Chapter 31 Shadow Space

Oliver was wondering where he was, since he was able to see the only light in the dark space he started heading towards the light that was suspended in the air rotating slowly.

When Oliver got close to the light, he saw a write-up suspended close to the light and the write-up still had light in it. When he saw the writing, he was familiar with the characters of the letter. It was the same as the ones he got from the black seed in his dantian during his breaking through to the fifth level of the qi essence realm.

"So this is the shadow space". Oliver said the words he saw out loud, it was the statement he saw in the dark space when he got close to the light, and the words were written in black very dark with a pale yellow color that could be seen inside the dark letters and it the pale yellow colors in the dark letters that contain a little form of light in them.

Oliver was shocked and confused because from what he was seeing he was able to analyze that he was somehow sent to a place called the shadow space by the black seed, the thing he was confused about was that he did not know how it happen, because a moment ago he was sitting in his new rented apartment and now he was in the shadow space and he did not know the location of the shadow space he just knew he was there and could not tell the way to where he was. What shocked Oliver was that he felt his real body was not in the shadow space like it was a reflection of himself that was standing there, not real, but it also seems more real than he could imagine because the so-called refection that he said he was in the shadow space was there with all his thought, so he there and could not help but get dumbfounded.

"How it, that am here and it also feels like I am not here, am I really the one standing here". Oliver thought to himself he felt he had experienced a lot of unbelievable things in a couple of days, that a lot of people won't be opportune to see half of it their entire life and even if he should story tell it to other magical cultivators and not tell them he was the one that experienced it, they would believe it as some legend or myth and not take it to serious.

"if such mysterious things are happening to more than half of the population of magical cultivators, that means there will be a lot of mad magical cultivators in the streets," Oliver said lightly with a simple smile on his face he wondered if the mental strength of a person was not strong enough then they would run mad because of how the different mysterious event that causes shock and confusion keep happening.

"What is in here for me shadow space," Oliver said with a smile on his face it was like he was not expecting anything good from the space because of the origin of the black seed originating from his bad luck curse.

"The shadow space, you are here to train, welcome to the battle arena are you ready for training". As Oliver was lost in thought about what the shadow space was all about, information was sent to his Dao sense he could not help but have a blooming smile on his face, he felt things were not as bad as he thought. He as a battle platform not far from himself the platform appeared out of nowhere, and Oliver look around he knew there was nothing there before, the platform was black and square in shape twenty feet on every side and about six feet high from the black water-like ground.

"This is indeed interesting if am ready to receive training, so I was sent here to receive some instructions, I wonder how it would be". Without wasting time Oliver stepped into the battle arena, he was already running out of time for the upcoming ten thousand battle tournament, so it was a golden opportunity for Oliver that he would not waste.

As he stepped onto the battle arena he saw a figure being formed right before him at the other edge of the platform it was a shadow figure. It started from the head coming off the platform and from there to the neck going downward, when Oliver saw the shadow figure he could not help but opened his mouth wide for a tennis ball to fit in. He was shocked to his core and felt his eyes were deceiving him but he watched the figure that was being generated by the platform slowly and never took his eyes off the figure and did not blink like if he should he would miss some important information.

When the figure was fully formed it stood there looking at Oliver with a gentle smile on his face. Oliver could not help but look around himself, because the figure standing before him was him, like his reflection. When he looked around himself he found out that he had no shadow and there was no shadow of anything in the shadow space even with the light that was shining light on the platform there was no shadow and the figure that stood there was like his shadow.

"I think it is me in shadow form, but I think I won't be able to control him" When Oliver saw the gentle smile on his shadow-form face he knew it was out of his control because he was not smiling at that moment but his shadow form was smiling at him. Oliver could not help but raise his hand to see if his thought were right, when he did it he saw his shadow form smiling at him brightly he shook his head like he knew what Oliver was trying to confirm.

"This is great it has his own thought and ideas". Oliver could not help but said with a wide laughter accompanying his words.
