Chapter 53: Choosing a new Element?

’But which element, I could think of only three elements: light, life, or holy. Their mention was in the book of Lin Fang, all three of them were rare elements.’

But when he thought of them he felt a strong connection to each of them like every other element—they were waiting for him to just master them.

However, he had read that to use holy elements, one had to borrow the power through a connection with god. He didn’t know about any gods and even if he knew he didn’t want to entangle himself with it. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

With holy elements, he did have the ability to heal but through his connection with the divine, he would create what the church called miracles. That was what he read about it.

Still, if that was the case wouldn’t that element be a waste of time for him? He didn’t think about it much now. Once he traveled to higher realms he would try to find information on them so he could learn how to use this holy element which was said to be one of the most powerful elements against undeads.

As for the light element, it would do some minor healing, and was said to have powerful attacks and even was used for increasing speed. It was a versatile element, which was why Lin Fang said it was one of the strongest elements.

The Life element which he had chosen to master was said to be related to vitality. It was the ideal element for healing, regrowing arms, broken bones—everything, which those other two elements would struggle with, light and then holy which was said to be borrowed power that Lin Fang described.

He didn’t like the way it sounded.

If he was gonna use holy elements, he wanted to be the source of his own power, created by his own mana, not some so-called miracle created by the connection of some god.

The life element was even said to restore people from the brink of the dead if someone had enough mana and control over the element.

’I had started to realize that little by little I was increasing the amount of elements I would master. I did have all the elements. I had the time because of my treasure, so why not? But one at a time and at my own pace. I would master all elements one day in the future.’

’I didn’t even know if I was aware of all the elements in the world.’

’Now I needed to master Lightning, Space, Life, and then Time, which I would try to, at least reach at the same level as my Ice and Wind Elements.’

Getting up from the ground first for a few hours he practiced to control his strength, by running, jumping, punching, and various types of things including the use of mana body enhancement little by little.

It took him about 8 hours to get used to his own strength with or without the use of mana. Now this time he used the same mana enhancement in his body. With a boom he vanished from his spot, leaving only dust, and reached the rock thrice the size of his which was supposed to be the target for his lightning magic practice.

He had learned from experience that to use any element, it would need his mental power which was the term he learned from Lin Fang, which he said was the intelligence stat. The more imagination power the easier it was for you to cast a bigger and more destructive attack.

But for control over elements, there were no shortcuts. He had to train for months to learn to compress ice and wind, like using wind to enhance his speed. It required precise control over the element. One mishap and instead of increasing your own speed through wind, you would stumble during a fight. A death wish in serious scenarios against monsters.

He started using his mana. Using his will he tried to create a lightning bolt to hit the target rock. It was wild and untamed. He could feel the element. He more or less used 100 mana in this attack.

It took only a few seconds as a huge lightning bolt the size of 10 meters struck with a thunderous sound.

Boom.

The destruction caused by it was something that he hadn’t anticipated fully. Two meters of rocky surface got torn apart, black burning marks on the ground, but he didn’t land on the rock he had targeted but instead right next to it on the ground.

He deflected the chunk of shattered ground that tried to hit him using his shield made out of Ice element. It would have been easier to deflect it using the wind element and just change the direction, but he had chosen to show the Ice element in public so he was focusing more on it.

In terms of sheer destruction, he believed this lightning bolt had come quite close to the spear he had created before, using more than twice the mana before.

Which he believed to be the effect of the increase in the rank of elemental affinity, and the fact he used two elements to make that attack focusing only on destruction, and even then this simple raw thunder came close to it, surprised him quite a lot.

’Hell, I am starting to become strong.’

This thought came as a realization to him, but he didn’t give it much thought and continued focusing on practicing his element.

It started with hours and it turned to days and a month.

A month was the amount of time it took for Leon to master the Lightning affinity at the same level as his Ice element, but he didn’t stop as it had happened quite faster than he had imagined. He had thought it would take two months for him to reach that level so he decided to continue.

He trained for an extra month, focusing on using as much amount of mana as he could to create powerful attacks made out of compressed lightning. This method of practice would focus both on his control over the element and at the same time increase and sharpen his mental imagination, as he found out that having over 1000 mana didn’t mean he would create an attack using 1000 mana.

He realized once he reached the 350 mark that was where his limit lay. The mana went out of his control. The creation would go out of control, either by self-destruction if he wasn’t fast enough or just dissipate if he was careful.

The first time that happened, he almost got turned to ashes because of this. 350 mana with his rank 7 affinity, and it was the time when his attack wasn’t controlled. That massive blast of pure destruction even when in the last second he forced a shield out of Ice around him.

The result.

Ice shield didn’t even last for a second. His body got burned. He was flung away losing both his arms and one of his legs gone, punctured lungs, sizzling muscle. He would have died after a few minutes in real scenarios, but he got healed back to his previous state in a minute, but that pain was torturous.

He screamed in agony.

Trying to remember about it gave chills to his body.
