Chapter 2144 Yin
Of course, given how far away he was right now, it was still not much of an obstacle.
But as he got closer and it got stronger, he was beginning to slow down a lot.
They were around 200 thousand kilometer range when Silvermist spoke up. "We should be entering the threshold of where Immortals had trouble soon. Make sure to properly protect yourself."
Alex nodded. 10 minutes later, he felt it.
The cold from the Yin had increased to a point where it was bone-chilling. It prickled throughout his skin, penetrating deep into him, and hurting him. To Alex\'s surprise, he couldn\'t handle it with just his body alone.
The strength of his body made it difficult for the Yin to affect him as fast, but without Qi, he could feel the initial effects right away. He needed to protect himself with Qi.
He filled his body with his Qi and the penetrating Yin disappeared, leaving him with no such feeling at all. With this, he could continue flying for a while longer.
Alex looked on ahead, the large realm becoming larger and larger to his eyes. At this point, it was so large that it covered his entire field of view. And the tiny bits of light that did escape from it let everyone finally see it with a much clearer light.
The realm was mostly white. It was all frozen over, with a thick aura that covered it. Alex could see the thick blackness that came from the Yin aura that permeated throughout the entire land.
There was a sort of bubble around it too, confusing him. "Is there an atmosphere there?" Alex asked.
"There is," Silvermist answered. "But the yin has changed it to not be habitable. Once in a while, some plants grow that can thrive in strong Yin, but it is impossible to search for those. You would need a long time to search for it, and because Yin aura disrupts even Divine sense there, searching for them is pretty much impossible."
Alex nodded as he continued looking ahead. The aura got stronger, but he could handle it for now. Ahead of him, a few Immortals had slowed down, now treading forward slowly.
Alex sensed their cultivation base when he got closer and realized they were barely in the Immortal Transcendent realm. They shouldn\'t be having a hard time right away, but they had slowed down nonetheless.
Alex asked Silvermist for the reason and got a simple answer. "Unlike you, they have no one looking after them. If they get close too quickly, they won\'t be able to protect themselves should the Yin suddenly overwhelm them. If they get inflicted with too much Yin, there is a large possibility that they will die. So they take their time going forward so that they can leave immediately should a problem arise."
Alex nodded. He wouldn\'t have to slow down as he had these two around him, protecting him. A while later, he was still forced to stop as the yin got thicker, penetrating into his skin more.
He tried using his Qi to protect himself, but at this point, it wasn\'t working. He needed more than just Qi.
He could use his Yang Qi alone, and that would most definitely supplement him for a long distance. But that also meant giving away the fact that he had a very potent Yang aura. That would raise questions, so he would rather not show it right now.

There was nothing to gain from getting too close to the realm anyway.
Alex tried using blood aura, but it was so weak that it didn\'t even do anything. All it did was make Grimsight turn his head toward him, possibly noticing what he was doing.
Silvermist hadn\'t sensed it so Alex wondered why Grimsight could. It was weird what that old man was capable of.
Since his body didn\'t work, his Qi was beginning to stop working, and his blood arua did nothing at all, the only thing he could use now was his Spiritual energy.
Or more precisely, his Intent.
As soon as Alex forced out his Intent, pushing against the Yin using his own understanding of Yin, it moved away from him, no longer affecting him.
Grimsight turned at once and even Silvermist turned toward him this time around. "What? How is your Intent so strong?" Silvermist asked.
"I\'ve trained my Intent for situations like this recently," Alex said.
"Sure, but it is still too strong, isn\'t it?" Silvermist said. "With your cultivation base, it shouldn\'t…"
He thought for a moment. "Does your physique allow you to improve your Spiritual energy too?" he asked.
"No, I used a technique to improve it," Alex answered. "It\'s stronger than what my cultivation allows it to be, but… it also lowers how much of it I have. It\'s a give and take."
Silvermist noded. "Even then, how do you have such a strong Intent?" he asked, confused. "Have you been around places with a strong Yin aura before?"
Alex nodded. The Yin cave in the Ivory kingdom of the Eastern Continent was where he had been around Yin which was much stronger than what he was facing right now.
"There is a strong Yin cave in the lower realm I came from," Alex said. "I\'ve been there before and trained within it."
"Right!" Grimsight said suddenly. "You came from a lower realm that used to belong to demons, didn\'t you?" Alex frowned for a moment. "I believe it was a demon\'s place previously," he said. "Why do you ask, senior?"
"I\'ve heard about that cave of yours. Every demon world has a similar cave like that. Every single one that the humans captured has such a realm."
"Oh?" Alex said, surprised. "Every demon realm?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He remembered what was at the center of the cave. The walls of the cave were covered in descriptive runes drawn all over it, meant to gather Yin at the center. There was a place that was meant to find someone.
A beacon should the fated one lay their hand over it.
The Moon Goddess.
\'So it wasn\'t just our world that had it,\' he thought. \'Every world with demons has it. Is… that the same for the Sun God too?\'
"I guess I can understand how you\'re used to suppressing Yin aura," Silvermist said. "It\'s a bit too strong still, almost as if you know Yin Dao."
"I do know Yin dao," Alex said. "I was forced to learn it within that cave I told you about."
"Ah!" Silvermist exclaimed. "That makes much more sense. Yin dao huh? That\'s not something men usually learn so easily. You are either very talented or have a body that works well with Yin. Good, good. You should be able to make it much further ahead then."
