Chapter 406 Space Worm
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yunfan led Nalan Xue and quickly flew off in the direction he had just pointed.
Chu Yunfan knew very well that the power of space would not increase for no reason.
The only explanation is the appearance of a treasure such as a spatial dimension.
However, to Chu Yunfan's surprise, the treasure did not appear, but a trap fell from the sky.
"What's happening here?"
Looking at the world before him, riddled with holes and resembling a honeycomb, Chu Yunfan's expression suddenly turned silent.
Because at this moment, Chu Yunfan and Nalan Xue are inside one of the "honeycombs".
The key point is that Chu Yunfan suddenly discovered that when he used spatial teleportation, he could no longer teleport long distances as before, but could only move within individual honeycomb spaces.
However, in Chu Yunfan's eyes, there were countless such "honeycombs".
At this moment, Chu Yunfan felt as if he had fallen into a huge maze.
Of course, this was Chu Yunfan's feeling.
Because these honeycomb spaces are formed by spatial forces, Nalan Xue cannot see them at all.
Nalan Xue only noticed that Chu Yunfan's speed of movement suddenly became extremely slow, like an ordinary person walking step by step.
Seeing the change in Chu Yunfan's expression, Nalan Xue immediately asked:
"What happened?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yunfan's reply rang out.
"The space ahead, for some reason, is not whole, but has been divided into countless smaller spaces!"
After saying that, Chu Yunfan suddenly remembered his previous experience in the void.
The void space there is also composed of countless fragmented areas.
However, that's because the space was too fragile and was attacked by external forces, causing the space to break into countless small areas.
But at this moment, Chu Yunfan could clearly feel that the space here was very stable, without even a single spatial rift, so how could it possibly shatter into countless small spaces?
Just as Chu Yunfan was wondering, Nalan Xue's voice suddenly came to his ears again.
"I can feel it, we are now inside a small space!"
Nalan Xue was able to sense it because, just now, she had used her teleportation technique to try and travel to a distant place.
As a result, an inexplicable force prevented her from teleporting, causing her teleportation to fail.
This only proves one thing.
That is, the place she wants to teleport to is not in the same space as her.
Because every space has spatial barriers.
Only in this way can a complete and enclosed space be formed.
The teleportation ability possessed by experts above the Martial King realm can only be completed within the same space, and cannot cross spatial barriers.
Therefore, Nalan Xue's gaze naturally fell back on Chu Yunfan.
Only the power of space can penetrate spatial barriers.
Sure enough, the next second, Chu Yunfan, holding Nalan Xue's hand, appeared in another small space in front of them.
Without hesitation, Chu Yunfan used his spatial teleportation technique to carry Nalan Xue forward.
Time passed without Chu Yunfan knowing how much time had gone by, and he also lost count of how many small spaces he had traversed.
Suddenly, Chu Yunfan stopped.
"Space cage!"
A low shout resounded in Chu Yunfan's heart.
What followed was a transparent spatial cage that appeared to Chu Yunfan's right front.
Immediately afterwards, a surprised exclamation came from Chu Yunfan's mouth.
Because the spatial cage he had just created now had an opening.
Chu Yunfan was surprised because the opening in the spatial cage had actually been bitten out!
It turned out that just now, when Chu Yunfan was about to continue using the space travel technique, he suddenly sensed an abnormal fluctuation of spatial power in the area to his right front.
Without saying a word, Chu Yunfan immediately cast a spatial cage, wanting to find out what was going on.
As a result, Chu Yunfan saw that a transparent insect, which looked like a silkworm, actually bit a hole in his spatial cage and escaped from it.
To be honest, this was the first time Chu Yunfan had ever seen an insect capable of directly crushing spatial power.
Such an insect must be extraordinary.
"Little thing, trying to escape!"
Following the direction the insect fled, Chu Yunfan used his spatial teleportation technique to begin tracking it.
Not long after, a small, transparent worm reappeared in Chu Yunfan's sight.
Of course, this time, Chu Yunfan did not use the Spatial Cage, but instead used the Space-Fixing Bead to freeze the space where the insect was located.
As a result, Chu Yunfan successfully caught the worm this time.
Subsequently, based on Chu Yunfan's observations...
He discovered that this insect contained no flesh or blood, but was composed entirely of spatial energy.
Of course, in addition to spatial power, Chu Yunfan also sensed traces of soul fluctuations in the brain regions of these insects.
The fact that it has a soul means that this insect is indeed a living creature.
Of course, this also means that Chu Yunfan was able to use the Soul Searching Technique to explore the insect's memories.
Although this worm's soul was extremely weak and could easily be destroyed by the power of the Soul Searching Technique, turning it to ashes.
However, given Chu Yunfan's current mastery of the soul, this problem is at least not difficult for him.
Soon, Chu Yunfan used the Soul Searching Technique to read the insect's memories.
And the insect's memory is as simple as its structure.
First of all, this worm is called the Space Worm. It feeds on spatial power by nature and grows by consuming spatial power.
Secondly, the countless small spaces that Chu Yunfan saw were created by the space worms gnawing at them.
Space worms are like those that eat up an apple, hollowing out the inside and creating tiny spaces.
Finally, a space worm, with its limited appetite, couldn't gnaw out so many small spaces.
The space worm in front of us is just one of countless space worms here.
Of course, besides these, Chu Yunfan also deduced another thing.
That is, the countless space worms here, if they didn't want to go hungry, would definitely still be diligently "eating" right now.
After all, insects depend on food for survival, and a dry-rice insect is a dry-rice soul.
For insects, creatures with simple limbs and simple minds, the natural thing is to eat as much as they can. If they can't kill them, they'll eat them to death; if they can't eat them all, they'll take them with them.
As a food enthusiast, Chu Yunfan naturally wouldn't object to eating rice.
But the key point is that once these space worms finish eating, it means that countless more small spaces will be formed.
In other words, what awaits Chu Yunfan is an endless journey through countless small spaces.
To change this situation, Chu Yunfan must make these space worms stop eating.
Therefore, Chu Yunfan's gaze naturally fell on the space worm in his hand.
As the saying goes, the one who tied the knot must untie it.
