Time went by swiftly.
Su Mo flew continually in the Universal Sea and he had forgotten about time.
Fortunately, he had the Vastness Purple Qi to support him. Occasionally, he would come across the Ultimate Sword Honorable’s blood to help him find the way and that helped him to remain on track.
The Ultimate Sword Honorable had a physical body and as he was severely injured, he had left traces of blood behind which acted as a guide to Su Mo.
The blood had hardened to form Blood Crystals and they were floating in the void.
After flying for almost 100 years, Su Mo faced a great problem.
As he was following the route that contained the Ultimate Sword Honorable’s Blood Crystal, he realized that there was a great disparity from the route that the Vastness Purple Qi was directing him to.
He was in a predicament. He was troubled about whether he should continue to follow the Ultimate Sword Honorable or the direction from the Vastness Purple Qi.
After pondering for a while, Su Mo decided to follow the Ultimate Sword Honorable as he felt more assured.
The Ultimate Sword Honorable and the two masters were following behind Young Master Liu Yun. Since Young Master Liu Yun was being pursued, he would definitely return to Cloud Ridge World where he would be under protection.
Young Master Liu Yun could get rid of the three masters and, in return, attack them provided he returned to Cloud Ridge World.
Thus, Su Mo made up his mind to follow the Ultimate Sword Honorable and the two masters. Even if he had made the wrong move, he could change his direction and take the route where the Vastness Purple Qi would lead him.
“The four of them have not stopped fighting!”
Su Mo sighed and muttered to himself as he continued with his journey. If the masters were not having a fight, the Ultimate Sword Honorable would not be bleeding perpetually.
The Universal Sea was indeed vast and there seemed to be no end to it. Su Mo had no idea how far he had flown over the hundred years.
No wonder!
No wonder the masters in the Cosmic World are unable to leave the Cosmic World after working hard on it for so many years. Even with the help of Spatiotemporal City, they are unable to do so.
Without a specific direction, one is unable to get out of the Cosmic World even if they are in the Universal Sea for millennia.
In the twinkling of an eye, Su Mo had flown for more than 20 years.
“Am I heading in the right direction?”
Su Mo muttered to himself as he was flying. He crushed a few Dawn Stones to replenish his Power Source, and he had been doing so.
He was feeling depressed as he no longer saw the Ultimate Sword Honorable’s blood and he could not sense the aura of any of them. As he was lagging too far behind, the aura had long dissipated.
There was no direction in the Universal Sea, and thus Su Mo had no idea if he was going in the direction of the Ultimate Sword Honorable and the masters.
After all, after flying for a long period of time, a slight shift in direction could make a great difference.
I should be on the right track! Su Mo said to himself. He had been going in the same direction and thus he should not have gone too far away from the masters. He was worried that Young Master Liu Yun and the masters had changed their direction.
If I am on the right track, I should be getting close to Cloud Ridge World! Su Mo reckoned. Although the masters could not get out of the Cosmic World after working hard on it for millennia, it did not mean that they had to fly for the same period of time.
Some masters might have left the Cosmic World and not returned, so the people in the Cosmic World were not aware of the situation.
Su Mo believed that if Young Master Liu Yun could make his way to the Cosmic World, he would not have spent too much time on it even with the help of Spatiotemporal City.
Su Mo observed that Young Master Liu Yun should be less than 1,000 years old.
As long as Su Mo continued to follow the route that Young Master Liu Yun had taken, he should be able to reach Cloud Ridge World in a few hundred years. Young Master Liu Yun must have known the exact location of Cloud Ridge World or he would not have spent his time having fun in the Cosmic World.
Su Mo’s only concern was the lack of resources to support him for the rest of his journey.
As Su Mo was flying and pondering in the tranquil Universal Sea, he flew more than 120 years unknowingly.
“This is…?”
Suddenly, Su Mo’s gaze froze. He saw a heap of crushed bones and pieces of flesh in front of him.
Whoosh!
In a flash, Su Mo came to the heap of bones. His face turned grave when he realized that it was the body of the Ultimate Sword Honorable that had been crushed.
His head was smashed into pieces and the remains of his flesh showed that he had been destroyed.
Moreover, the remains had been left behind for more than 30 years and they had fossilized.
“Has the Ultimate Sword Honorable passed on?” Su Mo lowered his eyes and felt disturbed. The Ultimate Sword Honorable is a master in the Cosmic World. Has such an outstanding man passed on?
However, there was a possibility that his body had been destroyed but not his Primordial Spirit.
Whoosh!
Su Mo waved his arm and put the remains of the Ultimate Sword Honorable into one of his Spacial Devices and continued with his journey.
For masters like the Ultimate Sword Honorable, his body could not be left in the Universal Sea. Su Mo decided to bring it along with him and bury him in the Cosmic World when he returned. It should not be left in a foreign place.
The remains of the Ultimate Sword Honorable had given Su Mo the assurance that he was moving in the right direction and was only slightly off track.
Days and years passed. The dull journey could take away the sanity of a person. Another 20 years passed and Su Mo felt that there were some changes in the Universal Sea.
The void became firmer and that slowed him down.
Am I about to reach Cloud Ridge World? Su Mo was excited. Since the void had become firmer, the surrounding space would become more concrete. He could be approaching Cloud Ridge World!
At that thought, Su Mo hastened his speed and moved on.
As he flew on, the void became firmer.
After flying for another five years, the void became firmer by manifolds compared to five years ago. Su Mo experienced twofold greater resistance in his speed.
That proved that he was approaching a world and it was probably Cloud Ridge World.
Su Mo’s heart was burning with excitement. He pressed on and could not wait to get there.
Year after year passed, and there was no night or day. There were no four seasons as well as Su Mo flew on like a robot.
Soon, more than 10 years passed and the void became several hundred-fold sturdier than the Cosmic World. It was similar to that of the Deity Plane.
The resistance in the void had slowed down Su Mo’s speed by several hundred-fold.
“Soon! Soon!” Su Mo muttered to himself. He felt that he would be arriving in a new world soon.
As expected, after flying for several years, the firmness in the void surpassed that of the Deity Plane and there was a misty layer ahead blocking Su Mo’s path.
“This is… Space Boundary!”
Su Mo was elated when he saw it. He was familiar with such Space Boundaries. As long as he could break through the Space Boundary, he would be able to leave the void and enter another plane.
“Is that Cloud Ridge World?”
Su Mo muttered as he came to a halt and looked at the Space Boundary that was far away. After being on the journey for more than 170 years, he was finally approaching Cloud Ridge World!
Although 170 years seemed a long period of time, it seemed short to Su Mo.
Whoosh!
The Power Source in Su Mo’s body surged and he dashed toward the Space Boundary like an arrow.
A while later.
Crack!
There were cracking sounds when the Space Boundary had been forced through. A huge crack appeared and Su Mo finally got himself out of the vast Universal Sea. He was out of the deep void and had entered another plane.
After the Space Boundary closed up, the deep void went back to its original state.
After some time, a lady in a green dress flew rapidly toward the same direction.
“Is this… another world?” Ling Chang muttered to herself as she looked at the Space Boundary. A smile broke out on her flawless face and she looked charming.
“This is a pleasant surprise!”
Ling Chang came to a halt and her cheeks turned rosy on her worn-out face. She had never expected herself to be able to accomplish what many other masters in the Cosmic World had failed to do.
She was able to accomplish it because of Su Mo.
She had entered the Universal Sea to stop Su Mo, not with the intention to search for another world.
As her cultivation level was lower than Su Mo’s, she could not catch up with him. Soon, she lost her way in the Universal Sea.
As she could not return to the Cosmic World, she had no choice but to move on by following the aura that Su Mo had left behind.
Fortunately, she did not have to search for the direction as she could follow Su Mo’s aura to move on as her speed was only slightly slower than Su Mo’s.
Although she would lose Su Mo’s aura occasionally, she would find some powdery Dawn Stones in the void. Those were left behind by Su Mo when he was replenishing his Power Source.
Thus, this had brought Ling Chang to the area.
In a flash, Ling Chang forced her way through the Space Boundary and entered another plane.
