Chapter 769 - 746: Return to the Star Sea (3/3)
After continuously shuttling through space for over four months, the star ship finally stopped its spatial jumps.
The Red Dragon Empress observed the drift of meteoric stones in the starry sky to deduce — after such a long time, the original continent must have drifted far away, and they needed to estimate its possible location based on the drifting speed of the falling stones.
The star ship slowed down and began searching in the dark cosmos.
"My lord, that continent is easy to recognize, as it emits a blood light every day that shoots up tens of thousands of miles!" One of the crew members said. He was one of those who had discovered the continent aboard the star ship, and Zhou Heng had specifically brought him along.
Zhou Heng nodded, with such a distinctive reaction, it was indeed easy to recognize.
One day, two days, three days... eleven days later, they finally caught up with the continent.
"Look, my lord!" Zhou was sitting cross-legged on the deck, meditating on the mysteries of the Five Elements Runes, suddenly awakened by several excited crew members. He stood up and looked in the direction they were pointing, seeing a huge continent floating in the cosmos thousands of miles ahead.
This continent was surrounded by breaches, likely resulting from collisions with other continents during its long journey through the starry sky, displaying a weathered aura.
Zhou Heng gazed across the expanse; the continent was truly vast, not at all smaller than any Immortal City, floating through space like a silent behemoth that could crush any existence in its path.
In Ancient Times, the Immortal Realm and Mortal Realm were alike, with whole Immortal Stars. And the larger the Immortal Star, the richer the Spiritual Energy it contained, known as a large star or giant star.
This piece of continent must have been a fragment severed from a large star, with its longest sides at least millions of miles apart, and this was just a shattered piece of land; how massive then was a true Immortal Star?
