Chapter 94 The Secret of the Sky, The Deadly Wind Blade

"Because our team noticed the three of you circling around the West Gate, seemingly looking for a way out, the captain said you might have collected enough 'Sky Wind' and were planning to return, so... we decided to rob you."

"Please, please forgive me! I was really wrong..."

The adventurer cried out in despair.

Ye Yang was speechless. He just wanted to get close to the edge of the Sky Maze and use the Resonance Space-Time Sensing to see if he could "exploit a bug" and gain a view of the outside side of the maze.

Perhaps we will make some discoveries.

Unexpectedly, this small team mistook me for someone planning to leave the maze... and followed me the whole way.

"Tsk, it seems the environment of this maze easily incites greed in people's hearts. After all, the space is still quite small compared to the star level, and the wind walls are a good way to destroy evidence."

Ye Yang shook his head and casually killed the subdued adventurer.

"Master, a total of nine 'Celestial Winds' have been collected from this team!"

A servant respectfully handed over three bottles.

One bottle has two lines, one bottle has only one line, and the last bottle has a full six lines!

This "Sky Wind" is a unique product of the Qingfeng World. It is a gas with special energy that can be restrained by genetic energy.

The Cosmic Mercenary Alliance sells special bottles that can temporarily store these "Sky Winds," and Ye Yang bought two.

Now I've almost finished the task in one go.

"No wonder these adventurers would consider robbery; killing and arson are quick and easy." Ye Yang collected all three bottles: "Let's continue exploring towards the edge of the labyrinth."

……

Although the Sky Maze of the Qingfeng World occupies the entire sky of the world and is incredibly vast, the world has boundaries, and this maze must also have boundaries.

Ye Yang and his two companions continued to explore, and by recording their exploration routes, they quickly drew their movement trajectories in space.

"The maze's passageways seem to be intentionally guiding intruders away from the boundary, with relatively fewer routes leading to it."

"But I did it intentionally, and eventually I reached the far west."

There was a blue wind wall in front of Ye Yang.

Beyond this wind barrier... through the resonance of spacetime, one discovers an even deeper wind barrier.

"My senses can't penetrate it at all. I can only sense the unfathomable wind-attribute energy inside through spacetime... It's all wind generated by the World Lord using the primordial energy of the universe, which can easily annihilate even a universe-level being."

"The thickness of the wind wall at this boundary exceeds the combined thickness of five normal layers."

Shaking his head helplessly, Ye Yang recalled that when he entered the maze, he sensed that the lowest level of the wind wall was the same thickness as the ordinary wind wall.

"Perhaps... the topmost wind barrier is just as thin as the regular wind barrier?"

The Qingfeng World has been explored and developed for countless years, and powerful realm lords must have visited it as well.

Therefore, all the secrets that could be explored have been explored, and all the treasures that could be taken have been taken.

But through this celestial labyrinth, Ye Yang always felt that the Lord of the Qingfeng Realm was hiding something important, which could only be opened by those who met certain conditions.

Ye Yang looked at those wind walls:

"The 'Raging Winds' within these wind walls are highly destructive, but the D-grade metal I threw in cannot be instantly destroyed, so even a powerful domain lord can barely survive inside."

"Not to mention the Realm Lords... so Realm Lord level experts can rampage around inside."

"But against those below the Domain Lord level, it's almost a guaranteed kill... The reason I say 'almost' is because I suspect that if one can step into the threshold of the Wind Origin Law and follow the fluctuations of 'Wind Flow,' the damage can be greatly reduced, or even directly made immune."

Babata asked doubtfully, "So you want to comprehend the fundamental law of wind? I don't recommend you do that. Comprehending the fundamental laws of fire and space at the same time is most suitable for you. Any more than that will exhaust your energy."

Ye Yang nodded: "That's what I think too, so although I want to explore the true secrets of this Qingfeng World, I won't force myself to."

"But since I'm here for a life-or-death experience anyway, the secrets of this Qingfeng World have piqued my interest, so I'll spend more time on it... 5 years, I'll leave if I don't gain anything within 5 years. Fighting ordinary ninth-tier Hengxing is no longer of much use to me."

……

Accompanied by two attendants, Ye Yang began his exploration towards the top level.

The Sky Maze is three-dimensional, with branching paths in all directions.

"Time flies in this cave! Three months have already passed."

After another rest period, Ye Yang glanced at the time and couldn't help but sigh.

"You can already cast seven illusions in the resonant spacetime state, but you can only cast two illusions in the virtual universe with your ordinary body. This shows that your bloodline is very powerful, but it also shows that your understanding of the fundamental laws of space is not yet complete, and you need to continue to work hard!" Babata said.

Ye Yang said helplessly, "My cultivation time has been fragmented lately, and I've basically been using it to cultivate the 'Illusory Soul Imprint'."

Whether it is the fundamental law of space or the fundamental law of fire, both are incredibly profound and vast to comprehend.

Human energy is limited, and being too distracted will only lead to slow progress in everything.

At this moment, Ye Yang couldn't help but yearn for the talent of creating clones. With each additional clone, his speed of comprehending laws and cultivating secret techniques would double.

If the clone's bloodline is extraordinary and it is naturally in perfect harmony with the origin of the universe, its speed will only be faster!

"It's been half a month since we've encountered any other adventurers. The pressure from the invisible winds here is getting stronger and stronger. Without a cosmic-level ability, you simply can't get close to the edge of the raging winds."

"I think we're getting close to the maze's true 'ceiling'."

Ye Yang, accompanied by two attendants, continued his exploration.

This time, however, they only continued for a little over three hours before reaching a fork in the road, where one path led straight uphill.

"This vertical passage is 29 kilometers long?!" Ye Yang was taken aback at first, then called to one of his followers, "You go up first."

The attendant quickly rushed forward and reported, "Master, there's no danger! There are two more branching paths ahead..."

Ye Yang nodded and flew up with another follower.

"Here... the pressure of the invisible wind is significantly stronger... This shaft was a shortcut, saving us at least five days of exploration."

Ye Yang continued to sense things and said softly.

The three flew at a moderate speed within the passageway.

However, at that moment, Ye Yang suddenly widened his eyes and said to his entourage in front of him, "Stop right now!"

puff!

Blood splattered, then, under the influence of that invisible wind, was quickly squeezed into the middle of the passage, forming a long, thin line...

A severed arm floated slowly, moving forward.

"My hand—"

The attendant at the front turned pale and quickly retreated, then began to absorb the energy of Gem No. 003 that Ye Yang had given him to repair his severed arm.

Ye Yang narrowed his eyes, staring at an extremely thin and pale blue crescent-shaped wind blade in front of him.

"Raging and frivolous? No, not at all, it's similar but not quite."

"This power is almost imperceptible unless you are directly harmed by it."

Ye Yang said in a low voice:

"Only those who are extremely sensitive to wind-attribute energy, or who possess a wind domain or even cross the threshold of the fundamental laws of wind, can keenly perceive its existence."

But what if it goes unnoticed?

The bloodline and severed arm in the passage ahead are your fate!

The attendant, alerted by Ye Yang, slowed down in time, thus avoiding being sliced ​​into countless pieces by the unseen wind blades.
