Chapter 295 - 169: Advancing to the Sea Breaking Realm, Resonance with the Time Dao! (Double Length)_2
In the depths of Chen Kuang’s mind, a sense of clarity dawned upon him.
These strings... represent the Dao of "time and space."
This is the true score of the "Music Saint."
Using music to reveal the laws of nature, a single note unveils the myriad phenomena.
This is just one "Yu" character... what if the five notes were complete, how powerful would that be?
Chen Kuang vaguely sensed that the gap between Saints might be even greater than he imagined...
Xi Mengquan, that old scoundrel, hadn’t made a serious move in over a thousand years, rarely appearing, existing only in folklore.
But his last action was participating in the annihilation of the final ancient dynasty— the Daqi Dynasty.
The legend of that piece "Heaven’s Question," shattering half the mountains and rivers, came from this very battle.
Just from glimpsing this "Yu" character, Chen Kuang already felt Xi Mengquan’s strength was undoubtedly above Wang Shu Yuanjun’s.
However, not everyone could wield this "Yu" character to such an extent.
To pluck these strings, one must first induce resonance.
Merely comprehending a single "Dao Rhyme" is already difficult for ordinary people.
And at this moment, Chen Kuang comprehended two "Dao Rhymes" simultaneously!
One for "music," and the other for "time and space."
The synergy between the two allowed him to see the strings in this vast world and either pluck or snap one of them.
Chen Kuang "looked" at the string passing through the giant hand, his mind moving.
He felt his consciousness touch that string, gradually applying force...
He could sense the string was extremely taut, seemingly strained under tremendous stress, as if on the brink of snapping.
He understood this was because Wen Yao’s strength was too weak and couldn’t sustain the doubled Heavy Pupil Ancestral Call for long.
And at this moment, Chen Kuang was the final straw breaking the camel’s back!
Chen Kuang continued to exert pressure with his mind, but soon he was shocked to find his own Divine Soul rapidly exhausting and weakening, feeling quickly overwhelmed.
This "Yu" character consumes the Power of the Divine Soul!
Chen Kuang, without even having opened the Sea of Consciousness, naturally experienced immense depletion.
Trembling, he gritted his teeth; the pain from his Divine Soul exceeded all past torments, tearing into his soul, penetrating to the bone.
Fortunately, the string was already at its limits, and Chen Kuang’s Divine Soul was stronger than the average person’s, avoiding instant depletion.
However, he underestimated the power needed to sever this string.
Just plucking it depleted his Divine Soul; disconnecting Wen Yao and the "Ancestral God’s" power of "time and space" would require much more...
Chen Kuang took a deep breath.
Lacking the Sea of Consciousness and insufficient Divine Soul power?
Then simply open the Sea of Consciousness!
In the clouds before the palace of Chen Kuang’s Divine Soul, on the nine-tiered steps, a humanoid figure condensed, emanating a faint white light.
It was the likeness of Chen Kuang.
Standing on the ninth step, he lightly lifted a foot, effortlessly stepping onto the platform in front of the palace!
"Hoo—"
The mist before him suddenly dispersed, and the staggered palaces blurred and retreated hundreds of feet away.
But the scene at the platform’s center became clear.
It was a vast lake!
The water shimmered, the surrounding mist drawn inward, waves rolling and expanding outward!
For an ordinary Sea Breaking Realm to witness this would be shocking.
The so-called "Sea of Consciousness" is just a general term; the true determining factor of the water volume is the strength of the Divine Soul.
The size of the "Sea of Consciousness" divides into different Sea Breaking Realm levels.
They are classified as a pool, a lake, a sea.
At this moment, upon advancing to the Sea Breaking Realm, Chen Kuang’s "Sea of Consciousness" equated to an average lake’s realm!
And it wasn’t just any ordinary lake, but at least four to five times the area of a regular person’s.
The humanoid shadow resembling Chen Kuang slowly stepped into this lake, reaching out; the sword originally suspended high transformed into a waist-hung sword.
Then it floated, sitting high, absorbing the surrounding white mist, nurtured by heaven and earth.
This was the manifestation of Chen Kuang’s Divine Soul.
At this moment, Chen Kuang’s aura soared to new heights!
The previously unsustainable Divine Soul now had a new source of power.
Chen Kuang sighed with relief, refocused, and exerted himself once more.
And that string finally reached its limit, the final thread of connection completely snapped!
"Clang!"
A cracking sound echoed across the heavens and earth. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Chen Kuang suddenly opened his eyes!
The pale giant hand pressing towards him paused, then shattered with a roar!
The imposing "Eclipse Void Space" instantly collapsed, all phenomena vanished, then rapidly contracted into a bizarre, floating small black dot.
At this moment, Wen Yao’s Ancestor Summoning Divine Power was rendered utterly ineffective!
Wen Yao’s scream erupted simultaneously:
"Aaaaaaah! What did you do?!!! Impossible!!!"
He lowered his raised hands, clutching his eyes tightly, blood gushing from between his fingers, his aura visibly withering at an alarming rate.
With Heavy Pupil destroyed, Wen Yao’s path of "Sole Self" naturally couldn’t continue.
His hands were already shattered, revealing white bones, draped with pieces of flesh, appearing pitiful beyond compare.
