Chapter 625 Endless Void
Zhang Qian was very regretful at this moment. He had made such a big mistake in his panic and forgot that using his ability to travel through the void in front of the Golden Immortal was tantamount to seeking death.
The Golden Immortals are always in harmony with the void. The void holds no secrets for the Golden Immortals, who can see through it at a glance. They can even clearly see Zhang Qian's figure shuttling through the depths of the void.
The golden immortal slapped down with his palm, immediately shattering the void around Zhang Qian, and Zhang Qian began to fall out involuntarily.
At this moment, Zhang Qian was faced with a dilemma. Either he would be shaken out of the void and then be besieged by three golden immortals, or he would pray for that one in ten thousand chance and drill directly into the large broken cracks around him to seek a chance of survival.
However, Zhang Qian did not have time to think carefully. In an instant, he made a choice and fell out of the void. Facing the three golden immortals, he had no way to survive. Only these broken cracks gave him a glimmer of hope.
There was no foolproof solution at the moment. Zhang Qian gritted his teeth and slammed into a large crack in front of him.
"Well……!"
As soon as he entered the big crack, Zhang Qian let out a muffled roar.
However, the cracks were filled with countless fragments of the void, some of which were barely visible, while others were the size of a palm. Countless fragments cut Zhang Qian into bleeding in an instant.
He hurriedly manifested the Heavenly Demon Pagoda and the Xuanhuang Pagoda, and even the Map of Mountains and Rivers and the State and the Qiankun Cauldron appeared. All kinds of self-defense measures covered his body, thus isolating himself from the sharp fragments of the void.
Looking up, Zhang Qian's face darkened. It was an endless, pitch-black void.
There is no up or down, left or right, and no concept of time. There is only dead silence, complete dead silence.
The void crack that Zhang Qian had drilled into had already closed and disappeared, and could no longer be found.
There was nothing in the billions of miles of dark void, only him floating up and down in the void.
In this world where there is nothing, Zhang Qian only felt countless distracting thoughts rising in his mind. The distracting thoughts were like settled dust, rising up at this moment. Coupled with the mental injury he suffered after the Linglong Pagoda of Mysterious Heaven and Earth and the Kunlun Mirror magical power were broken, Zhang Qian's mind was in chaos.
However, although he could not tell up from down, north from south, and had no concept of time, he finally escaped the pursuit of the three golden immortals.
Even the powerful Golden Immortals dare not enter the endless void, because only the immortals in the Daluo realm can sense the existence of the Long River of Time and will not be afraid of the endless void. The Daluo immortals can sense the Long River of Time in the endless void, use the Long River of Time as a coordinate to escape from the endless void, but the cultivators below the Daluo immortals cannot do so. Even if a Taiyi Golden Immortal falls into the endless void, he cannot escape unless there is another opportunity. Otherwise, he will be trapped in the endless void for his whole life and die of old age here. His end is extremely miserable!
It was unknown how long it had been, but after Zhang Qian found several precious pills he had obtained from the Yin-Yang Sect's small world and swallowed them, the pain in his head finally subsided, and the Xuanhuang Pagoda and Kunlun Mirror also recovered.
It was only then that Zhang Qian began to carefully consider his situation.
He looked around for a while and found helplessly that there was no reference point in this endless void. It was dark and empty everywhere, and there was no existence at all.
This place can be said to be infinite, or infinitely small, because in the endless void, there is no concept of size at all. This is a place where even concepts are very vague, beyond human imagination.
Gently closing his eyes, Zhang Qian tried to connect to the Ocean of Rules, but after a while, he helplessly discovered that it was impossible to sense the Ocean of Rules here. If he could not sense the Ocean of Rules, then there would be no reference point, and he would not be able to find any way out. This was the reason why Taiyi Jinxian was afraid of the Endless Void.
"Don't worry! There has to be a way to get out of here!"
After trying several times, Zhang Qian was unable to sense the ocean of rules and became a little anxious. However, he was not a mortal after all, so he calmed down his anxiety in an instant, and began to look for a way out.
No one knows how the endless void was formed. We only know that the endless void tightly wraps around the outside of the world. Like the world barrier, it exists to protect the world. Not to mention the world barrier, the endless void alone makes it impossible for cultivators who have not become great immortals to walk out of the world, or prevents cultivators from outside from coming in.
It can be said that the endless void is also a protective layer of the world, but this protective layer is completely different from the world's barrier.
The world barrier is clearly visible, something that can be seen and touched. It is an extremely solid membrane that protects everything in the world and prevents the world from falling apart.
However, the endless void is a strange place that either exists or does not exist, which is very similar to the quantum state of Zhang Qian's previous life. This endless void is collapsing and superimposing all the time, and it is extremely chaotic. What surprised Zhang Qian was that he tried to take a step forward, and was shocked to find that he had walked out thousands of miles in an instant with one step, but when he took another step, his body involuntarily moved a long distance to the left.
He took the third step and moved backwards again. There were no rules here at all, or it could be said that the rules were full of extremely chaotic. You wanted to move forward, but once you took a step, you didn't even know where you would be the next moment.
This is also one of the reasons why the endless void is so frightening. You cannot control your own position. Sometimes you only move a little distance, but the next moment you may appear billions of miles away.
Moreover, the scene here is exactly the same in all directions, it is all dark, and it is impossible to tell where you are.
Just like now, Zhang Qian only took three steps and got lost, not knowing where he was.
The reason why people can identify directions and their own positions is because they can remember previous scenes and the scenery around where they were before. However, there is nothing else in the endless void but darkness, and it is the same darkness everywhere. This causes people to be unable to remember where they were before.
All places are exactly the same anyway, so there is no way to tell the change in position.
Even though Zhang Qian knew that he might have moved a long distance, when he looked around, he had a strange feeling that he might still be staying in the same place without moving.
As soon as this contradictory thought appeared, Zhang Qian felt very uncomfortable. It was a contradiction that went against common sense.
Time passed by little by little. No, Zhang Qian could not notice the passage of time at all at this moment. He only felt that he had been in the endless void for a very long time, but it also seemed that only a short time had passed. Without any reference, he had no idea how much time he had experienced. This was the most uncomfortable thing.
Fortunately, the exquisite pagoda of Xuanhuang of heaven and earth sprinkled down the mysterious yellow energy, and the power of luck calmed the restlessness in Zhang Qian's heart. He suppressed all his thoughts, suddenly gritted his teeth, and suddenly started running wildly in the endless void.
There was no difference in direction here, and he himself didn't know which direction he was moving. He only felt that as soon as he took a step, his body began to flash back and forth. Sometimes he was billions of miles away, sometimes he appeared on the left, and sometimes he appeared behind. There was no pattern at all.
