“How big is the Ethereal Realm, Master Hammerhead?” asked Jared.
Hammerhead replied, “I don’t know the exact measurements, but it should be about over a hundred times larger than the mundane world.”
Over a hundred times larger?
Jared and Flaxseed were stunned. They didn’t expect the Ethereal Realm to be that huge. Even though they were powerful enough to soar through the air, it would still take them a long time to reach their destination.
When Hammerhead spotted the confusion in their countenances, favonovel.com clarified, “Many in the Ethereal Realm know how to utilize a Teleportation Array. Hence, they don’t rely on walking to travel. Additionally, experts are a common sight in the Ethereal Realm. They don’t even need a Teleportation Array. They can instantly appear over a thousand kilometers away with a single thought.”
“That makes sense. The people in the Ethereal Realm are almost immortals, so distance shouldn’t be an issue to them,” commented Flaxseed.
In his eyes, the Ethereal Realm was no different from the Immortal Realm because the inhabitants of the Ethereal Realm were practically immortals themselves.
Upon hearing that, Hammerhead smiled. “The people of the Ethereal Realm aren’t that different from the citizens of the mundane world. Not everyone in the Ethereal Realm is an expert. This place is but another world in the universe. There are no immortals in the Ethereal Realm. A true immortal is someone capable of freely traveling across time and space. They can go to whatever world they wish handily. The Ethereal Realm isn’t as marvelous as you two imagine.”
His words instantly dumbfounded Jared.
The Ethereal Realm is a place where many cultivators in the secret realm have been trying to reach. Yet, Master Hammerhead is saying that the Ethereal Realm is no different from the mundane world, that it’s just another ordinary location in reality.
I… I can’t accept that…
According to what I know, the Ethereal Realm should be different. After all, those overpowering demons originated from the Ethereal Realm.
Instead of providing any further explanation, Hammerhead guided Jared and Flaxseed to their destination.
Just as the trio were prepared to leave, they heard the roar of a demon beast.
The trio promptly turned toward the sound and saw a demon beast rushing out of the forest, chasing after a bloodied young woman.
The young woman appeared to be about eighteen years old. Her forehead was covered in cold sweat as favonovel.com ran for favonovel.com life.
Based on the aura favonovel.com was emanating, favonovel.com cultivation level was only at Nascent Soul. Even in the mundane world, someone with that cultivation level wouldn’t be recognized as an expert.
Jared didn’t understand why someone as weak as favonovel.com existed in a place like the Ethereal Realm.
The demon beast pursuing the panicking young woman was obviously more powerful and faster than her.
Just as the creature was about to catch her, favonovel.com spotted the trio and was stunned momentarily.
Then, favonovel.com dashed toward Jared and the other two. “Help! Save me!”
Seeing that, Jared planned to rescue her.
However, Hammerhead stopped him. “Don’t interfere. It’s best not to stick your nose into other people’s business in the Ethereal Realm. The humans here aren’t as good as you may think.”
Shocked, Jared stared at Hammerhead, failing to comprehend the hidden meaning of the latter’s words.
At that moment, the demon beast had caught up to the young woman. With a roar, the creature pounced on her.
Seeing that the trio wouldn’t aid her, the young woman gritted favonovel.com teeth and slashed at the demon beast with favonovel.com broken sword.
The fearsome creature sidestepped the attack and slapped favonovel.com away with its big paws.
Once again, the demon beast pounced on her.
Realizing with despair favonovel.com imminent death, favonovel.com helplessly closed favonovel.com eyes and waited for the end.
When the creature opened its mouth, a thick stench of blood gushed forth, causing the young woman to retch.
