Chapter 142: A Mysterious Dimension in the Starry Sky (1/2)
SHEW!
In the blink of an eye, Nie Tian flashed into the Heaven Gate.
Dazzling, multicolored light constantly whizzed by him as he felt himself being pulled by an irresistible force, traveling forward at a extremely high speed.
At the same time, many unknown magical symbols flashed past him like shooting stars.
Because of the incredible speed at which he was traveling, Nie Tian couldn’t get a clear look at the magical symbols that flashed by.
However, from what his eyes had captured, he believed that most of them were written in foreign language that he didn’t understand, with only a small portion being the masterpieces of human ancient Qi warriors.
His senses told him that he only soared within that dazzling space tunnel for several dozen seconds.
Shortly thereafter, he was overwhelmed by a squeezing force, without forewarning of any kind.
He suddenly grew dizzy, and was unable to see the things around him. His body seemed to have turned into flowing light that was thrown into an ice-cold mysterious land.
BANG!
He landed heavily on the ground, tumbling head over heels a few times over before he could gradually stop the momentum.
He opened his eyes and looked up. All he could see was a sky full of bright stars.
In his eyes, those stars were incomparably clear. They twinkled while releasing a cold, desolate light.
Some of them seemed extremely far away and only looked as big as grains of sand from where he stood.
Meanwhile, others seemed quite close to him, and were the size of grapes in his eyes.
Within the ice-cold river of stars, there was no sun or moon, only the brilliant stars that adorned the curtain of the night.
“I must be outside the Realm of Flame Heaven…” he muttered. Looking away from the sky, he turned around and measured up his surroundings.
He immediately discovered that the place he landed in was an enormous prismatic rock that was floating within the river of stars.
The rock seemed to be five or six miles long, and extended quite a ways off into the distance.
Further off, there were even more strange, enormous rocks that were floating within the river of stars. From the look of it, they probably had been that way for thousands of years.
The shapes of the enormous rocks were all different. Some of them were connected by slender stone paths and some weren’t.
After looking around for awhile, he discovered that there were thousands of giant stones that were the same size as the one that he was on, but that was only what his eyes could take in.
Perhaps, there were even more rocks beyond the ones he could see.
“A dimension full of meteors?” he muttered while releasing a wisp of psychic awareness to observe his surroundings even more carefully.
In the area where his psychic awareness could cover, he didn’t sense any auras of life, which meant that… there was no one in the vicinity.
He was surprised. “There’s no one anywhere near me. This seems to be quite different than the trial within the Green Illusion dimension.”
When he participated in the trial of the Green Illusion dimension, he was already with An Ying and the others from the Spiritual Treasure sect immediately after stepping into the Green Illusion dimension via the secret dimension gate. Therefore, he had been with companions and gained a rough understanding of the territory from An Ying the moment the Green Illusion dimension trial started.
However, now…
When he passed through the Heaven Gate, the mysterious power had separated everyone.
Just like him, the other disciples of the seven sects from the Realm of Flame Heaven had most likely landed on different meteors.
All of a sudden, anxiety regarding the safety of Li Fan, Liu Yan, and An Shiyi rose in his heart.
If they were unluckily sent to the same areas as the Greater Heaven stage experts from the other realms, they could be instantly killed.
WHOOSH!
An surprisingly cold gale blew over from the icy river of stars.
“This is so damn cold!”
When the cold wind blew past, he even felt his flesh turn a bit stiff and his hair and eyebrows form a bit of frost on them.
He hurriedly channeled his spiritual power to resist the coldness.
At that time, he had another startling discovery: there wasn’t the slightest bit of spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in the air that he could use!
All he could sense in the air was coldness, and not a single bit of spiritual Qi could be pulled into the vortex of spiritual power in his spiritual sea.
This meant that if he wanted to obtain spiritual power within this ice-cold mysterious land, the only option he had was to cultivate with the help of spirit stones.
Without spirit stones, he wouldn’t be able to replenish the spiritual power that he expended.
