The Greatest Disciple of the Evil Sect

Chapter 51:- The Dark Space

Deep inside the inner regions of the star fall jungle, where no hunter dared to even tread foot was a vast mountain range filled with powerful demonic beasts and mystical plants and trees.

This was the deepest sector of the star fall jungle and also the most forbidden place around this region. The reason for it being a prohibited land was because anyone that set foot inside the innermost region never returned alive and even if they did, they would return deranged and mad.

Because of such reasons, the deepest region of the star fall jungle was considered a forbidden land.

Currently, inside a very inconspicuous cave, the old man with unusual eyes was looking at the ceiling as he murmured under his breath "So he left huh".

After staring at the ceiling for a while, he shifted his attention back to the body of the young man. An expression of frown could be seen hanging on his aged face.

"This kind of recovery ability is unbelievable; it is on par with the Heavenly Star Reformation constitution that is said to be unbelievably rare. However, how is it possible for this brat to possess such incredible regenerative abilities? As far as I can see this brat is extremely normal... wait what is that? H-How can this be?".

At the end of his sentence, the tone of the old man contained some astonishment.

Unaware of the old man's conundrum, Yang Chen who was floating in a space of endless darkness slowly opened his eyes. His body felt tired and it seemed like he had been asleep for quite a while.

It took a few seconds but his dazed eyes finally started gaining some clarity.

"Where am I?" there was only endless darkness here no matter where he looked.

Yang Chen tried to move his body but even that seemed impossible. He could neither get up nor move just simply float around in this endless nothingness.

"Wait, I remember fighting that elder after that... I collapsed!! Then does that mean that I have died?"

Yang Chen felt a headache coming. If he was dead, then where was he? What is this place, is it the afterlife?

Many thoughts crossed Yang Chen's mind. The second life that he got after a stroke of fate, the life without any terminal illness that he yearned for so much while lying on top of that hospital bed, ended so abruptly.

It would be a lie to say that he did not have any regret. But in this endless darkness, even this did not last long. After a chain of depression and self-loathing, Yang Chen fell silent. In this endless darkness, he simply floated around.

Just as he was starting to give up and close his eyes, he saw a light coming from somewhere in the far distance. Instinctively, he started floating towards that direction and that small light soon became brighter and brighter.

At first, it seemed like the sun but as yang chen approached closer, it turned out to be something that washed all the colours away from his face. He felt all the hairs in his body stand on end and he was petrified.

The thing that he was getting closer to, and the thing that emitted light in this endless darkness was the surrounding gas of a massive black hole. Or something that resembled one.

"W-W-What was going on?" Yang Chen tried to back down, as a human it was an instinctive action. However, at this moment he felt like the space around him had become stagnant and he could no longer go back.

He tried to float back several times but all in vain. The only path seemed to be forward but Yang Chen felt like if he proceeded any further he would be swept in the gravitational force of that massive black hole and perish.

However it was not up to him to proceed forward or not, the flow simply took him towards it. This was also when Yang Chen realised that he had been moving towards the black hole all along, just that he had been under the illusion that he was in the control of direction he was floating towards.

How much time had passed? Yang Chen slowly inched forward towards that black hole and realised how massive it was. He was still so far away from it yet it almost covered his whole vision.

"What going on?" at this moment Yang Chen felt like his body had suddenly come to a stop. Before he could ponder over why he had suddenly stopped, he heard a sound inside his head that he was so much familiar with.

[DING... Installation completed. Starting Greedvil System. Calculating values.. decompressing data].

"This..." There was no doubt, this was the notification alert from the Greedvil system which had fused with him.

If the Greedvil system was still working then does that mean that he was still alive?

"Amon" Yang Chen called; however, no matter how many times he called the name of that fellow he never responded.

"Can he not hear me?" Yang Chen wondered. In any case, it was a good thing that he was not dead, but if he wasn't dead, then where is this place and why was he in this endless dark space with a blackhole in front of him?

"Right... Menu" he called out the menu he was so familiar with, but to his utter surprise, the menu didn't appear in its usual way. Instead, it was displayed on that massive black hole.

Yes, the window displayed on the surface of that black hole was the Menu he was so familiar with. However, to have appeared there of all places, Yang Chen was completely gobsmacked.

Usually, he would question about such abnormalities to Amon but that tiny demon was nowhere to be seen.

Yang Chen took a few deep breath and composed his mind, be that as it may, the menu that he wanted to see at least appeared in front of him no matter where or in which form.

"Let's see if I can get any clue as to where I am right now. All the options are still there, most of them are still unavailable as usual. Oh!! What is this? The [Map] has opened?"

One of the options on the menu, the [Map] which was previously unavailable since the moment yang chen reincarnated in this world had become accesible.
