"How do we break it open?" Chang Qing looked at the towering barrier and felt unsure where to start. The barrier was so expansive, like the edge of a world, isolating everything. His Heaven-Opening Axe was sharp, but compared to the massive barrier, it seemed insignificant. "Invoke the celestial patterns on the Heaven-Opening Axe and use its divine techniques to carve open a portal." Wu Jiuling spoke, and a giant axe appeared in his right hand as he held it firmly. "Watch closely!" As he finished speaking, flames surged around Wu Jiuling, his soul fire burning fiercely, instantly tearing apart the sky and earth with terrifying force.

The intricate patterns etched into the axe became filled with a fiery red line temporally. The fire red line quickly outlined path patterns, intertwining to produce strange transformations. In an instant, the axe blade turned fiery red, and sharp rays emanated with an intensity that seemed to make the world cry. Wu Jiuling bellowed, and the Heaven-Opening Axe sliced a mysterious pattern, sending out a burst of radiant brilliance. This realm seemed to plunge into chaos as the axe light slammed fiercely onto the sky-covering barrier, creating a massive roar. At this moment, an enormous crack could be distinctly seen on the barrier, stretching deep into the unknown. Yet, despite this, the barrier remained intact, though chaotic aura seeped from the crack. Chang Qing was startled by the scene. His teacher’s strength far exceeded his own; even the peak of a quasi-emperor might be intimidated by that strike. However, such terrifying power still failed to open the barrier. "Your weapon... is lacking." Beside them, Su Nan frowned at the giant axe in Wu Jiuling’s hand. His divine sense could perceive more clearly. Breaking open this barrier was not a mere feat of strength. Specific divine techniques had to be used to sever the special energy inside. Wu Jiuling’s power and techniques should have sufficed. But the accompanying weapon was missing crucial elements, preventing it from breaking through at the decisive moment. "No way, my talent is limited, and I have not comprehended the weapon." "The Heaven-Opening Axe was an extension achieved only by observing Chang Qing’s training." Saying this, Wu Jiuling looked toward Chang Qing expectantly: "Chang Qing’s weapon is perfect, though it still lacks some power, it should be enough to break it open." Chang Qing took a deep breath upon hearing this. "I’ll give it a try!" With that, he formed a void grip with his right hand, and the perfectly empowered Heaven-Opening Axe fell into his hand. Beside him, Wu Jiuling and Su Nan’s eyes brightened. The Heaven-Opening Axe Wu Jiuling had condensed seemed identical to this one. Yet, upon closer inspection, differences were apparent. The most notable aspect was the intricate patterns etched onto Chang Qing’s axe, which were more numerous and complex. Moreover... the blade of this Heaven-Opening Axe shimmered with the metallic gleam of gold and iron, as if it were a solid object! "Chang Qing... can your Heaven-Opening Axe solidify?" Wu Jiuling asked in amazement. Su Nan, beside him, also looked on in surprise. The solidification of an accompanying weapon had never been recorded in history. "It can, but it’s difficult." Chang Qing nodded helplessly. "I spent two large pieces of Great Emperor divine gold to solidify a small portion." "To solidify the entire weapon, at least the size of a fist, a hundred pieces of divine gold would be needed." Wu Jiuling and Su Nan felt their scalps tingle upon hearing this. On the continent, even a thumb-sized piece of divine gold is priceless, let alone a hundred fist-sized pieces. Such a massive amount of resources would be hard to find even if the continent were emptied. Yet, a weapon that requires so much divine gold to condense would indeed be immensely powerful! Chang Qing wasted no time. Once the Heaven-Opening Axe was condensed, he exhaled, flames surged around him, and his inner power soared. Fiery red lines spread swiftly from the axe, linking together arcane patterns. Soon enough, the entire axe turned fiery red, resembling a burning sun. Chang Qing gripped the axe with both hands, raising it above into the sky, and then slashed down two divine trajectories. Endless luminescence erupted, making the sky-covering barrier tremble violently. Su Nan and Wu Jiuling focused intently. Although Chang Qing’s power was much weaker than Wu Jiuling’s, the effect was a hundred times greater! The two radiant paths intertwined in the void and struck fiercely at the sky-covering barrier. The axe light fell like a red-hot knife through butter, penetrating effortlessly. A fathomless gorge seemed to have directly pierced the barrier, opening into a new world. At this moment, bright light surged from the crack in the barrier. Primitive aura, completely different from the continent’s, continuously seeped out. Chang Qing and the others stared intently. Through the crack, they glimpsed a corner of the new world’s landscape. Yet, to their surprise, the world was blindingly white, filled with chaotic aura everywhere. Although complex auras emanated, there was no sound. The trio was baffled and wished to explore further. But unexpectedly, the thin crack abruptly closed on its own, and the massive fissure in the barrier quickly healed.
