Chapter 497: Sparks And Fireflies

[Even those prodigies with absurdly great talent would find it difficult to become a Light Lord using the mainstream training method. After all, the only reason why the Light Spirit managed to reach Half-Step Everlasting Light rank was due to it being the spirit of light itself.]

[A human attempting that would face much greater difficulties. Additionally, even among other light spirits, the founder of the mainstream training method was a once-in-an-era genius.]

[From that perspective, you also couldn’t help but speculate if the Light Spirit Founder, Luminox, had planned to let another light spirit attain the Everlasting Light Supremacy to resurrect itself in a light spirit’s body.]

[Discovering something from using your hint prompt, you pondered. ’From the looks of it, the Light Spirit Luminox had given a different training method to those light spirits.’]

[’In other words, Luminox might have wanted to resurrect in another light spirit’s body, but decided to also include the other races as a second option. However, those light spirits are more foolish, since they didn’t even notice that their training method has been tampered with.’]

[’They trusted Luminox too much, since he’s the reason why the light spirit clan had even reached a high status in this world. But for other races, they didn’t have that tinted filter and could guess that Luminox’s intentions weren’t pure.’]

[After you had used Hint Prompt, you discovered that the collectively owned Universal Law of Everlasting Light fragments were at 67.523%.]

[In other words, more than 30% of the law fragments were unowned, allowing you to comprehend the Everlasting Light Principle without having to kill any Light Bearers.]

[Without having to hunt those Light Bearers, you could still reach Light Sage rank by purely comprehending the Universal Law of Everlasting Light.]

[But if you wanted to comprehend the Everlasting Light Sovereignty and become a Light Sovereign, it would be inevitable for you to eliminate and extract the owned law fragments of those Light Bearers who hadn’t modified their training methods.]

[Intriguingly, there were no Light Sages who had comprehended the Everlasting Light Principle. They all had comprehended only the Everlasting Light Authority, so you’d have to hunt at least more than ten thousand of them.]

[’It will be quite annoying to find all of those Everlasting Light Authority Holders. From what I’ve discovered through the Human Record, the area of this universe is greater than the train survival universe.’]

[’Finding those more than ten thousand Light Emperor rank Light Bearers will be like finding a needle in a haystack, due to there being countless worlds and galaxies.’]

[’Fortunately, I can just create ten thousand multiplication avatars and let them use the Absolute Compass and Hint Prompt to track down those Light Emperors possessing the Everlasting Light Authority.’]

[Thinking of this, you were no longer worried about hunting them later. In fact, even if they were to die before you could find them, it was still a good outcome, since you wouldn’t have to take less effort in hunting them.]

[Unlike in the Second Doomsday Life Simulation, your current simulation talents now allow you to easily comprehend Authorities and Principles.]

[You wouldn’t have to specifically hunt those authority holders and principle holders just to increase your law fragment ownership.]

[Due to this, extracting those Authorities wouldn’t do you much. Hunting those Light Emperors was merely to release the ownership they took on the Universal Law of Everlasting Light fragments.]

[Unless it was a Principle Holder, only then would it be worth it for you to hunt them specifically for the purpose of extracting their law fragment ownership.]

[Having already known the important things about the Light Bearer Path and the Perpetual Darkness World, you started formulating your own training method for the Light Bearer Path.]

[’Starting from the first rank of the Light Bearer Path, the Spark rank is quite straightforward. But since I plan to reach the extreme of each rank, I’ll also have to modify it as it concerns the foundation laid for my Light Bearer power.’]

[’In this regard, I merely have to increase the limit for the brightness of the inner light at each rank. The lower ranks are quite straightforward and are more biased towards illuminating the Perpetual Darkness, with not much means for combat.’]

[’It’s only at the Flash rank that Light Bearers have a reliable means to attack Dark Monsters by projecting their inner light into a flash-like attack against their target.’]

[If each rank were simplified, then Spark rank, as the first stage, was merely about creating light. Only when a person has found their light and established the inner light within their soul would they be able to create light, thereby becoming a Spark rank Light Bearer.]

[As the second rank, Firefly rank is about taking it a step further, allowing the Light Bearer to carry the light. The inner light at this rank is no longer that unstable, just a bit dim.]

[But like fireflies, the light created by a Firefly rank Light Bearer can revolve around the Light Bearer, no longer limited to just being manifested at one’s fingertip.]

[’If I want to reach the extreme of both these ranks, then I have to improve what they specialized in while removing the weakness.’]

[’The issue with the spark created at Spark rank is that the light is very unstable and there’d be intervals of it going on and off. Moreover, almost all Light Bearers could only create one spark at a time.’]

[’It’s only at Firefly rank that they’d be able to create more sparks and even let it revolve around their bodies. So, to take it further, not only must the brightness and intensity be improved, but I also must be able to create more than one spark at a time.’]

[’To deal with the weakness of the instability of the spark and the fact that there’d be intervals where the spark has disappeared, an Extreme Spark rank Light Bearer must be able to have at least one spark present at every moment.’]

[Thinking of this, you decided to start implementing it!]
