It was just a seemingly insignificant beam of light, but Grimm felt as if he was lifting a boulder weighing ten thousand kilograms.
Perhaps this was insignificant to great beings like the Stigmata Sorcerers and World Lords, but for Grimm who had lost his sorcery, even possessing it was a huge burden, let alone borrowing the power of the Eternal Dominator.
After leaving Mount Serpentine and coming to the surface, Grimm did not choose the so-called direction. He just ran as fast as he could in a direction far away from Mount Serpentine.
At this time, Grimm was like a child who had stolen an adult's pocket money. He looked frightened, as if he would be killed in the next moment.
However, for an adult who had lost his pocket money, it might take a long time for him to realize his loss. Perhaps he would overlook it, or it was even more likely that he would never realize this insignificant thing in his entire life.
This was because the difference in their horizons was too great.
Passing one Phagocytic Shell after another, Grimm flew as low as he could.
In the past, it was the pupae who took the initiative to lead Grimm in the direction of Mount Serpentine, as if they were going to a wonderful land of hope that stood in all kinds of strange and strange places. But now, for Grimm, it was escaping from the source of fear and nightmares.
Of course, Mount Serpentine did not undergo any unusual changes, and Grimm did not suffer any special attacks.
Everything was as usual. For this interlayer space between reality and illusion, another day of the Eye of Destruction's descent had passed.
The infinite Phagocytic Shells in the sky were once again pushed open by two thick light beams. Vaguely, when Grimm looked back, he seemed to see the outline of two huge crab pincers!
This …
Grimm seemed to have thought of something, his eyes filled with disbelief.
'Could it be that I'm the enhanced version of the creature that was once confused by the Thousand-eyed Carcinus's eyes, and the Thousand-eyed Carcinus can't control the Chaotic Slaughter?
Could it be that the true identity of Mount Serpentine is the infinitely enhanced version of Thousand-eyed Carcinus?
Its goal was to steal and collect the Awakening Ray of the Lord of the Sea Serpent's Pearls again and again to carry out some unknown purpose.
…
The Awakening Ray of the Lord of the Sea Serpent's pearls once again shone on the interlayer space between reality and illusion.
The endless Phagocytic Shells in the sky slowly opened, and thousands of sea serpent's pearls chased and played with each other.
With the help of the Awakening Ray, Grimm could see that the light pillar on his chest was faintly connected to the distant Mount Serpentine. He could also see the traces of whirlpool doors of different sizes on the ground. Some flashed and disappeared, some did not appear, and some continued to spin for a long time.
If Grimm was still living in the deception of Mount Serpentine, Grimm would not have been able to see this wonderful scene at all. He would have long hidden in the Phagocytic Shell and entered the egocentric Spectral World.
The reason the faint red beam of light on Grimm's chest had become so dim was partly because Grimm had been weakening for a long time, and partly because the further away from Mount Serpentine, the weaker the blinding effect on one's perception.
"Yes, that's great. There's a Whirlpool Gate over there."
Grimm discovered a Whirlpool Gate with a diameter of more than ten meters in the distance. This was a relatively large Whirlpool Gate, and it was constantly rotating with the eye of the whirlpool as the center.
When Grimm came to this Whirlpool Gate and was about to jump down, he was stunned.
Because the aura coming from this Whirlpool Gate was a little strange!
The aura of this Whirlpool Gate had an indescribable sense of oppression and panic. It was like … the Resentment Bead that Eldest Senior Sister Secluded Spring had given to him. It had an indescribable strange charm.
The unfamiliar rules of the world meant that Grimm had to explore the dangers alone. After hesitating for a while, Grimm actually gave up on this Whirlpool Gate and flew toward another Whirlpool Gate that he sensed in the distance.
It was different from what most people thought.
Although Grimm and Little Myna had the gift of Spacetime Link, if they wanted to cross worlds and perform ultra-long distance teleportation, Little Myna could easily reach Grimm's side using the Spectral Space of the Dimensional Gap as a medium. On the other hand, if Grimm wanted to reach Little Myna's side, he would need to go through many preliminary steps because he did not have the Spectral World of the Dimensional Gap that was connected to the endless world as a medium.
The most important step was to find a World Node.
A World Node was a key part of a world. It was where the world's natural mineral wealth or special things were gathered. There were often large groups of creatures gathered there, or there were World Guardians watching over them.
Generally speaking, when a Reconnaissance Sorcerer roamed the endless void and discovered a new world, he would need to secretly locate the coordinates of many World Nodes in the target world to provide accurate space-time coordinates for the Void Fortress to descend.
As for Grimm, he did not need to travel to many World Nodes to carry out large-scale arrangements like the Reconnaissance Sorcerers. He only needed to borrow the characteristics of the world's weak points and set up simple magic formations near the World Node.
Another Whirlpool Gate.
This Whirlpool Gate was more than a hundred meters in diameter. It was filled with a violent aura, and it was very likely that it was connected to a large world.
Grimm thought for a while and decided to continue looking for the next Whirlpool Gate.
For some reason, Grimm felt that this Whirlpool Gate seemed to be extremely resistant to the outside world. Perhaps it was a resistance from this powerful world?
If a creature below the level of a World Lord were to enter rashly, it was very likely that this Whirlpool Gate would crush them into pieces during the "smuggling" process.
And a World Lord would rashly enter a large world with an Eternal Dominator?
This was simply an unimaginable disaster.
Naturally, Grimm continued looking for the third Whirlpool Gate. After a while, Grimm finally found something.
This was a Whirlpool Gate with a diameter of only two meters.
Although the aura of laws coming from within the Whirlpool Gate was different from any world that Grimm had been to before, it was still considered a world with normal laws. There should not be anything too strange or threatening to low-level life forms.
Grimm did not hesitate anymore. He forcefully supported his weakened body and leaped into the Whirlpool Gate while in his second level Wild Instinct Transformation.
There was a feeling of spatial distortion and compression.
This was the compression of the void after the Void Shadow was weakened. "Crack, crack!" The sound of bone armor cracking could be heard continuously. Even in the second level Wild Instinct Transformation, Grimm still felt an unbearable pressure pressing against him from all directions.
"This is a bit like gambling with my life …"
Although in theory, the semi-illusory world of Mount Serpentine would not be connected to some worlds that were too far away, but the concept of distance that was equivalent to the Eternal Dominator was not something a low-level life form like Grimm could imagine.
If it was a distant world like the Sorcerer World's demon-hunting expedition, without the protection of the silkworm cocoon, it would be extremely dangerous for a low-level Sorcerer to rely on his physical body to teleport.
Fortunately, Grimm seemed to be in luck.
The balanced laws of the Endless World and the rich elemental aura rushed towards him. It was extremely hot, and there was sand everywhere.
However, Grimm's situation was not optimistic. His consciousness was a little dazed. His previous injuries and the exhaustion from forcefully opening the second level of Wild Instinct Transformation made Grimm unable to move at all. He could only lie on the desert and gasp for breath, letting the shockingly hot sun in the sky recklessly shine on him.
The first thing Grimm did was to use his soul to warn Little Eight not to come over!
Otherwise, without Little Eight's space-time coordinates as a basis for teleportation, Lin Ruo did not know how long it would take for him to return to the Sorcerer World. Low-level creatures venturing into a foreign world that had not been transmitted by the Sorcerer's Will was undoubtedly an extremely dangerous act.
The second thing Grimm did was to use the last of his magic to keep the Awakening Ray that was causing the desert and space to distort into the Dimensional Gap, and then he fainted.
After a long time.
Grimm finally recovered some of his strength, and even began to gradually wake up. At the same time, he was lucky that he was not attacked.
It was extremely dangerous to be unconscious in a foreign world.
He did not know if the main law of this world was the desert, or if Grimm was just in a specific area, and what he saw was only a local law of this world.
Struggling, Grimm tried to sit up in the desert, and supported himself with the Sabbatic Goat Staff.
The instinct of a Dark Sorcerer was to survive.
Since they were Sorcerer-Apprentices, they had been selected and trained in cruel ways. The survival instinct of a Dark Sorcerer was deeply rooted in their bones. They used their own strength and wisdom to survive in all kinds of extreme environments, and to preserve their Sorcerer's Will.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Grimm's legs gave way.
It was not that Grimm's physical strength had not recovered, but the desert softened under his feet, and suddenly, a huge mouth stretched out.
Grimm cried out in surprise, and was sucked in like jelly.
There was a wet and soft feeling, but there was no crushing of teeth. Grimm was sucked into the body of this unknown monster, drenched in cold sweat.
