Wayfarer-Chapter 1058: The Black Holes Might

A terrifying gravitational pull emanated from the portal that led directly into the black hole.

Nearby dark matter was violently dragged into the portal, creating ripples of light and shadow as space itself seemed to warp. The moon, not far away, trembled as if it might be pulled from its orbit. The atmosphere of the planet behind them also shook violently, with countless air currents forming storms that were being sucked into the depths of space.

The gravitational force was overwhelming. Even Madam Rouge didn't dare approach the portal.

Meanwhile, the Superior's attacks grew fiercer and fiercer. Each strike was like a waterfall of light and divine power. She shattered the Shangqing Grandmaster's sword techniques, destroyed the Yuqing Grandmaster's heart sword, and even forced the Taiqing Grandmaster to retreat. Her power was overwhelming, her might unparalleled.

The Shangqing Grandmaster gaped, "She's far too strong!"

The Yuqing Grandmaster called out, "Taiqing, Shangqing and I will stop her. You destroy that portal!"

The Yuqing and Shangqing Grandmasters struck simultaneously, sending purple heart swords and blue sword techniques at the Superior.

The Superior sneered again. She deflected the purple heart swords with one hand and the blue sword techniques with the other, forcing both grandmasters back.

The Taiqing Grandmaster took advantage of the opportunity to rush toward the portal. He unleashed a powerful palm strike, but the black hole's gravitational pull was simply too strong. The technique was sucked into the black hole and vanished without a trace, leaving everyone's expressions grim.

The Superior laughed loudly. "I chose this arena as the battlefield to give you the chance to fight me together. If you're not willing to do so, forget it. I'll destroy the planet first!"

The Superior shot toward the planet down below.

"Hold it!" the Taiqing Grandmaster roared.

With a flick of his horsetail whisk, countless silver threads lashed out toward the Superior. At the same time, the other two grandmasters rushed to intercept her.

They couldn't afford to be careless. Even the slightest mistake would allow the Superior to strike the planet below.

With a loud crash, the Superior fought the three Qing Grandmasters alone. The violent energy from their clash created storms and cascades of light, dazzling and brilliant.

Despite being outnumbered, the Superior held the upper hand.

The Taiqing Grandmaster shouted in disbelief, "How have you regained so much strength in such a short time?"

"You are but frogs in a well. What would you know of my methods?"

With another loud crash, she forced the three Qing Grandmasters to retreat once more.

The three Qing Grandmasters' expressions turned grim. They were far stronger now than they had been in the white life hidden realm, where they had managed to suppress the Superior's main body. Yet now, they seemed no match for her. Just how many tricks did the Superior have up her sleeve?

Meanwhile, Madam Rouge had reached a distant starship.

She destroyed it with a punch, but even with one less beam, the black hole remained intact.

"It wasn't enough?" Madam Rouge frowned.

She shot toward the second starship.

From afar, the Superior sneered. "Do you think destroying these fifty starships will allow you to destabilize this portal? How laughable!"

She issued a command. All the starships stopped firing their stellar cannons and began to rush into the depths of space, far away from the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Madam Rouge, who had been rushing toward her second starship, whirled around in shock. "How can this be? What's supplying the energy for keeping this portal active?"

The Taiqing Grandmaster's brows furrowed. "A massive quantity of energy is required to maintain this portal—there's no doubt about it. There must be starships on the other side providing energy to stabilize it."

"What do we do now?" the Shangqing Grandmaster asked.

The Taiqing Grandmaster scowled. "We'll have to head into the portal and destroy the starships on the other side.

"But that would mean entering the black hole! Will we be able to survive?"

The Taiqing Grandmaster frowned, deep in thought.

The Yuqing Grandmaster muttered, "If the black hole really is that dangerous, how can the fifty starships on the other side survive unscathed?"

The Superior laughed coldly. "A detailed analysis, but who's to say it's right? My methods are beyond your ken."

The battle resumed anew.

Meanwhile, Madam Rouge caught up to a starship and tried to store it in her world of the heart—only for it to self-destruct with a loud explosion, creating a massive fireball that forced her to retreat.

The Superior glanced toward her and sneered. "As if I'd let you steal my starships!"

Madam Rouge's eyes flashed with anger, but she quickly moved onto the next one.

Even if she couldn't capture the starships, destroying them would do.

The starships continued to scatter in all directions, but Madam Rouge's speed was unmatched. She chased down one starship after another and destroyed them one by one.

Bright flashes of light erupted across the void.

After destroying over forty starships, Madam Rouge finally stopped. The remaining few had fled into the darkness, where they hid among comets and disappeared from sight.

After the intense chase, Madam Rouge rushed back to the main battlefield.

The black hole was still voraciously devouring everything around it as the moon itself was slowly being pulled from its orbit.

Countless clouds and wisps of matter from the planet's atmosphere were being dragged in, too.

The three Qing Grandmasters, still engaged against the Superior, were unable to do anything to the portal.

At that moment, Liu Miaoyin and the Divine Emperor likewise appeared in the void. Projections of the nine-colored tree appeared behind them, drawing vast quantities of energy into their bodies.

Liu Miaoyin waved her hand. Countless black lotuses materialized in the air, covering the planet's atmosphere in a grid-like pattern.

"Seal," Liu Miaoyin intoned.

The black lotuses formed a barrier that stabilized the planet's atmosphere and resisted the black hole's pull.

Meanwhile, the Divine Emperor flew up to the moon and rang her bell. With a loud boom, golden ripples enveloped the moon and shielded it from the black hole's gravitational force.

Both women were frantically trying to figure out how to counter the black hole's pull.

"Hold on a little longer. Let me try something!" Madam Rouge shouted.

As she waved her hand, countless peach blossoms materialized into a clone of herself. With a flick of her wrist, that clone charged into the portal—and, immediately swallowed up by the darkness, vanished without a trace.

The Divine Emperor shouted, "Any luck?"

Madam Rouge shook her head in dismay. "It's gone. I can't sense it anymore..."

The Divine Emperor and Liu Miaoyin frowned. They each manifested an avatar of their own out of shadows and black lotuses and sent them toward the portal. The black hole sucked them in—and then they vanished for good.

The women gritted their teeth in frustration.

The Superior called out disdainfully, "Why don't you try heading in with your main bodies?"

The three women glowered, but ignored her.

The Shangqing Grandmaster suddenly exclaimed, "The portal is growing—as is the suction!"

The other cultivators blanched.

The Superior laughed out loud. "Indeed. You think you can seal the planet's atmosphere and stabilize the moon? Don't worry. Soon, the gravitational pull will grow strong enough to swallow the entire moon, and then the entire planet. Haha!"

She forced the three Qing Grandmasters back again, but they couldn't afford to back down. They glared at her and continued to fight.

The Shangqing Grandmaster frowned. "Where is Xiao Nanfeng? Why hasn't he joined the fight?"

The three women glanced at each other. Madam Rouge finally replied, "Nanfeng is still in seclusion and cannot join us for the moment. Allow me to assist you."

As Madam Rouge flew over, the Superior suddenly sent a palm strike at her. The attack was infused with some strange, sinister power that locked down the void and prevented her from escaping.

Madam Rouge's eyes widened. She countered with a palm strike of her own, but hers was quickly obliterated. The Superior's palm strike continued unabated as it headed straight for her.

"How powerful," Madam Rouge murmured.

With a loud crash, her qi barrier shattered. Right as the Superior's palm was about to hit her, Liu Miaoyin and the Divine Emperor suddenly showed up, joining forces to block the Superior's palm together. However, all three women were sent flying thousands of meters.

The Superior laughed. "Come at me together. The next time, you won't survive. Haha!"

The three women seethed, but there was little they could do. The Superior was simply too strong for them.

The Yuqing Grandmaster asked, "Just what is Xiao Nanfeng doing? At this rate, once the black hole grows large enough, no one will be able to stop the planet's destruction. What's the point of continuing to cultivate now?"

Before the three women could respond, the Superior cackled again. "He's barely able to sustain himself now, isn't he?"

"What?" the three Qing Grandmasters cried out.

"He absorbed my main body to enhance his physical strength, but that was his death sentence. His soul and body are now mismatched, and his body is burning his soul up. He's not getting stronger—in fact, he's losing strength with every moment. Isn't that right?"

The three Qing Grandmasters glanced grimly at Madam Rouge, Liu Miaoyin, and the Divine Emperor.

Though the three women were taken by surprise, none of them revealed Xiao Nanfeng's current condition. Madam Rouge replied diplomatically, "There was such a danger in the past, but Nanfeng is in the midst of resolving it. He'll be with us soon enough."

The Superior roared in laughter. "Resolving it? How laughable! It's a problem that even I wouldn't be able to solve. How would he succeed?"

The Superior's confident tone and the three women's reluctance to reveal Xiao Nanfeng's condition made the three Qing Grandmasters uneasy. The three Qing Grandmasters couldn't help but believe the Superior's assessment. Was Xiao Nanfeng truly done for?

The situation was dire. If they delayed any longer, not only would they fail to defeat the Superior, but the planet would also be destroyed. They could flee, but if they did, the entire planet would be doomed.

After a moment of silence, the Taiqing Grandmaster said, "I don't intend to give up yet. I shall enter the black hole and destroy the portal from the other side. Whether I succeed or fail, it will sever my karmic ties to this planet. Will you two join me?"
