In the end times, many children bring more blessings. I pick up a goddess every day.

Liu Yang walked onto the stone platform... opened the golden treasure chest... a fist-sized black bead lay quietly inside the treasure chest... a faint Netherworld energy flowed on the surface of the bead... it was the "Netherworld Pearl"

—This bead can absorb Netherworld energy and transform it into one's own spiritual power... It also provides immunity to all Netherworld toxins... It is a rare reward for passing through the Netherworld Purgatory layer...

He put the Nether Pearl into his storage bag... together with the Dream Core and the Ice and Fire Spirit Crystal...

At this moment...Su Qingyao's shadow suddenly appeared in the space...She looked at Liu Yang with eyes filled with shock and unwillingness...her voice trembled slightly: "You...you actually broke the Ten Courts of Hell Formation...This is impossible!"

Liu Yang smiled and said, "Nothing is impossible... On the next level... I will show you more surprises..."

Su Qingyao's shadow's face turned pale... She gritted her teeth and said, "The 81st floor is the 'Starry Sky Maze Layer'..."

The array is filled with star patterns that can distort space... and countless star beasts with "spatial abilities"... Even if you can break through the Netherworld Purgatory... you will definitely not be able to break through the Starry Sky Maze!" After saying this... the shadow dissipated in space...

The stone platform began to vibrate... Countless silver star patterns appeared at the entrance to the 81st floor... The star patterns flickered with a faint light... and emitted an aura that distorted space...

Liu Yang walked to the entrance... and injected his spiritual power into the star pattern... and deciphered the information within - the core of the Starry Sky Maze is the "Starry Sky Heart"... Only by finding and activating the Starry Sky Heart... can the spatial distortion of the Starry Sky be broken... and the Starry Sky Beasts will constantly interfere with those who attempt to enter... trying to trap them in the maze...

"Starry sky maze... Space beast..." Liu Yang clenched the Nether Pearl in his hand... his eyes flashing with excitement... He took a deep breath... and injected the energy of the Nether Pearl into his body... A black shield formed around him... immune to all the effects of space distortion...

Then... he stepped into the entrance of the 81st floor... his figure disappeared in the silver star pattern halo... leaving only the three-color energy remaining in the pure white space... telling the legend of the 80th floor...

Outside the Tower of Babel... Su Qingyao stared at Liu Yang's back in the crystal ball... her fingers tightly grasped the corner of his clothes... a hint of madness flashed in her eyes: "The 81st floor... I will make you die here!"

The Netherworld Purgatory: Liu Yang bravely breaks through the starry sky maze

The moment he stepped onto the 81st floor... Liu Yang felt the space around him suddenly twist... as if it were wrinkled by an invisible giant hand...

The once clear vision was instantly swallowed by the silver light in the sky... The ground beneath my feet was no longer solid... but a void shimmering with faint starlight... Every step I took felt like stepping on a flowing galaxy... If I wasn't careful, I would fall into endless darkness...

"This is the Starry Sky Maze..." Liu Yang steadied himself... pushing the energy of the Nether Pearl to its limit... the black shield pressed tightly against his body... isolating the force of space distortion from outside...

But the next second... the void suddenly rippled... Three silver star patterns shot out from the void like living things... heading straight for his throat... The edges of the star patterns flashed with sharp cold light... Wherever they passed... the void was actually scratched with tiny cracks... It was obvious that it contained the power to tear through space...

Liu Yang's eyes flashed... He dodged the star pattern sideways... and condensed a stream of icy energy in his right hand... The snow-white cold energy transformed into a slender ice blade in the air... and slashed towards the star pattern with precision...

With a crisp "ding" sound... the moment the ice blade collided with the star pattern... ripples appeared on the surface of the star pattern... then they receded like the tide... merging back into the void...

"The star pattern can hide on its own... and can launch a surprise attack at any time..." Liu Yang's heart became even more vigilant... He spread his mental power with all his strength... trying to capture the trajectory of the star pattern... but this layer of space seemed endless... His mental power extended for dozens of miles... and he could still only see twinkling stars in the sky... and the occasional afterimage of the star pattern emerging in the void...

Even more troublesome was... a low roar could be heard from the depths of the void from time to time... the roar carried the frequency of space vibrations... every time it sounded, Liu Yang's mental power would be temporarily disturbed...

"Roar--"

A deafening roar suddenly came from the void on the left... Then... a huge black shadow suddenly shattered the void... and pounced towards Liu Yang... This strange beast was covered with silver scales...

Its scales were covered in fine star patterns... Its scarlet eyes were like two burning sparks... The strangest thing about it was its limbs—every swing could tear through the void...

Leaving behind a series of black space cracks.....it's obviously a space beast with the ability of "space jumping"...

"Star Claw Beast!" Liu Yang had seen this strange beast before from the information he had deciphered from the star patterns... Its sharp claws could easily shred the spiritual shields of a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage... It could even launch surprise attacks by leaping through space...

Before the Clawless Beast could get close... Liu Yang injected the energy of the Hellfire Spirit Crystal into his left hand... A ball of crimson Hellfire ignited in his palm... The flames transformed into a giant fire lion in the air... It opened its huge mouth and bit towards the Clawless Beast...

A trace of disdain flashed in the eyes of the Cracked Claw Beast... Its massive body suddenly twisted in mid-air... and it vanished from the spot... The Fire Lion's attack was empty... Its flames fell into the void... and only a faint ripple was stirred up...

Liu Yang's heart tightened... Just as he was about to teleport... A piercing chill suddenly came from the void behind him - the Clawless Beast had actually used space to jump around and got behind him... Its sharp claws, with the power to tear through space... scratched towards his back...

"Good timing!" Liu Yang had been prepared... He instantly released the energy of the Ice Soul Crystal... and formed a thick layer of Ice Soul Armor around his body... At the same time... he turned abruptly... and slashed the ice blade in his right hand towards the claws of the Clawless Beast...

A loud clang echoed through the void... The moment the ice blade and sharp claw collided... Ice chips and scale fragments flew everywhere... A shallow blood mark appeared on the claw of the Cracked Claw Beast... and a crack appeared on the Ice Soul Armor...

The Clawless Beast felt pain... and let out an angry roar... It launched another space jump... Its figure kept flashing in the void... and left dozens of afterimages... and simultaneously attacked Liu Yang from different directions...

Liu Yang injected the energy of the Dream Core into his mental power... A pale blue halo enveloped his entire body... Using the laws of dreams, he captured the true trajectory of the Split Claw Beast... Soon... he locked onto the Split Claw Beast's true form from the afterimages in the sky - before each space jump...

The star patterns around it will flash once... This is where the flaw lies...

"Now!" Liu Yang seized the moment when the Cracked Claw Beast leaped through space... and fused the energy of the Ice and Fire Spirit Crystal into a double blade of ice and fire... The double blade transformed into a stream of light in the air... and accurately slashed towards the Cracked Claw Beast's body... The Cracked Claw Beast had no time to dodge... and was hit in the abdomen by the double blade... The silver scales were instantly melted by the Hellfire... The cold air of the Ice Soul followed the wound and froze its internal organs...

The Clawless Beast let out a shrill scream... its massive body struggled for a few moments in the air... before ultimately turning into a pile of silver powder... and dissipating into the galaxy...

But before Liu Yang could catch his breath... a dense roar suddenly rang out from all around the void... dozens of black shadows rushed out from the void... in addition to the previous Star Claw Beast...

There's also the snake-like "Starry Sky Strangler"—its body can wrap around space...trapping its prey in an independent spatial cage; and the "Starry Sky Phantom Beast" with the ability of "spatial illusion"—it can create an illusion identical to itself...the illusion also has the ability to attack...it's hard to tell the real from the fake...

"Looks like I'm being targeted..." Liu Yang clenched the Netherworld Pearl in his hand... The black shield surged again... Covering an area of ​​ten feet around him... He unleashed the energy of the Dream Core with all his might... A pale blue dream halo spread out... Trying to dispel the illusion created by the Starry Sky Phantom Beast...

But these illusions were incredibly lifelike... they could even imitate the roar of a split-claw beast and the entanglement of a strangler python... In just a few moments... Liu Yang was surrounded by dozens of strange beasts... He couldn't tell which ones were real... and which ones were illusions...

"We must find a way to distinguish the real from the fake..." Liu Yang forced himself to calm down. He remembered the previous battle with the Star Claw Beast. The star patterns around the real beast would flicker as it attacked. The illusion might not have this feature.

He focused his mental energy on his eyes...using the dream laws of the Dream Core...trying to see through the true nature of the illusion...

Soon... he discovered the difference - the star patterns around the real star beast were flashing with a steady light... while the star patterns on the illusion were dim... and no energy was flowing...

He locked onto a figure flashing with a steady light... It was a Starry Sky Strangler Python... It was entwining space... Trying to trap him in a cage...

Liu Yang condensed the flames of the Hellfire into a spear of fire... and hurled it fiercely at the strangled python's vital point...

The flaming spear pierced through the void... accurately striking the strangler python's vital point... The infernal flames instantly spread throughout its body... The strangler python let out a painful hiss... its body, entangled in space, gradually loosened... and eventually turned into powder and dissipated...

As a real beast was destroyed... several of the surrounding illusions also disappeared...

Liu Yang was delighted... He continued to use the same method to distinguish the real from the fake... The ice and fire blades kept swinging in the void... Every attack could hit the real beast...

But there are too many alien beasts in the sky... As soon as we kill one... a new one will appear from the void... What's more troublesome is...
