Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 1579 Seeking Fulfillment of Wishes

Chen Chuan knew that Gleim had been pursuing this matter for over a hundred years. For a fighter, especially one of the naturalistic types, this should have already highly overlapped with his own obsession with cultivation.

Pursuing goals is also a way of seeking personal breakthroughs.

Now that he saw what he sought was right before his eyes, he, being a man of nature, naturally went to pursue it without hesitation.

He fully understands this.

They had never found anything in the cave before, but recently they had been hearing noises coming from inside. This was likely related to the changes in the two worlds and also to Greizim's mental investment.

Although Greizim never used fighters when excavating here to avoid the impact of the super-limited power on the cave, and never intervened himself, but only hired laborers, one should not underestimate the spiritual influence of a throne fighter that has lasted for more than a hundred years.

This will definitely touch or trigger something, or resonate deeply with something.

Furthermore, the fact that Grezim sold the unearthed map without exchanging resources or accepting any money, only wanting a fighter who could acknowledge him, is likely not a coincidence, but rather a step towards some kind of spiritual sublimation.

This person genuinely sought their own goals, without any deliberate steps involved; everything happened naturally.

But this is actually the best way.

Just now, with his arrival, the discovery was further confirmed, which touched his spirit, so he did not hesitate to seek the final answer.

If we don't do this today, after the two worlds merge, we may never have such an opportunity again.

He nodded. This person was decisive, and the timing was indeed appropriate.

If he can find what he wants, he might be able to break free from his obsession. He can't say what will happen next, but it is very likely to be a good outcome. However, if he fails to achieve it, he will probably end up like those missing Dongxuan Temple fighters in history.

However, this place should be the site of the clash between the two realms. If this person leaves without achieving his goal, he will probably have to bear the consequences himself.

His gaze fell down, and he could clearly see that there was a huge crack right below.

But that's nothing.

He originally came here to find that fusion object, and it would be easier to absorb it without anyone around.

Besides, he had only sent a letter, and Gretchen had given him a Celestial Map in return. The two had established some friendship, so it wouldn't hurt for him to guard the breach for the time being. Even if we disregard this, he wouldn't allow the demons on the other side to break through the gap at will.

Now, the crack below is expanding continuously after it opened, and it's getting bigger and bigger. Even though it can't compare to the Immortal Crack, it's far beyond the scope of an ordinary crack.

This is probably not because there are Catholics in the Acharaka area, but because the rift was originally this size.

However, Norland has never established a central city here, and there are no signs of any mutated creatures or invasions around this rift.

Judging from the traces, it appeared for no more than one or two hours, or even less.

It is likely that such a place originally existed in history, but it was later closed for some reason and has not been seen since. The successive Siono emperors may have learned about what once existed here through some channels when they filled the cave.

As for the claim that it was dug out by Gryzym, that's a joke. The rift can't be filled with soil at all. The Dongxuan Temple fighters might be able to force their way to the other side, but even Xuejun Dao couldn't open such a large rift under the suppression of the World Ring.

Moreover, he could see very clearly that the crack had been torn open out of thin air and had nothing to do with the cave below.

The most likely reason is that something originally existed underground, something he couldn't even see the end of at a glance. It must be mysterious, and this underground sea cave is quite ancient...

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of something. Just as he was pondering it, he suddenly felt the wind around him suddenly become fierce, and the crack below became much brighter, from which a large amount of air and light rushed out. The sky, which had been relatively clear, suddenly turned gloomy.

A strong wind rose from the surrounding mountains and plains, billowing his clothes and sending leaves and grass stems flying.

Perhaps Greiheim knew he was coming today, or perhaps he had already sensed something. There were no workers involved in the daily excavation here, and he didn't see anyone on the road when he arrived. The nearby residents must have been evacuated in advance. No wonder he left so decisively.

That's good, then he won't have to worry about making a move later.

After waiting a while longer, the clouds in the sky seemed to be stirred up by a force. He looked up and sensed that the aftershocks of the continuous convergence of the forces from the two worlds had gradually spread to this place.

The entire sky quickly darkened, but as the spiritual fire around him flickered, it was as if a dazzling light had suddenly been ignited in the space.

He slowly floated up, stopping only at the center of the Earthsea Cave. At the same time, the field expanded outwards, and a thin layer of mist completely covered the cave entrance. Flashing lights reappeared in the sky, gradually appearing on the heavens, and that feeling of repulsion returned once more.

He gazed at the sky; it seemed they would arrive soon.

Through the transmission of his true self's spirit, he could see that the point of contact between the two worlds this time was much more stable than before. This was probably because there was no central city here, and it was not at a crucial point between worlds.

At this moment, within the light of the rift, the figures of demons appeared.
He glanced around; unlike in Greater Vedia, there was no one here to help him, so it looked like it would take some effort.

When those demons rushed out, they crashed into his domain, inevitably causing a momentary pause, as if his consciousness had separated from his self.

Chen Chuan raised his hand and drew his Life-Harmony Weapon. After the scattered crystal fragments coalesced, they transformed into a long, shimmering whip. With a swish, he lashed it down, and with a boom, all the demons that came out were shattered. Then, clusters of Xuan Kong Fire ignited all the remaining mist, and in an instant, the demons were burned away.

This is much easier than hunting demons in the void. With the restraint of the World Ring, as long as no higher power appears, he can kill as many demons as come.

His attention was mostly focused on the sky above. After about ten breaths, the lights in the sky seemed to converge into bright lightning, like silver snakes dancing in the air.

His expression brightened, and with a touch of his spiritual power, these things were instantly drawn into his body.

Having learned from the previous experience, this time it went very smoothly. With the combined spiritual power of the clone and the main body, these mysterious things were absorbed into their own bodies. At the same time, the long whip was swung from time to time to scatter and burn the demons.

After about an hour, he finally gathered them all together, and could now focus on dealing with the fissures below.

However, with such a large gap, he can't keep blocking it here indefinitely, and the Norland government won't allow it. Norland should have already noticed the situation here, so they should be sending people over soon.

Just as he was thinking this, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, because he saw that the crack was slowly shrinking, as if an invisible force was restraining it.

At the same time, everything around them came to a standstill, including the fluttering branches and floating sand, except for a beam of light that continued to flow through the world.

Then he saw a tall figure standing in the light, emanating a powerful sense of oppression that even caused his own aura to tremble.

Although he couldn't see the other person's exact appearance, he could tell from the outline that it should be Greizim.

My heart skipped a beat.

Feeling that vast and immense energy, the opponent had undoubtedly broken through that final limit.

It seems the other party has found what they were looking for.

However, he had been in close contact with the higher-level forces, so what appeared before him now was probably only a portion of their power.

Gleisheim should be following the path of the Divine Form, so most of his Divine Form should be in the other world, and his final breakthrough should also be there.

At that moment, he suddenly felt a surge of consciousness within him, mixed with an undisguised joy.

Then Greizim's voice boomed in my mind, as if it came from a very distant place:
"Consultant Chen, thank you. Without your help, I would not have been able to find what I was looking for."

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Mr. Gresham, this is your own persistence and effort, and has little to do with me. However, I just helped you block the demons from entering Acharaka. If you want to thank someone, then thank me for this."

Gresham said very seriously, "No, Consultant Chen, you have overlooked your own importance. Because you told me that you also heard that voice, and I got confirmation from you, I was able to prove that it was not just my own wishful thinking. Without that burden, I was able to take this step."

I am very grateful to you, and I will repay you. However, you are right, you helped me protect Acharaka, and I should thank you for that first.

The figure in the light seemed to consider for a moment, then reached out and pulled, as if it had pulled something, causing the whole world to flicker between light and shadow for a moment.

Suddenly, many invisible things that shimmered with extreme light drifted down and scattered around.

Chen Chuan was slightly surprised. He should have taken away all the fusion items that had fallen into this world, while these should be the ones that had been scattered into the outer world. He didn't expect that this person would directly pull them back.
