Chapter 265: Thunder Core Barrier

“What is this?” Nante stopped beside Wang Ye and looked at the natural barrier in front of him in shock.
It was made of incomparably boundless origin of thunder!
If every lightning strike was a raindrop, then the thunder origin core barrier before them was a downpour.
“We can’t get through.” Wang Ye stood where he was.
If his body passed through, he would die. Even if he had the talent of Immortality, his body and soul would be destroyed.
“Hey, two cosmic-level brats, how did you guys get here?” A man with a scar on his face raised his eyebrows.
Wang Ye glanced at him and said, “I killed a lot of people who didn’t know what’s good for them.”
The scarred man laughed. “Not bad. You even know how to bluff.”
Wang Ye ignored him. He glanced at the three Dark Energy-level teams.” How long have you been here?”
The Dark Energy-level team in the middle was led by a bar-browed man who looked at Wang Ye with fierce eyes. He said slowly, “Three cosmic days. They arrived yesterday.”
“Do you have no way to enter?” Wang Ye said.
“Nonsense, why else would we stay here?” A young man from the Dark Energy-level team on the right snapped impatiently.
Wang Ye observed his surroundings.
The good news was that he and Nante seemed to be catching up.
The bad news was that if they couldn’t solve the problem before them, they would be stuck here and then be caught up by the latecomers.
“Has anyone tried?” Wang Ye continued to ask.
“Yeah. He’s dead,” The bar-browed man replied.
“Is it the same around here?” Wang Ye said.
“Yes, it’s surrounded by the thunder origin core barrier,” The bar-browed man said.
“What is the thunder origin core barrier?” Nante asked in confusion.
The scarred man on the left laughed. “You don’t even know the thunder origin core. How did you survive?”
The bar-browed man said, “The Origin Core Spell is a Dark Energy-level elemental-type ability spell. It uses the user as the origin core to attract the origin of thunder and form a stable structure. The stronger the Origin Core Spell, the more origin of thunder it attracts, the more stable the structure, and the stronger the power.”
“The black realm’s master can’t maintain the Origin Core Spell forever,” Wang Ye said.
The remaining consciousness might be able to use the Origin Core Spell for a short time, but it was impossible to maintain this state for a long time.
Even if the other party had an obsession, it was impossible for him to be fixated on the Origin Core Spell.
The bar-browed man nodded. “We’re guessing that it’s a top-rank lightning-element Dark Energy-level equipment, or that there’s a weapon spirit in the black realm.”
“It can’t be a weapon spirit,” The man leading the Dark Energy-level team on the right had a cold look in his eyes. “A weapon spirit won’t be so bored as to keep using the Origin Core Spell. It must be a top-rank lightning-element Dark Energy-level equipment. Although we can only dream of obtaining top-rank Dark Energy-level equipment, it’s normal for a Black Hole-level expert to have one or two.”
Top-rank Dark Energy-level equipment!
Wang Ye sighed.
That included Dark Energy level 9 equipment and above. The average price was around a million dark crystals, which was equivalent to 100 trillion cosmic dollars.
It was indeed unimaginable for a Dark Energy-level expert.
He chatted with the three teams for a while and they got a little more familiar with each other.
The Dark Energy-level team in the middle belonged to the End Mountain Cosmic Nation. The bar-browed man was the leader of a small family similar to the Munro family, Luoyu King Hayat, a Dark Energy level 9 warrior.
The Dark Energy-level team on the right belonged to the Shangxian Yuan Cosmic Nation. It was slightly further away from the Ancient Battlefield Milky Way and didn’t belong to the neighboring 5 cosmic nations. It was a large family’s exploration team, the Windward Team. The leader was Yuanhe Fengqizi, a Dark Energy level 7 warrior.
The Dark Energy-level team on the left didn’t belong to a cosmic nation. It was a cosmic adventurer team. The scarred man in the lead was a 2-star adventurer, Lu Gao, a Dark Energy level 5 warrior.
Luoyu King Hayat was the strongest, had the highest status, and was more stable in handling matters.
Wang Ye mainly conversed with him, gaining most information about the thunder origin core barrier.
Its power reached the Super Star level.
A team led by an advanced Dark Energy-level expert refused to admit defeat and barged in. In the end, they were annihilated.
The surrounding situation was not much different from here. The thunder origin core barrier was everywhere.
However, some seemed to be strong while some were weak. The most powerful thunder origin core barrier was several times stronger than this.
They were not the only ones trapped.
“At least a thousand teams are trapped,” Hayat said in a deep voice. “Everyone is trying to think of a way. The treasure of the black realm’s master must be inside, but there are restrictions. The thunder origin core barrier is probably only the first stage.”
It was the right choice to brainstorm. Instead of wandering around aimlessly, it was better to gather other experts and discuss a method together.
“Has anyone gone in?” Wang Ye asked.
“Yes.” Hayat pondered for a moment. “As far as I know, at least dozens of teams have entered.”
There were still many experts.
Wang Ye sighed.
The thunder origin core barrier, which he had no solution to, had already been successfully broken through by so many teams.
“Now that the second batch of teams from the five cosmic nations have entered, it won’t be long before a large number of Super Star-level warriors will arrive here and pass through the thunder origin core barrier to take the treasures of the black realm’s master,” Wang Ye said.
He and Nante basically had no chance.
“There won’t be any Super Star-level experts.” Hayat shook his head. “The number one expert of the Luoyu family, the Super Star level 3 Luoyu King Yasi, was rejected outside the black realm.”
“Why?” Wang Ye didn’t understand.
“Be it life planets or the black realms, there’s a limit to the greatest capacity they can withstand. You should have seen countless shattered dark crystals. This is a sign that the structure of the black realm has begun to become unstable and is gradually collapsing.”
Dark crystals were the backbone of black realms.
“If it’s a newly appeared black realm, Super Star-level experts might still be able to enter. However, this black realm is very old, at least more than a thousand years old. It can’t withstand the powerful energy of Super Star Lifeforms. Of course, this is just my speculation,” Hayat said. “I’m not sure about the specifics yet.”
Wang Ye nodded.
The current black realm was like a bridge that had been built for a long time and was showing signs of collapse. If the weight was too great in a short period, it would likely collapse instantly.
If Hayat’s speculation was correct… At present, the strongest in the black realm should be a Dark Energy level 9 warrior?
It seemed that he still had some hope left.
After understanding the general situation, Wang Ye and Nante began to wander around.
They understood, but they still had to confirm it themselves. Either way, there was nothing to do if they just sat there.
“As expected, there are strong and weak.” Wang Ye walked along the thunder origin core barrier and observed it carefully.
“The levels of space are also slightly different.” Nante had already grasped some of the mysteries of Space Distortion, and his mastery of Spatial Control had improved tremendously.
“There must be a secret that we don’t know about,” Wang Ye said.
“I think there’s a way to get there.” Nante nodded.
“What is it?” Wang Ye was surprised.
“Away you thought of,” Nante looked over.
He had too much confidence in him… He didn’t have any ideas at all.
“But 1 might be able to give it a try.” Wang Ye said.
“How?” Nante asked.
Wang Ye quickly changed his equipment. He swung the Nine Sharp Saber in his right hand and severed his left hand.
Nante was flabbergasted by Wang Ye’s series of actions. He didn’t know what the latter wanted to do.
Peng!
Suddenly, Wang Ye’s combat energy burst out, increasing his strength to the extreme.
An ability shield condensed around his body along with a layer of combat energy, forming a double protection. He dashed and forcefully pierced through the thunder origin core barrier.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Lightning and thunder intertwined like the roar of a Thunder God.
Nante watched in a daze as Wang Ye’s life aura dwindled, and in the next instant-
Pa!
With his broken left hand as the source, Wang Ye’s body was quickly reassembled.
After changing into the Brahma Equipment Set again, Wang Ye looked as if nothing had happened. Instead, he looked at the thunder origin core barrier coldly.
“Wang Ye, you…” Nante was shocked by Wang Ye’s talent.
This was too ridiculous!
“Hayat is right, we can pass through. The thunder origin core barrier isn’t too thick,” Wang Ye said. “If you’re strong enough, you can cross it after a short fight. It doesn’t have any consciousness, and it won’t attack on its own. So, even though it has Super Star-level power, it’s completely possible to crack it.”
He could not do it at the moment, but if he was an intermediate Dark Energy-level warrior, Wang Ye was confident that he could do it.
Therefore, Hayat’s speculation was not without basis.
“But for us, there’s still no solution,” Nante said. “Forcefully crossing it requires too much strength. Unless we have heaven-defying equipment, we won’t be able to protect our fragile bodies… Hmm?”
Nante looked at Wang Ye. “Did you feel that?”
“What?” Wang Ye was still thinking.
“Powerful spatial fluctuations!” Nante immediately dashed out.
Wang Ye followed and soon saw a young man in a reddish-brown battle suit standing in front of the thunder origin core barrier. There was a bloodline mark on his forehead that looked like a blazing sun. He stood with his head held high.
He glanced at Wang Ye and Nante from the corner of his eyes, then his eyes turned sharp as he stepped forward.
Every step he took seemed to break through space. The surrounding space became distorted, and even his body twisted strangely. In just a few steps, his body seemed to be distorted into pieces.
Wang Ye’s pupils suddenly constricted.
He saw that the thunder origin core barrier had also become distorted and was sucked into the young man’s Spatial Control.
The other party’s steps were simple and fast. The thunder origin core barrier was misaligned, and a path was forcefully formed!
The young man walked through the space with his head held high. The origin of thunder didn’t even attack and quickly returned to its original state.
In just this short moment, Wang Ye and Nante had been shocked beyond belief.
Advanced path of space, Space Distortion!
There was indeed a way!
“Can you do it?” Wang Ye looked at Nante.
“No, the difference is too big.” Nante frowned. “His Spatial Distortion is at least at stage 3. I’ve barely reached stage 1 with the help of the black realm’s unique environment. I can try, but the failure rate is more than 90%.”
Wang Ye rejected the idea immediately. “Let’s think of another way.”
There was no need to go to such lengths.
Since the other party could pass through with Space Distortion, there must be other ways.
The two of them did not stay where they were. They continued to wander around, looking for other possibilities.
Unfortunately, their luck wasn’t that good. After wandering around for half a cosmic day, all the thunder origin core barriers were almost the same, though their strengths were different.
Soon, they returned to their original position.
Wang Ye let out a soft gasp.
In just one cosmic day, the original three teams had doubled, expanding to six teams!
One of the beautiful Dark Energy-level girls seemed to be quite… Familiar?
“Wang Ye! You’re Wang Ye!” A delicate voice suddenly sounded..
