The Oracle continued to disappear and reappear while speaking, "What is fated...that is you will go there..." It pointed further outwards into the horizon.
Hamar followed their finger and as they look to the horizon, the world zipped by and again they moved someplace else.
They were in the sky again, though the space was dark and in front of him was a massive black tower. He felt that if he was here by himself and not with The Oracle he would be suppressed so much that he could not even think.
"Where is this?"
"This is merely your fated location, here you will find what you want...but this is a place you will only come to when you are needed to be there. For now destiny tells you to become stronger, stronger and take on Yi Sect as you do."
"Then...what do I need to do to become strong enough to get what I'm wanting?"
"To surpass your current self, you must escape the binds of the World. You oppose this World, yet you do not wish for it's destruction. You wish for cooperation, to do that only means you must first become something of your own. Only then will you be able to form a cooperation with the World."
"Cooperation..." Hamar looked down at his hand, "Do you mean that I must finish the body reformation, what about after? How do I create a 'cooperation with...the World?"
The Oracle snapped its finger and Hamar found himself back in the cave beside Yan. The Oracle turned it's black and started to walk into the dark, "You will see when it is done. Do not settle for mere comprehension, you will understand when you are fated to do so."
As it entered the darkness it threw something down. A piece of paper floated in the air and made it's way gently into Hamar's hands.
He looked down, and saw it was a map. And on that map, The Oracle noted several locations. Hamar traced his finger and located himself then the locations around where they were.
He muttered, "Skin Tempering Waterfall, Sight Cave, Smell Lagoon, Hairyman Sanctuary..."
He ran his finger along the paper, "Places for me to train?" Then as he held the paper, he felt something on the back. As he turned it around, he saw a new map.
"Map of this desert...and Yi Sect's plans..." He looked towards where they had killed Zhangfu and destroyed the Reversal Crystal production, "Reversal Crystal - Rayleigh" then he ran his finger to another location.
"T-this..." He turned the map around and showed Yan, "Here!" He tapped the location he had spotted.
He continued, "That's the place we heard off, right? The City of Lust..."
Yan looked a the map, "That's about right...that's where we heard of the Coalition spread corruption. But how do we have a map, and not just that...there, there, there...it's all marked."
Hamar turned it around to himself, "Not just that, look beside the places. 'Life absorption (Cultivators) - Zalar', it says names. And given what the Oracle says I think those are the members of Yi Sect responsible with what they are doing."
Yan looked Hamar in the eyes, "This is a massive breakthrough, this is worthy to summon your Master."
Hamar nodded until as he reached into his robe, he heard The Oracle in his head, "Not yet..." And just as the voice appeared it was gone.
"No, let's-let's wait. I have some places I need to visit first." He felt he understood The Oracle's intentions. He should make use of the training location first before calling his Master.
He looked back to the other side of the map. It was much more zoomed out, and he looked to where he was, a small patch of desert next to the North Fog.
He read it out carefully, "Echoes of the Past". Then he turned the map around again to the side with Yi Sect. He scanned it for any clues, eventually finding a location marked 'Time Pool - Ban'.
"Let us go to once place ourselves, then contact Master. Here, let's go there."

In the North of the forest, a massive ruptured in space say above a forest. And in that rupture, one could see rapidly moving green water.
Inside the space rupture, a person wearing a long flowing robe flared above and stared down. With vacant eyes they focused don hearing.
And with the waters rushing, underneath all the water they could hear something. "Mommy!" They continued to listen as tears fell down into the pool.
They heard more, "The experiment is working..." The person's vacant eyes trembled and they squeezed their fists.
The screams became louder and louder, ravings ruptured their ears and caused them to bleed. Each drop of blood dripping into the river, yet still they heard those screeches.
"I will save you." The person turned around and revealed their fair complexion. They looked like a young noble woman and in her hands she held a lifeless puppet.
***
In the darkness The Oracle threw their hand back and caused Hamar and Yan to disappear. They dropped to the floor and groaned.
Throwing off their mask, they revealed their long flowing white hair. Pale blond eyes and pulsating red veins on the temples.
She was completely albino and fell to the ground, coughing up blood. As she did, in between coughs she cursed someone, "Admin...I've helped as much as I can"
She rubbed her mouth of blood and looked upwards, peering through the world to watch onto Hamar. "I can only get through the world so much, this is the limit. After he transcends, you can take over..."
The Oracle put back on her pure white mask which immediately depended her voice to a male one, she breathed roughly as she hobbled over and found a throne sat in the darkness.
"I hope you make it Hamar, you are the only hope we have..."
Then she slumped down and fell asleep, snoring deeply.
