Chapter 781
The Land of Time-Space Disorder
Jiang Shu raised his hand and waved it, and the power within his body surged out continuously, pouring into the surrounding protective barrier.
The power he left behind set sail through this fleet.
He also sent a message to Elder Lei, arranging for them to come and guide him.
After giving his instructions, Jiang Shu left with Zhan Feng.
When Zhan Feng learned the unbelievable truth, he was speechless with astonishment.
"If there are such bizarre places in this world, can we use them to comprehend the laws of time?"
Zhan Feng spoke almost instinctively.
"Perhaps it should be possible..."
Jiang Shu nodded slightly.
The reason why the laws of time are difficult to comprehend is that they are omnipresent yet nowhere to be found, and only by touching space can one grasp the changes in time.
However, this place is different; the foundations of space and time are in disarray, which may symbolize that it can be used for enlightenment.
Both of them felt a stirring in their hearts.
Perhaps at this moment, by comprehending the laws of time, they could very well surpass those seniors who have been studying for thousands of years in the Venerable Realm.
"Go and give it a try."
Jiang Shu spoke, and then led Zhan Feng on their way.
In a short while, he led Zhan Feng back to the place they had seen before. When Zhan Feng saw the vast starry sky where time was chaotic and space was disordered, he was stunned.
After a long while, Zhan Feng came to his senses and gave a wry smile.
"If I were to attempt to traverse through it, I fear it would be extremely difficult."
Unlike Jiang Shu, who was able to manipulate time power to some extent, he could only sense it.
If he were to enter it, he might unknowingly be swept away by time.
"It doesn't matter, I'm here."
Jiang Shu spoke calmly, and the power of time surged from his body, vaguely forming a thin barrier within a radius of three zhang.
This was thanks to the battle at the Myriad Gods Cave, which gave Jiang Shu considerable experience in establishing a Daoist temple.
At this moment, the method he used was to simulate the Five Elements Barrier that Taiwu Daozun had used.
Zhan Feng's eyes lit up.
As the young leader of the War Alliance, although he had only just entered the Venerable Realm, his vision was naturally extremely broad, and he immediately saw the extraordinary nature of Jiang Shu's methods.
"Brother, you definitely have some special experiences."
Jiang Shu smiled but remained silent.
"With me here, time around us won't be easily manipulated. Let's go."
"okay."
The two stepped inside, and were quickly engulfed by the out-of-control tidal wave, disappearing without a trace.
……
In a place where time and space are in chaos, a colossal ship, rippling with countless halos of light, struggles against the surrounding erosion as it sails into the distance.
At this moment, behind that giant ship was a vast swarm of insects.
Each insect shimmered and radiated light, and countless halos converged into one, like a sea of light chasing after the giant ship.
Rumble!
In an instant, beams of energy burst forth, striking the giant ship's protective shield and causing it to tremble violently!
The turbulent currents in space grew increasingly intense, and the two sides were like two fish fighting in the middle of a whirlpool.
At this very moment, inside the giant ship, a figure exuding the aura of the laws of time, with its arms raised high, slowly fell, as if it were no longer able to support itself.
"I...I can't hold on much longer..."
It was a woman, young and pretty, but her face was extremely pale and she looked utterly weak.
The people watching over her looked grim and rushed forward to help the woman.
"Captain, please hold on a little longer, without your navigation..."
Upon hearing those words, the woman gave a bitter smile, "I have no strength left. Even with secret techniques and tonics, I can't hold on any longer."
Upon hearing this, everyone present fell silent.
Their encounter with the Zerg swarm in this warp has already greatly delayed their survival, and the captain, who is the navigator, is now unable to hold on any longer.
Just then, the ship's alarm suddenly sounded.
"Warning! Warning! We are being subjected to time slowdown, at a rate of 73 times!"
"Are we going to die here?"
Just as these people were filled with fear and could hardly control themselves, a rumbling sound rang out, and the giant ship beneath their feet began to tremble violently.
At this moment, on the screen in the command center, countless swarms of insects were displayed, having already climbed onto the ship and begun to relentlessly devour the protective shields.
"Warning! Warning! The defensive shield is being eroded; it is expected to fail in three minutes."
The piercing alarm sounded, and everyone could hardly contain their despair.
Meanwhile, some people on the ship were already preparing to pick up their weapons and engage in close combat.
"If I could hold on a little longer..."
The woman who was acting as the navigator struggled to her feet:
"Gentlemen, our defenses are about to break. Even if we are killed, it is better than being powerless to resist and being eaten as food."
Their entire ship was trembling helplessly, being devoured by countless swarms of insects; the protective shield would be completely destroyed in just one or two minutes.
Just as all the humans on the ship were preparing to face their deaths, suddenly, the extremely piercing alarm was lifted.
"The external protective shield is now in a stable state and is charging."
Is it in a stable state?!
Everyone inside the ship was stunned.
This is impossible!
With such a massive swarm of insects constantly devouring the ships, how could they possibly stop at the same time?
Just then, one of the ship's surveillance cameras was restored, and subsequently, many screens lit up.
"Look, something seems to have appeared nearby, and all the insects seem to be heading that way!"
Suddenly someone exclaimed.
The next moment, everyone on the ship turned their gazes to the various surveillance cameras, where countless swarms of insects were leaving the ship and surging towards a certain direction.
"what happened?"
The female captain was helped to the control panel by her subordinates, where she saw an immeasurable light suddenly burst forth, instantly crushing countless insect swarms into powder without any means of resistance.
It's not just one dish!
A dark aura suddenly erupted, and all the powerful figures on the ship witnessed a terrifying sight.
Amidst the countless swarms of insects, an immensely magnificent figure slowly rose to his feet, wielding a giant axe, and suddenly cleaved it down into the void before him. The tip of this giant axe, tinged with a dark hue, appeared as soon as it materialized, devouring and sucking up everything like a black hole, instantly crushing the countless insect swarms into nothingness.
And that figure was none other than a human!
The people on the ship stared in disbelief, as if they were witnessing a myth.
Just then, someone suddenly spoke up.
"Could it be that we accidentally encountered a human venerable one, and the swarm changed its target?"
Everyone was instinctively startled, and then they saw in the vast starry sky, a large number of insect swarms being destroyed into nothingness. The magnificent figure was invincible, swiftly slaughtering the massive insect swarms as if cutting through weeds.
Every minute and every second, hundreds and thousands of insects are killed, and now a large vacuum has been created in the entire insect swarm, but that magnificent figure has already killed millions of insects.
"This……"
Everyone on the ship was stunned, and for a moment, they could only stare blankly at the magnificent scene in the distance.
"I never expected to encounter a human venerable one here. I've been wanting to taste your flavor for a long time."
A wave of divine thought swept across the entire battlefield, unleashing an aura of Venerable level!
The people on the ship felt a chill run down their spines, realizing that it was the Zerg lord who commanded the swarm who had made the move.
Amidst the vast swarm of insects, countless halos of light converged and then coalesced onto a single figure.
The figure's aura was extremely magnificent, surging into the sky, heading straight for the imposing figure that had slain countless insect swarms.
This scene in this subspace resembled a duel between gods and demons.
The next instant, a terrifying attack erupted, but this attack did not cause any further fluctuations in space; instead, it plunged everything around into a deathly silence.
An unparalleled deathly silence spread, quickly engulfing countless lives.
At this critical moment, another wave of divine sense swept across the battlefield.
"A tiny insect at the early stage of the Venerable Realm..."
His tone was indifferent.
In an instant, countless insects and the many humans on the ship witnessed a magnificent fist shadow erupt, vast and boundless, directly piercing through the chaotic spacetime domain of this world and suddenly striking the figure that gathered the power of countless insects.
A magnificent aura suddenly burst forth, and the figure of the Zerg Venerable only froze for a moment before being shattered into pieces and completely destroyed into nothingness!
If a wise and powerful person were to witness this scene, they would be filled with extreme fear and horror.
A Venerable One, a Zerg Venerable One, was slain just like that!?
Everyone thought it was unbelievable, but that's exactly what happened.
A venerable one has fallen!
Right after that Zerg lord fell, large swarms of Zerg suddenly scattered, as if they had lost the consciousness of a group and completely dispersed.
"This this……"
Everyone stared in disbelief, and then a streak of light appeared as they approached their ship.
In the next instant, two figures appeared on the deck.
"Quickly, follow me to greet the Venerable One!"
The female captain, disregarding her exhaustion, suddenly led her numerous subordinates forward and quickly arrived on the deck.
"Greetings, Venerable One! Thank you for your help!"
"It's nothing, just a small matter."
A calm and gentle voice rang out, and the captain looked up to see that the young-looking venerable one was staring at her without blinking.
Those eyes were incredibly strange; they weren't filled with lust or any other emotion, but rather with an expression akin to "I've never seen anything like this before."
Could there be something wrong with me...? The female captain felt a little flustered, and then she heard a voice.
"They haven't even reached the Venerable Realm yet, but they've already comprehended the Law of Time. This world is truly bizarre and unpredictable."
The law of time?
Just then, one of the men raised his hand. "Get up, all of you. There's no need to be so formal. My name is Jiang Shu, and this is my fellow Daoist Zhan Feng. We were traveling through this void for him when we unexpectedly passed by here. Do you have any corresponding star maps?"
Upon hearing this, the female captain paused for a moment before quickly nodding, "Yes, we have star maps and are willing to offer them to Your Excellency."
Jiang Shu nodded slightly, finding the woman before him quite sensible. He then asked, "By the way, who are you? Why do you possess the aura of time even though you're not even a Venerable?"
"this?"
The woman paused for a moment, then said, "I am a navigator. A navigator must have a deep understanding of time and space, otherwise they will lose their way in the subspace and become lost within it."
"Oh?"
Jiang Shu's eyes immediately showed a hint of interest.
Since leaving the starry sky where Cangyu Star is located, Jiang Shu and Zhan Feng have been searching in this spacetime disorder, and now he seems to have finally found the human race who know the reason for this.
Jiang Shu waved his hand and asked, "What is a navigator?"
How could the senior not know this...?
The woman muttered to herself, then quickly said, "A navigator is someone who guides people through the subspace to prevent them from getting lost."
"I see……"
Jiang Shu narrowed his eyes slightly. "So, the subspace you're referring to is also this place where time is out of order."
"Yes."
Jiang Shu nodded slightly. "Where do you come from, and which faction do you belong to? The Human Federation?"
Upon hearing this, the woman and the people around her looked even more puzzled. She then said, "Senior, you don't know about these things? The human federation collapsed long ago after the first great calamity, and we have difficulty contacting other planets."
"We are not subordinate to the human federation, but have formed our own planetary empire and are currently at war with the surrounding Zerg."
Jiang Shu frowned, seemingly lost in thought.
He asked many questions before he finally understood what was going on with this group of people.
Eighty-seven years ago, a spacetime disordered place, which they called the subspace, appeared, directly causing the collapse of the Human Federation.
Fortunately, the planet where the woman lived established its own empire and began to cultivate so-called navigators, connecting several isolated planets in the surrounding area.
At that moment, without realizing it, they found themselves connected to a Zerg planet.
The two sides then began a major battle.
As for the so-called navigators, they are powerful individuals who can cultivate the laws of time and space simultaneously, and who can traverse this disordered space.
The reason why even the Venerable Ones are not able to access the laws of time is also because the threshold for comprehending time is greatly lowered in this disordered place.
Jiang Shu nodded in realization, thinking that indeed, the effects of the spacetime disorder were not limited to dealing with Cangyu Star.
"Alright, let's leave this subspace you've been talking about."
Jiang Shu raised his hand and manipulated the laws of time, instantly enveloping the entire ship.
Sensing that time had returned to normal, the crew on the ship immediately began to operate the ship and head towards the outside of the subspace.
In just half a day, they left that so-called subspace and arrived in an area where time and space were normal. (End of Chapter)
