Chapter 2133 Day and Night
Space Stones were naturally silver in color, and completely weightless. They were also invisible to one's spiritual sense as a person's spiritual sense registered it as regular space instead of a natural object.
Space stones were very difficult to find. Most Space stones that were around were tiny ones, no larger than the a grain of rice. Even at that size, they held a lot of stone.
Alex didn't know how, but he knew that people could turn those Space stones into usable artifacts like rings or necklace, which could then hold a lot of items within it.
While a Space Stone did hold a lot of natural space within it, it couldn't be used before it was refined into an artifact. Afterward, however, depending on the quality of the refinement process, only part of it could be used.
Most artifacts, as per senior Yang's words, could only use between 10 to 20 percent of the total space in a space stone. The color of such space stones barely turned deeper than a shade of blue. Purple held more space and Red held even more than that. Finally, black Space stone artifacts had the most usable amount of space within it. The one Alex had found had been a red Space stone, made even possibly by the Sky God herself.
Alex looked at the Space Stone with a bit of an awe to his face. He wasn't the only one. There were many people that noticed it as it was placed openly in the protection of the many men in blue armor.
'Are they not afraid someone will steal it,' Alex thought before looking at the soldiers. Yeah, there was little chance of that happening with so many of them there.
Not that getting a space stone alone would help anyone in the first place. They needed to be able to use it as well, which Alex wasn't sure just about anyone could.
He pulled his eyes away from the space stone a few moments later and walked over to the center of the 300 meter wide circular platform. Once he was at the center, he took a deep breath and waited.
"You came from a lower realm right?" Silvermist asked. "Then this won't be your first experience. It will be similar to how you arrived at this world."
Alex began feeling the air distort with a very strong teleportation aura around him. He looked toward his master, slightly confused. "The teleportation won't be simple? Are we—"
His words hung in his lips when the sky began tearing itself. It ripped apart, streaming into a thousand different colors.
Alex's eyes flashed purple for a moment and he was nearly blinded by the amount of silvery-white light in the sky. There was so much of Space being altered right on top of him that it was ridiculous.
Silvermist was correct. It was the exact same situation as when he broke through the Immortal realm as well.
From one continent to another, no mater how much he traveled within the same realm, the sun never changed positions in the sky. So, day and night as a concept was something that was the same no matter what.
The concept was so ingrained into him that he even believed it would transpire throughout the other realms as well. He was finally learning that it didn't.
"I see," Alex said. "Thank you for the explanation, senior. I seriously thought I lost some time or something."
"Was the time between your lower realm and the Myriad Spirit realm the same when you first came?" he asked.
Alex nodded. "It was daytime in both places. I never realized it was supposed to be different."
Grimsight nodded. "You encountered a coincidence and understood it as fact. Its no big deal. Just learn more and expand your horizon. Wait until you learn about the fact that time itself moves at a different rate within the many realms."
"Huh?" Alex asked. "I'm sorry what?"
Grimsight chuckled. "Something for you to learn about later. For now, let's leave."
Grimsight walked off, and Snowleaf followed. Silvermist walked next and Alex walked after them as he walked, he felt a little weird. There was a lightness to his steps that he couldn't explain exactly.
For some reason. He had less weight on him at the moment than it did back in the Myriad Spirit realm.
'Less gravity,' Alex thought, immediately recognizing the issue.
"Master, why is the gravity of this place so low?" he asked. "I feel nearly 10% lighter than usual."
Silvermist didn't answer directly. Instead, he only raised a single finger up, pointing toward the sky.
Alex followed the direction and looked up. In the night sky, he saw glittering stars, a half moon, and to his horrifying surprise, a massive hole of pure darkness.
There was an abyss in the sky, and Alex had no idea why.
