Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 903

Chapter 890 Under the Rift

Thor asked An to continue her collection journey, and then he turned into a feather and floated underground.

He did not take a faster sinking method, because the concept of the bottomless pit mentioned by An and the large amount of inert black powder in the soil made Thor act cautiously.

A feathering technique consumes almost no magic power to maintain.

After falling about a hundred meters, Thor found that the crack did not narrow, and the width of the crack was about the same as the width of the crack he saw when he just fell to the ground.

After falling another hundred meters, he found the remains of half a skeleton monster in the soil on the side, and then ordered Xiaozao to gnaw out the bones embedded in the cracks.

Xiaozao liked this job very much and found the fun of finding treasure in it, so without Thor’s instructions, he carefully searched in the cliffs on both sides.

Because Thor did not descend quickly and Xiaozao’s mouth was very sharp, he soon gnawed out a few more pieces of the skeleton monster’s remains.

But Thor soon had no energy to pay attention to Xiaozao’s movements.

After descending another five hundred meters, a palpitation suddenly rushed into his brain.

He lowered his head slightly and looked down.

It was still pitch black below, and the sunlight above could not reach here at all. And Thor’s mental power still could not find the end.

Just as An said, this place seemed to be a crack without a bottom, and the only thing he could get by continuing to fall was to continue to fall.

“How could such a deep crack suddenly appear here? Was it attacked by a fourth-level wizard, or for some other reason?”

Thor had already guessed what kind of world the Chaos Domain was and what continent it belonged to.

He suspected that this might be the unlucky continent that was directly swallowed by the Eye of the Abyss.

Otherwise, there was no way to explain the black tide pollution that filled the continent – even though it had been inertized into black powder.

If the Chaos Domain was just a continent, then its area was limited and its depth should also be limited.

If this bottomless crack really ran through the entire continent, what was underneath the continent?

And what did this new space represent? Why did Sander’s ancestors have the key to this place?

Out of caution about the black tide, Thor had never deliberately explored the truth of the entire Chaos Domain. But now he needed more bone monsters to fight against Flim’s strength. Now that he had found this rift, he naturally wanted to try to explore it.

Thor continued to descend. He didn’t know how far he had descended.

Because of the darkness and the lack of contrast around him, the concepts of time and space began to blur.

Thor didn’t know how long he had descended, and suddenly he seemed to step on something.

But in his mental perception, there should be nothing here.

His body felt that he had reached the bottom, but his mental power didn’t think so.

Should he continue to descend?

Thor didn’t hesitate, he chose to continue.

Because there was nothing here, only some bone remains, which were not so important compared to the secret of this rift.

He stepped on the bottom of his foot a little harder, and then… it didn’t move.

He used magic to try to explore the bottom.

Just like in the Lost Corridor, the magic was absorbed and disappeared without a trace.

“Are the materials in the Lost Corridor the same as here? Or are they from the same source?”

Thor stopped and sat cross-legged on the ground casually.

Although it was dark here and it had descended very deep, it was still a chaotic area. There were no enemies around and the elemental particles were lazily floating in the air.

Instead, it formed a quiet and safe dark room.

This kind of dark room was very suitable for meditation and for calming down and thinking.

“Magic power will be absorbed, but mental power can penetrate. So if we use the soul-leaving method, theoretically we should be able to pass through this layer.”

But Thor was not in a hurry to try.

“After all, this place is full of black tide pollution. Even if it is inert, it cannot be treated casually. It is not appropriate to rashly leave the soul here. Let’s try it first.”

Thor thought of how he had used the fate line to pass through the right-angle gap between two corridors in the Lost Corridor, and found Stuart who was secretly imprisoned by Flim.

Maybe there is a gap here that the fate line can pass through.

This time, Thor carefully considered the feasibility of the plan and thought it was worth a try. Moreover, the fate line runs faster than the soul body, so it can be evacuated in time when encountering danger.

Thor reached out his hand in the dark and gently pressed on the ground where he was sitting cross-legged.

This ground was smooth and flat, unlike the land, and even stone bricks could not be so smooth.

It was like a layer of glass, or a layer of plastic film.

Thor tried to knock on this film with the fate line. Then he felt as if he was knocking on glass with his fingers.

He exerted a little force, and the fate line did not penetrate.

“If it is a complete partition, I am afraid that my current destiny line cannot break through. Is there no gap?”

Thor extended countless destiny lines from the palms of his hands, spreading around the gap, and soon covered the space within a radius of ten meters.

“The black powder here will more or less block the range of spiritual power detection. It will consume more energy to detect further.” Thor stood up and decided to measure the bottom of the crack with his feet. The

bottom layer of the crack is not a cone, but a long crack, and even the width is the same as the upper surface.

This made Thor more certain of his initial idea: this is a completely broken “cookie”, and the gap left when trying to get close together.

Compared with the width of the entire continent, this crack less than five meters wide is really like the gap left in the middle when two halves of a cookie are closed again.

And this membrane under the land is a bit like… glue used to stick cookies together!

“It’s better to be cautious and not tear the glue apart, so as not to cause any more problems in the Chaos Domain.”

Considering the stability of the Chaos Domain continent, Thor did not try to break the membrane under his feet by force, but walked forward in one direction, while constantly probing the bottom with his destiny line to find possible gaps.

After walking underground for nearly an hour, just as Thor was thinking about whether to go up to An first to report safety before continuing to search, a section of his destiny line suddenly disappeared.

Thor hurriedly sensed the location of that section of the destiny line, which turned out to be about one meter away in the mountain beside him.

There, there was a small crack in the membrane. It was very small, probably only the size of a needle tip, and only the destiny line could scan and probe almost without dead ends, and fortunately, this crack was discovered.

“This is as difficult as threading a needle with your eyes closed. Xiaozao, bite through it!”

The crack was pressed by the mountain, but fortunately it was not too far from Thor, so Xiaozao could easily open up a passage.

After opening up a fist-thick passage, Thor’s mental power could scan the state of the crack more clearly.

Just like the smooth membrane under his feet, there is also a smooth layer under the mountain, or the continent. This layer may even be spread all over the Chaos Continent.

Thor took a deep breath and carefully followed his perception along the disappearing line of fate to explore the world under the membrane.

Then, he suddenly opened his eyes.

After passing through the crack under the crack, he seemed to have come to an endless universe!

Quiet, vast, and the distance around him could not be distinguished… the stars were shining.
