Chapter 1807 - 1807. Acceleration

The dimensional tunnel shattered as the experts shot forward. King Elbas had only reinforced the structure's edges, but that empowerment didn't make it able to endure the immense pressure radiated by the group.

The difference between the void and the area inside the dimensional tunnel became unclear as the experts let the massive acceleration generated by King Elbas' sling lead them forward. The group didn't have to do much in that situation. They only had to make sure not to fall into the blackness.

That also turned out to be easy. King Elbas had studied the entirety of the dimensional tunnel before creating the sling. The item already knew where to send the experts while limiting their chances to fall off the separate space.

The only variable in the process remained the hole in the sky. King Elbas couldn't understand how big that opening was from his previous position, so he had to limit the eventual landing area to a relatively large spot.

Some experts might land on the white sky if his calculations ended up being off. The event wouldn't be dangerous due to the impact or the distance from the hole since the group could handle those parts. The issue was on Heaven and Earth's potential reaction and the inevitable arrival of the empty creatures.

The two problems could lead to ugly consequences. The empty existences could push some experts far away from the hole with their control of the void. Heaven and Earth could even prepare something for them on the sky.

Moreover, the passage might close on its own if the destroyed lower world was the only weak plane connected to the hole. The expert would have a limited amount of time to reach the other side of the sky at that point, and any delay could force them to remain outside.

The sole idea of remaining stranded in the void without the experts that had made that mission possible made the cultivators, hybrids, and magical beasts inside the shattering dimensional tunnel focus even more on their task. Everyone tried to move closer to Noah and King Elbas, but the intense acceleration fought against their efforts.

Their d.e.s.i.r.e to take precautions against an eventual failure to hit the hole didn't make them forget that they were following the path set by the dimensional tunnel due to King Elbas' pushing force.

Empty creatures appeared in the corner of the group's vision, but they couldn't do anything in front of that speed. They had even reacted to the faint auras that spread past the broken pieces of the dimensional tunnel, so they could never prepare a proper attack capable of reaching them.

The incredible acceleration didn't cause any problem. Even the cultivators could easily endure it due to the lack of air necessary to create friction. The entire group could cross large areas of the void in a matter of instants, and the sky soon became the only thing in their vision.

The pushing force didn't diminish even as the group approached the white layer. The blinding light released by the sky made them unable to see if the area actually featured a hole, but everyone decided to have faith in King Elbas and stick to that direction.

Getting out of track now could make the experts lose their chances to find the hole. None of them dared to take risks in that situation, so the whiteness eventually enveloped their figures.

A small hole eventually appeared right below them. The passage was smaller than the experts had predicted. Some of the bigger magical beasts wouldn't be able to fit it, and those at the edges of the group turned out to be off course.

The passage was also closing, and the various experts couldn't help but curse. Calculations quickly happened in their minds, and everyone soon realized that only the speed generated with the sling could make them cross the hole on time.

It became evident that someone had to do something, but the experts in the safe areas didn't dare to put their return at risk to deploy abilities that could drag the others on the right path.

Noah's close friends also chose to ignore those who were off-track. They didn't have movement techniques that could bring them to the hole on time once the pushing force stopped.

King Elbas suddenly wore a determined expression. He appeared ready to sacrifice himself and remain outside of the sky to remain with the experts off-track, but Noah acted faster than him.

Faint trails of dark matter came out of his back and touched all the big magical beasts and the experts outside the safe zone. The higher energy created a connection with those existences and instantly teleported them inside his separate space, where Shafu accepted them into its body.

The dense dark matter forced the pushing force to a stop. Noah stopped accelerating and began to remain behind due to the difference in speed. Yet, his unstable substance, ambition, and Isaac's ability activated at the same time to give him a sudden burst of speed.

Noah ended up crossing his companions after activating his techniques. He managed not to waste the acceleration acc.u.mulated until then and build on that to become faster than he had ever been in his life.

The entire group entered the hole and descended through the closing walls of the sky until they reappeared inside the almost empty whiteness of the Immortal Lands.

Abilities activated at that point. Everyone deployed techniques to stop their bodies and disperse the acceleration acc.u.mulated until then. Noah even released the existences that he had saved previously, and they couldn't help but shout in joy at the sight of their home.

The group had done it. They had returned inside the sky after spending the last centuries exploring the void and stealing energy from Heaven and Earth's sources.

The event would normally end up in the historical records. Noah and King Elbas could write detailed guides on how to succeed in that difficult mission. They could also spend some time improving the process before announcing it as a revolutionary method for those who couldn't approach the stormy regions yet.

The void wasn't an area impossible to explore anymore with the proper preparations and techniques. It could be a source of energy that surpassed even most of the old regions. Also, organizations could use that knowledge to remove certain landing zones and hurt the future of their enemies.

However, those glorious ideas could only apply to a world with lands, organizations, and politics. They were pointless in front of the empty higher plane. The sky was illuminating an area almost devoid of energy, but Heaven and Earth didn't seem to mind that.

"Let's hurry to the landmass," Noah ordered. "I don't want to waste more of the fuel that we have spent years collecting."

Everyone seemed to agree to that idea, but a strange event suddenly unfolded in their vision.

Their consciousnesses didn't react to that event, but their eyes couldn't miss that that a black patch had appeared in the sky above them. The hole had disappeared, but darkness spread through the white layer until it condensed into a humanoid figure that stood upside-down on the dangerous material.

Author's notes: My arm has started to hurt, and I feel kinda off. The next chapter is almost over, but I'm writing slowly. I have a LOA(a thingy that allows you to take a one-day break without losing win-win), but I don't know how rightful it is to use it when I would still have to update Chaos' Heir(since I don't have the LOA there). I don't know. I'll finish the last chapter and let you know my plans.

If you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know < report chapter > so we can fix it as soon as possible.
