Chapter 208: Quinn(3) (1/2)

”There comes a stage for every living being where they are required to develop an energy core. It is compulsory for progress. Think of it, Humans, demon beasts, spirit beats, and other races….why do they have a power core, a sort of nucleus to power their moves?” ambiguously said Quinn.

Jake could understand the angle that Quinn was coming from.

He fiddled with his energy construct as he gave his own theory, ”...The former power core, which is the heart for humans can't keep up with the newly improved body. Hence, the creation of an energy core, which would take care of all [Spirit Essence] related issues. Going by that, if one wants to upgrade his weapon to the [Sky Rank] then he would want to create one.”

However, each energy core was unique to an individual. One cannot accept another person's energy core.

So, how should they know a weapon's energy core?

How would they know what core fits a weapon?

Jake raised his brows at Quinn, ”You have the ability to create the perfect energy core for a weapon?”

Quinn scratched his head as he smiled, ”Yes. It requires a sort f perception like the [Sword Symbiosis]'s senses. I can peel off a veil from the material world and sees how the different energies interact with the weapon.”

Jake mused, ”Do all other craftsmen have this perception?”

He had long known what the second level of the [Sword Path] was actually all about.

It was simply him combining his senses with his weapon to peer into a more intimate layer of the mundane plane.

This way he would see the invincible relationship between every physical substance, increasing his attack efficiency in the process.

Jake reckoned that this phenomenon was similar on the second level of all paths.

”Yes and no. This special type of perception is required for them to break through to their second level, but to create an energy core, it needs to be deeper. Luckily, I have achieved just that. However, I couldn't be reckless about it due to my previous cultivation realm,” boasted Quinn.

”You are telling me this because the energy core would be located on the pommel, right?” Jake figured out

Just like how stylish people would position beautiful crystals on the hilt, Quinn too had that idea.

He nodded back at Jake in affirmative.

Jake sighed, ”What materials do you need for the creation of the energy core?”

”Oh, all types of natural energy crystals and energy cores. Also, I will buy the other materials from the market, but I believe you have all of these, ” quipped Quinn.

Right now, his good eye was helping him as he was right. Jake did possess the materials.

After all, the latter had robbed the Aztec's hidden stash.

He replied to Quinn, ”I will give it to you after we finish our discussions.”

Not looking at the construct above him, he left a hole on the pommel to signify the existence of its energy core.

Moving on to the chains, he tried changing the sizes but couldn't decide on the right size.

After a few minutes, Jake finally found it.

He remembered the size of the chains that bound him when he was with the surviving Aztec crew.

He remembered the chains that tied him down when a certain scientist in his previous world decided he was the right person to experiment on.

He remembered the feeling of powerlessness that would later go on to scar him for the rest of his life even to date.
