Chapter 450: Chapter 450 News of the Supre Divine Position
Ye Chenyu reached out and made a grasping motion, condensing the surrounding void energy into a mass. With a casual point of his finger, the energy mass split into dozens of void energy arrows, piercing through the dozens of void fish surrounding him.
Taking this opportunity, he transford into a beam of golden light and burst out, scattering the void fish around him like bowling pins and breaking free from their encirclent.
They were just small void fish, so he did not feel particularly happy about it. After quickly determining his direction, he sped off toward it.
In the vast expanse of the void, his tiny sphere of light was inconspicuous. When the waves of the void rose, they engulfed him, the corrosive void energy constantly eroding his protective light sphere. He had to continuously pour Divine Power into the Divine Shield to maintain it.
Although the consumption was small, amounting to just a bit of Divine Power every few hours, it was constant.
In the boundless void, who knew how far the nearest plane was. If he was unlucky, he could be adrift for decades. Moreover, encountering danger from ti to ti would deplete his Divine Power. Even his Incarnation, which was condensed from more than a hundred thousand Divine Power, might not last until the end.
In theory, a Demigod Stage Divine Incarnation could carry an unlimited amount of Divine Power, even up to a hundred million if necessary.
Of course, Ye Chenyu was not that wealthy. Or to put it another way, he could muster a hundred million Divine Power by exhausting all his resources, but most of it would be in the form of General Divine Power Crystals, which were intended for trade, not the Divine Power condensed from the Power of Faith offered by his followers.
General Divine Power Crystals could be used to power arrays or Magic Items or could be triggered to unleash imnse power to repel enemies. However, they could not be directly absorbed by a Demigod. The Crystals, with their various mixed thoughts and residual spiritual Brandings, required a long ti to be refined before use.
If there were ample ti and leisure, one could refine it slowly, but there was no ti to spare in the void.
Although Ye Chenyu held a military rank, it was a re private, and he did not have the privilege of additional advantages. He could only honestly travel slowly by himself.
After escaping the initial landing point by about a thousand kiloters in one breath, he felt a Void Storm surging from behind. He quickly channeled more Divine Power into the Divine Shield to brace for the impact.
“Bang!”
Lin Xiao felt the Flying Snake No. tremble slightly, as if it had hit sothing. He looked at the observer at the bow in confusion.
The observer said,
“It appears we’ve collided with so larger Void Creature; it’s no big deal.”
“Oh, then that’s fine.”
Saying this, he lay down at ease and closed his eyes to rest.
In the void, Ye Chenyu was currently spiraling out several kiloters before stabilizing himself. He looked at the fading outline in the pitch-black void and cursed loudly,
“Damn it, in such a hurry to be reborn!”
The Flying Snake No. had thought it collided with a Void Creature, but how could he not know that he had been hit by a Void Ship?
If he had been in normal lost space, he would have loudly hailed the ship for a ride, but at this mont, he dared not make a sound. He didn’t even dare to curse too loudly for fear of catching the attention of the Void Ship. Especially if soone from the upperclassn was on board, whether a junior or a senior, things would be dire.
While struggling to travel on one hand, and resting comfortably in a large chair on the other, the disparity…
This might seem unfair, but it was actually quite normal in the university.
In any university, even the most ordinary ones, such disparities occur. The schools, through practical actions, show you what unfairness is, and what you should do when faced with such unfairness.
Those born into opulent Clans could use their family’s advantages to widen the gap with those from humble backgrounds, while those from humble backgrounds could strive to earn their own advantages.
The first major lesson in university clearly tells students from humble backgrounds how to close the gap with their wealthier classmates: enlist in the military.
It might not be the only way, but it is certainly the most straightforward and fairest thod.
Even though the military has its own share of relationships and affairs, as long as you can establish rit and advance your military rank, you will not be shortchanged on the deserved benefits.
Just like Lin Xiao, he was among the poorest in his class, but thanks to his skills and the advantage of his military rank, he’d already widened the gap with other students from the very beginning, and that gap would only continue to grow.
The void is vast and limitless. The Flying Snake No. maintained full Speed for over twenty days before detecting the first plane.
It was a solitary pale red globe of light, floating in the void, discovered by chance after passing through a void storm that spanned hundreds of thousands of kiloters.
Looking through the portholes, no abnormalities could be seen. It didn’t seem like a trap set by Void Creatures. At that mont, the Flying Snake No. was only a few thousand kiloters away from that plane, and the presence of Void Creatures in the surrounding void had decreased significantly. From all aspects, it conford to the rules of a true plane.
After confirming there were no mistakes, Lin Xiao ordered the Flying Snake No. to slowly approach.
Soon, they were close to the plane, clearly seeing the red Crystal Wall of the plane marred by webs of black lines resembling spiderwebs. The Flying Snake No. circled the plane, and this black web covered the entire plane.
“What is this?”
This was not usual. There were many recorded planes in the Main World, including so thats were strange like this one. According to those records, strange planes like this one are very likely to be problematic—an estimate of eighty out of a hundred were not normal.
“What do you think?”
He asked Shen Yuexin, who had rushed over after hearing the news.
After carefully examining it for a mont, his girlfriend thoughtfully said,
“Generally, a plane like this is likely problematic, but there is a small chance it is special. If you’re not in a hurry, you might consider exploring it.”
“Hmm!”
After a mont of silence, Lin Xiao said to the marine platoon commander Flying Snake:
“The ship should have magic machinery specially designed for exploration, right? When the warship gets near the plane, drop one down and take a look.”
Flying Snake nodded:
“There are five types of small magic machinery on the warship. They all need to be placed at the edge of the plane, or else they are likely to be blown away by the void storms.”
“Then let’s move in closer and have a look.”
Subsequently, the warship slowly approached, and the closer they got, the clearer the black network covering the entire plane crystal wall beca. It looked like an imnse web covering the interior edge of the plane crystal wall, but it was unclear when viewed through the crystal wall itself.
The warship stopped at a distance of about one kiloter from the plane. This was as close as one could get for exploration of a different domain. Any closer and they would be up against the plane crystal wall, leaving them no ti to escape should any major changes occur.
A chanical flying snake was released, its tal wings unfolded, and several nozzles at the rear ejected streams of air, propelling it slowly toward the plane.
This was a purely chanical construct, powered by a simple jet system, and contained no superhuman elents.
Its functions were limited and it had no significant combative power, but it was safe and discreet.
It’s well known that the void is too dangerous. Having superhuman power could easily attract the attention of so unknown observers.
This type of machine, which rely extracts void energy and then expels it for propulsion, generally goes unnoticed by transcendent creatures. In theory, as long as it’s quiet enough, it might even crawl under a dragon’s foot without being detected.
The Flying Snake crossed the kiloter of void, wobbling at a very slow speed, and clung to the plane crystal wall, its four tal claws embedded within. Then, its head transford into a sharp tal drill and burrowed into the light wall.
The plane crystal wall and the crystal wall of the Crystal Wall Universe are fundantally similar, mostly consisting of a light film that separates the void and protects everything within the plane.
The light film itself is not very durable, and many things can easily bore into it. For example, this detecting machinery could easily achieve this, but that doesn’t an everyone can enter.
Planes usually repel any foreign transcendent powers, even without a plane will, so even for a small plane, transcendent beings from a different domain like them would find it extrely difficult to enter, but this detection machinery is not repelled.
At this mont, Flying Snake No. had spread a light screen showing a blurred and trembling picture, which was the detecting machinery crossing the plane crystal wall.
It took almost half an hour for the image to gradually beco clear, revealing a world shrouded in gray mist.
The mist was dense, and the images shown only allowed for visibility up to about five ters, let alone a clear view of the conditions inside the plane.
Simultaneously, information sent from the detecting machinery indicated that the mist contained a corrosive component that was slowly corroding the Flying Snake detector.
According to an initial analysis by the exploration machinery, within about a year, this detector, made of a high-strength alloy, would be corroded completely.
Five minutes later, Lin Xiao shook his head and said:
“Retrieve the detector, we can’t enter this plane.”
While it could be determined that this plane was not a trap set by void creatures, the preliminary exploration showed that the plane was unsuitable for biological life. Even strong alloys could slowly be corroded, and the flesh would certainly dissolve within minutes.
The first attempt was unsuccessful; the plane they found was worthless.
He wasn’t discouraged though; exploring the void of different domains was a long journey by its nature. How many have wandered the void for countless years before by chance stumbling upon a valuable plane? If he had found a valuable plane on the first try, suspicion would have crept into his mind.
He smiled and shook his head, prepared to turn back, when suddenly on the light screen a massive shadow swept past through the dense gray mist. An intangible pressure erged, stirring up the gray mist which surged to obscure everything in view, leaving the screen a blur.
“That’s huge!”
After pondering for several seconds, Lin Xiao ordered:
“Move Flying Snake No. further away, to ten kiloters.”
The image rapidly receded backwards as the Flying Snake detector rose slowly from the plane crystal wall and retreated, slowly approaching Flying Snake No.
Nothing unexpected followed; there was no sight of any colossal being tearing through the plane crystal wall to erge.
After retrieving the detector, Flying Snake No. swiftly turned and left the plane.
Lin Xiao called up the star chart, marking a point on it and added a note—
Unknown Plane: Characteristics ‘gray mist, corrosive.’ Observed an unknown gigantic creature, uncertain if it can leave the plane.
As an explorer, charting star maps is an essential skill.
The planes explored were marked on the star
