Chapter 156: New Plans (1/2)

After some more minutes, Gravis finally spoke up. ”So, what are we waiting for?”

The Guild Master didn't change his expression. ”For your pills.”

Gravis squinted his eyes and spoke carefully. ”But, don't you have to inform someone or get them then?”

The Guild Master looked like he understood why Gravis asked such an obvious question. After he understood, he only laughed a little. ”I have already informed the elder responsible for the treasure storage,” he explained. ”You might not know, but starting the Spirit Forming Realm, we can send thoughts with our Spirit. I have long informed him.”

”Oh,” said Gravis as he finally understood. He didn't know that that was possible starting at the Spirit Forming Realm, but it seemed to make sense. The Spirit was an extension of the user's mind and soul, so it could logically also touch and convey the user's thoughts. ”I didn't know.”

The Guild Master only smiled slightly. ”Well, there's no reason in telling you. As soon as you reach the Spirit Forming Realm, you would know it automatically,” he explained with patience. ”I know branch manager Aion, and I can guess why he hasn't told you about that before.”

Gravis could also guess why. Aion was basically a physical manifestation of laziness. Even talking with Gravis was already too much work for him. Why would he go out of his way to teach Gravis about Spirit Forming?

After some more seconds, an elder came running and handed a sack of pills to the Guild Master. After that, the weapons appeared again, and the elder collected them. The elder had an incredibly powerful body, just like Red had, so carrying all the weapons and the massive halberd wasn't an issue for him. He quickly left with the weapons.

”By the way, if you don't know about Thought Transmission, you might also not know about our Spirit Space,” explained the Guild Master. ”We can store and retrieve items in our Spirit Space. That's why those weapons kept appearing and disappearing.”

Gravis nodded and thanked the Guild Master. Gravis already knew about this application of the Spirit. He had learned that thing back in his homeworld. For some reason, they had not told him about Thought Transmission.

The sack of pills floated over to Gravis, who looked inside. He saw many body tempering pills, and he smiled involuntarily. 'Those should be enough to boost my body to the ninth level. Only about just as many pills remain for me to achieve my goal.'

Most people in this lower world believed that the ninth level was the highest level of Energy Gathering, yet there was the tenth level above that. That also held true for the body. Just like the Energy could reach the tenth level, the body could also reach that tenth level.

Yet, why did no one in the Middle-Continent know? Some elders were sure to consume many more pills to test it. In truth, they actually did know about the tenth level of the body. However, there was an issue with having a body stronger than one's Energy.

If someone had a body one realm higher than their Energy, their own element would be weakened by the body. It was rather logical. The element had to pass through the body, and if the body were too strong, too much of the element would be wasted while escaping it.
