Chapter 251: Dao Vision of Space
Jack floated in space. He was an incorporeal ghost, a figment of imagination that may or may not be real.
Endless darkness surrounded him on all sides. Stars shimmered in the distance, so far away that even an immortals lifetime wouldnt be enough to approach them. The silence was almost deafening.
In this endless void, one figure stood alone. It was a woman with eyes the color of sunset and dark robes that floated soulessly in the absence of air. Her skin was pale, her features slim, and her long hair as dark as her robes as it fell over them.
Her gaze, however, was intense.
Jack inspected her.The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.
Vampire, Level ??? (C-Grade)
Faction: Dead Lands (A-Grade)
It was the first time he read about an A-Grade faction, but that wasnt the most shocking part.
All three of Jacks Dao Visions so far had contained C-Grades. The bald man whod easily annihilated a skyscraper-sized monster with a single punch, the bare-chested man whod faced an entire city of cultivators, and now this woman.
However, there was something different about this one.
Maybe it was because Jack had begun to approach this level of power, or maybe her level was just higher than the others. Whatever the case, as he laid eyes on her, he felt a power of such volume it was incomparable to the two C-Grade men in the other visions. Her mere presence enriched the surrounding Dao. The world was bowing before her might, spontaneously manifesting Daos more compatible to hers in the emptiness of space.
Or, rather, it was exactly this emptiness that radiated in waves from the woman, coloring the world around her like the golden touch of Midas.
Facing her, Jack felt like he was back at the Integration Tournament, where he received the planetary overseers pressure as a mere F-Grade. She was a creature far above and beyond anything hed ever experienced beforea God.
The only possible exception was Elder Huali, who had never let her aura show in front of Jack. Old Man Spirit, too. Though Jack had seen him struck down by the heavenly tribulation, that was hardly a normal occurrence. His power remained an enigma.
Suddenly, the woman moved. She reached out towards the void with both hands. An expression of deep concentration was plastered on her face.
Jack instantly erased all other thoughts and watched with rapt attention.
The womans hands moved slowly, yet steadily. Like she was confirming her progress with every inch forward. At some point, she closed her fingers around nothing and twisted.
The world danced around Jack. Instantly, he was lost. The woman was simultaneously right in front of him and far away; he could see her from different angles, like he had eyes everywhere. Even he, himself, was warped, his limbs stretching and contorting without him feeling anything wrong.
He remained uninjured, but he couldnt tell if that was part of the womans magic or a result of being an ethereal body in a Dao Vision.
However, he knew what she was doing; he could sense it clearly, a calling that emerged from the depths of his soul.
The ramifications of the womans final words rained down on Jack. He felt vulnerable. Was the System watching his every move, recording him, and using those recordings for its own benefit? Was he just a mouse in its cage?
No, he quickly calmed himself, thinking back to what he already knew. It cant be watching everything. When we were in the Ancient ruins, the System didnt know about it until we scanned something. It didnt see me in the Ancient Trial. When I later used the Life Drop to fight that chameleon, or against Old Man Spirit, the System couldnt have seen me, because if it had, it would have set out a bounty for me like it did for the ruins.
So, its not watching at all times. But it can watch. The space woman showed me that. Come to think of it, she caught the System watching, so there has to be some kind of hint. Like a Dao cameraor something. Maybe its monitoring high-level cultivators when it thinks theyre about to showcase something interesting?
Then, it looks like Im not that strong yetor, at least, I wasnt while in the E-Grade. Now How could I know?
Jack spread out his Dao perception, scanning every cubic inch of air with his full awareness, but found nothing.
It cant be watching all the time, he finally decided. But maybe, when Im about to showcase my powers, it willso I have to be careful with the Life Drop. Even when there is no one around, I cannot use it. Not unless I absolutely need to.
Jack finally raised his gaze. He remembered the words of Naujas father, the tribe chief: Dont trust the System.
He must have known.
This thought then led him to the Black Hole Church. They were against the System. Against the Immortals, who created it. What more did they know? How did they stay outside the Systems surveillance?
And, in the end, what should he reply to their standing offer? The Sage had invited Jack to join them. Should he?
The more he learned about the System, the more he leaned towards yesbut he still knew very little. Could he discover more without aligning himself with a major force?
Then again, hed already done that. He was a member of the Exploding Sun.
I have to ask Shol about the System and all these things, Jack resolved himself. The thought of anyone being able to watch and record him without his permissioneven his Daowas more unnerving than hed like to admit. I suppose it is a fair trade for what the System offers mebut I must know the truth.
First, however, comes training. If I am to somehow escape the Systems surveillance, I will need the ability to use my full strength without it. Specifically, my Dao Skills. I should rely on the System as little as possible. I know its doable.
Between cultivating, sparring, and meditating to expand his Dao, Jack had almost forgotten about this part. Hed actually discovered it back on Trial Planetthe System helped him with his Skills and Dao Skills, making them far easier to use than they were supposed to be. In return, his mastery over these skills became incomplete.
The System accelerated his growth greatly to a point, with the price being that he cut corners.
The way Jack had found to combat this was to use his skills inside his soul world. The System didnt have accessit was simply him, Copy Jack, and the Dao. Practicing there would teach him how to use his skills by himself, without the Systems assistance. He could slowly cut out the middle-man. It would also raise his mastery over his Dao Skills, and, by extension, their tier and power.
And the first one he would work on was Space Walk. It was a skill granted to him directly by his Class, but he didnt have the first idea of how it worked. Thankfully, he now had a Dao Vision that could teach him about spacethe first step to mastering his skill.
And who knows what other benefits it would bring him.
Therefore, Jack closed his eyes again, focused on the dark crystal sphere, and re-entered the Dao Vision. Space was an extremely useful Dao. He needed to understand it. And he would explore this vision until he did.
