Three days later, Li Xiaotian and the City Lord of Ultimate Bliss finally reached the depths of the battlefield, arriving at the place emitting the bright light.
It was a portal floating in the air, as large as a football field. At this moment, the boundless power of the Great Dao on the battlefield was being devoured by the portal, along with vast amounts of heavenly and earthly energy.
The portal was surrounded by terrifying and chaotic forces, forcing even Li Xiaotian and the City Lord of Ultimate Bliss to stop a thousand meters away, daring not to take another step forward.
Those terrifying powers made them feel a sense of crisis, a sense of impending doom.
Li Xiaotian was filled with shock. His gaze was fixed on the light gate in the sky, trying to see the scene within, but he failed. The light gate was like a door yet to be opened, a vast expanse of white, utterly impenetrable.
Concurrently, the terrifying energy fluctuations around him left him stunned. Any spatial rift, any gust of wind, gave him the feeling of being capable of instantly killing an invincible powerhouse.
"What's going on?" Li Xiaotian murmured, but then a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and his heart stirred with excitement.
He knew without a doubt that the world within the light gate was a small world, undoubtedly containing heaven-defying opportunities. After all, this light gate was created when that coffin collided.
Moreover, the light gate was currently consuming the power of the Great Dao and energy from the battlefield, clearly absorbing power.
The ancient battlefield was immeasurably vast, and the chaotic power of the Great Dao within was incalculable. When Li Xiaotian first entered the battlefield, he had harbored thoughts of secretly devouring this chaotic power of the Great Dao.
And now, all of it was being absorbed by the light gate.
"Mo Tian, it seems something extraordinary has appeared this time. I suspect the world within this light gate is definitely related to the great war of the past!"
The City Lord of Ultimate Bliss looked solemn, yet his eyes burned with fervor. Related to the ancient great war of the past, it was understood that whatever lay within would be incredibly precious.
Furthermore, this light gate was absorbing energy, or rather, the world within was absorbing energy. It had been sealed for countless years; even a blade of grass preserved to this day would possess heaven-defying effects.
"The outer danger zone is shrinking. In a few days, we will be able to reach the light gate," the City Lord of Ultimate Bliss said after sensing the surroundings.
Currently, the area outside the light gate was shrouded in terrifying power, but the good news was that these powers were weakening, and their range was shrinking. This way, even standing before the light gate would pose no danger.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, a ripple emanated from the sky, and the surrounding air temperature surged. In the sky, a fiery red figure appeared in everyone's vision.
"Fire God!" The City Lord of Ultimate Bliss's eyes narrowed sharply.
Simultaneously, the beings on the ground cried out in alarm. The Fire God had personally arrived, a high-level powerhouse making an appearance.
"Hmph!" A cold snort echoed, and instantly, terrifying pressure descended. Everyone felt an oppressive force like Mount Tai pressing down on them.
In the sky, the Fire God took a step towards the light gate.
"Boom!"
Instantly, the light gate erupted with blinding light. Following that, the surrounding energy surged violently, and space shattered into countless fragments. In the blink of an eye, several beings close to the light gate turned into dust without even a scream.
"Retreat!" The City Lord of Ultimate Bliss grabbed Li Xiaotian and retreated rapidly, his eyes filled with apprehension.
Li Xiaotian was also inwardly terrified. He realized that the Fire God intended to enter the world within the light gate, but was blocked by the gate itself, triggering a terrifying conflict between the two.
