Author's note: A correction about the next item for the Starlight Body Cultivation Technique. It wasn't supposed to be Charged Provis Crown Feathers. Instead, It was the Iridescent Tear, introduced back in the older chapters. I have already fixed the previous two chapters. When you see the Iridescent Tear now, know that it took the place of the Charged Feathers. If you already saw Iridescent Tear, then it simply means I fixed the issue before you read the chapter, so it is fine. Anyway, forget about the Charged Crown Provis Feather. It doesn't exist anymore.
'How much freedom?' Jakar was obviously puzzled by the sudden question. 'What do you mean?'
Rean explained, 'I might get us out of here, but things like teleportation don't work due to the scrambled space. If you can bring both of us somewhere where the space isn't scrambled, then I can bring us out... or at least try to.' Rean was obviously thinking about using the Circuitry Teleport Formation. As long as the space wasn't scrambled, it would work. As for Jakar's cultivation level, Rean could simply pay 20000 Destiny Points to allow him into the Dimensional Realm.
Jakar had bad news, though. 'Oh, that?! Too bad... the space is scrambled on its own due to the mountain range's properties. It extends for several thousands of kilometers. I might be able to move around the mountain range, but I definitely can't leave it.'
And that's how the idea of teleporting crumbled as soon as it appeared. 'Tch... then I guess I've got no more options.'
It was then that Rean remembered something. 'Wait, first of all, how did you manage to escape before?'
Jakar already expected that, replying, 'Well, I was a little too crazy... and lucky.'
Before Rean could ask what he meant by that, Luio warned Fran. "Fran, don't let this idiot get close to another teleport formation. It was already a miracle he didn't die when he tried to teleport within the scrambled space once. He definitely won't be that lucky twice."
Rean looked at Jakar with a shocked expression after hearing that. "You used a teleport formation in a place like this?! Are you crazy?! The spatial storms should have destroyed you!"
Jakar scratched the back of his head. "Well, at that time, I was just too fed up with all this pressure. In the end, I thought that it might be better to escape at any cost or die trying. Fortunately, I didn't fall into any spatial storms by pure luck, so I ended up somewhere else in the Realm of Gods. Now that I think about it, I was even luckier to still be in the Realm of Gods at all."
"Hmph!" Fran snorted in response. "You also have your Golden Feather to thank for. No doubt the previous Golden Feather holders protected you during that recklessness. Of course, I won't let you get close to any other teleport formation anymore."
Ligra then grabbed Jakar with her Spatial Powers and began to move away. "Well, I'm bringing him to the sanctuary. I'll stay there with him until he reaches the Void Tempering Realm."
"Let me go!" Obviously, Jakar complained. "I don't want to stay here. I can cultivate anywhere else!"
Ligra, Luio, and Fran completely ignored him, though. Not long after, Jakar had already disappeared from Rean's sight. Now he was alone with Fran and Luio.
"Errr... what about me, then?" Rean couldn't help but ask.
Luio narrowed his eyes as he looked at Rean closely. "Spatial Powers at the Transition Realm. A Pocket Dimensional Realm as well. Fran, isn't this the boy the humanoids were desperately looking for?"
Rean felt a chill on his back when he heard that. Obviously, Spirits at Fran and Luio's level could feel his Spatial Powers and Dimensional Realm now that they were very close to him.
Fran nodded in response. "I thought the same thing. However, the rest simply doesn't match. The humanoids gave us a perfect picture of both the kids' outer appearance and internal structures. This guy is completely different. Also, it seems like his affinity is Fire and not Light or Dark."
Rean thanked his foresight for keeping his Yang Energy as the main driving force of elements around his body. Thanks to that, it did indeed look like he was a Fire Element user. Well, Roan was also part of the reason, of course.
Luio walked around Rean and looked at him closely. "Indeed, he's very different. However, it might be due to some kind of body-changing technique. The fastest way is to check his Dimensional Realm. There are supposed to be thousands of cultivators living inside."
Luio then spread his Divine Sense and quickly called someone. In the next moment, Rean saw a Winged Provis flying in their direction. "Dad, Uncle Luio, I heard you got Jakar back."
This time, it was Fran's kid instead. Well, Rean still didn't understand the problem of no genders, but he could ask about it some other time.
Fran nodded in response. "That's correct, Jansa. Your aunt already carried Jakar back to the sanctuary, so you can go see him later."
Luio continued from there. "Lansa, you're still in the Middle Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm, so I need a favor from you. Enter this guy's Pocket Dimensional Realm and tell me what you find there."
Lansa looked at Rean with a confused expression, asking, "And just who is this guy?"
Rean raised his hand, saying, "Hi, I'm Tian, a friend of Jakar. Your... dad... brought me together with Jakar, so here I am."
Luio wasn't in the mood to wait, though. "Well then, Tian. Let Lansa go into your Dimensional Realm for a few seconds, and then let her out. Depending on what we find there, we'll know whether you're the guy we're looking for or not."
"My Pocket Dimensional Realm is where I keep most of my Divine Stones and treasures, you know? Would you just let anyone enter like that if it was you?" Rean asked back.
Luio shrugged his shoulders in response. "You can let her enter your Dimensional Realm, or you can die here."
Rean nodded. "I've always wanted to show everyone just how well organized my Dimensional Realm is."
"Do you have no pride?" Frana and Luio asked. Sure enough, Rean had no pride whatsoever.
Fran then gave Rean a warning. "My daughter and I are connected. If you do something to her, I will know. Understood?"
"I don't want to get on anyone's bad side," Rean answered. "I'll just let her enter and look at everything she wants until she's satisfied. I just hope she won't try to steal my things."
"Dad, I think we should just kill him," Lansa obviously took Rean's words personally.
"Ahem... I'm joking, I'm joking. There's no way such a proud Winged Provis would try to steal a low-life humanoid being's belongings." Following that, Rean pulled Lansa into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.
