Chapter 112: Saving?
Lin Wu had been thinking of what to do in case clan head Lu and others were not able to save Shirong, and all of his ideas led to one thing, saving Shirong himself. But the thing was, he didn’t know if he was even qualified to do that.
If even a Nascent soul realm cultivator was having a hard time and did not dare get close to the spatial rift, Lin Mu knew that he would be a fool to rush in. Right now, the only reason he was safe was because he was too heavy and nailed to the ground.
Seeing that all his progress and investment were about to go to waste, Lin Wu felt his heart ache and he decided to help.
Lin Wu triggered the innate skill cellular manipulation and started to change his form, when he heard a notification that made him stop.
~Ding~
——
RIFT ENERGY ANALYZED: Confirmed to be a type of qi.
——
This one sentence was enough to solve the problem for Lin Wu. New ideas appeared in his mind and he found the one that was the most likely to work and may even be able to hide his identity.
“If it’s just qi then my skills should work. From what I’ve seen radiation and qi don’t really mix, though I still wonder why.” Lin Wu muttered to himself before looking around the area and ensuring that he was in the right position.
***
Shirong was now wondering whether all his luck had finally run out today. He had been having one misfortune after the other ever since getting the green crystal spear and even wondered if it was cursed.
“Did I use up a lifetime of luck in obtaining an immortal weapon?” Shirong asked himself as his grip on the rope weakened.
“NOOOOO! YOUNG MASTER!!!” Clan head Lu yelled as he saw Shirong being sucked towards the spatial rift.
He was regretting that he didn’t pay a close eye on the courtyard and ensured Shirong’s safety. While he didn’t know how a spatial rift appeared here, he was still betting on the fact that it could be the scheme of an enemy.
He knew Shirong had been in seclusion and perhaps an enemy had taken advantage of this and somehow sneaked in to do something like this. But just as he had given up all hope, a bright light blinded him.
~SHIIIIIIIG~
A high frequency sound assaulted the people’s ears as they slammed their hands on their ears.
“What… is… that… horrible… noise…” Lu Peng uttered with difficulty as he squinted his eyes.
The others had similar reactions and couldn’t help but look towards the source of the sound which was coming from the spatial rift.
Shirong had a dull look in his eyes as he helplessly looked at the spatial rift that was about to swallow him. But when he was just two meters away from it, he saw something appear in front of his eyes. It was glowing brightly and was two meters long.
It didn’t take him long to realize what it was.
“The spear?” He muttered, feeling speechless.
~Weeng~
Then a wave of sickening energy assaulted everyone in a radius of a hundred meters. The energy made them feel hot and their skin was itching for some reason.
~Shua~
The suction force that was acting on Shirong suddenly fell to zero and he fell to the ground with a thud. He looked at the spear and could feel the same energy he had felt back when one of its seals was released. This was a bit different from before though, as the energy was more contained and directed towards the rift.
From his connection with the spear, he could feel the large amount of spirit qi that was stirring inside the spear. But strangely enough, the energy being emitted by the spear was not spirit qi at all.
“Is it elemental qi, fire attribute spirit qi perhaps? No! While it is hot, it’s not exactly the same.” Shirong muttered to himself.
~Huala~
An almost visible line could be seen in the air as Shirong saw two energies colliding and canceling each other out. It took him a second to process this, but he realized what the energy coming from the spatial rift was.
“The spatial attribute spirit qi… it’s being repelled?” Shirong uttered in disbelief.
Shirong had learned about spatial attribute spirit qi a long time ago when he learned the theory behind the elements. Most people only knew of the nine elemental attributes. But he had learned the full theory behind it in his clan.
The elements were classified into; five mortal, four heavenly, and three primordial elements. The five mortal were; fire, wood, metal, earth and water. The four heavenly were; Wind, lightning, light and darkness. And finally, the three primordial were; Space, time and chaos.
The three primordial elements were relatively unknown to most people in the world, and only certain Powers knew the entire theory behind them. Becoming a nascent soul realm cultivator would qualify one to come into contact with the three primordial elements for the first time.
The element that they would experience was none other than the spatial element.
The difficulty in controlling the elements increased exponentially from mortal to heavenly to primordial. Even learning to control heavenly elements was an impossible task, if one didn’t have the talent and the right cultivation technique.
Shirong was lucky that his Immortal Sky shaker art was one of the cultivation techniques that allowed one to comprehend two of the heavenly elements: Wind and lightning. He knew the difficulty that came with the immortal Sky shaker art and couldn’t even begin to imagine how immensely difficult it would be to control a Primordial element like space would be.
From what he had seen in the Ji clan’s secret records. There were no cultivation techniques that allowed one to gain an understanding of the three primordial elements.
But the situation currently was something that didn’t match the well established and undisputed theory. There was actually something able to compare with the Spatial element!
