Yu Youhan frowned deeply.
From the moment she stepped into this underground palace, her connection with the Returning Ruins Origin was severed.
This meant she was currently in a completely independent dimension, with laws entirely different from those of Jiu Zhou. On this basis, the characteristics of the Returning Ruins Dao Power were changed, and all divine skills naturally became ineffective.
This feeling was very similar to the one she had in the Imperial Palace tunnel; her cultivation remained, but she couldn’t use it.
"If I’m not mistaken, this underground palace has already been detached from Jiu Zhou and is drifting in the vast void," Yu Youhan said solemnly. "From the start, Wu Lie didn’t plan to fight us head-on but intended to exile us completely in this way..."
Chen Mo also realized the problem at this moment, feeling a chill in his heart.
He turned towards the entrance they came through, only to find that the passage had vanished, leaving only a smooth wall that couldn’t be moved despite urging Qi Blood Power.
"It’s useless. This isn’t some array or barrier but a real space barrier," Yu Youhan said.
Chen Mo clenched his fists, feeling dejected: "It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have been so impulsive, and now I’ve dragged the Empress into this."
They had thought it was a perfect opportunity to kill Wu Lie, but it turned out to be a trap deliberately set by him, putting both of them in such a predicament.
Yu Youhan shook her head, saying: "This isn’t your fault. Wu Lie had everything planned. As long as we wanted to kill him, we would eventually fall into the trap... Besides, I think it’s fine this way, without all those flies and bees fighting over my man. It feels much more peaceful."
Chen Mo’s mouth twitched slightly.
Although they were isolated from the world, Primordial Qi still existed. He and the Empress had long reached the fasting realm, so they wouldn’t die even without eating or drinking. Theoretically, they could live here forever.
But the problem was, there were still people waiting for him outside...
Yu Youhan glanced at Chen Mo, seeing him lower his head in silence, and snorted coldly: "Looking like this, are you unwilling to stay here with me?"
"Ahem, of course, I am willing," Chen Mo cleared his throat, forcing a smile and said: "Don’t look at this underground palace’s small size. With some renovation, it could still be quite cozy. By then, we could have a few more kids and enjoy family bliss ahead of time."
"Pah! Who wants to have kids with you?" Yu Youhan blushed slightly and pointed at Yu Hongyin, who stood aside: "Have them with her!"
"But..."
Before Chen Mo could celebrate, Yu Youhan continued: "Breaking the space barrier doesn’t mean we can go back."
"This underground palace and Jiu Zhou are like two lonely boats on the vast sea. It’s almost impossible to lock onto its position unless we can re-establish contact with Jiu Zhou, preferably with an Ultimate Venerable who masters Chaos Law to guide us..."
"The requirements are exceedingly demanding, almost as difficult as climbing to the heavens, which is the very basis of Wu Lie’s confidence."
After Yu Youhan finished, she thought Chen Mo would become more disheartened, yet he wasn’t. Instead, his expression looked a bit strange.
"An Ultimate Venerable mastering Chaos Law?"
"I seem to already have a suitable candidate..."
"Hmm?"
