Chapter 1856: To Exploration Grounds (1/2)

Eternal embarked right on schedule with more than ten thousand experts on board.

Because this was the only s.h.i.+p heading to Remote Wildland, its journey would span across all the known s.p.a.ce of Exploration Grounds. It would also stop at places like Hope Corner and Imperial Change City. These are the top locations for adventurers so many qualified cultivators wanted to ride this s.h.i.+p.

Outside of its route, this s.h.i.+p was also the safest of them all. The earlier advertis.e.m.e.nt wasn’t a lie. It was indeed created by emperors and Ancient G.o.ds so it could withstand a similar level of a.s.sault.

Moreover, no one dared to have any ideas about Eternal. There were professional robbers in Exploration Grounds but they were smart enough to not mess with this s.h.i.+p. Rumor has it that several emperors and Ancient G.o.ds were joint-owners of the s.h.i.+p. This was their transportation method in the area.

The captain of the s.h.i.+p declared to the guests that as long as they were on the s.h.i.+p, it would safely let them travel through Exploration Grounds and bring them back without a single injury.

This safety made many cultivators treat it as a spectating vessel. They didn’t venture outside and only stay on the s.h.i.+p to check out the sceneries here.

“See you!” As the s.h.i.+p was leaving, the pa.s.sengers waved goodbye to their friends and family members.

The people back at port continued to wave towards Eternal’s departing figure for a long time. Because no one knew the result of adventuring in Exploration Grounds. This was a place where emperors have died. This might be the last time they could see their friends. Some of the pa.s.sengers didn’t want to leave but the temptation of the adventure was too much to take.

This flying continent had a frightening speed despite its size. This was indeed the velocity at the imperial level.

Of course, in a stricter sense, it was still slower than emperors. Nevertheless, it was the fastest one in this s.p.a.ce zone.

In just half a day, it had entered Exploration Grounds.

“We have arrived at Exploration Grounds. Esteemed guests, please get ready. Without the right conditions, please don’t cultivate on the s.h.i.+p and absorb chaos energy. These chaos energies have been refined after entering the s.h.i.+p but we can’t guarantee that they are the same as our chaos energy. If anyone forces the issue, qi deviation might occur. We do not take responsibility for this.” The workers quickly reminded the guests.

“Look, Exploration Grounds!” The first-timers were especially excited and rushed to the front of the deck.

There was a thick fog ahead, lowering all visibility. Even the stars became dimmed in the sky.

There were many strange scenes inside the fog. One could see something resembling clouds up above; it looked both tangible and illusory at the same time. There were black lands ahead as well. It gave the feeling of an abyss as if the moment one stepped on it, they would fall down towards eternal d.a.m.nation. Hidden nebulas were around too. They looked so far away as if they were not part of this epoch. They were s.h.i.+ning to this place from an older epoch, real yet so distant…

These scenes gave the spectators a strange feeling. This looked to be a mix of reality and illusion. There was no way to tell real from fake. This resulted in a very creepy feeling. There could be fierce beasts and devils slumbering in Exploration Grounds. Approach closer and be devoured by them!

The entire place was filled with chaos energy. Primordial chaos was everywhere as if this was a world that has yet to be open and expanded.

However, experienced cultivators would find that the chaos energy here was different from the one outside. It had a black mist to it. Perhaps the energy here had changed after the long pa.s.sage of time.

“Such thick energy, wouldn’t training here have an amazing effect?” A youth excitedly said after seeing the thick layers of chaos energy.

It was even denser than the ancestral grounds of imperial lineages.

“Silly boy, you can’t train with the chaos energy here.” His junior shook his head: “Even the chaos energy that had been purified by the s.h.i.+p won’t do either. It’s not suitable for cultivation. Anyone who does it for a long time would be affected. The speed might be fast but some problems remain. A light case would be qi deviation; a serious case would be death.”
