Chapter 1123: Nine Pillars

The dark gold runes continued to float around Ryu. Sometimes they would fuse into forms that were exponentially more complex, but they would also quickly separate afterward, dancing in dark gold motes of light. 

Surges of qi seemed to form whenever these runes fused. It was clear that they had quite some influence on the atmospheric qi, almost like they could have the presence of Immortal Rings. 

Ryu's steps came to a pause, his eyes narrowing. 

This region was eerily quiet. It was difficult to spread out his Spiritual Sense very far in this region because of the star paths' fluctuations, and his eyes were still semi-blind so he couldn't lock onto targets further than what his senses could reach, but even so, his ears tended to be quite reliable. For whatever reason, though, this seemed to be a dead zone.
