"Huh?"
Corey's brows shot up in surprise as he stared at his status window.
"tal resistance? Mystic Force How?"
Corey mumbled softly, and Nina's voice resounded in his mind.
[For the mystic force, it's not surprising. The infinity crystal you fused has an unfathomable amount of mystic energy in it, and although you couldn't absorb the mystic energy because you're not a tier 4, a mystic being, your Celestial Mana Veins were able to adapt to the mystic energy.]
[It transford the mystic energy to Mystic Force for you, which ans that when you use your mana, it'd have traces of Mystic Force in it, making it much stronger.]
[The reason why there's no number in front of it is because Mystic Force cannot be graded.]
[In fact, your Astral Mana stat is actually more than what your status screen shows because you have two infinity crystals, but since you're still a mortal, you can't bring out the full potential of the infinity crystals. Only true immortals can.]
Nina paused and waited for Corey to take in all that she had said. Although she knew that even if she kept on talking without stopping, Corey would still be able to understand and listen to all that she had said, the sight of Corey subconsciously opening his mouth was a rare sight that was satisfying to her.
Corey's mouth remained open for a few seconds before it changed to a slight grin.
The most surprising thing from everything that Nina said was that he now had access to Mystic Force.
Apart from Mystic Energy, Mystic Force was an ability that was unique to Mystic Beings. It was what allowed their mystic energy-fueled attacks to be so dangerous.
Not only did it cause greater damage, but it also made injuries caused by mystic energy to be more difficult to heal.
Assuming Corey had his previous Regeneration skill and not his dream healing skill, the rate at which he was able to heal the injuries caused by the Capra King would be much slower.
Not only would he have to use a significant amount of his extrely pure mana to expel the Capra King's energy that was comparable to mystic force that had invaded his body, but he would also need to heal the actual damages done to his body, and that would have taken so much ti.
This was one of the reasons why the Dream Healing Skill was an extrely powerful skill that Corey was extrely grateful to have.
As for his astral mana, he could sense it. He knew that the changes to the quantity and quality of his mana could not be asured in terms of numbers.
If he were to put it into words, increasing his mana stat through the infinity crystal was so much better than increasing his mana stat by absorbing elental stones.
It just felt so different.
When he had only the poison infinity crystal, his mana had a sinister attribute to it that made it more difficult for his enemies or opponents to heal from, although it rarely showed since he either killed his enemy with ease or faced enemies that were much stronger than him.
However, after absorbing the Earth Infinity Crystal, his mana felt… heavier and more solid?
He couldn't explain it in words, but he knew that if he unleashed an attack with his mana, it would feel heavier than even the mana of tier 4s and maybe even tier 5s.
If he was right, his mana was six tis heavier compared to before.
Also, according to Nina's words, only when he beca a true immortal would he be able to use the infinity crystals to their full potential, and when he thought about it, it was not surprising.
From the mont he beca a Demi-Paragon and fused with the poison infinity crystal, his body refused to absorb mana from the infinity crystal and not from the atmosphere, and no matter how much he absorbed from the poison infinity crystal, the energy in it never got depleted.
In fact, it felt like he had rely absorbed a spec of dust in a vast cosmos.
If the title- Infinity Crystals, was actually true, the energy in each infinity crystal should be infinite, and only a being like the Paragon Ancestor or the Supre Ancestor would be able to use the Infinity Crystals to their full potential.
'True Immortal huh?'
[If you're done thinking, let explain why you were able to obtain tal resistance.]
[There are so elental infinity crystals that would give a Paragon more than a single elental resistance. The majority of tals are found in the earth, and this makes the connection between tals and earth extrely close.]
[For instance, if you fuse with an ice infinity crystal, you'll also gain water resistance, but it'd be of a lower level.]
Corey furrowed his brows slightly when he heard this, and he could not help but ask.
'If what you said is true, then shouldn't I have gotten wood resistance also? I an, the connection between earth and wood should be higher than that of tals right?'
[You're partially right. But one thing you should know is that there are so variations when it cos to infinity crystals. The Earth Infinity Crystal you absorbed is not the only Earth infinity crystal in existence, there are more, and there are different types of Earth Infinity Crystals.]
[For instance, one might give a Paragon tal resistance just like yours, while another one might give a Paragon wood resistance, and another might be a pure Earth Infinity Crystal and would only give a Paragon earth resistance.]
[Most Paragons and even Supres don't care about this. Any infinity crystal is a great source of strength for any race, and any knowledgeable being would gladly take any infinity crystal they're able to obtain.]
"Hmm." Corey stroked his chin with a pondering expression for a few seconds, and then he shrugged nonchalantly.
'You're right. The only thing that matters is getting an Infinity Crystal.'
Corey slowly stood with a light smile, and then he looked at Selene who was staring at him like she was looking like a monster.
Although she had no idea what the treasure Corey swallowed was, the energy it gave off sent shivers down her spine.
The energy was so imnse to the point that Selene even felt like there was a massive mountain hovering above her, wanting to crush her to pieces.
To her, the amount of energy in it felt… infinite and unfathomable.
However, to her shock, disbelief, and fear, Corey swallowed the treasure and he ca out fine, no, not fine… stronger.
Much stronger.
His aura itself seed to have caused the surroundings to beco heavier.
"Just what are you?"
Corey chuckled, and then he chopped her forehead, "Your master."
Selene subconsciously winced while holding her forehead with her right hand. Corey shook his head slightly, and then he looked at his status window once again.
'There are so other changes to my status window, mainly my level which is already maxed out, and the proficiency of so of my skills, although I don't really care about all of that.'
Corey frowned as he suddenly thought of the Capra King's weapons.
'It's a pity the Capra King stored his weapons before his death. If he didn't, I'd have had extra weapons to use for an absurd idea of mine.'
Just as Corey had this thought, he felt a change in the spatial stability of the dinsion, and he quickly pulled Selene closer into a side hug.
"We're about to leave. Be alert and careful."
Selene nodded, and then countless visible spatial cracks ford in the air.
