230 Luxury & Transfer

Name:Omni-Mastery Author:LightningAsura
The last task on my preparation list was the long awaited 'birth' of the Thunder Lion's descendant, and of course the half sky dragon that I had with me since I also managed to attain the water attribute.

The process itself was quite simple, the only thing that restricted me from doing it till this point was the rank of my elemental seed.

However, now that I managed to cross that threshold and enter the 3rd stage, all 6 of my elemental seeds had obviously became rank 3 elemental seeds, which meant that they could be treated as actual elemental sources!

According to the 'Lightning Cell' book, once I reached the 3rd stage, I could easily perform minimal cell division to produce an inferior elemental source using a tenth of my elemental seed, which would recover normally in less than a week with simple element absorption sessions.

Of course, 'inferior' didn't mean that it was bad, it was just worse when compared to the whole elemental seed created from a great technique such as 'Lightning Cell', but in fact, that tenth could easily perform as good as a natural elemental source or even better!

But according to Long who I asked back then when I was still contemplating if I should perform the 'birth' in the light domain or not, the system space also came into mind, which Long easily shot down, saying that process such as 'Birth' or 'Hatching' can't take place in the space.

On the contrary with my small sum of First Stage Points, I still had over 20 hours of time left, and with the only thing left in my to do list for now being impossible, I could only use this time for…

'Luxury time.'

A small grin appeared on my face, as I was quite excited about spending the whole 20+ hours of time enjoying the modern word luxury that could only be accessed in the system space!

`~~`~~`~~`

With the somewhat unlimited options that I had, the time to be spent almost the 0 count, used mostly in luxury hot tub and a nice true shower alongside a final luxury meal that wasn't as limited as what I usually ate…

While I could have spent this time trying to fuse the new elemental attributes into weapon concepts, but since I would have to start almost from scratch, it would have been a waste not to enjoy my time in the system space just to take the first step…

[Alright, time's up.]

"Am I going to be sent to Nature Domain the same way as last time?"

[It will be somewhat different, but not by far, you will see for yourself.]

"Alri-"

Not even waiting for me to finish my word, the same old flash of light covered my whole body as I appeared in a void which was colored in a familiar color.

'A bit similar to that crystal…?'

{-ou will get there-}

"Ahem, can you start from the beginning?"

{Oh, were you not listening?}

When I entered the system space, I was apparently out of the shackles of time as I was transported the second we left the domain and came here after the whole 24 hours while the Dragon Ancestor was still completing the same sentence.

"The transfer process just made me lose my concentration for a second…"

{No problem then, it's not like I'm in a hurry anyw-, wait a second.}

"Hmm?"

{Why do you suddenly seem to possess your own elemental source…?}

'Well, it's not unexpected.'

I already had a backup explanation in mind as I had this situation as a possibility, after all, this was the 'Dragon Ancestor', it wouldn't be too hard to at least realize the elevation in my state…

"Oh? I advanced to the third stage?! I didn't really notice to this point, but now that you mention it, I heard something like the domain's gratitude or something like that, maybe that helped me reach the third stage…"

{Hmmm, you were indeed that close to reaching the '3rd stage' that you are talking about, but something else doesn't feel right, your elemental presence seems to have changed as well…}

'Ah, I didn't want the conversation to go that way…'

While explaining 'Cell-Mastery' to the Dragon Ancestor wasn't something that I would do for no reason, it wouldn't be that hard for him to accept it since he seems to have a similar ability, however, the hardest part to explain was the concept of the 'System Space' that allowed me to do stuff for a whole 24 hours out of the normal timeline…

{Well, I'm not too familiar with you humans' way of elemental practice, so I won't ask too much, you can tell me about that later when you feel like it…}

It seemed as if the Ancestor had realized something but it looked like he was too carefree to bother for now…

{Let's get back to the explanation then… Since I'm using a kind of space related ability to transport you to the next domain for convenience, we will have to access a space node that's already there, so you can either get there using one of the spatial transfer formation in the Nature Domain, or just go through one of the 'Corruption Gates' of those stupid demons.}

'That does make sense.'

Thinking back to the way I was transferred back then, it definitely matched the reason that the Dragon Ancestor was talking about…

"I will choose the 'Corruption Gate' option then."

As it would be too hard to explain where did I come from to the owners of the spatial transfer formation, I chose the easiest option, one that was similar to last time's transfer.

'He seems to know the truth of the gates as expected.'

Using the true name of the gates, not dark caves nor demon caves, it was only expected of the Dragon Ancestor to know about the truth, unlike other humans in the game who still didn't know how to get the first part right after years of research.

{Alright, off you go my child… and yes, remember that you can always contact me if you want to chat!}

It appeared that since I evolved into a draconic human, the restriction on our mental connection became far too flexible as the bored Dragon Ancestor seemed to use this fact to relieve his boredom...

[ You have absorbed the essence of a 'Corruption Core', purification in progress… ]

[ You have received 152,269 EP! ]

'Oh…'

It seemed that the difference this time was that the transfer had only used the corruption gate as a medium, immediately destroying the corruption core and thus transporting me outside of the gate without much nuisance to deal with...

Finding myself to be at the top of a mountain was a bit surprising, but with how varied the locations of the 'Corruption Gates' that I encountered in my two month grind back then, the surprise effect didn't last that long…

'Let's get to it then.'

Not wanting to waste much time, especially since the blood contract was still there, and considering that this mountainous area seemed a bit deserted was perfect as to not attract that much attention, I already took out the 'hatchable eggs' out of the ring...
