Chapter 803 Onward To The Void.

A world god can freeze him and prevent him from resurrecting forever. Even an Origin god is not safe from a world god much less him. He is not a naive fool to think that the sage won't betray him when they meet. The sage doesn't even need to do it himself, he could have arranged for someone else to kill him after he leaves the plane. 

Anything can happen to him when he leaves the safety of the plane but he doesn't have an option. He has to go despite the fact that he dreads the meeting. He can't avoid meeting the first sage because the things he negotiated for can not be brought safely into the realm tree. 

They can be brought into the plane but they are contraband so they will be seized by mother high heaven. He can attempt it but he will regret bringing them into the realm tree. The fragments of a realm heart are incredibly dangerous and also powerful. The will of the realm won't allow them to be in the realm for any reason. To bring them here is to give them to her.

That means he must go up to the void to receive his reward. He could also send someone on his behalf but how is that person to prove that they are for him? They will need to know the law of order of the sage and use it to summon the sage. He doesn't know anyone apart from himself and Legion that has that knowledge. 

If he were foolish, then he will send another clone of Legion in his place. That will let the sage know that Soverick has shared the knowledge with others and the sage will become aware of the clone. That is a very bad idea.

So in summary, he has been checkmated. Even the basis of his Oath that the sage has to give him his things in a week won't save him. The sage can give them to him and also freeze him. His rewards are bait right now. He can choose to go or he can remain in the plane in relative safety. But no matter what, it won't stop the sage from scheming against him. 

"I have to go." He said to himself and other Legions. He warned them, "Prepare to lose me forever."

If the first sage is truly after him, then staying in the plane will not be completely safe for him either. And staying in the plane will invalidate his second death and all the stress he had to go through during the negotiation. He doesn't have a choice if he is to collect what he deserves from the sage. That is the way of the world. You don't get what you deserve. You get what your strength is enough to acquire. If you don't have enough strength, then prepare to die for biting more than you can chew.

"It may all be worth it at the end of the day." He said as he flew up into the sky.

He gathered his wits and encouraged himself. Then he began the dreaded trip to the void. He flew up into the sky as fast as he can. His speed reached 20 times the speed of sound so it took him less than an hour to reach the boundary of the plane in the sky. The distance between the ground surface and the boundary of the plane in the sky is usually less than 25,000 kilometers.

"Here goes nothing." He said as he breached the boundary of the plane. 

He didn't waste time at all. If one is to harm themselves or do something painful, it is better to do it as fast as possible. So that the ordeal will be over soon. He did the same here. He breached the barrier at the top of the plane as quickly as possible. It was like going through a film of force. Then he appeared within the void between planes. 

There is no divine plane attached to the Virut plane anymore so he was able to leave the plane without any issues or interference. The Virut plane looked like a large obscured bubble within a sea of nothingness. There are other large bubbles within this sea. Some of them have rings of light around them that can be seen from outside the realm tree. Planes with rings of light are planes with divine planes still attached to them.

He swam away through the sea of nothingness to the boundary of the realm. Only transcendents can move in this sea of nothingness. They have to use their solidified divine sense to grab the law matrix and pull themselves to move. There isn't matter in the space between planes but there is the law matrix. Any being that needs to breathe such as a Mana entity or below will suffocate here. Movement is the least of their troubles.

He continued to swim away from the bubbles of planes. There is nothing to see but unending darkness. There is no sound so it is completely quiet. It makes for a dreary journey. It didn't help his mood since he might just be going to his doom right now. But he continued. He doesn't know when the boundary of the realm ends but he knows that it will end. He kept swimming until he reached this boundary. 

He knew when he exited the boundary of the realm because his environment changed suddenly. He was surrounded by nothingness before but then he swam head-first into an ocean of void energy. The progress didn't uplift his emotions. Void energy made the nothingness feel better. He actually felt suffocated by the pressure around him.

Void energy is oppressive and corrosive. It isn't light like Origin energy. It is very heavy and powerful. He felt pressure from the weight of the energy around him. He had to create a barrier around himself to protect him from the corrosive properties but he couldn't stop from being pressured. It is like he is at the bottom of an ocean which he very well might be. The pressure is trying to break his barrier to get to him. Then it will eat away at his existence and kill him.
