Sivan finally opened his eyes as his pain is completely gone.
He couldn't feel his right arm and felt a bit shocked and anxious, but only after he felt how strong his body is and how powerful he felt, did he realize that the process is a success.
He finally changed his body and then came what happened in the last second.
Sam left a residual soul fragment and the Ghost Chimera in the duplicate at the last moment before his departure. The Soul fragment had the commands and the Ghost Chimera possessed the duplicate which is the original resident of the body even though it is a duplicate, managed to easily use the body in the moment that Sivan is trying to take over.
This unexpected and bold resistance caused Sivan to unable to focus and the Void Hopper bloodline activated. The first thing it did is, send his friends and the rest of the teammates home while the bloodline technique, Spatial transfer was used to send Sam who is already in Sivan's body away to a distant unknown location.
This Void Hopper's ability doesn't seem special, but it can actually send anything to some unknown place and even if a person with a stronger cultivation ability was caught off guard without any chance to evade and has no idea whatsoever on how to resist the spatial energy, he would still be sent away.
Sam made the old body use the technique on the new body so that he could disappear from that spot.
There is no way, he is staying here after the transfer. He would definitely be getting his body back, but there would definitely be consequences for the organization behind Sivan. So, he took the chance to getaway.
Butler Si ran to Sivan and asked.
"Young master, are you okay?"
"I am fine Butler Si. But where is that guy?" Sivan asked with a hint of anger in his tone. He finally understood why Sam apologized out of the blue while giving advice to him. He successfully fooled everyone and Sivan mostly.
He was actually trapped with over a dozen Astral Plane Consummate cultivators surrounding him and his team and even the team's strongest is unable to take down one of these twelve people.
But not only did he manage to send all his teammates away, he also made him sign the document making him even responsible for the protection of the organization and everyone who belonged to it which also includes Sam's team, but he also disappeared from the spot.
This is the biggest slap in the face.
Even though Sam gave up his body in the process, he looked like the winner.
On the other hand, Dayus is terrified. There are two things he observed in this situation. The first one is that Sam escaped from the spot when every one of them was sure that he would barely survive or be dead and the other thing is the one moment before Sam escaped.
He felt some kind of invisible force around and within him and he felt so slow. In fact, he couldn't even finish the thought that he was slow for a moment, but Sam's body and Sivan's body, the two people that are within the influence of the bloodline art didn't have this effect, in fact, they looked faster than ever.
That palm strike was not even visible to them and so is the disappearance. It happened so fast. It is faster than the lightning strike and that comparison is not metaphorical.
But Sivan who is within the art range didn't feel anything. He felt like everything went at a normal pace.
He stood up and took some medicine Butler Si gave him and felt better than ever as his arm regrew.
He started throwing punches in the air as he felt stronger than ever. He closed his eyes and looked into the sea of consciousness. Sam's soul is locked up inside the body of the Ghost Chimera.
The Chimera has dozens of heads protruding out of it as it looked at Sivan's sea of consciousness hungrily, but they didn't move. Sam's command is to guard the body at all times, they would only go for the meal when the sea of consciousness attacked.
He knew that cracking the dormant soul is not going to be easy. In fact, it is a hundred or a thousand times more difficult. If he attacked the chimera and triggered its fear, it would take over the dormant soul and forcefully clash with him.
And if he lost, Sam's dormant soul would be forcefully activated sooner and since it is the natural host of the body since the beginning, it would fit right in without any problem.
He couldn't help but smile as he thought of how Sam did all of this.
He had perfect planning for six months. He destroyed a city and killed everyone in that to set up a plan. But Sam outsmarted everyone else.
His subordinates came to take care of him as they started their journey back to their home and Dayus was forced to tag along. None of the subordinates bothered to discuss the small lapse of time they experienced at that moment.
They all only cared about the success of their young master. But Butler Si had different thoughts.
"Young master, should I arrange a team to find Sam?"
"No need."
"But he has your face. If he does anything serious…"
"Let him do it. I want to see what he can do with that fragile and crippled body."
Meanwhile.
Somewhere far away. Many realms away from the that City of Desert. In a large snow plain, Sam woke up with a dizzy head.
He looked at the surroundings in surprise. He didn't expect to wake up in a snow plain. Of course, he didn't expect the exact location anyway, but the snow plain is the last thing on his mind.
He opened his eyes and took a look at his body once again. He really wished that all of this that happened could be a dream and it would all be gone once he woke up.
But he knew for sure that this is not a dream.
And there is one thing that made him curious more than the place surrounding him.
The bloodline art he used.
The void hopper is a space elemental beast and Sam knew the working of the Bloodline art and it is definitely not supposed to be like this.
This Spatial transfer art should only be sending the target to somewhere random. But Sam has half a mind that his first attempt would fail because of Butler Si's interference because that guy is also a space element cultivator and he is way stronger than Sam.
He really thought that he would be stopped and even had a backup plan ready with the second bloodline technique of the Void hopper.
But for some reason, Butler Si wasn't able to react at all.
Sam noticed that his movements became particularly slow. Even his energy waves were released slowly and same with all the other subordinates that wanted to make a move.
He felt that he caught on to something regarding this void hopper and if he was in his original body, he would have definitely started doing some tests, but now it is not possible.
He looked for the spatial rings and checked the items inside. He was surprised by what he saw. There are no weapons, whatsoever. All it was filled with are a bunch of transference scrolls, a couple of wheelchairs that don't have any special features except for some extra comfort and some crutches. Apart from that, there are some pills that could heal and alleviate pain, some recovery potions, that is all.
Sam was relieved to find out the crutches at least and decided to make a move.
He slowly stood up and started walking. He has a lot to do and he should be doing it as fast as he can. But before all of that, he also needs to find the place he was currently in.
These are the two sides of this scenario, the third side which completes the story is the side of Sam's friends and subordinates.
Currently, all of them are still in the forest outside the desert.
Everyone is gloomy. Philip who got that small piece of soul fragment in his head is currently meditating as he tried to absorb all the contents of the fragment. It is actually a bunch of instructions left behind by Sam, along with the blueprints and stuff.
After he was done, he looked at them and said.
"Arkiv, Sam asked us to help you in the game from here on out. The deal will be the same. The team will come with you and Jack will accompany you instead of Sam. You can take charge of the planning if you want or they will do it for you. I think you can figure out how to proceed.
He insisted that you don't stop this."
He then turned to the rest of the team and said.
"You guys will be finishing an organization and then you need to come to the headquarters, but in process, you need to capture the cultivators. So, use this."
With that, he gave out the large ice divine dimension
He finally turned to Watt and said.
"We have something else to do. So, we are going home."
