The holds were not like the Sea of Realms. There were no distinct spheres floating against each other in any kind of pattern. It was pure darkness save to those of the Eternal Realm.
At that realm, eyes were next to useless for taking in information. Light needed a source and to hit something for the eyes to take in what was. Aside from the golden barrier and the soft glow of the Sea of Realms, the holds were a void.
An Eternal Realm, however, had Path Power. It touches each part of their foundation and affects even their aura. With Path power, holds lit up like a Christmas tree. There was a reason they were called holds.
They contained the massive power of the Eternal Realm cultivator that was carved out by their power. It was a living world made solely on the power of the cultivator alone and only an equally powerful container could hold it in.
It formed a barrier that repelled the other holds while not causing a disruption. It was both awe inspiring and a warning.
