After an hour of grogginess in this peculiar time, Su Han was directly sent back.
Following that, after another period of contemplation, Su Han re-entered that unique world. Upon entering for the second time, Su Han's grogginess had significantly reduced.
Emerging for the second time, Su Han was delighted. By continuously entering that peculiar space, he would gradually become more lucid, eventually reaching the same state as when he entered that unique space via the black jade. Previously, when using the black jade to travel to that space, Su Han could move with clarity. Now, however, he was unable to act lucidly within it.
Su Han's current objective was to be able to act with clarity in that peculiar space.
As Su Han continuously experimented, to the observers on the nearby spaceship, he would suddenly vanish into space and then suddenly reappear in space.
The people on the spaceship began to converse.
"The Sect Master suddenly performed a space jump, leaving, and then suddenly reappeared with a space jump. What is he doing?"
"The Sect Master must have profound reasons for doing this. Didn't you see the Sect Master meditating? I believe the Sect Master is undergoing some kind of cultivation. How could ordinary people like us possibly understand this method of cultivation?"
"The Sect Master is a Taiyi Golden Immortal. If he cultivates like this, then we should try to learn from him!"
"Learn? You still want to learn? You're overestimating yourself. What level of cultivation does the Sect Master possess? He's a Taiyi Golden Immortal. You are merely at the Nascent Soul stage."
"..."
Su Han was, of course, unaware of the discussions on the nearby spaceship. He was currently engaged in continuous entries into that peculiar space.
After three consecutive days, Su Han could finally maintain a period of lucidity upon entering that peculiar space. During his lucid moments, Su Han perceived things that he couldn't sense when he was groggy. This space was somewhat different from the space he accessed through the black jade. There were distinctions in the dao principles and energy. To be precise, the energy in this space was not as condensed.
Su Han was greatly curious about this space. After all, amidst the circulation of that peculiar energy, he could not sense any life. Su Han had entered here many times and had not encountered any life.
Su Han believed this to be an excellent place for cultivation. His intuition told him that cultivating here would undoubtedly bring benefits.
...
While Su Han was cultivating, at the main space channel, Great Luo Golden Immortals from the withered black creatures were engaged in battle with the Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Immortal-Demon Great Universe. Naturally, Taiyi Golden Immortals below were also fighting.
On one front, Lord Yiyuan was fighting a withered black creature at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level.
In this battle, Lord Yiyuan was not exerting his full strength. A significant portion of his attention was focused on the Great Luo level combatants clashing in the void. Greed flickered in his eyes. He yearned to reach the Great Luo Golden Immortal level in his cultivation.
Although the withered black creature fighting Lord Yiyuan was also a Taiyi Golden Immortal, it was only at the early stage, completely outmatched by Lord Yiyuan.
When fighting it, Lord Yiyuan was merely going through the motions. He appeared to be fighting with all his might, but he was not using any real power, merely engaging in a superficial skirmish with the withered black creature.
As they fought, a Great Luo Golden Immortal level combat energy whizzed past from nearby. This energy remained in the void, causing no impact on anything within the Immortal-Demon Great Universe.
Having been at this defensive line for so long, Lord Yiyuan naturally knew that such energies would not breach their defenses. Therefore, he showed no panic, continuing his feigned combat. However, it was precisely these untouchable attacks that made Lord Yiyuan aware of the chasm between himself and the Great Luo Golden Immortals. In fact, the difference was likely greater than the gap between chasms.
Lord Yiyuan inwardly cursed: Great Luo Golden Immortals, when will I ever attain such strength!
At this moment, the Taiyi Golden Immortal level withered black creature fighting Lord Yiyuan launched another attack.
Lord Yiyuan blocked it as usual.
However, this time, the block resulted in Lord Yiyuan being sent flying.
Lord Yiyuan was greatly astonished. How could this Taiyi Golden Immortal level withered black creature be so powerful? Was it playing a trick, pretending to be weak to catch him off guard?
With this thought, Lord Yiyuan immediately became serious, preparing to unleash his true abilities.
Before Lord Yiyuan could make a move, the Taiyi Golden Immortal level withered black creature advanced again to attack.
A claw lunged directly towards Lord Yiyuan.
Lord Yiyuan attempted to dodge, but the claw suddenly emitted a peculiar light. This light was black and exceeded the power of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Lord Yiyuan's mind raced. He immediately recalled the Great Luo level energy attack that had just passed by.
Lord Yiyuan despaired: So, the withered black creature at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level that attacked earlier left something for this Taiyi Golden Immortal level withered black creature. It seems I will die here today.
The death that Lord Yiyuan expected in his despair did not come. Instead, he was dragged into a peculiar space.
Within this space, a voice began to tempt Lord Yiyuan.
"I sense your greed for power!"
"Do you wish to become a Great Luo Golden Immortal?"
"Then help us do our work!"
"..."
In a mere moment, Lord Yiyuan was tempted for several hours. This was due to the difference between the perception of time in thought and in reality.
When Lord Yiyuan came back to his senses, a demon lord from the distant Immortal-Demon Great Universe was flying over, preparing to aid him.
Lord Yiyuan retaliated with an attack, killing the Taiyi Golden Immortal level withered black creature before him.
"Lord Yiyuan, are you alright?"
Lord Yiyuan replied, "I am fine. I merely exposed a fake opening to trick that withered black creature."
The helpful demon lord, suspecting nothing, turned and left to continue eliminating withered black creatures.
Lord Yiyuan ceased his actions and turned, retreating towards the rear. When questioned by other Taiyi Golden Immortals, he claimed fatigue.
Lord Yiyuan's retreating light flew to the edge of the battle line. After requesting leave from the commander of this front, he began to fly through an area where space jumps were prohibited. He flew for a considerable time before finally exiting the region where space jumps were forbidden. Even as a Taiyi Golden Immortal, facing such a prohibition imposed by the heavenly dao, he could only resort to flying.
Upon exiting the prohibited area, Lord Yiyuan immediately performed several space jumps, reaching a safe location. He then took out an object. It was like a glass ball, but within it swirled a wisp of black gas.
