Chapter 794 - Second-Level Void Fracture
"Since that is the case, I will leave these items with the four of you; I hope it will be of some assistance."
Leon decided to leave a portion of the demon cores for the four tribes before departing the forest with his group.
However, not long after they left the four tribes behind, the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman also expressed his intention to leave the group.
"It's regretful and may even sound selfish to leave after this old man received so much benefit from Young Master Leonhardt, but this old man wishes to find my tribesmen and check up on how they are," the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman suddenly mentioned.
"Oh? Is that so?" Leon uttered with surprise.
"Yes, Young Master Leonhardt," the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman nodded with a guilt-ridden face before saying, "However, once this old man finds his tribesmen, this old man will immediately head over to the western region to meet up with Young Master Leonhardt."
"I see..." Leon thought for a moment before he nodded and said, "Fair enough, let us meet later in the western region, Senior One-Eye."
"Yes, Young Master Leonhardt," the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman replied with his head lowered subserviently before adding, "Thank you for your understanding, Young Master."
"You speak too seriously, Senior One-Eyed. It's not a big deal," Leon waved his hand at the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman with a noncommittal attitude. "Please go on and do what you need to do with peace of mind."
Although he likes to keep the extra protection that a Battle King can provide from Darlene and Aria, it doesn't bother him too much whether the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman keeps following him or leave.
"Thank you, Young Master Leonhardt," the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman bowed again.

Despite reaching the Late-stage Preliminary Accession Transcendent, Darlene had yet to gain the flight ability—though she can mimick something close enough to flying with her spatial abilities.
Nevertheless, she preferred the spoil treatment of getting carried on Leon's back.
Sometime later, they landed on the previous floating landmass they discovered in the dark clouds before Aria and Darlene glanced around in wonder and astonishment.
"There was such a big floating island in the sky?" Darlene exclaimed with surprise.
At the same time, Aria suddenly thought of something before turning to ask Leon, "All the Tier-6 defensive artifacts you've given me were found here, wasn't it?"
"Yes, that's right," Leon openly admitted before adding, "Though, there's nothing left now. I already pocketed everything valuable here."
"Hm? Then why did we come here?" Darlene tuned in on their conversation.
"If you see the giant power chains are the corners, you should be able to guess that there are at least another three floating landmasses," Leon explains.
"We don't know how far those other landmasses are, so we are using this floating landmass as a checkpoint to navigate to those other places."
"Ooh, I see," Darlene nodded with understanding before she suddenly chuckled, "Hehe, I guess it's time for me to show my worth."
Although she enjoyed riding on Leon's back, she shouldn't act spoiled all the time; she should at least contribute, especially when she could save them time.
Nevertheless, Leon and Aria immediately expressed their interest in her claim.
"Oh? What do you plan to do, Sister Darlene?" Aria asked.
"I will help us reach the next floating island quickly with a single jump through space," Darlene patted her chest with a confident look before suddenly humbly herself in front of Aria. "Though... we can just fly there normally if it is what Sister Aria wants."
"No, I'm more interested in how you will bring all of us to the next floating island in a single jump through space," Aria asserted with a smile before asking curiously, "However, isn't this kind of spatial ability considered Teleportation? Are you already at that level, Sister Darlene?"
"N-not at all, Sister Aria."
Darlene waved her hands while shaking her head frantically to deny the claim before saying, "Only Paragons can use Third-level Spatial Law, Teleportation; I'm still far from that level."
"Furthermore, the Third-level Spatial Law, Teleportation, allows people to leap through the space of different worlds, and even stars. However, what we'll be doing will is only moving through the space of this secret realm."
That being said, Darlene used her spatial sense to feel the end of the giant power chain before locking onto a location.
Then, she waved her hand and sliced open the space in front of her, opening up a rift to a dark void.
Void Fracture!
She waved her hand again, slicing at the dark void inside of the spatial rift before another tear opened up on the other end.
Through that second spatial tear, some faint light revealed a similar-looking floating landmass like the one everyone was standing on.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I-it's done! Let's go; I can't keep this space open for long," Darlene urged everyone while they were still amazed.
She had to use her spatial ability to stabilize the spatial passageway from closing; if both ends close while they are inside, they could end up lost in an unknown space.
"Let us enter quickly," Leon also urged, seeing how the ability was quickly draining her.
Such was the price for using an ability above her cultivation level.
Nevertheless, once Leon gave the order, Saresha and the rest of the dark faes had no choice but to follow him through the dark passageway.
Contrary to their misgivings and fear, everyone made it through to the other side without an issue.
"How was it? I'd say we crossed about 200 miles in only a few breaths; it's quite the convenient ability for traveling. I call this skill Dark Passage."
Darlene introduced her new ability with a hint of fatigue before Leon furrowed his brows in response.
"You only just reach the Late-stage of Preliminary Accession, Darlene. How did you learn this ability only Seeking Insight Transcendents could perform?" Leon asked. "Did you..."
He suspected Darlene may have absorbed some of the Empyrean Infinite Void's law comprehension and memories.
However, Darlene froze in response.
She might have gained some insights into Void Fracture, but she hadn't learned any skill yet; why did she already know one?
The discovery puzzled her.
