Chapter 90 The Shadow Horizon of the Prime Material Plane

Cheng Yi held Wuming in his hand, examining the dim shadows that flowed across the scabbard.

At this moment, a faint chill still emanated from the shadows.

Cheng Yi nodded in satisfaction.

Currently, the effect of authoritarian torture is essentially equivalent to imbuing every attack with a freezing touch spell.

This ability is extremely effective against priests and tanky enemies with super healing abilities.

If Cheng Yi were to encounter an enemy who took his first sword strike and then restored his health bar to full using a huge amount of health regeneration, he would really feel like vomiting blood.

After initially resolving the attack issue, Cheng Yigang prepared to continue running dungeons to acquire more image quality.

However, at that moment, a faint tremor rose from the bottom of his heart.

The throbbing in his heart wasn't intense, but it was extremely clear. It was as if something was gently calling to him from afar.

Cheng Yi was silent for a moment, feeling a sense of familiarity amidst this excitement.

It's like that shadow.

During that period of slumber and transformation, Cheng Yi came into contact with the assimilated shadows.

Judging from Cheng Yi's final transformation, that shadow was undoubtedly the shadow realm of his prime material plane.

After thinking for a long time, Cheng Yi finally decided to go and take a look.

He also had many doubts in his heart.

From a historical and mythological perspective, the past of the Prime Material Plane may have contained extraordinary beings.

However, there are no verifiable supernatural beings at the societal level, which seems to suggest that this plane is nothing more than a dead magic plane.

Those gods, demons, and monsters that could overturn heaven and earth are nothing but the fantasies and delusions of the ancients.

However, when Cheng Yi underwent his transformation in the Shadow Realm, he could clearly sense that there were traces left by other beings in the Shadow Realm.

Beneath the shadows, strange creatures roam, and dilapidated buildings stand—

This undoubtedly strongly confirms the first viewpoint and refutes the second.

Even without this current surge of excitement, Cheng Yi had originally planned to find time to travel to the Shadow Realm.

After making up his mind, Cheng Yi locked the doors and windows of the old house, stood in the deep shadows inside, and looked at the "Visit the Shadow Realm" talent branch ability on the panel.

Cheng Yi's consciousness gradually sank, following his senses to connect with that vague imprint that existed in his mind.

The shadows spread, engulfing every corner of the room. In the space between reality and illusion, a dark doorway opened.

Cheng Yi vanished from the spot in a flash.

The old house was now completely silent.

The world was dark, and the surroundings were all shadows.

Cheng Yi's feet landed on nothingness.

There is no solid tactile sensation, only a subtle support that lies between existence and disappearance.

He looked down and saw his own figure appearing and disappearing in the shadows, like a flattened ink blot, barely maintaining the outline of a human.

There was no light around, but it wasn't completely dark either.

Instead, there is a deeper gray, one that seems to devour the eye.

The silhouettes created by the interplay of gray and black constitute everything in this world.

However, the darkness did not affect Cheng Yi much.

Under Cheng Yi's observation, the place he was in at this moment seemed to be a reflection of the barren mountain where the Cheng family's old house was located in the real world.

In the Shadow Realm, this is also a mountain.

Cheng Yi climbed the shadowy mountain and gazed into the distance.

In this world of shadows, his true nature and status are unquestionably revealed.

Cheng Yi's vision seemed limitless, exploring the very edges of this world.

He could even see the Three Mountains and Five Peaks, towering majestically in this world of shadow.

Cheng Yi understood; it seemed that the Shadow Realm corresponded one-to-one with the Prime Material Plane in terms of terrain.

However, this correspondence is merely a matter of terrain.

The skyscrapers and commercial buildings of the modern city are completely invisible in this shadowy realm.

However, this also raises a question.

During the talent forging ceremony at that time, I should have assimilated a part of the shadow world, which should have been reflected in the shadow realm of this prime material plane.

He observed carefully and finally discovered the clue.

Rock City.

In the area corresponding to Iwaki, the shapes formed by the shadows are very dim, as if they have just been born.

Dark matter continued to emerge from other places to fill that area.

Cheng Yi scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

Could it be that I've assimilated the corresponding shadow realm there?

However, since it's being repaired, there shouldn't be any problems.

He decided that once he found out the source of the tremors in the Shadow Realm, he would go to the area he had assimilated to investigate the details.

But right now, the most important thing is that slight flutter of excitement.

That flutter became increasingly active after Cheng Yi entered the Shadow Realm.

It trembled continuously, guiding Cheng Yi to go in a certain direction.

Cheng Yi didn't sense any malice in the guidance. Looking in the corresponding direction, he saw a large area of ​​dilapidated building ruins on the distant horizon.

And the endpoint of that sensing was precisely the center of the ruins.

Without hesitation, Cheng Yi moved like a streak of ink, silently gliding across the shadowy mountain ridge.

In this shadowy realm, he was not an outsider rejected by his environment.

His very existence is changing the surrounding environment.

The surging gray mist would make way for him, and the silent shadows would gather as his footsteps landed.

Cheng Yi could sense that the longer he stayed in the Shadow Realm, the more the shadows around him seemed to be assimilated by him.

In fact, considering the normal size of the shadow realm, the shadow realm of the prime material plane is many times larger than him. If anyone were to be assimilated, it would be Cheng Yi.

But all of this is based on one premise: whether the shadow realm of the prime material plane has its own consciousness.

If they possessed consciousness, they wouldn't have been exploited by Cheng Yi, this newly born shadow dimension.

Within the Shadow Realm, Cheng Yi's speed was also greatly enhanced.

The speed of movement was so fast that it didn't seem to rely on the body at all, but rather on the leap of consciousness.

It's just unknown how time is in the outside world. If time is synchronized, Cheng Yi might be able to use the Shadow Dimension to achieve fast travel between dimensions in the future.

The mountains and peaks rushed past him, their majestic silhouettes blurring into gray afterimages.

He traversed one rugged shadow after another, from the northern wilderness to the hills of the Central Plains. Everywhere he passed, he could feel a slight tremor emanating from the shadowy realm beneath his feet.

The palpitations grew stronger.

The dilapidated building ruins gradually magnified in his field of vision.

It was a massive, collapsed palace complex.
