Chapter 672: Respawn
Kai and Abigail gasped at the same time.Their eyes flashed open violently, and for one terrifying breath, both of them reacted like people still pinned beneath the claws of that beast. Kai’s hand shot to his chest instinctively, fingers pressing against the place where the claw had punched through his body, while Abigail’s hand tightened around the hilt of her sword as cold intent surged around her for half a second before she forced it back down. Their breathing was rough, almost ragged, and the memory of death still clung to them with disgusting clarity.Pain, pressure, blood in the throat and the feeling of life draining too fast for the body to fight back then nothing.Kai lowered his head slowly and stared at his chest.No wound, blood or torn flesh.His clothes were whole too, as if the array had restored not only their bodies but the moment before failure itself. The silver blood inside him flowed steadily, strong and alive, without any trace of the beast’s destructive Qi. Abi
Chapter 671: First Death
Two days later, Kai’s eyes flashed open.The cold around him cracked.For a moment, the black glacier domain trembled as if something beneath it had awakened. Frost clung to Kai’s hair, his shoulders, and his robes, and a thin layer of dark ice had formed over half his body, but when his eyelids lifted, silver light flashed through his pupils before disappearing just as quickly. The frozen pressure that had been crushing his blood and marrow for two straight days loosened slightly, not because the training ground had become weaker, but because his body had learned how to push back against it better than before.Kai inhaled slowly.His silver blood moved like a cold river beneath his skin, stronger and smoother than it had been when he first sat down. Every heartbeat felt heavier, deeper, and more controlled. The cold that had tried to slow him now moved through his body like a sharpening stone. It still hurt, of course. It hurt terribly. But useful pain always had a different taste.
Chapter 670: Pain That Gives Results
Hearing Kai talk about compensation made Abigail sigh.Not a small sigh either.It was the kind of tired sigh that came from spending too much time around someone whose first reaction to danger was not fear, caution, or even proper planning, but wondering how much profit could be squeezed out of the situation before it killed him. She looked at Kai’s face, saw the faint excitement in his eyes as he stared at the vast world ahead, and for a moment she genuinely pitied this place.The array world did not know what had entered it.Zora had created it to train, pressure, sharpen, and force them into becoming stronger through repeated battles, death, recovery, and cultivation. It was meant to be a furnace. A terrifying place where everything they faced would be at least two times stronger than them, and where comfort would be punished as soon as it appeared. Yet Abigail had the strange feeling that Kai was not looking at it like a prisoner looking at a torture chamber.He was looking at i
Chapter 669: Two Times Stronger
Zora then added, “Anything you obtain here will leave with you when the time comes.”Kai, who had already been standing there with the face of a man trying not to offend the only person who could increase his sentence by another few centuries, suddenly lifted his head. His eyes sharpened instantly.“Anything?” he asked.Zora looked at him.Kai cleared his throat and immediately adjusted his expression into something more respectful. “I am only asking for academic understanding.”Abigail gave him a side glance. “You mean treasure understanding.”“Resources are part of academics.”“No, they’re not.”“They are when I’m studying how to survive.”Zora ignored their little exchange and continued, “Anything you earn here, anything you take, anything you forge, refine, tame, steal from enemies who deserve it, or obtain through opportunity will remain with you after you leave. This world is not an illusion in the simple sense. It is a constructed cultivation domain tied to the time array. The
Chapter 668: The Price of Time
Soon enough, they arrived at another place.The first thing Kai noticed was the Qi.It was abundant, heavy and alive.It pressed against the skin like warm water, slipping into the pores naturally without needing to be pulled too hard, and the quality of it was not much different from the place they had just left. In fact, if he closed his eyes and ignored the absence of frozen wind, the environment still carried that same oppressive richness of a higher cultivation land, the kind of Qi that made Earth feel like a starving field beside a spiritual ocean.The only difference was that there was no ice or strange terrifying pressure sleeping somewhere deep in the white wilderness.Instead, they stood in what looked like an ordinary but vast cultivation land. Tall mountains rose in the distance, green valleys stretched between them, rivers flowed with faint spiritual mist, and ancient trees covered the land like a living sea. The sky above was clear but strangely deep, almost too perfect
Chapter 667: No Time Left
Just as Kai expected, the people chasing them didn’t dare go deeper into the cold forest.At first, the group behind them still rushed forward with killing intent thick enough to stain the wind. Their auras pushed through the blizzard like angry flames refusing to die, and their voices occasionally echoed through the trees, threatening slaughter, vengeance, sect punishment, and all those serious things cultivators loved shouting when they were too far away to actually hit anyone. But the deeper Kai and Abigail rode into the frozen forest on the thunder bird’s back, the slower those people became. Their speed dropped, formation tightened and their anger remained, but their courage began to thin under the strange pressure hidden within the forest.Kai glanced back once and smiled.“They stopped pushing.”Abigail turned slightly, her eyes narrowing as she sensed the distant pursuers. They were still there, but the gap between them was no longer shrinking. In fact, some of them had alre
