Chapter 487: Bone Remains
Countless stars shone brightly in the sky.
A vast continent was floating above boundless grayish-brown clouds.
Nie Tian stood by the edge of the floating continent, where a slender spatial rift was hanging over everyone’s head like a huge sword.
He gazed off into the distance and saw many more floating continents, some of which were even bigger than the one they were standing on.
However, most of them were small ones that were only several square kilometers wide. They seemed to be channeled by some sort of force as they floated slowly and disorderly.
There wasn’t a sun or moon, just stars. The spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth didn’t exist in the air, nor did any energy that other outsider races could use as a power source.
SHEW!
Zhen Huilan was the last one to fly out of the slender spatial rift and land in the middle of everyone.
Eyes narrowed, she glanced around at this strange heaven and earth, and then said, “There is a small Space Spirit Jade mineral vein in the continent we are now standing on.”
Pei Qiqi’s eyes instantly lit up.
“Qiqi, go and see if you can gather those Space Spirit Jades,” Zhen Huilan ordered.
Pei Qiqi nodded and sped off towards the center of the continent, her body thrumming with spatial energy ripples as she tried to detect the Space Spirit Jades.
All the others remained at the edge of the continent, glancing around, hoping to gain a better understanding of this mysterious place.
Nie Tian was no exception.
Since Zhu Lian, Bai Yu, and the others were around, he didn’t unleash his Heaven Eyes, but rather gazed around with his eyes.
He tried jumping, and instantly shot dozens of meters into the sky. Expression flickering, he exclaimed, “I can barely feel any gravity!”
Shocked, Wu Ling and the others tried jumping after him. Every one of them shot dozens of meters into the sky and landed steadily.
Standing by the edge of the floating continent, Nie Tian gazed down, and discovered that the boundless grayish-brown clouds were like a sea of clouds, preventing him from seeing what was underneath them.
He gazed ahead, and saw that numerous huge boulders were floating about slowly.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Yao Shou and other Spirit God Sect members flew through the spatial rift and landed among the Tool Sect members one after another. Afterwards, they regathered into a group.
Yao Shou and the other two Profound realm experts from the Spirit God Sect didn’t speak immediately after assuming a firm foothold, but rather glanced around curiously.
They also noticed the large number of continents floating in the distance, and the even larger number of floating boulders around them.
“Master Zhen, this is...” Yao Shou said, frowning. As seasoned and knowledgeable as he was, he didn’t know what he was looking at.
Zhen Huilan pondered as she said. “This vast dimension somehow exploded, forming many floating continents and broken boulders. The explosion destroyed the gravitational field, and the special energy of heaven and earth that originally enveloped the whole continent changed and became the grayish-brown cloud sea underneath us.”
Instantly enlightened, Yao Shou pondered for a while in silence, then said, “I’ll go and take a look around.”
With these words, he circulated his spiritual power and flew away from the floating continent that everyone else was standing on, towards a huge boulder that was floating nearby.
Like a feather, he soon landed on the huge boulder. After a brief scan, he didn’t find anything noteworthy, and thus flew towards another boulder that was floating in a farther location.
Seeing that he had headed out, Bai Yu said, “Let’s take a look in the vicinity as well.”
The ring of holding on her finger flickered, and immediately afterwards, a Rainbow Lightning appeared before her.
After jumping onto it, she stood at the prow, where she unleashed a layer of crimson spiritual light that enveloped the Rainbow Lightning and her petite physique.
In this strange dimension where the gravitational field had been destroyed, the Rainbow Lightning sped off like a bolt of lightning in the opposite direction that Yao Shou had gone in.
Afterwards, the other two Profound realm experts from the Spirit God Sect, Zhen Huilan, and Zhu Lian also left this floating continent and went searching in nearby areas.
Meanwhile, the Worldly realm and Greater Heaven stage Qi warriors from the Spirit God Sect spread out and started examining the continent with their psychic awareness.
The Tool Sect juniors were the only ones who stayed in place and continued to glance around with their curious gazes.
A hour passed...
One after another, people gradually returned to the place where they had first landed. They all shook their heads and said they hadn’t found anything noteworthy on the continents and boulders they had gone to.
Bai Yu was the only one who didn’t come back empty-handed.
