Master of Strange Dao

"Or just bring it all back home if it's too strong to beat."

Yu Ziqing was daydreaming about this wonderful idea while Cece chuckled beside him.

Such beautiful thoughts.

Let alone other things, at the very least, that entrance, what it takes away, is something you can forget about completely.

Once the Eight-direction Sand Sea Array has been fully digested by the Despair Abyss, that entrance becomes a flaw, either getting digested and swallowed up or severed from its connection with the Eight-direction Sand Sea Array forcibly.

The Despair Abyss is extremely domineering; it wouldn't tolerate the existence of such a thing.

If it could completely devour the Eight-direction Sand Sea Array that's been integrated into a blessed land, the Despair Abyss would not take a single step back and would choose to merge it instead.

That cliff Abyss based on the Despair Abyss can actually be considered a second realm.

With Cece's power, controlling the Despair Abyss was already a stretch, all relying on a big shot forcibly helping her refine and control it, turning it into her ability.

To control the Despair Abyss to the point of doing whatever one wants is now out of the question.

The only reason that entrance is still there is purely because the Despair Abyss hasn't finished merging completely.

"Young master, this lovely thought of yours might be hopeless. Once the merger is complete, that entrance will disappear," Cece said.

"There's not much to do here anymore; you go back and ask Yang for help to think of a way. If the Despair Abyss could take a step back, taking another step back isn't impossible either."

Even if one can't carry around a Town Teleportation Gate, setting up a fixed home teleportation portal thousands of miles from the Imperial City of Dali is still acceptable.

The fact that it can be used repeatedly already trumps the Void Escape Scroll.

Yu Ziqing wouldn't give up so easily.

"If Yang can't find a way before the Despair Abyss finishes digesting, then it's not a big deal. I'll think of a solution later, we'll make an array similar to the Eight-direction Sand Sea Array ourselves, and try again. There will always be a chance," Yu Ziqing said.

Yu Ziqing had thought of similar things years ago when he first started using the Abyss as a shortcut to save substantial amounts of time and distance.

Previously, Yu Ziqing had asked Yang if there was something like a Teleportation Gate or Teleportation Array, it would be best to set one up at home and carry an Array Plate with him, so he could immediately flee home if something happened.

Yang looked at Yu Ziqing as if looking at a fool, a memory still clear in Yu Ziqing's mind.

Yang told him that something similar was the Void Escape Scroll.

The difficulty of making the Void Escape Scroll is extremely high, taking some Ninth Tier Strong with a specialization in this field a year to make just a few, without even ensuring a high success rate.

Even with a Void Escape Scroll, one can only vaguely choose a general direction; there's no way to control the specific location.

And this is already quite impressive.

The ability to cross over space itself requires tremendously strong power and tremendous skill. The numerous conditions needed can't afford a single weak link.

To let the weak possess this power, the creation of the Void Escape Scroll is something the Langya Institute takes great pride in.

As for something like a Teleportation Array, well, it does exist.

But there is no long-distance, especially stable Teleportation Array. There never has been.

Daqian has established a Teleportation Array between the Imperial City and the Langya Institute for transmitting small objects like Jade Scrolls.

However, that was only experimental. For important messages or valuable items, they wouldn't dare use it,

because any form of spatial teleportation carries a risk of failure.

If it's just objects, they might just be lost, but for people, they would be gone for good: either turned to dust or lost in the Void, waiting to die there.

Even if it's just objects, if it's intelligence, it could potentially fall out in other places after being lost.

This has happened before, hence why Daqian dispatches important information and correspondence more frequently using Kun You or human couriers.

What Yu Ziqing wants is not even worth considering.

Even if it truly exists and can be constructed, the resources required are such that only wealthy powers like the Three Divine Dynasties could afford them.

Even without considering the exorbitant expenses of setting up the array, just using it would be something Yu Ziqing couldn't afford. Tearing open space and then constructing a stable and safe channel linking the two teleporting arrays, the cost doubles with every doubling of distance.

Even just a single long-distance teleportation of tens of thousands of miles would require so much power that it would bankrupt Yu Ziqing hundreds of times over.

Like Dali with its Posthouse Officials and Daqian with its Kun You, they're fast, cost-effective, and safe. Why would they use anything else and gamble the wealth of the Divine Dynasty on researching teleportation arrays?

Besides, top-notch experts don't need teleportation arrays at all.

They can break through space themselves and travel through the Void with safety. Why should they entrust their safety to a big array?

After that, Yu Ziqing learned more and more and dared not ask any more questions.

However, he'd always been thinking about the Town Teleportation Gate.

Just getting a glimpse of hope, how could he give up?

If not this time, it gave him an indication of a path; he would continue trying and eventually create this device.

One must have many methods; just having the Void Escape Scroll and Broken Tile isn't enough, especially since the Void Escape Scroll has been around for a while and is very well-known, with many figured out countermeasures.
