As the space airship approached the rift, Duke finally realized how massive this rift was.

From a distance, he had just perceived it as a wound.

But once Duke looked outside through the window of the space airship, he discovered that the width of the rift was at least ten thousand kilometers.

When the space airship passed through the rift, Duke saw the edges of the rift in the distance shimmering with purple-red light, feeling a particularly strange sensation.

After the space airship crossed the rift, it was as if they had entered the interior of the Beastman Plane.

Duke instantly felt uncomfortable, as if a set of shackles had been put on his entire body, feeling especially heavy.

He also found that the flow of magic power became somewhat obscure, far less smooth and free as before.

Merrick also felt this way, but he clearly knew the reason: "This is normal, it's the suppression of the planar will of the Beastman Plane on outsiders like us…"

Listening to his explanation, Duke learned that this was a very common phenomenon in the Endless Plane.

Any life form not from the native plane would be suppressed by the planar will, preventing them from fully exerting their inherent strength.

Although this suppression wouldn't directly lower one's level, it would constantly limit them.

Native beings of the plane naturally wouldn't be affected, which was an advantage in territorial combat.

This was Duke's first time entering another plane; he had never had such an experience before.

His current spiritual power was 37.8, but he felt that the magic he was now able to cast barely equaled the strength of spiritual power between 32 and 34, decreasing by a full four or five points.

Duke also learned that planar will was something possessed by every plane.

Planes like the Beastman Plane, being a low plane, had a planar will that had not yet awakened, still in a hazy state.

Only when something particularly significant happened within the plane, or by taking certain special means, could the planar will be temporarily awakened.

The planar will would select some individuals to become the Children of the Plane, who would possess extremely high talent and good luck, often encountering various fortuitous events.

These fortuitous encounters were actually arrangements by the planar will in the dark, aiming to help these individuals grow rapidly.

The planar will did this actually to let the plane develop faster and advance quickly to a higher level plane.

For example, for a low plane like the Beastman Plane to advance to a Middle Plane, a Level 4 Life would need to emerge.

Only with the appearance of Level 4 Life can the progression of the entire plane be driven.

This is one of the reasons the planar will cultivates the Children of the Plane.

As the space airship moved forward, the planet of the Beastman Plane became gradually larger within view.

It was a blue planet, with only three continents, and everything else was blue ocean.

When the space airship passed through the atmosphere, the friction between the airship's surface and the atmosphere generated intense heat, emitting numerous sparks.

However, this had no impact on the space airship; with the material strength of the space airship, such an ordinary atmosphere couldn't leave any traces on its surface.

The space airship stopped in the wilderness outside Moon Shadow City, and as Duke and his team disembarked and took a breath, they felt somewhat uncomfortable.

The air composition of the Beastman Plane was different from that of the Wizard Plane, and newcomers like Duke often needed a period of adaptation before their lungs felt better.

When Duke stepped off the airship and onto the wilderness ground, he felt quite peculiar since it was his first time setting foot on the ground of another plane.

The battle outside Moon Shadow City had long been over, but Duke could still discern from the surrounding traces that a fierce battle had occurred here recently.

The ground around was covered with various craters created by explosions, and many places still held remnants of blood, faintly visible.

The Moon Shadow City ahead still stood tall, but there wasn't a single trace of beastmen on the city walls, and the city gates had been replaced with ordinary wooden doors.

Three military corps encamped around Moon Shadow City, with the Fifth Corps of the Third Regiment being one of them.

They were not responsible for seizing territories but were to stay and guard this area, and also carry out more detailed reconnaissance and extraction of resources in the region.

Where Duke and his team stayed was within Moon Shadow City; only Wizards were qualified to reside in the city, while slave creatures could only live in the surrounding wilderness.

The living condition here was much better than in the Space Fortress, at least it wasn't as cramped and stifling.

When Duke arrived below Moon Shadow City's walls, he clearly saw various battle traces spread across the city walls.

The traces were very fresh, and one could imagine the war scene simply through them.

The style of the buildings inside the city was quite peculiar, rough and simple, without excessive complex designs.

Most buildings were constructed with a mix of wood and stone, and many houses still bore traces of having been burnt, although from the traces, they appeared to have been extinguished quickly.

Slave creatures hadn't massively vandalized here, after all, their task was to occupy rather than destroy.

Duke accidentally stepped on something, and upon looking down, it was a flag with an image of a beastman embroidered on it.

But the flag now was filthy, smeared with numerous footprints, and bore traces of having been soaked by rainwater.

Duke and his team were to rest here for a night and were scheduled to investigate nearby mines the next day.

He was allocated a small cabin and a small yard; it seemed that the beastmen who lived here before quite enjoyed gardening, as there were many unseen flowers in the yard.

Merrick lived in the yard next to him, smiling as he said: "Fortunately, these green-skinned orcs have no gender distinction, otherwise they would face some things worse than death."

Duke understood his meaning; there were many perverts among Wizards, ordinary stimuli could no longer satisfy them.

These Wizards harbored peculiar fetishes for some strange races from other planes and often, upon conquering cities like Moon Shadow City, would take the opportunity to savor the local youths and maidens.

Luckily, these beastmen seemed to be just burly bachelors, but it couldn't be ruled out that some Wizards liked this sort.

Duke had long been immune to this; even if he saw someone calling a few beastmen into their room at night, he wouldn't feel surprised.

After a simple meal of dry rations at night, Duke started contemplating future matters.

Duke already knew that the vicinity of Moon Shadow City was rich in minerals, and the Golden Scale Celestial Iron produced here was an exceptionally high-quality magic metal.

He glanced at the emblem of Yellow Sand Crystal on his left arm and thought to himself: "I wonder if there's a chance to acquire some Golden Scale Celestial Iron to nourish the Yellow Sand Crystal. This magic metal would certainly be unaffordable for me if sold on the Wizard Plane. But here, maybe I can find an opportunity to obtain some…"
