"This kid… He is indeed crazy!" Sloth stood on the edge while watching what William was doing using his spirit sense.

William simply jumped, but he wasn't that insane to expect to cross such a grand distance and land safely without losing his life. Instead, he jumped off the back of this monster, and landed over another monster's back that was just a few hundred metres away.

Of course, this jump wouldn't pass without a price to pay. William used wind techniques to try and control his landing yet ended up with lots of wounds.

"Damn! That old man shall have helped instead of staying up there and watching," William took a healing elixir when he was in midair. And the moment he suffered those wounds, the elixir healed him right on the spot. But the pain he suffered was still quite annoying.

"I know you can hear me, old man," William shouted in discontent, "I'm going to enjoy my time while resting. So you can heal for a few days while I'll go down to the ground."

[Don't waste lots of time. You do know you have a contest upcoming in a few days!]

The voice of Sloth appeared in his mind using spirit telepathy. But William shrugged, "I never wanted to take part in that contest anyway."

He did indeed plan to use his time in checking more windstorms. As Sloth planned to take everyone down, and they were going to wait there for him, it was better for him to use this time to collect more loot.

And who knew, he might even find more masters from other worlds like how he got lucky with Park.

Yet his luck seemed to run short this time. He visited lots of windstorms, actually getting proficient at doing this.

He learnt the right way to use his cannonball move in the least possible numbers and let him get inside and out from each wind prison without wasting much time. At the same time, when he got inside any windstorm, he'd find tons of bones, dense with spirit power, and many rings of different sizes.

He gained a lot, spending days in doing so, jumping from the back of one monster to another. Yet he never found anyone living in any windstorm. All he found was simply graveyards, evidence of the large number of masters and monsters who got dragged here, to their deaths.

William didn't just collect loot, but also tried to find any clues about the origin of this world.

William knew all those who died here came from many worlds, and yet he didn't get any evidence on the portals that led them here.

He even used detection arrays, space stabilising arrays, and nothing managed to spot anything. "They can't just have come here out of thin air, I and others didn't…" he stood at the last monster, the one who was less than a hundred metres away from the ground and thought about this.

He recalled how he came here, the wind was the thing that brought him here. He looked at the many windstorms at the back of this turtle like flying monster, looked at the grand number of monsters flying around and filling the sky, before he thought about something.

"This wind… These windstorms… Don't tell me the portals aren't inside these storms, but they are the windstorms themselves!!"

William paused when he thought about this. He looked at the sky and couldn't help but sigh. "Even if this is true, I don't have any way to crack these portals. The exit doesn't lie here, this is just a doorway towards this place…"

William threw behind his back everything related to these flying monsters. He gained enough loot to fill hundreds of his rings. And even if he didn't know what these bones were used for, at least he gained lots of rings.

"Time to go down and scan this world," William already spread his sense over the ground, waiting on the back of this monster for many hours. The monster was flying slowly, but it crossed lots of areas fast.

The world down below was just like how Sloth told him, void of any sign of life. William saw hills, open plains filled with lots of grass and plants, and even a distant forest that was silver in colour.

Yet he never spotted a single monster or a human. William jumped down, used his wind techniques to slow down his descent, before landing on the ground safely thanks to the help of a healing elixir.

"You can come down now, old man," William shouted when he landed, knowing that Sloth was paying attention to all of his actions in the past days.

Sloth didn't say anything to him for days, and even when William shouted at him now, he didn't say anything in response. Instead, and after a few minutes, William saw something like a small cloud appear from the far reaches of the sky.

He didn't need to use his spirit sense to see them to know who they were. He waited patiently for almost half an hour before Sloth brought everyone down.

"You look a lot better," William noticed that not only his team, but also Park and his people improved a little.

"Without that deadly toxin in the wind, they'll grow better," Sloth said, as he was the most experienced one here about this toxin, "but… Who are they?"

He pointed towards Park and others. And William knew he spoke already with them and got to learn a few things from their mouths. "I accidently found them when I was trying to save you," William said, but didn't add more.

"They don't belong to our world, right?" Sloth was satisfied with this answer and starting from here a long discussion happened between him, William, and an old man from Park's group.

The fact that these masters came from another world was already known by all. Yet Sloth was more curious about where this world was, and how they came here.
