Chapter 1010: Opening A Spatial Portal
Hu Dagao was the tenth heir of the Hu clan and thus had access to a lot of information that most people could only ever dream off.
He even knew about the various concepts that were related to the space as well as the existence of the different layers of the Void. This also included information of how Teleportation arrays and such worked.
Of course, this was all just theoretical information and wasn’t the same as being able to use it.
But just this awareness alone was something extremely rare in the Ming Dao world. It could be said that Hu Dagao was on the same level as Ji Shirong if one considered their knowledge base, with Shirong exceeding by a little due to his interactions with Lin Wu.
As such, Hu Dagao realized what Lin Wu was doing in front of him.
“This… how is this possible?” Hu Dagao muttered in astonishment. ‘He’s making a Spatial formation just like that? No precious materials, no stabilizing tools, no spirit stones either…’ the man felt his reality being flipped.
As far as the common understanding of cultivators went, any kind of formation or array that dealt with Space were very complex. They could even be considered as one of the most difficult formations to learn and even the best formation masters struggled with it.
Those that could use such formations, needed years of practice as well as hundreds of supportive materials to make them.
But here there was Lin Wu, making a Spatial formation as if he was making a simple illumination talisman.
Watching him work, Hu Dagao almost felt like making formations was an easy task. It didn’t seem like Lin Wu was struggling at all; the runes were simply popping out of his body and automatically arranging themselves into formations.
Hu Dagao knew that runes could be drawn in the air using one’s spirit sense and he wasn’t shocked by that part. What he was shocked was the fact that each of the runes was precise and could move automatically.
Such high level of skill wasn’t even seen in the best formation masters in the Ming Dao World.
At the very least, Hu Dagao knew why Lin Wu had been able to fool him as well as the arrays of the city.
‘With skills like these, the arrays of the city are dog shit!’ Hu Dagao thought to himself.
~SHUA~
Ten minutes passed as Hu Dagao continued to watch Lin Wu. It was now that the formation was fully constructed.
The space in front of him started to flicker, before a thin line appeared. This line was pitch black, and as thin as a hair. But then a few seconds later, it started to widen as a portal appeared in the space.
“It really is a spatial portal!?” Hu Dagao had never seen one like this before.
He did know of teleportation arrays and how they worked, but this was different from those. This was a Spatial Portal that would lead one inside the void. Portals like these were almost never used as there was no need for them.
In fact, for many this portal could actually be considered a great danger as falling into one would be quite dangerous. There weren’t many cases of people being able to return from the Void, without great luck or help.
And thus, most people never made Spatial portals like this.
Even making a stable spatial portal was a tall task. More often than not, spatial portals like these were accidentally made in the process of something else. And when that happened, they would be very unstable and could suck everything that was within its periphery.
The best example would be the Spatial Storage Ring that belonged to Shirong. Lin Wu had caused it to break unknowingly, and it had ended up tearing a hole in the void.
After all, most spatial storage tools were functionally portals to a fixed space. This fixed space was like a bubble created in the minor void.
And when it was broken, the portal that would form due to it could end up in the lesser void.
Having known all this, Hu Dagao was quite scared.
He took several steps back and was ready to run at any point. But much to his shock, the portal didn’t do anything.
“Huh… It’s stable?” Hu Dagao couldn’t believe his eyes.
“Of course it is.” Lin Wu scoffed before taking a look at it.
The portal was about two meters wide in size and was swirling gently at its borders. Lin Wu could sense the spatial disturbance that was arising from the portal as well as the Spatial energy that was somewhat leaking from it.
‘Let’s check what this is hiding now…’ Lin Wu extended his spirit senses inside the portal facing no restrain.
If it were any other expert, they would be very careful in using their spirit sense to probe a spatial portal like this. After all, if they made a mistake, their spirit sense would be severed and they themselves could end up becoming crippled.
But with Lin Wu’s reinforced spirit sense, this was nothing and he could freely let his senses roam inside the portal.
‘System, begin your scans as well…’ Lin Wu ordered internally.
~DING~
——
SCANNER: Activated!
TARGET SELECTED: Lesser Void Portal.
INITIALIZING: Please wait a few minutes…
——
The system’s own sense entered the portal and searched it for anything of significant. The main point of significance was none other than the traces left behind by the suspicious being. But even if Lin Wu found something unrelated, he would still be fine with it.
He also knew why it was so easy for him to open a portal like this here.
‘The space here has been made weak due to some reason… Seems like it might the work of someone or something…’ Lin Wu guessed after seeing the spatial fabric.
Lin Wu had to wait for about ten minutes while Hu Dagao simply walked farther from the portal. No matter how far he was, he still felt unsafe.
