Ye Jun had two options before him. He could either follow the string which would likely lead him back to his essence from where he could start his ascension.
Or he could follow the call of this unknown yet familiar substance whose connection with him was denser than anything else. The worst part was that his instincts asked him to follow it.
But for once, he didn't listen to them. Ascension was much more important to him.
'If it is connected to me, I'll get to see it anyways.'
Thinking of that, he pushed himself to follow the string even as the current opposed him, making him struggle hard since he didn't even know how to navigate in this realm. He was following his instincts and simply willing himself to follow that string and somehow, it was working.
The boat made from his Will continued to sail forward in the boundless ocean, having no tether but that one string. And it followed it madly.
