Chapter 5: A technique to hide
Part 1
After returning from the ancient forest...
Adrian did not immediately continue exploring.
He returned to his room and looked at the Eternal Void Sword floating in front of him.
The sword was already a successful creation.
A weapon created by his own hands.
But Adrian quickly noticed another problem.
He could not carry everything with him.
Materials.
Refinement tools.
Future artifacts.
Important items.
Carrying them normally would only create unnecessary trouble.
A cultivator needed a place to store his possessions.
Adrian sat down.
He began studying spatial techniques.
Creating a storage space was not simple.
A normal object could not contain another space.
The structure of space itself had to be connected and stabilized.
For several days...
Adrian focused on creating his first spatial artifact.
He refined a simple ring.
The material was ordinary.
But the inside was different.
Using his spiritual energy, Adrian created a small independent space within the ring.
The space slowly stabilized.
Finally...
The artifact was completed.
"Storage Ring."
Adrian looked at the ring on his finger.
It was simple.
There was no unnecessary decoration.
But inside was a space that could hold his belongings.
His first artifact after the Eternal Void Sword was complete.
...
However...
There was still another problem.
The Eternal Void Sword allowed him to travel through the sky.
But ordinary humans could see the sky.
A person flying on a sword would create impossible chaos.
Adrian did not want unnecessary attention.
So he needed another technique.
A technique to hide.
Not a battle technique.
Not a killing technique.
A technique that allowed him to exist without being noticed.
Adrian closed his eyes.
He observed his own spiritual energy.
Every existence left traces.
Energy fluctuations.
Presence.
Movement.
Even an artifact carried a certain aura.
If those traces could be hidden...
The problem would be solved.
Days passed.
Adrian continuously adjusted the flow of his energy.
He reduced his presence.
Covered the aura of the Eternal Void Sword.
Separated his existence from ordinary perception.
Finally...
A new technique was created.
"Silent Veil."
When activated...
Adrian's aura disappeared.
The Eternal Void Sword became invisible to ordinary eyes.
The energy fluctuations around him became completely hidden.
To normal humans...
The sky would remain empty.
Nothing unusual existed.
Adrian stepped outside.
The Eternal Void Sword appeared.
He activated Silent Veil.
The sword slowly faded from sight.
But Adrian could still feel its connection.
He stepped onto the blade.
The sword rose.
Higher.
Higher.
Until the ground became distant.
The city below continued as usual.
People walked.
Cars moved.
Nobody looked toward the sky.
Nobody noticed the figure flying above the clouds.
Adrian watched the world below.
A new problem had been solved.
His path could continue without disturbing ordinary life.
But this was only the beginning.
There were still countless techniques to create.
Countless mysteries waiting ahead.
