The Mystic Realm itself was quite lifeless. The surreal surroundings, the castle-like building, and the floating castle pieces were the only things in existence there.
"Unstable? Does it mean the castle will break?" Zayn was stupified by Infinite Star's remark. Infinite Star, warning that the Mystic Realm was unstable, wasn't a good sign for Zayn.
"Yes! Not only the Cultivation Palace but also the whole Mystic Realm will cease to exist. It seems that the ancient Space Law doesn't support the existence of the Mystic Realm anymore. It will start by ripping pieces of the Mystic Realm apart and contain it inside it. Then it will begin to compress the whole Mystic Realm and after that, it will vanish from existence! You don't have a lot of time. Use as much as you can!"
"For real?!? How much time is left?"
"I think less than a month..."
Zayn's facial expression turned from a worried one to a not caring one.
"One month... That's far too much time! Why are you pressuring me so much..."
"You should be still aware of the risks here! More information isn't damaging you!"
Zayn smiled at Infinite Star's remark. He was right, it was better for Zayn to know that than to learn that at the end.
"Let's go..." Kayn's lifeless voice reminded Zayn about their undertaking.
Kayn began to walk to the castle, as Zayn followed behind.
"What do you search ?..." While they were walking Kayn began to strike up a conversation.
"Search? Nothing?"
"I mean in the Mystic Realm... What do you want to get out of it?..."
"Oh. I didn't think about that... What are you searching?"
"A weapon... Spirit Weapon..."
As Zayn heard of the word weapon he was inspired by it, but he then heard the term Spirit Weapon and was at first puzzled about the term. But he then thought that it could be weapons which use some of this world's customary.
"Kid, Spirit Weapons are weapons which are able to transmit and store Qi. There are many different grades for Spirit Weapons, making some Spirit Weapons stronger than others. The Spirit Weapons are also generally stronger than normal weapons, because of the valuable materials they are made of.
The thing is that Spirit Weapons can only be used by Qi Core Realm cultivators or higher realm cultivators. For that boy it would be useless. The only usage he would have would be the natural material strength of the weapon.
If he would be able to repair his Devouring Qi Body, then this would be another case..."
Zayn understood the grip of it. Spirit Weapons seemed to be interesting, but as Infinite Star pointed the cultivation restriction out, Zayn's interest was lost now.
"Can I use Spirit Weapons earlier than other cultivators? ... Well, you know because of the Infinite Star Arts..." Zayn smirked at Infinite Star. With his understanding of the cultivation world and the Infinite Star Arts, he knew that with the help of the ultimate Qi Cultivation Technique, the Infinite Star Arts, he could do the impossible things.
"Yes. The reason as to why Qi Core Realm cultivators can use Spirit Weapons lies in the control of the Qi and the amount of Qi of the cultivators. But you're not the average cultivator. Your Qi Control and amount of Qi would fulfill the requirements already in the Qi Gathering Realm."
Zayn was delighted about that fact. He knew he had an overwhelming advantage over the other cultivators with Infinite Star helps, but this didn't ruin Zayn's fun as he reasoned with himself that his lack of knowledge about the world was a huge disadvantage, evening out his advantage.
Kayn and Zayn continued towards the castle-like building, what Infinite Star called a Cultivation Palace.
They arrived pretty quickly at the entrance of the Cultivation Palace and opened up the enormous entrance.
Somehow the task of opening up the empowering entrance was easier than expected. Zayn didn't need to use much effort. He knew that it wasn't because of his cultivation or Kayn's cultivation. It lied in the entrance itself. It helped one in opening up.
"Let's split up..."
"What?!? That doesn't sound like a good idea. I think it would be better if we just stayed together." Zayn was shocked by Kayn's proposal. The act of splitting up was never a good sign, in Zayn's head.
"Do you have a Transmission Qi Stone?... Show me..."
"Yes!" Zayn answered out of reflex and pulled out the Transmission Qi Stone, which Vown gifted him.
"All right..." Kayn looked at the Transmission Qi Stone and then showed his Transmission Qi Stone. After a few breaths, he stored the Transmission Qi Stone and walked into the Cultivation Palace.
"Contact me if something grave is happening..."
Zayn was confused at this development. He quickly followed behind.
"Kid, it's great that you guys split up. The boy surely thought of it and knew that it would be the case for you two. You don't need to split up your treasures or anything at all. Everyone finds his own chances in the Mystic Realm. Even if you're best friends, it will be still hard to split up everything between you two. I have to say that the boy somehow is really experienced.
Ah, right! Kid, do you really have infinite space?" As Infinite Star asked about Zayn's infinite space, his voice sounded really mischievous.
Zayn began to think about it. He really didn't know if his Inventory had a limit.
"Daisy does the Inventory have a limit?"
"No. It doesn't have one." The monotonous voice again ringed in Zayn's mind.
"I have infinite space. Why?" Zayn answered to Infinite Star.
"Well, well, well..."
.
"To your right, be careful! You can easily notice that. Try to sense for anything that sticks out. Only rely on your Qi to sense all."
Zayn was in the Cultivation Palace. He was now situated in a narrow hallway.
The odd thing was that Zayn had his eyes closed, the whole time. Infinite Star was guiding him as to where and how to walk.
This was of course for Zayn's Spirit Sense training. Infinite Star finally began to teach Zayn how to utilize his Spirit Sense.
But Zayn was already regretting, asking Infinite Star to teach him. He was completely blinded and had to stuff up his ears. He could only rely on his Spirit Sense to walk.
The worst part was that Infinite Star told Zayn that nearly every Mystic Realm was mined with traps.
So, Zayn had to also be careful, as to where he would walk. Infinite Star used his own Spirit Sense to warn Zayn for any traps, but he only did it in the last few seconds.
Infinite Star wanted, that Zayn could use his Spirit Sense to navigate himself around and also to be able to sense the traps, without his help.
"KID! WAIT! Don't move! Take a sharp turn to your left and move slowly..."
