Chapter 305 The Immortal Path

Just a quick note, so basically in the last chapter Daedalus was revealed to have regressed to that of a fifteen year old. This is the effect of his bloodline in a more mana rich environment, I had forgotten to update his appearance recently so I just wanted to take advantage of the chance. sorry for wasting your time. Please enjoy the chapter!!!

A week had past since 'The Incident', Artair was still in critical condition but with his immortal energy he was recovering at a phenomenal rate. Daedalus had in the meantime begun work on learning to absorb immortal energy.

Luckily for him the forest that the elven empire occupied was lush because of a place called 'The Hot Springs'. This location happened to be within the palace and the water within the hot spring was actually liquid immortal energy.

On any other occasion it would be impossibly dangerous, unless you had already started your path to immortality. So for the past week Daedalus had been sitting on a rock just above the water's surface trying to absorb the energy.

The reason he wasn't in the water itself was because Ceridwen said "You have to sit on that rock until you learn to absorb the energy, until then you can't get in the water."

Daedalus initially had though 'Oh this is no big deal.' and sat on the rock confidently. It was only an hour later he realised how wrong he was, the water was constantly tempting him to jump in. Through this Daedalus gained an incentive to push him to try harder, and it worked.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Daedalus had managed to absorb a little bit of immortal energy within the first two days and since then, no matter what, he had not left the hot springs. Though he wasn't just relaxing, he was also absorbing as much immortal energy he could handle, and that was a lot.

After Daedalus learned to absorb the immortal energy Ceridwen had come down and told him what the next few steps in cultivation where. The first was Immortal Tether, basically he had to cleanse his mortal tethers with immortal energy which would basically have the tethers go from automatically absorbing mortal energy to immortal energy.

The next stages where basically the same as the mortal stages except he was purifying his auras rather than forming them. Other than this information Ceridwen had also told him to practise his ability to control the immortal energy, and research his opponents of the other races as well as his allies from the elven race.

So that is exactly what he did, first Daedalus found a good spot in the hot springs where everything but his head was under water. Then he began to absorb the immortal energy towards only one of the mortal tethers. As doing this required a certain amount of control this allowed him to practise controlling the immortal energy.

It was on the fifth day that Daedalus had managed to purify two of his tethers and he decided to let them automatically gather immortal energy while he did his research. With an hour of him asking for books or information on the several topics Daedalus could be seen laying on a floating device with a book in his hands as well as a few pieces of paper with reports on the biggest competitors beside him.

And by the end of the seventh day Daedalus had managed to gather most of the information he needed for the tournament.
