Chapter 746
The occurrence of this unexpected event undoubtedly messed up Greem’s cultivation plans.
The urgent matter at hand wasn’t how to increase his power, but to create that Emblem of Fire armband as soon as possible. After all, it was the combination of two set pieces that could provide Greem with actual fire immunity, rather than before where he had to turn into his body of flames to be immune to fire.
If he had no choice but to go into the Fire Elementium Plane, he would not have a single companion who could accompany him.
The Fire Elementium Plane was the world of the fire elementium creatures. Second Grade adepts like Mary and Alice would not be able to endure the burning flames for extended periods of time, regardless of how good their magic resistance was. Even the tough Dragonborn Zacha couldn’t last in this aspect, let alone them.
That was why the only person that Greem could rely on was himself!
If his companions couldn’t survive in the Fire Elementium Plane, what other options were available to him?
The Fire Elementium Plane was a pure elementium plane. The plane itself rejected all other elementium apart from fire elementium. All magical equipment or accessories that needed to absorb external elementium to function would only have one use. They could not be replenished after being exhausted.
Magical scrolls, magical potions, wands, accessories; all of these tools could no longer be of much help to Greem.
He had no vision, hearing, sense of touch, and no sense of smell. Even his sense of space had vanished. The only thing that could help him in this strange and twisted world was his extended Spirit.
It was like falling into a dark and bottomless abyss. Everything around him was hidden behind a heavy shroud of darkness, making it impossible for Greem to see anything, even if his eyes were wide open. Greem quickly regained his composure after a brief moment of panic. He started to converse with the Chip.
“Chip, what is it with me? Why can’t I see anything?”
[Beep. According to the planar laws of the elementium world, no other elementium particles aside from fire elementium particles exist here. That is why normal human organs are no longer suited for this new world. Host must direct the reconstruction of the sensory system with his Spirits as the framework.]
“Begin construction now!”
[Beep. Host’s instructions received. New sensory system in process of construction. Estimated time required: Seven seconds. 7…6…5…4…3…2…1.]
As the countdown ended, Greem felt the darkness before him fade away. The shape of nearby objects started to become clear and appear in his vision. The strange mental flux extended in every direction like ripples on the surface of the water, feeding everything it sensed back to the source of the flux.
A brand new world slowly presented itself to Greem, just like that!
Greem slowly turned about and earnestly sensed the world around him.
It was a desolate and quiet plain. Apart from two or three sharp broken rocks around him, there were no other lifeforms or objects.
Greem squatted down in curiosity and felt the soft grass under his feet with his hand. The grass here was utterly different from material planes. All the grass and flowers were of a single color: red. If it weren’t for the fact that the tactile sensation resembled that of grass in the material plane, Greem would have suspected that they were only flames of a different state.
Greem applied some force and plucked a handful of red grass from the ground, placing it in his palm for better observation.
It was an ordinary handful of grass, but everything from its roots to its leaves was bright red. Even the dirt entangled in its roots was a dark red. The fire grass seemed to have lost the constant nourishment of fire elementium upon leaving the ground. It quickly wilted and withered away, losing all of its life force in an instant.
The next second, the grass in Greem’s hand–along with the dirt on its roots–exploded into sparks of fire in a sizzling blast.
Greem could sense pure and concentrated fire energy in these sparks!
