Upon the luminous Moonstone fragment, Shi Yan’s eyes snapped open, fixing on a certain direction with a grave expression. From that direction surged an intensely chaotic wave of energy, replete with destructive, world-ending explosions, accompanied by spatial blades that tore through the firmament, causing his very soul to tremble.

He was certain: the region his divine sense perceived was absolutely fraught with peril! According to Audrey, only in arduous, perilous lands imbued with immense dread would there be even a slim chance of encountering other beings, and a possibility of harvesting rare treasures from the “Void Sea.” “Found anything?” Ever since their last exchange, Audrey had been quietly observing his movements.

Now, seeing Shi Yan’s solemn look, she was delighted rather than alarmed. A dazzling radiance bloomed across her face, as pure and crystalline as snow jade.

With a soft exclamation, she rose, her beautiful legs moving her like a gracefully dancing emerald butterfly, swiftly gliding over. The surrounding space was littered with shattered stars hanging like colossal dust motes in every corner of the Sea.

Far in the distance, brilliant streams of starlight could be faintly discerned, converging powerfully toward a locus of energy turmoil. Bolts of thunder, like furious dragons roaring at the heavens, sent jolts of thunderous sound that unsettled the very spirit.

Streaks of scorching white blades, like sickles cleaving the cosmos, sliced through many fragments of stars, leaving behind surfaces as smooth and level as if cut from tofu. Those blades, terrifyingly, were the Spatial Blades renowned throughout the world for their sharpness; yet, they were not wielded by masters of spatial profound mysteries, and their cutting intensity seemed far more dreadful than even Dicarlo’s full might.

Shi Yan had no doubt that even an Immortal Realm expert, struck once by those glaring blades, would be cleaved limb from limb. “It’s over there!” His expression heavy, he pointed toward the confluence of meteors ahead.

Secretly channeling his power, he turned his head to Audrey and abruptly asked, “Are you ready?” Audrey gazed deeply ahead, her eyes shimmering with a trace of astonishment, her heart momentarily awed. After a short pause for thought, she nodded resolutely.

“I am ready.” Shi Yan said no more. The rhomboid Moonstone beneath him transformed into a stream of cold moonlight and suddenly accelerated, plunging directly toward that perilous zone.

Audrey’s breathing grew rapid, her full, delicate chest undulating. Her beautiful eyes spilled waves of chaotic residual energy, like sparks flying off, fluttering toward them like millions of fireflies.

These residual energies, visible to the naked eye, struck like a downpour of steel needles, delivering an intensely sharp piercing force. Initially, she had stubbornly refused to summon a divine-power shield, choosing instead to withstand the onslaught with her divine body, much like Shi Yan.

As a result, those firefly-like sparks struck her fitted dress, tearing numerous fingernail-sized holes, revealing much of her breathtakingly fair skin. Now that they were closer, she realized those streaking meteors were colossal asteroids of various hues—dark red, orange-red, grayish-white—some crystalline and diamond-like, all bizarrely shaped.

These asteroids were not originating from their current region but from another direction, a hazy expanse resembling a sea of meteorites, within which trillions of fragments floated. Now, all those meteorites seemed activated, as if imbued with life, moving and shooting toward the direction Shi Yan sensed.

As if pulled by some unseen gravity, they flowed at incredible speed toward that shadowy region ahead. There were tens of thousands of these meteorites, and in their rapid transit, some collided, resulting in massive explosions whose force alone could pulverize a first-level Immortal Realm cultivator.

The sparks that struck Audrey were merely the residual shockwaves from those distant asteroid explosions; even the aftermath was intensely sharp, tearing her garments into numerous rents. At this moment, Shi Yan and Audrey stood upon the Moonstone fragment, still some distance from the stream of meteorites.

Shi Yan turned, observing Audrey’s newly perforated attire with amusement. He grinned, raised an eyebrow, and declared, “That new outfit is quite striking; I personally prefer it.

Don’t change it; let me feast my eyes a bit longer.” Audrey’s skin, fair as jade, showed patches of tempting, tender white through the holes in her dress. The glimpses of curves at her bust, thighs, and waist and hips made Shi Yan’s blood surge, his gaze turning fiery, and he chuckled repeatedly.

“Go to hell!” A ghostly cold flame, chilling as frost, suddenly escaped her exquisite, dewy lips, imbued with her life essence, and instantly landed on Shi Yan’s chest. The unique icy aura of the Extreme Cold Heavenly Fire poured down like a basin of ice water, instantly extinguishing the fiery enthusiasm that had just ignited in Shi Yan, causing even the hairs on his head to turn into sharp, icy barbs.

“Serves you right!” Audrey said coldly, a hint of amusement flickering in her bright eyes, finding Shi Yan’s disheveled state highly entertaining. She moved gracefully, enveloped in swirling shades of ghostly residue, obscuring the marvelous sight of her body from Shi Yan.

She spun three times in place, the spectral wisps around her dissipating, and reappeared, having swapped into a dark blue gown. With a slight twitch of her brow, suppressing a smile, she said coldly, “Has your lust cooled down?” “Not at all.” Shi Yan’s expression remained unchanged.

As his consciousness shifted, the ice enveloping him vanished in an instant, and the cluster of chilling fire instantly flew back, swallowed into Audrey’s mouth. That was her Origin Heavenly Fire.

“Boom!” Suddenly, the Moonstone beneath them surged in speed, becoming uncontrollable, rushing toward the dark region at an extreme velocity. Just like the tens of thousands of other stone fragments around them.

Audrey’s heart leaped in alarm, leaving no time to bicker with Shi Yan. She cried out, “Those meteorites seem pulled by some kind of gravity; our current position is also being affected, being drawn toward that area!” “Don’t be stubborn; condense a barrier shield with your divine power to wrap your divine body layer by layer,” Shi Yan said solemnly.

He suddenly sat down cross-legged on the Moonstone. “Come next to me, as close as possible.

The shockwaves from the meteor explosions here are enough to smash bodies to pieces; you must be extremely careful.” As soon as the words left his mouth, a mere ten thousand meters away, two meteorites collided, unleashing a monstrous surge of energy, like the impact of nuclear bombs. The resulting shockwave seemed to distort space, triggering a chain reaction that pulverized several nearby meteorites.

The aftermath continued relentlessly, surging toward their location. Audrey had been about to retort, intending to argue back with a stern face, but then she sensed the approaching shockwave.

Her beautiful face instantly turned cold, and she shot toward Shi Yan like lightning, sitting down right beside him. Layer upon layer of mysterious green shields quietly materialized as her divine power shifted.

As a princess of the Underworld Emperor Clan, she was highly proficient in their unique Soul Profound Mysteries, granting her exceptionally keen perception and precise understanding of energy potency. She knew that the approaching residual wave was potent enough to damage her divine body!

Thus, she acted decisively and without hesitation, wisely choosing to move close to Shi Yan to seek protection. “Star Gaze Armor!” Shi Yan commanded softly.

Ten streams of starlight flowed from his fingertips, wrapping around nearby meteorites like ropes. These streams formed a wall of rock around them, acting as a shield against the explosion’s aftermath.

The wall of rock shuddered violently a few times before slowly settling. As Shi Yan retracted his power, the meteorites separated again, continuing their flow forward.

Audrey looked surprised and suddenly announced, “Inside one of the meteorites ahead, there is a faint trace of soul aura—not a living being, but rather a fragment of a… a Divine Weapon.” She stared intently at a specific meteorite ahead. The meteorite was as large as a small life-bearing star, irregularly octagonal, and entirely dark brown.

At a glance, it resembled a giant platter. Faint traces of small vegetation were visible on its surface, making it distinctly unusual compared to the bare surfaces of the surrounding rocks.

“Let’s go take a look.” Shi Yan focused his gaze and was also surprised. He then urged the Moonstone beneath him, doubling its speed of being drawn in, instantly surpassing many surrounding meteorites as they rushed toward the unique one that Audrey had sensed something odd about.

A quarter of an hour later. “Boom!” The Moonstone landed upon the dark brown meteorite.

Shi Yan moved in a flash, landing on the dark brown surface. With a thought, his consciousness permeated every minute crevice of the meteorite, boundless and all-encompassing.

After a moment, his expression paused, then suddenly lit up with a strange light. Audrey suddenly appeared beside him, her brow twitching.

She walked directly in one direction. “The area I sensed is this way…” Shi Yan said nothing, following thoughtfully like a shadow trailing behind her.

The surface of the dark brown meteorite was indeed covered in strange grass. These blades were half a meter long, hard and sharp like saw teeth, and possessed tenacious vitality.

The eerie green grass covered every corner of the meteorite, resembling a dense green carpet at first glance. They swayed gently as the meteorite rushed onward, like waving arms, lending an air of subtle strangeness.

Soon, Audrey’s beautiful legs stilled. She bent down, looking at a dark stone opening on the surface—a hole just large enough for one person to enter, dimly lit within, emitting only a piercing whistling sound of the wind.

“That faint soul aura is inside the stone cave; I’ll go check,” Audrey turned back, seeking his opinion. “Wait.” Shi Yan frowned, stating gravely, “Something isn’t right.

For some reason, ever since I landed here, I’ve felt a chilling sensation. I just covered the entire meteorite with my divine sense and found this single fissure, a stone cave, capable of holding only one person.” “What are you implying?” Audrey asked, confused.

“Calm down and probe this area with your soul. Do you feel a pervasive sense of soul threads?” Shi Yan asked quietly.

“Pervasive soul threads?” Audrey was astonished. She peered intently and vaguely felt that something was indeed amiss, yet couldn't quite articulate it.

“The grass! The green grass here!” Shi Yan’s expression shifted, and he suddenly called out, “No matter how tenacious, grass rarely survives in this environment!

That ubiquitous green grass is exactly those soul threads! They are faint pulses of soul energy, and the weak soul fluctuation you sensed earlier likely came only from the grass!” “That’s not right; the soul fluctuation is coming from inside this cave,” Audrey shook her head.

“That fluctuation only reappeared after we landed here. Perhaps that soul aura is bait designed to lure us into the stone cave,” Shi Yan suspected.

“No way?” Audrey was dumbfounded, thinking Shi Yan was overthinking things, believing that in the desolate Void Sea, nothing would possibly set a trap to harm them. “We can try it first,” Shi Yan said cautiously.
