# Chapter 3550: Beyond the Uninterrupted
"This is Uninterrupted Ridge, you underestimate my Chaos Clan too much!"
The ancient deity clad in photoelectric divine armor, named Yun Zhen, had not only lightning and thunder around him but also chaotic energy surging forth.
Although the ancient royal clans had all transformed into human forms, they still retained powerful bloodlines.
Especially the Chaos Clan, ranked as the second most powerful race, their physical bodies were unmatched at the same cultivation level. The divine energy they cultivated was directly chaotic energy. When they performed divine abilities and techniques, or activated divine artifacts, the power they unleashed far surpassed other beings.
Yun Zhen moved his mind, and countless space rules surged beneath his feet.
The space on the ground rapidly stretched.
Gravel turned into mountains...
Gullies turned into thousand-mile fissures.
...
A hundred-zhang area instantly became a ten-thousand-mile desolate plain.
It continued to expand...
Yun Zhen opened his mouth, larger than a water vat, and spat out a mouthful of chaotic lightning and thunder.
In an instant, heaven and earth turned dark, leaving only the radiance of lightning in his field of vision.
"Crackle!"
The electric light at the very center was like a great river. The electric arcs around it were like thousands of streams and river channels.
Faced with such a powerful opponent, Zhang Ruochen dared not underestimate him in the slightest. One by one, divine artifacts flew out from his body, suspending in all directions, forming barrier after barrier of protection.
"Rustle!"
Blood-red leaves, like a rain of swords, flew out in unison, colliding with the chaotic lightning and thunder spat out by Yun Zhen.
Yun Zhen saw that those leaves were extraordinary, able to pierce through chaotic lightning and thunder, so he waved his hand and struck out a palm.
"Boom!"
The palm imprint was devastating, annihilating a large area of space.
But shockingly, the blood-red leaves were not destroyed in space and continued to fly toward him.
"What formidable sword dao."
This thought flashed through Yun Zhen's mind. Abandoning the idea of a head-on confrontation with Zhang Ruochen, he transformed into a wisp of chaotic energy and rushed into the ground.
Even so, some of his chaotic energy was still struck by the blood-red leaves.
"This human is so powerful. He hasn't even reached Great Unbound Infinite, has he?"
"Our Chaos Clan is unmatched at the same cultivation level, yet he can cross major realms and force Lord Zhen to avoid a direct confrontation."
"Has heaven and earth truly changed?"
"Don't doubt the strength of the Chaos Clan. He's only suppressing Lord Zhen because of the ancestral bone sea on him. Hurry and activate the divine formation!"
...
Zhang Ruochen stood in place, using the Bright Mirror Platform and the Eight Trigrams Compass to protect himself, blocking the incoming chaotic lightning and thunder.
Then, he swung the Sword Ancestor Divine Tree in his hand, slashing toward the void.
"Pfft!"
A section of space was shattered.
Yun Zhen, who had been hiding in the void, waiting for an opportunity to strike, was struck head-on by the Sword Ancestor Divine Tree.
The Photoelectric Divine Armor blocked most of the force for him, but he still spat out blood, heavily injured by the blow, his body flying backward.
"How did you discover me?"
Yun Zhen had full confidence in his "Chaos Origin Formless Art." Perhaps elsewhere there might be minor flaws, but at Uninterrupted Ridge, he could perfectly merge with the space of heaven and earth.
In terms of cultivation, the other party was clearly far inferior to him. It was only by borrowing the ancestral bones and the mysterious divine tree that he could gain the upper hand.
It was truly hard to understand how this young man had so quickly found his true form.
Why would Zhang Ruochen explain it to him? Holding the divine tree in one hand and forming a fist with the other, he pressed the attack, advancing step by step, beating Yun Zhen until he could only defend.
"The divine tree was born as a wooden sword, its branches and leaves never sharpened!"
"Sword Nineteen!"
Zhang Ruochen swung the divine tree, and instantly, a red light illuminated one corner of heaven and earth. Countless sword dao rules flowed between the branches and leaves, emitting tens of thousands of sword cries, slashing down straight.
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen was like the Sword Ancestor reborn, his whole body filled with ancestral divine might.
"Pfft!"
Yun Zhen failed to block the Sword Ancestor Divine Tree, and the photoelectric armor on his body was broken through.
Where the armor was damaged, bursts of blood mist exploded.
The deepest wound was on his chest, piercing through Yun Zhen's mountain-like body.
The powerful physical body of ancient beings appeared fragile before Zhang Ruochen.
Even though Yun Zhen's cultivation had reached the level of Great Unbound Infinite, he was completely suppressed, with little power to fight back.
At this moment, the other dozen or so Chaos Clan powerhouses, some in human form, some ghost-like, some dragons or phoenixes, had already activated the divine formation outside the Uninterrupted World.
The formation plate of the divine formation covered tens of thousands of miles of land, appearing on the ground, composed of densely packed time imprint light points and space rules.
"Divine formation rises, time and space perish."
The formation plate rotated, rapidly contracting.
The divine formation here was clearly created by a "Primordial Ancestor"-level figure, extraordinary, bringing immense pressure to Zhang Ruochen.
The power of the formation continuously annihilated time and space.
Time flow grew slower and slower, space became more and more solidified.
It was like an invisible hand grasping time and space, finally making them completely disappear.
Including Zhang Ruochen within that time and space!
Standing outside the formation, Yun Zhen refined the sword energy within his body as he spoke: "This formation was left by a distant ancient half-ancestor of my clan. Even if a peak Great Unbound Infinite cultivator came, once trapped in this formation, they would only face death and destruction."
"Then let's see if you have that ability!"
Divine energy surged within Zhang Ruochen's body as he fully activated the Blunt Void Stone and the Time Source Pearl, but the formation's contraction only slowed down.
He couldn't stop it.
"God-Defying Stele!"
Zhang Ruochen shouted loudly.
The God-Defying Stele flew out, heavily landing on the ground.
The light of the formation immediately dimmed by a large margin.
"Shua!"
Zhang Ruochen merged with the sword bone, transforming into a brilliant sword light, forming a "one" character sword path, shooting out and striking the divine formation's light wall, condensed from time imprint light points and space rules.
"Bang!"
The human sword trembled, the light wall slowly bulging outward...
Yun Zhen's expression changed slightly, his shock reaching an indescribable level.
He stopped healing, shifted his position, and appeared at the most important formation node of the divine formation, continuously releasing divine energy from his body, pouring it into the formation.
At the same time, he pointed a finger.
A bright river of time condensed above the divine formation.
With Yun Zhen participating in controlling the formation, its power increased several times. Although it hadn't reached the formation's maximum power, it was no longer breakable by cultivators below the Indestructible Infinite level.
Zhang Ruochen immediately retreated, avoiding the river of time descending from the sky.
"This young man's cultivation hasn't even reached Great Unbound Infinite, yet how can his attainments in time and space be so high? Even with time and space suppressed, his speed is still this fast."
Yun Zhen realized Zhang Ruochen's potential threat—he might become another Immovable Bright King Great Venerable in the future—and resolved to kill him today no matter what.
Zhang Ruochen landed on the God-Defying Stele, his eyes showing no panic. He raised his hands as if supporting something, spreading open the Taiji Four Symbols Diagram scene.
As the four symbols rotated, the time imprint light points and space rules in the divine formation were pulled into the diagram, continuously absorbed by the Taiyin "Jade Tree Dark Moon" and the Sun "Illusory Extinction Star Sea."
But the power of the divine formation was like a primordial divine ocean; with Zhang Ruochen's current cultivation absorption speed, it was impossible to swallow it all.
"Yuan Huang, what are you doing?"
Yun Zhen's voice sounded outside the formation.
The pressure on Zhang Ruochen lightened. He saw Yun Zhen pierced through by Yuan Sheng's spear, flying out and pinned to a distant mountain peak.
On the mountain peak, countless earth and stones fell.
"Break!"
Zhang Ruochen shouted loudly, transforming into a pillar of sword light, rushing out of the divine formation.
All the ancient beings in the formation screamed in unison, flying out in all directions.
Ghost-type ancient beings exploded into black mist.
Dragon and phoenix ancient beings turned into blood mist, leaving only skeletons.
Zhang Ruochen flew to Yuan Sheng's side and said, "Why did you have to wade into this muddy water?"
Yuan Sheng extended her palm, her five fingers gently grasping in the air, retrieving the Blue Sea Chaos Spear. Her ponytail swayed in the wind, heroic and spirited as she said, "If I hadn't come, could you have broken the formation?"
"Although the formation here is powerful, the key lies in whether the person activating it is powerful. You haven't forgotten that I also have a formation, have you?" Zhang Ruochen seemed unconcerned, appearing calm and confident.
Yuan Sheng's gaze fell on Yun Zhen as she said, "This is the entrance to the Uninterrupted World, where Kong Yinxue is imprisoned. Don't tell me you want to release her?"
"So, Kong Yinxue never died? You were lying to me all along?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuan Sheng said, "Back then, my Primordial Path Clan participated in suppressing Kong Yinxue. Once she's released, she will definitely retaliate, and the entire lower realm will be in turmoil! If this is your goal, I will also stop you."
Yun Zhen fell from the mountain peak, landing between two peaks, kneeling on one knee. The bloody hole in his chest kept bleeding.
But he seemed to have discovered something wrong, his expression changing drastically as he said, "Someone has broken the five-clan seal and entered the Uninterrupted World."
Yuan Sheng's eyes sharpened. She moved to Yun Zhen's front and reached out her hand.
"Hua!"
Instantly, dense spatial cracks appeared between the two peaks.
All the spatial cracks converged into a light mass dozens of zhang in diameter.
Inside the light mass was a spatial hole.
Yun Zhen said, "Back then, after Kong Yinxue was suppressed into the Uninterrupted World, dozens of Infinite Realm powerhouses from the five clans joined forces to seal this place. No one could forcibly break the seal, not even a clan emperor."
Zhang Ruochen came beneath the light mass, carefully observing, and his brow furrowed.
Yuan Sheng saw his unusual expression and asked, "What did you see?"
"Haven't you noticed? The method used to break the seal here is exactly the same as the method used to break the Chaotian Que formation," Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuan Sheng's expression darkened. "Jiusi Yitianhuang? He entered the Uninterrupted World?"
"That's likely the case, but... what is he trying to do?"
Zhang Ruochen was naturally very wary of Jiusi Yitianhuang, knowing that one step forward might be walking into a trap.
But thinking that things had already escalated to this point, whether for Jie Zunzhe's sake or for a glimmer of hope to obtain the Udumbara Flower, he could only advance now, not retreat.
Sometimes, in the face of life, death, safety, and danger, one must make a choice.
For that glimmer of hope.
Go for it.
Zhang Ruochen took a step forward, and his figure was swallowed by the spatial hole.
"Zhang Ruochen!"
Yuan Sheng failed to grab Zhang Ruochen. Her eyes hardened, and she rushed in with her spear.
"Quickly inform the clan emperor and the ancestors."
Yun Zhen knew the severity of the situation. Even though he was severely injured, he still followed closely behind Zhang Ruochen and Yuan Sheng, rushing into the Uninterrupted World.
