Three months later.
Sam made a breakthrough to Level-5 intermediate level and also achieved second element fusion. Lightweight elements.
He is very happy he can achieve it and this will increase his speed a lot, but there is a problem with this. Light element fusion consumes more spiritual energy than fire element.
He could not survive in this condition for a long time and at most could last for fifteen minutes continuously.
After fifteen minutes he will be completely dry.
So, it's not a very decent option, but one thing for sure is that he has a speed advantage in these conditions.
He was really a flash of light as he moved from one place to another, but this also gave him a lot of trouble, he could control this state altogether. The incorporation of fire elements can be considered elementary school mathematics when compared to the incorporation of light elements, which is as difficult as advanced calculus.
He had a serious control problem with the light element because the light was everywhere during the day, he could join the environment easily.
But he didn't give up. He immersed himself deeply, trying to master it and his ambition did not even stop just to master it. He had some further ideas on how to use this light element especially when he discovered what he could do just by manipulating frequencies.
As for the other matters, he did have some small advances in using neutral spiritual energy like a magician.
Vickers used pure spiritual energy without any elemental attributes to create a radiance of energy and even used it to physically consolidate weapons. This was something he had never seen before, and he could see many uses for this.
He was indeed trying to condense spiritual energy and trying to manipulate it forcefully and he was actually able to change its shape quite well, even though it was the size of his fist, still, it was some progress.
But the most important issue regarding this matter was the use of spiritual energy and the mental tension he had to experience to make the spiritual energy particles condense and make them dense enough to be visible to the naked eye and turned into the unity and form he wanted.
For the first experiment, he bled from his nose. He clearly understood this difficulty and in order to shoot spiritual energy as a beam, he did not even dare to consider it for now.
He tried to do so with the spiritual energy of the energy cells. It reduced the spiritual energy needs of his own body, but the mental tension increased.
Meanwhile, Philip and Jack were also having a hard time.
Especially Philip. Not only does he have to deal with intensive training, he also has to deal with Sam's lectures, which are completely foreign and complex. He doesn't know where Sam got this knowledge from, but some theories make him question his whereabouts.
He had so many doubts about Sam's theory.
But after every doubt was clarified, he had a new world open to him. He had always thought that the metal element was just an accessory for him in close combat and only a favor.
After he obtained the metal manipulation, he had various additional methods he could use metal elements in close combat.
But after these three months, he had a completely new perspective, he didn't think he could see the possibility where he could use metal elements to become the main one. He can hit, kill, survive, and anything he wants.
But his main condition was two points, he had to obtain the fusion of metal elements and also had to obtain the highest level of control he could in metal elements.
He may be lazy and lazy. But he really liked exploring this possibility. The only thing is that every time, Sam lectured him, he felt like he was getting stupid.
As for the artisan lessons, he had to wait until he mastered the precision control of the metal elements.
Jack is still working as hard as ever. Practice all the basics every day and many times at that point.
Overall, their training was a kind of smooth sailing.
But after three months, there was news that made Sam stop his training.
It's about the Usaine sect.
The news was that a young woman had destroyed the entire Usaine sect and there were over five hundred deaths. He ran away and people were still chasing him.
The news was relayed by Usaine's own sect and the portrait of the woman was distributed to all the members in the thunder god temple.
According to the news, he betrayed the faction, created a massacre, and escaped.
He couldn't help but smile at this. He knew this was going to happen. He knew that after they spoke that day, there was no way the sect could sustain him.
Sam had experienced this in his previous life. His previous life was similar to his. He is controlled, manipulated, and made to think from only one perspective.
But once he gets a new perception and thinks differently, everything changes and the changes are almost similar to what is happening now.
He could guess how the event led to him. Surprisingly he was happy for some reason when he heard that Sirona was running away. But he's not too worried.
If he could escape directly from a Perfect realm cultivator, then there was a high chance that they would not be able to find him. So, he doesn't have to worry.
Meanwhile.
Sirona is on the western continent and precisely in the city of Sam.
Ten days ago from today.
Sirona was training as usual when the communication mark he used to spy on the court meeting gave him a warning.
He picked it up and started listening.
"Sirona is getting out of control. There were twenty-five people who were crippled and ten of them were newborn stage cultivators. There were even traps everywhere in the sect. Every disciple was increasingly worried that it would trigger a trap by accident and die from a mistake.
We have to stop it." One of the high officials said in a serious tone.
The sect leader was in a dilemma. He thought that Sirona might have attracted new interest and allowed it for some time to not over-stimulate him. But now since about the past two months, his behavior has become unbearable.
He doesn't know how to control it. If he really forced her into a corner, she might lose someone who was a genius in many trades. That was the reason that stopped him from taking any action against him.
But now, he had to think again. As more and more hidden traps were revealed, he began to realize that Sirona might have more control over the lives of sect members than he, the sect leader himself.
Even if he wanted to kill them all, there was a high chance that there would be some people who might live, but Sirona's preparations said otherwise. He might really have made enough arrangements to kill everyone.
This is a big blow to his ego. He could not digest the thought that someone who was supposed to do his bidding held more control over him.
He tried to brainwash her into being stupid, for this reason in the first place.
But he realized that there was no way for him to truly control a genius completely. The plan will go to waste sooner or later.
"We're going to execute him, but before that, we have to get all the details regarding the trap he's set." The Sect Leader made a decision. He might lose his genius work and skill, but he still needed his position.
Only, the sect leader could have the power to control the lives of sect members. They all need to be ready and call him. Not otherwise.
He had already sent a team of Nascent stage cultivators led by the Pre-transcendent to his residence.
To their surprise, he was not there.
They become very alert and have a bad feeling.
Before they realized it, they heard a strong wind from the core disciple courtyard and when they looked up, they could see a huge tornado sweeping through the core disciple residence, which was the main hall, take down everything and anything on the road.
The elders who were also staying in the core courtyard of the disciples looked at the fleeing Sirona and moved to stop him, but before they realized it, it was before they knew it, Sirona changed his direction and stood on top of the fountain in the middle of the courtyard and injected him with spiritual energy inside.
The courtyard was filled with rich spiritual energy and everything was absorbed into the fountain and then passed through the ground as it moved towards the houses. The formation was activated and ten houses as nodes, the rest were being knocked down and the metal beams of the houses and all the debris were killing people due to the extreme wind force. Before they knew it, the entire core region was a graveyard.
