~WHOOSH~
With Lin Wu's order, the avatar flew away while he switched to his main body.
His main body had been in 'seclusion' for everyone and only a handful knew that Lin Wu was in fact monitoring everything that was happening on the Long Continent.
'And depending on how things work out, I might be able to extend it to the Hu Continent as well…' Lin Wu reckoned.
The faster he extended his scope of observation, the easier it would be for him to further his influence.
"Plus, with these teleportation arrays scattered along the islands, the system might be able to make a proper relay. It should help with the Tomb's Teleportation array too." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Lin Wu adjusted his body on top of the island's teleportation array before activating it.
"Take me to the furthest island." Lin Wu ordered.
~DING~
——
TELEPORTATION ARRAY: Activated!
DESTINATION: Selected!
——
~SHUA~
Several runes appeared around Lin Wu's body and quickly turned into a teleportation circle. The circle descended from the top of his body, teleporting it away. Just ten seconds later, Lin Wu's large body had disappeared.
The isolated island once again regained its silence with the only sound being the waves crashing on its coast.
Lin Wu thought was having a new experience now.
"Oh? What's this?" he realized that he was in a dark space of some kind. "Wait a second, this place…" he then saw the faint flashes of light that were going past him.
It was at this point that he finally realized where he was.
~DING~
——
ANSWER: The host is in a teleportation channel and is currently being sent to the next location. The host will reach the selected location in 5… 4… 3… 2… 1…
——
By the time the system finished giving its answer, Lin Wu had already arrived at the next destination.
"Huh… So that was a teleportation channel. Which means the area past it… the flashing lights must have been the lesser void." This was the second time Lin Wu was seeing the lesser void directly.
The last time he had seen it was when Shirong's spatial storage ring had shattered due to Lin Wu's actions and had torn open a hole in the spatial fabric. It was a rather chaotic situation back then, but this was a lot more stable.
'Though I guess this is my first proper interaction with the void… I also got to experience the faint fluctuations during the travel…' Lin Wu recalled the sensations.
The teleportation was brief, but it certainly gave Lin Wu enough to think of.
~Sigh~
"Let's just continue onwards shall we?" Lin Wu said before rising into the sky.
~DING~
——
SCANNER: Activated
SCAN: Completed
DATA BANKS: Updated
MAP: Updated!
CHARTING ROUTE: New route plotted
——
The system automatically did its work and pointed out the path that Lin Wu needed to take.
"Hmm… the next island is rather far…" Lin Wu realized this after seeing the map.
Considering the travel distance, it was easily over five thousand kilometers away. Not to mention there would be a lot of dangers along the way. Even the route that the system had charted was temporary and might need to be changed depending on the obstacles.
"No wonder they had a hard time getting across. A ship would certainly have a hard time getting past this tract of the ocean. Only an Immortal ascension realm cultivator would be able to fly that far." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Even at his maximum speed, it would take at least three or four days. And this was if he could maintain that speed.
'It's best to go at a steady pace. Plus I'll also gather some aquatic beast's along the way, expand the data banks more.' Lin Wu decided to shoot two birds with one arrow.
~SPLASH~
This time Lin Wu didn't fly, but dived into the ocean instead.
"System, track all the beasts of significance." Lin Wu ordered.
~DING~
——
NOTIFICATION: Targets have been marked on the map.
——
Lin Wu glanced at the quite literally thousands of markets and smiled.
"Hoho, this will be a good harvest. I'll also be able to get a set of beast corpses for the avatar too…" Lin Wu's avatar needed as many unique beasts as possible to grow its Dao Embryo after all.
On this day, the aquatic beasts of the Great Ocean found a new predator roaming in their territory. It would come like a glowing green blur and disappear into the dark depths. No matter what beast came across it would end up dying within its maws.
Entire schools of fish beasts, large swarms of shrimp, and prawn beasts, all started to disappear within its mouth.
It didn't matter what the cultivation base of these beasts was either. Nascent soul realm, Dao Shell realm, and even Dao Treading realm aquatic beasts were killed and consumed.
Lin Wu's harvest was great and he obtained a lot from it. Not just in the form of spirit Qi and Vital essence either, but other resources like rare materials found only in the depths of the ocean.
He found several spirit herbs, spirit fruits as well as ores and crystals that were used for making spirit tools. Lin Wu gathered them all and didn't leave behind even one of them. But this also meant, that his time of travel had extended quite a bit.
It took Lin Wu nearly ten days before he reached the island he had set out to reach.
~RIPPLE~
Near the coast of a rather large island, the water rippled. The ripples were small at first and were drowned out by the waves, but soon they became so large that even the waves were broken.
~SPLASH~
Finally, a few seconds later, a massive crystalline body rose from it. Ocean water dripped from it while it glistened under the sunlight.
"So this is the island… it's rather big." Lin Wu narrowed his eyes as his spirit sense spread around. "And, seems like there used to be people living on it too."
Lin Wu could sense several old and dilapidated buildings on the island.
