Chapter 17 - Revenge

Tian Lei nodded, grinning. "If this ring's owner left just this much, I can't imagine what else they stored away."

Inside his Divine Sea, Murong Yue rolled her eyes in exasperation. {You already have a pool of spirit energy. Do you really care so much about these spirit stones?} she said to him telepathically.

Tian Lei smirked, replying with mock defiance. 'Bah! You never know when they might come in handy,' he said as he dismissed her concern. Murong Yue simply shook her head.

{That ring was just a way for me to store extra luggage. The truly important things were always kept with me. If you're thinking it has more secrets, you'd be wrong,} she explained.

Tian Lei narrowed his eyes, his interest piqued as he examined the numerous Heavenly-grade treasures and Saint-grade artifacts. 'Wait… Aren't you just a soul? How do you have such a storage method?' he asked mentally.

Murong Yue's reply was nonchalant. {Ordinary storage treasures can be limited and vulnerable, so I use an Divine technique called the Great Void Space Art.}

{With this technique, one can create a personal void space, capable of holding anything and hidden from everyone. If I were to die, the space would collapse, leaving nothing behind. But since my soul persists, I still have full access to it,} she explained.

Tian Lei's eyes gleamed with excitement. "Teach me that technique!" he demanded eagerly.

Murong Yue smiled faintly and transferred the method directly into his consciousness. Tian Lei closed his eyes, his focus sharpening as he began comprehending the technique. Within minutes, he had mastered it.

Opening his eyes, he summoned a tiny dark spatial orb that hovered in his hand, radiating an ethereal glow.

"What is that?" Yuyan asked, her gaze fixed on the orb.

"It's a personal void space," Tian Lei explained. "A way to hide things in space. Unlike storage rings, it's completely undetectable and far more secure."

Yuyan's expression turned serious. "What a powerful technique… Space manipulation is one of the most profound laws. Few cultivators ever achieve it."

Tian Lei nodded in agreement. "It's essentially a superior form of a storage ring."

"Teach me!" Yuyan demanded, her curiosity and desire obvious.

Without hesitation, Tian Lei transferred the knowledge of the Great Void Space Art to her. She sat down immediately, closing her eyes as she focused on learning the profound technique.

Moments later, she opened her eyes and formed her own spatial orb. "I can't believe I managed this," she said, examining the small void she created.

Murong Yue's voice echoed in their minds. {Remember, this technique has five levels of mastery: Basic, Mastery, Great Mastery, Perfect Mastery, and Ultimate Proficiency. At the basic level, one can create a void space of 1 kilometer. Each level of mastery increases the space tenfold. The greater your understanding of this technique, the more powerful it becomes.}

{You can also use it as an attack method, though knowing your absurd comprehension, I'm sure you've already figured that out,} Murong Yue remarked with a hint of amusement.

Tian Lei nodded, his expression thoughtful. Indeed, he had already discerned the broader applications of the Great Void Space Art.

"Void Space isn't just about storage," he said aloud. "It's one of the six techniques within this art: Void Jump, Void Blade, Void Veil, Void Blast, and, of course, Void Space itself."

Yuyan's curiosity was piqued. "Explain these techniques," she said, her voice tinged with excitement.

Tian Lei began counting them off on his fingers:

Void Space: The foundational ability to create a personal void for storage. Completely undetectable and capable of immense growth with mastery.

Void Jump: A short-distance teleportation ability, allowing instantaneous movement across space.

Void Blade: A condensed slash of spatial energy, sharp enough to sever almost any material and bypass most defenses.

Void Veil: A defensive application, enveloping oneself in a barrier of spatial distortion that reflects or absorbs attacks.

Void Blast: A devastating explosion of compressed spatial energy, capable of obliterating anything in its radius.

"The higher your comprehension of this technique, the more you will unlock," Tian Lei added, as he looked at her, with her basic mastery she has only access to first art in it, Void Storage and as her mastery improves she will learn other arts in too.

Murong Yue interjected with a knowing tone. {Of course, mastering these techniques takes time. But given your monstrous comprehension, I wouldn't be surprised if you've already mastered them.}

Tian Lei just smiled as he indeed have learned the whole of it easily, he can already use the rest of the Arts in the Great void Space art easily.

Tian Lei handed over several million spirit stones to Yuyan, who accepted them without saying anything. She inspected the other books he gave her along with Spirit stones carefully, her eyes shimmering with excitement.

"Saint-grade techniques… and so many? It's overwhelming," she said, her voice filled with amazement.

Tian Lei smiled faintly. "You'll put them to good use," he said, brushing off her praise with a nod.

Though he handed her valuable techniques and resources, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt. Hidden deep within his realm was the Infinite Fortune Core, a treasure he had yet to reveal. Some things are better kept secret, he thought to himself.

Knowing in fantasies there is always a way to check ones memory no matter how unwilling one might be, so he decided to keep this secret only with him.

As they returned to the cave, where they were dropped thinking they were dead, Tian Lei stretched and looked around. "We're back," he said.

Yuyan nodded but quickly added, "yes and under different circumstances." she said remembering the time when she were on her last breath here and almost got died too.

Tian Lei smiled slyly, turning to her with a mischievous glint in his eyes. Before she could react, he grabbed her by the waist, pulling her close.

"W-What are you doing?" Yuyan stammered, her cheeks flushing.

Tian Lei smirked but didn't answer. In an instant, the two vanished from their spot and reappeared a kilometer away.

"That… that was Void Jump!?" Yuyan exclaimed, astonished.

Tian Lei chuckled, letting go of her gently. "Yes, though I've only managed to push it to a one-kilometer range for now. It's perfect for quick escapes or closing distances in battle."
