Chapter 149: The Aether Plane
Research and discovery has always been a process from shallow to deep, which determines that the understanding of all intelligent beings always develops from shallow to deep, from special to universal, and Chen Ang is no exception. Just like the foundation of physics, Newton's three laws, a perfect, universal system of mechanics based on the limits of what can be observed by human beings, were once considered universal truths.
However, in fact, the scope of its application is the surface environment of low-gravity planets, or planetary environments that are less than a thousand times different from the mass of the earth, and in the universe, there are about 1 in 100 billion environments, and this theorem applies.
If we look at a wider space, in the space that human beings can know, there is about an astronomical denominator that allows its numerator to be slightly closer to Newton's mechanics. This is a scientific system tailored for human civilization! And it's just a cosmic disagreement.
The Torrell Universe, or the entire multiverse, is a completely different world, and its laws are so different that they are enough to subvert the entire knowledge system that Chen Ang knows! Of course, because the difference between the laws of the two worlds is not serious, this astonishing divergence does not manifest itself, but it exists in fact and cannot be erased.
However, even if the difference between Faeron and the earth is expanded by a thousand times, and the gap between the two understandings deepens by ten thousand times, it is impossible to confuse Chen Ang's understanding of space, because in terms of personality, Chen Ang, who shuttles between other worlds, is higher than the spatial level of the multiverse. Chen Ang, who can travel through various worlds, deconstructs space above the entire multiverse.
Perhaps it is a little lacking in breadth. But no one can match it in depth, which is the convenience brought by high-latitude shuttles.
Hylaste saw that Chen Ang disappeared in front of his eyes like this. The 'Teleportation Foreknowledge' didn't even work in the slightest, as if the person in front of him was not using a teleportation spell, but was invisible. But by the mage's instincts, he believed that Chen Ang had disappeared into this plane, even though the magic web and the Teleportation Foreknowledge did not warn.
Watch as Chen Ang's shadow fades little by little, like colored ink dots spreading in water, blurring outlines and shapes. In the end, like a hazy light and shadow, it disappeared into the flickering firelight.
The vigilance in Helast's heart was raised to the highest: it was not an avatar. It wasn't the vaporization of the form, it wasn't the teleportation, it wasn't the ...... of the shelter, he meditated in his mind about the possible effects of the spell. And quickly towards Chen Ang's location. Unleashed a 'reading magic', but it turned out to be nothing.
"It's a supernatural force about teleportation!" Hylaste said to herself.
He had to admit that he had underestimated this mysterious man from a distance, and the long-lost sense of urgency had made his skin feel cold and shivering like a sharp blade, which not only did not confuse his mind, but gave him a sharper and clearer mind. In his body, the passion that belonged to the mage was boiling.
A long ballad came out of Hylast's mouth. It was a muffled murmur, a slurred pronunciation, and a strange emphasis. It's very eerie and weird in the dark. The famous mad mage, his face twitching, nervously looking at the place where Chen Ang had disappeared, with a feverish and strange smile on his face, he muttered syllables that no one could understand, and dragged his robe closer to it.
"Hah! Found you! Helast activated several protective items on his body, and with a mysterious smile, approached the location where Chen Ang had disappeared, "I'm going to catch you"
A blue mist streaked through Hylast's fingertips, ...... secret of the arcane lies in the wisdom that goes deep into the bottom of the world, those who only use the wisdom of their predecessors, like tools, to manipulate spells, are only worthy of being a spellcaster like a warlock and a golem. Not a weaver who weaves magic, or an arcane who searches for truth.
Hylast, undoubtedly one of the world's top arcanists, despite his profession as a mage, undoubtedly has the mind to touch the essence of the world, enough to peel through the complex and ridiculous shells and penetrate the primordial inner essence. The same prophecy spell, in the eyes of Hylast, the essence of the etheric plane is being removed little by little.
Illusions that represent certain qualities of all things, under Helast's hands, have shed their distorted shells, revealing the relative qualities of the surrounding matter and magic, discarding those distorted, divergent infections and diffusions, revealing the nature of matter's projection on the aetheric plane.
The etheric plane is a mirror, showing the relatively hidden essence and inner nature of the material world, in time and space, those invisible, appearing, not appearing, and the essence that is difficult to discover in the material world is reflected by it, intertwined with the essence of the ether, presenting a strange and hidden illusion.
Hylaste believes that his knowledge of this world is not inferior to anyone, not even the gods, which is the arrogance and inflatability of the mage, but cannot be said without a bit of truth. But now, he didn't dare to say that. He followed in the footsteps of Aang Chen and entered a world he could not have imagined.
It's like looking in a mirror and seeing someone get in.
The material world, no, is the reflection of the multiverse in the etheric plane, these distorted illusions, unexpectedly stripped of the true essence, the "advanced flashing technique" allows him to flicker in the etheric plane and the material world, the colored mist, as early as the first flicker, has disappeared, and the distorted darkness and the phantom of the flame demon are his reflection in the material plane environment.
Demons, necromancers, ghosts, twisted corpses, and corrupt objects alternate with fire, darkness, sound, and normal objects, like the madness of two worlds.
With great wisdom, Helest had to analyze their essence, what they represented and reflected, the changes and essences of time, space, energy and matter, and he found that he had never really understood the world, and what he saw was only appearances, and that quality, material, and temperature were only superficial attributes.
The true essence of things is always beneath the deeper, darker surface of the sea, and all they can explore is the part of the dark ocean that is exposed, like an iceberg!
Chen Ang is at the deeper end of the etheric plane, like the deepest shadow in the mirror, wearing the simple white robe for experimentation, staring at the river flowing in front of him, in the etheric plane, the flowing things generally represent the essence of change, and the water, and often related to time, in the linguistics of magic, this represents the long river of time.
"It's fun, but that's about it!" Hylast shook her head, the green light of the 'Dissociation Technique' passed through Chen Ang's body and disappeared into the ether polymer.
"You think you know me, but you don't! You think you know the world, but you don't! You think you know magic, but alas, you still don't! You think it's the real me, but it's only part of me, it's magic, mysterious and deep, isn't it? Chen Ang smiled.
Helast lost his mind a little, his voice was distorted and low, his eyes were staring at Chen Ang in confusion, but the etiquette and language seemed calm and composed, not schizophrenia to a certain extent, but categorically unable to show this wonderful mental state, hovering between reason and madness, chaotic but not losing grace.
"The beauty of magic lies in its depth, and the mage's pleasure is to explore that depth. Thank you for bringing you here to see the deeper nature and change of all things. I must admit that you've left me a little helpless! ”
Chen Ang shook his head and said, "It won't be like this!" The mage is not a puppet to be pulled, and the wisdom of the mage to fight should not be reasonable, and the witty use of his own spells is the so-called 'wisdom' that both warriors and barbarians disdain, and the rational use of spells, combined with the environment, and the creative use of spells, which can only show wit, but not wisdom at all. ”
"This kind of wit is originally the quality that any qualified warrior must have, and it is far from being smart and cunning, let alone wise!"
Hylaste calmly asked: "Spells are never used to obtain destructive power, a mage, his power is always reflected in a wider field, a qualified mage, he must be a great lord, the owner of wealth, an important part of a force, power is the power of a mage!" Is that wisdom? ”
Chen Ang shook his head and said: "Such a mage can destroy a country, race, or even civilization, and can exert his power to a greater extent to change the entire world. But it can only be said to be cunning, far from wisdom! (To be continued......)
