"Someone's there!"
Qin Hao started in alarm.
He swiftly compressed and released his divine sense, probing toward the source of the sound. His figure flickered as he hid behind a towering boulder and peered in the same direction.
Once compressed, his divine sense ultimately reached only about twelve thousand meters... Under normal circumstances, this would have been impossible. With his divine sense compressed into a single line, Qin Hao could have surveyed almost the entire Star Sea Heaven and Earth.
The reason it reached only a little over twelve thousand meters in this space was entirely due to the killing intent here. Without compression, its range was merely five thousand meters.
Its original range of ten thousand meters had already fallen by half. Judging from the current situation, as the killing intent grew denser, the area his divine sense covered would continue to shrink.
As for what he could see...
There was a forest, its ancient trees towering into the clouds, packed densely together. Qin Hao could only make out a tall figure, with faint wisps of black qi coiling around him...
"An outer realm demon spirit!"
Qin Hao was startled. The black qi surrounding that tall figure was unmistakably demon spirit demonic qi. This discovery both shocked and delighted him. He had thought he was alone in this space, but apparently that was not the case.
There were actually outer realm demon spirits here!
And the presence of outer realm demon spirits meant there had to be Cultivators here as well.
Qin Hao and Luo Wei had been the first to fall into the Black Vortex. He did not know whether it had swallowed anyone else afterward. Although he had speculated earlier, without seeing it with his own eyes, it remained mere conjecture. Now, however, he could be certain...
