'Hopefully, it produces the desired effect…'
Having been practicing through the 'Ian Long' training thod for almost a month now, I was able to make great strides as I managed to max level the 'Interdiate' stage of my weapon arts' 'Elental Techniques' other than the ones which were initially maxed, however…
'I have been stuck long enough!'
No matter how much effort I put, I still wasn't able to push even one of them to advance to the next stage. This made feel sowhat frustrated considering I hardly t such obstacles in any form of training since I entered the 'Lost Realm'...
As such, I couldn't help but feel slightly hopeful with the addition of one more 'fresh blood' technique to study and practice, especially since this technique's concept was quite interesting!
'Even the na is…'
The technique's na, which ca in a pair, held quite the aning as well.
'Devouring Engulf - Darkness Unity'
The na, which seed to have been spat out by soone with a very serious case of chuunibyou, actually had so deep anings to it.
'Unity of sword and man!'
As an imaginary concept that has been ntioned in at least half the wuxia novels that I read, being only attainable by legendary figures or protagonists, it definitely piqued my interest, even if it was simply a practical imitation of it.
Darkness is ever-expanding and without limit, anything that is engulfed within can only beco part of it, forming one solitary entity!
With that as the main headline of the technique, its special elental sequence allowed 'engulfed' the weapon and the body of the user to form the connection of 'unity', not only unleashing the restriction of combat strength, but also extending the utility limit of the sword.
'Here we go…'
Not wasting much ti after thoroughly digesting the technique's details, I imdiately jumped into practice!
My usual routine today was already disturbed by the event of finding the ntal imprint, conversing with it, obtaining two new elents, and lastly testing the Crystal Refining Tower, so it didn't bother much to continue doing so. That was especially the case since my space 'sweeping' ti was going to be drastically reduced now that I had the Darkness elents.
Unlike the last ti I learned an elental weapon technique, this one didn't co in the special guidance 'to' form. As such, repeating the feat of learning a technique in the matter of 12 hours or so wasn't practically possible, however...
'This place really is efficient!'
The abundance of Darkness elents that crowded this space was like a special elixir that complented the practice of any Darkness-related technique. Not only did it allow smaller mistakes to be nded without trouble, but it greatly enhanced my senses when it ca to handling Darkness elents.
"ow!"
Finally deciding to take a break 10 hours later, I imdiately gave Light a hug to heal my ntal fatigue, who licked my cheeks in response, seemingly comforting before giving a light pat to the back.
"ow ow!"
Showing his pride in who persisted in training, Light looked extrely cute as he was trying to show human-like expressions in his 'mini' form, almost giving a cuteness overload and erasing half of my physical fatigue in the process…
"Co one, let's eat!"
Trying hard not to have a heart attack, I took an instantaneous shower before taking out two bowls of noodles for today's al.
"ow!"
Seeing the glistening noodles, Light almost jumped from my embrace into the bowl. Naturally, it wasn't that he was starving as it had rely been less than two days since the last 'big' al, which wasn't really much for an advanced monster such as Light, it was rely that he missed his daily 'delicacy'.
"It's okay, eat slowly, we can have double the bowls today!"
Feeling quite hearty as we ate together with zeal, I almost forgot the predicant we were in as I kept caressing Light's head. I was almost completely healed of exhaustion even though I hadn't slept yet.
However…
I couldn't help but spread out my perception by the ti I lay in bed to sleep, feeling extre familiarity with the previously depressing place as I examined the degree of change.
'This can be considered another special experience in itself…'
Even considering my usual wide range of perception, my current one was simply too wide in comparison, such a phenonon only happened due to how special this space was.
Just having basic Darkness Affinity and entry-level Darkness elental practice allowed one to use this familiarity to use the space itself as their eyes and ears. anwhile, being already a 3rd stage Darkness Elental Master, the effect was as exaggerated as it could be.
Most importantly…
'I see…'
Within the extre familiarity existed extre unfamiliarity, this particular contrast caused the source of this unfamiliarity to feel like a lighthouse that scread out its location. A faint smile couldn't help but surface on my face after this confirmation!
While the range of my perception has indeed gone crazy, it was still very far from reaching the level where it could cover the entire space. It would be barely enough to make my searching four tis as efficient. However, with the extrely unfamiliar 'scent' of Corruption that showed its general direction like a jet-black wolf that hid within a flock of sheep, quadrupling my searching efficiency was only the beginning!
'but…'
In fact, if not for the fact that I wanted to make use of this space's ti difference as well as its favorable effect on my plan to learn the elental weapon technique and purify my Darkness cell, I was 99% confident in needing a week at most to find the source of this nauseating 'Corruption', supposedly the demon who kidnapped to this place.
Opportunities were ant to be exploited reasonably and this applied even more so in the case of blessings in disguise such as my situation, so I obviously wasn't going to let this pass by after already suffering quite a bit.
'We should be able to get out of here soon enough…'
