Chapter 9: The Astral Plane

Whether it was Ye Qi and his party, or the Blood Alliance Tower, they all sensed the people following behind them; However, no one would bother with the other party - a day ago, except for the Blood Alliance Tower, the death of the remaining Transcendent Realm Legendary powerhouses on the other side of the bridge had nothing to stop Ye Qi's footsteps.

To put it simply, Ye Qi has the right to say everything on the bridge on the other side.

It's the same as Koska, if not stronger!

Koska only ruled in the shadows, while Ye Qi intervened completely directly, and announced his presence in a very simple way—or rather a coming, which could have been; In fact, Ye Qi doesn't like the word 'advent', which always makes him think of something related to the Holy See inexplicably, but for the people of the bridge on the other side, Ye Qi came abruptly like this.

And, unstoppable.

Ye Qi walked on the largest floating platform on the bridge on the other side, and he could clearly feel the awe and even a trace of fear in the eyes that were thrown at him—Ye Qi was satisfied with this; After all, what he did next, respect alone was not enough.

The breaking of an inherent thing must come at the cost of blood.

Fortunately, such a price was advanced in advance!

Ye Qi once again thanked the former Pope Koska in his heart - he not only gave 'people' and warnings, but also deepened his own concepts, making it effortless for him to take over the bridge on the other side, only need strong strength as the foundation, and everything will become natural.

In fact, after really coming into contact with the bridge on the other side, Ye Qi seems to have somewhat understood the Hart brothers who chose to stay away - the other party's performance without any strong heart. It also becomes reasonable; After all. That's what Koska is after. What this former pope needs is a flock of obedient 'sheep', not proud 'lions'.

Of course, it would take unimaginable effort and time to turn a group of 'lions' into a flock of sheep, and it took Pope Koska nearly three hundred years to accomplish such a thing, but it was accepted smoothly by Ye Qi - the reason why it was almost because of this 'obedient' crowd. Ye Qi can still feel some of the stubbornness that exists.

In this regard, Ye Qi did not oppose or stifle.

For Ye Qi, who has successfully accepted what Koska has left behind, the other party's concept is not his concept, but it is just in line with what he wants to do now - in short, after that maybe difficult time, everything will change a little.

And such a change is destined not to take too long.

Destruction is always faster than construction.

Ye Qi has always thought so.

"What do you seem to be thinking, Lord Ye Qi?"

The leader of the elven bloodline walked beside Ye Qi and looked at Ye Qi thoughtfully. Asked slowly—that graceful voice seemed to have magical power. It attracted the attention of the men around him and made them feel intoxicated; Of course, there are also several ladies' eyes, but in these ladies' eyes, they are full of vigilance.

"That half-elf is the leader of the Blood Alliance Tower?"

The female cavalry leader looked at the leader of the elven bloodline with doubts in her eyes.

"It should be, and, more importantly, she's a big beauty!"

The chameleon nodded, and there was a hint of wariness in his words that only the three ladies around him could understand.

Compared with these four ladies, the men around them are much more 'comfortable'-

"Ava, you won't forget Fia, will you? If you look at it like this, Fia will cry! ”

The little man laughed at his friend.

Of course, although it is a joke, it is also based on facts; In fact, when the leader of the elven bloodline appeared in front of them before, Ava's gaze couldn't be taken away; However, there were no distracting thoughts in his eyes, and it was very pure, like a crystal clear stream.

Ava withdrew his gaze from the elven bloodline leader - although the natural aura of the other party had an inexplicable attraction to him, a half-druid, Ava could still distinguish the true lover in his heart; However, when it comes to his friends, Ava doesn't turn a blind eye.

If it was Ye Qi or the big man, Ava would just smile.

However, if it was a small man, Ava thought he needed to refute it—if he didn't, such words would inevitably appear in Fia's ears; Maybe it won't cause much trouble, but wouldn't it be better if we could nip it in the bud?

Therefore, Ava looked at the little man and said slowly, "I will tell you that you are calling another woman's name in your dream; It seems to be called Ai, Ai ......"

Without waiting for Ava to finish his name, the little man pounced, covered Ava's mouth, and said in a tone full of pleading: "Don't, don't, don't say it!" ”

"Looks like Irene!"

The big man who was not restricted by anything scratched his head and said honestly.

"Uh...... Darlan, can you please put your memory at the usual level at this time! The little man lowered his hands weakly, and whispered in a tone that was almost about to die in the next moment: "This matter must not make the Nine Nights Knowing the Dao!" Do you understand? ”

The big man nodded.

Ava didn't have an opinion, but he asked the doubt in his heart: "Who is that Irene?" ”

"First Love...... The kind that ends without a problem! ”

The little man had a strange sadness on his face, which made Ava stunned, and then gave him a quick tap on the shoulder—he was clearly recalling the weakness of his friend when they were apprentices and had first arrived in Shak.

Undoubtedly, this was the story of that time.

The big man scratched his head, trying to comfort his friend, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of any way, and in the end, he could only learn from Ava's appearance. He patted his friend on the shoulder.

"Thanks!"

The little man whispered. Then. Just looking at the people on the bridge on the other side of the river, he couldn't help but whistle: "Tsk, the charm of our allies is really great, isn't it?" ”

After another deep cooperation, Ye Qi signed a series of covenants with the Blood Alliance Tower; So, now the two sides are allies.

"Some nasty guys!"

After the big man glanced around, he gave this assessment - although he did not have a keen eye, the big man had a keen perception.

To put it simply. He can't tell if a person is good or bad, but he can sense whether a person has bad intentions.

And at this moment, in the special perception of the big man, the aura emanating from the surrounding crowd made him feel disgusted.

Ava agreed.

"O our pure Darlan!"

The little man smiled and exclaimed—for a friend who didn't even have an accurate understanding of women, he certainly wouldn't explain the difference.

As for Ava?

The little man silently recited in his heart, 'Fake serious guy'!

Of course, in view of his first love, he just silently recited a few words in his heart.

A group of people, walking like this, the leader of the elven bloodline. It seems that he has long been accustomed to such attention, and nothing moves at all. Just like that.

As the largest floating platform on the bridge on the other side, it is no less than the size of an ordinary town, even compared to the headquarters of the Shak Witcher, it is not inferior; It's just that there aren't too many buildings, at most just some scattered stone houses, most of which are made of stone, and it seems a bit difficult for ordinary people to complete a house with such building materials.

However, for an existence that is at least a solar level, it is really too simple.

Some of these stone houses are gathered in groups, while others are alone, but compared to the former, the latter is very rare, almost reaching the level of 10:1 - Ye Qi naturally knows this, and the set of dueling rules that Kirska has come up with is destined to be like this.

Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimp.

Of course, it is not the 'big fish' that appear on this largest platform, not even the 'small fish', at most some dried shrimp.

Those real 'big fish' and 'small fish' have their own floating platform, and only these 'homeless' shrimp will choose to settle here - however, this is not a big sign of weakness, just different beliefs.

At the very least, along the way, Ye Qi's [Blind Fighting Perception] has appeared more than one Solar level of the half-step Legendary Powerhouse Realm who is about to step into the transcendent realm.

Compared to those who came down from the various floating platforms, the Solar class was just that.

These Solar Classes here are undoubtedly much more powerful.

And this is not surprising, the choice is doomed to the end result.

However, it was only the induction of [Blind Fighting Perception], Ye Qi did not touch the other party, he followed behind the leader of the elf bloodline and continued to move forward.

After passing through the similar residential area, a larger, open space appeared in front of Ye Qi.

"This is ......"

Ye Qi looked at the emptiness around him, and the Solar Level of the Bridge on the Other Shore that had been following behind him stopped for the most part, and only a few of them followed; Especially those who stopped didn't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, and even those who followed were gritting their teeth, as if they had made up some kind of determination.

Die generously?

Ye Qi felt the breath of the solar level that had come up from a few, and he was even more puzzled in his heart.

However, the leader of the Blood Alliance Tower, immediately, gave him an explanation-

"Your Excellency Ye Qi, do you see there?"

The leader of the elven bloodline pointed to the end of this empty place, where there was darkness; Even with Ye Qi's eyes, he could only see what seemed to be some glitter in it.

"See!"

Ye Qi nodded naturally.

"That's the bridgehead for finding and opening up half-planes, plane fragments! As for their appearance...... "The leader of the elven bloodline paused deliberately when he said this, and a look of disdain appeared on his delicate face, "They are afraid of death - although this place is still under the protection of the bridge on the other side, there is already a turbulence in the astral boundary, and if you are accidentally caught in it, you will be directly lost in the astral boundary!" ”

"Astral ......"

Ye Qi frowned. He muttered in a low voice.

About. The word astral plane. Ye Qi is no stranger, even quite familiar; After all, several books in the Tower of Wisdom have descriptions of the 'Astral Boundary'.

However, the content of the description is different.

Astral Boundary, in several books Ye Qi has seen, more than sixty percent of the descriptions refer to the Astral Boundary as a passage. It's just very special, it's a space between planes, and when someone passes through a plane portal or projects themselves onto another plane, they have to pass through the astral plane.

Even those abilities that can travel directly to a certain plane have to temporarily touch the astral plane—this is a supplement to the monster wolf; It's just that the strange wolf is noncommittal about the above statement; And it is precisely because of this non-committal that Ye Qi is a little skeptical about this statement that occupies the most.

Turning to other statements, among the other statements, he believed in two-

One, the astral plane is the most unique place in the multiverse; It is a completely spiritual realm. The spiritual power makes up everything there; Traveling here changes a guy, maybe forever; There was no time there. Age, hunger, thirst, poison, and natural recovery.

However, there is death.

Terrible enemies, great dangers, and wonderful riches can all be found in this spiritual realm!

As a result, the travelers of the planes and the exiles of other planes alike regard the astral plane as their home—the home of adventure.

Second, the astral plane itself is also a plane, a place akin to a prison, a garbage dump, or even a place of exile; It is infinitely large, and grows so large that no being can reach out to the edge and make any signs, as if you need to see the light in the darkness to be able to determine where you can be.

However, it is a pity that by entering the astral plane, you have become blind; What is the purpose of a bright, dazzling light?

"This is a 'vascular tube' in the astral plane?"

Ye Qi asked.

"We're more used to calling it 'Touchpoint' - the name of the wizards from the Wizarding Dynasty!"

The leader of the elven bloodline glanced at Ye Qi in surprise, obviously surprised that Ye Qi would understand the astral boundary, but then she said with a smile: "Maybe there will be a 'vascular tube', but the original wizards didn't find it, and we didn't find it either, we only know that there is a 'contact' here in the Dao that can enter the astral boundary!" ”

"Half-planes and plane fragments are in the astral plane, right?"

Ye Qi asked the answer that was about to come out.

"Well, in the boundless astral boundary, I don't know where the edge of the Dao is!"

The leader of the elven bloodline nodded, and at the same time, as he spoke, the leader of the Blood Alliance Tower, continued to walk forward, and Ye Qi, who got the answer, shrugged his shoulders helplessly and naturally followed behind - even if he was mentally prepared, but in the face of such an answer, Ye Qi still had a trace of helplessness.

After all, he was well aware of the difficulties that such an answer would bring.

At the same time, it also shows that in the system taskbar, there is a large list of tasks starting with [S] because of what happened!

In response, Ye Qi shrugged his shoulders again.

After about fifteen minutes, they came to the end of the empty place—here, a blue mist-like presence floated before them, so beautiful that it made people want to touch it; However, none of the people present did so, and even those of the Solar Class who were still following behind could sense the danger.

Or rather, the danger behind that azure mist.

"It's one of the masterpieces of wizards - I still don't know exactly how it works, but it's the heart of the bridge beyond!" The leader of the Elven Bloodline said, "The existence and operation of the bridge on the other side are all done by relying on this core—even the search for half-planes and plane fragments needs its help!" ”

"Of course, only a small part of the help! It can only give you a 'hint' of the return trip, but it can't determine the route or destination for you! The leader of the elven bloodline looked at the azure in front of him, slightly distracted; However, Ye Qi understood the meaning of such words.

"To put it simply, after leaving here, whether we can come back depends on whether we can find a half-plane or plane fragment and then connect with 'it'!" Ye Qi said.

"Well, that's basically it - just go through the plane anchor. It's good to be a 'sensor'! ”

The leader of the elven bloodline nodded again.

"What if you can't find a half-plane or a fragment of a plane?"

The little man hugged his shoulders. Asked suddenly.

"Then you can only wander around the astral plane—there's no time, there's no hunger!" The leader of the elven bloodline explained slowly. "This is what a legendary powerhouse who has traveled in the astral plane for nearly three hundred years said; Although, for us, it's basically just static! ”

"That is, no matter how long it takes to be there, we won't change here? Wouldn't that be easy? ”

The big man asked stunned - for the big man, if the time here was the same, then he didn't mind spending a lot of time helping his friends find those half-planes and plane fragments.

"It's not that simple!"

Compared with the optimism of the big man, the little man's face unconsciously became serious - if that was the case, the entire bridge on the other side would not only have twelve half-planes.

"That's right! But. There is no time, no hunger, but there is danger! The leader of the elven bloodline took a deep look at the little man, and said lightly, "It is enough for an existence like ours to disappear in an instant, and if you want to continue to live, you need to avoid that danger - however, according to the experience of thousands of years, there is no chance of success at all!" ”

"To put it simply. Once we encounter the so-called danger, are we dead? ”

Ye Qi tapped the handle of the knife lightly a few times. Asked slowly.

"That's right!"

The leader of the elven bloodline replied in the affirmative.

"So, what are those dangers?"

Ye Qi continued to ask.

"I don't know what to do!"

The leader of the elven bloodline replied dryly.

Ye Qi and his party were stunned, especially Ye Qi - according to the description of the astral boundary in those books, someone must have encountered the danger in the astral realm, and then, when they returned again, recorded it.

However, it was obviously impossible for the leader of the elven bloodline in front of him to deceive him-

In other words, people who have encountered danger have never returned, so it is naturally impossible to know what the danger is!

So, those books are all 'nonsense'?

"Books can be traced back to before the Wizarding Dynasty was founded, and the establishment here is the work of wizards!" The leader of the elven bloodline seemed to see what Ye Qi was thinking, "Those books should have been left by the wizards—and only they can do it!" ”

After hearing such an explanation, Ye Qi felt as if a lightning bolt had crossed his heart, and he couldn't help but whisper: "That's right, wizard!" ”

Although Ye Qi deliberately suppressed his voice, those who were familiar with Ye Qi understood that Ye Qi should have thought of something—otherwise, how could there be a surprised tone in this affirmative answer?

However, correspondingly, whether it is Ye Qi's friends or the ladies around Ye Qi, they are all quite smart characters, and they will definitely not ask something like 'Ye, what do you know?' at this time. ''Ye, what did you guess?'' It's not that secrets can't be shared, but they also need to be said on a case-by-case basis.

And now, although the Blood Alliance Tower is an ally, the Solar Tier who is following the bridge behind them is not an ally!

Although the other party concealed it well, among the few people with keen perception, it was not difficult to find that these Solar Levels were unwelcome to them in the depths of their eyes.

The leader of the elven bloodline also seems to have discovered Ye Qi's strangeness; However, the leader of the Blood Alliance Tower didn't ask anything, just said lightly: "After seeing the 'Contact Point' again, our banquet should be able to continue, right?" ”

"Of course!"

Ye Qi nodded with a smile.

A smart ally is enough to make people satisfied, especially when the other party is still very interesting.

Soon Ye Qi and the Blood Alliance Tower and his party returned the same way, causing the Solar Classists who had been following them to frown-

Is it really just a matter of looking at the 'touchpoints'?

They wondered in their hearts.

PS The first update ~~~ timing~~~

Decadence is adjusting the schedule, but it is clear that it is not very successful - I went to bed early yesterday, but after a while of confusion, I began to fall asleep, tossing and turning back and forth in bed; Eventually, Decadence got up again and turned on the computer......

I told myself in my heart that it would only take a while—and as a result, two hours had passed, and it was past four o'clock in the morning!

Decadent looked at the silent passage of time, and threw himself on the bed with tears in his eyes; Then, I slept until 11 o'clock in the morning, and was hurriedly called up on the phone and went out......

It seems to be no different from usual, and it seems to be more tired - pit!! (To be continued......)
