Chapter 2656 Swallowed

*Vrrrr!~*

With the sound of something exploding in the distance first, the pitch-black silence appeared and rapidly elongated in size, devouring space amidst its expansion. It quickly devoured a hundred-meter diameter of space and continued to grow, causing everyone to run!

*Whoosh!~*

Tanya suppressed her injuries and hurriedly caught Myria, whose eyes were glazed with nothing but the Ice Essence Orbs that were gleaming like treasures amidst the encompassing danger and dragged her away from the eye of the storm that was about to be engulfed. A myriad of icy swords enveloped them, turning into their shield as they made their way out, returning to Davis's location.

"Quick!"

Davis clenched his teeth as he awaited their return, intending to crush a spatial talisman as soon as they reached him.

"No! Space here has been thrown into chaos. We can't make an escape like that!"

However, Stella Voidfield quickly captured his wrist, causing him to panic ever so lightly, "What the-"

Davis turned to look around, wondering if he had anything that he could use to escape both outwardly and inwardly. He had left the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace back in his mansion, and the other constructs he possessed definitely wouldn't be able to handle or endure a spacequake of an unknown scale, so he had nothing to use in order to defend himself.

"Leave this to me..."

Just as he thought of taking out the crimson pagoda Shirley gifted him with, Stella Voidfield echoed again.

"Are you crazy?"

Davis turned to look at her. Although her voice was brisk, it was still weak. How could he depend upon this little girl to allow them to escape?

"Just believe me!"

Stella Voidfield screamed out, causing Davis to become stumped.

*Whoosh!~*

Tanya and Myria arrived before them, and with no time left to think, Davis clenched his teeth and grabbed Tanya with his other hand.

"Do it!"

"Void Vanquisher!"

Stella Voidfield clenched her teeth as she clasped her hands. The space before them abruptly undulated with a strange reverberation, beginning to break down unto itself as though being devoured.

Simultaneously, the borders of the spacequake caught up to them, trying to engulf them.

*Shh~*

A silent clash occurred between the two borders, and instead of an explosion occurring, space deflected space, causing the four of them to be pushed back along with the expanding spacequake.

Davis was shocked by this spectacle. However, looking at them not being engulfed by the damned spacequake, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed, but he was still nervous as Stella Voidfield trembled heavily.

"Pui!~"

A mouthful of blood spurted from her mouth, but she remained steadfast, still having her hands clasped as she continued to maintain her spatial technique.

As they were pushed back, Davis could sense that half of the hive became engulfed, that even the cyclone emerging from the depths of the icy-wind vent seemed to have gone tame in front of it. It couldn't resist the spacequake, completely becoming engulfed in it.

However, just as they were going to hit the walls of the hive, the spacequake stopped expanding, leaving them flying and crashing into the icy wall. Fortunately, Tanya endured the burden, allowing them to be free of extra injuries.

Abruptly, the spacequake started contracting back. Its pitch-black oval-shaped body kept decreasing in size, covering only half the hive before ending up as small as a small sphere the size of a fist, finally disappearing.

Davis and the others watched this scene with incredulity dwelling in their eyes.

From the moment the spacequake appeared, expanded and contracted, reduced to the size of a ball, and finally disappeared, only three seconds had passed. If previously he couldn't understand how terrible this natural disaster known as spacequake was, then now, he understood why people would bash Divergents for it.

It was completely silent and reaped people's lives in an instant over its expansion and contraction. Once engulfed within, it was over. It was even worse than a spatial crack appearing to suck in anything before it. Just who could they blame for something this terrible?

The moment a spacequake appeared, there was little someone could do even as an Immortal King, so for someone like Stella Voidfield to exist in their ranks who knew how to exactly counter a spacequake for some reason, he couldn't help but look at her with gratitude although, at this moment, he was buried in their bodies, feeling their softness enamor his face, arm, and even his palm.

*Whoosh!~*

Quickly, he stood up, patting his robe and waving his sleeve as though nothing had happened before panning his gaze at the aftermath.>

As expected, although the spacequake had done nothing to the sealed heart at the other end of the hive, it had eaten ninety percent of the area, leaving behind nothing.

Fortunately, while Myria and Stella Voidfield were building the pathway to the Ice Essence Orbs, he used his soul body to collect all the carcasses available on the battlefield. Some of them didn't include his kills, but he still picked them in case he could give them back to their rightful owners and possess some influence through it.

Naturally, the other party would be grateful for it. If not, he could always claim it as that was his spoils if he overwhelmed their bodies with death energy. Even autopsies wouldn't work in that case, as death and decay go hand in hand.

Nonetheless, such things weren't on his mind as he wanted to heal Tanya, who was probably heavily injured.

"...!"

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed a peculiarity.

At the western edge, where the spacequake had reached the limit of its expansion, there was a teenager with white hair wearing black-golden robes. It seemed to a young boy with a fairly good look, not so charming or devilish. He seemed to be clueless, blinking as he looked around, wondering where he was, but at this moment, as though the surroundings had become normal, the boy started shuddering as frost appeared around his body, seemingly like he was going to freeze to death.

*Bzzz!~*

At that moment, a burst of light energy descended on him, causing him to feel somewhat at ease.

Just as he looked around, seemingly searching for the source of that light energy, he saw a purple-robed man appear before him.

"Wah!~"

The young boy couldn't help but flinch as his heart began beating crazily under the enormous pressure that was suddenly suppressing him.

Davis's eyes were like sharp needles as they stabbed at that boy. He couldn't understand how exactly under the heavens a mortal would appear here, but this brat was a Law Rune Stage cultivator, leaving him even more confused.

"Speak! Who are you!?" He demanded, causing the young boy to shiver.

"Ah... I'm Yi Feng."

"Yi Feng?" Davis's eyes flickered. Although the name rang with a sense of familiarity, it was just a name. He was no longer bothered or intrigued by it as it was just one of the millions of ethnicity that assimilated with time in the current world due to the Sky Word Language.

"Excuse me, respected immortal..." Suddenly Yi Feng opened his mouth, although his expression still made it seem like he was incredibly nervous.

"What is this place? Where am I?"

"This place?" Davis's expression gleamed as he didn't directly say, "You're in the First Haven World."

He scoffed, intending to bully him into telling the truth, but then the other party revealed shock.

"What!? How can it be!?" Yi Feng appeared stunned.

"I'm from the Metal Planar Lower World. I have yet to ascend, so how can I have arrived at the First Haven World!?"

Suddenly, the young boy's expression couldn't help but change, "Is... is it because of the spacequake...?"

He gulped, seemingly becoming aware of the situation.

"You were swallowed by a spacequake?"

Davis raised his brows, causing Yi Feng to nod twice.

"Yes."

"Hmph! You can keep acting but let me confirm the veracity of your words with soulscour. Don't worry. My ability is beyond an average soul cultivator, and I have immense skill in soul scouring, so there's no real danger of you becoming a complete idiot."

Davis grabbed Yi Feng's head, causing the latter to become stiff and notice that he was incapable of retaliating. Although he heard Davis's words, there wasn't the slightest bit of comfort, making him feel like he was going to be killed.

Meanwhile, Davis had his brows furrowed as he was ready to use the Mind Sea Extraction Mirage Technique.

Although he got the feeling what the young boy said was the truth, for all he knew, this young boy might be a strange manifestation or could be controlled by the Unfettered Behemoth Ice Fiend. That sealed creature had given him too many surprises that he was no longer taking any chances on underestimating its capabilities.

"Congratulations, immortal inheritor of the Starmetal Sovereign Lower Realm! You are the last candidate to arrive at the First Haven World. Henceforth, the Candidacy will officially begin at the Grand Immortal Mountain Peak ten years from now."

But at this moment, a mysterious voice belonging to neither man nor a woman reverberated in Yi Feng's soul sea.

"..." Davis's lips curled, "HUH?"
