Chapter 2565: 2565. Small Plane
More chaotic manas was not what Walker wanted to be sensing or handling right now. He knew that they would cause a lot of damage to the world if he let it. He also understood that they would be the greatest draw on his mind and body.
But he had sensed it and knew where the remainder of the bridges were. The bridge he was nearing was influenced by chaotic mana in different way than the others which made him wonder why.
Moving using his understanding of space mana and also utilizing wind mana to fly faster was allowing Walker to move through the sky much faster than what others could do. It was why he easily change location and saw the changes in the terrain. The more mountainous area he moved in to was partially familiar since he had been nearby before. However, there were changes.
The world had changed and Walker would not be able to explore all of it easily. He could sense the manas and look at maps all he wanted but being able to travel to every single place in the world would take way too long. Especially with the fact that he had other tasks to handle right now.
The bridge to the elemental planes that he found was flat on a cliff wall. It would be a challenge for anyone or anything to get inside it. But he didn't notice any breaks in the space around. Meaning that the source of the chaotic mana wasn't coming from another spot and mixing with whatever manas left the bridge. Instead, it was mixed in already.
This meant that the chaotic mana was coming from the bridge itself. Walker wasn't even sure how this was possible since the bridge should have been its own thing. It should not be able to take and move chaotic manas through them. Not to mention that the time that he had managed to see a break in space bringing over chaotic mana, Walker had seen that it could not operate like a bridge at all due to the imbalance nature of chaotic mana.
"Only one way to do it…" Walker sighed loudly before pushing in to the bridge and using natural amna to calm the chaotic mana to some degree. It was enough to protect him without too much damage to his body and also stopped him from feeling any break in his own internal mana flow.
Just a few steps in to the bridge Walker found himself looking at things he shouldn't have looked at.
The dark empty space moving from where he stood was staggering. There was even more mana smashing in to one another. The sudden creation of mixed mana sin to bonded manas before then shattering apart and splitting was what he knew of and expected of the chaotic place between the world and the elemental planes.
What Walker had not seen was the grand depth of it. He had seen a glimpse in comparison to this seemingly endless nothing full of chaos. This was what the born origin beings traveling out in to. This was what they delved in to so that they could discover the new elemental planes and bring them closer.
He couldn't even describe the feelings he had seeing this in the way he was. He could sense that the bridge to the elemental plane was not entirely broken. Like the smallest of threads there was space mana which was holding on. But it was being eaten away, bombarded by the chaotic manas here. It was being completely severed and allowing chaotic mana to take full control over the manas that flowed in to the world.
On the other side, there were surely chaotic manas moving in to the elemental plane on the other side. Walker couldn't even tell which elemental plane that was though. He had no way of sensing the mana that were calmer compared to those that were more chaotic now.
This was not a simple elemental plane that has put stress on space mana. It wasn't a being trying to get to the world because it sensed the denser and calmer manas it needed to grow. Instead, this was chaotic manas that crashd in to the bridge and found a way to flow elsewhere. That was what manas like this did, they flowed and crashed and made their way wherever they could.
The world and the elemental planes were perfect for it. The chaotic mana could go there and keep pushing through. If Walker was not able to handle this issue, then there would be much worse problems.
Whatever the real cause of this though, Walker had to pull at those small and delicate threads of space mana. He had to bring them together and strengthen them so that he could make the bridge proper again. After that he would look at how it would be improved then finish the few remaining bridges.
Right this second, he felt a snap in his gut. He hasn't been focusing on it but he felt the space twisting even more as a larger crash of chaotic mana rushed nearby. It put too much pressure on the space and with all his might, Walker was forced to begin stitching the space back together.
He used natural mana and felt Fleur waking up again. She was bringing natural mana towards them in a surge. Enough to smother that chaotic mana and protect Walker even more. Most of all though, she was helping him guide it in to a tube, a protective shell for Walker to bring the space mana he could manipulate.
In small bits and pieces he felt it tear away from his control and be taken in to form with the rest of the remaining bridge to the elemental planes. It was able to snap in to place there since that was the natural order it should be in. Walker was able to manipulate and alter it, but he was not able to completely halt the natural way of things. It was an interesting note for him later that he would find himself struggling if he were to try and force himself to change more about the bridges that were not meant to be.
It made him wonder for an instant whether the will of the world or the will of creation or whatever existence was could do more than just send quests or offer insights and ideas.
As Walker felt more chaotic mana crackle in temporary lighting mana, he watched as a small bubble formed in to something else. His eyes captured every instant before the small bubble began to drift away. With an extra little bit of space mana, he managed to grab it and pull it toward him.
The bridge was repaired with the space and natural mana he provided and allowing some life and death mana in to the mix it repaired even faster. It was as if Walker had given it a potion, but for the bridge the potion was his mana.
The small bubble he had seen wasn't water, it was something made of manas. A dense small bubble fo what Walker could call a more bestial form of light mana. There was also a little droplet of what looked to him like life mana.
This was the start of an elemental plane. It could be destroyed and broken up by the chaotic manas or it could grow as the right manas hit it and allowed it to grow. From this there could be new monsters, herbs, and even lands created. It was the very beginning of what he had touched and even added to the world himself.
The shocking fact that he had witnessed it from was enough to understand that even amongst chaos, order could exist. Two different concepts but both were instrumental in the creation of what he knew. In literally everything that he knew that had played some part.
Imagining this all as the source of what he had always known was heavier than what he would have imagined. But having this tiny seed of an elemental plane in his hand caused his breathing to slow and his mind to clear.
He was feeling the weight of potential life and potential evolution. All the potential of what could be and what might never be. He wondered so much and he believes in so much more now. He shouldn't toy with it, though. The other origin beings would bring it elsewhere to develop safely.
They would add other elemental aliens as needed and let them grow until they could balance and join the greater whole that was being built. Was he able to do that? Should he be allowed to do such things?
This needed a lot of consideration.
