Chapter 625 The Assistance of the Blade Soul.
Three meters—such a short distance, a distance that normally seems like a few easy strides. But in this spatial passage, for Xuan Mo, it was like an insurmountable chasm!
What to do next? Charge straight through?
Xuan Mo didn't even dare to consider that.
The spatial rifts in the last three meters were not only incredibly powerful, but also densely packed. If he charged straight through, he probably wouldn't even know how he was riddled with holes and reduced to ashes, or how he was obliterated by space itself.
But now, he only had so little soul power left.
To be honest, Xuan Mo had no idea whether he could even get through the last three meters of the spatial passage. What was even more dangerous was that the last three meters of spatial rifts were acting strangely, giving Xuan Mo no time to catch his breath and recover.
They unleashed an unprecedented attack!
However, what happened next…
Xuan Mo was first startled, then puzzled.
Instead of attacking him, the spatial rifts shot out beams of divine power, crisscrossing and filling the last three meters of the spatial passage, forming a net of light that even an insect couldn't pass through!
Xuan Mo had no choice but to quickly recover his soul power.
With enough soul power, those dense beams of divine power would be no problem; with the Dragon-Slaying Blade in hand, he could easily deal with them with a few consecutive strikes.
But before his joy could even fully develop, Xuan Mo witnessed a chilling scene: the spatial gate at the very front, representing the exit, had begun to slowly close.
And then, the voice of the Space Dragon King rang out, but his warning felt ruthless to Xuan Mo.
"Boy, you must hurry. You only have three minutes left to pass through the spatial passage!"
Just moments ago, outside,
"Damn it. Mo boy, we need to hurry!"
Sensing the changes within the spatial passage, the Space Dragon King's expression immediately turned serious.
This also drew the attention of the other Dragon Kings and Mu Lin.
"Old Kong, what's wrong?"
"The primordial divine power I left in that spatial passage is almost gone. It will likely dissipate completely in the last three minutes. And once it's all gone, the spatial passage will collapse. In other words, if Mo boy doesn't pass through within three minutes, what awaits him is..."
The Space Dragon King didn't finish his sentence, but everyone present understood his meaning.
So, amidst everyone's anxiety, without stopping the test, the Space Dragon King used telepathy to remind Xuan Mo.
Thus, the current scene unfolded.
Three minutes? Three minutes isn't enough!?
At this moment, Xuan Mo couldn't help but panic.
"Calm down! I must calm down!"
Xuan Mo forced himself to remain calm. He closed his eyes, racing against time to recover his soul power, and considered how to deal with the situation.
As time ticked by...
Two minutes and thirty seconds later, he opened his eyes and began to act.
He charged straight out, and just as he was about to crash into the light net, his sixth soul ring flashed twice, unleashing two sixth soul skills simultaneously: the Gluttonous Divine Thunder Tribulation and the Vajra Indestructible Body!
"Sizzle—"
The effects of the two 100,000-year soul skills were different. The Gluttonous Divine Thunder Tribulation forcefully blasted away the nearest beams of light on the net.
Although the severed divine power beams instantly recovered, in that brief moment of recovery, Xuan Mo, through the Vajra Indestructible Body, withstood the reduced damage and advanced one meter.
Now, only two meters from the finish line!
Then, Xuan Mo intended to use his soul power to burst forth and, with the aid of his Martial Soul True Body state, directly cross those two meters!
Without a moment's hesitation, the Martial Soul True Body was activated!
In his Gluttonous True Body state, Xuan Mo leaped forward!
Seeing Xuan Mo finally pass the extremely difficult test set by the Space Dragon King, Mu Lin and the other Dragon Kings, including the Space Dragon King himself, who were watching from the outside, all breathed a sigh of relief.
However, an unexpected event occurred.
Xuan Mo appeared half a meter away from the end of the spatial passage, at the spatial gate! He hadn't completely passed through the passage!
In other words, Xuan Mo, despite using all his strength, only jumped one and a half meters, instead of the expected two meters!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Even Xuan Mo was stunned at this moment. He never expected that in his Martial Soul True Body state, his calculation of the distance for his leap would be so drastic! And at this most crucial and critical moment!
But in the next second, he realized.
The spatial suppression intensity of this spatial passage was not constant. Rather, like the attack power and suction force of the spatial rift, it increased progressively. When he was six meters away from the end, he could probably leap two meters. But when he was only two meters away from the end, he couldn't leap two meters. Instead, he could only jump one and a half meters!
But by then, he realized it was too late.
He was already trapped in the net of light, surrounded by beams of divine power! The net of divine power was now flashing with a dazzling brilliance that rivaled the heavens and earth! The beams of divine power were exerting an extremely strong spatial pull on him!
At this moment, without the protection of the shield, Xuan Mo was like an insect caught in a spider's web. No matter how desperately he struggled, he was powerless and could not escape the web's bindings.
To make matters worse, only fifteen seconds remained until the three-minute time limit!
Instinctively, Xuan Mo swung his Dragon-Slaying Blade, trying to use his remaining soul power to activate the blade's light and break through the net of light surrounding him.
However, his actions were completely useless. The intense spatial pull of the divine power beams instantly destroyed his not-so-powerful blade strike with spatial power and pulled Xuan Mo into the spatial rift.
"Not good!"
Although he knew what would happen if he were pulled into the spatial rift, Xuan Mo was helpless at this point.
However, just as the Space Dragon King outside was preparing to intervene and rescue Xuan Mo, who was about to be sucked into the spatial rift, another unexpected event occurred.
No, to be precise, it was a pleasant surprise!
A surprise that surprised the five Dragon Kings and Mu Lin!
"Boy, you're really in a sorry state."
At this moment, a voice rang out from the Dragon-Slaying Blade, which, while shining with golden light, emitted an unprecedentedly clear and bright "clang," and its blade also burst forth with an incomparably dazzling light!
"Why don't you hurry up and use me to break through!"
Reminded by the Dragon-Slaying Blade's spirit, Xuan Mo immediately poured all his soul power into it, and a blade of light quickly and fiercely slashed out around him.
The next second, the divine power beams that were still blocking Xuan Mo's body also broke instantly.
Xuan Mo also managed to break free at this moment.
