148 Chapter 148: Increase in Power! (1/2)
”Wait... I have evolved my constitution again...could it be? ” Dylan was thinking that he was going to take another Heavenly Tribulation. He sat down immediately and tried to sense that sense of impending doom he felt when he was about to undergo his first Heavenly Tribulation.
”Huuu. It's a good thing that I don't have to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation again.” Dylan sighed in relief. He thought he was going to endure that type of gruesome experience once more.
'Maybe it is because I am not the first person to create the Ancestral Veins System? Cosmic God was the first person to achieve that realm after all.' Dylan contemplated. 'Now that I think about it, I was only able to sense the Heavenly Tribulation after I formed the Supreme Core. I guess that it is a probable reason for now...'
”The Cosmic God was a really amazing person. To think he would dare to enter a Godbeast's lair and steal one of it's babies.” Dylan remembered how Cosmic God described how he could acquire 125 extra veins for the formation of the Ancestral Veins.
Cosmic God snatched the newborn egg of a Godbeast called Thousand Tentacle Ancestor. He heard of how the core of the beast could transform one's Spirit Veins System to the Ultimate Veins Realm where the spirit veins are enlarged to an exaggerated extent of 10 times than that of the normal sized ones. Acquiring this will evolve that person's Avatar to an Ultimate! It could even still grow stronger with the bestowment of the Origin Palace Evolution.
Cosmic God snatched the egg of the Godbeast when a a group of people tried to slay Thousand Tentacle Ancestor. When he consumed the yolk of the egg, he felt an indescribable change in his body and he fainted. When he woke up, he was shocked when his Spirit Veins System was duplicated!
He did not dare detonate his original Spirit Veins like how he detonated his Spirit Core to form the Legendary Core since it could result to him falling to Cultivation Deviation. But with a duplicated Spirit Veins System, he decided to try it out.
When he finished detonating it one by one, he was already knocking on death's door. He decided to circulate his energy with this new yet already crippled Spirit Veins System. That was when it incited a new transformation just like how Dylan was able to complete the evolution process.
...
”Hehehe, I feel powerful!” Dylan streched his body and he was amazed by how light and energetic his body was feeling despite the death-incurring torture he just endured a few minutes ago.
”I wonder what my two Avatars would be.” Dylan said while he was doing his training routine.
An Avatar is something which determines the path that a person should follow because it depicts the talent that you inherently posses. It further enhances techniques which are aligned with its nature. Thus, many people would choose Earth Techniques only when they have awakened their Avatars since Earth Techniques are the techniques which are designed with a prefirgured element to train with.
”However, judging from my heritage, it would most likely be related to fire and water.” Dylan thought while he performed the High Spirit Rank technique, Deadly Spiritbreaker, that he chose for himself.
An Avatar is also mostly related with one's heritage. That is why a clan has a trademark Avatar that people would recognize them for. The Ford Clan is the True King Clan which is renowned for its water attribute avatars. The most famous one was Derik Ford's Ocean Swallowing Whale!
On the other hand, the Magma Clan is known for its' inherent fire attribute avatars. They are most renowned by the royal family's Magma Firebird.
”Does that mean I have the possibility of getting contrasting elements?” Dylan momentarily stopped once he considered this possibility. He had not thoroughly thought about what type of Avatar he is going to get as he was preoccupied with stabilizing his business in the city.
”I was originally hoping I could obtain a pair of Avatars with similar attributes so I can easliy create fusion attacks. The possibility of it being contrasting attributes will make it harder to create combinations. There is also the conflict between the attribute of the spirit energy I am going to cultivate.” Dylan did not consider this possibility early on. He was starting feel the problem of his origins.
”My Spirit Veins and Ancestral Veins System could each cultivate one element. If my avatars is truly fire and water, that means I can only use it one Avatar at a time! Because if I try to use them both, my core would not able to handle the friction between the two energies. Not to mention, it would greatly weaken the energy output of my attacks... Damn!” The more Dylan thought about it, the more he felt how much crisis he was in!
”Wait! I forgot about the fact that I train in the Cosmic God Manual where common sense does not apply bevause I train in the Cosmic Energy!” Dylan's eyes suddenly brightened once he thought of it!
The Cosmic Energy is the type of energy which the Cosmic God designed to be similar to the Source Energy of the cosmos. Although he royally failed to do so, the Cosmic Energy still retains some of the qualities and characteristics of the Source Energy. One could even call it the Pseudo-Source Energy.
One of the prominent features of the Source Energy is that all types of energy comes from it! This is the feature which the Cosmic Energy was able to mimic after Cosmic God's years of research. Enabling him to be able to cultivate and use multiple energies with different attributes. This was also one of the reason's that Dylan could use the Thunderclod Monarch Art!
”The Cosmic God Manual is really awesome! My master Cosmic God is really the best!” Dylan was endlessly prasing the Cosmic God Manual since it had solved his most troublesome issue in his cultivation!
”With those problems solved, I guess I can now focus on improving my strength!” Dylan happily remarked.
Dylan was currently piling up the more than fourteen thousand Primal Stones in front of him. It flooded the entire cultivation room. But if there was somebody else here, they would not able to see the Primal Stones since they are invisble to other except for Dylan.
On the night after the auction, Dylan was thinking that the Primal Stones no longer had any use to him now that he was already at the Pinnacle of the 10th level of the Spirit Veins Realm. But there was something that hit him. He had only used the Primal Stones in ones or in twos. How about if he starts crushing it by fives or even tens?
Surprisingly, when he crushed five Primal Stones at the same time, the energy contained within gathered in his arms and became denser. When Dylan absrobed it, it felt as though it was twice if not thrice as more effective than doing it by twos!
Now, Dylan was attempting do it by tens! The energy from within the stones gathered in Dylan's arms and formed an even denser color of white than a Deca-Stone could offer!
”Hahaha, it's like having absorbing three Deca-Stones at the same time! The energy within the Primal Stones has a strange tendency of gathering together and making it even more denser and purer than usual!” Dylan arrived at this conclusion after absorbing the Primal Stones!
Initial 11th Level Ancestral Veins!
Intermediate 11th level Ancestral Veins!
High 11th level Ancestral Veins!!
Dylan continued breaking the more than 14,700 Primal Stones! It took Dylan an hour to finish absorbing to all of them! Dylan felt as if he just absorbednearly six thousand Deca-Stones from it!! He was able to advance from Initial to High stage of the 11th level due to this! He was even close to breaking through to the next stage!
A single Deca-Stone is equal to ten Primal Stones. However, by discovering the principle of the enrgy within the stones, Dylan was able to ascertain that crushing 5 at ones would double its expected amount of energy but crushing 10 at the same time would be four times more the expected amount!
”Amazing! How about if I use this method with the Deca-Stones as well?” Dylan thought of a really rad idea.
