Mystical Journey

Panda Novel

Once an ordinary person possessed the ability to solidify, if he were to train for two hours today, his strength would gain an adaptive improvement. Even if he stopped training for the next one year, the increase in his strength would remain permanently. In other words, as long as an ordinary person trained consistently every day, the person’s body would sooner or later reach its limit that the universe could only tolerate. After that, the solidifying ability would then exist at its peak and it would never degenerate.

This was the most terrifying part of talents and powers. The more Garen understood its power, the more he was afraid of it. Later on, he even tried to not depend on his talents and powers as much as possible as he was still unable to figure out its specific source.

And now there was finally a clue to the origin of his powers.

“Absolutely.” Garen’s entire body was wrapped in the red light as he began to move forward swiftly.

“It’s definitely from the High-Dimensional Space, otherwise it would’ve been impossible to trigger the Black Hole that easily!”

Garen made a few guesses in his mind.

The sudden outburst of Garen’s talents and powers prevented him from using 自爆魂环, and also temporarily halted the threat and danger imposed by the Black Hole, but the situation was still not optimistic from his side.

As the force of advancing increased, the speed increased as well. Garen felt as if he was drowned in earth, as if he was moving among layers of rocks in the soil. The resistance was stronger as well as the red light started shaking. It seemed that some of the powers were not caught.

Garen started to panic. Once the red light disappears, he would not even have the chance to struggle anymore as he would be instantly turned into cosmic fertilizer by the horrifying flow of time around him.

Fortunately, a glimmer of light seemed to emerge in the darkness.

At the forefront, there was a faint white light and the red light became dinner. As it gradually weakened, Garen took the opportunity and rushed forward immediately.

Boom!!

A scarlet blood-red whip lashed over all of a sudden.

Garen was only able to have a good look when it got closer and he realized that it was not a whip, but a gigantic stream of lava. Floating across the stream were numerous living creatures that were moaning in pain. Some human, some non-human. They were all naked, their bodies scorching black as they drowned in misery in the corrosive waters.

The scarlet red river close to Garen was emitting a ghastly attractive force, but as the red streak of light suddenly accelerated, the force merely rushed over instead, leaving the river far behind.

Soon, an enormous white-golden disc followed suit, zooming by the top of Garen’s head. The white-golden disk, too, had a powerful and alarming attractive force. It was also filled with numerous dignified castles, flying giant beasts, a large majestic army, and a choir that was singing praise.

The red light along with Garen accelerated once more, darting forward.

The white light in front was getting closer and closer. Garen could even see that the white shade actually just seemed to be a thick layer of plastic-like light membrane.

“Ladia… Ladia…” Soon enough, a bunch of galaxy-like vortexes slowly emerged at the left side, sending out subtle ear-piercing hums that emitted an even more horrifying attractive force, attempting to draw Garen over from the red light. However, the red light accelerated one last time, leaving it far behind.

At this moment, the red light has weakened to its limit, only a thin layer remained.

Garen was worried that it could no longer sustain itself and just explode straight away.

He then only noticed that his body had completely melted for some time already, and all that was left was his soul. The four Soul Rings rotated slowly around him, overlapping each other as they let out a bright, colorless fluorescent light.

And compared to before, his Soul Ring was slightly more condensed as if it just went through the previous process. The structure of his Soul Ring was now more stable and the original Middle Level-Demon Lord’s rickety base situation was now solved.

As soon as the white light membrane got closer and closer, Garen felt that his Soul Ring began to shrink rapidly. It became smaller and smaller until it was pocket-sized, becoming one full size smaller than its original size.

Finally, the red light wrapped around him crashed into the thin white membrane.

Boom!!

The crash seemed to explode in his ear.

White light flashed before his eyes and nothing could be seen at all. Garen had completely lost all means of perception.

The white light faded rapidly in front of his eyes and Garen felt as if he had broken a layer of membrane. He then straight away rushed into a brand new space that was more viscous and stronger.

The time flow here was a hundred times faster than the original one. He could clearly sense that the time flying by was tearing up his soul. Right this moment, the red light had completely lost its function of protecting him, hence why he could sense the time flow in the external world.

“So this is the High-Dimensional Universe?” With a slight hint of curiosity and in inexplicable awe, Garen extended his perception and looked outside.

In the dark endless space, appearing right before Garen’s eyes was a bunch of colorful substances that resembled seaweed, floating in the black space.

There was light moving about above the bunch of substances. Some spots were dark, some spots were blue, and some spots were an eye-catching red, but most of the spots were the yellow earth and the blue sea water.

It seemed to be a hefty Sand Table Projection of a world.

Garen found plenty of small disc-like pieces on the top. The pieces were slowly rotating like the gears of a machine, precise yet heavy. They were also all of different sizes and shades of color.

Around the discs were a lot of silk-like tattered colored materials, and some were even fluttering.

Whereas at this moment, he was moving ahead at high speed with the help of the red light’s final inertia, heading straight toward the seaweed-like world.

The bunch of substances itself already had a strong attractive force and as he gradually closed in, the world’s attractive force seemed to become bigger and stronger.

Swoosh!

Garen lost all his senses instantly and he fell into complete darkness. It was as if his speed accelerated to its limits, entering a state similar to teleportation. Suddenly, he entered an unpredictable situation.

Lighthouse

“Is Sword Master His Excellency still resting?” In the High Hall, a tall man dressed in a white robe walked out of the Teleportation Point slowly as he asked a lady who was also dressed in a white robe.

“Yes, Your Excellency.” The lady responded respectfully and stepped aside, revealing Garen who was sitting still behind her, leaning against the wall with his eyes closed.

Garen still appeared to be asleep. His eyes were shut tight, his complexion ruddy, as usual, nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary.

The man in the white robe’s face was shrouded in a clear light. He cast a glance toward and snorted as if he noticed something.

“No.”

He strode forward.

“Garen, Your Excellency.” He reached out and pressed on Garen’s shoulder.

Hiss…

In an instant, Garen’s entire body toppled over like a sandstorm, turning into countless beads of sand scattering all over the ground.

The lady was stunned and the man in white robe blanked out.

He quickly retracted his arm and went silent for a moment. After a while, he slowly spoke.

“Garen, His Excellency, I can’t feel the presence of his soul at all. His body has been completely withered and turned to sand, even all his life energy has been completely drained.”

The lady covered her mouth as she stared at him in disbelief.

“How is that possible!? He… He’s only seen the Mother Stream source once…!”

“Although I’m not willing to believe this, but it is what it is.” The man sighed in a low tone. “Garen has fallen. Notify the control team of Lighthouse to lower the flag…”

He showed an expression of sympathy.

“How unfortunate, a prodigy powerhouse… Perhaps this was an accident… As for the calling of the true source, maybe Garen was a bit too overconfident.”

*******************

Darkness…

Darkness remained and nothing could be seen.

When Garen woke up from his coma, he did not know how long he had been unconscious. He could feel that his Soul Ring seemed to be slightly cracked, but fortunately, it was still much better than before so there was no major loss.

The feedback from the surrounding powers indicated that he seemed to have stabilized, and the surrounding universe space rules were unusually stable to the point where people could boil in anger. If the rules of the Four Great Cornerstones world were said to be abnormal already, then the stability of the rules here was basically ten times stronger.

Nothing was in sight in the surroundings but Garen could feel that he seemed to be in an oval-shaped space. The space was small enough just for him to stay alone, but the troublesome thing was that there was a small meaty object that was snuggled up beside him. Unsure as to what was it, Garen slightly wriggled his body according to its movements.

This small little thing clearly occupied Garen’s activity space.

Garen could feel his actual body. He tried to hold his hand out but due to the complete darkness, he was unable to see both his hands. However, he could still sense the slow movements of his hands.

“I guess I’ve reincarnated again…” He came to a conclusion. According to his sense of touch, his hands did not feel like the palms of a human being, but something like a bird’s. There were three fingers in the front and one at the back, the tips of his fingers were sharp yet soft, obviously not fully grown yet.

In the darkness, Garen stretched out his claws and squeezed the small meaty object toward the corner. When he finally occupied the large space, he began to explore his current body shape carefully with his small claws.

He touched his legs, which seemed to be in the same position as his hands, his muscle lines were evident. He had no human toes, but the same four toes that were sharp at the tip yet still soft.

Touching his back, he could feel that something seemed to be moving on his back.

As he reached out with his claws, he indeed felt two fan-like things curled up clinging to his back. As his claws felt it, it was just like the feeling of touching his back ribs.

Besides that, Garen felt that his neck seemed a little too long.

His entire neck was one-third of his entire body length. There even something moving behind his butt.

This made him shudder for a bit.

“Is this a deformity!?”

No, it could not be. He quickly calmed himself down. In his four Soul Rings state, even if he was in the High-Dimensional Universe, the meaty object at the side would be a good enough contrast, no? That little guy was obviously a Soul Level-Soul Seed. In other words, even if it was not for the gap in their qualities, his powers were practically twenty times of this little thing beside him. Not to mention that his Soul Ring had a huge different qualitative change in powers in comparison to general Soul Seeds. Even if the wisps of powers were compiled together, there would still be a vast difference in terms of quality.

Garen felt a chill in his heart. He tried to release his Soul Energy to explore the situation outside the space but the oval-shaped hard wall was very strong and his Soul Energy was unable to penetrate through them. After multiple attempts, he gave up.

Moreover, he even found out that once his powers separated from his body, it would be exceedingly tough to unleash it.
