Chapter 2043 Give A Try
Rean looked at the same wall as he was more interested in another issue. "That's good and all. But... how do we get past this thing? We obviously can't fly, and I refuse to believe there is a way underground, either."
Kentucky began to fly to the right side as he followed the wall. "What else can we do? We can only look for an entrance. I'm more curious about who built this thing."
"That's true," Roan agreed with Luan. "We thought that the swamp came into existence because of the Fragment of the Universe. But now that this wall is here, perhaps things aren't that simple." He continued. "Of course, it could also be because this wall was already here even before the Fragment fell into this place, but I found it more likely that this wall was built for the Fragment inside."
[That's considering there is a Fragment inside.] Sister Orb took the opportunity to warn them. [So far, the system hasn't shown any reactions to a possible Fragment.]
Luan looked at the wall. "Probably because this wall is blocking everything. Not even my Elemental Eyes can see through it. How are your Divine Senses? Can they get past it?"
Rean, Roan, Celis, and Kentucky immediately shook their heads. "No. Whatever this thing is made of, it isn't allowing our Divine Senses through."
They weren't very surprised by that. They had seen many formations and items in the past that could block Divine Sense. It just meant this wall was made of similar materials, and that could also be blocking the System's Senses toward the Fragment.
"Well, there is a piece of good news," Luan suddenly mentioned. "There is no need to keep the Spatial Field anymore. This wall is controlling the s.p.a.ce-Time Flow, but it is making the phenomenons like the Direction Senses Loss and Repealing Effect start a few kilometers away from it. The only thing that is still being affected at the moment is the time speed."
Rean's group then stopped using their Soul Origin Energy, making the Spatial Field disappear straight away. "At least we don't need to stop every few days to recover. We won't get lost with this wall here, either."
"Kentucky, just focus on using your energy to fly now. We need to cover as much distance as possible to find an entrance."
Kentucky didn't mind. "Alright, leave it to me."
Kentucky's energy immediately filled his wings, and his speed increased several times. Celis also took the opportunity to return to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm to continue his cultivation now that they didn't need him anymore.
Just like that, several days went by in a flash. Now that they couldn't get lost, they were able to tell that they were not flying in circles. The wall was truly that enormous. It's just that they didn't know how long it would take to make a complete round around it.
There were still no Demon Beasts here, either. If anything, the area around the wall seemed completely deserted and identical. Fortunately, they didn't need to care about it for too long. On the 17th day, since they began to fly by the wall's side, Kentucky finally picked something in the distance with his eyes. "Oh! Seems like we are here."
Not too long after, Rean and the others also noticed the same thing. It was a gate on the wall. It wasn't that big when you take the wall's size into consideration, but it was definitely enough for even Kentucky to pa.s.s through with his true form. Well, the only problem was that it was closed.
However, just as they approached the gate...
*Blup...*
They suddenly felt like they had pa.s.sed through some wall of water. For a moment, their movements became sluggish, and they couldn't turn back at all.
*Blup...*
A second later, they left that environment and appeared right in front of the gate. "This... what was it just now?"
Luan once again activated his Elemental Pupils and looked back. Only then did he see the difference. "It seems like some kind of Spatial Membrane. We have just got past it. Still, it doesn't seem like it had any kind of offensive power."
Roan jumped from Kentucky's back and flew close to that Spatial Membrane. He touched it and felt the s.p.a.ce around his hand stretched forward. Yet, he felt like the Spatial Membrane was forcing his hand back the further he pushed his hand until he finally couldn't move it anymore. "Seems like this Spatial Membrane allows entrance but not exit."
Rean also tested the Spatial Membrane and asked. "Should we attack it?"
Roan nodded. "It's better to see if we have a way to retreat before we try to do anything to that gate."
Everyone agreed, and they tried to get through the Spatial Membrane. Too bad it didn't work. Whether they used attacks or Rean used formations, nothing seemed to work against that Membrane. It was a weird thing. It didn't matter the strength of the attack. The Membrane acted exactly the same way as if the attacks used against it were all identical.
Meanwhile, Luan kept focusing on the chances of the Spatial Membrane, trying to find any clues. It wasn't before two days of trials and errors that he finally called it out. "Father, there is no point continuing anymore. It's not that this barrier is too strong, but that our understanding of s.p.a.ce Power is too limited. From what I could see, this is not the kind of obstacle that can be overcome with pure strength."
Roan put his White Scythe away and nodded. "I was thinking the same. I can't see what you can, but I can feel it. We will most likely need some grasp of Spatial Laws to work on this thing. That's not something we can achieve at our level."
Roan and the others then turned to the gate a few hundred meters away. "Well, we can only give this guy a try now."
