Leo imdiately found a comfortable spot to begin forming the Star, specifically it was on the top of the Commander's Palace wall where his front is facing the moon of the night.
"Base on the book, I should not try to do the hard way, which is to gather more Mana while forming the Star, but rather just use what amount of Mana my consciousness could fully contain within," Leo said to himself.
Leo sat down on the stone, brick floor before crossing his legs together. Then he closed his eyes before gathering Mana from his surrounding.
"This process would also let know my maximum Mana Capacity." Leo whispered to himself while gathering the Mana from his surrounding.
What Leo had just said was indeed correct. By gathering Mana until his consciousness is full, he would know just how much Mana could his consciousness at this point could handle.
Whoooosh!
Mana was slowly being filled inside Leo's consciousness, filling it slowly and slowly and slowly.
The small twinkling light of the Fireball spell and Green Terrain spell was also drowning within this Mana, though it didn't cause any sort of effect to them because they were made off using a certain Elent Mana, hence Pure Mana wouldn't be able to get inside them. If the Mana being gathered was of Fire or Nature Elent instead, then one of them would definitely start treating this as a feast, eating all they can in order to strengthen themselves.
Monts later, Leo's consciousness was finally filled to the brim. There was no longer any space for him to put any Mana within, signaling him to stop. He also began suppressing the Mana to not cause any damage to his consciousness.
However, seemingly out of nowhere, the Red Cube suddenly started consuming the Mana that he has worked really hard in order to fill his consciousness.
"Wait, a mont... what the heck is the Red Cube doing?" Leo exclaid inwardly due to being surprised. But, after a few seconds of being surprised, rather than trying to stop what is currently going on, he instead began gathering more Mana.
Ever since the Red Cube had rged with his consciousness, it had never once tried harming him. In fact, all of the things it had done so far was to help him in his path as a Mage, from easily gathering Mana in Mana stones, the Triple Layer Magic circle, and even the unique Cultivating technique that allows him to improve in a much faster rate compared to the others. So, the Red Cube absorbing the Mana he had gathered in his consciousness should be its act to help him once again.
Whoooosh!
Mana continued being filled inside Leo's consciousness while the Red Cube continued to busy itself from gathering the Mana into sowhere he doesn't have any clue about, seemingly intending to do sothing that he doesn't have any idea yet.
This continued on for over 5 hours straight before Leo was finally able to fill up his consciousness with Mana without the Red Cube trying to consu the Mana anymore.
"It seems like the Red Cube is now also filled. Then, I should begin forming the Star." Leo thought to himself. With the Red Cube done, he can now focus on forming the Star.
Whoooosh!
After saying that, Leo quickly began gathering all the Mana in his consciousness into one single point. At first, it was very hard because other than this was his first ti doing this, with how full his consciousness was, it was also nearly impossible to gather them into one single point.
He needed to push all of the Mana in every direction into a single point, which required him to fully focus and concentrate to the maximum limit.
Whoooosh!
It was only after a few hours later when he finally finished gathering them at one point.
Out of a sudden, Leo was completely caught off guard when the Red Cube began releasing the Mana it had gathered within itself.
However, unlike the Pure Mana he had just gathered before, the Red Cube was surprisingly releasing an Elent Mana, specifically the Fire Elent. The Fire Elent Mana seemingly ford into a river as it slowly flows towards the gathered big ball of Mana.
While that was happening, Leo felt that the big ball of Mana would be destroyed, hence he quickly began suppressing them so as to not let them get destroyed, which at the sa ti also began the rging of the Mana inside the big ball of Mana.
"Isn't this what the book had ntioned as the hard way?" Leo soon after beca dumbfounded the mont he discovered this.
Just like what the book had ntioned, it was also possible for a Mage to keep on gathering Mana while forming the Star. But it was extrely hard because he would need to gather Mana from his surrounding, suppress the gathered Mana so that it won't cause any damage to his consciousness, and lastly suppress the big ball of Mana to begin it's rging process. He needs to do all three at the sa ti, which is what makes it extrely hard.
To be honest, he had indeed thought of doing it that way, but since this was his first ti, and also being not yet knowledgeable about Magic related stuff, he decided not to.
However, with the Red Cube's help, what the book had ntioned as extrely hard beca very easy, or more appropriately, it beca smooth as a flowing river, as in literally.
It wasn't only that, it seems like his Star would be different from the others because it wouldn't be ford out of Pure Mana alone, but also with Fire Elent Mana. No, it seems like it would also be ford out of the 5 Elents of Fire, Water, Nature, Earth, and Wind.
Monts later after the Fire Elent Mana began flowing smoothly like a river inside the big ball of Mana, hence tainting the Pure Mana with Fire Elent Mana, the river suddenly turned blue, representing the Water Elent, then green, representing the Nature Elent, afterwards brown, representing the Earth Elent, and lastly, it turned gray, representing the Wind Elent, before finally, the river stopped flowing, indicating that there were no longer any Mana inside the Red Cube. This process continued for an hour straight.
Finally, the big ball of Mana now has 6 different colors, representing the Pure Mana, Fire Elent Mana, Water Elent Mana, Nature Elent Mana, Earth Elent Mana, and Wind Elent Mana.
Leo was sweating buckets while that was happening. Every ti the Elent Mana was changed to the next Elent, it would beco extrely harder for him to suppress the big ball of Mana.
Fortunately, because the big ball of Mana was being suppressed while the Elent Mana was flowing inside, hence it minimized the difficulty by a bit due to the rging, which is still very helpful nonetheless.
"What kind of Star would I have after all of this?" Leo can't help asking himself while looking at the big ball of Mana with different colors.
Although he doesn't know what the result would be, he was a hundred percent sure that it's going to beco extrely powerful, even more powerful than the other Mage's Stars.
"Wait... if the normal Star's function is to simply absorb Mana around every ti and store it inside them for later uses, then what would the function be if it is this unique kind of Star?" Leo thought to himself. To be more exact, would there be added functions? Maybe like, the speed of gathering Mana to the Star increases by many folds or sothing. Of course, based on having 5 Elents, it would also have so kind of functions related to the other Elent Mana, though he isn't sure what exact function it would be. Anyways, it would definitely be great.
Whoooosh!
After asking himself with those future possibilities, Leo returned to putting all of his focus and concentration once again to forming the Star.
A few hours later, the Mana inside the big ball of Mana was finally rged with each other.
Now, the only thing left was to wait while it's forming a shell to finally complete the Star.
But, based on what had just happened a few hours ago, this Star would definitely only be ford after many weeks' passes. And obviously, he wouldn't just be contented with all of that.
"It's ti to take out the Magical resources I've prepared!" Leo said to himself as he quickly took out dozens or so different kinds of Magical resources that he had stolen from the Twilight Bears back at Twilight Forest from his Storage Ring.
Without wasting any more ti, Leo then quickly began absorbing the Elent Mana inside the Magical resources by doing the unique Cultivation technique of the Red Cube, specifically to use a Mana stone to activate the Red Cube's unique Cultivation technique, then convert the Pure Mana into an Elent Mana, before finally consuming the Elent Mana to himself to further strengthen his Star. But because he can't casually change the Elent Mana once he chooses which Elent Mana to absorb, he could only use all of the Magical resources with the sa Elent first before transferring to the other.
anwhile, while Leo was cultivating, five uninvited guests suddenly appeared.
"Here he is!" Cassandra exclaid out loud the mont she saw Leo crossing his legs while looking at the rising sun.
Elizabeth, Angel, and Ash then began cracking their knuckles, intending to wake Leo up.
Fortunately, Charlotte was smart enough to notice that Leo is in the middle of his cultivation.
"Everyone, quiet down!" Charlotte quickly stopped everyone.
"Why? After he had just suddenly ditched us and left us to look for him for half a day. In the end, we will only find him just sleeping over here. But yet you actually want us to just stop and let it go?�� Elizabeth can't help rolling her eyes.
"Wait, Charlotte is right! Everyone, don't touch Leo for now." Angel who also just noticed that Leo is in the middle of his cultivation quickly backed up Charlotte.
"Guys, let explain." Ash said before walking up in front of everyone. She then continued, "Leo is in the middle of cultivation right now, so we should not disrupt him. If we do that, then sothing dangerous might happen to him. Forget about him being angry at us, he might just completely abandon us after we cause him harm. So for now, just wait until he finishes cultivation. Anyways, we can just simply beat him up at a later date."
"Oh, okay then!" Cassandra nodded in understanding.
"Sounds fair to !" Elizabeth agreed.
"Anything is fine for ." Angel agreed as well, though she definitely wouldn't join them.
"Can't argue with that." Charlotte chuckled.
"Then, let's just look for a place and wait for Leo to finish his cultivation." Ash said before she began looking for a comfortable place to wait.
Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, and Charlotte also quickly followed after.
In the end, they still decided to beat Leo up after ditching them and leaving them to look for him for half a day.. The only difference is they would postpone it until he finishes his cultivation.
