In the middle of the night, many people of the Zhou World saw a strange glow from outside their houses.
Curious, they looked outside their windows, only to see an expanding circle in the night sky. The people were shocked and many ran inside to wake everyone up.
Within five minutes, the moon had expanded to a size that made it proportional to the earth's moon.
Zhou Fan stopped expanding it as it reached that size since he had only planned to make it that big in the first place. The size of the moon was 5 times the earth's size.
Although Zhou Fan had some more plans for the moon, he felt a couple of presences traveling towards the moon. The presences were every void traversing cultivator in the Zhou World.
Zhou Fan had no choice but to evacuate the moon and teleport back to his floating palace. from there, he observed what transpired on the moon.
At first, the void traversing cultivators approached the moon with curiosity, but they soon got into a heated argument about who owns what.
Anna and the dragon king naturally had the advantage in the arguments, but they had made many agreements with the other rulers about fairness. Among them was a rule that said they could not threaten to use their strength in order to get benefits.
Although no one could stop them if they broke the agreement, even their own people would look down on them if they did.
In the end, the rulers decided to leave half the moon untouched, and split the rest evenly. The argument only ended so nicely because the moon had little to no use. There were no trees and you couldn't grow anything.
Even if they used Qi to make an area habitable to grow things, it would only bear the same result as growing it on the ground. Not to mention the fact that they would have to bring their own dirt since the moon rock was unable to grow anything.
The only thing that could be done with the territory on the moon was making a base, but in order for anyone below void traversing to live on it, they would need to make a formation to bring air and have a way to travel from the ground to the moon.
Since people below void traversing couldn't go in space, they would either have to make a very long bridge, which wouldn't be possible due to the rotation of the planet, or personally take people up there.
Of course, that wasn't Zhou Fan's problem. He had only made the moon in order to make the Zhou world feel more complete.
Right now, he was thinking of an idea he suddenly had. Carrying things around had long become inconvenient to Zhou Fan and he wanted to figure out a way to fix that problem.
He had thought about it for a while, but the only thing he felt he could do was create a space pocket to hold his stuff.
But that was easier said than done. Although Zhou Fans control over space had been increasing over time, creating a permanent pocket in space would be a bit much for him.
He may be able to do it, but it would take an uncomfortable amount of his Qi to keep it working constantly. The only way he could think to reduce the load was to make the space pocket inactive when he wasn't using it.
That would mean making an invisible storage that was around him at all times. As for how to keep it around him, he had an idea.
Zhou Fan grabbed at the air, causing the strongest materials in the planet's core to teleport to him. The fact that he could do such a thing proved he would be able to create a space pocket.
Zhou Fan melted all the materials he had taken down and condensed them, eventually forming them into a ring.
The ring was silver in color and completely unnoticeable by anyone below his realm. Zhou Fan then moved on to the hard part.
He carefully carved a hole in space and began to make it deeper and deeper. It was an extremely hard thing that most people couldn't even comprehend. After an hour of careful carving, Zhou Fan made it to a different layer of space. It was one that couldn't be seen normally.
Zhou Fan was glad at his success and carved a fine cube out of the space, before imprinting his Qi onto it and taking ownership of the space.
However, that wasn't enough. If he left it like that, the space would remain at that point forever.
Zhou Fan had to do one more thing before it could even be considered functional. Zhou Fan reached his two fingers in the space carefully and grabbed the cube he carved out.
The space around the cube instantly filled the space it left behind like water would. Zhou Fan carefully held the cube, using an immense amount of Qi so that it didn't disperse back to the world, and placed it on his ring where the stone would usually go.
Still supplying Qi to it, Zhou Fan layed many formations that would uphold the integrity of the space before he finally let go.
He watched the ring, waiting for it to either explode or do nothing. After a minute, Zhou Fan felt that it must have been a success.
The ring hadn't changed appearances at all from when it was first forged, but it now carried an invisible space on it.
The space was so tiny that a flea could barely fit, although the flea would die instantly due to the environment in there. Zhou Fan once again created a formation that this time made the space calm. Although he hadn't made it able to hold living things, he could now put items in there without them freezing or being destroyed instantly.
Zhou Fan then added a formation that made the ring usable. The formation, when Qi was put into it, would expand the space and make it the size of a mountain.
When the formation was deactivated, the space would shrink alongside everything else inside it.
Such a feat could only be achieved due to Zhou Fan power level. Now, the ring was ready to be tested.
