306 The Tower Of Time And Space Part Three

Alicia felt impending danger and quickly tucked her body and rolled out of the way right as the sword ray smashed into the ground. Alicia felt a cold sweat drip down her back. She had been very close to losing her head! 

But she now had somewhat of an understanding of what to do after watching the wooden dummy do its attack. But she knew the way the dummy used the attack would not work. Luckily she had the understanding of mixing different laws into her attack. Alicia stomped her foot and thrust her sword forward. A distorted blade of wind shot forward smashing into the wooden dummy. The barrier on the dummy shook and a small sword scar formed on the wooden dummy's body.

Seeing the sword scar made Alicia smile."It seems I only need to infuse more of the law of space and time in order to make the full attack push through. Hmm, what if I did this as well."

Alicia waved her hand and multiple time and space distortions filled the room. Alicia then jumped in the air and slashed out with her sword many times creating hundreds of sword rays that were infused with the law of wind and the law of space and time. Each sword ray flew through the distortion in the air to instantly reappear behind the wooden dummies. Each one being hit by multiple sword rays. A loud rumble was heard echoing throughout the room. But Alicia did not stop there, the one hundred sword rays turned into a thousand as she continued to spin in the air slashing her sword out sending more and more sword rays through the distortion rifts. The entire time she was doing her sword dance in the air, Alicia had a smile on her face as she refined her technique. 

She could have already finished off the ten dummies but she was waiting for the allotted time to be almost up. She wanted to refine and practice this new technique she just came up with until she was comfortable using it. If one were to look at the area where the wooden dummies were, they would see thousands of sword rays appearing out of thin air slamming into them. Arms and legs were being chopped off left and right until finally the body was split down the middle. 

Alicia lightly landed on the ground with a smile on her face. "Mhm... I think I will call this technique 'One Thousand Continuum Blade' " Alicia was very happy with her progress. It was only a few hours but she was able to come up with a completely new technique that she could use at any time from a far range. This kind of technique had so much randomness to it that it was almost impossible to dodge. 

After the dust settled Alicia spotted another platform. This platform looked the same as the last. Not wanting to waste any more time, Alicia stepped on top of the platform sending her to the next floor. She looked around the room once again to find the wall of text. "For your final trial, you will put everything you have learned to practice. Enter the door to the right to begin..."

After stepping through the door the door slammed shut behind her and disappeared. Alicia was not concerned about this but more amazed as to what she was looking at. Stairs all over the place leading to and fro, from up to down. There were even stairs on the ceiling as well. It looked like something she would have seen in an old role playing game, where millions of sets of stairs would lead you around randomly, and only choosing the right path would you be able to make it through.

At this thought, Alicia frowned."I might be able to live forever as it is now, but I have people waiting for me! Having to deal with such a task now was a little much."

Alicia actually wondered how long she had even been in this tower for. She had noticed that each floor was its open space. She could tell this by the second floor and the pit of fire. There was no way the pit could have been so deep with another floor right underneath it. But this room, Alicia could already feel a headache coming on. She really couldn't understand what a maze made up of stairs and passageways had to do with time and space. Even though she couldn't understand it she still went forward and stepped on the first passage. When she did her whole surroundings changed and she found herself in an enclosed room.

"Oh?" Alicia was a bit confused as to why she was suddenly moved to another area. But she quickly found out why when a group of twenty wooden dummies appeared in the room with her. Alicia wasted no time at all as she waved her hand creating hundreds of time and space distortions. She jumped in the air and began to sending sword ray after sword ray into the distortions. 

Booming sounds could be heard as the room began to shake. In a matter of seconds, the twenty wooden dummies were nothing more than wood chips on the ground. A bright light flashed and a platform rose up from the floor. "Hmmm… Is this a trial by fire?"
