The Alpha's body flashed in a streak of crimson, appearing on the shore in a single instant of time. It felt like it was riding on the wind, its body even gliding across the surface of the Dark River as though it was solid land for a moment before vanishing inside within.
'Fascinating…' Theron thought.
The Dark River was incredibly dangerous. Unlike with normal rivers, walking on top of it with just a simple application of Mana wasn't possible.
Cultivators could often take advantage of surface tension, making their Mana and that of the surface of a body of water react with a repulsion to one another, ultimately allowing them to walk across the surface.
But Dark Mana was too amorphous. It lacked substance and density. Trying to walk across it was about as easy as trying to walk across air. If you could do that, you would be able to fly as well.
At least theoretically.
