The Witch Hunter System

Vaan was a man of great focus; the moment he was seated in the lotus position and closed his eyes, he immediately entered the perfect state of meditation – the state of emptiness.

In this state, a person would not have any distracting thoughts, and their sense of the world would be heightened to the greatest extent as if they had become one with it.

Normally, people would have to practice for months or even years before they could achieve this mystical state. Even the experienced ones would still take half an hour of meditation before entering the state of emptiness.

Nevertheless, Vaan's state of emptiness was quite different from everyone else – he had thousands upon thousands of micro-thought processes in the back of his mind, constantly simulating scenarios and calculating probabilities.

Logically, these thousands upon thousands of micro-thought processes should have hindered Vaan from entering the state of emptiness; it should have been his greatest challenge.

After all, given the greatness of his mind, to not think was akin to not breathing; it was discomforting. He wouldn't be able to do it for prolonged periods.

But contrary to one's expectations, these micro-thought processes did not hinder Vaan's meditation but even aid him.

These micro-thought processes were sub-consciousness that had been divided from Vaan's main consciousness to retain his humanity and sense of self. But even when divided, they were still a part of his consciousness.

As such, it only took a single will to end all thoughts.

When Vaan entered the state of emptiness, the micro-thought processes were like headless lambs without the command of the main consciousness – they scattered chaotically.

This chaotic scattering of Vaan's senses allowed him to contact the surrounding elements around the Black Mountain and better perceive the laws in the area.

Without any surprise, Vaan could sense most of the elements around the Black Mountain were of the fire attribute. On the other hand, the spatial elements were quite scarce.

However, Vaan didn't find this surprising.

Even if the Black Mountain came from a supernova star that formed a black hole, it would only be imprinted with the spatial laws that occurred during the initial formation of the black hole; it wouldn't record the complete formation.

If the Black Mountain had been imprinted with the complete formation, it wouldn't have landed in Pangea. Instead, it would have been devoured by the black hole long ago.

Nevertheless, despite the scarcity of spatial elements, the spatial elements were more drawn to Vaan's consciousness than the abundant fire elements.

'The Fire Law is more evident, but I can perceive the scarce Spatial Law more clearly? As expected, my spatial affinity is exceedingly high,' Vaan thought.

A few moments later, Vaan rid himself of distracting thoughts and focused on perceiving the laws of the Black Mountain. However, it only took a few moments before he broke focus due to an unexpected discovery.

Vaan knew his affinity with space was incredibly high. Still, the extent of it never ceased to amaze him.

As his consciousness gathered the specks of spatial elements, they surprisingly formed a visual recording of the initial formation of the black hole that replayed in his mind. The amount of information he could dissect from it was far better than any simulations produced through human observation and technology from his past life.

It was known that black holes possessed one of the most, if not the most, powerful gravitational forces in the universe.

However, all matter caught within them would not be devoured directly but followed a pattern similar to the centrifugal flow of water in the presence of a sinkhole. Although this manner of devouring seemed slow compared to a straight-line devouring, it was actually extremely fast due to the sheer quantity and rate of devouring.

Nevertheless, why did the black hole have such a devouring pattern? In fact, what was gravity?

Although people knew gravity was the invisible force of attraction that pulls objects to each other, not everyone knew why this force existed.

Of course, Vaan was aware the secret was related to the Law of Space.

As Vaan observed the initial formation of the black hole and studied the curvature of spacetime that caused all matter to be devoured by the black hole in a spiraling pattern, his eyes eventually beamed with enlightenment.

'Gravity is just spatial compression. When space is compressed, the distance between objects naturally shrinks,' Vaan mused.

However, it wasn't just a simple spatial compression; there was an intricate way of compressing space. A black hole had layers upon layers of centrifugal-directional spatial compression.

Although it sounded simple, the spatial compression of a black hole involved the highest level of application. A normal Demigod did not have the mental faculty to recreate it, even if they had comprehended the Law of Space. Even a Rank 6 Divine Being would find it extremely difficult to achieve.

However, this was Vaan's area of expertise.

In the field of law manipulation, even the mighty ancient Empyrean Scarletsea would have to admit to being inferior to him.

His ever-growing ability to absorb information and learn was unique and possibly supreme under the heavens.

'This intricate way of compressing space… This is the Concept of Cosmic Flow,' Vaan's eyes glimmered with profundity.

Ding!

<Your understanding of the Law of Space has improved>

<Your Authority of Space has been raised>

<[Law Comprehension] Space Law: 1% à 5%>

Unknowingly, Vaan's understanding of the Spatial Law soared and came infinitely close to the same level as his understanding of the Fire Law, which took days to achieve. In contrast, he had only meditated on the Spatial Law for a few hours.

The disparity of his talent in these two laws was like that of heaven and earth; there was no point in comparing.

However, Vaan felt strange as he perceived the Law of Space. It did not feel like he had gained insight into anything new but rather consolidated what he already knew. It was strange for him to feel this way since he knew he had definitely gained new insights into the Law of Space.

Although Vaan pursued power, even he knew his rate of improvement on the Law of Space was abnormal.

This made him doubt his origin once more.

'My perception and comprehensive talent are very high, but they shouldn't be to this degree…' Vaan frowned.

Vaan was already aware of one past life, but could it be that he had more than one past life? Perhaps in one of his other past life, he was someone peerless in the Law of Space?

But if so, why didn't he have any memory of that life? Was it sealed? Or was he simply too weak to unlock multiple past-life memories?
