Chapter 541: Chapter 316: The World Is So Vast

The night fog exploded, and the pitch-black sky seemed to be slashed open, with blinding light forming a massive channel accompanied by deafening sounds.

The sound was overwhelmingly loud, causing many on the ship to stagger, with some even sitting down on the deck abruptly.

The channel descended from beyond the sky, almost touching the ground, surrounded by dense white fog.

Soon, the thick fog began to swirl around it as if it were trying to spin.

“Could this be… Dragon Water Absorption?” an astonished Fourth Realm veteran exclaimed.

Such a spectacular phenomenon is only recorded in Ancient Books and cannot be seen in ordinary times.

Everyone on the three flying ships felt their scalps tingle, as legends appeared before their eyes.

Someone reacted swiftly, flying towards the channel.

Because, according to legend, Dragon Water Absorption might contain “Dragon Blood,” priceless, capable of transforming bones and significantly enhancing one’s physique and talent.

This is a treasure worth its weight in gold!

“Foolish, come back quickly!” an elder shouted.

Even if the Dragon Water Absorption phenomenon appears, it doesn’t always come with “Dragon Blood.” Often, there’s nothing, and it’s extremely dangerous.

“This is an atypical Dragon Water Absorption; don’t get involved!” Jin Yuan also shouted.

Typically, the Dragon Water Absorption phenomenon happens in large lakes, a thin channel reaching the surface of lakes and seas. What is this place now? It’s a barren land.

Some froze, yet others’ Consciousness Spiritual Light charged even faster.

“It’s not a Dragon Water Absorption over lakes or seas, but if any Creation appears, it would far surpass the ‘Dragon Blood’ recorded in the Ancient Books, enough to tempt even Earth Immortals, its value immeasurable!”

With a swish, the first figure dashed inside.

“Ah!” he exclaimed.

Following closely, two others stopped abruptly and asked, “What happened?”

“There’s really blood!” the person’s voice trembled.

He seemed very excited, rushing to obtain the Dragon Blood.

“No!” he cried out in agony, struggling with all his might, trying to retreat.

However, he was like being trapped in a Quagmire, unable to escape, his Consciousness Spiritual Light blurred, dissolved by the glowing blood, his howls futile.

“What did you see?” People outside shouted, retreating quickly.

“It’s not the ‘Dragon Blood’ recorded in ancient texts; it’s a strange red energy substance. Why does heaven treat me this way? Ah, there’s a treasure above, emitting Golden Radiance, it seems like a channel leading to a mysterious place.”

This expert on the Immortal Road knew escape was unlikely, and at the last moment, he tried to stay calm, describing the situation deep within the white fog.

Then, he was dissolved, and his Consciousness Spiritual Light dissipated.

“Is there really… ‘Dragon Blood’?”

At this time, some older figures argued seriously, believing the red substance to be the mysterious blood of advanced beings, which the Soul Light of that Third Realm great perfection expert couldn’t withstand.

The massive channel fluctuated with the white fog, and it itself began to rotate, like a tornado, stirring up violent currents.

In fact, the moment the three flying ships saw it appear, their respective captains decisively ordered a change in flying trajectory to avoid it.

However, now, as it spun uncontrollably, its range expanded rapidly, approaching the first flying ship.

As for the two Conscious Spirit Lights outside the channel, they had already been swept inside.

“Quick, escape!”

The three flying ships accelerated, changing course to avoid the unpredictable glowing channel.

“Crack!” the first flying ship was touched, its bow breaking, sustaining severe damage before even nearing the channel, the ship would likely disintegrate.

With a loud boom, indeed, it was shredded by the expanding mysterious channel.

At the critical moment, only a portion of people managed to escape on the backs of Exotic Birds and Flying Beasts.

Another portion had their Consciousness Spiritual Light escape, permanently losing their Body, akin to rootless duckweed, destined to wither and die.

The ship Qin Ming was on developed a crack but managed to escape the massive death vortex.

Another flying ship was similarly slightly damaged but narrowly avoided it.

Fortunately, the channel gradually stabilized, no longer expanding outward.

Everyone’s back was chilling; just a simple journey, and such catastrophe descended upon them.

Qin Ming couldn’t calm his heart; the unknown Yewu World was truly perilous.

The two flying ships stopped far away, and everyone onboard fell silent as they gazed at the glowing channel, half the people on the ships just perished like that.

The three flying ships were not large, acting as small rescue vessels, and now carrying mainly the injured and sick, even so, there were five or six dozen people on each ship.

The glowing channel lingered, connecting the sky and the ground.

“What exactly is this?” Qin Ming couldn’t help but ask.

He noticed that some elders’ eyes burned with desire, eager to dash up into the night sky to find its source.

Jin Yuan said, “It’s the mysterious ‘Dragon Water Absorption,’ or a similar unknown ‘phenomenon.'”

“This…” Qin Ming knew Dragon Water Absorption, having seen it recorded in the Life Changing Scripture.

Moreover, it was rumored that Cao Qianqiu had once ventured into a Dragon Water Absorption channel and obtained ‘Dragon Blood.’

“Has anyone explored the essence of these mysterious, unknown phenomena?” Qin Ming asked again.

No matter how you look at it, this doesn’t resemble a dragon drinking water.

Because there’s not even a creek nearby, no Fire Spring on the land, utter darkness, not a single blade of grass within tens of thousands of miles.

Once the channel stabilized in that area, people on the two flying ships no longer felt tense.

Jin Yuan spoke calmly, “Throughout the ages, many have researched, speculating on its cause, truth, and there are many hypotheses.”

Qin Ming’s interest was immediately piqued, asking him to elaborate.
