Chapter 1253 - Exploring The Bodies
For the next week, Sam just stayed in the cave as he practiced. He started expanding his limits on how he could manipulate and condense the energy into.
He practiced condensing the energy into smaller sizes, shapes and made the energy turn more chaotic and turbulent, sometimes smooth and mellow.
On the seventh day, he managed to condense the energy into the form of a cane that he could use to support himself and managed to walk for three minutes before it disappeared.
As for the energy balls, he could now control and throw the balls to a certain distance and make them explode at perfect timing.
The tree in front of the cave has long since disappeared and turned into smithereens. Along with that, the surrounding area was covered with holes.
He also managed to understand how to control the damage of the attack by manipulating the turbulence of the energy ball.
Apart from that, he also learned how to condense the energy to form shields, barriers, and even some short cold weapons that could be used for a few minutes.
Sam decided that it is time to leave the cave. But before he leaves, he decided to try a few things first. He closed his eyes and placed his right arm on the stump of the amputated right leg as he condensed the energy.
Slowly the energy started condensing into the shape of the leg and the shape is the exact mirror image of the left leg he still has.
He wanted to see if he could really do something like this, but the condensed energy almost exploded right there because of the momentary lapse of his control.
If something went wrong, he would have blasted himself into a thousand pieces and died a tragic death.
After a failed attempt, Sam then focused on another important thing. The dormant soul of Sivan.
This is one of the cards that he couldn't lose no matter what and luckily, Sivan is so cocky that he didn't even bother to use any other protection as Sam did with Ghost Chimera.
Ghost Chimera is one of the most disgusting things that are ever created, by nature or by man. They are vicious and their only goal is to make others be doomed as them. If by any chance Sivan became a bit reckless in dealing with the Ghost Chimera, he can kiss his soul goodbye.
Sam's dormant soul is a key to a lot of things.
As long as Sivan manages to assimilate that dormant soul, everything Sam built and obtained with all this effort, the beasts, the weapons, the creations, the dusk organization, everything would fall into Sivan's hands.
Apart from that, there are some dangerous ideas that were already formulated in Sam's head for a long time that he didn't want to use as they would bring destruction that could make every being in a planet succumb to him.
Sam and Sivan are the same kinds of people. They will look for any means they could use to achieve their goal, but after this rebirth, Sam has changed a bit and he placed a few lines that he would never cross, but that doesn't mean, he wouldn't get the ideas that are way beyond those lines.
They wouldn't even stop at mere thoughts, there are many things that Sam theoretically constructed in his imagination, all those plans and ideas, added with a bunch of talented artisans, formation masters, and inscription experts all of the different elemental usage, the world would see the shift of regime. Even though it is impossible to conquer every realm in these cosmos as they are too many to even reach much less conquer, Sivan and his organization would be able to conquer everything that has life within their area of influence in the cosmos.
Sam knew very well what those thoughts are capable of. The only things that are limiting him are the resources and the moral integrity.
Sivan is not that kind of guy. He doesn't have bottom lines, he wouldn't dare cross. He doesn't have the mindset of minding his own business. He is a born conqueror and he will live up to that potential if he had those ideas.
Sam doesn't want his creations to be the cause of this severe destruction, even if he couldn't save the whole world, he should at least be able to save the world he built by himself.
That is why he sent some of those plans that are more focused on defense than offense to Philip and sent him back to desolate.
In the worst-case scenario that Sivan managed to get his hands on any of Sam's plans, at least the dusk organization would be safe.
Sam's thoughts ran wild as he looked at Sivan's dormant soul.
He could try to destroy it, but then the body wouldn't accept his soul properly. He would be facing intense backlash and unless someone is training in possession, they wouldn't be able to keep themselves in this body.
Sam is obviously not trained in this area.
His own soul form sat in front of the dormant soul form which is also sitting in nothingness as it huddled into itself.
Sam used his mental energy to probe the dormant soul and was met with resistance, when he probed harder, it started fighting back. But he didn't care.
Sam slowly and gently wrestled with the dormant soul in the contest of mental energy and the mental energy is something he trained himself in.
But after some time he understood that the other party is the same.
Sivan was also trained in mental energy. After all, he has very few things to do, and his whole plan is based on the fact that his mental energy trumps everyone else's so there is no surprise there.
But Sam is sure that he would be able to win. He is confident in his skills in mental warfare and he is sure that he would succeed a lot sooner than Sivan ever could.
Once he obtains that Dormant soul, he would be able to get all the information he needs regarding Sivan, his clan, his strength, the details on his subordinates, the power structure of his organization, his rivals, enemies, friends, supporters, sex life.
Any memory that is related to Sivan would be his and Sam could prepare from then on and most of all, the one he is looking forward to is the cultivation technique of that guy.
Once he figures out that cultivation technique, Sam could try to keep up the cultivation so that when he gets back, he and Sivan would be on the same level and the ritual could be done once again.
After checking what this body and soul has to offer and familiarizing it, Sam changed the robes and started walking outside in the snow with the help of the crutches.
He didn't know which direction he should take as there are no signs of life forms or tracks left behind by anyone, so he just decided to walk straight until he sees something or someone.
He walked for three days and finally, he saw some tracks in the snow. There are a bunch of footprints and sled marks following them.
Someone is using some canine beasts to drag sleds here.
He changed his direction and started following the tracks.
Meanwhile, somewhere else.
Sivan is currently in the backyard of his residence. Butler Si is standing in front of him as he attacked.
The golden flames, silver lightning, water, poison, vines, earth elemental attacks. All kinds of elemental attacks are being used at a rapid rate.
Sivan is extremely excited.
All his life, he was bored as hell. He wanted to kill himself out of boredom more than anything.
He couldn't do anything with his ability, he couldn't fight, he couldn't create things, but Sam has a boon that is exactly opposite to his curse.
Sam's physique is perfect, he can use around ten elements.
This is the perfect body he dreamed of many times.
Butler Si, who suppressed his cultivation to the same level as Sivan, is having a hard time keeping up with Sivan's attacks and when the sparring end, Butler Si is left with a few superficial wounds but Sivan is exhausted. There is no energy left even though he is not injured.
His energy efficiency is really shit compared to Sam.
"Great job Young master. Apart from a bit of energy control, you did great in everything else. This body is indeed suitable for you."
Butler Si walked towards Sivan as he appreciated him, but all of a sudden, Sivan experienced a weird feeling. A combination of hunger thirst as he felt his nose twitching continuously.
He involuntarily turned to Butler Si and his vision is completely focused on the blood that is dripping from Butler Si's shoulder.
He ran forward as he tried to bite into the butler's body without any self-control.
Butler Si, who is of superior cultivation immediately stopped Sivan and looked at him in a puzzled expression which then turned into that of horror.
