Alex reached out to Daya.
It was a short distance of one meter, but it seemed like a heavenly rift. No matter how hard virtual-novel.net tried, virtual-novel.net could not advance for another half-step.
“Hubby!”
Daya reached out as well, but virtual-novel.net could not touch virtual-novel.net at all. She burst into desperate tears.
“Go quickly! Go quickly!”
“The space in the Well of Life is about to collapse, I… I’ll protect our daughter, I swear!”
Alex shouted. As the golden core spun vigorously, the divine power enveloped his entire body. The chaotic Chi energy wrapped both the father and daughter tightly. The next second, a tremendous force wrapped and devoured the alternate dimension’s passage, dragging the entire space into Undead Gate with a swish.
In the blink of an eye, everything disappeared.
“Ahh!” Daya cried hysterically, but at that moment, that node had already disappeared.
Aesop said, “Master, let’s go quickly. The alternate dimension’s passage on this side is going to disappear too.”
Jade picked up Daya with virtual-novel.net arm. “Go!”
The crowd hurriedly retreated to the Well of Life’s narrow passage entrance and rushed upward desperately.
The sound of whistling energy carried over behind them as a gush of immense force rushed into the Well of Life, pushing everyone upward. The Well of Life erupted endlessly with a splash, spraying an infinite amount of Spring Water of Life out of the inside. Even the crowd was sprayed out of the well, and the ground turned into a pond depression.
***
Buzz!
Inside the dimensional passage, Alex dared not relax in the slightest as virtual-novel.net hugged his daughter tightly.
The force suddenly retreated and crushed all the matters into a ball. Such a force was simply indescribable. For a moment, Alex felt as if his bones had let out a series of burst sounds. His peerless, powerful bones were crushed alive, and boundless pain swept through his entire body.
However, virtual-novel.net did not forget his mission, virtual-novel.net had to protect his daughter.
‘Requiem Clock!’
Alex immediately summoned the Requiem Clock and then hid inside the clock while carrying his daughter.
Bong, bong, bong! Bong, bong, bong!
The Requiem Clock emitted a series of deafening sounds like the morning bell and the evening drum. This was a piece of mighty Buddhist artifact with extraordinary power that held out against the spatial compression.
Then, it was a burst of violent spatial tremor.
Alex was slightly relieved as virtual-novel.net managed to resist it. While checking his daughter’s condition, virtual-novel.net hurriedly ran the Chi in the golden core to recover the broken bones. The divinity glowing with vigor in the little one protected virtual-novel.net well. At this moment, virtual-novel.net looked at Alex with a pair of black eyes while babbling.
“What a poor little kid. You have to follow me, your father, through this kind of hardship without even getting a name yet.”
“Hehehe…”
The little one did not understand Alex’s words, yet virtual-novel.net opened virtual-novel.net mouth and laughed.
Alex could only seek joy amidst sorrow after being affected by his daughter’s smile.
However, a strong thought surged in his mind-he had to protect virtual-novel.net life no matter what.
“Woo, woo…”
Hiding in the Requiem Clock, virtual-novel.net could hear the whistling sound in the space outside. It sounded like the wind, yet it was not.
At times, there was even the sound of something hitting the clock.
The divine power inside the golden core constantly flowed toward the Requiem Clock. The consumption was huge, and Alex himself could feel it. The large golden lake of the divine power kept shrinking, and the amount of loss was inestimable.
In this way, virtual-novel.net had been floating and sinking in the void, not knowing the time nor space. It might be very long, it might be very short.
The next second, the space suddenly shook violently, and the pressure on his body plunged.
He seemed to have rushed out of the collapsed alternate dimension’s passage and returned to the normal space.
