Chapter 1846 Hyperspace

Jack continued to stay in his incorporeal state and monitored the spaces. The interval never shortened. It was never more than a minute before the spaces changed places. He would need extreme speed to cover the distance in that short interval. A speed that he didn't possess even with his high dexterity stat.

Jack lost track of time as he monitored the spaces. He finally decided to return to his body after he felt his link with his physical self getting weakened. When he was about to enter his body, he experienced a strange sensation.

'Hm...?'

Since he entered the incorporeal state, he had sensed this place to be unusual. This place was unlike the outside world. He accommodated that sensation to this place's special structures of having the multiple compartment spaces that kept on moving around. Now that he had averted his attention from those compartment spaces, he noticed that strange sensation had nothing to do with them.

He stopped and honed his senses on this strange sensation. 'This... There is another layer of space... It was hidden!'

Jack couldn't spend much time examining this finding. His consciousness had to return to his body.

It would be some time before he could do the incorporeal state again. He focused his mana sense to detect the irregularity he had just found.

His mana sense might not be as enhanced as during his incorporeal state, but after being aware of the secret layer, he could subtly sense its existence. It was very faint, though. He was as if trying to grasp the air.

He didn't give up. He had no other clues, after all. He believed this extra layer of space to be significant. It could be the key to pass this trial.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

He spent hours trying to lock onto this secret layer of space without much luck. When he felt he had rested enough, he reentered the incorporeal state. In that state, the secret layer felt much more tangible. He no longer spared his attention to track Elder Maniac's presence. Instead, he focused his attention on this extra layer of space.

Now, he just needed to familiarize himself to form the wormhole fast enough before Elder Maniac changed positions.

He no longer needed to enter the incorporeal state. When he interacted with the hyperspace, he could shrink the space enough so everything was within his mana sense's scope. Since the hyperspace was parallel to the real space, Elder Maniac's presence was now also within his mana sense's range.

He spent what he thought to be half a day to practice. After he had the required speed, he homed in his mana sense on

Elder Maniac's presence. He waited until the elder changed positions. He then went to work.

He formed the wormhole between his position and the Elder Maniac's. He then stepped into this wormhole.

He came back out into the normal space, and Elder Maniac was right next to him. The elder looked at him with a flat face, but Jack could see the glint of surprise in the elder's eyes.

"Well done," The elder said. "You learned much faster than I expected. Perhaps my hope wasn't wrongly placed."

"Hehe. So, do I pass?" Jack asked with a grin.

Elder Maniac answered by sitting cross-legged on the ground.

"Hit me," he said.
