Chapter 3526: CrystalEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After everyone separately bound an island through their tokens, the God King spoke again, "Let’s go. I can tell you’re not very interested in the various cultivation zones and trial towers. Besides cultivation, the Martial Apex Tournament has also prepared a grand gift for the participants. I’ll take you there. I think you’ll like it."

"Oh? A grand gift?" Zane’s eyes lit up. "God King, that’s not very decent of you, hiding it like this. Hurry up and lead the way. Let’s collect the gift first."

The God King gave a bitter smile and said, "By the way, once we leave the Realm Venerable’s protected domain, in theory any area outside could be dangerous. We might encounter attacks from other participants. Everyone, be careful."

As he spoke, the God King once again injected mental strength into the token in his palm.

Whoosh!

A faint purple streak of light emerged from the token and shot into the distant galaxy.

"Let’s go."

The God King took the lead, following the guidance of the purple light as he rapidly sped forward.

Fang Heng shrugged.

He actually hoped they would encounter some danger along the way, so he could quickly raise the ranking on his token and save himself the trouble of going around to cultivate in the various cultivation areas later.

After all, he had already mastered the God’s Eye and comprehended domain power. All disciplines could easily advance to the God level. The only thing he lacked was energy.

Those issues could not be solved by cultivation fields alone.

As for the dimensional world, what truly interested him was still the Realm Venerable.

From the God King’s tone, he held the Realm Venerable in extremely high regard.

Fang Heng wondered what the Realm Venerable’s true strength was like and whether there was a way to help him break through the Twelve Sages tier more quickly.

...

The three of them advanced rapidly through the galaxy along the guidance of the streaking light.

After nearly an hour, Fang Heng narrowed his eyes slightly and looked ahead.

In the direction indicated by the streak of light, he could vaguely see a gigantic rift floating in the space of the galaxy, several hundred meters in size, appearing abruptly within the starry expanse.

At the edges of the rift, tangible energy formed wisps of smoke-like dust that continuously scattered outward like starlight.

"This is dimensional energy?"

Fang Heng stared at the massive rift, a hint of solemnity appearing in his eyes.

"That’s right," the God King nodded. "I once asked the Realm Venerable about this. In most people’s understanding, the world was originally a single whole. After undergoing a massive fluctuation and explosion at some point, it shattered into fragments, forming multiple world boundaries."

"The Realm Venerable believes this explanation is inaccurate."

"In reality, the world is divided into the Inner World and the Outer World."

"The Inner World is the source of everything, and also the source of that explosion. Most of the time, the Inner World remains in a stable state, but at times it becomes chaotic. Whenever chaos occurs, the Inner World releases high-intensity energy fluctuations. These fluctuations have an enormous impact on the Outer World, such as the birth or destruction of new worlds."

The God King paused, then continued, "I assume you’ve already guessed it. What the Realm Venerable calls the ’Inner World’ is precisely the dimensional world."

"The rift you see before you is a dimensional rift of the Inner World."

The God King pointed from afar at the enormous rift and said, "Approximately every three hundred years, the dimensional world experiences periodic fluctuations, during which dimensional rifts of varying sizes appear one after another, releasing energy. This energy is known as dimensional energy. After being highly condensed, dimensional energy forms tiny dimensional crystals."

"These crystals are extremely useful for cultivation."

"The period when the rifts are most active corresponds to the time when the Martial Apex Tournament opens every three hundred years. The Dimensional Emperor invites powerful individuals from various worlds to participate in the tournament, gifting them the rare dimensional crystals of the dimensional world."

"Of course, how much one receives depends entirely on individual ability."

Dimensional crystals? All given away?

Zane had also heard of dimensional cores and knew how precious dimensional crystals were. Staring at the spatial rift in the distance, he swallowed cautiously and said, "Fang Heng, I’m starting to believe this Dimensional Emperor is really something. He’s actually willing to hand out such precious dimensional crystals as gifts."

Fang Heng was also secretly shaken, marveling at the Dimensional Emperor’s generosity, while a faint excitement rose within him.

Dimensional crystals!

These things were extremely valuable. Previously, the only way to obtain them had been through game rewards.

He had not expected them to be handed out in large quantities as gifts in the dimensional world.

If that was the case...

Then he would not hold back.

"The rules set by the Realm Venerable state that within this trial area, once you obtain crystals, you may either take them out for personal use or consume them within the trial grounds."

The God King said, "This period is the peak activity phase of dimensional energy in the dimensional world. Dimensional rifts can appear at any time. The tokens in our hands can detect dimensional rifts that have already formed or are about to form within our assigned trial area. We can actively absorb the energy escaping from dimensional rifts or directly take the condensed dimensional energy crystals. Of course, be careful. There are quite a few monsters in the dimensional world, and they are all extremely covetous of dimensional energy and dimensional crystals."

As he spoke, ripples suddenly appeared in the dimensional space not far ahead of them.

A massive fish-like, elongated life form, resembling a deep-sea ribbonfish, emerged from the spatial ripples and swiftly darted toward the distant dimensional rift.

The God King frowned and said in a low voice, "That’s a dimensional catfish, a type of dimensional monster. They also understand how rare dimensional energy is. Creatures of the dimensional world are extremely hungry for power, and they will compete with us to absorb dimensional energy. They’re troublesome."

Whoosh!

As the God King was speaking, a shadow suddenly swept past him.

Fang Heng’s expression was cold as he instantly accelerated, charging straight toward the dimensional catfish.

The God King did not immediately give chase and called out loudly, "Fang Heng, mutated catfish don’t have particularly strong attack power, but their evasion and self-recovery abilities are extremely strong. They’re difficult to deal with. Don’t waste too much energy on them."

Zane curled his lips at the side.

He thought to himself that the God King still did not understand Fang Heng well enough, and that reminder was unnecessary.

Trying to snatch something Fang Heng had his eye on?

That was just courting death.

Fang Heng’s figure turned into a shadow as he rapidly closed in on the catfish. The Death Domain instantly spread beneath his feet, and a dark death scythe rapidly condensed in his palm.

The death scythe carved a long, dark red blade arc through the galaxy.

"Whoosh!"

The dark blade arc rapidly expanded in the galaxy, blasting straight toward the dimensional catfish from the front.

The catfish sensed the threat coming from behind in advance. Its originally dark brown body quickly faded, slipping into space and vanishing to evade the attack.

Fang Heng frowned and surged forward once again.

The spatial strength of the dimensional world was extremely stable, far more solid than that of the Outer World. It was not easy to break space here, which meant it was difficult to tear open space directly. Methods such as secondary space projection were easier to employ instead.

As the thought passed through his mind, the catfish emerged once more from faint spatial ripples not far away and quickly crawled toward the dimensional rift ahead.

"Hmph!"
