12 Chaotic (2/2)

”Oh and you should take a look at your display, I made some changes based on what Ipnak said yesterday. I think you will like them.” Said Hope with a slight grin.

Koren immediately activated the display, for a moment, the edge of his pupils glowed gold.

Name: Koren

Spiritual Path: Level 4(75%) {Realm: Spirit}

Human Path: Level ?? {Realm: ??}

Harmonization: None

Elemental Power: 25 (Interchangeable)

”T..This?” said Koren confused and shocked.

”I not only changed the display, I even added to your body's cultivation path. The so called human path is actually my idea of integrating the Dimensional core with your spiritual core. I'm sure this will allow you to create a new unique cultivation path.” Said Hope with some excitement in her voice.

”If I do that, won't I lose the opportunity to cultivate the spiritual path?” asked Koren, obviously concerned.

”Ahh Koren, the spiritual path is not your path, it's the worlds path, it is only there to act as a guide. Just think about what Ipnak said, Draco and Halfrist both were born without the spiritual path, they created their cultivation systems on their own. You have the spiritual path as a guide, which is a huge advantage. Once we successfully establish the Human path, it will triumph every other path in existence.” Said Hope with confidence.

”However, I still think we should wait and see how the other paths are cultivated, I will learn from them, and then attempt to create my own path.” said Koren.

”Koren, slow down, you are taking in too much energy from the shard” said Ipnak after he noticed how quickly the shard was beginning to dim.

”Sorry teacher, I will be more careful.” Said Koren as he slowed his absorption down.

”Patience is key when using spiritual shards for cultivation. If you are too hasty, your core will absorb the chaotic energy, and there's no going back from there.” Said the Chief.

”I did it, I can visualize my Spiritual core.” Said Enri excitedly.

”Good job Enri, now that you can finally visualize your core, I will help you with the purification and absorption of the spiritual shard's energy.” Said Ipnak as he walked over to Enri and put his palm over her head.

Koren could see the flow of Energy inside Enri's body, he could see the energy being filtered out with the chiefs help, but then he saw the colorless chaotic energy flow towards his body. Not just from Enri, but from Haruki as well.

”Don't be surprised Koren, this energy may be chaotic for others, but I can turn it into fuel for the Armor, since it can't function on regular elemental energy.” Said Hope as she felt Koren's confusion.

”The Guardian Armor's power reserves were almost zero back when you first activated it. Now they are around 0.00000011 percent. ”Said Hope as she reassured Koren.

”This is too slow, we can't train properly in front of others or they will think you're a freak. Tonight we will go and look for Spiritual beasts, and use their shards to practice.” Said Hope, showcasing her displeasure at Koren slow cultivation.

”Good job Enri, you need to eject the chaotic energy out of your body, it's like a poison, if it stays in too long, it can cause irreparable damage” Said Ipnak as he felt the chaotic energy leave Enri's body.

”Teacher, can I take the shards with me to practice on my own.” Asked Koren.

”No, you mustn't absorb the energy from a shard without me around, as I could help if any issues arise. You're to inexperience Koren, cultivation deviation is a huge problem.” Replied Ipnak, however just as he was about to continue reprimanding Koren, Sappa walked in.

”Teacher, We have received replies from the two other villages, they will restock their reserves and join us at the border 3 days from now.” Said Sappa in a single breath.
