Chapter 571 - 571 Boundless Sea of Clouds, Death to Trespassers

571 Boundless Sea of Clouds, Death to Trespassers

While the beasts in the evil space were formulating plans and executing them, their Beastmaster opened his eyes amidst colorless clouds.

Chu Feng blinked, feeling a little lost. So much so that the universe’s conundrums of “who am I”, “where am I from”, and “where am I going” all appeared in front of his right eye.

Wait, it didn’t seem to be an illusion… There really were some characters in front of his eyes!

Chu Feng didn’t immediately analyze the meaning of those characters. Instead, he lowered his eyes and carefully felt the connection between him and his beasts.

It was very weak, but it did exist. The connection that was stretched out to the extreme made it feel like there was more than one world between him and his beasts.

He couldn’t open the beast panel, and even the max-level Communication which rarely had bad reception was not working. Right now, he could only vaguely sense that the beasts’ vital signs were normal. As for the other more specific details, he couldn’t sense them, nor could he establish a deeper connection!

Chu Feng tried to release his immortal energy to investigate and quickly found that his divine strength, which could be described as vast in the past, was nothing in the vast and boundless cloud ocean here.

His divine strength was at most a hair’s breadth, or even less, here. Of course, this was not because his vast divine power had shrunk all of a sudden, but because as the denominator of the scale, this boundless sea of monotone clouds, was simply too big!

In an unfamiliar environment, Chu Feng certainly wouldn’t release all the divine strength in his body, which was equivalent to his life source, just to detect how vast his surroundings were.

Even so, he had a vague deduction. It was probably possible, or rather, it was highly possible that this sea of clouds was even larger than the entire God’s world!

This was a very strange feeling, but Chu Feng accepted it without much doubt. In fact, even if the sea of clouds was smaller than he thought, it was definitely a universe-level wonder!

In this place, one could hardly feel the passing of time.

It was as if one day, the humans living on the Blue Planet found that the Sun no longer rose and set, their surroundings no longer changed, and they lost track of time, their perception, and even the concept of time.

However, his current state was still somewhat different.

Chu Feng looked down at the lines on his palm. He felt that the divine strength he had released earlier had completely left his control.

To be more precise, even if this power came back to him, he would not be able to use it! In a moment, Chu Feng had already seen through a trap in the seemingly harmless sea of clouds.

To expend energy that will not be replenished and thus die of exhaustion!

This place was not like the evil space. If he really used all his divine power, never mind whether it would be useless in this endless sea of clouds, just the fact that he would have no energy to use was a great danger.

“Buzz!”

Chu Feng’s eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly jumped into the air.

Immediately after, a power that he found extremely familiar surged in from all directions. Like a meat grinder, it cut the space he had been in into pieces!

As if sensing that it had just sliced into nothing, the vast divine strength suddenly changed direction and exquisitely slashed at Chu Feng.

“Clang!” The protective barrier on Chu Feng’s body, which was less than one centimeter, popped out and firmly blocked the all-pervasive killer move.

After that, the divine strength he had released not long ago began to grind against his protective barrier until one of them was exhausted.

This process was very fast, and with Chu Feng’s remaining concept of time, he could roughly estimate it to be a few breaths. At the same time, his energy storage had also decreased by a tiny bit.

“Whoosh!” Among the gray clouds, a light wind suddenly started blowing out of nowhere, but it didn’t move any clouds.

“It’s here again,” Chu Feng was expecting this in his heart. Although he felt that it was a little troublesome, he still had a calm smile on his face. Unless under special circumstances, he would not use his skills for the time being.

It was fine though. Even if he didn’t use any skills, he could use methods of borrowing strength to overcome it easily. The wind came, the wind went, and the wind dispersed.

The teenager remained in the same spot. Fortunately, Chu Feng had been careful before. After dealing with two or three waves of exquisite attacks from “himself” and comparing them with the divine strength he had released in succession, he had an idea of what was going on.

Sure enough, after sitting cross-legged in the sea of clouds and waiting for a while, no attack came again. In this short while, it had probably really stopped. At this point, Chu Feng finally had the time to study the characters in front of him that seemed to overlap.

The reason why he said the characters seemed to overlap, or more precisely, the words were on different layers and overlapped to form a double image, was mainly because he discovered such when he had been moving around while being attacked just now.

At first glance, the characters looked like scribble, but upon closer inspection, it turned out that they were a variety of characters stacked together.

Among the many layers of characters, the most eye-catching one was the red word “obliterate”, and the smaller line of words next to it “Trespassers of the cloud sea forbidden grounds will be killed!”.

Next to the characters was a timer with a countdown that was rapidly decreasing! With such a combination and configuration, it was clear that the designer wanted to make the targets tense.

However, Chu Feng’s mood was as calm as ever, and he wasn’t affected.

After eliminating all kinds of nonsense, he could extract keywords such as “cloud sea game”, “cloud regret game”, and “cloud high game” from the characters. It seemed like the same game with different names.

Chu Feng used a trace of power to tap on the countless Xs on the screen in his right eye that had appeared through his consciousness.

In the next moment, the world was quiet. He smoothly pulled the page to the bottom in a second, and all kinds of terrifying-looking warnings appeared.

[You shouldn’t have woken up at this time!]

[Go back… Quick, go back!]

[…Die!!]

Chu Feng frowned, not because he felt threatened. After all, it was just some words without divine strength. They didn’t hurt.

However, he felt as if his eyes were being disturbed.

He pressed the hidden scroll bar on the right and dragged it up, skipping over all kinds of threatening and tempting questions like “won’t you play the cloud sea game where you can get everything you want? If you don’t you’ll die” and finally filtering out the substantial content.

It was the same overlapped characters, but compared to the blob of black he saw at the beginning, there were only two thin layers now.

“It seems like the pile of Xs I clicked on earlier had some effect.”

What appeared in front of Chu Feng’s right eye was a pop-up window commonly seen on web pages. On the pop-up window was a very unpretentious and especially sincere multiple-choice question:

[Dear lucky/unlucky person who accidentally entered the space-time domain, do you choose to join the cloud sea game and forever maintain your love for games?]

[A, Yes, I’m willing.]

[B, No, I’m not willing (Warning: if you choose this option, you will be recognized as an intruder and will be killed immediately.)]

What a “nice” multiple-choice question.

However, other than that, Chu Feng also saw a third option that wasn’t part of the overlapping characters.

[C, Return to your original point in space… Solve… I’ll give you strength…]

Many words in option C were either omitted or blocked, giving people an inexplicable feeling of a “bad signal”.

...

When faced with unfamiliar choices, what should he choose?
