At the intersection of light and darkness, Green and Milly appeared in forms of a higher life level. Naturally, they were no longer beings the natives of Demonstone's home planet could reach.
As though watching a light-screen film, the two watched the disguised alien life-form leave the room, then exchanged a smile.
Crackle, crackle!
When Green and Milly pierced through spacetime once more through the black-hole vortex of the Way of Annihilation, they arrived in an illusory world steeped in mystery.
"If it's an illusory world, let's seal our power to one thirty-thousandth and explore freely."
Green suggested.
At Green's current life level, even one thirty-thousandth of his power still placed him squarely at the level of a Level Three life-form. Milly had it somewhat worse, having only just barely entered the level of a Level One life-form.
Caw!
Milly's self-sealed ice-phoenix phantom flashed and vanished. Looking over the illusory world around them, she saw layers upon layers of green threads of light winding through the air like a birdcage that blotted out the sky and covered the earth, stretching beyond sight. Judging from the strength of its rules, this illusory world was likely astonishingly vast. Within the black-gray illusory space, beneath the canopy-like web of green light threads, chunks of honeycomb-like rock floated and drifted slowly. From time to time, they collided with rumbling crashes.
Some of these rocks were enormous, perhaps as large as an entire continent, while even the smaller ones were mountain-sized. Likewise, the holes in the rocks ranged greatly in size.
"Hah... even breathing is difficult. I have to focus all my energy on transforming elemental skills just to sustain my vital functions. It looks like I'm going to become a burden to you."
Milly was so weak she could barely catch her breath.
"Mm."
