"Everyone is going?"
"Just me alone."
The elder opened his eyes, took a good look at Dugu Qianye, then closed them again.
"So young, yet so strong, you must have had some extraordinary opportunities. Passing at the Phantom Venerable Peak, barely made it," the elder remarked, "The space portal does not allow the carrying of any spatial objects, your Space Ring will be crushed in the passage. Once you arrive at another plane, you will be randomly transported to a location. Going to another dimension..."
Dugu Qianye listened carefully to the elder's words, taking note of some of the precautions he mentioned. He hadn't expected the old man to be so efficient in appearance, yet ramble on like an old gossip. After laboring through half an hour of prattle, the elder finally formed a seal with both hands, creating a gateway of water ripples in the Cangmang Mountain.
To Dugu Qianye's surprise, the elder's sealing technique was an ancient one.
"Go ahead," said the elder to Dugu Qianye.
