Chapter 153: The real use of the meditation room (2/2)

He needed to understand its structure before he could start building it. Every single detail needed to be exactly the same. Otherwise, the rune would completely change, becoming something else entirely in place of the World Lotus Rune. It could even harm his consciousness and turn him into a dolt. So Kadyn could not afford to make any such silly mistake.

As his spiritual energy touched the surface of the rune, his elemental pool started vibrating. However, after a brief tremble, it became silent once more. Therefore Kadyn resumed his probing. It took around four hours before he memorized the structure of the rune. Only then he started to build it inside his consciousness. He needed to use his spiritual energy to etch it inside his consciousness beside the elemental pool.

When he began, he felt as if he was tearing his head apart from inside; pain burst into his skull, and his body shuddered. But he gritted his teeth and continued. Slowly an almost invisible line started to etch on his consciousness, but it was really slow.

Nonetheless, Kadyn didn't stop. Pain or no pain, he needed to move forward. Even if it was slow and tardy work to do, he didn't stop. He didn't know why but as time passed; he felt that he needed to become strong; he needed to do something, but he didn't know what that something was. Therefore, he persisted.

But shortly after he faced a problem. He needed spiritual energy to continue building the rune, but he had already used it entirely. Without the spiritual energy, he could not continue building the rune. He fell into a dilemma. Just when a thought of stopping came into his head, a warm feeling entered his body, and it replenished his spiritual energy in no time.

'Formation?' Kadyn thought. It was the formation that was etched on the floor that replenished his spiritual energy. He had always thought that the only use of the formation was time acceleration and mana gathering. However, only now did he realize what was the biggest use of the formation!

Wizards could build the runes with only their spiritual energy. Without it, they could do nothing and let it replenish on its own. Only after replenishing it could they resume their rune building. It was the reason Kadyn was so much surprised when he realized that the formation could replenish it.

If people knew about it they would not stop at any price until they obtain his shop. 'Looks like I can't let others use the meditation room anymore.' He thought. 'I can only let my trusted people use it.'

At the same time when Kadyn was lost in meditation, far away outside the elven village, a group covered in dark appeared amid the thickets.

”Is your intel correct?” asked a voice.

”Yes, milord,” another voice replied. ”I have confirmed Magnus is hiding in this village.”

”Very well,” the first voice said. ”We will paint this village red tonight. We will have a party of Elven blood.”

The group snickered behind the man. Their red eyes glittered as the icy wind rustled and their sharp protruding fangs looked vicious. The man at the front moved towards the village and his companions followed from behind.
