage. They could enter the first class after going through the Tribulation Realm.
In his previous life, he had spent 500 years reaching the Tribulation Realm from the Qi Refining Realm. But he could do it in a shorter time now due to his previous experience.
The only way now was to improve his cultivation as soon as possible, break the loophole seal, and reunite with his relatives.
Since after he made up his mind, he immediately made a formation to conceal the space loophole and then flew out of the mountain.
If he sat in the mountains to practice, he could reach the Tribulation Realm within two or three hundred years with the rich Spiritual Qi here and his previous experience.
But that would take too long. The time velocity ratio between the Cultivation World and the earth was 100:1. This meant that 500 years in the Cultivation World were equivalent to five years on earth.
But no one knew what things were like now. If everything changed when he returned to earth, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
So he needed to improve his cultivation as quickly as possible. It was not enough to absorb the Spiritual Qi only. He needed to get as many resources as possible and make pills.
With the previous exploration, he had a preliminary understanding of this place, so he flew straight to the nearest village.
However, he suddenly heard someone crying for help when he had flown for about 15 kilometers.
“Help… help me…”
Qin Haodong followed the voice and saw someone coming from a distance. The person seemed to have reached the Apotheosis Realm. He was flying swiftly and behind him was a huge python that was dozens of feet long.
“Help! Help!”
It was a girl! At this time, she also saw Qin Haodong and immediately flew over as if she was looking at a savior.
“Is that the Dragon Scale Python?”
This place was very similar to the Cultivation World. This girl was speaking the language of the Cultivation World and the Dragon Scale Python was also a fourth-level monster unique to this world. Qin Haodong didn’t expect to see it here.
There were nine kinds of demonic beasts in the Cultivation World. The fourth-level beasts were strong as a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm while the fifth-level monsters could compete with cultivators at the Apotheosis Realm.
The Dragon Scale Python was a fourth-level demonic beast. The patterns on its body were similar to dragon scales, which was how it got its name.
The demonic beast was good at defense, and it could fly at an extremely high speed, but it was not very strong, or at least, it was no match for cultivators at the Apotheosis Realm.
But then it seemed a little weird. A cultivator at the Apotheosis Realm, who was strong as a fifth-level demonic beast, was chased by a fourth-level beast and kept crying for help. What was going on?
Just as Qin Haodong was wondering what was happening, the woman was already close to him. She suddenly ran behind him, held his arm tightly, and shivered in fear.
The Dragon Scale Python followed closely behind and pounced on them.
Qin Haodong was about to kill it with his sword when he suddenly felt the Three-legged Golden Toad, which had been sleeping, stirring in the Spirit Beast Pouch.
Qin Haodong suddenly had an inspiration and the Three-legged Golden Toad appeared in front of the Dragon Scale Python.
At this moment, the Three-legged Golden Toad looked totally different from before. It was bigger and its body had turned golden, with golden stripes on its forehead.
“Fifth-level demonic beast?”
Qin Haodong realized that the Three-legged Golden Toad was now a fifth-level demonic beast. So it seemed that devouring three Alien Demon generals was of great help to it.
He was a little regretful. He should have let the Three-legged Golden Toad eat the Alien Demon Emperor. The three Alien Demon generals were of great help to it and the Demon Emperor might have turned it into a sixth-level demonic beast directly.
But that was just an idea. He was trapped here and could not go back for a while.
The Dragon Scale Python was rushing at them in an aggressive manner. But it quickly cowered at the sight of the Three-legged Golden Toad. There was a natural link between demonic beasts, and it was instinctively afraid of the higher level beasts.
Seeing that the toad was a fifth-level demonic beast, the Python was so frightened that it turned around and fled. But the toad did not give it the chance at all.
It directly swallowed the Dragon Scale Python.
After swallowing the Dragon Scale Python, the Three-legged Golden Toad came to Qin Haodong and rubbed against his arms, as if it was asking for credit.
“It’s so scary. Stop it!”
The girl, hiding behind Qin Haodong, shivered with fear at the sight of the Three-legged Golden Toad.
Qin Haodong was speechless. It seemed that she had already reached the late stage of the Apotheosis Realm, but why was she so timid.
“Don’t be afraid. It’s my spiritual beast. It won’t hurt you.”
“Really? Won’t it eat me?”
The woman asked timidly.
“Of course not. It’s not a demonic beast. It’s our friend.”
Hearing Qin Haodong’s words, the woman plucked up her courage and walked forward.
“She’s so beautiful!”
Even though he had seen so many beautiful women, Qin Haodong still felt amazed at the sight of this girl.
She was about 20 years old. The warrior’s robe emphasized her tall and slender figure. Her face and skin were perfect and her long black hair was tied into a ponytail that hung behind her head.
There was still a trace of fear on her face, which made people feel pity for her.
She was beautiful, but she didn’t seem to be a warrior. She should have been a valiant female warrior, but she behaved like a frightened bird.
