Chapter 1159 -1115: Insatiable Greed
“`
“Soul-devouring worms, you are truly insatiable!” Liao Xia burst out shouting, his palms radiating dazzling light, enveloping the white radiance.
Deep down, Liao Xia didn’t want to have any entanglements with soul-devouring worms as they were extremely troublesome, and they always moved in groups.
The soul-devouring worms of the Black Stone Domain were just one branch among the many; the strongest legion of soul-devouring worms wasn’t here.
Other cultivators from the Open Heaven Realm also took action immediately, preventing the soul-devouring worms from dividing up the spoils.
“You only have yourselves to blame for taking your time,” an effeminate voice rang out, filled with mockery.
...
“Hmph!”
Liao Xia snorted coldly and didn’t pursue a war of words. Just as he thought to push out the queen of the soul-devouring worms, the light from the bronze cauldron suddenly shrank.
Liao Xia instinctively turned his head toward the direction of the soul-devouring worm legion, as a force seemed to be influencing the remaining power of the bronze cauldron, and such intense resonance could only be achieved by the other half of the bronze cauldron from the past.
The energy in Liao Xia’s palms flipped, as he attempted to stop the actions of the soul-devouring worm queen, but in the next moment, a violent force burst forth from the bronze cauldron.
At the same time, the soul-devouring worm legion, unbeknownst to when, had formed a strange formation, and a power that disrupted spatial order instantly descended within thousands of miles, encompassing all those in the Rule Integration Realm and Open Heaven Realm.
The soul-devouring worms as a race were already inclined towards the laws of space. Now, as all soul-devouring worms deployed their spatial powers in unison, coupled with a trace of the bronze cauldron’s origin energy, they immediately turned this patch of space on its head.
Within the Xuanwu Formation, the cultivators from the Black Stone Domain’s Rule Integration Realm were desperately fending off the pursuit of the soul-devouring worms. Excluding the human race, the other races had already lost over a thousand in just the time that had passed.
And this number was only the beginning. As the Rule Integration Realm cultivators decreased, the power of the Xuanwu Formation diminished, and the losses would grow until eventual collapse.
As soon as the soul-devouring worms were ready to deploy their spatial powers, Chen Fei already had a premonition.
As the tumultuous spatial power descended, Chen Fei used the force from the self-destruction of five warriors to subconsciously gather the human Rule Integration Realm cultivators together.
“Buzz!”
The world lost color, and all directions were thrown into chaos, the only constant being the endless spatial turmoil sweeping across thousands of miles.
“Everyone gather around me!” Qiu Gongzhi shouted loudly.
At this moment, there was really no need for Qiu Gongzhi’s reminder; the three hundred human Rule Integration Realm cultivators were tightly clustered together.
The Xuanwu Formation was instantly shredded by this tempest of spatial chaos, and although the cultivators within the formations were unharmed, they looked at the scene before them, suddenly unsure of what to do.
The senses of those in the Rule Integration Realm could reach a thousand miles, but now, facing this spatial turbulence, they could neither see through it nor discern their current location or the exit.
The perception of those in the Rule Integration Realm, even those at the peak, was compressed to within ten miles.
The soul-devouring worms, in their eagerness to snatch at the spirit material inside the bronze cauldron, had disrupted space completely. It wasn’t just the Xuanwu Formation affected, but even the spirit material within the bronze cauldron’s light had been scattered into the spatial turmoil.
Relying on their sensitivity to spatial laws, the soul-devouring worms began frantically fishing for those precious treasures within the spatial chaos.
Dozens of Open Heaven Realm cultivators unleashed all their power, with no time to settle the score with the devouring worms. These cultivators also began searching for the seventh-tier supreme treasures they needed within the spatial chaos.
Naturally, these Open Heaven Realm cultivators now loathed the soul-devouring worms.
But to some extent, certain cultivators in the Open Heaven Realm felt a sense of anticipation.
Originally, the few treasures within the bronze cauldron that had a chance to help an Open Heaven Realm late-stage cultivator breakthrough to the peak, were none of their concern and were certainly meant for Liao Xia and a few others at the late stages of the Open Heaven Realm.
But now, with the materials inside half the bronze cauldron all scattered, whether one could find those few treasures now depended somewhat on luck.
Of course, the impact of this spatial chaos was not as significant on the strength of the late-stage Open Heaven Realm cultivators, contrary to what one might imagine.
Though the few treasures had been flung far away, Liao Xia and several late-stage Open Heaven Realm cultivators could still vaguely capture their whereabouts and were now frantically rushing towards them, planning to grab them first.
Inside Chen Fei’s soul, the Main Rule Crystal Stone for space flashed faintly with light.

On the mastery of the Space Main Rule, Chen Fei naturally didn’t dare to claim superiority over the mother of the soul-devouring worms, but the spatial chaos before him truly didn’t affect Chen Fei much.
At least in Chen Fei’s perception, he could sense his current position.
As such, leaving was not a difficult task for Chen Fei.
But if Chen Fei were the first to lead the humans out of this spatial chaos, it would place the human race in a position far too conspicuous.
At the moment, the mood of those Open Heaven Realm cultivators, especially those at the late stages, wasn’t very good.
If they were to take out their frustrations on a few races, would the human race become collateral damage?
Those cultivators and their auras were very clear to Chen Fei now, but Chen Fei was also aware of his own current strength.
There would always be chances to settle scores bit by bit in the future. For now, lying low wasn’t a shameful act, especially since these Open Heaven Realm cultivators had been cultivating for thousands, or even tens of thousands of years.
“Emperor, where should we head now?” the human Rule Integration Realm cultivators turned to Qiu Gongzhi and his two companions.
Qiu Gongzhi’s brow was furrowed; with the power of three secondary rules he commanded, he too couldn’t penetrate the spatial chaos before him. Under such circumstances, he didn’t dare lead the human Rule Integration Realm cultivators around haphazardly.
Otherwise, if these remaining three hundred human Rule Integration Realm cultivators were lost here, Qiu Gongzhi would bear a lifetime of guilt.
“`
“Imperial Sovereign, if you can trust this junior, I can try to explore ahead!”
Chen Fei stepped forward, cupped his hands in salutation, and at the same time, the power of the Space Secondary Rules [Big] rippled around him, resonating with the surrounding spatial turbulence.
“Space Secondary Rules?” Seeing the power rippling around Chen Fei, everyone’s eyes lit up slightly.
The scene where Chen Fei had used the strength of nine warriors to forcefully protect everyone from the soul-devouring worms was still vivid in their minds, which instinctively made their trust in Chen Fei even higher.
Coupled with the Space Secondary Rules, facing the current spatial turbulence, could Chen Fei truly lead them out?
Qiu Gongzhi looked at Chen Fei without asking if he was certain, but the very fact that Chen Fei dared to stand up at this time demonstrated a temperament and a willingness to bear responsibility that was unmatched by ordinary people.
“Good!”
Countless thoughts flashed through Qiu Gongzhi’s mind, and he nodded his head.
In his heart, Qiu Gongzhi had already made a decision: as long as they could get through this calamity, he would definitely use the full power of his clan to supply everything Chen Fei needed for his cultivation.
Moreover, Chen Fei’s previous contributions were more than enough for the human race to do so.
“Everyone, come this way!”
Chen Fei gave a salute to Qiu Gongzhi and the other three human imperial sovereigns, then took the lead, flying in a certain direction.
The others didn’t hesitate at all and followed closely behind Chen Fei.
In such a moment, no hesitation was needed; since the decision was placed in Chen Fei’s hands, it meant they completely trusted his judgment.
Chen Fei sensed the condition of the spatial turbulence within a thousand miles, avoiding those violent spatial turbulences and also staying far away from those in the Open Heaven Realm.
A few thousand miles, for the nearly ten thousand individuals in the Rule Integration Realm and dozens in the Open Heaven Realm, was a vast space, entirely adequate for concealing the three hundred people from the Rule Integration Realm of the human race.
From what Chen Fei could sense, the Rule Integration Realm had very limited perception in this area, those in the Open Heaven Realm had much greater perception, but they were all focused on chasing after the seventh-tier precious treasures and not paying attention to the plight of those in the Rule Integration Realm.
Even the Open Heaven Realm individuals from the Wu Meng Clan and Xuan Clan had only left one or two individuals behind in their clans, and the rest were also scavenging for seventh-rank spirit materials scattered inside the bronze cauldron.
Chen Fei, leading the Rule Integration Realm of the human race, made a half-circle through the spatial turbulence and saw the Wu Meng Clan and Xuan Clan, led by their respective Open Heaven Realm elites, leaving the turbulent space.
The descendants of the Soul-devouring Race were the third Race to leave, followed by the Evil Clans.
Although the ancestor of the Evil Clans could only be considered half an Open Heaven Realm, they still held many advantages over the Rule Integration Realm and therefore managed to lead the Evil Clans’ Rule Integration Realm to safety.
The ancestor of the Evil Clans hesitated, considering whether to contend for the supreme treasures within the spatial turbulence, but thinking of the terror of the true Open Heaven Realm, they ultimately abandoned this idea.
The Hill Clan, through sheer happenstance, also left the spatial turbulence, followed by the Forest Clan and Ice Race.
These were all fortuitous coincidences that actually resulted in their safe departure.
Chen Fei imperceptibly led the human race through the spatial turbulence, but overall, they were moving towards the edge, out of the turbulence.
“Buzz!”
A massive fluctuation suddenly rippled from the distance, spreading throughout the entire area of spatial turbulence. Chen Fei glanced over; it was several late-stage Open Heaven Realm individuals fighting with the soul-devouring queen.
Chen Fei didn’t think about grabbing those Rule Crystals, as that would be quite conspicuous in the eyes of those in the Open Heaven Realm.
Moreover, there was no need; as long as they could safely leave this place, the Black Stone Domain would have a brief period of calm.
After all, the supreme treasure of the Soul-devouring Race had been taken, and both the Wu Meng Clan and Xuan Clan had suffered losses, so they wouldn’t start a war soon. This interval of time was sufficient for Chen Fei to cultivate.
Furthermore, inside Chen Fei’s mystical treasures were five Rule Crystals, which alone could significantly advance Chen Fei’s strength.
After some twists and turns, the human race was now less than three hundred miles from the edge of the spatial turbulence.
During this period, those late-stage Open Heaven Realm individuals fought more fiercely with the soul-devouring queen, probably contending over some supreme treasure.
At the same time, other Open Heaven Realm individuals also began fighting with other seventh-tier soul-devouring worms, making the situation within the entire spatial turbulence increasingly dangerous.
Two more Races from the Black Stone Domain narrowly escaped, while three other Rule Integration Realm groups were caught in the aftermath of the Open Heaven Realm battles and reduced to ashes.
Chen Fei saw that the timing was about right and led the Rule Integration Realm of the human race towards the edge of the spatial turbulence in a diagonal line.
Suddenly, Chen Fei’s gaze wavered; within hundreds of miles from his perception, an object slightly resonated with the Bronze Rune in his Source Point Space.
And as Chen Fei extended his perception to that location, he saw a large Bronze Fragment undulating with the spatial turbulence.
The Bronze Fragment emitted no Vital Energy and had no fluctuations; if not for the Bronze Rune in the Source Point Space, even with Chen Fei’s mastery of Space Rules, he would not have been able to sense this Bronze Fragment.
The shape of the Bronze Fragment resembled the ear of a bronze cauldron and was quite intact.
Chen Fei didn’t lead the human race hundreds of miles toward it; instead, he activated the soul within him governing the Space Rules and gave the spatial turbulence a nudge.
The spatial turbulence surged like a tide, striking the cauldron’s ear and sending it flying towards the human race’s direction.
As Chen Fei led the human race to fly outward, he intermittently nudged the spatial turbulence, drawing the cauldron’s ear ever closer.
