Chapter 155: Immortal Elements - 155
As soon as the power within the sword was released, the space cracked and tore, turning into fragments and being utterly destroyed.
The space within a thousand lightyears was utterly broken, while the next ten thousand lightyears of space were jumbled up and cracked.
With this single strike, Zhou Fan had the ability to nearly decimate an entire galaxy.
After a moment, Zhou Fan stopped flying and started floating in the decimated space since he was completely out of Qi.
Luckily, he recovered fairly quickly. Unluckily, the space didn't. It remained shattered and fragmented. It didn't even look like it was healing.
Zhou Fan wasn't sure what effect the shattered space would cause if he left it there, so he decided to fix it. Using space Qi, the healing process was quite easy.
Due to the size of the shattered space, however, Zhou Fan took nearly a day to fix it all.
Afterwards, he looked at the black hole. He had intentionally left it out of the strike zone since he was unsure what the strand of cosmic dao would do if it was destroyed.
Now that it had nothing to devour, it stopped growing.
Zhou Fan soon ignored the black hole since it wasn't changing at all and left to other galaxies.
Unfortunately, the three galaxies he had visited were by far the closest of them. The next galaxy would take an entire day of travel to reach at minimum.
Despite that, Zhou Fan didn't mind. He set off towards the nearest galaxy at his top speed.
--------------------------------
A day later, Zhou Fan reached the boundary of another galaxy. It was pink and about the size of the red galaxy.
Besides a single planet with the potential for life, there was nothing interesting about it. After giving them what they needed to evolve and cultivate Zhou Fan left the galaxy.
-------------------------
After around a week of travel and two new galaxies, Zhou Fan arrived at the third. Of the three, there was only one planet with potential for life.
Now that he had reached the third galaxy, Zhou Fan planned on staying for a while. Instead of mindlessly wandering, he would enter seclusion for a bit.
He would spend that time comprehending the elements and concepts since he had broken through and could do that again.
Comprehending the immortal level elements and concepts had been similar to comprehending the cosmic dao, so Zhou Fan assumed he would get to 50% yet again.
After finding a random planet, Zhou Fan crossed his legs and started his comprehension.
-------------------------
After 60,000 years, he had comprehended around 20% of what he could comprehend.
His strength in using elements and the ways he could use them increased drastically. He was already starting to defy the basic knowledge of them.
--------------------------------
After 90,000 more years, Zhou Fan reached 30% comprehension in immortal level elements. His flames could now be cold and his ice could melt things.
------------------------
After 130,000 more years, Zhou Fan had reached 40% comprehension of immortal level elements. His lightning Qi could now heal people and his life Qi could now turn someone into ashes.
-------------------------------
After 170,000 more years, Zhou Fan reached 50% in his comprehension of the immortal level elements.
Although mortal level elements could only be used one way, immortal level elements had many usages.
His dark Qi could light up a room while his light Qi could make things dark.
Of course, he would probably never do that. Unless there was some sort of restriction of using light Qi, there would be no need to use dark Qi to light something up.
There would also be no need to use life Qi to harm someone or Lightning QI to heal them.
Overall, comprehension of immortal level elements was almost useless to someone with affinity to all elements.
If one had a flame affinity, using flames to freeze something may be useful, but they could also use Ice Qi if it was something at a lower level.
Not having an affinity didn't mean you could not use that element. It would just be weaker than your level.
Despite the new usages of elements being useless, the increase in their power wasn't. His flames now burnt at higher temperature, while his gravity Qi applied more pressure.
Now that he had finally comprehended all he could, Zhou Fan left the galaxy. This time, he wasn't flying towards another galaxy. Instead, he was going towards what seemed like a cloud in space.
It was made up of gasses. Zhou Fan decided to call it a nebula. Despite being even smaller than the current Zhou World, the nebula was huge, spanning 5 light years.
As he reached it and entered it, Zhou Fan felt a new type of environment. It felt like he was in a low air quality area with high humidity.
It was the equivalent of a rainforest in space to Zhou Fan. Sticky.
Despite its uncomfortable feeling, Zhou Fan explored it. He felt that the nebula was in the process of becoming something, but he didn't know what.
Above all, the nebula was beautiful. It was like a cosmic spider web made of stars and gasses.
Zhou Fan looked at it for a while before moving on. He started to fly towards the next galaxy at full speed. He reached his destination soon after.
The galaxy was the biggest he had seen so far. It was almost 5 times bigger than the red galaxy. It was a basic blue color that one would expect to see in space.
After looking around with his divine sense, Zhou Fan was surprised at the amount of planets with the potential for life. Every other galaxy he had been to had one at most. This time, however, there were 3 planets with the potential for life.
This time, Zhou Fan not only gave them what they needed to evolve and cultivate, but also put their planets together. That way, they would be able to work together or fight or do whatever they wanted to.
Despite it being interesting, Zhou Fan left soon after helping the planets out.
He had found a destination he wanted to head towards. Many Many lightyears ahead, what seemed like a giant nervous system filled up a huge space in the universe. It wasn't quite a nebula, but more like a cluster of galaxies.
Chapter 156: The Great Attractor and Runes - 156
The thing that Zhou Fan called a galaxy cluster was bright yellow. In the darkness of space, it seemed like a world light.
Zhou Fan divided it into two parts based on its looks. One was the main part, which seemed like a cylindrical capsule. It was solid yellow without a single bit of space in between.
The other part was lines that seemed like they were being sucked towards the main part.
It almost resembled a centipede. Although he couldn't accurately calculate from his distance, it seemed to contain millions, or hundreds of millions of galaxies.
What Zhou Fan could guess, however, was that something was in the center of it. Otherwise, there was no reason so many galaxies would be in one spot, or be being attracted towards that spot.
Zhou Fan considered a black hole, but the galaxies on the main part didn't seem like they were moving.
For now, Zhou Fan would call it the great attractor, despite not knowing what it was.
While moving in that direction, Zhou Fan didn't plan on ignoring the galaxies he saw along the way. As usual, when he saw a planet with potential life, he would evolve the lifeforms, connect the planet and sun to his mortal dao, and give them a way to cultivate.
In around a year of travel, Zhou Fan helped more than a thousand planets with potential for life. Despite all the traveling, there was not a single planet with life already on it, if you exclude the micro organisms. Zhou Fan was starting to feel like earth was the creator of the first life in the universe.
In that year of travel, Zhou Fan had barely gotten closer to the cluster of galaxies despite moving at speeds that far exceeded light.
Therefore, Zhou Fan decided to take a break from traveling and break through. That way, he could travel much faster.
Zhou Fan took the pagoda out of his spatial ring and let it float in the empty void. Thanks to its strength, even the space outside the galaxy was unable to hurt it.
Zhou Fan flew to the top floor and started to cultivate. He didn't plan on stopping until he reached the next level.
------------------------------
120,000 years later, Zhou Fan successfully broke into the 2nd level of the inner world realm.
He carefully observed his inner world in order to see what happened. As expected, the boundary of the inner world expanded, while its power increased and its Qi multiplied.
Since the inner world was a part of Zhou Fan like his organs, his power increased and his Qi multiplied, although it already did that anyway.
Not much else changed besides the inner world's expansion and his increase in strength. Luckily, his speed increased with his strength.
After putting the pagoda back into his spatial ring, Zhou Fan used his full power and Qi in order to move forward as fast as possible.
His speed had increased by almost 4 times and he soared through space much faster.
After another year, he had helped more than a thousand planets once again. The process hadn't changed and his mortal dao hadn't even reached a cap, surprisingly.
Despite his new speed, Zhou Fan had barely shortened the distance from the cluster of galaxies ahead. He had accepted that the trip would take a while no matter what he did, so Zhou Fan took another break. Instead of breaking through, which would probably take longer than reaching the galaxy cluster, Zhou Fan started experimenting with the usages of Qi once again.
He believed the last time he had done so was at the original Huang Long academy before he had even left earth. With his new strength and comprehension of the Dao and elements, he felt that he should be able to discover another use.
After nearly a hundred years of experimenting, Zhou Fan finally found it. When he infused a certain amount of Qi, along with an understanding of the cosmic dao into his finger and wrote symbols in the air, different things would happen as a reaction.
It was similar to formations and arrays, but could be done without any sort of foundation whatsoever. It also had much higher requirements and much higher power.
Even Zhou Fan struggled at first, but he soon got the hang of it. He decided to call them runes.
When used the correct way, for example, runes could produce stronger fire for less Qi. The substitute would be one's understanding of the dao. Of course, an understanding of the cosmic dao couldn't be consumed. It was more like a catalyst.
After a while, Zhou Fan was also able to use his mortal dao to make runes, although they were both weaker and not cost efficient.
Like formation and arrays, the runes would last until they decayed or were used. However, its longevity was longer. Therefore, he could draw an invisibility rune with a fireball rune and set it to attack the first person it senses.
It would send an attack as soon as someone came near it. It was a great trap.
Another use for runes that Zhou Fan came up with was a restrictive wall. Using a special combination of runes, a milky white wall would form that blocked any entering from someone weaker than the runes.
However, Zhou Fan was able to make an exception that allowed those who comprehended the runes on the wall to enter.
Therefore, the wall could be used to block out unworthy people while allowing worthy people in.
That was just one of the many uses Zhou Fan came up with for runes. The best part was that the more you comprehended the cosmic dao, the more powerful your runes were.
With Zhou Fan's current strength and understanding of runes, along with his comprehension of the cosmic dao, he could create an attack that could destroy nearly a half of a very small galaxy.
Although it was weaker than his full strength with his sword, especially now that he had broken through, that was only because he hadn't practiced with runes very long.
Runes were very hard to fully comprehend. Simply the precision required would take thousands of years to master.
