Void Evolution System
chapter-1348

The Heavenly World.

It was a name used by those in the lower universe to describe it, but it wasn't an incorrect term at all.

The Heavenly World truly was a world. It was a Universe World, something that had never existed before in the lower universe.

Its size was hundreds of quintillions of kilometers, and the number of existences living within it was even greater.

How could one describe the entire Heavenly World in a few words? No matter how hard one tried, it was impossible.

When Damien stepped out of the Void, it didn't feel like he'd traveled through space and time. Rather, it really felt like he only took a single step, and everything changed around him.

The blackness of the Void, still and absolute, was replaced by a myriad of colors as an environment appeared where it once was.

But Damien didn't immediately look at it.

He was overcome by the feeling of the environment before he could even see its appearance.

'The mana…'

"Wow."

That was the only thing he could say.

The mana was beautiful.

It was far denser than the lower universe. If mana was equated to gravity, a lower universe existence would be crushed under the pressure of the Heavenly World's energy.

And it wasn't just about density.

The mana was far purer. Damien felt like he was gaining more lifespan with every breath he took. His body was revitalized, his fatigue drifted away, and an aura of spirituality seemed to fill his entire being.

This was mana of a Divine level. The myriad of laws hidden within it could be clearly felt, and the environment created by this energy had to be unbelievable.

Damien started to understand why people feared the Heavenly World.

What would a person born into such an atmosphere be like?

If they went to the lower universe, their body would be a treasure nobody could compete with. They would have talent on par with what Damien showed despite not having any assistance from the Void.

That was their natural advantage, because the Heavenly World's mana was perfect.

'This…'

Damien closed his eyes and focused on it.

He was a man who controlled Existence. The disparity between the energies he'd felt before meant a lot more to him than anyone else.

He knew what the Void felt like, and he knew the energy that the Envoy's race used. Compared to both of them, this mana was completely different. It hardly even held similarities to regular mana in the first place.

As he picked it apart, he did his best to completely internalize its structure and replicate it, but surprisingly enough…

'...I can't do it.'

He didn't have the ability.

"Hahaha…"

He laughed strangely.

How long had it been since he felt something like this?

How long had it been since there was something he "couldn't do?"

It was a little bit hollow, but he had to admit it was a great feeling. It made him even more excited for this place.

'Even if I don't have any peers at my own level, I can be certain there are people who can kill me here.'

He, who had the Authority of Immortality, could be killed!

He already knew it would be like this.

If even the Void wouldn't tell him about it, Gods had to be existences beyond his imagination.

But feeling it with his own body was a completely different thing from just being told.

He didn't even have to meet them to understand, but his desire to find one and spar them was at an all-time high.

'I should probably not stand around like this.'

He got absorbed in the mana, but he didn't completely cut off his senses. There was nobody and nothing nearby, but he had to be careful, because this was a completely new environment.

He knew nothing.

He was a country bumpkin like the day he left Earth.

He opened his eyes to look at the splendiferous location he'd arrived in.

It was in the middle of nowhere.

Great trees that rose hundreds and thousands of feet into the air populated every inch of the land around him, their leaves shimmering as the sunlight struck their various shades of red, green, and blue.

The bright sky was hidden behind their canopy, but hints of its magnificence streaked down through the gaps and decorated the world with a plethora of dancing shadows that highlighted the ground below.

Green grasses and lush vegetation were everywhere. It was impossible to see a place that an unknown herb or plant didn't inhabit, and of course, the flora was accompanied by its resident fauna, filling the atmosphere with a variety of calls and chirps.

The wind brushed lightly through the air. It was filled with mana and colored in its own right, but maintained its ingrained state with the environment. As it breezed past Damien, he was struck with so many sensations that he couldn't explain, really cementing the fact that he was in a new world in his mind.

'Should I explore…?'

Did he want to explore this place, or did he want to find a city?

The latter would definitely be much more beneficial, but he was truly intrigued by this world. His adventurous spirit was lit aflame by its wonders, and he didn't want to suppress it.

'But…maybe I should wait a bit.'

He could always come back later.

Right now, his lack of information was too debilitating.

'Alright, let's do it like that.'

The only thing he knew about the Heavenly World was the existence of Void Palace, the influence his father ran.

It was a beautiful place, but it was mysterious, and it had dangers with enough power to slaughter even True Gods.

It was an environment where even Damien couldn't guarantee his safety, so he had to find at least the knowledge to help him survive until he could.

He nodded his head as he came to the decision.

'Let's find a city then, and hopefully, on the way…'

Information costed money, and Damien didn't have any money that would be valuable in the Heavenly World. He also didn't know what the herbs and heavenly resources he had were worth in a place that had even greater resources, so relying on wealth right now wasn't the right choice.

Didn't he have a better method?

'I don't want to kill needlessly, but if some unfortunate soul just so happens to test me…well, I should take the gifts they bring me, no?'

He smiled, once again breathing in the energy of the world.

He could hear them in his mind. The World Cores he'd bound that were confident enough to speak were quite agitated by the scenery around him, and they were making their opinions known.

'Good.'

He took a step. It was the first step he truly took in the Heavenly World.

'Let's get to work.'

Whoooosh!

His body vanished, becoming one with the breeze.

His destination was unknown, as was the path he'd take to get there, but he didn't care.

What was the point of coming here if he was just going to focus on work?

This was a new world. It had been mentioned to death already, but this fact was so prevalent in Damien's mind that it had to be so.

Since he was here, he planned to enjoy it thoroughly.

And nobody would be able to stop him!
