Chapter 2022 Improved Spatial Perception
Lin Mu tried to rack his mind for answers, but still couldn't figure out what method he had used.
"I never expected your first time getting drunk would be this intense." A voice said in a surprised tone.
"Senior!" Lin Mu did intend to ask Xukong later, but was happy that he had awakened on his own. "To have a breakthrough while drunk I can safely say you've done one of the most insane things an immortal can do It's not even an Immortal specializing in the Dao of Wine You're not an Immortal of the drunken path either." Xukong spoke, confusing Lin Mu a bit. "Still, you've done an astounding thing." He said, this time in a praising tone.
Lin Mu felt happy due to Senior Xukong's praise but also wished to know just how he had done this. Since he had no memory of himself, he would have to rely on Xukong to show him.
"Do you know how I did it though, Senior Xukong?" Lin Mu asked.
"I do." Just as Lin Mu had thought, Xukong did have an answer. "It seems like you've managed to progress in your ability to manipulate s.p.a.ce." He said.
"Manipulate s.p.a.ce Hmm" Hearing that was enough to give Lin Mu a hint of what he might have done. "Is it related to the Spatial Dimension that the Tribulations come from?" he asked.
"Indeed. Your ring grants you the ability to open Spatial Rifts, this you already know and have done. But the same principle can be applied to the dimensions that the Tribulations come from. You also know that an Immortal can voluntarily trigger an Immortal Tribulation if they wish for it.
But that does not happen immediately. There are many signs and changes along with phenomena that present themselves before the Tribulation takes place. And unless one is at the end of their longevity and is going to trigger the tribulation naturally, a rift to these dimensions does not open up.
However, in your case When you have the ability to open the rifts, you manage to do that, but with the Tribulation Dimension." Xukong explained.
A normal person would never be able to see or touch it. But Lin Mu very well could.
If he wanted to touch it right in front of him, he could and if he wanted to touch it hundreds of meters away he could as well.
Such were the properties of the Fabric of s.p.a.ce, and unless one had an affinity to the s.p.a.ce, it was hard to understand or comprehend.
But now that Lin Mu was looking at it all, he saw the various spatial nodes that looked different than before. Previously all the Spatial nodes that Lin Mu saw were black in color and appeared like small dots that kept on moving with a few being stable.
Their position changed from time to time, and it was hard to track them.
But now, among the small black dots, there were other colored dots mixed in too. Though they were mainly of four colors now: Purple, Azure, Blue and Yellow.
'So these are the spatial nodes that can open a rift into the Tribulation Dimension' Lin Mu thought upon seeing them. "But why are there only four colors? If each of these belong to an element, then where are the Wood, Fire and Earth Elemental ones?" He wondered.
"You won't see those." Xukong replied. "They have forever closed themselves to you since you've already overcome the Immortal Tribulation of those elements." He revealed.
"I see But even if I overcame them, should they still be there?" Lin Mu was doubtful. "I mean, the Dimension exists and so should their spatial nodes. If not for me, for other people at least." He expressed his confusion.
"You are correct. They indeed still exist." Xukong agreed. "But they simply are not visible to you anymore. If you wish to see them again, you'll have to improve your Spatial Perception further. After all, the tribulation is sentient and has its own will. It can choose whether to appear to someone or not." He explained.
"I see Guess that'll be another achievement for the future." Lin Mu said thinking this was it for now.
