Chapter 111: Ascending Again

Stormy Spiral was a powerful Arcana Technique that was unique to the Harpies Its ability was to lock down an area of space

More i Arcana Technique

When Youthful Abundance saw this, she cried out in shock “You’re a Sixth-Ring Arcana Master now?”

For Arcana Techniques Even though the Flowing Gold Blade had technically been brought to the real Arcana Technique at its core

Obviously, the fact that Su Chen was now able to use a Sixth-Ring Arcana Technique was indicative that he had likely ascended yet again

Given Su Chen’s foundation, it wasn’t too hard for hi Arcana Techniques However, because the Harpies valued their research, they all kept their knowledge and secrets tightly guarded Su Chen hadn’t been able to find any good Sixth-Ring Arcana Techniques, so he had simply never tried to learn any

But that pile of books he had found in the palace contained quite a few Arcana Techniques in addition to its experiendary Arcana Master possessed no shortage of high-tier Arcana Techniques that ran the gaendary However, there weren’t that

The Stormy Spiral that Su Chen had used here was one of the techniques he had found in the book, and he had used it right after learning it

But how could he learn while in battle?

That was actually quite an easy question

With clones!

In order to catch the slippery creatures, Su Chen had pored over the books with six different clones, searching for any Arcana Techniques that fit his needs before learning theh-tier Arcana Techniques was no joke, and creating complete Arcana Techniques was incredibly difficult This hy Su Chen needed a gigantic knowledge base However, Su Chen’s consciousness crystal was incredibly effective What others would need to take a year or so to memorize was dissected by Su Chen’s consciousness crystal in aan Arcana Technique’s Pattern wasn’t enough His control over Origin Energy needed to be on the sa Different Arcana Techniques could be very different, and each Arcana Master would only be able to proficiently use elements that they were familiar with Otherwise, one would be able to increase their cultivation tier just by learning other Arcana Techniques

Of course, the opposite also held true Only with enough proficiency would one be able to control the corresponding Arcana Technique

Su Chen’s wind proficiency was distinctly average He probably would have had a better effect with thunder- or fire-based Arcana Techniques Wind wasthan those other elements

But that didn’t matter

Because he had plenty of resources anda person’s eleth was not a si soether

And Su Chen just so happened to have such an uncoredient on hand

Lifesource Candles!

Lifesource Candles were one of the trump cards that the humans had relied on to defeat the other races They could be used inlives No matter how badly wounded a person was, a Lifesource Candle would allow them to at least survive As such, they were typically used to protect especially powerful individuals The rate at which the candle burned was proportional to the severity of the wound

It had another function as well, however, which was to greatly strengthen a user’s technique

They would basically boost a person’s innate talent and ability This hat allowed Su Chen to meet the necessary requirements to activate the Arcana Technique despite the fact that he inally unqualified to do so

This was the greatest use of a Lifesource Candle

As such, it was quite easy for Su Chen to improve his proficiency with the wind elein Crystal and a Lifesource Candle

It just so happened that he had both of these on hiin Crystals, which he had been planning on using as sacrifices, some ind-type crystals

In order to find a way to deal with those slippery creatures, he had started burning through his supply of Lifesource Candles

Some effects of the Lifesource Candles were temporary, while others were permanent The latter effects were obviously er

But since Su Chen had e, it was hard to say that he wouldn’t make any other improvements

Su Chen’s wind element skill had for Arcana Master He was able to per Then, with the aid of twenty-one Lifesource Candles and large quantities of wind-type Origin Crystals, Su Chen had finally become proficient in it and was now even able to unleash a wind-type Sixth-Ring Arcana Technique

Only someone like Su Chen would be able to cultivate like this

Even though this was a bit extravagant, Su Chen had lots of money What else would he spend it on?

Su Chen had always found it hard to spend money faster than he made it, so he was actually quite happy to have an opportunity to burn through some resources

The Stormy Spiral was able to directly restrict theit so that they could only wait to be slaughtered

Then, Su Chen pounced, waving his Flowing Gold Blade at them

After his control over wind had reached the Sixth Ring, his speed had gone up significantly as a result Even without his Whitetower Teleportation, he was able to advance and retreat like the wind, using the chaos created by the storhter his opponents

He really was like a ferocious gust of wind All of the onlookers were completely stunned

Were these the sa after theh as iron? What about the gravity fields they could create? What about their terrifyingto just a single slash of the opponent’s, but weren’t even scratched e launched all-out attacks at you?!

That’s not fair!

That’s unreasonable!

All of the Harpies present cursed silently Even the Wingless Harpy bandit was stunned

As a Wingless Harpy, he was incredibly proud of his iron-like body, but his physical strength hadto these creatures Noever, this Azure Mark guy had shown up out of the blue and was crushi+ng these creatures like a rinder That was quite a serious blow to his confidence
