Chapter 792: True Void (2/2)
“Because of that, you’re the only one who deserves to be with me.
“You’ll be reborn after you’re unburdened of all of those useless memories. All of your new memories will be branded with my shadow.
“We’ll have children, who will be born with your bloodline power.
“You won’t have to wait for too long. Soon, I’ll be able to get you out of this freezing ice.”
He gazed lovingly at Pei Qiqi as he muttered in a soft voice, as if he were gazing at an unearthly gem.
In the void.
A glowing spark rapidly expanded, then Nie Tian and the others flashed out of it.
SHEW!
The Voidspirit Pagoda was the last to flash out of the glowing spatial rift.
As soon as it did, the spatial rift rapidly shrank down and vanished completely.
“This is...!” Hua Mu’s expression flickered as he hastily summoned spiritual power to form a protective ward around him.
Nie Tian also gasped with astonishment as he sensed countless impurities in his surroundings, poisoning his flesh and making him very uncomfortable.
Some of the impurities were intangible. They infiltrated his sea of awareness, slowing his mind.
Some other impurities were tangibles that were very thick and heavy. Upon contact, they would penetrate his skin and merge with his flesh like raindrops returning to the sea, inflicting him with incomparable pain.
With a bitter smile, Zhao Shanling said, “This is the true void. The continent we came from is over there.”
He pointed at a pale, lifeless star.
Everyone looked over with rapt attention, and discovered that the star was so vast that they felt as if it was within arm’s reach.
“This star has died,” Zhao Shanling explained. “As a dead star or dead realm, it no longer produces the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, but there are still some spiritual minerals in it. People from the Golden Vast Sect seem to be there to mine them. If we continued to stay on that dead star, they would have found us soon.
“So I could only get us out of there with the help of the Voidspirit Pagoda, and bring you to the true void.”
“The true void?!” Nie Tian exclaimed.
Zhao Shanling nodded heavily. “That’s right. The true void is different from space disruption zones. The true void is filled with all kinds of danger and impurities. Some impurities are tangible, while others are intangible. They’ll corrode any Qi warrior’s flesh and soul unceasingly.
“Only after entering the Void domain will Qi warriors be able to create and hide behind their private domains and roam the true void freely.
“Otherwise, people will have to use ancient starships with impenetrable exteriors to keep the impurities away if they wish to travel in the true void.”
Nie Tian spent a moment to sense his surroundings, and realized that the so-called true void was indeed different from space disruption zones he had been to.
In space disruption zones, he would only lose his spiritual power at a low rate. By avoiding the deadly lights that dashed across from time to time, he would most likely be able to survive.
But here, all kinds of impurities, tangible or intangible, attempted to infiltrate him to mutilate his body and soul with every passing second.
It had only been seconds but he already had a strange feeling that his body had become incomparably heavy, and that he was sinking towards an abyss where death awaited him.
However, he hadn’t had any similar feelings before in the forbidden region that had been sealed away for hundreds of thousands of years.
He pondered the reason behind it, and soon realized that perhaps some profound restriction spell had been keeping the most deadly impurities out of that region, so that he would be able to travel there.
Eyes narrowed, Zhao Shanling said, “There are a lot of dead stars in the vicinity. We can go to another one and see if we can find Thousandsword Mountain Sect Qi warriors with low cultivation bases and get the truth of junior martial sister’s death out of them. I can keep the void impurities away with my Voidspirit Pagoda, but the consumption will be significant.”
“I’ll see if my Star Boat can achieve the same effect,” Nie Tian said.
With these words, he summoned the Star Boat and jumped on board.
BOOM!
A layer of misty starlight instantly spread out, covering the Star Boat like a large bowl that was placed upside down on it.
This ward of starlight was also powered by the Star Stones at the bottom of the Star Boat. The moment it came to form, all of the impurities were kept out.
“Come on,” Nie Tian called out to the others. “It’s safe in here.”
Looking overjoyed, the experts flew into the Star Boat one by one, then discovered that, just as he had said, the ward of starlight was indeed keeping all kinds of impurities out.
They felt as if they had been caught in a violent storm of impurities just now, but the moment they entered the Star Boat, everything around them became peaceful and calm, with all dangers shielded from them.
“The Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s power is indeed unfathomable!” Zhao Shanling marveled. “Normally speaking, since small-scale air-transportation spiritual tools can’t hold very many spell formations, their abilities are usually limited to sailing through the air. Only enormous ancient starships can hold a large number of spell formations, which allow them to not only sail across the starry river, but also ward off impurities.
“I wonder how many spell formations this small air-transportation spiritual tool holds that actually vest it with the abilities of an ancient starship.”
With these words, he turned his head to examine their surroundings. Pointing at a fairly distant dead star, he said, “Let go and take a look over there.”
Nie Tian then steered the Star Boat accordingly.
