Chapter 775 Desolate Ruins Will!
Fang Yu’s tone was not friendly, because that was exactly what he thought.
The first time, he was sitting in a war chariot flying over the abyss when suddenly a giant palm reached out in mid-air, trying to crush his entire chariot, so of course he had to counterattack. The second time, it was also the Demon King who first shattered space and deployed the annihilation technique.
Both times, Fang Yu was in a state of forced counterattack.
Although he was always the winner, this was not a reason for him to bear all the blame.
“Old man, let me out quickly,” Fang Yu shouted.
There was no response.
“Either you capture that demon too, or you’re being unfair,” Fang Yu continued shouting.
“I… need not be fair,” an elderly voice responded.
Hearing these words, Fang Yu frowned.
After some thought, he didn’t want to dwell on the issue of the cage.
Taking this opportunity to ask about other information regarding this forbidden zone of life might be a better choice.
“Old man, you’re the will of this forbidden zone of life, right?” Fang Yu asked tentatively.
“…Yes.” The other party was silent for several seconds before giving an affirmative answer, then asked, “You… call this place the forbidden zone of life?”
“I didn’t name it, it was named by people who came here before,” Fang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly as he asked, “If this place isn’t called the forbidden zone of life, what’s its original name?”
“…Barren Void,” the elderly voice answered.
“Barren Void…” Fang Yu frowned deeply, carefully recalling his memories.
He was pondering whether, in the past five thousand years, he had ever heard of a place called Barren Void, or if he had ever come here.
Logically, if such a place had existed for a long time, even if he hadn’t been here before, he should have at least heard of it.
But after careful consideration, he couldn’t find any memory related to the words “Barren Void.”
“How could this be? The Far North region of the past… I’ve been there before, and even in its depths, it was just a training ground with various grades of monster beasts. When did this Barren Void appear?” Fang Yu found it increasingly strange.
“I want to know, when exactly was the Barren Void formed?” Fang Yu asked again.
“You will be locked in this cage for your entire life, what’s the use of asking more?” the will of the Barren Void countered.
“Precisely because of that, you should tell me more, satisfy my curiosity, after all, I can’t reveal these secrets to anyone else,” Fang Yu said.
“…The Barren Void was formed more than ten thousand years ago, exactly how many years, I can no longer remember,” the will of the Barren Void said.
More than ten thousand years ago…
If the Barren Void had existed for so long, why had the cultivation world never heard of it before?
According to Cang Lan, it was only when several explorers accidentally discovered this place a hundred years ago and recorded it that it became known as the forbidden zone of life.
Could it be… that the Barren Void had only opened up in the last two hundred years!?
“Was this place closed off for a very long period of time? Completely isolated from the world,” Fang Yu said.
The will of the Barren Void did not answer this question.
“As the will of this place, what is your duty?” Fang Yu asked again.
“To guard this place, to prevent destruction from outside forces like you,” the will of the Barren Void answered.
“Just that one duty? Nothing else? Like guarding some secret?” Fang Yu asked again.
To this question, the will of the Barren Void once again remained silent.
“Old man, that’s not fair. I’m going to be locked up here for life, and you’re not even willing to speak honestly with me?” Fang Yu raised his eyebrows and said.
“I only answer questions I wish to answer,” the will of the Barren Void said solemnly.
“Fine, then let me ask you one more thing. The territory adjacent to the Barren Void, you know it, the icy snowy place with many monster beasts… A few months ago, those beasts experienced a riot, and the cause was a strange sound coming from the Barren Void… Was this sound made by you?” Fang Yu asked.
“No.” This time, the will of the Barren Void answered quickly.
“Then do you know who made that sound?” Fang Yu’s heart stirred as he asked.
Around him, silence fell again.
Whenever it came to these critical questions, the will of the Barren Void would not answer.
This made Fang Yu very angry, but there was nothing he could do.
“Let me ask one more thing, I’ve heard there are many treasures here, is that true?” Fang Yu asked.
The surroundings remained silent.
Fang Yu asked several more questions in succession, but the will of the Barren Void no longer answered.
“It seems it won’t answer any more questions, I should focus on finding a way out of here first,” Fang Yu thought.
The cage before him was located in an independent space.
Compared to the water prison where Mie Ling was once held, this place was much more comfortable.
The water in the water prison and the chains binding Mie Ling greatly restricted him.
Otherwise, Mie Ling could have torn that space apart with just his physical strength.
The space where Fang Yu was now only had a slight pressure.
This pressure had no effect on Fang Yu.
Fang Yu only needed to use the Void Ring to build a spatial tunnel, find the exit point of the Barren Void, and he could easily leave.
But the prerequisite was that the entire process couldn’t be discovered by the will of the Barren Void.
Having figured out the plan, Fang Yu closed his eyes, silently activated the Void Ring, and began to construct the spatial tunnel.
…
The Demon King stood up, looked around at the devastated surroundings, and lowered his head to examine his damaged body.
“That human…”
Although Fang Yu had disappeared from sight, its heart was still filled with terror.
It had almost been killed.
For a being that had just received demon blood and awakened as a complete demon, this was undoubtedly a huge blow.
The Demon King lowered its head, raised its right hand, and clenched it into a fist.
“Zing…”
A black light immediately flashed across its body.
Then, the cracked white bones on its exterior began to rapidly repair themselves.
…
Qi Ruoqing saw with her own eyes how Fang Yu, who had charged toward the Demon King, suddenly disappeared.
After being stunned for a moment, she came to her senses.
Seeing the Demon King’s body flash with black light again, her heart tightened.
In this vast area, she might be the only living person left.
If the Demon King discovered her… the consequences would be unimaginable.
Qi Ruoqing immediately turned around and ran toward the back.
She needed to get back to the war chariot!
But what she didn’t expect was that her running created noise that immediately caught the attention of the distant Demon King.
The Demon King raised its head and looked in Qi Ruoqing’s direction.
It could sense the aura coming from that position.
“Someone is still alive?” Two terrifying red beams shot out from the Demon King’s pitch-black eyeballs.
…
“This space is right next to the Barren Void, saving me the trouble of finding it. Now I just need to establish the entry and exit points of the two spaces,” Fang Yu thought.
The Void Ring on his right index finger emitted a dazzling light.
Taking nearly five minutes, Fang Yu completely constructed the spatial tunnel.
The entire process went smoothly without any interference.
With everything prepared, Fang Yu activated the Void Ring.
At this moment, an energy appeared in the cage, trying to firmly suppress Fang Yu.
A cold light flashed in Fang Yu’s eyes as he threw a punch at the darkness before him!
“Boom!”
With a loud explosion, the barrier of this space was directly broken through!
“Whoosh!”
As the space shattered, Fang Yu’s entire body entered the spatial tunnel, heading toward the Barren Void.
…
Three seconds later, Fang Yu once again saw the gray sky above him.
Below him was the huge crater created by his battle with the Demon King.
The Demon King was nowhere to be seen.
“Right, where’s the war chariot?” Fang Yu thought, immediately sensing the presence of the Xuanran energy and summoning it.
“Whoosh!”
About half a minute later, the imperial war chariot, gleaming with brilliant golden light, flew back to Fang Yu.
Qi Ruoqing sat in the chariot, pale-faced, with red-rimmed eyes brimming with tears.
Looking up and seeing Fang Yu before her, she immediately stood up, extending her upper body as if wanting to embrace him.
Fang Yu frowned slightly, stepping back to avoid this inexplicable hug, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Seeing Fang Yu’s movement, Qi Ruoqing was stunned for a moment, then said with a trembling voice, “Just now… that monster wanted to kill me, fortunately the war chariot raised a shield to protect me…”
“The Demon King?” Fang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly as he asked, “Where is it?”
