1058 Flowing Dark Domain

In the pitch-black Dark Domain of Chaos, Lin Feng could not control the direction. It was not that his senses were obscured. In reality, his senses were not obscured. He could still sense everything around him normally.

But what was all around him? Darkness. Endless darkness. There was no light, not even a trace of light. His mental power was not obstructed at all, and was still unimpeded. However, wherever his mental power passed, there was only darkness and emptiness.

It was not that Lin Feng could not tell the direction, but that there were no directions at all. His surroundings were all pitch-black. Without anything to refer to, how could he tell the direction?

“My senses of the Chaotic Rules are becoming weaker and weaker. If this continues, it’s very likely that I’ll get lost and find myself unable return to the Chaos.”

Lin Feng suddenly stopped and frowned.

This was because according to the vice president’s detection imprint, he was approaching it along the way. There was no concept of time here, no space, and no way to warp space. However, Lin Feng’s speed was naturally not slow, so he quickly approached the detection imprint.

However, as Lin Feng approached the detection imprint, he realized a problem. The closer he was to the detection imprint, the weaker his sense of the Chaotic Rules became.

In this vast Dark Domain of Chaos, if one could not sense the Chaotic Rules, not only would they not be able to use Rule tempering divine abilities, they also would not be able to utilize the power of the Chaotic Rules.

More importantly, if one could not rely on the Chaotic Rules, they would not be able to return to the Chaos. This was the biggest problem. Back then, the vice president was only able to return to the Chaos because he was extremely lucky and returned by accident. Otherwise, even a top-notch Perfected Deity probably would not be able to return to the Chaos.

Lin Feng had encountered this difficult problem. If he continued to venture deeper into the Dark Domain of Chaos, he might not be able to return to the Chaos.

“Looks like I can only come so far. No matter how much Chaotic spirit flames there are, if I can’t return to the Chaos, the gains won’t make up for the losses.”

Lin Feng shook his head. He had considered things beforehand. Although it was a little risky for him to come to the Dark Domain of Chaos, it was not that he had no assurances at all. He still had a certain degree of assurance.

If he could not even sense the Chaos, it would be a real risk.

After he had only been in the Chaos for a thousand years, Lin Feng had already cultivated to his current level. He still had the Chaotic Origin Stone. His path of ascension was very smooth, and practically unimpeded.

There was no need for him to take such a risk at all.

“Wait. Even the vice president, a mere Perfected Lord, could leave a detection imprint. I can still sense it even now. Why can’t I leave a detection imprint here? This way, as long as I can sense the imprint I made, I can return here and sense the Chaos from there. I won’t have to worry about getting lost in the Dark Domain of Chaos.”

Inspiration flashed through Lin Feng’s mind. This was indeed a method.

“Hold on. If I can think of this method, how could the other Perfected Lords and even Perfected Deities never have thought of this method?”

Lin Feng considered things thoroughly. He did not think that his method was very brilliant. If even the vice president knew how to leave an imprint, the others should know even better.

However, why was the Dark Domain of Chaos still so terrifying? It was even classified as a forbidden place where even top-notch Perfected Deities got lost and never returned? There were probably many unknown secrets within.

Lin Feng recalled the information about the Dark Domain of Chaos again and again, but there was just too little. Even those cultivators who were lucky enough to return from the Dark Domain of Chaos refused to talk about it, or only revealed very little information. Almost all of them had to be extremely lucky to be able to return to the Chaos.

“Universe Daemons, I summon you.”

Lin Feng summoned 3,000 Universe Daemons.

Swoosh.

“Greetings, Father Deity!”

“All of you, spread out and explore the surroundings. Remember, you must stay in touch with each other. If your senses of the others weaken, return at once.”

“Yes, Father Deity.”

The 3,000 Universe Daemons quickly spread out. However, Lin Feng then realized that even if the 3,000 Universe Daemons stood still, their senses would constantly change. Lin Feng’s expression could not help but change.

“Could it be that everything in the Dark Domain of Chaos would move on its own?”

Lin Feng summoned the 3,000 Universe Daemons back and tested his hypothesis carefully. As he had guessed, even if they stood still, their senses were constantly changing. Their positions were actually constantly changing.

It turned out that the Dark Domain of Chaos was constantly changing. However, its surroundings were empty and pitch-black, so even Lin Feng had not sensed it previously.

If Lin Feng had really assumed that he would have nothing to worry about after leaving behind a detection imprint, he would probably never be able to return from the Dark Domain.

As for why the vice president’s detection imprint could be sensed even in the Chaos, it probably only meant that the sensory mark left behind by the vice president was actually not that far from the Chaos.

“The Dark Domain of Chaos is constantly moving, so the vice president’s sensing mark is also constantly moving. However, the speed of movement is not too fast. Perhaps one day, the vice president’s sensing mark will move to the closest distance to the Chaos. At that time, even if I head there, I will still be able to sense the Chaos.”

An idea flashed through Lin Feng’s mind.

Indeed, it was not worth it for Lin Feng to take the risk to venture into the Dark Domain of Chaos now. This Dark Domain of Chaos was just too bizarre. Safety was more important.

Hence, Lin Feng retreated immediately. He left the Dark Domain of Chaos and returned to the Chaos.

Swoosh.

Back in the Chaos, Lin Feng heaved a long sigh of relief. He felt much safer in the Chaos. In the Dark Domain of Chaos, one could not even see their fingers in front of them. Even though there did not seem to be much pressure or danger, in the long run, that kind of loneliness and oppression for a long time was enough to make one go mad.

No matter how strong one’s willpower was, it was not enough.

Lin Feng sat cross-legged in the Chaotic void near the Dark Domain of Chaos, and began to carefully sense the vice president’s detection imprint.

One day, two days, three days…

As one month, two months, then three months went by…

Lin Feng did not know how long he had been waiting. Perhaps a few months, perhaps a year. In his senses, the detection imprint in the Dark Domain of Chaos was like a small boat in the waves of the ocean, drifting away and approaching at intermittent times.

This also confirmed Lin Feng’s hypothesis. The Dark Domain of Chaos was indeed constantly “flowing” and changing. If one was not careful and entered the Dark Domain of Chaos, they might be completely lost.

Even though Lin Feng could sense that the detection imprint was actually very close to the Chaos, it had yet to reach the safe distance in Lin Feng’s view. Hence, Lin Feng did not move at all.

“Almost, almost. Just a bit closer, a bit closer…” Lin Feng muttered softly, staring at the incomparably pitch-black Dark Domain of Chaos.
