Chapter 1101: Chapter 665: Doesn't Look Like Going to Inherit the Estate Chapter 1101: Chapter 665: Doesn't Look Like Going to Inherit the Estate “If it were just a few times larger than a fragment, one could claim it fell off His Majesty, but a chunk three meters in diameter is absolutely impossible to have come from His Majesty. Even if His Majesty's bones were chopped up and mashed together, there wouldn't be this much.”
“Where is it?”
“In the Spirit Abyss.”
“Isn't Spirit Abyss your title?”
“Too lazy to come up with a name, just took it and used it.”
The Magicians in the sky ladder were chatting as four sky ladders flew from the void to their destination.
“This is the Spirit Abyss?” Negris looked at the vortex made up of various substances in the distance and asked, somewhat shocked; such a primitive abyss was indeed rare.
Many people do not understand why planes with elemental imbalance are called abysses, because most primitive abysses are like this: wild, rough, fierce, dangerous, able to devour everything.
In fact, it relies on devouring enough elements to form a real plane, such as Earth Element, Water Element, Wind Element.
For example, the Resting Abyss has rocky layers, which is the result of an abundance of Earth Element; but if some planes are not rich in Earth Element and other elements are abundant, the situation would be entirely different.
The vortex in front of them is in a primitive state of the abyss, still slowly taking shape; what kind of plane it will form in the end depends on what elements it can devour.
Currently, it has only gathered a tiny bit of Earth Element in the core area, forming several tens of cubic kilometers of irregular rocks, with a vast amount of broken rocks and ice scattered around in a vortex shape.
“From afar, I thought it had a strong suction, but it's just a shape?” Feiti exclaimed as the sky ladder approached.
“Hehe, with propulsion, you'd think the suction is small, but if you can't 'step through the void' and can't move in the void, you'd know how strong the suction is. Elements in a large surrounding area, if untouched by external forces, can't escape its attraction,” explained Negris.
This plane-level 'devouring' doesn't mean there is actually a powerful suctioning abyss attracting all matter; it means that all objects that cannot move autonomously can't escape its devouring.
For example, if a wizard falls here where there are no elements around, he can only tumble towards the center of the abyss. If he's lucky and he's a Water Mage, he might encounter an ice block on the way and have a chance to escape; if he's a Wind Magician, he's doomed.
So normally, Elemental Mages wouldn't venture into the void to seek misfortune. Only a Space System Mage like Hiludi would occasionally enter the void, but that too is very risky.
Leaving the sky ladder and flying toward the central rock, Lainas had now entered his egg-shaped base; the originally semi-open base completely closed up, leaving only a transparent round window showing his face.
His voice simultaneously emanated from the base, spreading through a special oscillation in the airless void:
“This is the place, the Spirit Abyss. Everyone who enters here experiences tremendous restrictions on their mental faculties, hence the name Spirit Abyss. The Oscillating Crystal Core is embedded in a massive body within the rock.”
Others also flew over, Radiad exuding a divine light, tightly wrapped around himself as he floated, while Cabrela simply sat inside the airship.
As they approached within ten kilometers of the rock, Ange suddenly stopped, stood a finger up, and two substantial Spirit Touches lashed out, pulling Radiad and Lainas violently backward.
When the Spirit Touch reached Lainas, he didn't even know what was happening; he instinctively threw out his Spirit Touch to block, but as soon as it made contact with Ange's Spirit Touch, it shattered and he was pulled back.
Throughout, Ange's Spirit Touch didn't vary at all, as if Lainas's attempt to block it had never occurred.
Right after the two were pulled away, a clump of roots suddenly probed out from their original position and stirred violently, churning the air.
Cabrela's airship was also entangled by roots, like being wrapped by a huge python; the airship's shield burst first, and then the entire airship was crushed.
Before the airship was destroyed, a strong Spatial Fluctuation blasted open, and Cabrela emerged, disheveled, with his chest broken, flickering with remnants of magical fluctuations — clearly, some magical device at his chest had saved his life.
Anthony shouted angrily, “What is this? Didn't you say it was safe here?”
If Lainas had not been a target of the attack as well, Anthony would have suspected that Lainas had led them all into a trap.
Still in shock, Lainas yelled, “I don't know, I don't know; this thing wasn't here before. I've been here many times, even trained here for a long time, and I've never seen any other living creatures.”
As Lainas spoke, the rock silently shattered, and from a pile of rubble climbed… a Tree Person, a colossal one possibly a thousand meters tall, its forehead embedded with a black crystal three meters in diameter.
As it 'climbed' from the rubble — 'climbed,' because its size was barely smaller than the rock itself, bulky and tall, with a height of a thousand meters and a chest width probably no less than four hundred meters — from afar, it resembled the Totem Column of the Minotaur, Vania.
The Tree Person, with vine arms trailing from its shoulders, grabbed two boulders and roared in the direction of Ange and others: “War! War! War!” then hurled them forcefully.
While merely stone 'fragments' to the Tree Person a thousand meters tall, each of these fragments had a diameter of twenty to thirty meters.
In the face of such an unadorned attack, no move or skill mattered; they could only dodge. Even the Guardian Barrier wouldn't guarantee to withstand the impact of such massive rocks.
Everyone scattered like a beehive poked, and Negris simultaneously shouted, “War Tree Man! Why a War Tree Man? How can there be such a massive War Tree Man? Is it Gaur's great-grandfather or what?”
The God of Life, who had emerged the moment the root appeared, responded slowly, “Gaur is my child; Gaur's great-grandfather, is that my father?”
“Ah? No, no, I didn't mean it that way,” Negris stumbled, wasn't this essentially cursing, 'It's your father'?
“That's exactly what I meant,” the God of Life floated up from Ange's shoulder, growing rapidly: “I can feel its presence; it's the child of my father, just like Gaur's relationship with me; it's guarding something that belonged to my father.”
Everyone was stunned, the father of the God of Life? My goodness, the God of Life also had a father… Well, yes, the World Tree also needed seeds to grow, just like 'Little Sapling'.
So, these were relics left by the father of the God of Life? But seeing the God of Life's manner, it didn't seem like it was just here to inherit.
