Chapter 1057: Chapter 1055: Is It Something You Can Do? (4 more)

"It’s planted."

At the start of Su Chen and Yang Qi’s fierce battle, Hongying did not flee. She wanted to see Su Chen die right before her eyes.

Unfortunately, as the battle progressed, Yang Qi was completely suppressed by Su Chen. He had no ability to strike back, growing increasingly pathetic to the point where it seemed death was a possibility.

Hongying was genuinely frightened.

She no longer had the courage to keep watching and chose to flee outright.

When she fled, Su Chen did not stop her.

There were two reasons.

First, he was locked in a fierce battle with Yang Qi, unable to afford any distraction. Even the slightest loss of focus could decide the outcome of the fight.

Second, and most importantly, Hongying’s escape would inevitably lead her back to the Di Family, where Jiuyou would plant a Soul Imprint on her. This would expose both her and the Di Family’s location. In the future, when seeking revenge, Su Chen would know where the Di Family resided. Moreover, Su Chen was deeply, intensely interested in the Mother River of the Di Family. Therefore, keeping Hongying alive was more useful than killing her—she would serve as the guide. Besides, there would be plenty of opportunities to kill Hongying later.

"Then I’ll rest easy and take a nap now. I just hope I’ll wake up again later." Su Chen’s voice grew increasingly soft. Truth be told, although he had experienced self-destruction once before and returned to life as Undying and Indestructible, he couldn’t guarantee it would succeed every time.

"Young boy Su, you... sigh..." Jiuyou didn’t know what to say. She let out a resigned sigh.

At this moment, Su Chen.

Was already teetering on the edge between true death and false death.

His skeletal figure, cloaked in bare flesh, drifted silently in the Endless Void, like a lifeless Void Boulder.

Time passed, one second at a time.

Su Chen was akin to a grain of sand in the vast ocean, adrift with the chaotic currents of the Void.

One shichen.

Two shichen.

Three shichen.

Time rushed forward.

After three shichen.

Suddenly.

Jiuyou’s mind erupted as though going mad!!!

"This... this... how is this possible? A Void Realm Beast?" Jiuyou’s voice trembled, filled with ultimate terror and shock.

At this moment.

Before Su Chen’s skeletal figure, wrapped in flesh, stood a towering gray-black beast larger than a Divine Mountain.

How massive was it?

Its height exceeded several thousand zhang!

This was a Void Realm Beast.

The Void was treacherous, filled with countless unknowns.

The most common danger in the Void was Void Behemoths.

However, there existed a creature a hundred thousand times more dangerous—the Void Realm Beast.

Void Realm Beasts were mutated monsters among Void Behemoths. Their size was dozens or even hundreds of times larger than regular Void Behemoths.

How powerful were Void Realm Beasts? With one bite, they could swallow an entire Plane—not a Low Martial Plane like Earth but an Advanced Martial Plane like the Divine Martial Continent.

Just one bite.

When they opened their mouths, the space engulfed was countless times larger than their own physical body.

Overall, Void Realm Beasts stood atop the food chain in the Void.

Of course, Void Realm Beasts were unimaginably rare.

Rare to the point where many Martial Cultivators believed them to be mere myth, rather than reality.

"Young boy Su, this time, it’s over." Faced with the Void Realm Beast, Jiuyou suddenly became calm. She knew it didn’t matter if Su Chen was already teetering between life and death, or even had been in peak condition—there was absolutely no chance of survival against a Void Realm Beast.

One hundred million percent.

No chance.

Thus, Jiuyou resigned herself to peace.

Perhaps, this was fate.

"Young boy Su, no matter what, I don’t regret meeting you." Jiuyou murmured softly, already bracing herself for the impending loss of consciousness, for death itself.

Void Realm Beasts could not only devour physical bodies but souls as well. As a Soul Body, Jiuyou was just as vulnerable.

Moreover, even if she somehow could escape, it would be impossible to abandon Su Chen at such a dire moment. She believed that Su Chen, even in the face of mortal disaster, would never abandon her either.

Jiuyou slowly closed her eyes.

Her mind flashed with countless memories of her journey with Su Chen, like a replaying movie.

There was laughter, danger, fury, thrills... moments of joy, anger, sorrow, and fear—the full spectrum of emotions.

The next moment.

The Void Realm Beast’s enormous eyes fixed on Su Chen.

How enormous were its eyes? Their diameter spanned hundreds of meters.

Even so, when viewed in comparison to its entire form, they resembled small eyes, a testament to just how colossal its body truly was.

Why had the Void Realm Beast appeared? To devour Su Chen? No, it came for the Divine Mansion within Su Chen’s body. Of course, devouring the Divine Mansion meant devouring Su Chen—it made no difference.

Whoosh...

The Void Realm Beast began to open its maw.

As it did, Su Chen and everything within several hundred kilometers of the chaotic Void—including turbulent currents, Void Boulders, and countless other phenomena—froze still, immobilized.

And yet, in that precise moment.

Without any warning.

Before Su Chen.

A woman materialized.

A breathtakingly beautiful woman, whose beauty was spellbinding, yet her expression held warm, maternal grace.

The woman’s entire being radiated a faint, warm green Divine Light.

Her form emitted no discernible aura, as if she were a mere ordinary person.

Strangely, though she stood amidst the Void, the atmosphere seemed utterly severed from her, completely untouched.

More unsettling still.

After the woman appeared, the Void Realm Beast—which had already opened its gargantuan maw—abruptly closed its mouth.

Moreover, it even retreated.

Its colossal eyes now bore an expression of reverence and fear.

"My son is not yours to devour. Out of ignorance, I shall spare you this time. Begone." The woman spoke softly, her voice resonant like a celestial melody. Her words were not loud but seemed to saturate the entire Void.

As her words fell, she casually raised her hand and waved.

The Void Realm Beast... it... it was sent hurtling backward!!!

Can you imagine the sight of a monstrous entity thousands of zhang high being sent flying? It was unimaginably terrifying.

What’s more, its retreat was at light-speed.

"Your name is Jiuyou, isn’t it? You are decent. Stay by his side and assist him; in the future, you’ll have the opportunity to fulfill your heart’s desire." Then, the stunning woman turned toward Su Chen—or rather, through the Divine Mansion, toward Jiuyou. Her beautiful gaze grew even gentler, and she spoke softly: "Do not inform him of my appearance for now."

"Se... Se... Senior, are you Su... Su Chen’s mother?" Jiuyou was already stunned, nearly speechless. The fact that she could still articulate words was a testament to her strong State of Mind. "Senior, aren’t you going to help Su Chen? He’s drifting in the Void, and... we don’t know when he’ll awaken, if he’ll awaken at all. Will he encounter danger?"

"Do not fret. This is his tribulation, and also his opportunity. That bloodline, which should not exist in the world, is not so easily possessed. The amount gained, perhaps may not equate to the amount lost, but certainly will correspond to the trials endured. Wandering the Void brings danger, yes, but not fatal peril." With these words, the woman vanished—vanished as though she were nothing but an illusion.
