"Ugh... The last time I used a Dimensional Pathway was six hundred thousand years ago. I used it to enter the Flame Dimension, a minor Dimension that was worse on the Dimensional Scale."
Davis frowned, "What's a Dimensional Scale?"
He'd been getting a lot of new words lately, causing him to look at Myria. She shook her head, indicating that she didn't know anything about it, which meant this should be some local term or occupational term.
"You know what- It would be way faster soul-scouring you than asking questions." Davis's expression darkened.
"No! Please, wait, wait! I'll explain everything. Please don't make me a retard."
The Six-Headed Hydra begged, making Davis blink because he was well-versed enough not to harm the soul while soul-scouring. Before he could explain, the Six-Headed Hydra already started.
"It's a term used by the Dimensional Hunters exclusively. They find Dimensions with special artifacts and rate the Dimensions according to various factors. It's from a scale of one to nine, one being the easiest and three being the hardest to traverse among pathways that lead to the Third Layer. Four being the easiest and six being the hardest to traverse among pathways that lead to the Second Layer. Seven being the easiest and ninth being the hardest to traverse among pathways that lead to the First Layer and beyond."
"This scale doesn't involve the Dimension itself but the path from the entry point to the exit point charted by the Dimensional Hunters. Once they're done charting, they'd grade it accordingly and sell the information for a high price, making a killing out of it. It's not easy to obtain. The Fire Dimension Pathway leading from the Exalted Tiger Greater Realm's Second Layer to the Celestial Transcendent Galaxy's Third Layer was graded three on the Dimensional Scale. Therefore, it had been very difficult to traverse. It was the worst. Naturally, it has closed long ago. I had one ready over four thousand years ago, but it has also closed. Because they operate under the radar of the authorities of all the galaxies, it is not easy to reach them. Please let me go. I can take you to those hunters."
This time around, the Six-Headed Hydra endured the pain well and explained it in one go.
Davis raised his brows.
The hydra he had in his hand was really a scum, but he got to admit that they were highly impervious to poison.
Evelynn's hex poison was no joke, yet the Six-Headed Hydra could endure it quite well. It had been a day since he was poisoned in the soul directly, and he hadn't died yet, still enduring the immense pain stemming from the corrosive nature of the hex poison.
Evelynn herself said that she didn't hold back the poison from affecting him because she said he had said something he shouldn't have and deserved a thousand deaths. She wanted him to suffer a lot before allowing him to die.
Davis had no idea what he said, but he knew it should be along the lines of provocation stemming from humiliating her or him.
In that case, he really didn't have any misgivings of making him a retard, but he was too useful to be discarded like that.
"What he's saying should be the truth. His spatial ring and life contain a lot of Empyrean Grade resources that haven't been seen before. I could analyze their characteristics and be able to garner their properties, but it's going to take some time unless the other galaxies researched them already, and he has a note on what they arc.
Myria commented.
She didn't think other galaxies had worthy alchemists for them to be analyzing ingredients. Most of them should be magical beasts and spirits. They would just eat it. and be done with it.
It made Davis nod. He didn't think the hydra was lying either. His Heart Intent hadn't picked up any lies so far, not a single one. The other party did not dare lic.
Nonetheless, with the existence of these Dimensional Hunters, he guessed he could have his family run to other galaxies if shit hit the fans.
Obviously, these pathways were time-limited, and they could be trapped if they couldn't make it to the exit before it closed. These were dangerous pathways that couldn't be taken lightly, and their divergence could more or less make it treacherous for them to cross these paths.
This really made him intrigued, wondering what Dimensions could be like. Unfortunately, he was stuck in the Whispering Wildlands Lower Realm at the moment. "Currently, who are all warring with the Celestial Transcendent Galaxy?"
"I'm not sure, but it should be the Nine-Headed Hydra Galaxy, Exalted Tiger Galaxy, True Dragon Galaxy, and a galaxy that is ruled by the spirits."
Davis's heart shook as he heard those names.
Exalted Tiger...
Most importantly... True Dragon.
That name itself invoked deep respect from within him. Moreover, it was intensely arrogant, as though no other dragon wasn't a dragon in front of it.
"The Azure Dragon itself has an incredibly tough scale and thick skin... I can only imagine what a True Dragon would be like...'
He wondered if it was a Grand Ancestral Magical Beast or a Paragon Magical Beast. He felt like it should be the former, considering the Nine-Headed Hydra Galaxy was named after the Nine-Headed Hydra and not the Paragon Magical Beast, which was called the Nine-Headed Titanic Hydra.
He was told that it was absolutely massive, blotting out a star.
His brain trembled when he first heard it from Evelynn.
Nonetheless, more than anything, he wondered if it would be comparable to his current chaos-destruction body. He had confidence he would win if he faced a young True Dragon regardless.
Still, Davis now understood what kind of threat the human race was facing.
Taking on four galaxies at once, he could only imagine what kind of bloodshed there was right now while he was in this mortal layer, going to chill.
'Well... the more the Celestial Transcendent is busy, the more time I have to grow...'
Davis decided to take advantage of the situation.
While still waiting for Stella, Davis asked more questions to the trembling Six-Headed Hydra soul.
He got the name of the other galaxy, the Divine Phoenix Galaxy, some major power names and powerful character names, broadening his horizons.
Soon, Stella appeared with Andiron and Yufella in tow. His sworn brother was
required for karmic shielding. With Tia, the two of them proved to be impeccable when it comes to shielding from being divined. Although they didn't know if it would work on such a treasure, it was better than nothing.
As for Yufella, she was great with hiding individuals rather than treasures.
They then left the Whispering Wildlands Lower Realm, heading to the vast space while he stayed back.
Turning to look to the side, he saw Empress Hexena Xylusc and Katherine.
"Seems like I have to build trust first-"
Empress Hexena raised her arm near her mouth and giggled, her melodious laughter echoing around Davis.
He cupped his hands, "Don't take offense, Empress Hexena. This treasure needs to be kept in a hidden location, so the less people know, the better it is for us. Besides, I'm-"
