Chapter 82: Accident
After Athan used Attract and Repel Intent the next day, His current Main test was successfully cleared and received 60 Credits.
[ New Main Test ]: Comprehend 2 Elemental Intent at Advance Level---> Reward:- 150 Credits. ( Time Limit: 3 years )
\' Since I got 60 points now, Then we should be able to buy the consciousness carrier artifact. \' Thinking about it, He turned towards Tiana who was sitting beside him, and asked.
" How many points you currently have? "
Tiana answered after a second, " 54 Credits. I initially had 74 Credits, but I bought those seasonings which cost me 20 Credits to buy 5 types of different seasonings. "
" I see...We are short of just 9 Credits to buy a thing that will help increase your comprehension speed with the way that I\'m doing. Anyway, You are just a bit away from comprehending Dark Intermediate Intent so after you achieve that and complete your main test, We can go buy that thing. "
Tiana nodded with a smile as she felt happy.
Afterward, Both of them once again started comprehending intents. Tiana also lit up the 2nd incense as the first incense was long gone. Their duration is only 4 hours.
But that much time is enough for it to help clear one\'s mind and let them enter the deep meditation.
...
After 4 days, Athan comprehended Advanced Level Fire Intent before Tiana could comprehend her Intermediate Dark intent which she was very close to achieving.
But Just as he comprehended the Advance level of fire Intent, Something started to happen inside his Energy Realm.
The Fire Crystal turned into strange glowing red energy before it left his Energy Realm and started to refine his body.
Athan was shocked as this process was similar to how his body was refined for the first time.
His body twitched a bit as the energy was refining his body.
\' Feeling this pain after a long time....\'
He could already tolerate the pain of his body being refined by one energy so he just sat there and let the Crystal energy do its work while he fell into thought.
\' Why did the fire crystal refined my body after I reached the Advance level in Fire Intent? And why didn\'t refine my body when I comprehended Elementry Level and Intermediate Level Elemental Intents? \'
After thinking for a second, He easily guessed the reason, \' It should be because of the absence of the Origin Energy at that time. hmmm...I should also buy some Blood Energy Pill so that my black whirlpool can give me blood affinity. That Bloody Threads flowing method is a good defense Flowing Method. \'
After 20 minutes, The Crystal Fire energy returned to his Energy Realm before once again becoming solid Fire Crystal and started spinning to absorb the Fire Origin Energy.
His other Crystals were not spinning because they had hit the limit but since his Fire Intent reached Advance Level, He could now absorb more Fire Energy.
Seeing that Tiana wasn\'t done yet, He continued and started to comprehend Water Intent.
But After a day, Tiana comprehended the Intermediate Level of Dark Intent as a smile formed on her face.
[ Main Test, Comprehend Two Elemental Intent at Intermediate Level cleared---> Reward: 20 Credits.]
[ New Main Test, Comprehend a Mystic Intent at Elementry Level---Reward: 20 Credits ] ( Time Limit: 1 year )
...
\' Until Athan wakes up, Let me decorate our home. \' With a happy smile, She flew away and started to gather flowers and other such things before also designing the wood.
In two days, She visited various nearby habitats and brought things to decorate the house. She even coloured the wood with the use of colourful plants.
" Let\'s bring some more fishes and veggies. When Athan wakes up, I\'ll make some tasty dishes. "
....
After another two days, Athan opened his eyes and threw a small ball of water energy.
[ Main Test, Comprehend Two Elemental Intent at Advanced Level cleared---> Reward: 150 Credits received. ]
[ New Main Test, Comprehend a Mystic Intent at Advanced Level---> Reward: 60 Credits ] ( Time Limit: 1.5 Years )
...
\' These many Credits are more than enough to buy Consciousness Carrier and quite a few Elemental pills, Guess I\'ll awaken a few more affinities for my future concepts. \' Thought Athan with some excitement.
Looking around, He didn\'t spot Tiana but he could smell a good aroma.
Standing up, He turned around only to get surprised. Their Plain wooden house was now painted with various color designs and there were also various plants with flowers neatly arranged inside many pots.
He entered the house and it was also decorated beautifully, He then entered the kitchen where Tiana was cooking food.
Noticing Athan coming in, Tiana smiled excitedly and said, " Oh you woke up! Perfect timing, I Just finished this dish. This grilled fish has a special kind of fruit paste inside, Just try it. "
Athan took a bite and was surprised as his eyes lit up, " Damn it\'s so tasty. "
" Hehe, of course. I was trying many things for the last two days and managed to create a few good dishes. The Ingredients alone are also delicious like those fruits and fishes but once created into a dish, It becomes even tastier. "
Athan nodded a smile as he licked his lips, " Indeed, That fruit paste was spicy and sweet both and mixed very well with the taste of fish and the seasonings on it. "
...
After Tiana cooked a few dishes, Both of them ate them before entering the virtual world.
First, They bought The Consciousness Carrier Artifact which was a silver thread with a small white stone at each end.
[ Consciousness carrier ]
- Put the small white stone on two people\'s forehead and inject a small amount of Mystic Force to create a connection. When it is done, The two connected people\'s Consciousness can travel to another person\'s body through the white stone and silver thread.
...
" Let\'s go to Pill shop, I want to buy some pills with my remaining Credits. "
The reason he bought pills instead of Origin Crystals was because pills had more concentrated Origin energy in them. These energy pills are usually used to refill energies during fights.
Even after buying the Consciousness Carrier, Athan still had over 80 Credits so he bought 8 Origin Pills which cost 10 Credits each, They are considered the highest tier refilling pills for Origin Intent Plane users as they can fill up entire Energy seas at Master Level.
( Energy Sea cap increases when the user comprehends the next level of intents in elements as mentioned previously. So Advanced Level Intent = Advanced Level Energy Sea. Master Level Intent = Master Level Energy Sea )
...
The 8 pills Athan bought were namely: Blood Origin Pill, Ice Origin Pill, Mist Origin Pill, Sound Origin Pill, Metal Origin Pill, Magma Origin Pill, Magnet Origin Pill, Shadow Origin Pill.
After coming to the store He also found additional information.
The price of all Origin Pills was not the same and he also found out how these elements came to be.
The Elements like Magma, Mist, Ice, Magnet, Shadow, etc were a mixture of Basic elements.
It was known that Long ago, People could only practice Basic Elements like Fire, Water, Light, Dark, Space, Time, etc with single nature but When they reached higher planes, They started combing Energies to create new energies, and whenever new energy was created, It felt like the world was undergoing subtle change and sources of these energies would be birthed.
" Although it\'s said that there is no proof to this theory, It\'s pretty reasonable. " Athan said after reading the information.
There were also some details about the combination of these elements like:
Fire + Earth = Magma.
Water + Air = Ice.
Lightning + Metal = Magnet.
Earth + water + fire = Diamond.
Light + Dark = Shadow.
etc...Each of these Basic elements, When combined create new elements according to theory.
But now there are already lots of Elemental sources found of all kinds of elements, Especially on Superior Sectors and the only one Legendary Sector.
...
...
After buying the pills, Both of them returned to the real world.
Athan first wanted to try out the Consciousness Carrier Artifact so after putting everything else aside, He stuck one white stone on his forehead while another on Tiana\'s forehead as they both sat across each other.
" Add a small amount of Mystic Force. "
Tiana nodded before closing her eyes together with Athan as both of them activated the Artifact.
Afterward, A silver path appeared inside her Mystic Realm in which she sent her consciousness.
There was also a silver path in Athan\'s Mystic Realm.
After a while, He felt and sensed something.
From the silver path, A white blurry silhouette appeared which was Tiana\'s consciousness.
But suddenly, something happened he didn\'t expect.
Just as Tiana exited the silver path and stepped foot in Athan\'s Mystic Realm, The black whirlpool\'s pulling power suddenly appeared and forcefully dragged Tiana\'s consciousness inside.
Athan\'s face changed as He grabbed Her consciousness and used all of his Mystic Force to drag Tiana back which stopped her from being dragged in.
But After not even a second, an even more powerful pulling force appeared and dragged Tiana\'s consciousness towards the black whirlpool along with Athan\'s consciousness.
" STOPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!! "
Athan tried his hardest but there was no stopping as they reached the depth of the black whirlpool and...
Tiana\'s consciousness disappeared inside the so-called door he always felt while he was kept outside.
" NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! "
He used all of his Mystic Force and even consciousness as hit the door of the black whirlpool but no matter what, He couldn\'t enter and couldn\'t open it.
" FUCK FUCK.....WHAT IS GOING ON?!!! "
He tried to calm himself down but all kinds of feelings inside him were preventing him.
Right then, He heard a voice.
" A-....."
" Athan...." " Can you hear me? "
Athan was shocked as he hurriedly said, " I can, I can hear you. What is going on? What happened to you? "
" i-I don\'t know but I am in this strange place, There are Trees, white lake and other--....."
Athan panicked when he couldn\'t hear her voice but soon it was heard again.
" But there is a little girl sleeping here...She--...."
....
" What? What girl? TIANA...can you hear me? I can\'t hear anything. " Athan shouted but there was no more response.
Athan controlled his consciousness and opened his eyes which were now red.
His heartbeat was also abnormally fast...
He then took deep breaths to calm himself before thinking.
\' Tiana is...alive. Only her consciousness is separated from her body...\'
Thinking about it, He checked the Heart of Tiana\'s body and sighed a relief when he felt that it was still beating.
" But...It won\'t beat for long. I need to seal her body in Ice. "
He then took out Ice Origin Pill and ate it to awaken his ice affinity and seal her body in ice.
" That black whirlpool.....What the actual fuck is that? Also, Tiana should be safe considering her voice which didn\'t indicate that there was any danger and what was she said about a little girl sleeping?....."
Shaking his head, He clenched his fists and thought, \' Looks like I\'ll have to uncover the mystery about this black whirlpool and the nearest bet would be to step into Soul Altar Plane and unlock my Soul Realm. I feel like that Black whirlpool is related to my soul and soul realm. \'
