Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master



William knew not everything in the world could be detected using spirit sense. And from the look of it, it seemed like there was a toxin spreading in the air, lining up the region here and preventing anyone from escaping.

"If that's the case… Then where will be the right path out?" William got more puzzled when he thought about all of this.

If it was some sort of nasty toxin, then it was safe to assume that it spread all over the region, tightly surrounding it, suffocating all the masters inside.

William stood in his place for hours, checking the entire region using his spirit sense. Aside from the domed academy, the weird thing he found before, the city and his guild forces who stood motionless all this time, there was nothing worthy of mention except for tons of dark masters.

The Nightmare monster was cruel and didn't spare a single one of them from this hallucination. They stood the same as the normal masters, not moving a muscle for a long time.

William knew that his way to wake up his people wasn't going to differentiate between a dark or a normal master. But he didn't care about any of that.

Right now, he was trying to see what he missed. The black fox spoke about a single way out, and right now William couldn't see any way out from here.

Thinking about it didn't help at all. William decided to spread the puzzlement over others when they got awakened.

For now, he just needed to wait for them to wake up. And during this time, he kept making new formations using high sources of spirit power treasures given to him by the four leaders.

The leader of any seasoned and old force or family wasn't someone to be underestimated. William got to see this fact when he saw the lots of treasures brought up by these four.

Using these things, he managed to make twenty more formations. He didn't just make spirit power generation ones, and also made five more of the toxin spreading formations.

These four also got their share from the toxin, and that helped in adding more resources for William to use.

After ten more hours, and with the help of all these formations, effects started to appear at last.

William saw using his spirit sense the early signs of masters waking up. It first happened to the close by forces at the two sides near here. Then it spread over to cover the spread-out dark masters in the entire area, before finally arriving at the last border zone.

The masters, be it normal or dark ones, once awakened started to attack each other in frenzy. William gave them five hours before he finally heard voices he missed for a long time.

"Just calm down," William held many Bullets right now in both hands, speaking directly towards many leaders and his friends, "this is what happened…"

He started to tell them the details of what happened and didn't forget to add the puzzlement at the end of his long speech, "... Like this we are entrapped here, can't advance, and can't retreat. We need to first test the use of the portals. If it works, then we'll risk crossing the area and distribute more portals to the other sides. But if it fails, then we have to solve this problem…"

[Why do I feel like you don't trust my family's portals will work?] Lara said in doubt, before adding, [Let me try. I can't believe anything can stop my portals!]

She guessed it right, William had little hope in her portals to work. But he still held a faint glimmer of hope that it might work.

But if the enemy took all this time and trouble to make sure they wouldn't leave, and with the hidden hints from the black fox, William didn't believe that would happen.

And soon enough, Lara returned with bad news.

[The moment I sat a portal core on the ground, something stirred up and the sky dimmed and changed. Then a thick bolt of lightning descended and fried that core into nothing! How the hell did that happen?]

"I frankly don't know," William knew she needed a good hug right now rather than reasonable discussion and complicated explanation.

He knew what caused such an effect, another formation that came from the outer world. It was meant to not seal space but keep it tight and intact. Once anything tried to stir space up or affect it, then this formation would move and work to fry it down using lightning.

Nothing could stop it but a group of formations that William knew about but couldn't do right now. It was the issue of lacking materials, besides there was no point in doing this. William was sure once they solved this mystery, another one would pop up and foil their attempts to leave using portals.

"Let's think then about how to get out from here," William directed their attention towards solving this problem, "we tried sending people out at our side and failed. So, try the same at your side and let's share the results."

[How about we dig tunnels underground?] Stark paused, [We got lots of bases that we cleared, and all of them are built underground]

"Ok, let's try this as well, let's try everything…" William paused before asking, "by the way, how is Zin doing? I didn't receive anything from him."

[He and a few of the pinnacle grade masters are still in that weird status] one of the leaders said, and that made William sigh.

"Surround them with defensive and entrapping arrays then," the last thing he'd want to see was for these scary folks to go berserk and kill everyone around, "and make sure to pull enough and safe distance from them."

This was what William could do for now. As for the formations he made here, he already told others about the right way to make them.
