Path of Absolute Transcendence

Chapter 102: 102. Another civilization?

The thunderclouds expanded at an alarming rate and its speed doesn't seem to decrease any time soon.

With the mountain as a center, it expanded more than thirty miles. Dark red thunder is generated in the clouds, which is similar to the thunder used by Thunder Ape.

'Is this power similar to bloodline ability?' Kai thought after seeing the thunder.

He already saw red thunder and knew it contained an annihilating attribute in it, but the ape used its bloodline ability to achieve the result and the mountain was supposed to not have any bloodline.

'Why am I thinking about this useless matter?'

Kai knew that he wouldn't be able to evade this attack, so he decided to use his strongest attack to counter it.

He added his sword intent and darkness energy from his bloodline to his sword. The dark energy had been stored for more than two months inside his blood, which made it more powerful than his attack.

A deadly aura emanated from his sword, although it wasn't as powerful as he was when he used it against Sebastian, it was enough to kill any Tier 3 cultivators.

The mountain also attacked Kai after sensing danger from the sword. The thunder and lightning took the shape of a dragon and went towards him.

It is more than a hundred meters in length and it also has a life-like appearance; it doesn't seem like an attack created from elements.

[Absolute]

Kai used his strongest attack without holding back. His attack formed a dark sword ray and it travelled across the lightning dragon.

Both attacks clashed against each other, but Kai's attack was so strong that it obliterated the dragon without any resistance.

It directly cut the mountain top into two and disappeared. Now, the cone shaped mountain doesn't have its top anymore.

'I should have done this from the start.' He thought, but his face contained excitement.

Even Kai didn't expect that he was capable of doing such damage. He went near the mountain to check its condition and like he expected he didn't feel life from it anymore.

'So this type of natural spirit would have a core inside them.' Kai thought while holding a broken core in his hands.

His sword ray accidentally broke the mountain core, which killed it.

Kai left the place after he didn't find any information. He left the periphery of the mountain since his last attack caused a lot of noise, which could potentially attract a lot of predators.

After arriving at a safe location, Kai took the fragment from his storage ring with excitement.

He held it in his hands to acquire information about its ability. The information directly appeared on his brain like previous ones.

"Ha ha ha ha ha!" Kai laughed happily after digesting the information.

He even lost his composure after learning about this ability. Kai took a deep breath and calmed himself.

The ability of the fourth fragment is called [Temporal Distortion]. With this ability, Kai can slow or sleep up time around him.

It was the best ability that Kai acquired from the fragment, since it allows him to partially control time, one of the strongest elements like space.

With this ability, he can form a time field around him and manipulate the speed of time to his desire. The only disadvantage of this ability was that Kai's lifespan would pass according to the speed.

His usage rate of lifespan would increase with the use of the field, whether it is a slow-down field or a fasting field. So he can't use this ability to break the limitations of his talent.

With a happy mind, Kai left to search for the next fragment. The fourth fragment already gave him a surprise, so he is very eager to acquire the next one.

Kai knew that the fifth Fragment was in the west direction, so he activated his dark Angel form and traveled between the shadows.

This method of transport is faster for Kai since he has crossed a forest. It is also safer than walking and flying.

Kai didn't encounter any trouble during his travel. He successfully crossed the forest, and after that, he deactivated his bloodline power and flew normally for the rest of his journey.

After traveling for a month, the fragments resonated.

"I finally found it, I thought my luck was already used up in acquiring the fourth fragment."

He went towards the direction pointed by the fragment; the resonance increased, the deeper he went.

He had to stop at one point since he arrived at a dead end. There was a huge sea before him, but it wasn't suitable to call it a sea, since instead of water, it was full of blood and bones.

"Why does this fragment have to be here in all places?" Kai cursed after he saw the blood sea.

The blood sea was formed by the blood of creatures that died during the war between the dragon and powerhouses.

It didn't form a sea at the start, but any creature that neared lost its mind and became a mindless one that only listed after blood.

Soon, the sea affected countless creatures from the Abyssal World and became a sea on its own.

The creatures living inside the Blood Sea are stronger than the creatures from outside; they also highly outnumber them.

Kai obtained this information from the first explorer's book as he once visited the sea due to his curiosity.

He experienced the horror of it and recommended not to go inside it unless necessary.

That is the reason Kai began to hesitate to go inside the blood sea. Even the First Explorer, a supreme realm cultivator said it was dangerous, so Kai with his tier 3 cultivation would die without a doubt.

'Should I take the risk right now or come back after acquiring all other fragments' Backing down was never an option since he had to leave this world, so Kai began to think about the only available options.
