A surge of unsettling aura could be felt coming from the location of the Atlantean City which was clearly from Yao Changying. It was pulsating, as if it were its own being. ~CLANG~CLANG~CLANG~
"Damn, this barrier is very strong." Ziran said after trying to break it. "Even with a lot of my power this shows no effect." "I'll try." Childe Wildfire said as he narrowed his eyes.
He raised his hand and pointed two fingers at the dark barrier. ~SHA~
A mont later a thin red beam shot out of it and struck the barrier. It was incredibly hot and one could feel a lot of fire elental immortal Qi condensed within it.
The fire beam continued to strike the dark barrier, but even with the Sixth Tribulation Stage Cultivation base of Childe Wildfire there was no effect. It was as if all his flas were rely being thrown into empty air.
"It doesn't work." Childe Wildfire frowned. "This isn't a normal barrier. Even a Peak Grade Immortal Tool won't have such defenses. Even if it wouldn't break, there would at least be so kind of reaction." He assessed.
"He's correct." Lady Kang replied. "The power of this barrier exceeds far more than should be possible." This prompted Lin Mu to take a closer look with his Immortal Sense but it didn't give him any result since the barrier simply resisted it. "It blocks immortal sense, it is also blocking any communication from going outside it." He quickly confird. "We won't be able to call for reinforcent here and neither will we be able to inform the others of the situation." His expression darkened.
"That makes things worse." Crown Prince Feng Shun said. "We might have been able to request help from Father or even the other Emperors since Yao Changying is here."
"I cannot contact the Saintess either." Lin Mu said much to his companions concern. 'This shouldn't be sothing that would be possible normally without a large scale array.' He thought to himself before realizing sothing.
"Wait… could it be?" Lin Mu closed his eyes for a mont and activated his Spatial Perception allowing him to glance at the dark barrier in another manner.
~SHUA~
Doing this showed him a different view.
Instead of a normal barrier that one might see against the background of the Spatial Fabric, what Lin Mu saw was just the Spatial Fabric!
"This isn't just a barrier… This is a Spatial Fold Barrier!" Lin Mu discovered.

"A Spatial Fold Barrier? Here!?" Ziran was stunned hearing it. "Aren't those only set up with complex arrays?" Crown Princess Shang rembered having learned about them in the Immortal Court.
"Indeed… They're used to protect the most important locations of the Immortal Court and other organizations that can afford to make them… but they aren't sothing that can be set up at a mont's notice." Lady Kang stated while trying different thods to communicate.
She had many tools on her but none of them worked just as they had thought.
A Spatial Fold Barrier was an advanced form of Spatial Skill application.
Just as its na said, it was made by folding space in itself, creating an impenetrable barrier. This was due to the fact that any attack that was launched on it wouldn't actually get through but rather just end up being absorbed by the Spatial Fabric itself.
The Spatial Fabric was one of the strongest things in existence and breaking it was very difficult for cultivators. Only for certain Spatial Cultivators would it be as easy as snapping fingers, for all others it needed a great amount of Qi to do so.
Even for Lin Mu it wasn't sothing that could be broken by him easily. Of course he wouldn't accept it right away and decided to attempt it first.
"ld." Lin Mu first tried the skill that could manipulate space the best. ~HUMM~
But much to his surprise the folded space simply refused to comply to his commands, as if it were a stubborn mule. 'If this doesn't work can I bypass it?' He wondered and tried using his other two skills that allowed him to move through Space.
"Blink!" Lin Mu tried teleporting but was stopped at the barrier. "Phase!" He then tried passing through it, but it didn't budge.
This left him with the final option, which was Fade.
~SHUA~
He disappeared from the world and appeared in the Parallel dinsion. And what he saw there left him stunned.
"What the hell is this?" Lin Mu looked at a completely different layout than he was used to.
Instead of appearing in an ever extending flat landscape, he was instead inside a sphere!
The place he was standing was curving upward and continued like this until it ca back.
"This is peculiar… Looks like we have another confirmation that the Parallel Dinsion of Fade mirrors the real world. Since the Space is folded outside, it is doing the sa here, turning the space into a hollow sphere." Xukong said after observing it all.
"Guess this is not an option to leave either." Lin Mu said as he let out a sign. "How will we overco this?" "There's two options." Xukong answered. "From what I can tell, this Spatial Fold Barrier is definitely being done through a Celestial Level tool. It is quite likely to be the Bridge Plane, so you will have to simply stop its operator." He gave the first option.
"I had guessed that much, but didn't think Yao Changying's control over it would be this good now." Lin Mu was surprised. "She has been improving it all this ti."
"Indeed. Though it is not absolute." Xukong replied. "The second option is the more rough one… You simply target the barrier until it cannot take it." He added.
"But it's been absorbing all attacks." Lin Mu was confused by it.
"It is for now. But there is a limit to it. The Spatial Fabric will naturally want to return to its 'resting' state, just like how rubber would do when being stretched." Xukong explained.
