'Having a variety of abilities is one thing...'
'But developing them on demand?'
'That's outrageous.'
'It's something simply never seen or heard of before.'
'This is Nen Ability we're talking about, not grocery shopping where you can pick whatever you want!'
Ging stared intently at Moses.
His earlier comment about Moses definitely not being human was absolutely sincere, coming from the bottom of his heart.
"Is it a Space-Type Ability?"
Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Ging turned his gaze to the massive whirlpool at the center of the lake.
The shadow sphere Moses had thrown into the lake earlier was likely the material that conjures the space's entrance.
Then, as the Nen Space's entrance opened, the lake water naturally rushed into it.
This is Ging's speculation, but he still needed confirmation from Moses.
"Well, it's not fully developed yet, but it should suffice as a shelter for now."
Moses gazed at the whirlpool in the lake.
Using the Shadow World to drain the lake water was also a spur-of-the-moment idea.
Unfortunately, the entrance and exit areas are limited, otherwise, with this ability mechanism, Moses had some ideas he wanted to try.
For example, using the lake water to perform a grand Water Release Ninjutsu out of thin air.
That should make Hanzo's eyes pop out.
However, these ideas could, to some extent, bring various benefits to the Shadow World.
Nen Abilities are inherently products of imagination, and in terms of ideas and thoughts, they should not be bound or limited.
Therefore, even though the original intention of the Shadow World was to serve as a shelter, depending on how it's used, it can also serve purposes and values different from its original intent.
"…"
Ging suddenly fell silent, unsure of what to say.
Even though he was not prepared at all, with such a Nen Space shelter, he had a strong urge to follow Moses on a trip to the Dark Continent.
However, he couldn't leave, so he could only suppress the thought and silently wish Moses good luck.
Ging remained silent, and Moses also said nothing.
Suddenly, the only sound left was the roaring noise of water.
Both men silently watched as the lake's water level dropped.
After a long time, the water in this small lake was drained by the Shadow World.
The lake bottom, which was overgrown with a lot of aquatic grass and covered in mud, was revealed.
Moses scanned the bottom of the lake, following the increasingly strong presence, and quickly locked onto the location.
It was a spot near the center of the lake, free of aquatic grass but covered in a large amount of black-gray mud.
"Follow me."
Before confirming, Moses wasn't sure what this presence represented, so he jumped to the bottom of the lake and asked Ging to follow.
Ging followed closely and also jumped into the lake.
Soon, the two arrived at the spot piled with a large amount of mud.
"Can you 'sense' the exact location?"
Seeing Moses's target so clearly defined, Ging finally couldn't help but ask.
Moses glanced at Ging, then thinking there's no need to hide this matter, he nodded and said, "I can sense a presence, but I'm not sure what it is. Anyway... let's clear this mud first."
"Alright."
There was a strange look in Ging's eyes as he nodded in agreement.
What he had seen and heard today truly broadened his horizons.
Moses stood on a clump of aquatic grass, his Aura slightly intensifying.
[Soul Echo]
As the Aura surged, a unit of shadow clone was conjured out of thin air.
This way, he wouldn't have to do the work himself.
Moses smiled slightly and controlled his shadow clone to shovel the mud.
But he quickly realized the efficiency was mediocre, and letting the shadow clone shovel the mud could not guarantee that he would not inadvertently trigger this presence.
"Wait a moment, I'll call someone."
Moses didn't want to waste time, so he directly took out his phone to call Shizuku.
Hearing this, Ging temporarily halted his thoughts of shoveling mud.
The call was quickly connected.
Moses explained the situation to Shizuku and then sent her the location.
Moments later.
Shizuku arrived at the scene at an extremely fast speed.
"Blinky!"
As her Aura surged, Shizuku conjured Blinky and issued an order: "Suck up all this mud."
"Chirp!"
Upon receiving the command, Blinky's eyes spun wildly, then it opened its mouth, generating a powerful suction force that swept the large amount of mud from the lakebed into its mouth.
Gurgle-
The mud seemed to taste awful.
Blinky's eyes spun rapidly, as if it was enduring some unpleasant smell, but it still dutifully ramped up its efforts.
Under Blinky's high-powered operation, the mud at the bottom of the lake was quickly cleaned up.
Most of the time, it is more convenient to use Nen Ability.
Moses and Ging, who is watching from the side, couldn't help but think the same thing.
As the large amount of mud disappeared, the depth of the lakebed dropped by more than a meter, revealing a large area of blue stone slabs.
On the surface of the stone bricks, there are lines as thick as an adult's arm engraved, which seem to be arranged in a regular pattern and spread across every slab in sight.
Seeing these oversized patterns, Moses and Ging exchanged glances.
These large patterns on the blue stone slabs were likely the core of the entire ancient Teleportation Divine Script.
"Give me half a day."
Ging carefully approached the ancient Divine Script and began his research.
As long as he could figure out the structure and patterns of this ancient Divine Script, it would be easier to locate the cores of other ancient Divine Scripts.
In order not to delay Moses's departure to the Dark Continent, he only gave himself half a day for research.
Seeing Ging start to delve into the ancient Divine Script, Moses signaled Shizuku with his eyes to retreat from the bottom of the lake with him, leaving Ging a quiet environment.
Back on the shore, Shizuku asked, "Is this it?"
"I guess so."
Moses glanced back at Ging.
He came here to assist Ging in finding the core of the ancient Teleportation Divine Script, and now, he just had to wait for Ging to thoroughly study this ancient Divine Script.
At that point, under Ging's arrangement, they will be able to use the Teleportation Ability of this ancient Divine Script to go directly to the other end of the Pipeline.
Moses had thought that he might have to spend many days here, but he didn't expect that he could actually sense the location of the core.
He doesn't know if it's his innate ability, or a special ability of his Post-Mortem Body...
Perhaps after arriving in the Dark Continent, I will be able to rely on this ability to sense the ancient Divine Script remaining in various places in the Dark Continent.
Thinking in this way, this kind of talent-like ability may be helpful in their upcoming journey to the Dark Continent.
Shizuku also followed Moses's gaze to Ging, who was studying the Divine Script at the bottom of the lake, and softly said, "So are we about to set off?"
"If Ging can finish within half a day, then we'll set off around dinner time."
Moses roughly calculated the time.
In fact, given the harsh environment of the Dark Continent, it is irrational to set out at night.
But no one knows how long it will take to 'flow' to the other end after entering the Pipeline...
Moreover, the Six Continents need to deal with the potential threats posed by these Pipelines as quickly as possible, so naturally, there's no way to choose the departure time.
So, whenever they can set off, they will.
