Chapter 242: The Vast World

Fang Zhengzhi looked at the sky.

He had thought that the light was from a firework. However, it did not explode into various patterns in the sky, it simply spread outwards and downwards.

It was almost like the moonlight before, covering the entire land below it.

In the blink of an eye, it had enveloped the entire Cang Ling Mountain, including Fang Zhengzhi, Chi Guyan, and Ping Yang.

Soon after, the entire area began to shake and the earth began to crack. Black crack lines began to form, and the entire area threatened to collapse.

This was a familiar feeling.

Fang Zhengzhi had felt this way in the World of the Sage once before. The entire world had collapsed, sending him crashing into a sea of swords below.

But this time...

Cang Ling Mountain was collapsing.

"What's going on?" Fang Zhengzhi was confused.

"The collapse of the World of the Sage was understandable since it was a pocket dimension. However, Cang Ling Mountain existed in the real world. Why would it collapse?

Was this the apocalypse?

Questions flew by in Fang Zhengzhi's mind.

Chi Guyan's expression became increasingly solemn. Her eyes glowed icily as her posture became more and more aggressive.

However, she waited and did not move.

Ping Yang had also experienced the same thing in the World of the Sage. Even so, she was still taken aback by what was unfolding. She clearly did not know what was happening either.

"Boom!"

A loud sound echoed out.

The cracks in the ground began to disappear, healing as quickly as they formed. In the blink of an eye, everything returned to normal, the stars and the moon shining brightly on the land.

The mist was heavy inside the woods. It was almost as if nothing had happened.

Fang Zhengzhi was getting increasingly suspicious. He quickly scanned his surroundings. The flora and the sky were completely unchanged...

It seemed like a happy ending. The worst was finally over. However, he still had a bad feeling in his gut.

What just happened? Why did it disappear so quickly?

If it had truly blown over, it would be so underwhelming.

It was just thunder and light showers...

"Sister Yan... what's going on?" Ping Yang looked at Chi Guyan.

"If my guess is right, I think we are trapped!" Chi Guyan looked around her and frowned, deep in thought.

"Trapped? But we didn't step on any traps, why would we be trapped?" Ping Yang was still confused. However, she did not mention that what she just saw was quite similar to what had happened in the World of the Sage.

This was Cang Ling Mountain, in the real world.

Such a scene did not make any sense.

Fang Zhengzhi was also at a loss. As such, he did not interrupt Chi Guyan. He listened intently by the side.

"If the entire Cang Ling Mountain is a trap, then we stepped right into it from the moment we entered." Chi Guyan looked up at the night sky.

"The entire Cang Ling Mountain? How can this be? Cang Ling Mountain has existed for aeons, yet no one has ever said that it was a trap. Furthermore, to make the entire mountain a trap..." Ping Yang was in disbelief.

"Is impossible right?"

"Yes." Ping Yang nodded.

"Normally, yes. That would be impossible due to the sheer size of Cang Ling Mountain. No one in the world would have the ability to incorporate Cang Ling Mountain into their pocket dimension. However... all that just happened meant that we have entered a whole new world!" Chi Guyan explained.

"A new world... does Sister Yan mean that someone transported the entire Cang Ling Mountain to a different... space?" Ping Yang said hesitantly.

"Mm." Chi Guyan nodded.

"But didn't Sister Yan just say that no one could possibly do such a thing?"

"No one can do it, but a treasure that exists in our legends can."

"What treasure?"

"The Vast World!"

"The Vast World?! What is that?"

"It was something that was destroyed centuries ago. I never expected it to resurface."

"It was destroyed?"

"Yes, it should not exist anymore. However, there is no other item in the world that could possibly turn the entire Cang Ling Mountain into a giant trap."

"What does The Vast World do?" Ping Yang was curious.

"The Vast World is one of the nine Divine Equipment. However, it is not like the others. The others are able to change the forces of battle in the blink of an eye. However, The Vast World is unable to do much in battle. The way to use it is extremely specific, however, it is still a Divine Equipment because... it can make a huge world a drop in the ocean!"

Chi Guyan paused.

"A drop in the ocean?" Fang Zhengzhi knew what that meant.

This term had originated from the Su's "First Visit to the Red Cliff". It represented a drop in the ocean, and was used to describe something incredibly minute and insignificant.

But, what did that have to do with the current situation?

Could it be...

Fang Zhengzhi thought of something all of a sudden.

The entire Cang Ling Mountain could be made into a drop in the ocean.

"What Sister Yan is saying is that someone has used The Vast World to morph Cang Ling Mountain into a drop in the ocean and absorbed it?" Ping Yang seemed to understand now, her eyes glimmering in disbelief.

"I doubt that it is that simple. If Cang Ling Mountain was merely absorbed into The Vast World, it could not be termed as one of the nine Divine Equipment.

"What else could there be?"

"I don't know either. The books do not describe it in detail, but there is one sentence which lucidly summarizes its prowess."

"What is it?"

"No one who enters The Vast World comes out alive!" Chi Guyan did not elaborate further, a conflicted look in her eyes.

She was slightly lost and depressed, but there was a hint of steely determination and excitement in her eyes.

It was impossible to know what Chi Guyan was thinking.

Fang Zhengzhi's thoughts were a lot simpler.

"That's it, we've been trapped... if we can't get back to the Northern Mountain Village by morning, what would happen... if the army came back?"

That was the top concern on Fang Zhengzhi's mind.
