Chapter 3615
Discussions about Zi Chen could often be heard in the taverns, big and small.
After this battle, Zi Chen's name had spread throughout the entire Saint Spirit Sector. All the forces were talking about him.
During this period, the most discussed topic was where Zi Chen had gone after he disappeared.
But no one knew.
In that place that called itself the Immortal Region, there were many existences like Lei Lan, and they were still searching for various fortuitous encounters.
Even though Lei Wushuang purposely blocked the news, Lei Lan still heard a lot about Zi Chen.
In fact, she blamed herself. Zi Chen couldn't have handed over the Soul-amassing Crystal mine to the Death Prison Star Pirates for no reason.
She knew how much Zi Chen hated them. But Lei Lan knew that she had a lot to do with why Zi Chen handed over the Soul-amassing Crystal mine.
Other than himself, the pirates of the Death Prison had nothing else that could threaten Zi Chen.
In other words, the culprit that caused Zi Chen to be hunted down by the Holy Thunder Clan was actually her.
But so what if she knew?
She was only a four-star. She couldn't change anything.
After Zi Chen disappeared for a whole year, Lei Wushuang found Lei Lan and said, "You can go back now."
"Is there news about Zi Chen?" Lei Lan's eyes lit up. She looked at Lei Wushuang with hope.
Lei Wushuang shook his head. "No, but his Tianwu World is still intact. He should still be alive."
"Oh," Lei Lan replied and became dejected once again.
"The mining here is almost done. You can go back to the Holy Thunder Clan. The Holy Thunder Clan will give you the contribution you deserve this time," Lei Wushuang said.
"What about Zi Chen?" Lei Lan asked again.
"Because Zi Chen made a big mistake, the resources that should be given to him have been temporarily held back."
Seeing the unwillingness in Lei Lan's eyes, Lei Wushuang continued, "Actually, this is already the best result. I heard that it was because of Holy Master Lei Di. Otherwise, all of Zi Chen's gains would have been given to the Lei Zheng family."
"Why should we give it to them?
They were the ones who wanted to harm Zi Chen! "Lei Lan was clearly very angry.
"Because this time, the Lei Zheng family represented justice and carried out the orders of the Holy Thunder Clan, resulting in heavy casualties."
Lei Wushuang smiled. However, there was an unconcealable ridicule in his smile.
The Lei Zheng family was really good at scheming.
Not only did he want to kill Zi Chen, but he also wanted to take away all of his gains.
However, they had never expected that Zi Chen would not die and that Saint Venerable Lei Di would return, causing the Lei Zheng family's plan to fail completely.
Speaking of which, this time, the Lei Zheng family's efforts were all for naught, and their losses were huge!
He hadn't gotten anything yet.
After the exploration of this place came to an end, Lei Lan chose to return to the Holy Thunder Clan.
At this time, of course, no one dared to cause trouble for her. This was because all the forces in the know knew that Saint Venerable Lei Di was in a violent rage.
Under his anger, the Lei Zheng family, who was already having a hard time, had recently become even worse.
…
…
Zi Chen sat cross-legged. An entire year had passed.
During this year, he had been comprehending the Ancient Thunder Flame Technique and had not moved at all.
Han Nu and Chung Ho would often leave. Sometimes, they would go out for a few days, and sometimes, they would go out for months.
The two of them did not care too much about Zi Chen's lack of progress in his cultivation. If the Ancient Thunder Flame was so easy to cultivate, it would not deserve to be called Ancient Thunder Flame.
On this day, a light suddenly appeared on Zi Chen's body. Following that, a powerful aura fluctuation spread out from his body.
After cultivating for an entire year, he opened his eyes and stretched out his finger. A force appeared at the tip of his finger.
It was like a flame with countless streaks of lightning swimming on its surface.
This was the Ancient Thunder Flame!
As soon as it appeared, there was an additional pressure in the air. It was as if a door that had been sealed for countless years had opened, and an ancient aura had descended upon the world.
This was the result of Zi Chen's year of bitter cultivation. He had finally evolved the first Ancient Thunder Flame power.
Chung Ho raised his head and looked forward with a hint of surprise in his eyes. According to his estimation, Zi Chen would need at least two years to successfully condense the first Ancient Thunder Flame power.
He did not expect that it would only take a year.
Everything was difficult at the beginning. The first Ancient Thunder Flame was extremely difficult to form, but once the first strand of power appeared, everything else would be much easier.
Zi Chen stood up. He was in a pretty good mood. The power of the Ancient Thunderflame was indeed extraordinary.
"Not bad."
Chung Ho nodded at Zi Chen and said with a smile.
Zi Chen saw Chung Ho, but did not see Lady Frost. He turned his head and looked around. In this huge space, only the Holy Thunder Ancient Tree stood tall.
Above his head were countless space-time turbulences, crisscrossing and occasionally falling down. Every time this happened, a ray of light would flow out from the Holy Thunder Ancient Tree, blocking the turbulence.
It was like a world barrier, blocking all the turbulence outside.
"What is this place?"
Zi Chen asked the question in his heart.
"A strange place," Chung Ho replied.
"That's it?"
Zi Chen looked at him in confusion. What kind of answer was this?
Chung Ho said with a smile, "What else?
Do I have to tell you that this is the Demon Suppression Sect?
We are all gatekeepers? "
Demon Suppression Sect!
Gatekeepers!
Zi Chen seemed to have vaguely guessed something, and his expression changed drastically.
"Could it be …"
Zi Chen was shocked, but he did not know how to respond.
"That's right. This is the place that leads to the Demon World."
Chung Ho pointed at the sky and said, "Do you see those turbulences?
As long as we can pass through them, we can reach the Demon World. "
"How could there be an entrance here?"
Zi Chen said in disbelief, "Didn't they say that the three realms were not connected?"
Chung Ho asked, "If the three realms were not connected, then how did we know about the God and Demon Races?"
Zi Chen froze, not knowing how to answer.
Chung Ho continued to point above. "This place is to stop those Demon Race experts, because they cannot pass through the space-time barrier and will not mistakenly enter this world.
As for those weak existences, if they are lucky enough, they can still descend upon the Saint Spirit World.
Of course, the same is true for the God Race. "
"Then in that case, there is another God Suppression Sect?"
"You really know how to draw inferences from one example. That's right, there is indeed another place. There is also someone overseeing it to stop the God Race."
In the countless legends of the Saint Spirit World, it was clearly stated that there was no place in this world that led to the God Realm and Demon Realm. The only time the two sides met was in the countless battlefields, but in the end, they would only return to their original places.
Now, he clearly knew the greatest secret of this world.
Then, a thought suddenly appeared in Zi Chen's mind. He asked somewhat excitedly, "If that's the case, then is there a passage that leads to the outside of the three realms?"
"What do you mean?" Chung Ho asked, puzzled.
"I once met a race that called themselves the Immortal Race, but they were very weak and only wanted to return to the Immortal World."
Zi Chen said, "Or, do you also control a passage to the Immortal World?
Or a passage outside of the three realms? "
Chung Ho looked at Zi Chen with an extremely strange expression. He shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it. There is only the three realms in this world."
Zi Chen did not agree with these words back then, because the former Xue Wu should have come from a place outside of the three realms.
Also, the mysterious space that the ruler of the Immortal City wanted to open was definitely not within the three realms.
Unfortunately, no matter how he asked, Chung Ho said that there was no such thing, which made him feel very helpless.
Sister Han Nu seemed to be very easy to talk to, so Zi Chen decided to wait for her to return before asking her.
