Chapter 491: True Nothingness
Tianyi stared dully with his palm aimed in front. Without stopping, batches after batches of Stellar Silences would launch from it. Although they shot forward, they didn’t always stay in a straight line. Only a small percentage did. The rest curved and swerved, covering almost ninety percent of Tianyi’s field of vision.
Not that he noticed.
Years of repeating the same action caused Tianyi to put everything on autopilot. This was his strongest conduit, yes, but most of his attention was elsewhere. The fact that he had many avatars was still unknown to the public. It was in his best interest to keep it that way.
Since Tianyi couldn’t show up elsewhere in another of his conduits, he simply appeared in his Nine Heavens Universe. Anyway, it wasn’t like anyone could detect him in his inner universe if he so wished.
Inside the Nine Heavens Universe, Tianyi had sectioned off a distant solar system and threw the Void Whale in there. There was no life in the solar system, but the Void Whale could survive through the energy of the sun. Thanks to this, he could survive in the void, unlike most other demons. Because of this, although the Void Whale panicked at first, it didn’t worry too much. He could survive, but the demons inside of him couldn’t.
The Void Whale couldn’t let the demons remain inside of it forever. So after several years inside its belly and making sure there was no danger, it found the planet with the highest qi density and let them out. The spiritual qi density only equaled the weakest low-rank realm, but the demon lords and demon kings couldn’t object because the other planets within the solar system only had a fraction, equaling unranked realms.
Although the conversion rate from spiritual qi to demon qi took a long time, they didn’t have to worry about dying because of the lack of qi. However, that didn’t mean they were willing to stay put. Once they secured their safety, many of them tried to discover how and where they were teleported.
Many of the demons explored the void, but had to return because they couldn’t find any suitable planets with spiritual qi. If they continued, they would become stranded without enough qi to return. Then they would die, becoming a cold corpse in the void. Even the Void Whale was not an exception. Although it could travel farther, once it went too far, the sun’s ray could not reach it.
The longer the demons stayed, the more worried yet calm they became. It was as if they teleported to a new world free of the war, or even other life. Still, the demons knew in their hearts that it was an illusion. If they did nothing, they could only become fish on the chopping block when the humans finally decided to deal with them.
