Among the treasures in the original Coiling Dragon novel, the one most useful for cultivation was undoubtedly the "Miniature Plane Space" Beirut had created in the Yulan Material Plane when he was at the peak of the High God level. Of course, for an ordinary Saint-level who had no hope of becoming a god on his own, a Godhead was certainly the most valuable.
The Sovereigns of the Coiling Dragon World could use the abilities contained within Sovereign Sparks to create planes about the size of a Material Plane. A peak High God who had comprehended the Mysteries to a high level could also create a miniature plane space independently within a Material Plane.
By making use of a Material Plane's unique properties, this miniature plane space wouldn't be destroyed by the Spatial Turbulence outside. Yet its energy density was the same as that of the Spatial Turbulence. Although it still couldn't compare with the Higher Planes or Divine Planes, it was far denser than the energy in a Material Plane.
In fact, the Miniature Plane Space could have been materialized long ago, but Sean hadn't done so. Like the Plane Sealing Magic Array, once it was materialized, it could never be moved again; it would have to stay where it was.
The Zhongyuan Continent was fraught with danger, and there were especially many god-level experts. The Plane Sealing Magic Array was inherently discreet, affecting only the darkness elements within a radius of a few miles.
But the Miniature Plane Space connected to the Spatial Turbulence outside. Its properties would produce large quantities of Magic Crystals nearby, and its energy density was also extremely high, making it easy to discover. Only by placing it deep underground could Sean ensure its safety.
After all, Sean only needed the Plane Sealing Magic Array to break through to Saint-level. It would be of little use after that. The Miniature Plane Space, on the other hand, could not only help him break through to godhood, but also let him hide safely inside and await the natural godhood brought by his God-Eater Rat bloodline. The outside world wouldn't know when the Laws of the Heavens and Earth stirred.
Another benefit was that he could cultivate inside after becoming a god. Beirut hadn't created this thing out of boredom. This little space was useful even to High Gods.
Earlier, in the Dark Forest, he had stayed there for some time after reaching Saint-level. Aside from using his fights with Ram to deepen his understanding of the Mysteries and further fuse them, his main goal had been to use the abundant darkness-element energy to strengthen his body.
That way, he could go as far underground as possible now—the deeper, the safer. A god's divine sense could indeed penetrate underground to investigate, but they generally wouldn't bother. This was also why he had chosen the largest uninhabited desert on the Zhongyuan Continent.
After he sent the book in his mind a request to materialize it, a "door" emitting an eerie light suddenly appeared ten meters in front of him.
Without stopping to consider anything else, Sean covered himself in battle qi. The Darkness Element Profound Mystery formed a thin layer of armor around him. In the outside world, even an ordinary Saint-level expert wouldn't have been able to break through this defensive energy layer, which contained fused Mysteries.
"Squish, squish." As Sean stepped through the "light door," a blade-like force frantically sliced at his body. His energy armor kept repairing itself, but some weaker spots were still breached, and the cutting force struck his skin directly. His flesh was tough enough to avoid being cut through, but the pain still pierced to the bone.
The resistance inside the door was great, but it was only a membrane. He just had to force his way through.
Once Sean had entered, all the pressure vanished. Before him lay a "bubble" space about ten meters in diameter.
Inside, just as the original novel described, there was a simple table, chair, and bed. Beyond the "bubble" was the multicolored Spatial Turbulence. Spatial rifts appeared from time to time, their terrifying power making Sean afraid to send his spiritual force out to investigate.
This was energy that even a Paragon could only barely withstand. Only Sovereigns could fly through the Spatial Turbulence with ease. Even Linley, whose body was as tough as a Sovereign Artifact after Quadruple Fusion, could only barely walk through the depths of the Spatial Turbulence at a tortoise's pace. Anyone who fell in here was doomed.
The plane space Beirut had crafted could withstand the impact of the Spatial Turbulence outside, not because his Mysteries were especially powerful, but because this place was an "extension" of the Material Plane. He had succeeded by taking advantage of that, using the Material Plane's own properties.
Otherwise, if Beirut, before becoming a Sovereign, had been thrown into the Spatial Turbulence, he could only have drifted along with it. There was no way he could have created a plane space capable of withstanding it on his own.
"The energy density in here really is high. Even the darkness elements are much stronger than they were around the Plane Sealing Magic Array." Sean focused his mind and sensed the various elemental energies around him, feeling delighted.
He knew that a plane space connected to the Spatial Turbulence would inevitably have a very high energy density, but experiencing it firsthand still thrilled him. At this density, he could cultivate Laws and fuse Mysteries much, much faster.
On top of that, with his Divine Beast Bloodline, which would let him become a god in just a few decades, perhaps he could do it in only a few years here.
Of course, the most important thing was that this opportunity might let him fuse two Mysteries. If he succeeded, he could advance straight to Middle God. Combined with the Super Divine Beast nature of the God-Eater Rat, he would basically be invincible in the Zhongyuan Material Plane.
He wasn't planning to leave again anytime soon. Saint-level beings no longer needed to eat or drink, though sometimes they did so to satisfy their appetites. Sean had also stocked up on enough food and water before coming.
After tidying up the inside of the plane space, Sean sat in a corner near its edge and closed his eyes to cultivate. He could easily sense darkness, wind, and earth elements around him. He could also clearly feel the other four elements: light, water, fire, and thunder.
This was completely different from how things had been on the Zhongyuan Continent. Since he lacked talent for those four elements, he had spent a long time in the Material Plane just to sense even a little of them.
Of course, even if he could sense more here, it wouldn't help. Without the corresponding talent, there was no way to absorb them.
Although the energy density in the plane space was high, it still couldn't compare to that of the Higher Planes. In the Higher Planes, most gods—even Sovereigns—didn't have many Divine Clones. If you lacked the talent, there was simply no way to cultivate it.
Beyond the seven elemental energies, there were also an eerie, holy energy; an energy filled with the auras of life and death; and an energy brimming with destruction. Those should be the Four Edicts.
Suddenly, Sean felt that he might be able to connect with that destructive energy. This should be the Destruction Law.
