Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"I hope you got a way to bring me back," William returned back to the first spot he landed at when he came here. He stood over the spot surrounded with lots of symbols and writings and waited.

"Hmm… Shall I give it a boost or what?" but nothing happened at first, at least until he activated his spirit power and tried to connect to the circle on the ground with both palms placed there.

*Boom!*

And just like what happened at the surface, his body got blown away by a fierce gale of wind, sending his body flying and crashing to the ground.

"Ouch! That old fox is really crazy!" William stood up, cleared the dust off his clothes, before going back to the circle.

Like before, the gale of wind appeared fast and disappeared faster. It was as if this wind only waited for him.

William knew what to do. It seemed that the old fox made everything here depending on his fox spirit body. When William activated his spirit body and stepped over that circle, air started to appear and carry him upwards.

He didn't need to do anything else, not even use his spirit power at all. He kept rising up through the long tunnel, and finally he returned back to the surface.

"Even if I didn't seal this place, this old fox made sure that no one but me would step into that hole down below," William recalled the Transformers who sat their eyes over this fox's statue. And he couldn't help but laugh at them.

It seemed they knew part of the truth, not the right way of how to enter here. If William didn't stop those bunch of gold spirit masters, then he was sure they would have failed to find their way to the statue down below.

Even if that ball worked before, it wouldn't make any difference at all. "That ball… I need to check lots of things…" William felt a little tired. Unlike what he planned, he simply decided to remain the night in here.

He spent lots of time in his travels to and from that underground cave. William was curious about the places of these caves he kept visiting out of late. And he got a crazy guess.

He thought it'd make lots of sense if these caves were actually deep down the nine hills themselves. It might look crazy for the Transformers to hide inside these hills, just so close from the fort, but it was a thought that he couldn't remove from his mind.

And just when he thought he'd enjoy a nice sleep, something new happened.

"What is this?!" William used to have dreams from time to time, but right now he felt like he wasn't actually dreaming. He just closed his eyes and his mind drifted to the world of dreams. And there he found himself standing in the middle of a large open space, filled with lots of black fog, with less than one hundred metres of clear space of white ground around.

"Don't fret, I'm here as a friend."

Just as he felt weird about being here, he heard a stranger's voice coming from the depths of the black fog here.

"Show yourself!" William shouted, not knowing from where this voice came from, "and who are you?"

"I can't reveal myself for my reasons," the one who spoke kept his mysterious act, before adding, "and I'm here to help you in your quest."

"Oh, what quest?" William felt a little interested and got amused by this weird situation, "is this a dream or what?"

"It's indeed a dream," that intruder admitted. And that made William's eyes shine. "Dream spirit element… What a nice spirit element you have here."

"This…" it seemed the one who forced himself into William's dreams got startled by his words.

"So, it's true, hahahaha!" William laughed, "I guessed it's either that or the annoying illusion spirit element. But luckily for me, it's the dream element."

"It seems you know more about me than I initially thought," that spirit master wasn't able to get over his surprise from William's words, "but I never recall meeting you before."

"It's not important," of course William never met him. And now he really wanted to meet him in real life, not in the dream world.

He couldn't believe he found another gem just by sleeping! And on top of that, he was the one who sought him out!

"Tell me, what do you want?" William knew such a spirit master didn't come here to just introduce and deliver himself over. And for a reason, William couldn't help but feel that he was an enemy.

He didn't ask about his identity, as it was clear this spirit master didn't want to expose anything related to his identity.

William wasn't worried. After all such dudes were quite powerless in reality. There were rare techniques that would turn their spirit element into a deadly weapon, but it required lots of conditions to be met.

William didn't see any value in this spirit master regarding actual fight prowess without any of these rare techniques. And that was why he felt instantly comforted when he learnt about his spirit element.

The real value behind such a spirit element wasn't in any battle abilities, but in the ability to communicate with anyone as long as this spirit master had his photo. William knew his face was well known to many by now. And so, it wasn't a surprise for such a spirit master to get his face poster.

If he worked for William, then no matter how far his close-up people were, he could simply organise and orchestrate their movements from far away.

"I'm here to deliver a message," that dark spirit master was feeling more unease by being around William. He didn't like anyone to see through him, not to mention a stranger that knew his secret, his spirit element. And for a reason, it felt like the youngster he visited in his dreams wasn't a bit startled or scared of him.
