Chapter 178: Chapter 171: Yeah, What a Pity (2)

“Hmm?” Seeing Lor suddenly vanish from where he stood, Jerald slightly furrowed his brow.

Wasn’t it agreed not to use Space Traveling Witchcraft?

Could it be that the young one has already backed out before the duel starts?

“No, that’s not right. The space fluctuation just now didn’t seem the same as when he uses Space Jumping Witchcraft.” Although it appeared silent and unnoticed, Jerald still keenly noticed the difference.

Besides, he also had the feeling of being watched.

Currently, in the Wizard World, no one else could achieve this except Lor.

“Could he have gone to the Divine Realm Spatial Layer?” Jerald speculated in his heart, just about to forcefully shatter space to head to the Divine Realm Layer.

The next moment, a Fireball with a power level roughly at the Fourth Ring suddenly leaped out from the void and bombarded the surface of his Water Element Domain.

“Sizzle—”

As soon as the Fireball Technique landed on the surface of the Water Element Domain, it was extinguished by the vast and boundless Power of Water Element.

In terms of damage, there was naturally none at all.

However, the insult was fully maximized.

Jerald’s eyelid twitched, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

If Lor could freely traverse between the Divine Realm Layer Space and the surface space and could lock him down for an attack, as long as he slightly manipulated the distance, it seemed he couldn’t even retaliate.

“It shouldn’t be so exaggerated. Even for a Spatial Mage, it should take some time to traverse different spaces.” Jerald comforted himself while controlling the water element within the domain to gather into tens of thousands of water streams.

“Swish—”

Tens of thousands of water streams nearly formed instantly, stirring space at Jerald’s will.

“Crack—”

The surface space was instantly shattered amidst the stirring of the water streams, and Jerald successfully stepped into the Divine Realm Space.

“Sizzle—”

At this moment, another Fireball Technique suddenly landed on the surface of the Water Element Domain, only to be extinguished again by the vast and boundless Power of Water Element.

Jerald: “…”

He ignored the nearly provocative fireball, surveying the surroundings, only to find something worse than he had previously imagined with Lor freely traveling between layers of Divine Realm Space and surface space.

That was, Lor was not in either of these two layers of space.

Otherwise, at the instant he broke space, he definitely would have captured Lor’s figure.

“Can he already stand in the ’deep layer’ space now?” A surge of unspeakable shock rose in Jerald’s heart.

In his previous assumptions, no matter how powerful the Space Wizard Faction is, it would take a Five-Ring Wizard to explore the mysteries of the Deep Layer Space.

After all, even these Five-Ring Wizards, despite striking space with full force, couldn’t maintain the revelation of Deep Layer Space for long.

Simply put, this skill Lor showcased seemed enough to ensure his safety?

Should they just let it be?

“Sizzle—”

Just as Jerald hesitated, another Fireball Technique suddenly landed on the surface of the Water Element Domain, only to be extinguished again by the vast and boundless Power of Water Element.

This one directly roused his anger.

Deep Layer Space, it’s not as if it can’t be broken; if he doesn’t give that kid a straightforward hit, he won’t be satisfied.

In the Distanceless Spatial Layer, Lor’s lips slightly curled up, once again flicking his fingers to send a Fireball Technique out along with the positioning.

This was just a combat experiment; he wasn’t planning to go all out.

If he used the Great Meteor Technique, it wouldn’t be good if he unintentionally harmed Speaker Jerald’s origin.

While the origin can be replenished, the wear and tear on the Origin Container cannot be restored.

The purpose of this battle was ultimately just to prove to Jerald that he had self-preservation ability.

“I suppose Speaker Jerald’s emotions aren’t too great right now?” Lor thought back to Jerald’s confident demeanor before departure, finding it amusing.

Just as Lor prepared to release another Fireball Technique, he suddenly noticed a slight distortion in the space 130,000 miles ahead.

“Crack—”

Soon after, the space shattered with a loud bang, a part of the blue spatial domain probing into the Distanceless Spatial Layer, vanishing again in an instant.

“Simply breaking the Distanceless Spatial Layer doesn’t work.”

Lor slightly shook his head, mused in his heart, “Any attack entering the Distanceless Spatial Layer will instantly have its distance twisted unless guided by spatial positioning.”

“Unless by extreme coincidence, otherwise merely seeing me is a distant hope, let alone attacking me.”

“The only pity is that I can’t sense what exactly Speaker Jerald is doing; I can only rely on spatial markers to vaguely sense his position.”

The obstruction from the Distanceless Spatial Layer is bidirectional; if not, Lor wouldn’t need to cast Space Jumping Witchcraft again.

Simply revealing the Elemental True Body form and taking a step forward would take him wherever he wished to go.

Moreover, his witchcraft can’t ignore distance to directly attack the marked points in the Surface Space and Divine Realm Layer Space, only able to target those within fifteen thousand miles of shallow space.

Since his perception hasn’t been twisted and assimilated by the Distanceless Spatial Layer, there is a specific range, naturally unable to possess the traits of ignoring distance in the Distanceless Spatial Layer.

While pondering in his mind, Lor kept his hands busy, flicking another Fireball Technique.

This wasn’t a provocation, just a simple desire to see what else Speaker Jerald could come up with.

“Crack—”

Soon the Distanceless Spatial Layer shattered once more, this time the blue domain probing position was beyond Lor’s perception range.

Even for Lor, he only sensed Jerald’s action because the spatial mark attached to the domain became slightly clearer.

Three times…

Five times…

After Jerald shattered the Distanceless Spatial Layer ten times, Lor suddenly found the spatial mark he left on Jerald’s domain was rapidly moving away.

“Oh, did he give up already?” Lor was a bit surprised; he looked at the newly coalesced fireball in his hand, hesitated for a moment, then dispersed it.

When he sensed Jerald had retreated beyond 100,000 miles, he naturally stepped out from the Distanceless Spatial Layer to the surface space.

Upon reaching surface space, Lor’s dispersed perception immediately clearly sensed a special crystal water droplet flying towards the Milton Continent without looking back, 110,000 miles away.

“Speaker Jerald, does this mean our combat experiment is concluded?” Lor asked through perception transmission.

Upon hearing Lor’s transmission, the water droplet that had flown into the Milton Continent paused momentarily in place, stayed for four or five seconds, then finally transformed into Jerald’s form.

“Legislator Lor, is your perception range beyond 100,000 miles?” Jerald looked toward Lor’s direction, without hastily answering Lor’s question, eagerly countered with his own.

Due to his limited perception range, Jerald couldn’t transmit sound, only passively listened to Lor’s transmission before speaking aloud for communication.

“Yes, my perception range is 150,000 miles.”

Lor slowly transmitted the explanation: “Actually, it’s quite normal; when I was at the Third Ring, I could perceive nearly 20,000 miles range.”

“Now at the Fourth Ring, it’s merely 150,000 miles, not only no progress but a regression, alas~”

At the end, he regrettably sighed.

The Great Meteor Technique has already reached its limit; to further enhance it, fusion is the only way.

To create an offensive space witchcraft that fuses with the Great Meteor Technique, one must first find a suitable space construction rune and an offensive space basic rune.

Achieving these tasks in a short time is simply out of the question.

“150,000 miles…only…” Jerald’s mouth twitched, feeling this kid was really asking for a beating.

Sadly, he couldn’t beat him now or in the future.

“The experiment is over; you performed well, sufficient to ensure your survival in the Abyss.”

Jerald took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the emotions tumultuous within, responding calmly to Lor’s previous question: “I estimate the banquet is about ready; during it, I’ll tell you the current specific situation on the Abyss and notify the other legislators.”

“Moreover, just now, I discovered something very regretful.”

He stopped mid-sentence at the end.

Lor knew he was waiting for him to ask, and indeed was curious about what he was hinting at, immediately transmitting curiosity-question: “What regretful thing?”

“I accidentally destroyed the Memory Pearl I had made earlier due to the impact during the domain outburst. What a pity,” Jerald sighed, pretending to be regretful.

“Yes, truly a pity,” Lor transmitted back meaningfully.
