Chapter 971: Chapter 971: Virtual or Real?

Lin Shen used the Divine Travel Vast Void device to enter the Great Void world and discovered that this place indeed bore no difference from the real world.

When he entered the Divine Travel Vast Void device, it felt like he had gone through a teleportation and arrived at this magical place, and everything about him remained unchanged, making Lin Shen find it hard to believe that this world wasn’t really existing.

“This definitely isn’t any virtual world.” Lin Shen checked himself for a moment and found that all his belongings had been brought along without missing anything.

To be virtual, at least data is needed to make it virtual, how could things be virtually recreated the same without any data?

It’s normal for other things to be virtually created through the Divine Travel Vast Void device, but it was unusual that one thing also entered the Great Void world with him.

Strictly speaking, it wasn’t just one thing, but rather a type of pet, not just one pet, but two.

Those were Xiaoye and Xiaona, the two pets that Lin Shen had always been afraid to reveal.

When he acquired them, the message left in the box clearly stated that taking the items inside the box meant making enemies with the whole world.

Thus, Lin Shen had always been afraid to let Xiaoye and Xiaona out, even more afraid to let anyone discover their presence.

This time entering the Great Void world, Xiaoye and Xiaona were also replicated along with him.

If the Divine Travel Vast Void device could scan the data of Xiaoye and Xiaona, it would be normal to replicate them too.

However, now their attributes here were still displayed as ???.

That is to say, the Divine Travel Vast Void device hadn’t managed to scan their data, so how were they virtually created?

The only conclusion Lin Shen could come to was that the Great Void wasn’t a virtual world at all, but a real place, and he wasn’t just there through his mind, but his body had been transported.

Lin Shen surveyed his surroundings while contemplating, discovering this place was a not-so-large island, surrounded by an endless ocean.

Aside from some plants, there was nothing else on the island.

Lin Shen frowned; he had read the instructions of the Divine Travel Vast Void device before entering, and theoretically, after entering the Great Void world, he should appear in some random city.

Upper Divine Beings, Middle Divine Beings, and Lower Divine Beings, would be randomly assigned to different cities.

There is no concept of planets within the Great Void; the entire Great Void world only consists of one continent, and everyone entering the Great Void world is on this continent.

It’s just that no one knows how large this continent stretches, and no one has reached the end of the continent.

Different levels of Divine Beings are separated because outside the cities there are a large number of Deformed Species appearing, which even attack the Divine Beings within the cities, massacres also have happened frequently.

If a Lower Divine Being appears in an area filled with Upper Deformed Species, other than facing death, there isn’t much else they could do.

Lin Shen originally thought he would be assigned to a city of Lower Divine Beings, as his strength had already reached that level.

However, there wasn’t just no city here, there wasn’t even a single person.

Lin Shen soared into the sky, wanting to figure out exactly what place this was; he speculated that this might be some oceanic area on the continent.

Because the Great Void world’s continent is almost endless, the ocean is more like a pool within the continent.

Lin Shen kept soaring higher into the sky, the land shrinking in his eyes continuously, soon the small island became unseeable to his eyes.

Even from such a high position, he hadn’t seen the end of the ocean; all that was visible was still the ocean, with no continent in sight.

Lin Shen could only keep ascending higher and higher, until the ocean under his feet was as vast as the Star River, yet what he could see was still just the ocean, without any trace of land.

“Something’s wrong, I’ve never heard of such a vast ocean within the Great Void world, nor have I heard of anyone entering the Great Void world and appearing in such a place, what exactly is going on?” Lin Shen was very uncertain in his heart.

Lin Shen, fearing he would get lost in this boundless ocean, could only descend vertically along the same route he flew up, and after a long time, he returned to the Isolated Island.

He had looked in the sky for so long, not finding the continent, not even discovering a second island.

Lin Shen’s heart was full of doubts; this place and the Great Void world he understood from the information seemed really quite different.

While pondering, Lin Shen chose to exit the Great Void world, his consciousness returning to the Divine Travel Vast Void chamber.

He examined the Divine Travel Vast Void chamber again, and found no problems; the equipment was all normal, and his operation had been correct.

After checking some online materials, Lin Shen confirmed his operations did not have any issues and were unlikely to be wrong.

The problem is no matter how he searched, he couldn’t find any mention of such a vast ocean within the Great Void world.

Lin Shen re-entered the Divine Travel Vast Void chamber, wanting to try and see if he would be sent to a normal city again.

But after the sensation of teleportation disappeared, he reappeared on the Isolated Island.

“What is going on?” Lin Shen could only explore the Isolated Island first, to see if he could discover anything.

The Isolated Island wasn’t large; it didn’t take much time to circle around once, Lin Shen quickly examined the whole island, and then in disbelief, he discovered that there was a Dark Bird Temple on this island.

This Dark Bird Temple was somewhat different from the standard Dark Bird Temples; instead of being a temple, it was more like a cave, only with the words Dark Bird Temple carved above the cave entrance.

Lin Shen entered the Dark Bird Temple, finding the objects inside were rather crude and primitive, but the layout and various items were very similar to those in the Dark Bird Temples within the Ancient Realm, just looking more primitive and simple.

Lin Shen attempted to use the Dark Bird Temple the way it was intended, and he found that it actually worked.

He used the Dark Bird Temple in the Great Void world to enter the Commerce Star, then saw the familiar trading area and various leaderboards.

“This isn’t right… how could this be…” Lin Shen examined the trading area, merchandise area, and various leaderboards closely, his eyes gradually widening, feeling more and more incredulous.

In the leaderboards of Commerce Star, the names of Xiao Yu and Jiweis were still there, which was normal.

Besides these leaderboards, Lin Shen also saw another separate Celestial Court leaderboard area, containing various rankings, and all the names and items were unfamiliar to Lin Shen, probably those from the various leaderboards of the Six Great Star Regions.

“The leaderboards of the Ancient Realm and the Great Void world actually all appear in Commerce Star, what exactly is going on?” Lin Shen tried asking the Spirit of Commerce Star, but the Spirit here did not respond to his questions, only mechanically executing commands.
