GDK 578: Interplanar Transportation Array
“Go home?” Han Shuo cried out in surprise. He stared at Bechymos with glowing eyes and asked, “You’re a foreigner to the Abyss realm as well?”
After giving a faint sigh, Bechymos’ green eyes were filled with sadness that recalled fondly of the past. In a deep and low voice, he replied, “That’s right. Just like you, I wasn’t born in the Abyss realm. I have stayed in this place for countless years. I have no friends or relatives here. You have only arrived in the Abyss realm for a short while and might have yet to know such unending loneliness. Sigh…”
Han Shuo’s grew curious upon hearing this. After thinking for a moment, Han Shuo nodded and said, “I understand how you feel. Separated from the world you are familiar with – that kind of loneliness and solitude is indeed very painful.”
The distance between Bechymos and Han Shuo seemed to suddenly pull closer after Han Shuo said those words. Bechymos looked at Han Shuo and continued, “It is. My friends, families, and everything I’m familiar with, is in another world. In this world, however, everyone and everything is strange and unfamiliar. Our worshippers, these ant-like existences are absolutely not ones that gods like us could pour our hearts to. The Abyss realm really is a little too small. Staying for one or ten years in this place could still be tolerable. But thousands of years, that kind of loneliness and constant torment, try to imagine that.”
Trapped alone in this unfamiliar country along with Abyssal creatures as backward and primitive as ants, for thousands of years…
Han Shuo began to imagine that for a moment and faintly understood how Bechymos felt. He nodded with creased brows and suddenly became extremely sympathetic towards Bechymos. After thinking for a moment, Han Shuo said in a deep voice, “I’m indeed familiar with this interplanar transportation matrix. But as to if it could be activated, I need to try it before I can be sure.”
“To help me is to help yourself. You should try it as soon as possible. The Void is not a place one can stay for long,” Bechymos said hurriedly. He became rather anxious and impatient when the interplanar transportation matrix was mentioned.
The clock is ticking. The stardust current will return sooner or later and the Void along with this valley will again be filled with it. Han Shuo naturally understood Bechymos’ worries. With Han Shuo’s consciousness as mighty as it was, he had no fear towards the corrosiveness of the stardust current on his soul – although this may not have been the case for his two lowgods of death and destruction avatars, who didn’t cultivate demonic arts as his main body did.
His consciousness was invulnerable towards the stardust current, but that didn’t mean it was the same for the divine souls of his two avatars. Although they could be concealed in Han Shuo’s body, Han Shuo had no absolute certainty and dared not to take chances with his two avatars that were formed with great difficulty.
Therefore, Han Shuo only hesitated for a quick moment before getting ready to attempt activating the interplanar transportation matrix inside the dilapidated Cemetery of Death.
Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh! Just then, over a dozen shadows arrived and landed behind Han Shuo. They were the Demons that Han Shuo had just tamed. As their speeds were too slow, they had been trailing far behind and they only finally caught up to Han Shuo.
“Stand right there, don’t move!” Han Shuo lightly yelled with his main body. After finishing those words, a shadow slowly floated out from his chest, which twisted in mid-air before turning into another Han Shuo walking step by step towards the Cemetery of Death ahead.
There was an invisible boundary present around this dilapidated Cemetery of Death as well. Perhaps because it had been too long, or maybe it had previously sustained damage, compared to the boundary around the Cemetery of Death back on Profound Continent, this one was much, much weaker.
When Han Shuo’s avatar of death started to approach that invisible boundary, a sudden feeling of extreme familiarity rose in Han Shuo’s heart. Before Han Shuo had time to think about it, that deep black magical robe draped over his body suddenly glowed a faint green. The boundary that enveloped the interplanar transportation matrix, most kindly split open to make an opening that allowed Han Shuo to pass through.
Han Shuo was stunned for a moment but quickly returned to his senses. Delighted, he exclaimed, “It turns out to be this fella! I surely did not expect this. Haha, things are going to be much more convenient with this!”
From the flash of green light on the deep black magical robe, having the experience of opening the Cemetery of Death on Profound Continent using the skeletal staff, Han Shuo immediately understood that the previous owner of that deep black magical robe, the midgod whose divine soul was fused with Han Shuo, had also been the owner of this abyssal Cemetery of Death!
When Bechymos watched Han Shuo stepping into the structure without having to forcibly bombard the boundary like he himself had previously done, his pupils suddenly constricted and he hastily asked, “What’s going on?”
