Eye System

Chapter 180: Final Preparation

{Ding, the system would recommend the host not to spend more than a day at a time within your Portable Sub-Dimension, otherwise, the host's Spacial Mark may not be able to sustain itself and the host might not be able to return to the space the host was in} advised the system.

With that in mind, Lex knew that he had to be careful and not become too complacent or reliant on his Portable Sub-Dimension to hide when in a dire situation, that didn't give him another choice.

{Ding, the host can sustain 3 Spacial Marks at once and the host can travel between them as the host pleases, as long as the host has enough energy. The longer the distance between them, the more energy required} stated the system.

Lex was overjoyed by that revelation, and it also gave him many ideas for different skills and techniques that he could develop.

"This must be the way that Ella was able to teleport to where I was, and she must have left a Spacial Mark on me" realised Lex.

"If I left a Spacial Mark on Angela and Ella I wouldn't have to worry about their safety and could teleport to them whenever I needed to" mumbled Lex to himself.

{Ding, that would not be possible as the host's Spacial Marks can currently only stay intact for at most a week if the host is within the same space as the mark, and if the host is in a different space, such as his Portable Sub-Dimension, then it will only stay intact for a day or slightly longer than that at most} stated the system.

It was still quite a long time, but not long enough for him to be satisfied with its capability.

{Ding, also to warn the host, if a Spacial Element user comes across your Spacial Mark, they would most likely be able to destroy it and the host would have been able to sense it on his own body previously if he was more attentive} warned the system.

Lex noted down everything that the system was telling himself and knew that he had to be careful when it came to using profound laws and abilities, especially with the Spacial Element, which was very hard to understand and control.

[So, what is the exact current size of this land and how much can I increase it by] asked Lex.

He was interested in growing his Portable Sub-Dimension as much as he could, to not only make a large more suitable place for the fox beasts to live in, but also to be able to do more things on it.

{Ding, currently the hosts land has a 1-kilometre diameter and is 100 metres deep. The host can increase it by providing it or energy either by cultivating it in a similar way that the host would cultivate his Elemental Body, which would require the host to absorb energy and stream it into the Portable Sub-Dimension, or by the host providing it resources that have energy. The host can grow the piece of land until it has a diameter of 10 kilometres, but after that, the host must breakthrough to the next realm to be able to increase its size. This is because despite the host maybe having the capability to increase its size, the host's body won't be able to withstand the control over the Portable Sub-Dimension and all the energy would go to waste and float into the endless void} answered the system thoroughly.

With that in mind, Lex felt confident in his ability to use his Portable Sub-Dimension and after entering and leaving a few times to get used to the sensation, Lex felt that he was ready to take his fox beasts into his Portable Sub-Dimension.

The fox beasts watching Lex disappear and reappear out of thin air were amazed and all grouped around to watch the show, as Lex called all the fox beasts in for an announcement.

"From now onwards your home will be another space that belongs only to you fox beasts. You can stay there and return here when you need to and will need to collect as many beast cores and beast meat as possible to grow your land and sustain yourselves" announced Lex.

After giving the fox beasts time to understand and digest the information, with the help of the few fox beasts that understood Lex the most, he continued.

"The space is quite small now and it might be quite crowded, but we can grow it in no time with enough beast cores" stated Lex optimistically.

The fox beasts all howled excitedly, and despite not understanding what Lex meant by their own space, they wanted someplace to call home after leaving behind the Underground Coves.

Lex had to send in the fox beasts in groups of 100, which was roughly the size of each Unit, as it was the easiest way to do so until he increased his energy and skill in the use of the Spacial Eye.

Each time he did so, he would enter the Portable Sub-Dimension with the Unit. He would explain to them that they shouldn't attempt to break the barrier around the plot of land, otherwise they would die, and that the more beast cores they collected, the larger the place would become.

After that, he would take them back out of the Portable Sub-Dimension and send them with their Unit Leader to hunt in the Underground Coves or nearby areas on the surface.

They were completely safe on the surface, if there weren't any Golden Mortal beings, and Lex wasn't worried about them being hurt by a human, but was more worried for the human if they attempted to go against the fox beasts.

Repeating the process 5 times for each of the units, taking a break between each time as not to increase the strain on his eyes that were yet to fully recover, Lex had given a task for his fox beasts to gather as many beast cores and as much beast meat as they could.

While they did that, Lex continued cultivating, not wanting to waste the roughly 2 weeks that he had left, as he also made sure to practice his skills and recover his eyes, which were his main source of power, to their peak state.
