525. Traversing the Void! The Last Opportunity to Collect the World’s Origin!
Inside the void passage, Lin Fei had just stepped in and immediately felt a terrifying pressure and a repelling force, as if trying to 'squeeze' him out of the void passage. Moreover, the pressure in the void was annihilating the particles of his physical body.
However, Lin Fei barely managed to withstand it, though moving forward was extremely difficult, each step requiring him to endure immense pressure.
Deploying the Saber World, Lin Fei unleashed all his strength, barely managing to take a step forward.
"Whoosh."
After taking a step, the void shattered around him. Stumbling and almost clumsily, Lin Fei emerged from the void into a new location.
"This place is..." Lin Fei observed carefully. He was no longer in his secret chamber but in a strange and unfamiliar location. It seemed to be at the edge of the Ancient Covenant, far from the Ancient City, on the periphery of the Ancient Covenant's territory.
"This distance, it's so vast! If I had flown, who knows how long it would have taken."
Lin Fei was profoundly shocked. He immediately understood the power of spatial traversal. Just a single step, and he had traversed such an immense distance.
"Let's go back."
With a slight flicker of the Saber World, the two thousand six hundred Particle Worlds inside him erupted once again, and the void passage reappeared. Lin Fei stepped into it once more.
As soon as he entered, Lin Fei vaguely sensed a familiar location, seemingly the place he had just left. Mustering all his strength, he took another step.
"Swoosh."
When Lin Fei reappeared, he was back in his secret chamber.
"Back again!"
After careful thought, Lin Fei finally understood the intricacies of void traversal. It turned out that traversing the void required specific locations and coordinates.
For those True Monarch powerhouses, sensing these coordinates was feasible. Without specific coordinates, void traversal would be blind, and the destination uncertain.
For Lin Fei, moving through the void was akin to walking on a map. What might seem like a small step on a map could actually span thousands or even tens of thousands of miles in reality. The void passages acted like these maps, with a single step potentially covering vast distances. However, Lin Fei couldn't traverse extremely long distances.
"Those Void Transformation cultivators usually comprehend the secrets of the void, thereby not suffering from the intense pressure within the void passages. This allows them to travel further, effectively traversing greater distances," Lin Fei reasoned.
"For Martial Gods, once they shatter the void, the stronger their physical bodies are, the more pressure they can withstand in the void passages. This means they can take more steps and travel farther. No wonder those who shatter the void continue to seek ways to strengthen their physical bodies, while those who have attained Void Transformation cultivatror keep delving into the mysteries of the void. Both are True Monarchs, both traverse the void, but their methods are entirely different."
Lin Fei now fully grasped the secrets of void traversal. As a Martial God, his path was clear—strengthen his physical body. The more robust his body, the longer he could withstand the pressure of the void passages, and the farther he could travel through the void.
At present, Lin Fei could only manage basic void traversal, covering relatively short distances, especially compared to other True Monarchs. Nonetheless, this was a significant ace up his sleeve. The transition from Martial God to one who has shattered the void was a leap in quality.
"I need more of the world's origin," Lin Fei concluded. "More Saber Worlds, only then can I overcome more thunder tribulations, obtain more world laws, create more Particle Worlds, and strengthen my physical body."
Lin Fei knew a mysterious True Monarch was closely watching him. Should he leave the Ancient Covenant, this individual might seize the opportunity to strike.
"Who exactly is this True Monarch?" Lin Fei pondered, his eyes flashing with determination. Not all True Monarchs were formidable to the same degree. At least now, Lin Fei himself was a True Monarch, and his ability to shatter the void had significantly amplified his strength.
If his adversary was a True Monarch of the Immortal Path, even their primary combat incarnation might not necessarily match Lin Fei's prowess. However, a pressing issue came to Lin Fei's mind: True Monarchs couldn't enter minor worlds without causing them to collapse.
"Am I considered a True Monarch now?" he wondered. "Can I enter a minor world?"
Lin Fei needed more world origins, which required entering minor worlds. But as a True Monarch with immense physical strength, how could he enter these worlds?
"Wait, my status as a True Monarch relies on the augmentation of the Saber World to reach the shattering void realm," Lin Fei reasoned. "That means my physical body hasn't actually reached the void-shattering stage. Can I still enter a minor world?"
With this realization, Lin Fei grew eager to test his theory. He headed to the Great Dream City to look for tasks related to the struggle for world origins. His last venture into the Heavenly Principle Realm had been satisfying, but whether he could find another suitable world now remained uncertain.
Uncertain of the best course of action, Lin Fei arrived at the Great Dream City's task hall and began a thorough search. He found tasks related to the contention for world origins, but they were all for relatively insignificant minor worlds.
Not wanting to waste time and having a specific plan in mind, Lin Fei was determined to collect a substantial amount of world origins. Moreover, he intended not to utilize them immediately. Further strengthening his body at this point would deprive him of the opportunity to enter minor worlds in the future. This might be his last chance to compete for world origins in a minor world.
Lin Fei resolved to make the most of this opportunity, aiming to gather enough world origins to prepare for his next thunder tribulation.
"Wait, the Heavenly Secret Realm is even more powerful than the True Spirit Realm. If I can obtain the world origin of this realm, it could be equivalent to the world origins of ten or even twenty minor worlds!"
Lin Fei's eyes sparkled with excitement upon considering the Heavenly Secret Realm. He had previously contemplated choosing this realm over the Heavenly Principle Realm but ultimately decided against it due to its stability and the lack of signs of collapse, despite being battled over for thousands of years by Deity Transformations and Martial Gods. Lin Fei wasn't interested in waiting for such a long time.
"However, the current stability of the Heavenly Secret Realm might be due to the relatively weaker forces of the Deity Transformations and Martial Gods. What if I, with my power at the critical point of shattering the void, went there? How long would it withstand intense battle and destruction? Could it collapse soon?"
With this plan in mind, Lin Fei's only concern was the mysterious True Monarch who might ambush him en route. "If they dare to intercept me, then let's see who defeats whom." His eyes flashing fiercely, Lin Fei's consciousness returned to the present. In a flash, he flew out of Ancient City, heading towards the Heavenly Secret Realm.
