Chapter 783: Final Floor
The pressure on this floor had moved beyond uncomfortable and caused real pain and subtle damage to his body. He was still able to endure it, especially since he had long ago mastered a method to isolate himself from his own pain. Anything over a certain threshold was routed to that compartmentalized part of his mind. Even so, he didnt want to stay down here for too long as the damage to his body would continue to increase.
Not willing to give up before hed even made any gains he pressed on and passed through the most well preserved rooms hed seen so far. Unfortunately, he didnt find anything of value. The rooms he passed through were filled with plain and simple furniture. There werent even any small personal items to be had, which led him to believe this place was abandoned before the Violent Sun Sect met its end, or perhaps the strange pressure destroyed everything with the passage of time. If the place was merely looted, the aggressors probably wouldnt have cared about things like clothing or simple decorations. Then again, perhaps everyone who lived down here in the past kept all of their belongings in Storage Treasures and there was nothing here to begin with.
He walked down a long wide hallway and passed by dozens of small chambers as well as many large training rooms. Then, he came to the end of the hallway and found himself facing off with a huge circular door. There were some old array symbols carved into its surface, but most of them had been damaged, either by a deep groove caused by some sort of cutting tool, or had been smashed out by something like a hammer. With so much damage the formations that must have defended this door were long gone. Sage stepped forward and pushed upon the door, causing the huge stone disc to swing inward on a set of hinges to the side.
Stepping inside, his eyes widened as he found himself inside an immense chamber. The whole room was in the shape of a huge sphere and he found himself standing at the halfway point of that sphere. If he were to step off the path hed find himself sliding down the curved side of that sphere to a spot a thousand feet down. From the doorway, there was a twenty foot wide path extending out towards the center of the sphere. On the sides of the path, there were tall beams shooting back towards the wall on either side of the door which meant that this was not just a walkway, but a sort of suspension bridge.
That wind had carried its own primal terror that he had no resistance against. That slight contact had already caused his mental cultivation to shake. The Infinite Immaterial Palace that built a castle-like structure in his Spiritual Sea had rumbled from that touch. It was something akin to an earthquake, doing no harm yet, but if the scale continued to rise then it would eventually reach a point where his mind would crumble to bits.
What the hell was that?
Sage had retreated back through the doorway, and was pleased to see that even with the door wide open, whatever it was that was inside could not escape. He took a closer look at the area inside the door and the pathway continued forward for a few hundred feet without any further suspension. Then it ended at a round platform with a short railing around it. From his place he walked from one edge of the path to the other, changing the angle he could see into the energy net and see more of the spherical area inside. Unfortunately, even after giving it such a thorough examination with his eyes, and Foresight, he didnt see anything out of place.
Even so, he still felt that something was terribly wrong and didnt dare to step inside again until he had a better idea of what it was. After just an instant a symbol flared to life on his forehead and Sages eyes took on a very strange look. They bugged out slightly and seemed to split into three parts. His eyes took on a compound look, with three horizontal lines separating 3 pseudo pupils. The compound division of his eyes made them look much like they were drawn with pointillism, but with very large dots used to create the effect.
Just as his eyes were in the process of shifting, the doorway in front of him suddenly flashed with light and there was a loud boom.
