Karsha smiled as he observed the scene before him. He had been absorbing cores for the past eight hours, and finally, he had achieved his goal. Thanks to Xian and his women, they had managed to amass a substantial number of calamity cores, ranging from Fire to Darkness. While Karsha had also collected many cores himself, the sheer volume of those given to him by his women left him awestruck.
When he provided them with the cores and other resources they needed for their seclusion, they insisted on giving him all the cores they had gathered. They wouldn't take no for an answer, so all Karsha could do was graciously accept them and put them to good use.
He left a significant amount of cores behind for Xian and Linnea, but knowing those two would likely spend more time together than training, he made sure to leave behind a special type of rune diagram that would allow them to train even faster. If Xian slacked off, Karsha would have the opportunity to scold him; after all, he felt practically like a father to him now.
Using the soul ring, Karsha managed to absorb the energies from the cores several times faster than usual. Now, his elemental affinity for all his elements had reached the Excellent stage.
"I feel much stronger now. Time to enter the Subspace," Karsha sighed. He was about to enter the space when he received a faint, childlike message. Though it was barely audible, he heard it.
"What was that?" Karsha asked, but no answer came. He looked around, finding no one nearby. Sighing, he prepared to enter the space again when the voice reentered his head, a little clearer this time, allowing him to pinpoint its source.
"Soul Ring, you can talk?" Karsha was blown away. The message had come from the Soul Ring. It said, "Absorb...Train." The words were vague, but the moment Karsha realized they came from the Soul Ring, he understood.
"You want to keep absorbing the energy while I train?" Karsha asked. After a few seconds, the voice of a young child entered his mind, "Yes."
Karsha was delighted. Seeing how Elara and Elexa were able to express themselves, he wanted the same for all his items: his sword, mask, and Soul Ring. He wanted them to gain sentience and communicate with him. Now, seeing the Soul Ring starting to awaken, he was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Soul Ring," Karsha said, a smile spreading across his face. "Together, we'll become even stronger." Explore hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire
"Here you go," Karsha said with a wave of his hand, summoning massive bones each brimming with immense energy. The Soul Ring buzzed and immediately began channeling the energy into the Second Core. "Enjoy your snack, little fella," Karsha smiled, relaxing his mind.
"It'll be best to check some of my gains before I enter the Subspace. Coming out now and then would be a waste," he mused, retrieving a space ring. This was the ring he received after comprehending the statue's technique before the blood expedition.
"Huh, spirit crystals," Karsha was blown away yet again. Inside the space ring were two things: piles of spirit crystals and a book.
"System, how many spirit crystals?" Karsha asked.
< 560,000,200 Spirit Crystals >
"Wow, that's a lot," Karsha exclaimed, seeing the staggering number. He was thrilled but astounded. One spirit crystal equated to about 100 million high-tier spirit stones. With this many, he was probably the richest person in the entire kingdom.
"I'll make this auction my bitch," Karsha laughed, his voice echoing across the Time World. "System, put everything into my space ring." After that, he reached into the space ring and retrieved the book.
"100,000 Primordial Era Battle Styles," Karsha's eyes widened at the title. Elara had already told him his foundation was weak and needed fixing, and she mentioned he had a way to do so. Seeing such a book appear in his hands made Karsha incredibly happy.
Karsha carefully opened the book, his eyes widening with anticipation. He knew he was now in possession of something that many would kill for. Although he doesn't know much about the Primordial Era, he knows for one that it's an era of pure strength and power. Anything from that era is a legacy. His own sword is a testament to that. With just a Level 1 strength, it can now unleash devastating power that even Karsha is not strong enough to wield.
So he knew this book was something priceless. Some to be cherished. If what the title of the book says is true, he is meant to gain more than he hoped for from this book. After flipping open the book, Karsha's gaze landed on a message written in normal language.
"To the one who holds this book," the message read, "May you find strength and wisdom in these battle styles. I was once a humble practitioner, who came upon a legacy and was transformed from a carp into a dragon. I rose from a Master Swordsman to a legendary figure who cleaved through the heavens with my sword
I challenged millions of practitioners and mastered millions of sword techniques. In the end, I became bored since nobody wanted to duel with me. In my loneliness, I took on a project. I took on the challenge of creating battle styles from the millions of techniques I have mastered. Inside this book are 100,000 battle styles I created and tested on thousands of individuals.
Be happy, because mastering even one of these will set you on the path of true swordsmanship. "
Karsha felt a wave of excitement. This book was not just a treasure trove of knowledge; it was a personal legacy from a skilled warrior. He eagerly continued flipping through the pages, each turn revealing more of the book's secrets.
On one page, he saw a runic representation of a battle style named "Eternal Thunderstrike". The runes were so detailed they almost seemed to hum with energy. Karsha imagined the sheer force of a lightning strike infused with such power. His eyes sparkled as he imagined mastering this style.
Another page displayed a mesmerizing drawing of the "Celestial Phoenix Dance". The intricate feathers of the phoenix were depicted in mid-flight, with lines indicating powerful, sweeping strikes. "This would be perfect for aerial combat," Karsha thought, his excitement growing.
As he turned the pages, a complex ancient diagram titled "Dragon's Roar Torrent" appeared. The diagram illustrated a series of cascading waves of energy, symbolizing an overwhelming offensive technique. "This must be a devastating attack," Karsha murmured, feeling a surge of anticipation.
Further along, he encountered the "Shadow Veil Cloak", depicted through a series of shadows and intricate patterns. The battle style seemed to involve blending with darkness, making one nearly invisible. Karsha grinned, picturing the strategic advantage such a technique could offer.
Another intriguing style called "Raging Inferno Surge" was illustrated through vivid, fiery illustrations and swirling energy patterns. The diagram depicted a technique that unleashed waves of intense fire. "This will complement my Fire Element skills perfectly," he thought with a nod of approval.
Another page he explored was dedicated to "Titan's Grip Form", with illustrations of immense strength and power. The technique appeared to focus on enhancing physical strength and delivering earth-shattering blows. Karsha couldn't help but admire the raw power it promised.
Each battle style in the book was a masterpiece in its own right, showcasing a blend of ancient wisdom and unparalleled skill. Karsha was ecstatic. The book was a goldmine of battle techniques, each offering a new avenue for growth and mastery.
"This is incredible!" Karsha exclaimed, his excitement barely contained. "I've never seen such a collection of techniques before. Each one has its unique power and potential. With this, my training will reach new heights."
"Indeed, your luck is not bad" From inside Karsha's soul sea, Elara spoke sounding a little happy. Although she hid it, Karsha sensed it.
"Sister Elara, do you know who this famous figure is" Karsha asked. Since the two inside his soul space are from the Primordial era, he had to ask.
"Karsha, you've known too much already, it will be best if we reserve some of these questions for when this is under control. You might not be able to sense it yet, but the Karma we have invoked already is enough to doom anyone. It's a miracle you are still fine.
Karsha's heart pounded hearing that. He doesn't know what any of this Karmic energy and whatnot is about, but hearing it can destroy him, he becomes a little scared.
"You are right Sister Elara, I will just focus on training," Karsha said turning his gaze back to the book. 'Once the system gets to a certain level, I won't bother asking you two anything again. After all, there is no Karma from something I control' Karsha smiles inwardly comforting himself.
However, inside his Soul Sea, Elexa stared at Elara and asked, "Are you really going to tell him? Its of no use isn't it"
"The last time I saw him, he was preparing for the war. He said when we meet again, I should ensure his foundation is solid, right now, he has obtained something that can help him, for now, he has no reason to know anything about his past" Elara shook his head.
"You have changed," Elexa said looking at Elare curiously.
"I am happy, you should be too. After many years, we can walk the world again with the one we are meant to follow."
"By the way, She has awakened or at least in the process of awakening" Elara suddenly changed the topic.
"Who has awakened," Elexa asked.@@novelbin@@
"You know, the Dark Queen. She is on this island and has already reconnected with him." Elara smiled
"What!" Elexa nearly fell on her butt hearing that.
Karsha who has no idea what the two are gossiping about places the book into his inventory and enters the subspace space. For now, he has techniques to master. His first task is to master the "Lightning Phoenix Drive" movement technique.
What do you think?
