Chapter 110 - Hidden Library

Utter disbelief and never before felt astonishment. Only these words were capable of describing the current emotions the three were feeling upon looking at the sight in front and around them.

After Nash's sudden seemingly suicidal action the three were able to go through the small opening of the gate and end up in a completely different place which was by no means ordinary or usual which one was used to; could be said they were in an entirely separate world!

Right now, Nash and the two were standing in the middle of a small, square emerald platform which was around ten meters in both length and width. However, the breathtaking sight was not the platform but the scenery around it!

Everywhere their eyes could see around the small platform, white clouds were floating in a seemingly peaceful manner while high above in the sky thousands of bookshelves crafted out of different materials were hovering, each containing millions of books, scrolls, and jade tablets akin to the pillars in the Grand Library!

However, in contrast to the Grand Library, here, those books, scrolls, and jade tablets could be seen soaring through the sky around the whole place, flying from one bookshelf to another as if they were some kind of living beings or birds!

Furthermore, to make the whole place even more bizarre and breathtaking, there were even several smaller islands drifting even higher in the sky, each having either a small lake on them which water fell and vanished among the white clouds below or a miniature ecosystem that was in perfect harmony with each other!

There were even butterflies, fireflies, and birds with small bodies visible on some islands, further increasing Nash's, Miles', and Amy's level of shock.

"Did we... die? Is this heaven?" Miles couldn't resist the urge to ask the question and asked, even raising his hand to touch his body on several points just to see if he was a ghost or spirit whose physical body was nonexistent.

But unfortunately, despite touching his entire body twice and even taking off the mask to slap himself, he found with deep shock that the sight in front of him didn't disappear nor was his body akin to a ghost's!

"Are these real clouds? Is there anything below if we were to fall?" Amy asked as she glanced at the drifting clouds around the platform but didn't dare to touch in fear something will happen to her.

Nash, on the other hand, didn't hesitate even a second and with a great leap jumped into the clouds headfirst before vanishing from sight, dumbfounding the two still on the platform.

"Did he..." Miles was ready to ask something when he saw how Nash's figure emerged from below the ground and floated on its surface on his back almost as if he was drifting on the water.

"It is completely safe. It is like water... Well, sort of like water." Nash said casually as he stood up and through some miracle, his body was raised until the point where he was literally standing on the clouds.

"Huh? How?" Amy asked as she walked to the edge of the platform and crouched down to touch the clouds.

"You just need to imagine yourself either wanting to swim or walk on it," Nash said as he repeatedly emerged and vanished among the clouds in an up and down motion.

"W-Woah!" Amy went to try out if what Nash said was valid or not, and in the end, when she saw how she was standing on the seemingly fog-like clouds she couldn't help but let out a shocked gasp.

Miles was the same, but different from Amy he immediately jumped into the sea of clouds, leaping into the air before vanishing below like some kind of dolphin or some sort that enjoyed its habitat.

After getting used to the new environment, Amy walked close to Nash and while looking around asked, "And now what? What should we look for?"

Nash remained silent and began to ponder. According to Aruer's words, once he reached Planet Gaia and found the Hidden Library, which he did, then he would get to know everything he wished to know.

Though, standing in the Hidden Library even for ten full minutes already nothing happened nor does he have an idea what he should do next.

"Let's check out the things here first. Maybe we can find something interesting." Nash said and walked toward the closest bookshelf in the sky. And as he did, almost as if the bookshelf had its own consciousness and feeling what Nash wished to do immidieatly began to descend, reaching the clouds below the very same moment when Nash and the rest was less than two meters away from it!

Amy and Miles were shocked at first, but seeing how Nash took down a scroll as if he didn't see something amazing they decided not to stand around with awe any longer and quickly choose something to read to their liking.

However, the moment they touched their scrolls, several rows of texts appeared in their line of sight before the eyes widened like saucers!

"This... Impossible! How?" Amy was struck stupefied as she held the scroll in hand with trembling hand, unconsciously glancing at Nash.

Miles was the same, but he quickly snapped back to senses and went to grab another scroll only to fall back into a dazed condition.

"This and this... Even this too! What the actual fuc... I mean what the hell? How can this be even possible?" Miles fast grabbed scrolls, books, and jade tablets one after another, his complexion below his mask holding deep disbelief.

"All of these are True Domination Class Arts? And each having either Higher or Peak Grade?!?" Miles asked as he examined each scroll and book and saw how each of them was top-notch Domination Arts!

One had to know that while True Domination Class Arts were not overly rare as there existed quite a handful in all dimensions, they were still rare enough to be sold at an extremely high price as they were allowed one to possess extremely powerful strength upon learning them!

For instance, among the Fairy Race, there was a royalty who after several years of hard work learned a True Domination Class Art which not only boosted her Legacy to tremendous heights but even allowed her to use a domain like power where until one didn't get their heads severed could be revived with ease!

Naturally, this only worked until a specific amount of time and once it was used it went into a very lengthy cooldown. After all, just like how nothing could be perfect and everything had a weakness, this power too had its own disadvantages.

However, despite having such a disadvantage, no one can deny that it was a power that could easily determine who rises and who falls during a large-scale war or a clash between two races!

Thus, seeing that there were not one but a dozen of True Domination Class Arts, each either at the Higher or Peak Grade was by no means an underestimation to say was mind-blowing!

Furthermore, to make things even crazier than they already were, there were thousands of bookshelves, each containing an almost uncountable amount of books, scrolls, and jade tablets! Just the mere thought that each and every one of them was Domination Arts... was out of this world and was something that definitely needed quite a time to be consumed and digested.

"This... Can we learn these?" Amy mumbled as she opened the scroll and began to read the text inside.

Miles did the same by choosing one that got his liking while Nash remained motionless in one place, his hand holding a jade tablet. However, if one looked closely into his eyes through his mask's gaps, one would realize his gaze was completely hollow almost as if he was not conscious even though his eyes moved left and right as if he was reading.

In an unknown place where only white clouds could be seen wherever one looked, a single but massive island floated through the sky. On this island which was covered in emerald green grass, only a single tree was visible with leaves as colorful as a rainbow.

Below this tree's shade which was seeming as tall as a three-story house, a handsome young man with silk-smooth silver hair lay relaxedly with eyes closed and hands behind his head. Even his right leg was gently placed over his left showing he was doing nothing but chilling without any care.

And in front of this man who even hummed a quiet but extremely pleasant to the ear melody, an individual wearing a black robe and emerald mask appeared seemingly out of thin air; naturally, this individual was none other than Nash!

"So you have finally arrived.." the handsome man suddenly stopped humming the melody which was capable of soothing one's mind and soul and after opening his eyes that revealed a pair of voyager-blue eyes, he smiled gently.
