Chapter 2328 – The Fountain
“H…how is this possible? With the interference of the spatial particles you have in your body and soul, it shouldn’t be possible for you to use your energy.
The reason I was able to speak without opening my mouth was that I used my energy, but as Grandmaster Rwaga had said, it shouldn’t be possible for me to use my energy.
He is right, I am incapable of using my Inheritance energy, internal energy, and even soul energy, but there is one thing I could use, the rule-bending power. It took some creativity on my part, but I was able to project it out of me.
I am using a rule-bending power to create the sound; I could easily do such a thing with my Inheritance energy or even Internal energy. Still, those space particles make even using rule-bending power difficult that I could only use around 20% of it.
“I have my ways Grandmaster,” I replied and tried to move my lips to smile, but I could not. “You are one talented fellow,” the old man said before his eyes turned serious.
“The formation we are using is quite expensive, but most importantly, it will not keep you conscious for long.” “In less than a day’s time, you will fall into unconscious again, even if its active,” He said.
He is right but also slightly wrong.
This formation is the best choice I have to remain conscious of; even I was not able to create something better than it. Though I would have to make some changes to it before I begin to extract those spatial particles out of me, and it would be a long process.
“This formation of yours is amazing, Grandmaster Rwaga; with slight changes and the help of the artifact I have, I would be able to begin extracting the spatial particles without losing consciousness,” I said, which again surprised them.
“Really?” Teacher asked in surprise. “Yes,” I replied, “But I will need some time to think about these changes,” I added and closed my eyes slightly, which took all the efforts I have.
I took a calming breath and connected with my core, and to my surprise, there was no resistance. As usual, I had instantly connected to my core and found myself inside it and was shocked by seeing the changes that had appeared.
I did not ask the teacher how much time I had been unconscious, but I assumed it had been a few days or a week at most, but it had been thirty-three days. The growth of plans and the clock I had placed here is proof of that.
My core also got another addition; it is quite shocking, to be honest, seeing both Ashlyn and Nero floating inside it.
In the middle of a small lake, a glass fountain have appeared. The glass fountain is exquisite; it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen, and through it, it is not water that is shooting but liquid fire.
A fire that is dangerous enough to burn Grand Lord easily; now has Nero and Ashlyn swimming inside contently; it is harming them at all from what I could see.
Aside from them, there is another thing that is floating in the fountain; the lamp which I had stored in a place where I store the treasure, now somehow have ended up in a fountain, and the fire inside it seemed to be burning brighter than the last time I had seen it.
“Father, you should come inside; this fire fountain is really good,” Nero said as I appeared beside the fountain.
“It is good for you, not for me,” I replied. To be honest, I wanted to swim inside, too; I had never done that before, but I could feel it would be a bad idea.
I don’t know how these two could swim inside it while I will turn to cinders, but I couldn’t help but feel slightly jealous of them, seeing how Nero is swimming around comfortably, throwing fire at Ashyn, who would dodge it smoothly.
I looked at the statue of otherwordly women whom I could not seem to see clearly despite it being clear.
Even at a distance and up close, the features of the women would be hazy to my eyes, and a moment later, I would forget even those hazy details. It felt like the hidden being is playing games on me.
I looked at the statue for a few minutes, wanting to pierce the hazy veil and at least memorize one hazy detail of the statue on which I had failed miserably.
Seeing that, I shook my head and moved my hand; just as I did, the lamp flew out of the fountain and appeared in my hand, and I looked at it carefully.
“Its brightness really did increse,” I said to myself. The brightness is the measure of power. Somehow staying in the fountain has made the fires inside it even more powerful, which also means controlling the fire would also be even more difficult.
I looked at it for a few minutes before placing the lamp back into the fountain and sitting at my study station. There I drew out the formation and began to study it in even greater detail.
It took me about an hour, but finally, the plan had formed in my mind.
I will not make changes in this formation, instead will create another formation that will work in sync with this formation in extracting the spatial particles. This approach will be more efficient, and healing will be quicker, but it would still take weeks for me to extract all the spatial particles.
As they have said, I am being alive is already a miracle, and it likely related to my core; which has the power to bend the rules, and some of this power had spread to my body, not to mention precious space and time treatures I had used during the core formation.
It is due to these things I am alive; otherwise, I would have died within minutes of getting struck by spatial cracks, even the peak Grandmaster would not have survived that.
