“I am not sure. I don’t know how this door is a weapon, but I can only feel our genetic energy from the door. It is not present in that altar or the surroundings.”
“But, it’s strange that the concentration of mana in the surrounding is so high. As for the usages of the altar, I have no idea.” Julia answered.
Brian thought for a moment and said, “My control over the genetic energy is much lowered than yours, so I will believe you for this. And if this door truly is a weapon we have been looking for, I think this isn’t a weapon but a tool.”
“What do you mean?” James asked.
“Let’s see if my theory is correct or not.” Brian didn’t answer him but instead walked toward the altar. He touched the top of the altar, and suddenly, glowing blue runes appeared around the altar.
These blue runes startled everyone. Brian found that he could move the top of the altar.
“Everyone, get ready, alright?” Brian said as he slowly moved the top to the left. At this moment, they didn’t feel anything at all.
“Nothing is happening. Is something wrong with the altar?” Julia asked as she walked near the altar and touched it.
James felt a slight change. He was getting goosebumps all over his body. He slowly stepped out of the rune and felt an intense wave of mana clashing against his body.
Just a few seconds later, he felt like he was sweating tons. He didn’t understand what had happened, so he looked back.
Brian and others also saw his condition and decided to step outside.
Crash! Crash! Crash!
Suddenly, armor appeared on Julia’s body while Brian felt like his skin was melting. He quickly jumped inside the runes. On the other hand, Ely and James were feeling alright.
Although it was still hot for them, they could feel a large amount of mana around them.
“Wait, doesn’t this mean we can improve our rank here? The amount of mana is already ridiculous here.” Ely excitedly shouted.
James also nodded his head, but Brian had a different idea.
“No! Mana is just the byproduct of Zero-Point Energy. You can’t evolve using Mana. What you can do right now is improve the quality of your mana and make yourself physically stronger.”
“You can also try to comprehend Mana Domain here. I don’t think this is the place where you can rank up. Instead, it should be a training space. This could change the strength of earth drastically.” Brian said as he looked at the surroundings with awe.
He didn’t expect to find such a powerful tool. Even though it can’t help them defeat Dragon Lord, it can still make the earth stronger.
“Yep! Let’s start training. By the way, can you explain Mana Domain? How do I comprehend it?” James asked.
Brian shook his head and said, “I don’t think Mana Domain suits you. You should try to comprehend domains like Power Domain or Gravity Domain. These will definitely increase your strength.”
“As for how you can comprehend it. Domains are basically the extension of your abilities. Every race has a bloodline except humans. These bloodlines contain innate abilities inside them.”
“For example, Spirit Bloodline contains three innate abilities; Mana Manipulation, Mana Transformation, and Mana Domain. Those who basically start from the bottom can only access Mana Manipulation. Once you reach S-Rank, you can access Mana Transformation.”
“Now, they can’t transform their mana into a multitude of different energies. For example, they can even transform their mana into the space itself and control it.”
“Finally, when they reach Omega Rank, they can access Mana Domain. Of course, there is another way to comprehend the domain. It is much harder and needs someone to guide you.”
“For example, Blood Domain. Vampires have recorded how to achieve Blood Domain without reaching Omega Rank and have passed it down to generations.”
“Currently, I do know how to achieve Blood Domain and Mana Domain, and I can teach you, but your comprehension is very much necessary. Not only that, without these bloodlines, you can’t bring forward the power of these domains, especially you.”
“Your bloodline is different. Unlike others, you very much rely on your fists. You might not be able to use the mana domain effectively, but of course, I am not here to decide what you can do or not.”
“I will teach you the Mana Domain.”
Hearing his words, James hesitated a little. He basically got the idea about the domain. Domains are inherent but can also be learned with a proper guide.
Mana Domain can obviously make him stronger, but it wasn’t meant for him. Most of his attacks are simply smashing something. He was an angry rage monster when he used his bloodline.
But after a few minutes, he released a deep breath and said, “Teach me! I will do anything to increase my strength.”
“Alright!” Brian nodded his head and looked at Ely.
“What about you? Originally, I wanted to teach you, but I am not sure if you have already learned it or not.”
“I want to. I have only learned Blood Domain and Blood Abilities.” Ely nodded her head and immediately agreed.
After that, Brian taught them the basics of the Mana Domain.
Whenever this domain is used, they can improve the pureness of their mana by several folds. Spirits could purify their mana twenty to a hundred times.
As for others, they have a chance to purify their mana by five to ten percent, which is already impressive.
But to condense a mana domain, they must manipulate mana to a certain degree and then create a concentrated space where mana keeps getting purer each second.
Maintaining the domain would be hard unless you have properly grasped it. Mana Domain or rather any other domain was simply the formation of a concentrated space using a certain kind of energy.
For Dragons, they can use Dragon Force to condense Dragon Domain. But, every creature can form Mana Domain because they can use mana as the raw material.
For the entire day, Brian taught them how to use mana properly. He taught them the manipulation of mana and the transformation of mana. Everyone has good knowledge about these two things but they normally use it subconsciously.
But to use Domain, you need to be conscious of the manipulation and transformation of mana. Because they were in a strong mana space, they had quite a difficult time controlling mana.
But because of that, when they succeeded, they were able to move on to the next space. Creating the concentrated space with the mana. Infusing mana into this space allows them to condense their domain.
That’s why they have to be conscious of this. After all, they aren’t using their bloodlines to condense the domain. Both of them didn’t succeed on the third day and the fourth day.
Finally, Brian asked them to give up for now. It wasn’t easy to learn the domain. Even if they have managed to manipulate and transform mana, infusing it into the space to create their own domain is hard.
“Sigh! I tried to find my own domain but no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t find it. It seems like I can only focus on Mana Domain for now.” James heavily sighed as they were preparing to leave.
“Don’t worry, once you reach Omega Rank, you can easily achieve your own domain. For now, let’s leave this place. My GMD has been fully charged but I still need to enter Chaos Online to increase my strength.” Brian said.
“But daddy, can’t you enter Chaos Online here?” Julia asked.
“I can but I need to complete the tutorial before I can enter the first floor and until I finish the tutorial, I can’t leave the game. I want to meet your mothers and spend some time with everyone before entering the tutorial.” Brian answered with a smile.
He truly missed Charlotte and others. He even missed Lucy. He didn’t have feelings for her even though they have been together for a year now. Both of them weren’t trying to make any progress so their relationship has stuck for a while.
“By the way, how are we going to take this?” Ely asked.
“Maybe we can take the door. I mean we can use our blood to open it so it shouldn’t be hard for us.” Brian answered.
“I hope so. If we take it back to the earth, we can use it to help many people. We can grow our forces against the threats from outer space.” James spoke.
“That’s right. With few people, we won’t be able to keep the earth safe. But, once I finish the trial and earn enough points to awaken the human bloodline once, we will be able to get stronger without using New Gods.”
“By the way, don’t we grow stronger faster in New Gods than by real training?” James suddenly asked which made Brian pause.
It was true after all.
