Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2435: Chapter 2436: Safe Zone

”The base’s simple map has been drawn. This place is indeed not very dangerous, and we shouldn’t have too much trouble getting through!” Xin Lan suddenly said.

Ye Luo nodded; with the map drawn by the base, he felt a lot more reassured.

”But there’s one thing—the passage is just too large, the base can’t fully detect it, and there are many mysterious locations within that the base dares not to probe. Moreover!” At this point, Xin Lan suddenly paused and looked at Ye Luo, ”There are unknown entities within this passage, very powerful. If we provoke them, we’re undoubtedly doomed!”

Upon hearing this, Ye Luo widened his eyes, wondering if there might be a race residing here.

To survive in such an environment, they must undoubtedly be top-tier entities.

Naturally, Ye Luo wasn’t going to provoke such entities.

”Moreover, according to the base’s deductions, it should be daytime now, but come night, the space-time law here will revert back, making it far harder to endure. It’s quite likely that nights here are longer than the days, so we can’t linger too long; we can’t afford the energy consumption!” Xin Lan said gravely.

Mind you, she had the base’s supplies behind her, and the base was always quite extravagant. Yet now she was saying this, clearly indicating that their consumption might be astronomical.

After all, they were up against the space-time law, which is more daunting than the thunder principle.

If that’s the case, they truly need to hurry.

Ye Luo had originally planned to linger a bit in this safety zone, perhaps even gaining insight into the space-time law, but now it seemed like a suicidal move.

No matter how large the passage, it ultimately has an end, and they must race against time to get out. Ye Luo couldn’t imagine what kind of race could survive in such a place.

Then the three began their journey again. During the daytime, traveling was relatively easier; at least Ye Luo could gain insight into the space-time law without any interruption.

Moreover, he noticed that the skeleton became more active here, now able to gain passive insights without the Third Princess’s intervention.

The space-time laws emanating from the skeleton have increased significantly!

The skeleton is indeed peculiar; on one hand, it absorbs the external space-time laws, and on the other, it provides Ye Luo insights for cultivation.

But for now, he couldn’t worry about that. Gaining insights into the space-time law would absolutely benefit him.

However, he couldn’t comprehend why Old Monster Ding, with the space-time laws stored within his body, hadn’t chosen to traverse this space-time channel?

Of course, although Old Monster Ding was eccentric, he wasn’t a fool; there must be some secret involved.

By nightfall, they hadn’t left the safe area yet, indicating that those who came before had expended considerable effort here.

”Let’s set up camp here; it’ll be more strenuous after dark!” Xin Lan suggested.

They were already feeling that the space-time laws in the air were much denser and more violent than before, to the point where the Third Princess needed to use the armor’s strength.

”Alright, but how exactly should we set up camp?” Ye Luo asked.

He understood that the base must have some special method available.

Otherwise, the energy in Xin Lan’s armor would surely deplete overnight.

She wasn’t like Ye Luo; even without the terminal battle armor, he could manage through the night, but without the armor, Xin Lan’s path would be a dead end.

”Come help, let’s set up the tent!” Xin Lan surprisingly had a tent at hand.

But this tent wasn’t ordinary; not only were the materials special, but they were woven with various law forces.

There’s even an exceptionally advanced formation included.

With one look, Ye Luo was greatly impressed; not to mention the difficult crafting of the tent, it was probably built using countless celestial materials.

Crucially, this tent was purely a consumable; the energy expenditure overnight would likely take an unknown amount of resources to replenish the next day!

This was a luxury good; but would it be effective?

Of course, this wasn’t Ye Luo’s concern; the consumption was from the base, unrelated to him.

Setting up the tent wasn’t difficult.

In no time, the three had constructed it.

”At night, I suggest we don’t cultivate; just get some proper rest. After all, in this place, your body might not falter, but your mind could crumble first!” Xin Lan said.

After all, the Zhongzhou Empire’s research into the cultivators’ psyche was unparalleled, and Ye Luo knew the more extreme the environment, the more likely psychological problems would arise.

If one’s mentality collapsed, there was no chance of getting out.

So her suggestion was quite sensible.

Upon entering the tent, the Third Princess and Ye Luo’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Those celestial materials were indeed not wasted; nothing inside was affected by the outside world.

This made Ye Luo feel as he did in the days of the Inland—a time of comfort he hadn’t enjoyed since entering the South Territory.

And for the Third Princess, it was even rarer.

Born in the Holy City, not even the Patrol Envoy’s palace had this kind of effect.

Though there’s a downside, the tent was too small.

Perhaps to save resources, the space within was only the size of a double bed.

Indeed, there was only one bed inside, nothing else.

It’s understandable; after all, it was a resting place, and what more could be asked in such an environment? With this tent, it truly became a holy land within the passage.

But Ye Luo was sharing the tent with two beauties in such a small space; it was inevitably awkward.

The two women obviously noticed the problem too, but they couldn’t just kick Ye Luo out!

”Special circumstances call for special measures; Ye Luo, you better behave, or we’ll definitely kick you out!” Xin Lan said coldly.

Ye Luo understood she was still bothered by the previous incident.

”Haha, I’m not that kind of person!” Ye Luo immediately replied with a smile.

But even the Third Princess turned her back, clearly not believing him.
