After making his way through layer upon layer of obstacles， John reached the center of the Redstone Area and laid his eyes on the redstone in front of him.

The redstone emitted a faint warmth， exuding an air of both danger and allure. John stood not far from it， gazing at the redstone that gave off an ominous aura. The longing within him grew ever stronger.

In his previous life， he had attempted to study the redstone up close. However， every time he got within 10 meters of it， his special ability couldn't contain the forces of time and space. His body would start to act on its own， gradually veering towards a state of wild frenzy.

This time， as he stood observing the redstone from a distance of less than 5 meters， his body showed no signs of rejection. Instead， he felt a sense of eagerness.

He approached the redstone and gently reached out to touch its surface. His hand passed right through the outer layer and made contact with the interior.

The palm on the inside felt a slight suction， like a magnet attracting a piece of iron. That pulling force was palpable.

"Teacher~~， you're being naughty~~~"

Gwen's ghostly voice came from behind. Even in his soul form， John couldn't help but feel a shiver run down his spine.

[Damn it! There's no time left!] John told himself in his heart that he had to act right away.

Without hesitation， he launched his soul forward and plunged headlong into the redstone.

After John entered the red stone， the whole stone emitted a strong light. Winnie watched helplessly as John walked in. Although she had awakened her special ability， she didn't have the ability to directly touch the red stone and could only watch John disappear in front of her.

"Teacher， you escaped last time. This time， I will never make the same mistake again!" Gwen's eyes flickered with red light.

At this time， inside the red stone， John looked at the surrounding space. It was completely empty. There was only a crystal floating in front， emitting a pale blue light.

John couldn't see what he was stepping on， but he could just stand in this empty world. There was no direction， and he could only slowly walk towards the blue crystal.

As John got closer and closer， the faint call became more and more intense.

When he walked up to the crystal， he could hear more clearly. It was like someone was speaking in his ear， "Grab me， grab me， grab me."

The crystal kept repeating these three words. John shook his head， trying to get the voice out of his head， but covering his ears didn't make it any weaker.

He reached out a hand and touched the crystal. The closer his palm got to the crystal， the stronger the sense of heat and attraction became. When he stopped at a distance of less than 3 centimeters from the crystal， the heat burned his palm a little painfully.

John stared straight at the crystal at this moment， thinking to himself， "There's no turning back for me. No matter how difficult the path I've chosen is， I have to keep going."

Making up his mind， John reached forward and grabbed the crystal in his hand.

Instantly， a violent burst of light erupted from his palm， piercing through the center of his palm and shining onto the space around.

"Ugh!"

At this moment， John felt a sense of fullness. The previous feelings of weakness， fatigue， and lack of balance all disappeared.

"Am I... getting my body back?"

John spread his hands in confusion and then clenched his fists tightly. The sense of power was unmistakable. The crystal was still in his hand， but its light was growing dimmer as the energy inside was pouring into his body.

'Crack!'

John heard a cracking sound coming from within his body. This sound was very familiar to him， and it was exactly the sound he had been hoping to hear right now.

His genetic lock had broken. In the past， whenever a warrior awakened their special ability， they would hear a cracking sound like a mirror breaking. This represented that the person had transcended the category of ordinary humans.

He just wasn't sure if the ability he awakened this time was still "magnetism". Previously， it was activated through a potion， but this time it was through the red stone.

John closed his eyes and carefully felt his own state. Then， his body trembled slightly， and he shouted excitedly.

"Damn it! I actually awakened an ability! And this... this is a spatial ability!"

John awakened his special ability in this situation without going through any painful process. He simply became an ability user.

This ability was even more powerful than "magnetism". Even in his previous life， in the entire federal archives， there was only one person with a spatial ability. That was the then director of the Federal Bureau. With his own power， he redirected a red stone half the size of the moon that was about to hit the Earth， making it fly towards a place outside the Milky Way.

As long as he had a clear destination and direction in mind， he could use his super - space ability to blink. It was said that if one practiced the spatial ability to the extreme， they could comprehend time and no longer just jump through spatial dimensions， but could freely shuttle through time dimensions.

John stretched out his right hand， pointed it forward， and tried to activate his ability. He stirred his heart and started to exert force.

Suddenly， ripples appeared in the space ahead， just like when a stone was thrown into a calm lake. Circles of waves spread out in all directions.

A circular passageway emitting a soft blue light slowly emerged. Starting from an apple - sized dot， it spun and expanded outwards， gradually growing larger.

Finally， it formed a passageway the size of a baby. The scenery of his courtyard appeared inside the passageway. A rhombus - shaped red stone as big as a basketball hoop was stuck straight into the lawn of his home. Not far away， Joris was taking pictures of the red stone with his phone， and from time to time， he would take selfies as well.

Subconsciously， John touched his pocket， trying to find his phone. Then he suddenly remembered that he had died once， and his phone should still be in that taxi. He tried to mobilize more of his special ability to make the spatial passageway wider.

However， no matter how hard John tried to activate his ability， he didn't get the desired result. The passageway remained the same size.

The light of the crystal in his hand was also getting dimmer and dimmer.

"Are you kidding me!" John's face showed some annoyance， and he continued， "Even if I can't reach my home， there should at least be a spatial passageway that can let me run out of here. Trapping me in this damned place， how am I supposed to get out!"

‘Dong!’

Suddenly， the space he was in shook violently， and John suddenly had an idea.

[Although I'm in an unknown space right now， I should still be inside the red stone. The only things that could create such a commotion are either another red stone crashing into this one， or it's the vibrations created by Gwen outside.]

When John awakened his special ability， outside the red stone， Gwen was struggling with how to get John out of it.

Unexpectedly， the light and magnetic field emitted by the red stone were weakening. Gradually， the red stone completely lost its light and became an ordinary huge rock.

Gwen couldn't help but say happily， "Even God is helping me. Master， you'd better stay in there obediently."

Then she activated her special ability. Four thick vines of the Abyssal Vine burst out from the ground. The vines， about three meters thick， suddenly slapped towards the red stone that had lost its red glow.
