Cultivation : I'm an Ancient Giant Bear
Chapter 590 - 557: Another World
At this moment, a Heaven and Earth Tower appeared before them, seemingly only a few meters tall, surrounded by palaces, but also small and delicate.
Wang Wu looked around; there were a total of three hundred and sixty palaces, encircling that Heaven and Earth Tower.
From his perspective, the total area of the entire complex was not even the size of a basketball court.
But in reality, this place might be infinitely large.
It depends on the observer's perspective.
For example, Wang Wu discovered an odd fish tank-like object inside one of the palaces, inside which starlight twinkled beautifully, yet who would believe it contained trillion-level stars and countless beings?
Anyway, Wang Wu felt he couldn't achieve such feats at the moment.
This fish tank alone seemed a hundred times more valuable than his Heaven and Earth Shield.
Additionally, within the palace complex, there were countless small worlds like the fish tank; the ones Wang Wu saw alone numbered in the thousands.
Inside, countless creatures were working hard, living joyfully.
Yet the eerie thing is, aside from creatures within these small worlds, the entire palace group seemed devoid of high-dimensional beings, and no Daluo were visible.
This place truly seemed akin to Daluo's Tomb.
Wang Wu hesitated for a long time but dared not enter the palace complex, knowing he might never come out once he went in.
Indeed.
This was absolutely an unimaginable unknown land; despite standing outside the building complex, he suspected the spatial dimensions of this place to be very high.
It's not hidden within the original Cultivation Realm; rather, the Cultivation Realm concealed a path leading to this palace complex, simply due to Dubhe Old Man's self-sacrifice in the Cultivation Realm inadvertently helping Wang Wu find this place.
"Forget it, I don't want to take risks, there's absolutely no need."
Turning away, Wang Wu had just reached the level of a small Half-step Daluo, not even a Half-step Daluo, where was the confidence to take risks?
But just at that moment, suddenly, from another direction of the palace complex, a rainbow-colored radiance was triggered, like a bridge connecting the palace complex with some area.
Of course, from Wang Wu's perspective, it seemed just like a shabby external pipe.
Only by being inside could one feel its vastness and mystery, because the rainbow bridge that could connect the palace complex, equated to possessing the authority to enter and exit at will, which Wang Wu was far from possessing.
A moment later, he saw a vague shadow appear on the rainbow bridge from afar, instantaneously entering the palace complex, yet the strange thing was, Wang Wu found it hard to find him within the palace complex.
This immediately overturned Wang Wu's previous assumption; the palace complex did have Daluo, but they were unseen.
"Still, it has nothing to do with me."
Wang Wu continued shaking his head, not expecting at that moment, a radiance activated above his head and transformed into another rainbow bridge connecting to the palace complex.
Moreover, radiances activated from other directions, ultimately forming nine rainbow bridges in total?
Does this represent nine Daluo?
Wang Wu curiously guessed; he could only see vague shadows on the other eight rainbow bridges, but above his head, he heard faint human voices.
He dared not act rashly, only letting his Heaven and Earth Shield slowly fly out, as close as possible to the rainbow bridge, in this way observing.
Upon seeing this, he couldn't help but be slightly shocked as he saw two familiar faces.
One was Lu Wuchen, another was Five Poison.
Furthermore, the people walking on the rainbow bridge numbered twenty-four.
They seemed to be Half-step Daluo, no, no, they weren't, yet they were certainly Tier Nine Taiyi, just one step away from Half-step Daluo.
And seeing them in pairs meant they belonged to different factions.
Could this represent twelve Daluo?
No, they were all Astronomer Prophets or Great Witch Priests.
Wang Wu suddenly came to realization.
Watch them cross the rainbow bridge, enter the palace complex, and step into the first palace. Rarely could Wang Wu clearly see their actions.
They seemed to be greatly disturbed there, very strangely.
Though they were all not far apart from each other, even a hand's stretch away, yet somehow, they acted like everyone was lost.
Running like headless chickens.
No, no, not like that.
For instance, they each clearly had their own methods.
A Great Witch Priest of the Demon Race swiftly cut himself, using his blood as a guide forward, then very smoothly found a fish tank.
Meanwhile, like Lu Wuchen, biting his tongue tip to form a unique Immortal Talisman to guide his way, also finding an odd fish tank, it seemed their purpose was to seek out these small worlds.
However, upon finding these small worlds, they were met with resistance, as numerous formidable beings emerged from those small worlds, unheard and unseen, completely beyond the realms of Humans, Demons, and Monsters, some even directly resembling types of machines, quantum state-like creatures.
The fighting was relentless, the battle extremely, extremely fierce, although for Wang Wu at the moment, it looked like viewing a crude animated movie, but he knew this was merely due to observing from too far a distance, space folds causing distortion.
Indeed, if caught in it, he might have a hard time.
For in just that short time, already three Great Witch Priests of the Demon Race and two Human Race Astronomer Prophets perished, their bodies taken as loot, as if some delicious delicacy.
Five Poison died just like that...
Without the chance to say goodbye.
Yet the remaining participants largely managed to raid the small worlds, extracting a certain material, then swiftly withdrew without lingering in battle.
The entire process lasted about twenty seconds?
No, no, no, Wang Wu's perspective was twenty seconds, like watching an animated short film, but he estimated, from Lu Wuchen and those people's perspective, maybe this might have been twenty years.
So these Daluo cultivating Great Witch Priests, cultivating Astronomer Prophets, were for coming here to pillage resources?
Why does it feel like this palace complex resembles another world unrelated to this world?
Because only in such a way would the materials differ, needing such costly methods to plunder.
Soon, the participants returned, the rainbow bridge quickly dismantling after just one second, everything restored to its initial state, while the other eight rainbow bridges also disappeared subsequently.
This kind of plundering ended.
After pondering for a while, Wang Wu decisively retreated, returning to the original space fissure, his intuition telling him that if he dared to step forward, enter the world where the palace complex resided, he would begin a second crossing in his life.
Indeed, directly entering a completely different world.
What's the difference with crossing?
Yet thinking about it was still thrilling.
But he was old, couldn't bounce around anymore, no need to be so reckless.
The world is vast, I don't want to see it.
Following this, after long contemplation, Wang Wu resolutely passed through these space fissures, leaving, passing one after another, after he crossed about three hundred huge space fissures in a breath, suddenly an unbidden enlightenment arose.
He was leaving.
Like the fisherman leaving Peach Blossom Spring.
Standing before the last space fissure, it seemed the owner of Peach Blossom Spring was behind him, waving goodbye, a step forward was his world, a step backward was a strange world.
The emergence of these space fissures was not without cause, because this was a passage, an ancient passage.
Now once he left, this passage would collapse, never to exist again, unable to maintain balance.
During those years, he was inside, merely delaying the breaking of this balance.
Now, he could no longer maintain it.
Then, goodbye once again.
With a slight smile, Wang Wu stepped through the last space fissure, no need to look back, within it had already collapsed at light speed.
The world of the palace complex would be completely unrelated to him henceforth, from now on, the ones able to find the palace complex world would only be those twelve Daluo because only they could arrange to activate the rainbow bridge.
Even at this moment, Wang Wu couldn't help but consider, if looking from the world where the palace complex resided, what would his world look like?
Will there be similar Daluo-like beings from other worlds invading their world, engaging in plundering?
Ahead, more collapsing materials began to appear, more chaotic Spiritual Qi, yet somehow, Wang Wu felt more intimate, realizing he was right, he had returned.
Even within these chaotic Spiritual Qi, he could sense powerful life forms active, someone was clearing, exploring this collapsed Cultivation Realm ruin?
Indeed, it was not mistaken; Wang Wu silently slipped through, soon seeing a team of fully armed Taiyi True Immortals deploying Grand Arrays with support from Eternal Firm Immortal Artifacts, conducting rescue-form—plundering of the collapsing Cultivation Realm ruins.
Indeed, plundering.
Who doesn't like resources?
Chaotic Spiritual Qi is also a type of resource, right?
This white resource lying here, who would be foolish to remain indifferent?
Right?
Collect all resources thoroughly, drain completely, that's logical
