Chapter 931 410: Free Deep Diving (3)

The vast high-dimensional space began to rapidly contract, and he felt as if he were in a game with a God view, suddenly standing at a higher-dimensional point, "overlooking" the surrounding area!

"So this is the lamp..."

If the distance Chu Xiu's divine sense could cover before was 1, then his extreme probing distance in one direction was about 15, while the distance covered by Emperor Xi's Exploration Lamp was over tens of thousands in radius!

Now, Chu Xiu completely understood why a lamp was needed. Even if his Divine Soul strength had reached or even surpassed the average level of a Perfect Demigod, the range covered by his Divine Thought was a hundredfold short compared to even the worst lamp, simply incomparable!

And now, with the expanded vision increased by tens of thousands of times, Chu Xiu immediately sensed a lot of things he had never noticed before.

The high-dimensional space was not uniform everywhere; it also contained some peculiar structures.

For instance, about 1500 divine sense limit ranges to the left of Chu Xiu, there was a strange vortex, and at over 6700 divine sense limit ranges to the upper right, there was a floating "land," among other things.

These strange things were like singularities on a map, spurring Chu Xiu's interest in exploration.

But unfortunately, with the expanded vision, he realized just how slow his previous movement method was...

"The distance of Emperor Xi's Exploration Lamp is 5, so my speed per hour is about 0.037..."

"Now the depth alone might be over fifty thousand, not to mention the horizontal distance..."

At this rate, when will he get back?

Even if his movement speed can increase tenfold with his growing proficiency in high-dimensional space, the gap in magnitude is still too great.

"No, definitely not right. The Heroic Spirits can already explore in high-dimensional space, and usually when I enter the Trials, it doesn't take much time."

"There must be other movement methods I'm unaware of..."

Chu Xiu frowned, pondering the mystery within.

What he didn't know was that although Awakened ones had researched various methods to accelerate, dive, and even battle, the improvement was not particularly large.

Just like how a swimmer might swim much faster than an ordinary person, no amount of training could make them faster than a speedboat.

The space Awakened ones could actually explore was very limited.

The usual method is to first use the teleport Ability to teleport to a Trial World where an Anchor Point had been set, and then explore the surroundings of that world, with the exploration radius rarely exceeding a hundred.

Of course, even just this hundred is already a massive area.

The demigod who died trying to rescue the Heroic Spirit used the method of purchasing an Anchor Point in a world near the Heroic Spirit's coordinates, then teleporting and doing Free Deep Diving.

However, even though he bought what was already the closest world, the distance was still over a thousand, which is exactly why the demigod died during the long journey, and it's why Vengeance vehemently opposed Chu Xiu rescuing Qin Xiang.

But for the dataless Chu Xiu to regain teleportation ability, he must first understand its underlying principles and then find a way to achieve it without the help of the Abyss.

Unaware of this, Chu Xiu could only ponder randomly on the spot, which did let him discover some small tricks to move faster, but as for how to cross such vast spaces, he naturally gained nothing.

However, as Chu Xiu frowned in deep thought, suddenly as if sensing something, his expression changed dramatically!

Emperor Xi's Exploration Lamp allowed his vision to extend over a large area, but a person's attention is limited.

So earlier, Chu Xiu only discovered some large special structures, which doesn't mean he could grasp everything within the radius of the [Lamp], which is also why even with the [Lamp], the mortality rate for Free Deep Diving remains so high.

And at this moment, he suddenly discovered that an unknown object was approaching him at an incomprehensible speed!

Compared to the floating continent and the giant vortex, that object was insignificant, so Chu Xiu hadn't noticed it until it rushed into the range of his divine sense!

The speed of that object was too fast. Even in high-dimensional space, where Chu Xiu's divine sense could extend over a greater distance, it was nothing in the face of that object's speed!

In Chu Xiu's shocked gaze, a massive shadow suddenly emerged in front of him. If high-dimensional space was like swirling chaotic mist, then the shadow was like a drop of thick ink, instantly drenching the entire space in extreme darkness!

An intense feeling of danger surged in Chu Xiu's heart, as if just a touch of that thick ink would devour his life, consciousness, and body entirely in an instant!

Words once spoken by Vengeance flashed through his mind lightning-fast—

"The Abyss may seem as empty as the Cosmos, but it is actually filled with danger everywhere; Abyssal turbulence, Spiritual Energy Torrent, star-devouring creatures, and so on. Even the Eight Celestial Kings wouldn't dare claim they can survive within it!"

"And the deeper you go, the higher the probability of encountering these terrifying presences!"
