Chapter 2 - Being in a Strange and Confusing Situation

Then, with a serious gaze and curiosity, without waiting for the earth's tremors to stop, the elderly figure dressed in luxurious clothing slowly swung his hand, attempting to tear apart the void of space. He wanted to head towards the area where the energy source in the sky was continuously gathering.

But his expression froze as he realized something.

"Strange, why is the space locked?" With surprise, the expression of the man dressed in luxurious clothing grew even more serious, and this time he immediately took off at high speed to investigate what was happening.

Elsewhere, other powerful figures were also staring at the sky in confusion. They did the same as the elderly figure dressed in luxurious clothing. Sensing the dimensional space was tightly locked, they could only fly towards the area where the energy in the sky was continuously gathering.

At this moment, most people felt like the end was imminent. The sky was dark with black clouds, the earth shook violently, as if it were about to explode. And just as everyone was feeling desperate, a point of light suddenly appeared in the area where the energy had gathered.

The point of light slowly grew larger and larger, brightening the surrounding dark clouds. Then, from that light, a massive bolt of lightning formed and crashed down directly below him.

Before the lightning struck, Ye Xiao fearfully looked up at the sky. This was because he was directly beneath the light that had formed in the sky. The light made it difficult to see. He could only sense that a terrible disaster was about to strike.

And indeed, it was true.

"No..." Ye Xiao screamed. The powerful lightning struck him, sending him into excruciating pain. His body felt like it was being burned and torn apart by the lightning. Soon, due to the unbearable pain, Ye Xiao's consciousness faded.

But a moment later, Ye Xiao suddenly regained consciousness. The pain he had felt earlier had completely vanished. He slowly opened his eyes.

Ehhh...

When he opened his eyes, Ye Xiao was shocked. The area around him was spinning and moving extremely fast.

"What's going on? Am I dead?" Seeing the strangeness around him, Ye Xiao could only feel himself dying from being struck by the terrifying lightning earlier.

But strangely, why could he still feel his real body even though he couldn't move it at all?

However, he couldn't find any answers to his current situation and only felt like he was dead.

"Ahhh... I died in vain, I didn't even get a chance to exact my revenge." Ye Xiao began to feel immense regret in his heart, feeling that his death was truly in vain, but suddenly, the strangeness returned.

The entire area he was in became so bright and dazzling that it was difficult to see.

"What is this..." Ye Xiao was once again shocked by his surroundings.

Ngung...

Suddenly, a long, buzzing sound rang out, deafening his ears.

Ahh...

Hearing that, Ye Xiao couldn't bear the pain in his ears, causing him to scream in pain and cover his ears with his hands.

The blinding light and the buzzing sound paralyzed Ye Xiao's sight and hearing.

Ahh...

Ye Xiao screamed in pain, the incessant buzzing sound felt like it could explode at any moment.

Slowly, due to the unbearable pain, Ye Xiao's consciousness began to fade, forcing him to close his eyes.

Just as Ye Xiao was about to lose consciousness, everything he had felt before suddenly vanished, and the deafening buzzing sound was no longer audible.

"Hahaha, I finally succeeded!"

Suddenly, the sound of happy laughter reached Ye Xiao's ears, accompanied by a strong gust of wind and flying dust.

"Who?" Hearing the laughter, Ye Xiao was shocked. He thought he was dead, but why was someone's laughter still ringing in his ears?

Ye Xiao slowly opened his eyes, as the strong wind made it difficult to see.

Squinting, Ye Xiao saw someone directly in front of him, but he couldn't make out their appearance clearly.

"Who...?" Ye Xiao asked in shock, rubbing his eyes as dust kept flying into them as he tried to open them.

"So weak..." The figure seemed to ignore Ye Xiao's words. He shook his head, his expression filled with disappointment.

"Who are you, and where am I now? Are you the god of death?" Ye Xiao didn't care about the figure's comments about his weakness. He was used to such remarks and taunts. He was simply curious about who the figure was and where he was. However, due to the strong gusts of wind and flying dust, he still couldn't see his surroundings clearly.

He even wondered if the figure in front of him was a god of death.

"God of death? Hahaha, kid, you're so funny!" Hearing Ye Xiao's words, the figure burst out laughing, but he also understood why Ye Xiao thought that.

As he laughed, the figure waved his hand, and suddenly everything in the world stopped.

Ehhh...

No longer feeling the wind around him, Ye Xiao slowly opened his eyes.

Wow...

And now Ye Xiao could see clearly, but his expression was strange due to shock. Right in front of him was a human figure, cross-legged in the air with its back to him. The figure sat cross-legged while floating in the air, and Ye Xiao couldn't see its face. What shocked him even more was that the surrounding area seemed to have stopped, everything completely still.

The birds in the sky were motionless, like statues floating in the air. The flying dust also stopped in midair. The surrounding trees were still bending in the wind but didn't move an inch. Everything in the world stood still, as if time had stopped.

And the next scene shocked Ye Xiao even more, making his eyes widen.

Just as Ye Xiao was about to take in the world in complete shock, the figure sitting cross-legged in the air turned toward him.
