The Legacy System

That was the best they could do at the moment since they had no idea where had Eric run off to, and how far he had run.

Their speed was clearly not comparable to that of Eric, as he was traveling more than thrice the speed of sound into the void.

Even the strongest among the chasers the Realm 5 experts could only have a speed of 0.8 sound speed, which was way slower than Eric's.

If that wasn't enough, they had already lost more than 30 seconds of chasing up to him, thinking that he would appear in their close surroundings.

But they didn't have the need to actually catch up to him immediately, as long as they managed to find a trace of him through their spirit sense they would catch up to him sooner or later.

With those thoughts in mind, each of the chasing experts run at full speed in their direction trying to find traces of Eric's appearance or presence.

At this moment they didn't care about the idiots from the numerous organizations that were still waiting for their pardon, or an opportunity to escape the place and hide.

Eric's importance was way above them, making these poor experts not know how to feel.

On one side they were happy to have the opportunity, on the other hand, they were dissatisfied that even all of them weren't more worthy than a brat.

Heavens are truly unfair sometimes, giving some brat all those treasures, while they had to fight and bootlick for everything they had reached.

Of course, at that moment none of them even thought, or cared about what Eric might have gone through to reach what he had.

The only visible thing in their eyes was their greed, jealousy, and anger. If Eric was there seeing those faces, he would make sure to pull all the roots so he didn't have to bear these flies ever again in the future.

Unfortunately or fortunately right now he was far away traveling through the void corridor that the Escape Talisman had opened for him.

He felt just like someone being inside a bullet train and seeing how the image outside changed at an amazing speed, despite being blue all over the place.

It was impossible for him to control the direction of the Escape Talisman at the moment, so he could only get on with the ride.

It felt like there was some kind of touchable and untouchable glass in front of him that separated space from the void.

He could feel that he was inside the void and he wasn't able to breathe properly as there was no air, matter, or substance in there, which was also the reason for his high speed in there.

There was no resistance in the void, so there was no loss of his kinetic energy in friction of any other kind of energy or force.

He felt that something was wrong with his situation. After all, aren't these Escape Talismans supposed to be teleportation talismans that would teleport him far away?

Why did it take so much time?

Has it always been like this? Even though this was the first time he experienced traveling through the void, this was the first time that he actually managed to keep clear conscience through it.

Just like traveling with a new mode of transportation for the first time, since you weren't adapted to the speed and different vibrations, one was bound to experience motion sickness.

Slowly as he traveled more, he started adapting and getting used to the motion, and this was the first time that he was finally able to experience something like this.

It was amazing!

There was a great sense of achievement, happiness, and satisfaction inside Eric at that moment, but he didn't have the time to think about that.

Right now he was more concerned with the reason why his speed didn't increase but remained at this high constant speed all the time.

Well, he had an idea in his mind, and that was related to his current strength and speed, which seemed more probable.

But even then, his current speed in the void was at least a hundred times faster than his speed in the outside space.

The void was amazing!

He couldn't help but wish to find out and feel more about it. Slowly fixing Takeshiba Aika on his back he sat in the lotus position and started sensing the surroundings.

It was weird, extremely so. He felt just like some kind of weightless object standing afloat in the void while traveling at a constant speed towards his destination.

The void, aether was empty, there was no matter or substance in there, just empty space. He and Takeshiba Aika were the only 'matter' inside the void.

As he was trying to capture the meaning and sense of void, he suddenly came to his destination and he could only feel the glass that separated void from the living sphere break and open a door for him.

The development was so fast and sudden that he didn't manage to find much from it, but he could tell that it was extremely special and difficult to achieve.

That made him want to experience and search more about it, so he quickly took out another 15 km Escape Talisman and used it.

Since he had already gone through the 150 km Escape Talisman it was much easier with the 15 km one as he was able to be even more clear-headed and focused on his goal.

Certainly, he wasn't trying to use these talismans just because he wanted to search and understand space better though.

He knew that those old fogies would immediately jump in his search, the moment that they didn't sense him appear in about 15 to 30 seconds, and they would search each side.

So, he had to create as much distance as he could between them and himself, with this occasion, he could even search and try to comprehend space.

Life and Death laws were already useful to him, as it was precisely due to using those Laws when nobody noticed him that he was able to fight for so long and kill so many experts.

While his proficiency and comprehension in the two laws were extremely lacking, he was still able to use the Death Law in order to weaken the opponent at the moment of his attack.

And then use the Life Laws in order to increase his own recovery and stamina regeneration during the fight.

Even though his Death Law had received quite a spike after the massacre he committed inside the Nightless Stone City, the Life Law wasn't that far behind.

After all, no matter when and where he had always found enough beauties to release all his power and stamina upon so that his Life Law could advance.

His fooling around with many ladies wasn't only to satisfy himself and his lust, but also to help him advance in his cultivation and comprehension.

Well, most of it was due to his lust and desire, but still, it was a great gift to have some other benefits from it besides pleasure and satisfaction.

Now wasn't the time to think about that though as he was more focused on comprehending Space Law, which was a Primal Law just like Life and Death.

Just thinking about Space Law, one's mind would immediately direct to teleportation. Just think about the great benefits of teleportation, traveling hundreds and thousands of kilometers in one step.

Just concentrating on trying to feel the Space, Void, and the opening and closing of the space channel Eric slowly used all the Escape Talismans available to him.

Like that he slowly fell into a weird state of comprehension once again. Since this wasn't the first time he experienced enlightenment he wasn't shocked or surprised by it anymore.

In fact, it looked extremely normal to him now. Only Heaven knew how many powerhouses would react knowing that Eric was treating enlightenments just like eating three meals a day.

Eric didn't care about that in the least right now though, as all he could think about was the space, and void around him until he suddenly appeared inside the belly of a giant whale with no more escape talismans.

'Whooooooshhhhh~! Bloooooooobbbbbbbb~!'

In a matter of seconds, a stinky fishy smell awakened him from his special state, as a water wave hit him directly on the face and took Takeshiba Aika away.

It took him a few moments to understand where he was, and what he was doing there, but once he did that he immediately took action.

First things first, he quickly searched for his beauty, Takeshiba Aika. The beauty had been taken really close to the whale's discharge hole, but fortunately hadn't been thrown outside yet.

That was relieving for him, as he immediately jumped towards her. Even though he was unable to see in the darkness of the whale's stomach, he could still use his spirit sense.

"Who is there, who are you!? Where is this place!?"

Due to the cold and heavy shower, Takeshiba Aika had awakened from her unconscious state and seemed to be trying to understand where she was when she felt Eric's hands on her body.

"Calm down Aika, it's me!"

"Master!? Where are we, what happened!?"

"We are inside a whale's stomach, we are going to leave this place soon don't worry!

"What about father, and those other bastards!?"

"Don't worry, I think we are fine and have escaped from them. They shouldn't be able to find us here! Let us rest a bit in here since we don't know where we are and what awaits us outside!"

"Ok Master!"
