Chapter 2216 Different
?Unfortunately, what he wasn"t very good at was stopping himself from having these emotions at all, so he was in a constant state of trying to prove himself.
"Esteemed High Empyrean Elf." The Earl greeted politely. Since no one knew Dyon"s name and he seemed to have no intention of telling them, they could only call him this.
"I am known as Earl or The Earl, I am the Chancellor of Segment 232. I"m glad that you"ve chosen to come back to our humble bazaar. Though I wanted to make contact with you earlier, I was afraid that you would take it as an affront. I don"t want to come off as a person trying to make connections with you simply because you took a chance on my little bubble world."
The Earl smiled. His acting was so good that many even felt a swell of respect for him. Who wouldn"t want to establish friendly relations with a high elf? The fact that he held back for so long made those who didn"t know the true nature of the Earl look at him in a different light.
In the end, how could a normal man manage to build the largest bazaar in a star segment? No matter how weak a star segment is, there will still be trillions of people to contend with. The one that came out on top would without a double be a talent even amongst talents.
Dyon faintly nodded, but showed no intention of responding. It was as though he was telling the Earl to get on with it. Or, asking him why it was he hadn"t continued to leave him alone.
The Earl"s heart inwardly twitched with a hint of dark suggestion, but his expression remained amiable.
"The truth is that I had no choice but to come to Esteemed High Empyrean Elf on this day. As you know, void surges do not come from nowhere, they"re often causally linked with other events. It takes time to find these root causes, but after almost a decade, we"ve finally found the cause of this one.
"I won"t hold you in suspense and get right to the point. The Yin Soldier Immortal G.o.d"s Legacy World has broken through the void once more, and this time, it"s our star segment it will orbit in.
"Unfortunately, I do not have the qualifications to explore this Legacy World alone, and nor do I have any subordinates who are on this level. I hope to enter a partnership with sir High Elf. In return, I will provide you with all the funds and resources you need for 5 years. But, once the world opens, I hope that you will guide me to gain some benefits."
Dyon finally raised an eyebrow, the first change in his expression since he had touched down here. He didn"t care much about the Legacy World. What he found interesting was the fact that this Earl had actually dared to speak of it aloud in front of so many witnesses.
On the immortal plane, instances of Legacy Worlds were a bit different.
Dyon"s first run-in with a legacy world had been the Demon Sage"s. Back then, Force Academy had to go out of their way to look for its location and even sacrificed the lives of thousands of their students just to gather up enough power to open it.
In addition to this, Dyon remembered that the catacombs of the Belmont Royal Clan had many Legacy Worlds hidden within it. Much of the quick build up of strength of his Empire was due to exploring and plundering these worlds.
This was all to say that Dyon wasn"t unfamiliar with Legacy Worlds. That said, they functioned differently on the immortal plane.
The main and most important difference was that Legacy Worlds, especially those that came from Immortal G.o.ds, fundamentally couldn"t be cleared in a single try.
Immortal Legacy Worlds could almost be considered as independent planes of their own. Some of the most powerful ones even had special laws all to themselves.
As a result of this, immortal legacy worlds usually went through cycles. They had irregular orbits and would float between reality and the ethereal. Sometimes, when they came close enough to the real plane, they would break through and open for a period of time before shuttling away again.
Unfortunately, a by-product of this was void surges. Though it wasn"t the only reason one might occur, it was definitely one of them.
Every time an immortal legacy world appeared, one could enter for a period of time but would have to exit before it slipped back into the ethereal world or else they would be stuck there until the next time the world crossed into the real.
This might sound like a great thing. After all, as long as the world eventually came back, wouldn"t that mean you"d have more time to explore and gain benefits? Unfortunately, this was definitely a case where more was not better.
In that in-between realm, void beasts were rampant. And, this wasn"t just void beasts of normal levels, but even heaven defying Tier 9 void beasts had a good chance of appearing a few times within a hundred year cycle.
In addition, in that place, there was no qi beside void qi. Due to this, one would slowly wilt away, your meridians drying and your body losing the sustenance it needed to survive over time. Without a method of telling when the world might appear outside the void again, you might very well die before even getting the chance.
Beyond this, even if by some miracle you were strong enough to battle these void beasts alone and somehow brought enough qi crystals to survive however many millions of years it would take for you for the immortal legacy world to reappear, there was something even more impossible to contend with lying in wait.
Even aside from the fact living creatures would be completely torn apart when shifting between reality and ethereal, the laws of the immortal legacy world would become distorted in that in-between realm.
