Between the three towering mountains lies a valley, hidden in an illusion formation that makes it disappear from everyone's eyes. Inside, it is a world of its own, different from the one above it. This world is filled with darkness. Shadow energy captured here struggles to escape but is stopped by the multiple suppression arrays placed here.
Multiple strange vines and grass cover this area, shrouded in shadows and containing a chill presence. Small fruits could be seen hanging from them; these black-colored fruits shone in a violet glow and contained sothing that could kill any being that consud them.
A hand appeared near it and plucked it before bringing it closer to a small mouth. Bite after bite, the whole fruit was consud, but the one that ate it kept moving normally. His hands slid through the tall grass as he moved. It was a strange figure. When he moved, shadows followed him as if serving him and waiting for his orders.
How could shadow energy hurt a being of shadow? The shadows serve him as their master. He disappeared into black smoke and appeared at the top of a rock; this place was at the border. No one dared to approach it, as they knew that it was where the Lord resided; there were two bosses here.
One was the one who ruled over darkness, while the other was the Master of Shadows; both were equally terrifying. They were demons wearing human masks; they liked silence, and disturbing them was asking for trouble. The silver-haired boy calmly took out two black-colored books and started going through them. Ti passed, but the one who lived in darkness only knew night as day didn't exist for them.
He went through it multiple tis before stopping and taking a small breath. The golden light shining in his eyes stopped. He closed his eyes and sat in a ditative position, trying to relax his mind and recover his ntal energy.
The enchanting purple eyes flashed open, containing a mysterious magic circle-like pattern. The boy took out so roasted at and started chewing. He ate until full before stopping and focusing on the task before him. He took out a notebook and a silver-colored Runic pen.
"I have to master it as soon as possible." He clenched the pen in his hands. The silver and black fluorescent runic pen had a transparent glass-like container inside it. A golden-colored ink could be seen flowing inside it, and the pen had multiple patterns of dipping dragons engraved on it.
"Once I master it, I will be able to beco a four-star rune master. It will also help make full use of my shadow creation ability. With it, I will be able to create powerful battle art." His eyes shone, filled with desperation. He took a deep breath and started.
A golden light started oozing out of his eyes as he focused on the process. The energy around him concentrated on the area closer to his pen. His hand moved slowly as he started carving the symbols that were similar yet distinct to the normal ones; they contained more detailing and had so mysterious depths to them.
The shadow energy around him surrounded his pen's tip and blended with the blue-colored energy. They were both repelling each other, but once they touched the golden ink, they blended together beautifully. His hand kept moving slowly from one side to another.
Only stopping after he had created the symbols. They looked like letters in a distinct language. He kept inscribing one after another, nonstop, only stopping after he was finished. These were initial symbols that could be called the alphabets of rune creation. Without them, it was not possible to create runes. These symbols were distinct from the ones used by other rune masters; they had a lot of depth in them.
It was as if they were completely different from the ones used by other rune masters. They were sort of hybrid runes that contained dragon language. It was a very high-level and ancient language that was very useful while inscribing runes. A word written in Dragon Language may require multiple sentences in other languages to decipher its aning.
Initially, it was all working out, but once he started incribing the runes, he discovered that he was making a lot of mistakes, which resulted in false runes. At first, he was frustated and pulled his hair in frustation. He had never faced a situation like this, where no matter how hard he tried, he faced repeated failures.
He then closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm down. After he had cald down, he again took out the two black books and started reading them. This ti, he was able to understand many things that he had not discovered before.
His eyes shone brightly as he understood so concepts that he had not been able to understand before. As he closed both books, he started laughing. "So it was like that," he said as he faced her. "How can I be so foolish? It was not that hard." He tried again, this ti trying the simplest one.
His whole concentration focused on the hand that was inscribing the rune; his will also materialized as he imagined what this rune should do. This ti, it took him a lot of ti. A few beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his heart started racing as he was about to inscribe the last stroke.
'Whoosh'
The air started moving faster around the paper as he finished. A rune appeared on it, shining purple. It was different from the ones he normally incribed, while it was only the most basic one. The smile on his face showed how happy he was after succeeding in inscribing it.
While the process looked very simple, it was divided into different steps. He needed to master them all one by one before succeeding in injecting the rune. The first thing he required was mastery of shadow energy.
Rishi had to go into the depths and learn everything about shadow energy, like its origins, properties, and how it interacts with the world. There was a lot of hidden knowledge in the books that he had to uncover by himself.
The second was balance and harmony; he had to learn to work with shadow energy and mana together. He had to practice aligning his own energy with the shadow energy and mana and finding himself within himself.
The last part was visualization. It was crucial to ingrave his will while incribing Dragonic Runes. He envisions the interplay of will and shadow, forming ntal images of how shadow energy flows and intertwines with mana.
As he continued creating more and more runs, his inscribing speed improved, and he was able to inscribe them faster. His hands also got used to inscribing these new patterns, and one after another, he succeeded in creating different types of runes.
It had been a month since he started the Shaow Vines, and the grass in the area had increased a lot. They have grown to such a degree that they are now touching the feet of Rishi. As if giving him company and making him feel relaxed.
