It had been so ti since Vaan last visited the moon.
Last ti, he could only reach it after three hours of travel. But now that his Spatial Law had advanced by leaps and bounds since that ti, it only took him an instant to reach it.
Originally, it would have taken him four months of space travel to reach the asteroid field region and eight months for a round trip. However, that ti estimation had also been reduced to roughly eighteen minutes one way and thirty-six minutes for a round trip.
What seed unreachable once was now within his sights.
It was incredible that advancing his Spatial Law by twelvefold would result in a nearly eleven-thousandfold increase in distance coverage.
Nevertheless, being able to do this much should be expected of him, considering his comprehension of the Spatial Law was on par with Second-stage Rank 6 Divine Beings.
Stellar travel was expected of Rank 6 Divine Beings, and those specialized in the Spatial Law should be the best at it.
If there was a chance, Vaan definitely wanted to visit the asteroid field region to look for opportunities and treasures. But before that, he had to deal with Abaddon and the Evernight Territory.

After obtaining the Fourth Dinsional Sense, Vaan was able to learn more about the pure earth elental worm. Not only that, he could also see its true form.
All this while, Abaddon had only been destroying the Earth Spirit Worm's third-dinsional form.
Unless the core of the Earth Spirit Worm's fourth-dinsional aspect was destroyed, it wouldn't be killed--no matter how many tis its third-dinsional form was shattered into oblivion.
However, Abaddon could not perceive the fourth dinsion, let alone interact with it. Thus, he was fated to never be able to kill the Earth Spirit Worm.
That said, it was still interesting to watch Abaddon making the attempts.
Each ti Vaan saw the Earth Spirit Worm blown apart, the shattering of its earthen parts was like that of breaking an outer shell; the inner main body remained unaffected.
Furthermore, this inner main body was like the invisible Outer Beings he had seen in his past-life mories. It could hardly be seen and even harder to interact with.
However, Vaan didn't find this strange.
It was like trying to fit a whole apple into a single point on a straight line that had just been drawn on paper. Furthermore, that single point on the straight line hosted an entire universe of its own.
Physically, the apple couldn't be there, and yet it was.
As a quasi-fourth-dinsional being, the Earth Spirit Worm was like that apple. Its main body existed in a different dinsion parallel to the third physical dinsion, except a small part was more connected to the third-dinsional world than normal fourth-dinsional beings.
What Vaan didn't understand was how the quasi-fourth-dinsional being ca to be.
Considering his chaosverse didn't have Chaos's protection as it still existed outside of it, it was no surprise that Outer Beings could invade it.
However, how was the quasi-fourth-dinsional being created?
Was it the offspring of those Outer Beings? Why wasn't it a complete fourth-dinsional being if that was the case?
Of course, Vaan never considered the possibility of a fourth- dinsional being with a third-dinsional being copulating to create it.
The sheer thought of it was borderline ridiculous.
Vaan thought of several other plausible explanations for the Earth Spirit Worm's existence, but he could only look into it another ti.
If there was an opportunity to kill Abaddon, then there was no need to wait until Hecate arrived.
…
Abaddon destroyed the Earth Spirit Worm's physical form over fifty tis before realizing it was pointless to continue since he understood it couldn't be killed.
But at the sa ti, if he didn't do so, it would continue to harass him.
During this ti, Vaan also sneak-attacked Abaddon several tis without exposing himself.
The cumulative frustration eventually made Abaddon erupt in anger.
"Human! Do you know nothing better than these cheap tricks?! Where is your honor? Co out and face openly!" Abaddon barked.
"And where is the honor in a Peak Rank 6 Divine Being picking on a Peak Demigod? You are truly shaless," Vaan's voice oscillated from several locations created with pocket portals, obscuring the source.
Abaddon didn't feel ashad, but his face did grow colder.
"Hmph! Do you think I can't find you if you keep hiding?" Abaddon snorted.
Shortly after sealing the Earth Spirit Worm with darkness, Abaddon quickly sent pulses of darkness surging outwards to scan his surroundings.
After a mont, he imdiately manipulated his power of darkness to hurl the Earth Spirit Worm in the direction of an inconspicuous-looking space debris.
Boom!
Space debris shattered into smaller fragnts upon impact with the Earth Spirit Worm's colossal body.
However, Vaan had already escaped with spatial shift.
Even so, he left so traces of his movents, causing Abaddon to lock onto his spatial coordinates. He imdiately shot a beam of darkness in that direction, eyes gleaming with killing intent.
Puchi!
"I found you—Arghh!" Abaddon suddenly cried in pain.
Although he had launched a fatal strike at Vaan, it was imdiately redirected with a portal and struck him in the back.
"How many tis have you fallen for that sa trick? Haven't you learned by now?"
Following Vaan's ridicule, the Earth Spirit Worm launched itself back at Abaddon, which further pissed him off.
As for Vaan's insulting remark, he had no comnt.
Only he knew how impeccably tid and precise the redirected attacks were. It took far more than skills and couldn't be replicated by just any spatial user.
Sure, they could also open portals to redirect his attacks. However, it wouldn't be so impossibly difficult to dodge like this. The person also had foresight and swift reflexes.
Abaddon wouldn't give Vaan the benefit of being triggered by his provocations.
The only way to deal with Vaan's spatial tricks was to render them ineffective. Abaddon felt his pride hurt that he had to expend so much effort to deal with such a weak Soul Master.
"Your playti ends here, Human," Abaddon coldly declared.
