Chapter 1049: Expanding the Limit
Going over the various things Mystia showed him, as well as the words she said to him just now, the gears in the young man's mind began to turn as he summarized what he understood. "So, what you're saying is, Mystic Energy is reliant on my imagination for it to take form?"
"That's correct." Mystia nodded with a smile, glad that Valyr was able to understand the gist of her explanation. "As long as you can imagine it, then the Mystic Energy would be able to bring it to reality."
Hearing those words come out of Mystia's mouth once more, a slight frown began to creep up onto Valyr's face.
After all, if the power of Mystic Energy was dictated by one's imagination, then why was the plane containing its concept on the brink of destruction in the past?
Keeping this in mind, the young man decided to ask both Mystia and Marcus for more information, hoping that they would answer everything he asked them.Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com
"You mentioned just now that Mystic Energy manifests what I come up in my mind into reality," said the young man, his gaze focused on the woman before him. "Would it be possible for me to conjure a sword with the Mystic Energy, then?"
"You could." Mystia nodded in response. "However, it doesn't have any offensive properties whatsoever. It would only exhibit defensive properties when used."
At those words, Valyr slightly raised his eyebrows. "Would that only apply to swords? Or does it apply to other things?"
"For example, what if I were to imagine a giant claw out of Mystic Energy to strike down a lot of my foes at once?"
"It would only be able to defend you from attacks in return," said Mystia, finally showing Valyr a glimpse of how Mystic Energy truly worked. "Aside from that, the size of the claw you create is highly dependent on how much Mystic Energy you put into it."
"If that's the case, then that means your earlier claims were wrong," replied Valyr after gathering his thoughts, causing Mystia to look back at him with a slight frown in response.
Though, as the young man continued to explain his train of thought, the frown on Mystia's face gradually disappeared. "After all, how could you say that Mystic Energy would be able to bring whatever I imagine to reality if I can't even use it to create a weapon?"
"Well..." Responding to Valyr's words, Mystia went silent for a bit before letting out a sigh. "Once again, it has something to do with the nature of Mystic Energy itself."
Pondering over her words for a bit, Valyr eventually understood what she meant by that. "I see. Shadow Energy leans towards destruction..."
In less than an instant, the Mystic Energy in his surroundings took shape, slowly transforming into the image of the ideal shield Valyr had in his mind.
Feeling the shield appearing before him consume some of the Mystic Energy within his body, the young man soon had a smile on his face the moment he felt the shield before him become
truly tangible.
Ding!
Whilst willing the shield made out of Mystic Energy to revolve around his body, Valyr went ahead and opened up his notification screen in his mind, curious as to what the system wanted
to tell him.
[You have discovered the ideal method to manipulating Mystic Energy.]
[Due to this discovery, the skill 'Intermediate Mystic Energy Manipulation' has been replaced with 'Basic True Mystic Energy Manipulation'.]
'System, identify the new skill I just obtained.' With his eyes slightly widening from the information he just read, Valyr continued to interact with the system in his mind whilst slowly refining his control over the shield he conjured.
By the time he began to conjure a second shield in a bid to emulate what Mystia did earlier, Valyr focused most of his attention towards the description of the new skill he received, only to then furrow his brows as he noted a certain portion of the skill.
Returning his senses back to reality, the young man willed the two shields he conjured to the side before looking at Mystia. "Say, Mystia."
"Hmm?" Hearing her name be called, Mystia looked back at the young man before raising her eyebrow in curiosity.
"Have you ever purified your Mystic Energy before?" As these words left the young man's
mouth, Valyr felt a sense of excitement since it seemed like he found a way to expand the
limits of what his Mystic Energy was capable of.
Though, those thoughts came to a grinding halt when he noticed that the smile on Mystia's face had become crooked because of it.
