Chapter 125 Mana Pressure Point 3



As I had done while increasing my aura rank, a person can increase their own rank by training.

In the case of Aura, since the aura is generated by one's own body, a person would need to train their body to increase their rank.

However, this is not completely the same for mana.

Because mana has a different way of use, it is related to the core of the person and the purity that is generated inside the core.

That was why my core was sealed for such a long time.

Because if I wanted to use Aether as my base energy instead of mana inside my core, then I would need a very strong core that would be able to withstand the aftereffects.

It should also never break down while I was increasing my mage rank, which was another type of problem.

Now,  since I am in the Dynamic Mana Pressure Point, I have a lot of environmental mana to experiment with.

How do I increase my rank?

Is it the same as any other mage, or do I need to do something different since I am not using mana but Aether?

Now I will get answers to those questions.

With that thought, I get to work.

First, bringing out the materials that I have prepared beforehand.

'Eight elemental magic stones, each having a different type of mana. Now, I should set them around me.'

Just like that, I set the materials in the same formation I had used while I was trying to awaken my aura, but this time there were no gravity stones.

'I will use them to supply my magic if I needed.'

The reason for that was pretty simple. 

Since I won't only try to increase my page rank, but I will also try to get used to this feeling of using mana again.

'The magic I used was a lot sloppier than my lightning magic. I still couldn't get used to my core enough to use that in combat. I need to fix this.'

'And, lastly, I will set up a monster repellent. I don't want to deal with monsters here.'

Just like that, I took out the monster repellant I had bought from the market before and set the device up.

'All Seeing Eye.'

Confirming it was working as it should with my [All Seeing Eye], I left the device as it was and took my position in the middle of the place.

"Now, it is just focusing on."

Mumbling like that, I closed my eyes and started focusing on my core, and started the technique.

Mana breathing.

"Hisss…."

With all my mind focused on my core, I first started absorbing the mana around until I filled my core.

Be it fire mana, wind mana, earth mana, plant type mana, or any other type…. 

Without discrimination, I absorbed everything. 

This was one of the things that Aether Core allowed me to do.

Using and absorbing every type of mana in the environment.

And then started turning the mana. I had absorbed the pure mana form, Aether.

However, this process was absolutely the hardest one I had done because that required a lot of focus.

But, without losing the focus I had, I kept repeating, forming the pure mana until my core was filled to the brim.

'Now, it is time for the fun part.'

Although the time it took for me to fill my core to the brim with Aether was a lot longer than I expected, I wasn't even discouraged a bit.

'If it was that easy, then everyone would be strong and genius at magic.'

With that thought, I started turning the Aether in my core to the raw mana in order to generate a strong force field that would make me able to lift things without me touching them.

"My will be done; let things happen as I command."

While chanting the tier-one telekinesis magic I learned from the book.

/SWOOSH/

And the first thing I did was to make my Nihil fly in the air. Since my target of magic was Nihil itself.

/SWOOSH/ /THUD/

However, soon after I raised her, I lost control of it, stabbing it to the ground close by.

'I guess I still need some training to use my magic proficiently, huh? Let's grind then.'

Just like that, I started focusing on Nihil again while chanting my Telekinesis magic.

"My will be-"

Raising the Nihil….

******

While Callius started the process of filling his core with the concentrated mana around and emptying it with his magic, there were a lot of changes that were happening around him.

The same vortex that appeared while he was in the enlightenment state at the beginning appeared again.

However, this time there was one major difference.

It was that Callius was simply breathing mana in and out.

The appearance of that vortex was not related to the Enlightenment at this time. It was related to the Mana Pressure Point.

Although Callius hadn't talked about that, the most important aspect of having a dense mana around the environment is related to the mage's fast thinking and strong control over the mana around.

Because even if you have infinite materials under your hand if you don't know how to use it, you will never be able to make a good result from it.

That was basically why there was a vortex.

Inside his mind, Callius was unknowingly comparing the aura to his mana and using the techniques he used while moving his aura around his body.

Although it was a fairly different concept, the fact that he was able to learn using aura with such precision in such a close time interval was proof that he was talented at controlling the energy types.

And such innate talent would also apply his control over his mana as well.

/SWOOSH/ /SWOOSH/

This could be seen from the different materials that were floating around him.

/SWOOSH/ /SWOOSH/ /SWOOSH/ /SWOOSH/ /SWOOSH/

Five separated tree branches were flying around, each having its own cut marks around themselves.

Although the time he trained for had already passed the mark of 7 hours, his progress was still one of the fastest.

To be able to almost perfect his control over the First-rank Psionic Magic, Telekinesis was something even the high-rank Psionic-attributed mages would have a hard time doing.

And just like that, the training process went on.
