1525 Chaotic Void Part 2 (2/2)
Dante had three heads and six arms. It stayed at the side as requested by its master, and began to embed sources of power to the Hall of God's magic array.
A divine persona fragment was the first to go. One broken piece would keep the Hall of Gods running for at least a week.
A week with the Hall of Gods up and running would give several months to tens of years, even up to 100, in its internal space.
Saleen went on with researching his Comet Flash from top to bottom. His Comet Flash had not been upgraded since he last advanced, because he was unable to find the key to the breakthrough for the time being. As such, upgrading the Comet Flash would have been a waste of time.
This time, however, Saleen was forced to face the problem again. His movement skills had all been picked from all manner of sources. There was the earth movement magic stolen from Jalin, Quickcloud, Comet Flash, and Rainbow, which he had recently picked up.
Saleen felt somehow that there would be movement methods that were even more powerful to be found in lightning magic. He saw how balls of lightning flew, and there were times where they were able to phase through barriers inexplicably. They were even capable of phasing through magic shielding. While they looked slow in flight, when they burst, not even his Eye of Souls was able to track the balls.
If a ball of lightning went berserk, it would absolutely become one of the most powerful magic spells there were.
The working theories of all magic flowed within Saleen's mind. Despite being of a body of water element, he was learned in all six major elemental magic. He began to learn everything there was to learn with the movement skills offered by the six elemental magic anew.
Magical chants gradually became to form within Saleen's eyes, which were projected to the space before him, coalescing into a new magic rune. That magic rune needed only a single syllable to activate, but it required the use of one's power of the soul to work.
Someone with insufficient power of the soul, or someone who lacked understanding of the rune within their power of the soul, would not have been able to use that spell.
That new magic rune was something that had never been seen before, as it was created by Saleen. The newly created magic rune contained a new power of rules. He was unable to keep the power of rules running all the time, which meant that he had yet to truly master them. They were simply derived from that magic spell.
It was an all-new Comet Flash skill that Saleen had just discovered in his research. The activation speed was still not fast enough at the moment, as it required chanting a single magical syllable. He was unable to instant-cast that skill just yet.
But then again, it would suffice as it was only a spell meant for traveling, which meant that it would not be used in battle much. The spell contained seven movement magic spells, which corresponded to the powers of the six major elements and lightning.
If the components of the spell were used separately, he would be able to instant-cast every single one of them, and he found that to be enough.
”Rafel!” Saleen called. He really had no idea how much time was spent on training at that time.
Rafel replied immediately, ”62 years and a month passed within the hall.”
”What about outside?”
”Seven days in the void,” Rafel answered promptly.
”Stop!” Saleen shouted to Dante, as he saw the weapon spirit was about to chuck a level 17 magic nucleus into the Hall of God's magic array.
He no longer needed to train, and there would have been no way to extract that magic nucleus, once it was embedded. Once the magic array was activated, there was no stopping it. All functions would have only ceased when the power source fed was depleted.
A level 17 magic nucleus was considered quite a precious piece to the Hall of Gods, and Saleen needed to restore his magic chords. Saleen saw the magic nucleus disappearing into the magic array and was unable to stop it. It made his heart ache considerably.
The frost dragon charged inside after hearing Saleen shout. With the magic array up and running, the place only permitted entry and not exit, making it practically a cage. It was possible for one to get out, but at the very moment one burst through the spatial barrier of the Hall of Gods, one would have possibly ended up having all their life force absorbed all of a sudden, becoming a sacrifice to the hall.
The rules of altering passage of time were utterly terrifying, capable of robbing someone of all their life force within an instant.
”I'm fine!” Saleen stopped Guffen, seeing that the frost dragon was about to do something.
The frost dragon glared at Dante with a resentful look and said, ”Saleen, gods are not to be trusted.”
Its level allowed it to tell that Dante was a god instead of any other beings with just one look.
”Dragon, Saleen is my master.” Dante knelt submissively at Saleen's side, behaving devotedly and obediently.
Guffen was stunned. Dante was a level 15 god but was several times more powerful than the common level 15 gods. It was astonished to find such a god kneeling before a mage like a slave, and its divine persona stayed intact. The scene was a miracle like no other to the dragon.
