"Seriously?
I still got lost despite my powerful spiritual sense!"
Austin unleashed his spiritual sense to look for creatures but found nothing.
With his current spiritual sense, he should be able to perceive ten universe communities in the blink of an eye, let alone just one.
However, all he sensed was all kinds of mysterious areas.
Not a single sign of any living creature was detected.
"This doesn't make any sense.
The isolated alien spaces should be home to many kinds of living beings."
Under his control, the airship sped up. Even as a couple of days passed, he still didn't find anything.
Since he was at a loss with nowhere to go, Austin continued to aimlessly travel for the lack of better options.
More than ten days went by and there was still no sign of any living being.
'I'll be trapped here for the rest of my life if I don't find a way out.' Austin sighed internally.
One day, he noticed that the airship had entered a dark area.
Everywhere he turned to look was filled with clouds of dark shadows.
No light, air, energy, nor laws could be sensed within the shadows.
After a moment's thought, Austin unleashed his spiritual sense to check.
Trillions of miles were filled with nothing but thick clouds of the dark shadows.
Its vastness was nearly dizzying.
If he had to compare, the area that the shadows covered was larger than ten dozen universe communities.
A deafeningly silent and desolate air filled the area.
Only specks of dust and meteorite fragments aimlessly floated in the air.
After traveling through the shadows for a while, Austin couldn't help but be on his guard.
'Wait. Something's wrong.
I feel like I'm being watched.'
Austin frowned.
By then, he arrived at a secret place within the shadows.
"Ha-ha! A human came!"
"This is going to be interesting. It looks like he's very young.
Yet he made it here. Lady Luck must be smiling down on him!"
"Take him here and let's play with him.
We have nothing to do anyway. It's so boring."
Some creatures discussed with one another through their spiritual sense.
All of them were cloaked by the shadows, their eyes fixed on Austin.
'I knew it. I'm being stared at, '
Austin concluded as goosebumps broke across his skin.
'Perfect!
I've been here for so long; now I finally meet some living beings.
They must be creatures of the isolated alien spaces!
I finally got here!'
Instead of feeling scared, Austin couldn't help but be excited.
After so long, there were finally living beings close to him.
"Let's do it. Let's take him alive and ask him how he got here."
Once they reached an agreement, the small shadows with different shapes sneaked up to Austin's airship.
Thanks to his powerful spiritual sense, Austin managed to immediately spot the approaching shadows.
"Perfect. I can't wait to meet you!"
Austin's lips pulled into a wide smile.
In the next moment, he tucked his hands behind his back and stepped out of the airship.
"Look at this young man's boldness. I can't believe he just walked out like that."
"Humph! If he stayed in the airship, it would've been more difficult to take him prisoner.
Yet he came out.
It's a good thing for us though."
Some living beings secretly chattered with each other from where they were hiding in the shadows.
Meanwhile Austin was just standing in the dark space with his hands behind his back.
