Chapter 2177 The Expanse Of Void And Apprehension To Danger

The expanse of the void was overwhelming to look at, making one feel minuscule in front of it.

The vast darkness seemed all consuming, as if merely looking at it might end ones existence. It was unknown what was hidden in the void, for its plain darkness held things in open view that could threaten many.

One couldn't even see a single twinkle or sparkle in the void either. Unlike the silvery streaks of Spatial Energy that Lin Mu often saw in the ring, there were no such flashes of light.

This didn't mean that there was no Spatial energy here, it was still there. The difference was that it wasn't as concentrated, which actually made it more dangerous due to being invisible.

Lin Mu might not have any problems with that level of Spatial Energy, but for any immortal that was not on guard they might just get their flesh rendered by it. If they were lucky it could just be a small straight cut, but if they were unlucky it might mince and crush one's flesh into a paste.

The flow of Spatial Energy could be very dangerous and unless one could sense it, defending against it was highly difficult.

In contrast to the empty void, the Spatial Plane stood out greatly. With how close they were to it, the Spatial Plane looks almost as big as the void. But this was merely a matter of perspective. It was the same as thinking a mountain in front was bigger than the sun above.

Just because something was big nearby didn't mean the other things would be the same.

"This It really is bigger than the Dao Wind Empire." Crown Prince Feng Shun couldn't help but say.

"No it might actually be a lot more than just that." Ziran furrowed his brows. "Yeah, now that we're this close I can sense the spatial fluctuations properly This is at least as big as a third of the entire Rust Sky World." Lin Mu said feeling quite surprised.

From what Lin Mu had observed all these years, all the worlds had their own spatial fluctuations. Usually these were very faint and minute, making them impossible to sense unless one was a Spatial Master.

Many cultivators might not even sense the spatial fluctuations of the world they lived in, since they were too used to the background fluctuations. But one they encountered other planes and worlds, they would sense the difference.

Lin Mu could sense the background fluctuation a lot better and also found their intensity to be relatively stable. 'Spatial planes usually only have such stable spatial fluctuations when they've been in existence for a long time. And with how stable they are here along with their intensity, this place has certainly been here for at least half the time the Rust Sky World has been in existence.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

It wasn't often that the Spatial Planes could be in existence that long. This was due to the fact that the longer they existed the greater their chances of disintegration due to the natural erosion of the void. Most spatial planes would have to be protect by a barrier to prevent this.

But the larger a spatial plane was the more energy it would cost to protect it. Even if one set up a large array, it would still have to be powered by a source of energy.

Unlike a proper world that produced its own Qi, a Spatial Plane did not have the same capability.

That was in fact one of the bigger differences between a Spatial Plane and a proper world.

A real world generated its own Qi, thus allow it to sustain life on it naturally. But the same could not be said for a Spatial Plane.

A Spatial Plane could have Qi on it, but this was not generated by itself, but rather from some resource present on it, or being absorbed from somewhere else.

Most of the Qi of a Spatial Plane actually came from another world that was near it. There would be Spatial Channels that would absorb Qi for the sustenance of the spatial plane. These spatial channels would usually be tiny, but some could be big enough to act as entire Teleportation channels.

'It must have been a celestial that set up the barrier otherwise this plane would not have been able to exist this long.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

~shua~

The cage seemingly touched upon the barrier of the Spatial Plane as they finally entered it.

"Get ready!" Lin Mu warned.

~DANG~DANG~DANG~

As soon as he said that, the cage was hammered by a strong force. "What is. .h.i.tting us?" Min Ju asked unable to spot anything.

"It's wind!" Crown Prince Feng Shun sensed. "The winds are chaotic this far up, we need to descend quick or we might be thrown off the path!" "Follow the light, it'll show us the safer path through the sky." Lady Kang added as she exerted more Qi in powering the illusory compa.s.s.

Guidance of Pyxis was very helpful and Qiao De soon managed to keep them stable on the path. The group was very alert and watched out for any more danger that could be heading their way.

Which was actually plentiful.

"What's that?" Daoist Chu saw something. It was a large swathe of darkness that seemed to be moving on the ground. It easily covered an area of a few kilometer due to how prominent it was.

"Is that Death Aura?" Qiao De furrowed his brows.

Everyone tried to watch it closely but due to the distance they could not exactly recognize it. It wasn't until a minute later that they got closer did Lin Mu realize what it was.

His Spatial Perception was active when his eyes went wide in shock.

"That is not death aura Those are beasts!" Lin Mu said out loud.

"Beasts? There must be millions of them to look like that." Crown Process Shang said feeling surprised.
