c5332: Chapter 5332, Remains (2)

After another 10 days, Yang Kai managed to extract the last of the turbulent flows and finally saw the exact appearance of the thing inside, and that left him baffled.

The thing in his sight was not Great Evolution Pass’ Core like he was expecting, but rather the remains of a Human cultivator.

A long time had passed since this Human had died. The corpse was riddled with wounds with its flesh having withered under the effects of the Void Turbulence

Judging by the state of the corpse before its death, the expression on its face could be considered peaceful.

Yang Kai didn’t know what Order this old man was when he was alive, but he could faintly feel residual Space Principles from his remains.

These residual Space Principles were not something left behind by the Void Turbulence, but rather they belonged to this person from the start.

In other words, this man should have cultivated the Dao of Space to some extent when he was still alive. However, after Yang Kai scanned him, he reckoned that this man should have just started cultivating the Dao of Space.

If that wasn’t the case, the man wouldn’t have remained trapped in the Void Crack and would have found a way out long ago.

It was precisely because of these faint traces of the Dao of Space left in the remains that the surrounding Void Turbulence gathered and gradually formed a sphere-like object.

Looking at the remains in front of him, Yang Kai could imagine how this person had reacted after being trapped here.

No matter what Order this person was when he was alive, it would be difficult for him to find a way out of the Void Crack. If he wanted to leave, he would have to find a pattern to the Void Turbulence.

After many years of observation and study, although he had suffered a great deal, he had finally managed to gain some insights into the Dao of Space. If he had sufficient time to continue cultivating, he might have made some progress in the Dao of Space and escaped.

Unfortunately, for various unknown reasons, his strength was completely exhausted and had no way to replenish his energy. As such, he was unable to resist the Void Turbulence and eventually died of old age or injuries.

After countless years, Yang Kai finally found him.

This scene was quite different from what he had imagined. He thought that 30,000 years ago, the soldiers of Great Evolution Pass had used the Space Array to send the Core to Wind and Cloud Pass at that critical moment, but now it seemed that it was not just a simple delivery of the Core, but someone carrying it.

There was no Great Evolution Pass Core in sight, but Yang Kai wasn’t disappointed, because if it were him, if he fled with the Core, he would not be carrying it by hand.

It must have been stored in this man’s Small Universe or Space Ring.

As the man was already dead, his Small Universe had certainly collapsed. No matter what the Small Universe had inside of it, it would have been destroyed.

Yang Kai turned his focus to the Space Ring on this man’s right hand. He bowed to the corpse before approaching it and removing the Space Ring.

When he scanned it with his Divine Sense, he discovered that all the restrictions on this Space Ring had been removed in advance. In other words, anyone who obtained this Space Ring would be able to easily retrieve its contents.

The removal of the restrictions should have been done by this Senior before his death.

Even though he was in a desperate situation and about to die, he still firmly believed that someone would someday find him and retrieve the thing he had hidden.

Thinking so, he could not leave behind any restrictions on his Space Ring, because if he did, it would only cause trouble for those who came to retrieve it in the future. If the Space Ring was destroyed while trying to remove the restrictions, its contents would be lost.

Yang Kai used his Divine Sense to investigate the contents of the Space Ring.

The large space inside was empty, which was a given as this man must have used up everything he could while he was trapped here.

Inside the Space Ring, there was only an Identity Token and a few artifacts.

What caught Yang Kai’s attention though was a sparkling, translucent white jade tree.

Yang Kai slightly furrowed his brow. He didn’t sense anything special about this white jade tree. It looked like an ornamental artifact.

[Is this Great Evolution Pass’ Core?]

[If not, where is the Core?]

He didn’t touch the small tree; after all, this place wasn’t safe. If the jade tree was really Great Evolution Pass’ Core, it wasn’t suitable to be taken out here.

Yang Kai took out the Identity Token and checked it for a moment before a sigh escaped his lips.
