After more than a month and nearly a hundred simulations, Zhao Cheng's size within the gray space had continued to expand because of the fire, steadily narrowing the gap between himself and the gigantic monster.
Yet his greatest gain during this process was not that. Rather, as he deeply dissected the structure of this special instance and the system within it, his Third State became ever more complete.
Witch Civilization was a civilization where the mind triumphed over matter. This was displayed to the fullest in Witch Kaleidoscope, a world created after the fact.
The source of a witch's power was nothing else but the mind and the self. These two powers formed a closed loop; if one broke through the heavenly barrier, one could come into contact with the true path of witches.
But only come into contact with it. The complete system of Witch Civilization could never be so simple.
From what Zhao Cheng knew, Witch Civilization was a civilization that had touched Eternity. Though he did not know just how lofty Eternity was, it was certainly unimaginably high. Even in the multiverse, it would surely rank among the overlord-class powers.
The fragment of Witch Civilization's mysteries displayed by this Witch Kaleidoscope instance, in Zhao Cheng's eyes, was closer to one of the foundational components for constructing a higher-dimensional form.
If he had to force an analogy, then for the same task of constructing a higher-dimensional body, the path Zhao Cheng had previously taken—and the path Ancient Cosmos had taken—was to treat every heavenly barrier as a component. In the end, the ten great pillars and ten layers of heavenly barriers became ten parts, which were pieced together into one's own higher-dimensional body.
Witch Civilization, however, had refined this step and added another stage. It performed a preliminary
