His eyes fell on the object at the center of the lake. While he couldn't see it at first from the shore of the lake, the presence of different anomalies prevented him from seeing it.
Now that he has reached the island, he finally sees what is located at the center of the island. "Is that... a pill vial?" he asked himself, as on top of a pedestal in the center of the island is a vial that is used to store pills.
He went closer before finding a writing on the pedestal. "This is the Tower Forming Pill, a pill that will help in the formation of Noble's Tower. This will help a Genesis Sea expert to reach the Spirit Noble realm with ease. This is a Noble Grade Pill so one should be aware of its worth,"
His eyes nearly bulged. Noble Grade is a lot better than Genesis Grade, and it was not even close. Something like the Tower Forming Pill will likely be fought over by the Dukes of the Birak Kingdom, all of them at the Genesis Sea and wanting to reach the next cultivation realm.
He gulped slightly, knowing how important this pill was to the Duke, as it would help him reach the next stage. He grabbed it before putting it inside his storage ring before jumping back, waiting for the supposed spatial rift to emerge.
And then, just like the memory said, the spatial rift was formed when the treasure, the pill, was taken from the pedestal. Letting out a sigh of relief, he began to walk slowly towards it, his Soul Sense probing the rift first.
When he sensed nothing was wrong, he didn't enter but tried to use his mastery of the Law of Space to determine the location he would be sent to.
Much to his dismay, he was not able to determine such a thing, the space to chaotic, and comprehension was just too low to make sense of the constantly shifting space in the Void itself.
One thing is for sure, this is the only way for him to escape this place and he had to take it. Steeling his heart and praying to whatever higher power existed in the world, he jumped towards the spatial rift, hoping he would be sent somewhere relatively close.
-x-
When he entered the rift, he could see vast emptiness, nothing present in the area of the Void. He knew it was like this in the Void as he had glimpsed upon it previously but it was a different thing altogether when he entered the place.
As his entire body passed through the rift, it closed, signifying the Law of Space inside the hidden realm had been repaired. While he was glad he entered the rift, as if he was a bit late, he might be stuck inside the hidden realm for eternity.
He was also unnerved at the lack of spatial rifts, one that would allow him to escape the Void. He didn't want to escape the hidden realm just to be stuck inside the Void. That's the same as out of the fire and into the frying pan.
He used his mastery of Law of Space and tried to find any way out of the place. However, to his dismay, there is no way out at this moment. He wondered what he could do before he remembered one important thing.
He took out the tablet containing the Unbound Spatial Art and began to look into it. Each tablet can be read easily, the first part that is. One that will allow one to learn the basics of the Cultivation Art.
To read the next part, along with the associated Cultivation Technique, the requirement is to learn the Cultivation Art to the next stage before learning a new cultivation technique is possible.
The other prerequisite is for the related Path to reach the next mastery level. While his Unbound Spatial Art only reached the intermediate of stage 1, his mastery of the Law of Space had reached the Elementary Understanding.
So, he was able to delve deeper into the content of the tablet. He was able to find what he was looking for, thankfully.
"Tearing Void Blade, a technique used to create a way to enter and exit the void. While the advanced technique is something that will take me a long time, the basic is something I can do. The requirement is mastery of the Law of Space to reach the Elementary Understanding.
So, I can pull it off but it will be hard and there is no telling where I will exit from the void. Oh well, it's a risk I have to take," he talks to himself.
With that, he began to learn the technique, preparing for his escape from the Void.
-x-
He opened his eyes before performing a slashing motion with his hand. This resulted in a tear to form in the void, though it was only the size of his arm. He was not surprised by it though, as he didn't put much of his power behind it, only enough to form a tear in the Void.
It was the same thing he did for the past six hours or so, he believed. He couldn't really tell. Nonetheless, he was able to confirm that he could tear a way out of the Void. The reason for him to create tears through it is to find the best place to exit from the Void.
He didn't want to exit the Void only to find himself in the middle of a powerful beast nest, or bandit's hideout. So, he had to take the necessary precautions before he could perform his escape.
The last few tears were the ones he was the most optimistic about as there was no sign of powerful creatures or bandits when he used his Soul Sense to probe the area out of the rift.
He let out a sigh, his qi circulating as he prepared to escape. He couldn't keep stalling. He needs to exit the Void as he likely would not be able to even tell what is outside using his Soul Sense, accurately that is.
"Tearing Void Blade!" he calls out, creating an opening from the Void to the world. He quickly jumped out, releasing his Soul Sense before letting out a tired sigh, no sign of danger present, for now.
He almost lay down and rested if not for his mind telling him to find a suitable shelter first, lest some wild beasts or bandits spot him. He quickly ran away, feeling both tired and excited, finally escaping from the hidden realm.
