Chapter 99 The True Successor Leaves the Labyrinth

Why would there be a cosmic-level martial artist here, and why would he rush over with killing intent the moment he saw Ye Yang?

It's not hard to guess that this person might be the second inheritor to clear the level, or the first inheritor who killed the second inheritor!

The Blood Crystal could very well be on him.

However, Ye Yang had absolutely no intention of killing and stealing the treasure, because even if he burned his soul, he could at most kill a first-level universe-level martial artist by himself, while the enemy before him...

"Run! He's a third-tier cosmic-level being!"

Babata roared in his mind.

Ye Yang stepped onto the curved blade disc and flew in the opposite direction at full speed.

Unfortunately, the Arc Blade Disc is better suited for attack and doesn't significantly boost flight speed. Even with Ye Yang's 648x psychic power amplification, it's only comparable to a normal first-order cosmic-level flight speed.

"We'll be caught up sooner or later, so we'll have to use that thing."

With a wave of his hand, Ye Yang released a colorful, butterfly-shaped spaceship with a diameter of about 100 meters from his spatial ring—the Black Dragon Mountain X81 spaceship, which had been repainted and modified!

This was just a small spaceship; the spatial ring Babata gave Ye Yang was much larger, and it could easily fit inside. After buying Emerald Rock Star, Ye Yang rarely used this spaceship.

Now it has come in handy.

They quickly flew into the spaceship, which had already begun to accelerate.

"That guy's top speed is definitely not as fast as ours, as long as we don't let him get close when he accelerates." Babata's attached intelligent projection appeared inside the spaceship, and at the same time, the ship's onboard weapons began to charge.

……

Three kilometers away, a wiry man with dark skin and a full beard was accelerating at full speed. For him, crossing a kilometer was just a matter of six or seven steps.

The man stared at the small dot in front of him that was using a telekinetic weapon to escape, his eyes cold and filled with murderous intent.

"Everything is mine! No one can take it away!" he roared, quickly closing the distance by another kilometer.

However, the next second...

brush!

A colorful spaceship with a diameter of 100 meters suddenly appeared and immediately began to accelerate.

"Stop right there! Damn it, how could someone bring a Class C spaceship to this world for assessment?"

The dark-skinned, lean man stared intently at the ever-accelerating spaceship. He chased after it reluctantly for a while, but after being hit by several shots from the spaceship's weapons and finding that the distance between them was actually increasing, he could only angrily give up the pursuit.

……

Inside the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship...

"Phew~ This spaceship saved my life again." Ye Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

Although dying in the dungeon wouldn't affect him in the Immortal Alliance world, he still cherished his life.

It's like playing a video game; you can lose, but you can't give up halfway through!

While death can indeed accelerate the progress of honing one's true intentions... if one deliberately seeks death, the effect will be extremely poor, and dying too many times will cause one to become numb prematurely, and may even prevent one from ever reaching 100% progress.

"It's a pity that the ship's weapons are not enough to deal with a third-tier cosmic-level martial artist, otherwise we could have killed him. Perhaps he still has the treasures he got from the Anxing Realm Lord that he hasn't used yet," Babata said with some regret.

"Babata, now start looking for a way to re-enter the labyrinth, or directly reach the passage beneath the sky. We're preparing to go back." Ye Yang looked in the direction they had fled.

He knew that fusing the Blood Crystal was extremely difficult. First, there was intense pain and the baleful aura impacting his will; second, his body needed to be compatible.

The longer the body is transformed by the evil energy of the Blood Luo World, the more suitable it is to fuse with the Blood Luo Crystal.

Furthermore, when the inheritor was attacked by the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship, the blood-red secret patterns unique to the Blood Luo Power did not appear on his body.

Therefore, it is highly likely that they have not yet merged.

"I will definitely come back again after I reach the ninth level of the Eternal Star."

Regardless of whether the other party possessed Blood Crystal, Ye Yang had already added them to his kill list. He would show no mercy to those who wanted to kill him.

……

The Black Dragon Mountain spaceship flew continuously above the sky, because Ye Yang guessed that the passage back to the maze might be like the one below the sky, with nine passages in total, including the one in the center and eight in the other.

Therefore, the Heilongshan spacecraft is flying along the side boundary of the world.

"The 'Secret Techniques of Romance' has been recorded! Although the guidance effect is not as good as the environment here, cultivation is still possible," Babata reported.

Several minutes later...

Ye Yang found the crack in the northwest direction. After confirming that no one was around, he immediately put away the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship and went inside.

Entering the maze again, this place is at a very high level and is very dangerous, with no other adventurers in sight.

But Ye Yang was surprised to find that... a channel of about 1 kilometer would always form in front of him as he flew.

"Could it be that this celestial labyrinth has already recorded my presence? Does it automatically make way for me whenever I appear within it?"

With his mind making guesses, Ye Yang flew towards the location where he had previously encountered the trial passage, based on the records on his smart wristband.

His two attendants are still there; we should try to save them if we can.

"It's probably around here. Hmm, I see it."

As the wind barrier in front of him gradually dissipated and opened up, Ye Yang saw the figures of the two people.

They have been trapped here for over a year.

"Owner!"

"Owner."

The two discovered that the wind barrier behind them had suddenly disappeared. When they turned around and saw Ye Yang, they were very excited and immediately flew over.

"Alright, alright, I'm here to take you back," Ye Yang said with a smile.

The two attendants were immediately overwhelmed with emotion.

The three set off again, this time on their way home.

Ye Yang also discovered that the rules governing the changes within this maze were extremely favorable to 'inheritors' like him:

If he were alone in the maze, he would move through without any obstacles, as the maze would automatically make way for him.

Reaching the heavens is also effortless.

However, if there are other people around him, the maze will return to its normal rules.

Under normal circumstances, unless one enters the Inheritance Trial, it is absolutely impossible to reach the heavens.

If someone is chasing him from behind... once the distance between the two exceeds 100 meters, a wind barrier will rise in the middle, forming a dead end and preventing the pursuer from continuing to move forward.

The Celestial Labyrinth is entirely the domain of the inheritors!

However, this is meaningless to Ye Yang; next time he comes, it will be to kill someone.

As for whether the inheritor will escape... that's probably not the case. The sky above is the safest place for cultivation, unless a realm lord forcibly breaks through the maze and flies up there.

Ye Yang is only at the second level of the Hengxing realm, so there's no way he could pose a threat to the other party.

With these thoughts in mind, Ye Yang and his companions flew rapidly towards the lower exit of the maze.

After becoming an inheritor, Ye Yang felt that the chances of encountering dead ends in the maze had greatly decreased, so his journey was very smooth.

"The western exit is just ahead. Absorb some of the gem's energy to disguise your life force," Ye Yang reminded them.

The three raised their alloy armor masks and continued flying downwards. They encountered another robbery along the way, which they easily dealt with.

Finally... we returned to the western exit.

"To leave the maze, each person must pay a wisp of Heavenly Wind... I have quite a bit here."

Ye Yang distributed all the Heavenly Winds in his hands.

This thing will dissipate within a month or two once it leaves the Qingfeng World, so it's not very useful and worthless.

And he also grabbed a whole bunch from the sky, there were so many.

Arriving at the western entrance—this entrance is controlled by two of the ten major organizations, 'White Sand Star' and 'East Weng Pavilion'.
