Path of Absolute Transcendence

After leaving the blood sea, Kai and Shark Head took a moment to rest. On their way back, he didn't encounter any danger, they didn't even see any other living creatures.

'Why is the blood sea so calm?'

Kai pondered while looking the red sky. He read in the book of the First Explorer blood sea is the most dangerous place in the entire Abyss World, not consider the dragon lair.

But he didn't even spot a single creature and even the blood contained in the sea water lost their concentration at the depth.

'Just how did the Naline King obtain his fragment?'

This was another one doubt of Kai. During the history he learned of Naline Kingdom from Dono family library, he didn't get any clue about the sudden appearance of another fragment. This was the mystery for Kai, but he had suspicion that another person was probably manipulating the entire scene.

'I should not worry about that anymore.' With that Kai took the fragments from war and began to inspect their abilities.

The fragments didn't resist Kai's advancement when he injected his Will Power.

*HA HA HA*

Kai laughed happily after learning about the ability. The fragment that Natine king held has the ability called [Phase], which he already knew since he saw the battle from afar.

The [Phase] ability allows the user to pass through matter by consuming energy. The disadvantage of this ability was that the opponent's strength shouldn't be too far apart and energy consumption.

The second ability was the one that made Kai happy. It was called [Dimensional Rift], which allows the user to teleport.

Although this ability works the same like teleportation and doesn't seem surprising from description alone, but it wasn't simple as that.

It does work like teleportation, but it can ignore anything between travel, whether they are space storm, formation or seal. Now, Kai can directly ignore the restrictions of formation and leave this damn world.

In regular teleportation and teleportation formation, the danger of space storm and other dangers exist, but [Dimension Rift] was a sure fire way.

'I can't even teleport properly, why do I think have to its disadvantages'

Kai took the [Dimensional Rift] fragment in his hand and injected his Will Power. He wanted to try escaping his world.

When he injected the intention to teleport, he mind sucked into vast expanse of darkness.

'Where is this place!?' Kai wondered and calmly inspected, since he didn't sense any danger.

He saw small white dots blinking here and there, the rest of space was filled with darkness.

When he moved his hand in one of the dot, his Will Power began to dry at a crazy rate. In a matter of moments, without even able to resist, his entire Will Power sucked dry and Kai was thrown out of the dark space.

Kai took a deep breath after came out the place. His face was covered in sweat and his hands even trembled due to loss of energy.

"Young master, is there any problem with your body?" Shark Head, who was patrolling the surrounding arrived near Kai and asked.

"Nothing to worry about, I just experimented with the fragment ability." Kai shook his head and replied "Go and patrol, I need to recover my energy."

Shark Head nodded and left without asking any question.

'This ability is really mysterious.' Kai thought after he understood the entire situation.

The dark space was similar to universe and the lights are existing planets that Kai can teleport with the current state of fragment.

The reason his energy drained was because his Will Power wasn't enough to the support the enourmous energy required for teleportation.

'Even if I break through, I won't be able to get out of this world. I need to find a alternative fot energy source.' Kai sighed and sat in a meditative position.

Kai can use the Genesis root, which was a peak Tier 5 treasure to extract energy and get out of this place. But he didn't want to use that, honestly it was a waste to use the Genesis root as energy source.

He would only use that if life was ever at risk, otherwise he would go and find another tribe and condense faith energy to escape.

After meditating for an hour to recovering Will Power, Kai returner to peak condition.

"Shark Head, its time for us to leave this place."

Kai took a fragment and decided to walk in south west direction, where the last the fragment located.

Honestly, he didn't even know that the fragment exist there, but he had no choice to leave it to luck.

Kai and Shark Head set their course to the southwest, the last fragment of power their beacon in the vastness of the untamed wilds. The initial leg of their journey was marked by an uncharacteristic calm, the land seemingly holding its breath in the wake of their purpose.

But tranquility is often the harbinger of chaos, and it wasn't long before the first sign of turmoil pierced their solitude. A beast, eyes aflame with the crimson hue of madness, barreled into their path. Its snarls were a cacophony of rage, its movements erratic and savage. Yet, for all its fury, it was but a Tier 2 creature—a minor nuisance for Kai, who stood a tier above.

With a flick of his wrist and a pulse of dark energy, Kai dispatched the creature, its body collapsing into the dust from whence it came. But the beast's demise was merely the overture to a symphony of destruction.

As Kai and Shark Head ventured deeper into the wilds, the number of beasts grew exponentially. Each one was a mirror of the first—red-eyed and berserk, a slave to an unseen frenzy. The land itself seemed to convulse with their presence, the air thick with the stench of primal ferocity.

Then came the onslaught. More than thirty Tier 3 beasts, each a formidable adversary in its own right, descended upon them. The ground shook with their charge, the sky darkened by their sheer number. Shark Head, overwhelmed by the tide of beasts, could offer no aid. He was a spectator to the battle that unfolded, his role relegated to that of a bystander.

Kai, undaunted by the odds, embraced the chaos. His form shimmered, splitting into two—the physical and the astral. His astral body, a specter of battle-hardened will, stood ready to face the horde.

To Shark Head, Kai entrusted the fragment imbued with the [omnipresent veil] ability. "Hide," he commanded, his voice a steel thread amidst the roar of beasts. "Do not interfere."

Shark Head, clutching the fragment, faded from sight, his form obscured by the veil's power. He was a ghost in the tumult, his presence erased from the battlefield.

Kai, now alone, faced the tide of red-eyed fury. The beasts, sensing a singular prey, converged on him with a collective hunger.

Kai formed a sword using his Will Power and rushed towards the horde of beast. Kai wasn't afraid of them even though he was alone, because among Tier 3 cultivators or beast only a selected few can battle against him at his full strength. He used his [Will manipulation] to its pull potentiom to distrupt the beast and caused a chaos among themselves.

His astral body also took the chance and charged forward. Kai used the fire element to denotate the surroundings to further injure and enrage the beast. Their attention turned to him, giving the Astral body more freedom.

In just one swords strike, a beast died without any resistance. Their companion didn't care the death of its kin and only focused on killing Kai. This situation became even advantageous for Kai. He began to attarct the attention of the beast, while his Astral body eliminate the beast.

The battle was a spectacle of carnage and grace, a testament to Kai's strength and the ferocity of the awakened world. It was a dance of death, played out on the stage of the wilds, where the only audience was the silent Shark Head, hidden behind the veil of his own powerlessness.

As the last of the beasts lay vanquished, Kai's astral form rejoined with the physical, the two becoming one once more. The ground was littered with the fallen, the air cleared of the red mist that had driven them to madness.

"Let's go and investigate the situation, I think there is something wrong with these beast appearing here."

"Okay, young master." Shark Head appeared and handed the fragment to Kai.
