Chapter 948: The Southern Continent
“Alright, I will be leaving then,” Ning said and walked out of the door. As he got out, he remembered something and turned around to say, “I’ll be gone for a few weeks. Don’t come looking for me if you are in trouble, I won’t be around.”
With that, Ning left the capital, leaving not a single explanation behind for what he meant by his last few sentences.
Ning arrived back at his Uncle’s place and went on to have some food.
The news continued saying things regarding the incident in America, but things had settled down by now people were no longer praying for them, only mourning.
The time was already too late, so the supper Ning ate became dinner merely by the time of it as the sun was already setting by the time he was eating.
Once they were done eating, he finally got ready to leave.
“Listen to her in my absence,” Ning said. “She’s the oldest one here.”
Saphandra nodded with a cross arm as Ning pointed at her. Hi-Ah and Jung-Hee looked confused, wondering just how young she was.
“Alright, take care of yourselves for the next few weeks, I will be leaving now,” Ning said and waved goodbye to his family.
“Master, I can’t come with you?” Sorlus asked.
“There’s no mana where I’m going, so taking you will be useless anyway. Besides, you are needed here to protect them from any danger they might suffer,” Ning said.
“Oh, okay,” Sorlus said. “Don’t worry, master. I will protect them from any danger,” Sorlus said.
“Good,” Ning said. “If you do a good job of it, I will reward you with something good.”
“Woah, I will definitely do a good job, master!” Sorlus said.
Ning waved back again and walked up the house to enter his room. He made a small spatial boundary with his powers so no Constellation could ever do again what Stryxus had done with his last portal.
Then, using 1.5 Sextillion of his current energy, he created a portal in his room. A portal from Earth, directly to Kumia.
Nervousness filled Ning as the silver door opened in front of him. He could already see the mountains on the other side of the portal.
Now, he had 2 minutes to enter.
As he got ready, a thought came to him. A question that he hadn’t asked the system for many, many years.
The last time he had asked the system, it had been too soon to get an answer. But what about now?
Approximately 400 years had passed for Kumia in the time he had been in the other Universe, and even a year had passed for Earth.
Ning hoped there were some changes.
So, he asked the question, and the system answered.
Ning liked the answer. “Shouldn’t take me very long to get there with this much energy,” he thought.
In some sense, his nervousness had vanished after getting that answer, so with a confident smile on his face, Ning walked through the portal.
He stepped onto the mountain range and looked around. This time, he didn’t immediately leave and waited around for the door to close.
He couldn’t make the same mistake again.
After a little while, the door closed and he finally looked around to see his surrounding.
The mountain range was tall and vast. He could see thousands upon thousands of mountains from where he stood and they seemed to go past even the haze.
The greenery suggested that Ning was not in the center of the central continent or the far north and south where it was all snow. Other than that, he had absolutely no idea where his portal had formed.
After all, the only requirement he had placed on the system before forming the portal was that it was in Kumia, and away from any human life.
Divine sense emerged from him like a shockwave, reaching the farthest limits of Kumia. With a single thought, he had covered the whole world with his divine sense.
“Damn, I had forgotten just how massive this place was,” Ning thought. He was having trouble tracking the various things that he was seeing, so he only focused on the important ones.
“Oh, so that’s where I am,” Ning said when he realized the location. “So I arrived through the Southern Continent once again, huh?”
“At least it’s not the glacier again,” Ning thought.
His senses revealed a few different things to him at the same time. Some of which surprised him, but thinking back now, it shouldn’t have.
“So many beastmen,” he thought. That was something Jha’Akim had done in order to make everyone the same as him. He had made his subordinates go around exploding to release blood mists that would transform them.
Many had died in the process, but many also had successfully become beastmen.
Ning wished they weren’t treated too badly for something they didn’t do, and it seemed they weren’t. They were going around their normal life like everyone else.
Ning also sensed the current status of the Qi in Kumia. The Northern wormhole had collapsed in of itself and was no longer there. So, as a result, the density of Qi in Kumia was steadily increasing.
It would still take some time to be better, but at least the people should be able to reach the Spirit Transformation realm now. That was the most important realm for them anyway.
He looked to the north at where the Klavians were, but he did not see anyone he recognized. He looked to the other side of the north where the Seven Lights city was to search for Anya and her family, but he didn’t recognize anyone there either.
His sense then went to search for the beasts that would be at the center of the Continent, and while he sensed the Spatial pocket there, none of the 3 beasts were there.
Ning wasn’t worried, however. Since they weren’t at their home, then there was only a single reason.
They were all in a different places.
“The Origin!”
