With a thought, Zhang Ling summoned the White Serpent puppet, which instantly shot out and plunged into the sea. Strangely, the seabed seemed like a void, and the White Serpent vanished in a flash. Simultaneously, the divine sense attached to the puppet lost all connection.
Zhang Ling wasn't overly concerned, as he had anticipated this. The command he had given the puppet was to return automatically after about a dozen breaths once inside.
He only needed to wait a moment for the puppet to return, and then, based on the information from the divine sense attached to the puppet, he could roughly determine what was beneath the seabed.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the White Serpent puppet returned.
A wisp of divine sense covered the puppet, sensing the information transmitted from the original wisp of divine sense on the puppet. Suddenly, Zhang Ling revealed a joyful expression and laughed, "So that's how it is!"
The seabed was indeed empty, leading to another sea area. The puppet could pass through, so he could as well. It was like a teleportation array.
However, Zhang Ling knew this wasn't a teleportation array, nor was it formed by other restrictions. He had a guess in his mind, but the guess was too absurd, and he hadn't considered it earlier.
But now, he felt his guess might be correct.
This seabed might be a large spatial rift, which could explain this strange phenomenon. Very few people understood spatial rifts; he had only seen some records in ancient books. He wasn't sure if it was one now.
Spatial rifts were not good places to be, often accompanied by great danger.
Spatial rifts generally refer to weak points in the space of this world, cracks and fissures that appear due to the flow of space.
For example, during the ancient times when ancient demons invaded this world, they found these weak points in space and used powerful external forces to break through the space and descend into this world.
This was a very extreme situation, only achievable by powerful forces far exceeding this world, such as the Spirit Realm or the Ancient Demon Realm.
Besides this situation, some spatial rifts are naturally formed, which are extremely special natural phenomena. There is a big difference between the two.
Spatial rifts can appear anywhere in the world, even a tiny spot the size of a grain of rice can form a spatial rift. Large spatial rifts may lead to other worlds. But generally, spatial rifts will repair themselves and will not exist for long.
The danger of spatial rifts comes from another situation.
Most spatial rifts are mobile, making them hard to defend against. These unstable, mobile spatial rifts are extremely secretive. Divine sense and ordinary treasures can’t detect them. They appear suddenly and disappear suddenly.
If one gets caught in it, they can be instantly cut into pieces.
These mobile spatial rifts are ineffective against any defense. Colliding with them only leads to death.
Of course, there are relatively stable spatial rifts, often leading to independent areas.
According to records, some powerful sects control a very small number of these stable spaces, using them as special secret realms.
In addition, this independent space can also be used to refine Sumeru mustard seeds, which are true spatial treasures.
Of course, this space also has great hidden dangers. Some can exist for tens of thousands of years, or even remain unchanged forever, while others may suddenly disappear.
He now guessed that the strange black light he had discovered earlier and this strange seabed might be spatial rifts.
And since he was not in any danger now, these must be stable spatial rifts, stationary in one place. It was just that the spatial rift on the seabed was too large to see the edges.
As for whether the guess was correct or not, now was not the time to consider these things.
Since he could go from the seabed to another sea area, Zhang Ling naturally wanted to pass through and leave this place. Having made up his mind, he headed straight for the surface of the sea.
