Eerie Darkness and suffocating silence,… a combination that could send shivers running down the spine of any person that could experience such a place.

As Shin Jiao slowly opens his eyes, he could feel pain all over his body. Even though he is wearing his bio-exoskeleton suit, he still feels that his body has suffered too much from that fall.

With his eyes wide open, he immediately noticed the figure lying on top of him. He showed a hint of worry and quickly checked the woman's condition. She seems to have suffered a few fractures on her bones but she was still able to survive that fall. Maybe it's because his own body cushioned her fall which explained the throbbing pain in his chest and stomach.

As Shin Jiao also scanned his body, he could see that a few of his bones are also cracked.

Even though he is already very strong and is wearing a suit, he still suffered such injuries. This only explains how deep the ravine was.

While looking around, Shin Jiao saw few other figures lying on the ground. Although they are still alive, they have already lost their consciousness.

At that time, when he and the woman were falling, a few guards and shadow creatures actually chased after them. And while plummeting down, he has no choice but to engage those enemies in a fight.

His opponents were using their flying swords and elemental attacks while he uses his psychokinesis and domain to fend off their assault and kill as many as he could.

All of a sudden, he felt that there is something dangerous approaching from below. Then a large creature coming from below him appears. Shin Jiao was very quick to react and using his Thunder Blade technique, he rendered that shadow beast paralyzed and then used its huge body as his cushion, thus surviving the long descent.

Shin Jiao waved his hand and did not hesitate to kill those shadow creatures that are still alive around him along with the helpless soldiers.

He also created a holy array on the ground to chase away the shadow essence within the bodies of those deceased soldiers.

Shin Jiao also did not waste any of those energy cores this time. While checking his surroundings, he showed contentment after all of his enemies were taken care of, and then he shifted his attention and carefully treated the woman's wounds.

After a while, Shin Jiao looks at the area where they have landed and was a bit distracted upon realizing that he could actually not hear any trace of sound.

With bafflement in his eyes, he carefully checked the surroundings and noticed the gray mist in the air. Although it does not hamper his vision, the rest of his senses are blocked.

Shin Jiao was truly shocked at this time and did not know what is happening in his surroundings.

As he tries to feel the energy in his body and heaves a sigh of relief as has discovered that he still has plenty in his dantian. However, as he tries to activate a spell, he was surprised that the energy he cast vanished into thin air. It was as if the environment would automatically dispersers any universe's energy in the air.

This baffled him because he was clearly able to create an array on the ground. As he began to analyze things, Shin Jiao gave up as he knew that this mysterious event would not be easily answered.

In fact, Shin Jiao has experienced the same phenomenon in Planet Gaeus Ro; hence he is not that surprised anymore.

As he carefully checks his surroundings one more time, he could now see that there is a concentration of energy in a particular direction. It seems that every speck of energy in the area is being absorbed there.

Shin Jiao did not dare deactivate his bio-armor as he carefully carried the woman towards the direction of the energy concentration.

Soon he arrives in a place where there is a huge empty plane. In that empty plane, he could see numerous spatial cracks everywhere.

While looking at those spatial cracks, Shin Jiao suddenly realized something.

The place he is in right now may not be the cliff where he has fallen. As he tried to recall his memory of what had happened at that time, he suddenly showed realization in his eyes.

When he was falling, he saw a mist-covered ravine. But then suddenly, he noticed that they seem to have entered a spatial crack at that time upon entering the mist, but everything happened just in an instant.

Since he was busy fighting against his enemies, he did not notice everything in full detail.

Shin Jiao now realized that he might not even be in the Osmond clan anymore.

He cautiously came closer to the concentration and could now feel the stabilization of the Dao elements in the air.

He tried to conjure a simple fire in his fingertips and saw that it was successful; hence he showed a satisfied smile on his face. He took out some equipment from his ring and began to do a soul imprint extraction to the woman.

This would render the black box or anything that was holding her soul imprint useless and would reset her back to her original resurrection stone.

Then he takes out a jade plate and then puts her soul imprint on it. Shin Jiao then hid the jade plate and carefully put some clothes on her. He began to calculate the distance between his location right now and to his town.

When Shin Jiao discovers the distance, he was a bit shocked. This is because he discovered that he is actually not in the human race territory anymore. The distance for the woman to be able to return is far too long and it would need a lot of energy for her to be sent to the town via teleportation or instantaneous travel.

"Damn it… I never expected that this would create such a problem." Shin Jiao muttered with a tinge of helplessness in his eyes.

Without a choice, he took out some pills in his ring and feed them to the woman.

He waited for a while and soon the woman on his side moaned. Shin Jiao just sits there and waited for her to open her eyes.

As the woman slowly opens her eyes, she immediately saw a dark and misty sky. And then she could feel that she is in an environment where there is a rich amount of the universe's energy in the air.

When the woman saw an unfamiliar environment she was suddenly in a panic.

"Shhh… Calm down… you're safe…" Shin Jiao said while patting the woman's shoulder.

The woman was already in a panic, but upon seeing a weird creature beside her, she was now thoroughly horrified. This is because Shin Jiao's bio-exoskeleton made him looks like one of those humanoid monsters.

Seeing her reaction, Shin Jiao quickly deactivate his helmet and showed his smiling face.

Upon discovering that he is actually another human just like her, she felt a bit at ease, but of course, a bit of anxiety is still present in her face.

"I'm the one who rescued you in Gipard town…" Shin Jiao began explaining what had happened to them.

After hearing what had happened, the woman's expression slowly calms down. But then upon remembering the shame she suffered from being raped, and tortured, her tears began gushing as she cried uncontrollably.

Shin Jiao seems to have guessed what she is feeling as he just carefully patted her shoulder to calm her down.

After crying for a bit, the woman fell asleep. She seems to be really tired and stressed out after what she just have gone through.

...

The location that Shin Jiao and the woman are staying at this time is a small hole on the ground that Shin Jiao created. He has already set up a camouflage array to hide the hole and their presence.

"I need to see more of what this place is…" he muttered as he takes out some metal ore in his ring and other materials.

After about an hour, Shin Jiao has finished creating a rough-looking drone that looks like a fist-size ball with many eyes.

Activating the flying runes inside of it, the ball-shaped drone rose up in the sky and began looking at the empty place in front of them. Shin Jiao activated his helmet and everything that the drone is seeing was displayed on his screen.

Not long later, Shin Jiao has fairly scouted a part of the empty plane and his expression is now showing befuddlement. While he was thinking of what he has just seen, he suddenly remembers that the wide spans of an empty plane filled with spatial cracks are actually very familiar to him.

He knew that he might have seen that same thing from somewhere. In fact, this same large empty place or he might even call it 'space' is actually a map, a huge map of the stars.

Then he suddenly rummages through his ring and saw the simple-looking orb.

With a smile, Shin Jiao takes out the orb from his ring.

But as soon as he did this, he suddenly feels a strong energy surge and knew that something might have gone wrong. Without a second thought, he immediately hid the orb back to his ring.

Although he was able to hide the orb, those entities in this place have already felt that surge of aura and have already located his position.

Unknown to Shin Jiao many gazes in the sky have already shifted and are currently watching him.

"The map of the galaxies… I knew it! The map is still in the immortal land… Hahaha…"

"I told you that it was hidden…"

"But how could such an insignificant figure got hold of that thing?"

"We must get that map… It would be most helpful in our campaigns…"

"No, that map should not leave the immortal land. No matter what happened it must not get out of this planet."

"But that human is in this place… He might be planning to use one of these jump holes. If he did, then it would be hard for us to find the map once again…"

"Wait! I think… I think this would be for the best."

"…"

A few voices from above began to discuss while Shin Jiao is oblivious of the many presences that are watching him.

He just tried to think of the reason why that fluctuation suddenly happened.. He now knew that the universe map that he discovered from that cave from before would have its use someday, and this might be that day.
