Chapter 62: Soul sub space
"I am sorry. Because of me, you went through all that trouble. I promise that I'll protect this smile on your face forever. If anyone tries to harm you, I'll make sure to eradicate his existence from this world," Yohan thought to himself as he was looking towards Diya, who was sleeping calmly on her bed.
She was in deep sleep after the hassle she had been through during the entire day. Yohan understood her situation and he let her sleep calmly and didn't disturb her. After a few moments of looking at her beautiful face, he left the room without making a sound.
A moment later he arrived at the cultivation hall. He entered the hall and closed the door from the inside. He took a deep sigh as he approached the center of the hall.
"Things are looking very bad for me. I don't know what happened inside the Divine Blossom sect. My memories are still unclear and hazy, but I know one thing: that this woman, Xiao Feng, knows everything. Ana was right. She is bad news," Yohan thought to himself.
"But this is not the right time to linger in the past as I am not the trash who was bullied so easily in the past. I am not going to be dominated by those insignificant people," Yohan mumbled as he clenched his fist.
After thinking for a few moments, Yohan took a deep breath and the next moment he closed his eyes. The mark on his hand started glowing with blue light as he started focusing on his soul weapon, and the next moment a sword appeared in his grasp. Yohan smiled as he saw the Asura in his hand again as he was excited to see his soul weapon again.
A broad smile appeared on his handsome face after seeing the Asura again.
"Who cares about those things if you are with me, partner," Yohan mumbled as he looked towards the Asura radiating with a frightening aura in his grasp.
"Now it's time to practice the Thousand Steps sword technique." He mumbled those words as he closed his eyes again. The Thousand Steps sword technique was already transferred by the system into his will, but he hadn't practiced that technique yet, as various things had happened.
Ding!
[Host, do you want to initiate the tutorial of the Thousand Steps sword technique?]
"Yes, please," Yohan responded to the system as he heard that notification in his mind, and the next moment something unexpected happened.
"What the hell? What is this place?" Yohan mumbled as he was surprised. A moment before, he had been inside the hall, but now he was somewhere else. It had happened in the blink of an eye and he wasn't able to comprehend what had just happened to his surroundings.
His surroundings were completely different. No hall could be seen in front of his eyes. He had been transported somewhere inside some kind of a vast valley surrounded by mountains.
The sky was completely dark and the stars were dazzling in the sky in this place. It was nighttime, and Yohan was surprised to see this, and the next moment he heard a notification in his mind.
Ding!
[Host, you have entered the soul subspace]
[Soul subspace - a place which coexists with the real world. This is a privilege that you got after forming a soul bond with the Asura. Host, you can enter and exit this place at your will]
Yohan was taken aback after he heard those words which echoed in his mind. He looked towards the Asura in his hand, and the sword was burning with the black fire. Yohan gulped as he felt the surge of power in his hand.
After a moment later he gathered his thoughts and finally he understood that he was here because the Asura had a special function which was called the soul subspace.
He looked at his surroundings as he felt the Qi, which was very potent around this place. He tried to walk, but he felt heaviness in his movements as he was not able to walk properly.
"What the hell? Why am I not able to move properly?" he mumbled as he tried to walk, but his movements were slow.
Ding!
[Host, the gravity of this place is ten times higher compared to the outside world, and the timeline is also completely different. A single hour from the outside world is equal to one day in this soul subspace]
"What? That means 24 hours is equal to 1 hour here." Yohan couldn't believe what he had just heard, but after confirming this again, a smile appeared on his face. He clenched his fist and took a deep breath.
Ding!
[The tutorial of the Thousand Steps swords technique is initiating]
Out of nowhere, a notification resounded in his head and the next moment Yohan came to his senses again after hearing that notification.
"So, finally it's time to start practicing the Thousand Steps sword technique," he mumbled and the next moment a figure appeared in front of his eyes.
Yohan was surprised when he saw that figure. The figure was surrounded by pure white energy and he had no face. Only white, pure energy was enveloping that figure, and a sword could be seen in his grasp.
Meanwhile…
"He went inside the cultivation hall, huh? And what about that assassin who sneaked inside our clan? Is he still inside the guest quarters?" the old man Lin mumbled as he heard the words spoken by the other man in his room. He was sitting in the same lotus position inside his room. The same figure was standing in front of his eyes, wearing his black attire.
The old Man Lin opened his eyes and looked towards the man.
"Yes master, he is still inside the guest house, but two more people also joined him. You were right, that guy is not alone, and they are using the identities of the Pang clan," the man responded.
"The Pang clan, huh, that means the envoy of the Pang clan is already dead. Arjun, gather our men. We are going to hunt." The old man Lin took a sigh as he said those words.
That man named Arjun smiled as he heard those words from the old man Lin's mouth.
"Yes, master," he replied to the old man Lin and the next moment he left the room.
