Volume 7 Mortals and Gods Chapter 763 Dilemma (Part 1)
Iros and Themis are now hundreds of millions or even tens of billions of kilometers away from the eternal battlefield.
Generally, when you arrive in this area, you can vaguely sense some new or weak planes hidden in the darkness.
They are the places that ordinary explorers want to explore, and this place is already quite dangerous for ordinary legendary powerhouses, and they may perish if they are not careful.
Only demigods can carry out exploration activities.

After entering this area, Iros's advantages became more obvious.
The strong body gives Iros strong defensive capabilities, and in terms of external protection, as a devil, Iros has many more powerful methods than the warriors.
Iros now has several more layers of protection than others, so he is naturally extremely safe. Moreover, Iros possesses the power of both order and chaos, so he can handle any situation he encounters in the void with ease.
In some dangerous areas, a strong person like Themis can only take a detour, but Iros can lead her through.
In this way, Iros advances in the virtual space much faster than Themis.
The two of them moved forward at full speed, occasionally encountering strong men from other races and other main planes along the way. Apart from killing a legendary strong man from an unknown race, Ilos paid no attention to the others.
As long as these guys are not stupid enough to provoke themselves, it will be fine. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, both Iros and Themis emit a breath, which can clearly tell others their power level.
Like Themis, who is only at the peak of legend, Iros is a real demigod, and no one would come to provoke such a terrifying existence.
In the void, Iros's figure flickers on and off. Every time it flickers, it will be thousands of kilometers away, and suddenly it is gone.
When they are tired, they will return to the demiplane to rest.

When exploring the void, the power is powerful and the consumption is terrible. Themis needs to frequently go to the demiplane of Ilos to recover her physical strength.
But Iros consumed even more than her, but Iros's body recovered faster than Themis.
On the other hand, Iros also discovered that fields and talents also have a certain dependence on the body.
As his body became stronger, it became significantly easier to improve his field and talent.
So Iros often hesitates whether to make his body huge.
The benefits of growing in size are obvious. Some minor inconveniences can be ignored compared to the benefits.
However, the need in this regard is not very urgent now. What is really urgent is to return to the main plane.
In the demiplane, Iros slowly let go of his body's protection, allowing the purest attributeless energy in the void to enter his body, gradually transforming his body tissue.
Under the wash of void energy, Iros could feel changes taking place in the tiniest cells of his own flesh and blood, with extremely tiny crystals appearing inside, and some cells even gradually began to crystallize.
But during the crystallization process of each cell, all the true names of Iros will release an extremely fine divine rune, imprinted on the inside of this cell.
Therefore, this kind of crystallization is different from losing life. Iros can still feel his control over every part, even the completely crystallized cells.
The blood in his body is constantly flowing, and every time it flows, some of the crystals in the cells will be taken away and transported to other parts for storage, or directly used to transform the body structure.
In this process, Iros's body is constantly getting closer to elementalization, but it is not equivalent to complete elementalization.
His physical strength slowly increased again, and his strength also continued to grow, and the growth rate far exceeded the level of normal cultivation.
This process can be said to be quite risky, and the key lies in the power of his real name.
If the true name hadn't imbued every tiny part with the imprint of life, then this kind of crystallization would really be crystallization, and it would directly wash away Iros's flesh and blood into pieces of magic crystal.
Iros silently calculated the time. Before arriving at the eternal vortex, he should be able to use this quick method to increase his power to the primary level of demigod. Only in this way can he have greater confidence in taking Themis in the eternal vortex.
Survive.
After a while, Iros felt the call from Themis and knew that she had finished her rest.
So he returned to his own demiplane, activated the teleportation magic circle, took Themis back to the place where the coordinates were originally set, and then continued to move in the direction of the eternal vortex.
In this way, day and night, one day, Themis suddenly asked: "Are we not far from the eternal vortex?"
"It's still half a day's journey."
Iros nodded silently and reviewed the action plan several times in his mind. After realizing that there were no loopholes, he took Themis to the end of the trip, one of the most dangerous places in the known void.
The eternal vortex flies away.
Half a day later, Iros and Themis arrived at the predetermined location. Only when he saw the eternal whirlpool with his own eyes did Iros truly feel the greatness and wonder of the world.
This is a place where order and chaos intersect, and an extremely huge vortex occupies the entire field of vision.
Its diameter alone may be measured in hundreds of millions of kilometers. Even if Iros teleports with all its strength, it may take several years to fly out of its range.
In front of him, the purple mist representing the power of chaos was intertwined with the bright star crystals representing order, slowly rotating around the center, looking like a concrete and tiny huge galaxy.
When order and chaos collide, blazing flames occasionally result.
That is by no means a flame in the ordinary sense. It is said that no life can survive in this flame whose limit is said to reach millions of degrees.
Even if the gods get close, they will be turned into nothingness immediately, not even ashes will be left.
After this period of travel, Iros has learned that in the void, any brilliant color means terrible danger, so the more beautiful the scene, the more careful it must be avoided.

Iros said to Themis: "How should we get in? We can't just fly there like this? I'm afraid we won't be able to get there in ten years."
"of course not!"
Themis said simply, she volleyed forward a little, and shot out several purple regular lines from her fingertips, which extended to a very far place in an instant. Then there was a flash of purple light, and a small stone appeared.
tower!
"There are many natural transmission points here, which can save us a lot of energy. Look, there is one over there."
Iros once again marveled at the magic of creation, and took Themis to the stone platform through more than ten teleportations.
The stone platform is not big, only about a few hundred square meters. Above the stone platform, there is a group of dark purple light mist that is slowly rotating.
This is a natural space passage, but I don’t know where it leads.
The stone platform has traces of artificial construction, and there is a simple copper brazier at each corner. Three braziers represent space, and one represents time.
The brazier uses magic crystal as the burning medium. When someone lights these four braziers, a complete set of time coordinates is formed, which can guide explorers to this location in a certain range of void.
"Has anyone been here?" Iros asked solemnly, inspecting the four braziers.

Themis shot out several purple light strips from her hands and began to busy stabilizing the natural passage while saying:
"The more dangerous the place, the greater the opportunity. Every decade, there will be some fools who want to come here to find opportunities. These fires of time and space are prepared for those legendary fools.
This is a place where demigods are in great danger of falling. Most of those wastes that are just legends will die every time they come.
However, it is said that this place can lead to the dark side of the world, so theoretically, you can reach any plane you want to go to."
Themis just talked like that, while Iros listened quietly.
Gradually, a magnificent picture unfolded in front of him.
In the past thousands of years, generations of strong men have continued to explore the eternal vortex.
They come from different races and different planes, but they have the same goal of exploring the unknown and finding the ultimate meaning of existence.
Most of them are legends and have no ability to teleport thousands of kilometers at a time like Iros.
Moreover, for the legends, there were too many factors that could threaten their lives. They moved forward cautiously and continued to deepen, sometimes taking hundreds of years to go back and forth.

With the discovery of these natural transmission points, they found shortcuts.
But these natural transmission channels are not necessarily shortcuts, and sometimes they can be fatal traps.
Exploring the direction of each natural teleportation point also requires strong people to pile up their lives and flesh and blood.
The person who first found the natural teleportation point was a demigod-level powerhouse from the plane of Ahn'Qiraj. He did not hide his discovery, but made its coordinates public and built a time beacon next to it that could guide the direction.
This demigod-level powerhouse finally chose to explore the center of the eternal vortex, and there has been no news from him since.
Since then, natural teleportation points have been discovered one after another. In order to commemorate this powerful man and to facilitate future generations, everyone who discovers a natural teleportation point will set up various types of time coordinates next to it.
In this way, generations of strong men worked step by step, gradually advancing towards the depths of the eternal whirlpool.
