Dark Blood Age

Translator: Doggotranslation

The blue bubble was not very far away, at least it looked like that, but it was extremely difficult to really get close to it.

The further they traveled toward that direction, the more and fluctuated the Yuan Qi energy in each energy fluctuation layer was, the greater the difference between the layers were, and the feeling of their bodies being torn apart became even more acute as if they were trying to squeeze through the crack on a solid wall, it felt extremely uncomfortable.

After passing through dozens of layers in a row, Chu Yunsheng finally understood where the fat man’s white paper theory came from.

Whenever they crossed an energy fluctuation layer, the feeling of the body being torn was already very strange, but the things they saw were even more shocking. Just now, when they just forcibly passed an energy fluctuation layer, they immediately saw a floating monster appearing almost out of thin air at a distance of less than one meter in front of the five of them. They could even clearly see the flagella swaying behind its back.

The floating monster was called Da Kong floating monster by those people, and it was said that the strength and attack power of this monster was extremely strong. It was ten times that of Duan Kong Floating monsters, and it was even crueler. As soon as Feng Yingxi saw the floating monster, he wanted to turn around and ran away. This kind of reaction was the instinct reflex under an extremely dangerous situation. There was no time for him to consider other things at all at the moment.

However, it was at this moment, the monster suddenly disappeared.

According to the fat man’s theory, the monster had jumped from one piece of “white paper” to another piece of “white paper”. The existence of the energy fluctuation layer was the strongest evidence of the constant collision of space fragments. It was like a large area of freshwater suddenly appeared in the sea, the salinity difference would appear at the junction of seawater and freshwater, and this junction was the energy fluctuation layer.

If they followed the direction of the Yuan Qi energy flow, probably they would never encounter the energy fluctuation layer. It was probably because of this reason that Feng Yingxi chose the route that was opposite the direction of the Yuan Qi energy flow and also the reason that they could move closer and closer to the huge blue bubble.

So, with Feng Yingxi’s route, Chu Yunsheng’s head gradually became clear, and a picture of a huge “vortex” slowly appeared in his mind.

The core of the “vortex” was that blue bubble. Around it was the circles of ring-shaped layers. There were many layers, and the layers were densely arranged outward, surrounding the blue bubble.

The internal energy distribution of each ring-shaped layer was different, and they were separated from each other by an energy fluctuation layer. At the same time, they were constantly changing their position at a fixed frequency. The blue bubble seemed to emit a kind of gravitational wave, which allowed them to adjust their positions based on the changes in energy.

At the same time, it was because of this gravitational wave that could penetrate all the energy fluctuation layers that they could see its existence at a short distance without being restricted by the energy fluctuation layer.

The theory and principle involved were too profound. With Chu Yunsheng’s current knowledge, there was no way he was able to figure out whether the constant change in energy intensity within the “rings” was caused by the gravitational waves of the blue bubble, or it was the gravitational waves that caused the changes in the energy intensity within the rings.

If Chu Yunsheng couldn’t understand it, there was no way Feng Yingxi, and others would be able to understand it either. It was already very good that they were able to find a way to approach that blue bubble.

“Shall we take a break?” Feng Yingxi suggested, breathing heavily.

The deeper they went, the more difficult it was. But the energy inside the single ring layer became more and more stable. Compared with the intense energy fluctuations in the energy fluctuation layer outside each single ring layer, it was much quieter here.

“Okay, let’s take a break here, but later on, if I say we need to go, we need to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, based on this rate, I don’t think we will be able to get to the blue bubble.” Chu Yunsheng also sat down, trying to recover.

There was no problem taking a short break, but they must cross the energy fluctuation layer before the next “position adjustment cycle”, otherwise their current position would be very likely to “jump” to another location along with the current ring layer. Once the energy inside the layer was active, the surge in energy waves would bound to cause the shift in positions again, and then the effort they had spent to get this far would be in vain, and then they would have to do it all over again from the outside

Feng Yingxi’s method was not the best way, it was laborious and relied on luck. It was like an ant that crawled against a strong wind, and after a few steps, it would be blown back to its starting point, then it would need to start all over again. If he was lucky and if he had enough strength, he might be able to get to the blue bubble, but it was too difficult. Because even if he had enough strength, luck played a very big part role here. No wonder he was hesitant when he asked him to come. If it was that easy, he would have volunteered to come here.

The energy fluctuation layer was the safest place. After Chu Yunsheng followed Feng Yingxi and took the wrong path a dozen times, he finally concluded that as long as they followed the position adjustment cycle and went into the energy fluctuation layer in time, the possibility that they would be pushed outward would be greatly reduced. In this way, they would be able to constantly move forward without any interruption.

Therefore, under this kind of environment, whether it was an awakener or an ordinary person, it would be very hard for them not to get lost.

Among the five people, except Chu Yunsheng’s special circumstance, the three of four people in Feng Yingxi’s group were awakeners. They were so tired at the moment that they lay on the ground like dead dogs. On the contrary, the train driver, who was an ordinary person, didn’t seem to be tired at all. He was almost as relaxed as Chu Yunsheng.

“Are you not tired?” Chu Yunsheng asked strangely.

The driver was in his thirties and was wearing a blue uniform. Probably he could not escape the city in time during the evaluation, so he was left behind. In this team, he basically had no right to complain, so when Chu Yunsheng asked him this question, he was startled, “ah?”

“I’m asking if you are tired? You have been following us so far, didn’t you feel that every time you passed through an area, your body would be torn apart?” Chu Yunsheng said in great detail.

The driver shook his head quickly: “I don’t know, maybe just a little tired from walking.”

The fat man raised his head from the ground and said, “Brother Chu, there is no need to ask him. People like him can’t feel it, so if they got in here, and if they had bad luck, or they haven’t received professional training, they would easily get lost. So many people died like this.”

After listening to what the fat man said, Chu Yunsheng finally understood something.

It turned out that because of the energy inside awakeners’ body, they would be able to find the route, but it was also because of the energy in the body, the difficulty of crossing the energy fluctuation layer became more and more difficult as they went deeper.

In terms of the ordinary people, because they had no Yuan Qi energy activity in their bodies, the resistance of crossing the energy fluctuation layer was not great. However, their positions would be constantly “changed” and then they would be exhausted with their physical energy. If they were lucky, their positions changed to the place near the city, then they would be able to walk out of this place, but if they were not lucky, they would be lost here forever.

“There seems to be something over there?” Pi Yan had good eyesight and he was very vigilant. He did not forget to constantly check out the area.

No Yuan Qi energy fluctuation, so it would not be floating monsters. But Chu Yunsheng still didn’t let his guard down. Soon, the figures slowly appeared in their sights.

“It seems like the people who got lost in here.” Feng Yingxi also got up from the ground and said vigilantly.

As the figures were approaching, and they could gradually see their appearances, then Pi Yan suddenly said in a surprised tone, “Brother Feng, it seems like Liu Si!”

Feng Yingxi’s eyes suddenly widened as if he had seen a ghost.

Seeing his strange expression, Chu Yunsheng immediately asked, “who is Liu Si?”

Feng Yingxi frowned and said: “he was the first person that we lost in here, I didn’t expect that he is still alive!”

“It’s okay if people don’t eat for a few days, but how can he survive without water here?” the fat man also said in disbelief. “It really is him!”

Perhaps they also heard the voice, and the two people slowly turned to Chu Yunsheng and walked toward them very slowly, as if they had lost their souls.

“It’s Liu Si, it’s him!” The fat man stood up happily and waved: “Liu Si? Liu Weifeng! Here, here!”

Chu Yunsheng was extremely alert and grabbed the fat man: “Don’t call him, it’s a bit strange, he didn’t recognize you at all!”

The man named Liu Weifeng stared blankly forward under the flashlight and walked over like a walking dead. At the same time, his lips were constantly moving as if he was muttering something.

“Let’s go!” Chu Yunsheng immediately ordered. It would be better to avoid the unknown than face it.

Pi Yan hesitantly said: “we just leave him here?”

He was asking Feng Yingxi, not Chu Yunsheng. It seemed like for him, Feng Yingxi was still their leader.

Feng Yingxi hesitated for a moment. At this time, Liu Si had reached nearly five or six meters, and his eyes were still dull, with no signs of recognizing them.

At this time, the sign of the position adjustment cycle appeared. Chu Yunsheng immediately pulled the rope and started to run toward the energy fluctuation layer without any explanation. When they just moved, Liu Si and another man who came toward them suddenly charged toward them while their eyes were emitting the empty deep cold light and their mouth shouting, “Give it back to me! Give it back to me!”

That voice, that expression, it was as if something that was the most important to them had been taken away from them.

Compared with the slow movement earlier, the speed of Liu Si and the other person was so quick as if they were on some kind of steroid. The five people in Chu Yunsheng’s group were connected by a rope, but even if Chu Yunsheng wanted to cross the energy fluctuation layer at the same time with them, it still wouldn’t be enough time, especially at the moment, Pi Yan, who was the person at the end of the rope, was already grabbed by Liusu tightly.

“Brother Si, it’s me!” Pi Yan panicked, if he hadn’t known this person, he would have already attacked him. “Liu Si! Wake up!”

“Give it back to me! Give it back!” Liu Si shook Pi Yan constantly. His originally empty eyes slowly became excited as if he had seen something precious. Only

“Shit!”

Chu Yunsheng’s heart sank, a familiar but inexplicable feeling suddenly rippled from Liu Si’s hollow eyes, making him immediately pull out the sword, “Pi Yan, watch out!”

As soon as he shouted, he hacked the sword down instantly.

“Ah!…” Liu Si screamed loudly. His head was cut off on the spot, and his black blood was spreading everywhere, but he didn’t die!

The body that lost its head even crawled up to the head that was still screaming on the ground, hugged it in his arms, and as if he was afraid that someone would take its head, it suddenly turned around and ran into the vast expanse of emptiness while holding his own head tightly.

The fat man, who was next to Pi Yan, couldn’t help but shudder, then he immediately pulled Pi Yan and hurriedly said, “let’s go!”

But he suddenly found that he couldn’t pull him away! Only then did he find that the empty eyes of the other person behind Liu Si earlier met with Pi Yan’s eyes. He didn’t know why but he felt like his dull and empty eyes seemed to have a strange and scary force, and it wanted to hook Pi Yan’s soul away.
