Kalina's breathing became ragged.
'What kind of storage treasure was that? How could it be stronger than mine?'
Even if Aksai somehow possessed a higher-grade spatial artifact, how had he bypassed the spatial prohibitions placed upon those encrypted jade scrolls?
Those restrictions had been personally established by her faction.
They were specifically designed to prevent exactly this kind of theft.
Yet...
They had been bypassed as easily as tearing through a sheet of paper.
Then another realization struck her.
Her face became even uglier.
'No! My Natal Sword...'
Her voice trembled.
Her Third Order fire-element Natal Sword. It was the weapon she had nurtured for decades. The artifact connected directly to her Core and soul had also disappeared into that mysterious spatial ripple.
Earlier, she had not even bothered taking it out while fighting the Purple River Lord. There had been no need. He simply wasn't worthy of forcing her to use her strongest weapon.
