Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master
Chapter 838 The Secret Behind Portals
William was excited to know that one of the remaining two dangerous places had this portal. Yet this wasn't also great news. These two places were controlled by the forces of dark masters, which meant a huge and stressful time was waiting for him.
But he also knew about the right way to activate this portal. And frankly speaking, no one could activate this aside from humans.
That region was known as the Lost Black Hole region. It was an area that was ten times in size bigger than this one, and it was no less deadly than the swarm area.
This region was filled with tons of holes, covered up by balls of black clouds. There was no lightning there, only a scary amount of gravity. Anyone trying to walk by this region for ten kilometres would be dragged like an iron dust drawn to a strong magnet.
It was a very scary region, one that didn't have any outer or inner zones, but everything about it was scary like the outer shell of this lady monster.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe scariest thing was that no one ever got pulled and returned. Everyone in the world thought these people or monsters were killed, crushed by such irresistible intense gravity. Yet William now knew the secret behind this region.
"The terrifying gravity is just a side effect of the gathering of many interworld portals under the ground… Each hole leads to one portal, with a way to determine where one will go…"
The lady monster exposed everything about this region. Lots of interworld portals were buried underneath the ground and could only be accessed through the holes found on the ground. The gravity would pull anyone towards the heart of this zone, then it would vanish like it wasn't there.
According to the intel he just heard, there was some sort of isolated space in the heart of that region, one that wasn't any lesser than a pocket world in size and richness in resources, people, and monsters.
Anything dragged towards that space would be safe from any gravity or danger. But if they tried to go out, they'd either have to pass through one of the portals' black balls, enter the holes, reach towards one portal and manage to activate it.
Or else the corrosive nature of air in that place would tear down their bodies fast, killing even the mightiest monsters like that lady monster in less than a few days.
She got to learn about all that thanks to one risky trip she made a couple tens of thousands before. She got curious about the mysterious regions in the world once she hit the ceiling of this world power, decided to go and see if there was any valuable secret lying within any of these.
She was strong enough to not get scared easily from anything. And there she didn't just get in and out without dying, she also made further trips to unravel the truth about that area.
She saw the portals, knew how to get to them, and even how to activate them. According to her, one had to let a droplet of his blood, filled with spirit essence, fall over any portal to activate it.
Monsters were like masters and had such spirit essence. But her attempts failed as there were few other conditions. She saw humans falling into the holes, ending up accidentally activating the portals using their blood.
After testing and observing this for a long time, even to the extent of abducting humans and throwing them into these holes, she realised what was missing.
"The portals don't only need spirit essence, they also need spirits embedded within masters… Monsters don't have spirits within themselves, as they are considered as a spirit of their own accord…"
William got the trick behind activating these portals. Humans could only do it, as long as they had a spirit activated inside them. In addition to this, one had to be at silver grade, or else the portal wouldn't budge an inch.
William knew everything about these portals, very valuable data actually. He didn't even need to go there to check things out and decided to first go back and bring everyone here.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust before he planned to take the scroll he took from Sloth out and send him the good news, he noticed something. Lots of shadows were moving fast, even flying at low altitude, coming towards him pretty fast.
"Monsters…" he paused, spreading out his spirit sense to cover a few kilometres at last, "no, they are these masters…"
He spotted lots of fast moving, flashing like thunderbolts, masters heading towards him. He didn't know that, but these masters were deadly worried about him.
They waited outside, not knowing even if he'd come out. Their leaders didn't have the same attachment to William like them. And so, it was expected to receive orders to retreat, go back to the city and then leave back to their homes.
But these masters didn't comply. They knew no one ever managed to enter the inner zone and got out. Yet all of sudden, and after days of waiting, the entire region rumbled, and they were thrown away from there.
They saw something unbelievable, the entire swamp region changed, and got engulfed into a colossal layer of white and green fog. Nothing could be seen through this new fog, and they started to feel bad for William.
Those who clung to the faint hope of him returning safely back lost any hope at the end. And in the middle of such a dejected atmosphere, something flashed and came out a few minutes later, moving like a sent out arrow, heading from the heart of this region towards the far distance.
The moment they spotted him, they spread out their spirit sense to the limit, detecting who he was. They couldn't believe their eyes, as William came out, not just alive but totally safe and sound as well.
They had to wait for a few minutes to just absorb their shock, then started to run towards him with their fastest speed.
