Long Chen took a deep breath as he stood up. Since he was sitting all this while, he was starting to feel lazy.
He stretched his arms, giving so exercise to his numb body. He took a deep breath. "I am ready."
"Good. Then go ahead. If you can master the entire Chaos, then you will be able to achieve many things. However, even if you learn a fraction of it, destroying this small space should be easy for you. Show what you learned."
"Because no matter what, you'll be leaving this reason. What matters is if you'll be able to leave with your own abilities or if I'll have to force you out after you fail," the old man inford Long Chen, who was already pretty concerned about it.
Even though he had grasped so of it, it was going to be his first ti to utilize this ability. Success or failure, everything depended on the next few minutes.
He rubbed both his hands, creating so warmth before separating his hands.
He started utilizing his law of space to give him a slight advantage in execution. His eyes turned pure while. The space started cracking around him.
The old man smiled, seeing the execution.
Long Chen clapped once with his hands. It looked like a normal clap, but there were many mysteries that went into the clap. Right after the clap, heavy winds flew everywhere. Wherever the winds went, the space kept getting destroyed.
The winds didn't stop either. The more they traveled, the more intense they beca, until the entire realm was destroyed.
Long Chen found himself standing in a different space, which didn't have any islands.
"So I was kept in a space inside a space. I destroyed one, but there is this left we well," Long Chen muttered.
"You're wrong. You were inside a space that was reinforced three tis. So I guess you can say that you were in a space which was inside a space which itself was inside another space," the old man answered.
"So I need to destroy it again? Two more to go?" Long Chen asked.
The old man smiled, shaking his head. "You don't have to. One was enough. If you destroyed one, I doubt you can't destroy another. I'm actually surprised you managed to achieve it so fast."
"But then again, you had an advantage that no other person had before you. You comprehended the law of space, after all. It complents Spatial Chaos a bit too well. So, in essence, it's a bit like cheating. Since you didn't actually use your Comprehension, but I'll let it slide." The old man started laughing.
"Congratulations, young man. You beca the first person to pass the trial and beco a Disciple of this old man. Well, whatever soul remnant is left of this man, I guess," the old man rubbed his chin.
"So you'll help get out of the prison?" Long Chen asked.
"I won't," the old man smiled. "In fact, I'll send you back to the prison."
"Nonsense! You said I'll escape if I pass the test? You'll send back? What scam is this?"
"It's not a scam. I told you that you wouldn't need my help to escape after we're done. And I'll stick to that. You're my Disciple now. By the ti we're done, you'll be capable of leaving the prison, and no one will be able to stop you," the old man replied.
"You an you'll help get stronger?"
" You're my Disciple. The person who'll take my na forward. Who will this old man help if not you?" The man laughed.
"Wait a minute. You yourself weren't able to escape this person until the Emperor let you leave. How can you make strong enough to leave?" Long Chen asked, staring at the man suspiciously.
"Who told you I wasn't able to escape without His Majesty freeing ? There's a difference between not being able to and not willing to." The old man folded his arms proudly.
"Are you trying to say that you could, and you didn't?" Long Chen asked, frowning.
"That's correct. I was the subject of His Majesty. Even if I was able to leave, I didn't, as that would've been like insulting his commands. Even though he didn't do any favours by sending here, I still couldn't disrespect the Royal Commands. I am a patriot after all," the old man laughed.
'Not a patriot but a stupid, I would say,' Long Chen thought. 'First, that guy who didn't want to kill the lady that accused him falsely and sent him here. And now him, who spent his life in prison even though he didn't need to? Is everyone in the Heavenly Realm like this?'
"Young man, It's not good to call your master stupid." The old man glared at Long Chen, hearing his thoughts.
"I..."
"No need to justify yourself. Just keep control of your words next ti if you don't want to be punished for disrespecting your masters."
"I will keep that in mind." Long Chen nodded.
"Good. Now let tell you the advantages you'll get as my Disciple. I'm sure this is the part you'll like..." The old man smiled.
"The first advantage, you'll get all the Cultivation Enhancent Items that I've collected in this prison. Your cultivation will grow pretty fast. And you desperately need that since you're actually pathetically weak in cultivation."
"I an, honestly. Any random teenager in the Heavenly Realm can mop the floor with you. I can't let that weak self of yours go out."
"Advantage number two... I'll teach you all the skills that I know, and I'll help you master them. You'll also be able to practice them here. I can also conjure powerful enemies like you faced in the trial. You can have live experience."
"Moreover, I won't just teach my skills, but also the skills that I didn't comprehend myself but I think would be suitable for you."
"Moreover, I'll also give you a reward before letting you leave. But that's for the latter. There are more minor things, but I'll tell you when we get there. So, are you prepared?" The old man asked.
'I... Can I ask you one thing? How long do you think I'll have to stay here? That all sounds like sothing which will take a long ti. So how long are we talking about?"
"Ti? A couple of thousand years, I think," the old man replied.
"Thousand years? I'm not even thirty yet, and you want to spend a thousand years here?" Long Chen exclaid, almost shouting.
