625: Chapter 625 Void Ridge
Nolan's residence was located in the most remote corner of the central district of the Void Realm.
It was a very small courtyard with blue bricks and grey tiles, a mottled wooden door, and there wasn't even a plaque in front of it.
Zhao Zhao pushed open the door and stood in the courtyard, stunned.
"Is this Grandpa Nolan's residence?"
"That God Emperor Nolan?"
"That top-tier existence in the Void Realm?"
She had grown up by Nolan's side since she was a child, but had never been to his residence.
She had thought that a God Emperor's residence should be magnificent and imposing, as resplendent as City Lord Di Wushuang's City Lord Mansion—
She hadn't expected it to be so humble.
It was so humble that it wasn't even as good as the area where a pseudo-god lived!
Furthermore, the courtyard was covered in dust; it was clearly uninhabited for a long time!
Chen Yi frowned slightly, seemingly sensing something, but he didn't say anything more.
Zhao Zhao led everyone through the courtyard to a side room.
The moment she pushed open the door, a pale golden light surged from the depths of the room; it was clearly the teleportation Formation!
"This should be it; it can teleport us directly near the Void Ridge!"
"Mm, then let's go in!"
Everyone stepped into the teleportation Formation, and with a flash of light, they disappeared from the side room.
The scene before them left everyone stunned.
Although it was named Void Ridge, it wasn't a ridge at all, but a massive star!
It was so huge that it left one speechless!
It was likely thousands of times larger than the sun, if not more!
Any planet, any building, any city in the Void Realm was like dust before it!
In the surrounding Void Realm, countless tiny threads of energy surged from all directions, converging into this star!
It seemed to be spiritual energy and magic power from different life planets across the Universe!
Everyone hovered in the Void Realm, staring at the massive star before them, completely dumbfounded.
"This is the Void Ridge?"
"This isn't any ridge; it's clearly a massive star!"
"Is the world will… right at the Peak of this?"
"There's no time to be shocked now; climbing is the priority!"
Yue Wen stepped forward. "Let me try first!"
She took a step toward the star, feeling nothing!
She continued to step, continuing to climb upward!
One step, two steps, ten steps, a hundred steps—she climbed three hundred kilometers, and there seemed to be nothing unusual!
She waved, signaling that there was no problem here.
Chen Yi nodded. "Let's go!"
Everyone climbed upward one after another.
Along the way, there were indeed no obstacles.
Other than being a little bit higher than an ordinary mountain, it didn't seem to be any different!
"It doesn't seem as terrifying as Grandpa Nolan said!"
"Exactly, exactly! Apart from being a bit high, it's no different from an ordinary mountain!"
"Could it be that there are some monsters?"
"I don't think so? We've been climbing for so long and haven't seen any monsters—"
However, just as they reached halfway, Emilia's figure suddenly paused, and her body fell from the air.
Without any sign, without any warning, she plummeted straight down!
She desperately tried to mobilize the power within her, but that power seemed locked away; she couldn't use it at all.
Fortunately, Zhao Zhao was quick-witted and caught her.
"What happened?"
Emilia shook her head. "I can't fly anymore. It seems like after passing a critical point, all my power disappeared, and then I fell."
Everyone was confused.
They didn't feel anything?
Their power was still there, their flight ability was normal, and nothing had changed.
Why did Emilia suddenly fall?
However, Chen Yi quickly noticed the anomaly and said, "Emilia, I estimate that this might be the highest point your power can reach. Try to see if you can devour the surrounding power here."
Emilia nodded, closed her eyes, took out an energy purple crystal, and began to absorb the surrounding power.
Those threads of energy surging from the Void Realm, guided by her will, actually changed direction and began to madly pour into her body.
And the energy from the energy purple crystal was now like a high-pressure water gun; the energy was compressed to the extreme and fused into her body!
Her Aura began to climb at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this, Zhao Zhao, Fiya, and Yue Wen instantly understood the situation.
You climb as high as your power allows!
And Cultivating near the critical point is the fastest!
This is likely the rule of the Void Ridge—the stronger your power, the higher you can climb!
When you climb to the position of your power limit, the energy concentration there is the limit for your Cultivation!
Cultivating at the limit position is faster than anywhere else!
If Zhao Zhao hadn't caught Emilia just now, she, having lost her power, would likely have fallen completely from this mountainside and been smashed to death!
It was truly terrifying!
Emilia opened her eyes and looked at Chen Yi. "Don't worry about me. I'm fine here; you all continue climbing upward! Time is tight, and there's no time to waste on me!"
Chen Yi looked at her and nodded. "Alright, remember, absolutely do not act rashly!"
"I know!"
Everyone turned around one after another and continued to climb upward.
Emilia sat cross-legged in the Void Realm, closed her eyes, and began to focus on Cultivating.
Her Aura, under the infusion of energy, steadily climbed!
This time was her only chance; she had to use this to achieve a Breakthrough to Ancient God, or even God Emperor!
—
Not long after, Zhao Zhao's figure also stopped in the Void Realm.
She hovered there, surrounded by a pale red light, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead.
She looked at Chen Yi's back, bit her lip, and finally spoke.
"Chen Yi, I… I've reached my limit too."
Chen Yi stopped, turned back to look at her, and the situation was indeed not very optimistic.
Any further up, and the pressure from the Void Ridge would already make it difficult for her to breathe.
If she continued to force herself, she would fall from mid-air just like Emilia!
Chen Yi nodded. "Alright, Cultivate right here; don't force yourself!"
Zhao Zhao nodded. "Don't worry, I wouldn't joke with my own life."
She sat cross-legged in the Void Realm, closed her eyes, and began to use the surrounding energy of the Void Realm to accelerate the refining of the chaos crystal.
She didn't want to be someone who would hold others back!
Fiya had already stopped at an earlier point.
Half a day ago, when she felt her power draining more and more severely, she knew she had reached her limit.
She didn't force it, sat down on the spot, and began to Cultivate.
Now, the only ones still climbing were Chen Yi and Yue Wen.
The surface of the Void Ridge extended beneath their feet, and red-gold light surged from all directions, illuminating their figures as if they were two golden statues.
The wind whistled in their ears—no, that wasn't wind, but the sound produced by extremely terrifying energy flows moving at high speeds!
Chen Yi and Yue Wen advanced rapidly with Ancient God-level power, advancing hundreds of thousands of kilometers almost every minute, equivalent to circling the Blue Planet, Earth, a dozen times!
This speed would be considered terrifying anywhere else, but before the Void Ridge, it was still as slow as a person walking on Earth!
The Void Ridge was truly too huge, so huge that it made one feel despair!
