Chapter 2140  Skysummit

The people of this world climbed this mountain to get to the top and from there left for space. Alex wasn\'t sure why anyone had to do that. Why could they not just fly directly from where they were?

Silvermist had an answer for that.

"You can if you want to. No one will stop you," he said. "But most people like to climb this mountain to the peak because it gives them an exact spot they can start from no matter who they are."

Alex gave a confused look. "But I thought it depended on how close one got to the Ever Dark realm, not how much they traveled."

"Yeah, but people like competing with each other, and starting from this one mountain lets people know that you didn\'t overextend yourself at the start or whatever other excuses you may come up with. It\'s purely for competitive spirit, nothing else."

"I see," Alex said. They began climbing the mountain that was full of snow, flying toward the peak.

Alex looked to his right, confusion filling his face again. "Senior, how are you flying?" he asked Grimsight.

"What do you mean?" Grimsight asked.

"You don\'t have a cultivation base, do you? How can you fly without Qi?" Alex asked.

Grimsight chuckled a little. "Who said I don\'t have any Qi?" he asked. "How would I be your master\'s guard if I don\'t have any Qi?"

"Oh… I thought you were just a body cultivator," Alex said. "Wait, do you really have Qi? How can I not sense it?"

Alex looked around at the other two. Despite them being in the Divine Realm, he could sense their Qi. It wasn\'t right to call it Qi, precisely, but rather their aura.

He could sense their aura, but with Grimsight, there was absolutely nothing there. He could sense him physically with his mind, but there wasn\'t any sort of Qi or aura surrounding him.

It was the most peculiar feeling.

"I do have Qi," the man said. "You just can\'t sense it."

"Oh… do you perhaps have a concealment technique active?" Alex asked. Even if something like that was active, one would have to let out some sort of aura from time to time.

"You are on the right track," Grimsight said and elaborated no more. Alex wanted to learn what he meant, but he wouldn\'t go around asking those questions to this old man. He simply nodded and moved on. They flew through the snow-covered mountain, cold wind blowing at them, hitting them with bits of sharp ice in the air. But to the Immortals and Divinities, it struggled to even tickle them.

They continuously climbed up and up, and at some point, the snow stopped blowing so hard. The air got thinner and thinner and at some point it stopped being much of a thing as well.

Alex felt that intangible barrier that existed in every world at great heights that stopped people from flying out of it into Space. It was slowly affecting him too, even though he was sure that wasn\'t supposed to happen.

He was sure that as an Immortal, he was supposed to be allowed to fly into space. As it turned out, he was allowed, but the barrier still worked on him just as a measure to slow him down.

At this point, Saints would have to stop flying and instead walk, but as an Immortal, Alex could still continue to fly. Alex tried employing his Intent on that intangible barrier to stop it from working on him.

To his surprise, it worked tremendously well. Immediately, all the pressure that he was feeling was gone, letting him fly smoothly. He kept at it for a while before they arrived at the very top of the mountain.

The peak of the mountain was not as pointed as Alex had thought it was when he had seen it from the bottom. It was wide enough to let over 200 people stand around comfortably.

"Oh, and there is another reason to come here," Silvermist said, pointing to a man who stood by the edge of the mountain, wearing bluish-white robes, around whom people gathered.

Alex looked at the man, not understanding who he was.

"Go buy us 4 talisman," Silvermist said.

Alex nodded.

"No, just 3," Grimsight said.

Silvermist turned toward Grimsight for a second before nodding. "3."

Alex nodded, despite not understanding what sort of talisman it was that he was purchasing. He waited beside the few people that were purchasing from him and finally purchased 3 talisman when it was his turn.

The man sold them to him at a rather steep price. It cost him 20 thousand Spirit stones per talisman. This was the most pricey talisman he had ever purchased.

Alex brought the talisman back toward his group while checking to see what it was that it did. To his surprise, it was a recording talisman, and the thing it recorded was distance. It already had a tremendously huge number recorded, which was the distance between the Peak and the Ever-Dark realm.

"Oh… does this lower as we go above?" he asked when he returned to them. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Yes," Silvermist said, taking his talisman and handing the other one over to Snowleaf. "And you can only purchase it from here."

Alex nodded as he understood another reason why they had to come here.

"So do we leave now?" Alex asked. "Not yet," Silvermist answered, looking up at the sky. The Ever-Dark realm was not at the zenith yet, so they couldn\'t go just yet.

"Only when the realm is directly over us is when it is the closest to us. Its when that number is recorded. So we start at midnight.

Alex nodded. It was an hour or so more before midnight so they waited.

Alex looked up, feeling the gravity slowly pull him upward instead of the side as the realm moved toward their zenith. During the day, the gravity increased in every person, and during the night, it decreased.

It was a weird feeling to be had, sure, but the nobility of it ended quite quickly. Alex had stopped being bothered by the shifting gravity in just a few days.

The only reason it had even lasted that long was because of his Dao of Gravity.

Silvermist looked up and smiled. "It\'s time," he said.

At the same time, the hundreds of people that stood around the peak began preparing to leave as well. Alex got up and took out his talisman, waiting for just the right moment.

And that moment came.

He activated the talisman, just as everyone around them, and began flying up. There was a bit of pushback on him that tried to stop him from escaping the atmosphere, but Alex didn\'t let it.

This was his first time going to space. Nothing was going to stop him.
