The core of the formation was situated at the center of the plains. The formation here left Soren helpless. While the outer formation acted only as a supplement, it was not something James could resist.
Soren started giving pointers to James. James sat in a lotus position before the core formation, wanting to comprehend and sense it.
Under Soren’s guidance, he very quickly understood the mechanisms of the outer formation. He cultivated seriously for a long time within the Time formation. But in the outer realm, only 500 years had passed.
After 500 years, James stood up and said, “I’ve understood it fully. Now, I can open up the outer formation silently and leave. But before I do so, I still want the Blithe Omniscience.”
James was hungry for the Blithe Omniscience. This was a supernatural art that complemented the Omniscience Path. Once mastered, his combat power would increase exponentially.
“No way,” Soren rejected the request. If the Omniscience Path was what James only had, Soren would believe that James was human, but he had the unique power of the Dooms within him—Chaos Power. He would not recklessly hand over the Blithe Omniscience to just anyone.
It left James helpless.
“I’ll make a move then. I’ll return once I get the ten keys.”
James clasped his fist into his palm, signaling his departure to Soren. Then, he flew away and disappeared from the plains with a flicker. The plains became eerily silent following James’ departure. The formation made up of the inscriptions also silently vanished into the void as if it never existed.
James opened up the formation silently, appearing outside of it. This was the Cloud Race’s base camp.
The Cloud Race was one of the Greater Realms' Ten Great Races until their fall in the war in the Primordial Realm. Only a heavily injured powerful figure remained. Since then, he had been in hiding and had never shown up for a long time. This caused the Cloud Race to drop out of the Ten Great Races.
James walked into the restricted area of the Cloud Race. He knew that this was the region of the Cloud Race from Soren, who also told him about other things regarding the outer realm.
There was only one Acmean among the Cloud Race, but this figure was in hiding and had not appeared for quite some time. Regardless, there were still a number of figures among the Cloud Race who were almost as powerful as Acmeans.
James was in deep thought as he walked through the restricted area. Should he try to get the key that belonged to the Cloud Race by living among them?
After a short while, he suddenly sensed the aura of the Cloud Race. He disappeared into the void.
A patrol team appeared very soon. The team was made of around a dozen disciples of the Cloud Race who looked young. Yet, they were all very powerful and were Seven or Eight-Power Macrocosm Ancestral Gods.
James hid until the team left. Seeing their departure, he hid his aura and allowed his body to go into invisible mode.
