Chapter 747: Equilibrium

These past few days, Emery had completely focused on chanting words and funneling the spirit energy within his body according to the technique given to him by the Abbot.

[Dao Divine Technique]

There were a total of eight stages within the technique. So far, Emery had only managed to master the fourth stage. 

However, thanks to the epiphany he suddenly received a few days ago, Emery has already gotten the gist of it. Now he needed to bring that understanding to fruition.

What he needed to do wasn't just about balancing the two opposite forces residing in his body, but to let them constantly flow and smoothly transition with each other. Just like how the day turns into night and back to day again.

However, the reality wasn't as easy as one's thoughts. Even though Emery knew what he had to do, this understanding alone was not sufficient.

He didn't have the necessary force to push the channel between his dark core and nature core together yet. So he could only stare at the two spirit cores slowly rotating inside his body.

His dark core was actually ready. In fact, it was more than ready. 

The problem was his nature core. It could not match the dark core. The differences between the two were what made it difficult for them to reach a state of equilibrium.

The last one year Emery's body has been exposed and filled with the Khaos energy, that added with the corruption that seemed to enhance it, Emery's dark core had been constantly brimming in power, so much he was almost overwhelmed with it.

That's why, Emery has been focusing his attention on training with [Nature Grasp] these past few days, hoping he would be able to raise his nature core to the same level as his dark core, or at least just for a short while enough to make the breakthrough.

He of course knew very well how difficult the endeavor would be, but he didn't plan to give up without trying.

The warm, brilliant spirit energy flowed from the surrounding nature and entered his body as Emery employed the [Nature Grasp]. It made its way to his nature core, filling it and slowly building it up.

It was a quiet and exhilarating experience to use [Nature Grasp] on different planets, each one had a different feel, and having to experience them helped increase his understanding of the nature elements.

Emery knew he was on the right path. But at the same time, he also knew that just taking the nature energy of this planet would not be enough. What he needed was not a steady flow of spirit energy. He needed an explosion, a strong deluge of energy to match his dark core.

Emery finally opened his eyes. A look of struggle was seen briefly on his face, but quickly replaced by determination.

Taking a deep breath to solidify his decision, he opened his spatial space and took out a wooden box carved with intricate runes. He then carefully opened it and within was filled with the prized item for any acolyte, the [Spirit Foundation Pill].

With the one he had remaining from last year, the ten he received when he entered the privileged class, and the twenty five he got for being in the top 40, Emery bagged a total of thirty six of the precious pills in his hand.

Looking at the rows of pearly pill lying on top of red velvet, Emery decisively took one and brought it into his mouth. Immediately after, a wave of warm energy appeared in his body that would match his cold ones.

A few hours later, the effect was gone, and with it came a notification into his mind.

[Your spirit force has increased]

Seeing his decision was correct, Emery started consuming the [Spirit Foundation Pill] without minding how precious it was, as much as two and even three times a day to keep tab the cold energy that came from his dark core. Following it was naturally the series of notifications that stated his spirit force increased.

[Your spirit force has increased]

[Your spirit force has increased]

[Your spirit force has increased]

…

It took Emery a week and twenty [Spirit Foundation Pill] to finally reach the build-up force he needed to break through. Now that he had completed the requirement, the next thing Emery had to do was chant the technique, which he immediately did. The result he wanted finally arrived.

[You have successfully mastered Dao Divine Technique - stage 5]

It was a success.

The breakthrough was accompanied by the growth of the connecting channel between the two cores by five times, bringing the ratio from ten to one into two to one. 

As if the barrier that divided them vanished entirely, when this happened Emery could feel his nature core flowing together in harmony with his dark core.

[Your spirit force has increased exponentially]

[Emery Ambrose]

[Battle Power: 148]

[Spirit Force: 952]

In the span of a week, Emery managed to increase his spirit force by 42 points. This wasn't just a number or mere value, as Emery could clearly feel his spirit force was strengthened immensely. 

It was also at this time that Emery discovered he could actually improve the channel between his two cores to another level, if only he had stronger nature energy within. But for now, he was satisfied that the imbalance between his dark core and his nature core had been somewhat resolved.

Now the flow between the two cores had heightened to another level, Emery believed he could control the bloodthirsty urge that came with the activation of his transformation ability better. Of course, he would have to check it for himself, as there was only one way to find out.

[Fey Transformation]

Ooowwwoooooooo!!

In an instant, the spirit energy within Emery's body flowed throughout his blood and activated the bloodline ability. The transformation quickly brought apparent changes and empowered Emery tremendously.

His figure immediately disappeared from the rock he sat on and flickered through the dense shadow of trees. Emery rushed through the woods, searching for an outlet to unleash the seemingly unstoppable power coursing through his body.

It didn't take long for him to find himself a high-level beast. This time, it was a tiger-like creature curled up on the ground, seemingly resting. Its entire body was enveloped in blazing flames, which strangely did not ignite the surrounding greenery.

[Amber Cat]

[Magical beast - Level 95]

[Battle Power - 225]

Without further ado, Emery attacked the creature. Disturbed from its slumber, the creature stared intently at Emery, before pouncing on him. It was also at this moment Emery had a bad premonition.

His hasty search for an opponent made him a bit reckless, as it turned out that there was another high-level monster in the surrounding area. It appeared right behind Emery, its claws approaching close to his clearly exposed back.

Fortunately, Emery managed to dodge at the last second, before swiftly retreating a dozen meters away to look at the new opponent.

[Forest harpy]

[Legendary Beast - level 50]

[Battle power -210]

It was moving through the trees, camouflaging its presence so well that, if Emery didn't put most of his attention on it, he would easily lose track of the monster. 

Two high-level monsters, one lurked in the shadows looking for a chance to deal a critical hit, the other stared menacingly with its sharp fangs bared in his direction. In situations like this, the right move was to retreat, as the opponents were too risky to handle alone.

However, Emery could feel himself burning with power. Therefore he decided to stand his ground. After all, he needed a proper fight to propel his bloodline further.
