Maria, Celaine, and Elenei weren't sure how they should test if it was real or not. They could try becoming the Master of the Core, but that's easier said than done even if they had the real thing. The main problem with this is even if they do become the 'master' of the Core, who's to say they didn't just waste all of their time becoming the 'master' of a fake core?

The same issue applies to the other possible solutions as well. They could try and destroy it, but if it was fake then they would have just wasted much of their time and energy on something that brought them no benefit.

But, they are only worried about these things because they are short on time. If they had more time to spare, then things would have played out differently.

Mira stood by with a slight smirk on her face. She had already come up with a viable way to counter this Formation. Her storage space in the F.LD.I.L! Since that place is technically in another dimension, if she were to place the items from this Natural Formation in her storage space, any illusory items should dispel as soon as she tries to place them in the F.LD.I.L.

It's only a theory as Mira hasn't found anything to test this theory out, but she's confident that she's correct. If she is, then it would save their group a lot of time. No, not just that, but they probably won't even need to become the 'master' of this Natural Formation. She should just be able to put it in her storage space and the Formation should disappear. In theory, at least.

With her thoughts organized, Mira walked up to Mira and took the Core from her hands, and tried putting it in her storage space. She watched as the Core vanished from her hand and entered her Storage Space, but it immediately fizzled out of existence as soon as it entered.

She was a bit disappointed that this wasn't the real thing, but at the same time, she was happy that her theory was correct. All she needs to do is place any items from this Natural Formation in her Storage Space to know if they are real or not.

Maria was a bit stunned that Mira would take the Core from her without saying anything to her, but she didn't complain. She knew that Mira had a good reason for taking it away from her.

Without any emotion on her face, Mira opened her mouth.

"It's a fake."

Her companions didn't know how to react to that and just looked at Mira weirdly. They were waiting for an explanation, but seeing as Mira didn't say anything afterward they realized she wasn't going to explain herself. Well, until Elenei spoke up.

"Can you elaborate? How do you know it's fake?"

Mira looked at her for a second before sighing. She already told them about her Storage Space a few days ago, but it seems they either forgot or they didn't realize how unique it was.

"Remember when I said that I received a Storage Space from the Inheritance I got a few days ago?"

Seeing all of them nod, Mira continued.

"Well, that space is technically in another dimension that only I can enter."

Mira didn't say anymore because that's all the information they should need to figure out the rest.

Just like she thought, her companions almost instantly caught on to what she was trying to say and were amazed that Mira received such a good thing! Elenei especially knew the benefits of having such a Storage Space. Basically, Mira could never be robbed unless she let herself be robbed. Not only that, but she can place items that might have some sort of tracker on them in her Storage Space without having to worry about being hunted down.

"That's awesome! Hey, how about you check out these Spirit Stones to see if they're real or not. If they are real, then we're rich! Hahaha~"

Maria exclaimed to which Mira nodded her head as she was going to do that even without her reminder.

Standing in front of the small mountain of Spirit Stones, Mira released a wave of Qi from her palm and encapsulated all of them into her Qi before bringing her hand to the Qi around the Spirit Stones and willing them into her Storage Space.

The mountain of Spirit Stones disappeared from everyone's view, but inside Mira's Storage Space only a few hundred Spirit Stones remained. Luckily, they were all Mid-Grade Spirit Stones!

Mira took them back out and dropped them in front of Maria.

"These are the only real ones out of that entire pile. You can keep them since you're the one that found them."

Maria was ecstatic that all of the Mid-Grade Spirit Stones were real! Sure, she lost out on a bunch of Low-Grade ones and wasted the better part of the day mining them, but this is still more than she could have asked for. She immediately started putting away those Spirit Stones in her Storage Ring.

Mira waited for her to finish before speaking about what they should do next.

"I think everyone can agree that Maria is an idiot who failed to do her job properly, we don't really need her results to know what we should do next. Although we can't be 100% certain, we can assume that the edge of the Formation from here to the end of her side is around 425 kilometers as well since Celaine's was 75 Kilometers. I think everyone should understand what to do now. We choose one of the two 425-kilometer-long sides and walk 175 kilometers from our current position. Then from there, we just make our way to the center of the Formation. We should also make the tracking markers a bit more unique this time so we can differentiate between them."

Mira gave Elenei a deep look after she finished that last sentence and the latter knew that unless she came up with a better idea to make the tracking markers more unique, Mira was going to suggest using her blood.

Unfortunately for Elenei, she couldn't come up with a better idea and was almost forced to use her blood to make the new tracking markers more unique.

However, she said she'll only give them a drop of her blood. Mira can dilute it as many times as she wants, but she's only getting a drop. Elenei also made them promise that when they are finally out of this place, they are going to wipe out any traces of her and Rhydian's existence from this place.

Although Mira didn't know the reason why, she could tell that Elenei was serious about this and she also didn't have a problem doing that so she agreed.

It's now time to begin their journey to the center of the Formation!
