Chapter 142: A Mysterious Dimension in the Starry Sky (2/2)
CRACKLE!
His teeth were chattering as he unceasingly drew out spiritual power to run warm currents up and down his body.
An hour later, the ice-cold wind finally stopped.
However, he found that he had used up 20% of his spiritual power within such a short time.
He stood where he was, dumbstruck.
“Can the gravity here also be insanely strong?”
He was very well aware that an excessive gravity could also be an extremely strong load on his body.
If the gravity in this place was as strong as the mysterious land that the Blood Core had brought him to, he feared that he wouldn’t be able to move about freely, much less temper himself.
With suspicion in mind, he decided to see if he could jump up.
WHOOSH!
He rose ten meters into the air!
“The gravity here is much weaker than the Realm of Flame Heaven!”
After landing, he softly tapped the stone ground and his body flew up again into midair.
Just as he was falling down, a familiar voice suddenly echoed out from afar. “Nie Tian!”
Nie Tian looked in the direction of the sound and saw Zheng Bin from the Mystic Mist sect.
Zheng Bin was also by himself, and he was currently on the side of a brown, protruding piece of rock that was about a thousand meters away from him.
Clearly, Zheng Bin had been deliberately hiding himself behind that piece of rock, as if he feared being discovered by anyone.
Only when Nie Tian jumped into the air did Zheng Bin notice him and couldn’t help but shout out to him.
Zheng Bin saw that Nie Tian also noticed him, and then lowered his voice as he said, waving at him, “Hey! Watch out! Don’t expose yourself!”
Nie Tian, who had just landed, softly tapped the ground, and once again his body became like cotton as he rapidly floated towards Zheng Bin.
He was the only living person that Nie Tian had seen until now.
Since the distance between him and Zheng Bin exceeded the range of his psychic awareness, he didn’t sense his existence earlier. Now that he had seen him, he wanted to communicate with Zheng Bin.
Inwardly, he viewed Zheng Bin differently from Pan Tao, since he wasn’t a friend who had shared trials and tribulations with him.
When they were in the Green Illusion dimension, as well as the Scarlet Flame Mountain Range, Zheng Bin had repeatedly withdrawn himself when they met danger.
However, Nie Tian didn’t hold a grudge against him either.
He and Zheng Bin were like strangers brought together by chance. They weren’t familiar with each other, and he used to act on his own account and cause trouble for others, so Zheng Bin’s unwillingness to undertake the consequences that he had caused had been understandable.
He tried to adapt to the gravitational field that was significantly different from the Realm of Flame Heaven as he floated towards Zheng Bin. Seconds later, he arrived.
After he had arrived, Zheng Bin looked anxious as he lowered his voice to warn Nie Tian, “Man! You should have kept a low profile!
“Do you know that killing is allowed between all those who have stepped into the Heaven Gate, and no punishment shall be implemented? By flying into the sky, you’ve already exposed yourself. If others have spotted you, they’ll definitely come to kill you and loot your belongings! By acting so recklessly, you’re actually putting me in danger too!”
Zheng Bin had already started to regret waving towards Nie Tian, which led Nie Tian to come over.
Nie Tian thought for a moment, and realized that what Zheng Bin said made sense. He said with a smile, “Sorry.”
Zheng Bin said nothing back, but rather concentrated on observing the surroundings silently.
Only after a while later, when he found no traces of anybody coming and believed that no one had discovered them, did he secretly let out a sigh of relief.
Zheng Bin’s expression turned grim and he explained in a low voice, “I didn’t expect this place to be completely devoid of the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, which means that we have only our spirit stones to rely on to restore our spiritual power after battles.
“From now on, spirit stones, medicinal pills, and food will become necessities that people will kill for! If you want to stay alive here, you’ll need to obtain large amounts of food, spirit stones, and medicinal pills!
“This will be reason enough for any two people to start a deadly fight the moment they meet!
“Especially between people who don’t know each other!”
Nie Tian nodded. “Yeah, the same idea just occurred to me.”
Zheng Bin waved his hand and crouched his body as he led the way stealthily. “Follow me, I’ll show you something that I just discovered.”
Excitement could be seen on his face.
Confused and curious, Nie Tian followed him as he wanted to see what had made Zheng Bin so cautious and excited.
