Walker Of The Worlds

Hearing a new term had once again sparked Lin Mu's curiosity as he wondered what it meant. Lin Mu waited patiently for senior Xukong to explain it to him.

"In a simplified manner, an invader is basically a being that enters a world that it's not allowed to. It does so to gain control of that world or to obtain its resources.

You see, most worlds have an innate barrier present in them. There are created and operated by that world's will." Xukong spoke.

"World's will? Senior, you mean each world is alive?" Lin Mu questioned while tilting his head.

"Not exactly. While it may or may not have had life on its surface, every world can have a certain level of sentience. Not all worlds have it, though. Some worlds are simply too young to have developed it, while others lose it due to dying or being destroyed."

"Every world slowly gains its consciousness and also starts to generate spirit qi. You could even say that spirit qi is formed when a world gains sentience or a world becomes sentient when spirit qi comes into existence. It can be either of those reasons." Xukong answered.

Lin Mu felt intrigued upon hearing this new information. It had actually solved an important question that he had, but had never asked. The question was about the existence of spirit qi and how it came into being. Xukong's words had answered a part of that question.

While Lin Mu now knew that spirit qi was created by a world, he didn't know how other energies or types of qi came into being. For example, he didn't know how spatial qi came into being or how it was created.

While he wanted to ask further about this, he knew that now was not the time for it as there were other things at hand.

"So about this 'Invader' if it's restricted by the barrier, how does it still enter the world?" Lin Mu questioned.

"An invader can use various methods to enter a world. The most common method is to find a flaw in the world's barrier and enter through there. Another is to find a gate from which it can enter, this can be in the form of a teleportation formation or a spatial portal.

From the way that the black smoke disappeared, I can tell that it came through the second manner. The creature, whatever it may be, is a powerful being and knows how to manipulate space. The Invader here is actually not its real body but perhaps an avatar." Xukong answered.

Senior Xukong's mention of the avatar instantly reminded Lin Mu of his real body and how he had created a smaller avatar to accompany Lin Mu.
