Chapter 1799: Chapter 824: A Beautiful Tomorrow (3)

Perhaps, this is humanity’s future.

With Rod as the link.

"Sir Rod."

Rhein looked at him with eyes like gazing at the rising sun, "Do you need any help during your search?"

Rod smiled and said, "If I need anything, I’ll let you know."

Rhein extended his hand, "It’s a deal."

"It’s a deal."

The two hands clasped tightly together, like two civilizations embracing each other.

We all have a beautiful future.

At this moment, the same thought emerged in both their minds.

The position of the Dream Fragment is not far.

According to the display from the Heavenly Sphere Clock, it should be deep within the Dark Great Plain, in a gobi covered by thick Black Fog.

The direct distance is about 10,000 kiloyards.

Of course, to the former Trolian, this was a very distant journey, considered the "extreme depths of the Dark World."

But after establishing contact with Saint Longde, he heard and spoke of distances of hundreds of thousands of kiloyards.

With this comparison, 10,000 kiloyards seemed not so far anymore.

In fact, without the obstruction of Black Fog, Rod could set up his Spirit Boat and rush to the location within half a clock hour at most.

However, the obstruction to speed by Black Fog is enormously great, the thicker the Black Fog, the more so.

Because the faster the speed, the more Black Fog one crashes into, and once the erosion exceeds a certain limit, even fire would extinguish.

Therefore, the movement speed of someone strong in the Black Fog is actually determined by the Strength of their own protection.

It’s no wonder Rhein consumed most of his Spiritual Energy traveling from Saint Longde to Trolian.

After awakening the [Bright Red Tears], Rod gained the ability to directly protect against Black Fog erosion, supported by Spiritual Energy; the more Spiritual Energy input, the stronger the protection effect.

Thus, for a long time, when Rod traveled, he didn’t carry the Red Tear Stone or the lantern or Guardian Fire.

But this time was different; to be cautious, Rod still brought a lantern containing the Guardian Fire.

Sure enough, after penetrating into the Dark Great Plain, the concentration of Black Fog sharply increased, quickly reaching the level of Source Black Fog, and this was not the end; there are vast differences in Strength even among Source Black Fogs.

According to Rhein, the older the Black Fog, the stronger it is; the most primordial Black Fog can even extinguish Holy Fire, and even primordial strong beings entering it may perish.

Although Rod did not encounter such terrifying Black Fog, he clearly felt the space around him gradually becoming deeper and darker.

True, undiluted Black Fog is as dark as Space itself.

Their diffusion is like darkening a patch of Space.

And at this moment, Rod felt as if flying in the depths of the universe, the dark Space completely shrouding him, an exceedingly terrifying distortion force incessantly eroding his protective red light.

Soon, Rod found out that [Bright Red Tears] were barely holding up.

He had to inject all his Spiritual Energy to prevent the Black Fog erosion, but doing so would make flying impossible.

Out of necessity, he had to take out the lantern containing Guardian Fire from the Dream Realm.

The instant the firelight illuminated him, Rod felt the infinite pressure disappear instantly, though the firelight could not extend beyond his body’s boundary, with its assistance, the red glow of [Bright Red Tears] greatly intensified.

Rod felt he only needed a tenth of his Spiritual Energy to withstand Black Fog erosion.

"Is this fire?"

For the first time, Rod recognized so deeply the significance of its existence.

All the means to fight against Black Fog are not one-tenth as effective as it.

The Book of Knowledge whispered, "Perhaps, that is why the Fire Epoch replaced the Ancient Epoch."

Rod nodded, hooking the lantern to his waist.

Under the protection of the Guardian Fire and [Bright Red Tears], he increased his speed again, heading towards the target.

day later.

Rod finally arrived at the coordinates displayed by the "Heavenly Sphere Clock."

Surveying the surroundings, the Eye of the Soul’s vision was less than 100 yards, all engulfed by infinite darkness, yet unable to sever his connection with the Dream Fragment.

"It’s right here."

The Book of Knowledge shouted.

"Except for special shielding, nothing can block the perception between the Dream Realm and the Dream Fragment!"

Rod felt the call within his Soul, walking towards that direction.
