Chapter 668 - 667: Dimensional Entrance, Attempt to Open

Compared to pure spatial rules, the use of authority is indeed more beneficial.

At least it’s true for Li Jing in the current stage.

After all, authority doesn’t require him to understand it himself.

The quality of it is affected by the influence of God Patterns and divine positions, and personal understanding has a minuscule impact.

Rules are just the opposite.

Personal understanding and control play a decisive role, other external factors are not essential, including personal power.

Of course.

The last point is somewhat paradoxical.

The elevation of personal realm will undoubtedly accompany a deeper cognition of everything in the world.

With cognition, you can better understand.

Rules and authority are ways to utilize rules in different forms.

The advantage of the former is that as long as your understanding is sufficient, the upper limit of the effect of the rules is incredibly high.

The advantage of the latter is its simplicity and purity.

With humongous grade, and the divine position to support, the effect can be striking.

Apart from these.

In less than two breaths, Li Jing brought Jiang Yini and Abigail to the North coast of the Eastern Continent.

Standing on top of a cliff next to the open ocean, Li Jing turned his head.

"Where do we go from here?"

"Wait a second."

Abigail responded, taking out an ancient compass from her bosom, holding it in front of her chest, and closed her eyes as if sensing something.

Soon, the compass needle in her hand began swaying from left to right with high frequency and started to decelerate gradually.

Li Jing and Jiang Yini exchanged a silent glance upon seeing this.

Obviously.

The compass in Abigail’s hand has the effect of finding spatial entrances.

Such a device.

Would not be lacking in the hands of the Supreme God Clan over the years proclaiming their faith everywhere in warfare.

But the one in Abigail’s hand is probably one of the more high-end ones.

While Li Jing and Jiang Yini’s gazes converged, the compass needle in Abigail’s hand was steadily moving less and less from side to side, eventually steadying towards the Southeast.

The compass needle was fixed, and Abigail opened her eyes and looked over.

Li Jing understood. Once again, he exercised the authority of space, taking the duo more than a hundred kilometers in the Southeastern direction.

The compass needle did not shift due to this change in position, so Li Jing promptly carried the two of them off to the side again.

Again, more than a hundred kilometers.

This time.

The compass needle changed.

Its pointing, deviated slightly to the East.

Seeing this, Li Jing decisively moved to the East as indicated by the compass.

Shifted four consecutive times.

The compass needle changed again, deviating slightly to the West.

It’s obvious.

This fourth shift was a bit too far.

Without thinking further, Li Jing chose to move fifty kilometers each time, advancing according to the angle of the compass needle.

In a short while.

The three of them reached a vast plain.

Upon arrival.

The compass needle started vibrating irregularly from left to right.

Seeing this, Abigail put it away and said,

"The entrance to the spatial plane is nearby. Because it is not in an open state, it is relatively unstable and may be moving within a small range, continuously changing, so the exact location can’t be locked."

With that, she looked over,

"As the Supreme God, you have control over spatial authority. Can you percept any spatial anomalies at the moment?"

Li Jing shook his head.

He is now very sensitive to spatial anomalies.

On this point.

The perception brought about by authority is inferior to his control of spatial rules.

After all, authority is relatively simple and violent.

The control of rules is much more subtle.

In such deep perception, the former seems to fall short of the latter which is entirely within reason.

However, since we are sure it’s nearby, Li Jing truly took out his skills.

With the critical juncture, Abigail apparently couldn’t do anything. She couldn’t accurately determine the location of the entrance.

Letting out a light breath, Li Jing sits aloft, closing his eyes and immersing his mind.

Upon seeing someone exhibiting the posture of a cultivator from the Eastern Orthodox Immortal Path entering a meditative state, Abigail, who was struggling to determine the exact location of the entrance, was taken aback, surprise flashing in her eyes.

However, she didn’t make a sound, nor did she make any movements.

From her perspective,

The strong and incredibly mysterious Supreme God in front of her is inscrutable!

But, honestly, Abigail doesn’t care about his origins.

All she needs to know is,

Li Jing is mightier than her.

Much mightier than any Ancestor God.

And he can provide the power she craves.

That’s all that matters...

Abigail, unlike most members of the Supreme God Clan who are characterized by blond hair and green eyes, looks a bit like a mixed-race person with Eastern and Western features, her black eyes observing Jiang Yini who is consciously or unconsciously observing her. She smiles slightly and nods in acknowledgment.

Seeing this, Jiang Yini narrows her eyes slightly and nods back in response.

This woman,

was the former director of the Jianghai City Management Bureau, she had a keen and discerning gaze.

The composure she displays suggests that Abigail is pure in her ambition.

But her ambition is just one aspect of her.

She’s also highly tolerant.

She’s tolerant in all aspects...

As long as she can achieve her goals, she wouldn’t care about certain details or processes, all she wants is the final outcome.

Such people,

are terrifying.

Usually, these people have no moral compass, and they don’t want any concerns to bind them.

Even facing a deluge, they won’t stop until they achieve their goals.

Li Jing sure seems to have acquired an incredible goddess...

But the problem probably won’t escalate too much.

Abigail’s kind is indeed terrifying, but also straightforward.

She would never do anything that harms her own interests.

Even under desperation,

She won’t make any decision or take any action that would damage herself.

As long as Li Jing is strong enough,

Abigail, who will exercise Supreme God Power on his behalf, would be a loyal dog through and through, firmly controlling the entire Supreme God Domain for him.

Meanwhile,

Li Jing’s mind delves into deep meditation, immersing himself entirely in an attempt to feel any possible discrepancies in the space rules existing nearby.

Surprisingly,

Upon feeling deeply,

He immediately finds something.

Approximately 100,000 li away, there was once a devastating collapse in the Earth Realm - a catastrophe that must have taken at least a decade before the space naturally healed to a damage-free state.

Without a doubt,

This was related to the entrance to the Plane Space.

A passage is formed when the Secret Realm Space collides with the Big World.

What would happen if two Plane Space’s collided?

Li Jing knew not.

But he was certain,

A simple passage for interconnection doesn’t occur when two different Plane Space’s collide.

Setting aside this point,

The entrance to the Plane Space must have appeared in the Heavenly Saint Land long ago.

This occurrence dates back to a time even more ancient than the founding of the Da Xia Dynasty.

How long ago exactly,

Li Jing couldn’t ascertain.

A space that collapsed and recovered would have a slight difference from the surrounding space.

But this difference is like an incurable scar on our bodies, which gradually fades with the passage of time.

However, having noticed this,

A guess naturally arises in Li Jing’s mind.

Back when the Qingyuan Fairy Palace thrived, the forces of Eastern Orthodox Immortal Path cultivation blossomed everywhere on the Eastern Continent.

In the end,

The entire Eastern System fell beneath the conquest of the War Worship God Clan.

It is probable,

The War Worship God Clan’s eastward expedition in the past may have been for this Plane Space entrance.

However, after they took over the Eastern Continent, they ultimately failed to make any discoveries. The religious beliefs of the cultivation forces in the Eastern Continent were hard to take root even though they were entirely eliminated. Finally, due to some reasons, they were left with no choice but to withdraw.

Then.

Unluckily for them, they encountered the Supreme God Clan and were completely defeated in the god war, becoming nothing more than history.

The discovered entrance to the dimensional space was no longer known to anyone until it was recently discovered by the Supreme God Clan.

Quietly contemplating, Li Jing tried to confirm the location of the entrance by carefully sensing the surrounding space inch by inch.

A hundred-thousand-mile Earth Realm.

Neither big nor small.

A thorough sensing soon ended.

Li Jing didn’t discover anything, but he didn’t give up.

The second round.

The third round.

The fourth round.

Finally.

On his fifth attempt, he keenly sensed a barely noticeable space fissure thirty thousand miles away from him.

This fissure.

It’s incredibly small.

It’s as if it didn’t exist at all, the law that would naturally guarantee the integrity of space had even overlooked this fissure, without a trace of any effects happening or about to happen.

Is this the place?

Li Jing opened his eyes.

Jiang Yini and Abigail, who had been guarding Li Jing’s side, were all startled at this sight.

Waiting.

It’s always the most tormenting.

From the moment Li Jing began meditating.

Nearly two hours had already passed.

Waiting quietly like this, speaking frankly, was quite torturous.

"Did you find it?"

Jiang Yini asked softly.

"Hmm."

Li Jing nodded, putting his mind to rest.

Hearing the affirmative response, Jiang Yini’s eyebrows slightly raised.

Meanwhile, Abigail bowed slightly with her hand on her shoulder, saluting.

"Praise the Supreme."

Li Jing glanced at her.

"Don’t keep repeating that, there are no outsiders here."

Abigail paused, nodding to indicate that she would be mindful, but a glimmer of interest shone in her eyes.

She didn’t see herself as an outsider.

However, that’s not how it works.

Plus, she understood very well.

To truly win Li Jing’s approval, she must perform to his satisfaction in the future, not based on what she stated not long ago.

However, a casual remark from someone like "there are no outsiders here" explicitly told her.

She.

In Li Jing’s eyes, she is one of us.

The literal meaning is just as much.

At a deeper level, Li Jing is saying.

I trust you, that’s why I’m using you.

"I am about to try to open the entrance to the spatial plane. We’re not sure what will happen."

Li Jing ordered and said.

"For safety reasons, both of you should retreat to a distance of a hundred thousand miles, do not approach it no matter what happens."

Abigail nodded, but instead of retreating directly, she went around Li Jing to Jiang Yini’s side.

Jiang Yini saw this, looked at her sidelong, and felt a bit awkward.

Abigail’s movements made it clear she intended to protect her.

This person...

She really couldn’t be faulted.

She easily saw that her relationship with Li Jing was not close and even found ways to show her loyalty.

It should be noted.

Abigail can’t use much of her power in the Heavenly Saint Land, but Jiang Yini doesn’t have that limitation due to her relationship with Li Jing.

When she needs Abigail’s help.

Abigail may have to risk provoking the Sanctuary Heavenly Way’s wrath and use all her power to guarantee her safety.

Jiang Yini doesn’t think Abigail is just putting on a show.

As mentioned earlier.

This woman solely and purely pursues results.

When necessary.

She won’t hesitate.

Unless, in possibly occurring mishaps, she can’t even protect herself.

As for angering the Heavenly Saint’s Heavenly Dao, she should understand that Li Jing won’t let her die. At most, she will sustain some injuries before he steps in.

In comparison to what Li Jing would give her, minor injuries would be an entirely acceptable outcome.

Given that Abigail had already sensed her connection with Li Jing, Jiang Yini did not pretend to keep the appropriate distance. She pulled him, tiptoed in mid-air, and rewarded him with a sweet kiss.

"Be careful," she said.

The unexpected kiss momentarily stunned Li Jing.

Their relationship had been established for several days, but there had been no further progress between the two of them.

The most they had done was holding hands.

The kiss had come... too suddenly.

Before Li Jing had the chance to savor it, Jiang Yini turned and left.

Abigail, who had pretended to be blind the entire time, nodded at Li Jing, signaling her departure.

Li Jing stood in mid-air, watching as the two women left, one after the other. After confirming that they were at a safe distance, he withdrew his gaze, his figure shifting to the position where he had detected the small fissure.

From a distance, he didn’t sense anything too powerful.

But as he got closer, Li Jing couldn’t help but frown slightly.

It proved he was right to have Jiang Yini and Abigail stay away.

At this moment, close up, he could clearly sense the terrifying energy concealed behind the small fissure.

This energy...

How could he describe it?

Perhaps even the pure energy that would be released if he detonated his Little Universe might not match up.

Damn...

speaking truthfully.

This was a little unsettling.

The problem was that if Li Jing ’s stance upon opening the fissure was incorrect, he could quite possibly stimulate the energy on the other side, causing a complete explosion.

In that case, it wouldn’t be much less powerful than when its appearance in the Heavenly Saint Land had caused a space of over a hundred thousand miles to collapse completely...

Fortunately, at least Li Jing was confident that he could preserve himself.

If worst comes to worst.

He could enter the Little Universe.

Seeing something amiss, he certainly had the capability to carry Yini and Abigail with him into the space transformed by his Authority.

Taking a deep breath, Li Jing raised his hand carefully and pointed.

As his fingertip approached the small fissure, goosebumps immediately broke out on his skin.

The task at hand was actually quite simple.

To try and enlarge the small fissure as much as possible with his Authority over space, then thrust his fingertip through to the world beyond the fissure, touching the spatial rules on the other side, leading to a violent collision between the two intersecting spaces and creating a pathway.

In the process.

He would definitely explode.

He was definitely able to run.

But if one thing went wrong.

The energy produced by the collision might be sufficient to send a majority of the Heavenly Saints into the sky...

Thrilling!

The existence of the small fissure was much more fragile than Li Jing had initially thought.

When he touched the fissure with his fingertip, a small piece of space directly broke off...

But precisely because of this small tear, the spatial rules, which initially had no reaction to the small fissure, began to work, trying to repair it.

Without giving it much thought.

Li Jing focused, imbued a portion of his spatial Authority on his fingertip, and lightly applied pressure.

"Click."

Accompanied by a faint cracking sound, his fingertip successfully enlarged the small fissure further, penetrating to the other side.

At the same time.

Li Jing could feel the icy cold temperature on the other side.

It wasn’t that the temperature on the other side was extremely low, but that the environment on the other side of the fissure was special.

Was it outer space?

Bright lights shone in Li Jing’s eyes as he decisively manipulated his spatial Authority.

"Click."

Another faint cracking sound was heard, followed by the space in front of him cracking like glass, and swiftly a fissure like a spider’s web rushed wildly outward.
