Chapter 1280 Training
A few days passed at which time Ning finished reaching the Essence Manifestation realm in all of his cores but 2.
The Lightning and Sound cores made the most progress of all, and the other 4 only entered the Essence manifestation realm. As for the last 2, he never got to get to them.
Before he could begin doing anything for them, Emma sent him a message that she wanted to come back. Once she was out, he would have to do what he wanted some other time.
Emma looked around the room and quickly turned to her father. “How many days has it been?” she asked. “It’s only been a few minutes inside.”
“7 days,” Ning said. “It’s been an entire week.”
“Woah!” Emma couldn’t help but say. “Time really does move so fascinatingly fast outside. No wonder you spent months out here and only a few hours had passed inside.”
She excitedly looked around. “What time is it? Lory and Lyra must’ve missed me,” she said.
Ning didn’t know what time it was himself and had to ask the system. “It’s afternoon it seems,” he said. “You can go meet them.”
“Okay, I’ll go take them out on a walk too,” she said and was about to walk out when Ning caught her by her hand.
She paused and turned around. “What?” she asked.
“Your face,” Ning said. “Hide it.”
“Hmm?” Emma realized what was happening. She quickly put on a fake face that still looked like her real face but didn’t give off the feeling of divinity that came with her being the Will.
Even outside of Earth, people would still be reverent towards her and she didn’t want that.
“Is that fine?” she asked once her face was changed.
Ning nodded. “Come back here quickly though, I need to teach you how to make Essence items from your energy,” he said.
Emma smiled brightly when she heard that. “You can teach me about that?” she asked.
Ning nodded. “My System can help with that,” he said. “Now go, and let Umbra handle any trouble that might come along. You don’t have to dirty your hands for it.”
She smiled back. “I know.” And then she left.
It was a few hours before Emma was back. She walked into the room and was about to come further in when Ning stopped her.
“You’re dragging in mud,” he said.
“Huh?” she looked down. “Oh, sorry. It just started raining outside.” She moved her hand so that the layer of mud around her feet disappeared. Even the footsteps that she left on the wooden floor were cleared up.
She swirled her fingers once again and her clothes dried at once. Then she walked in and quickly sat in her bed, looking excitedly at her father.
“Teach me,” she said excitedly. “I’m ready.”
Ning smiled back. “It is simple really,” he said as he brought out a small orange item from his storage and tossed it to her.
Emma looked at the item in her hand curiously. It took a moment for her to realize what it was. “Is this a conduit?” she asked.
Ning nodded. “An Explosion conduit,” he said. “I got a few of them while you were away. Try and see if you can copy that without wasting away all of your energy.”
“Oh,” Emma said, somewhat dejected. “I thought you were going to teach me how to do it entirely.”
Ning shook his head. “I’m not like you,” he said. “I cannot make this. I cannot create Essence.”
“Oh, right,” Emma said.
“I do have tips though,” Ning said. “I told you my system was going to help you.”
He had asked the system many questions and now he was ready to give her the tips. “The first thing you need to do is understand the type of Energy you are dealing with,” he said.
“I have to understand Essence,” Emma said and nodded her head. She hadn’t done much, but she was ready for it.
“No, not Essence,” Ning said. “Well, yes Essence, but stop thinking of it like you are learning about Essence. Forget about Qi, and forget about mana.”
“For this, you cannot categorize them.”
Nova looked at him. “Why not?” she asked.
“Because Essence in this world, is not the same as Essence in some other world. Qi in this world would not be the same as Qi on Earth, same goes for Mana.”
“Every universe has its own set of rules on how the unique energy that seeps through the cracks interact, and this prevents you from using information from one universe to another.”
“There are similarities, yes, but the differences are there as well. It could be the different difficulties in breakthrough, the different methods of usage, the different method to acquire the energy, anything.”
“Anything could be different and for that very reason, you can treat each energy differently. So ignore all previous ideas about the types of energy you had and try to understand just this one.”
“Just the Essence of this Universe.”
Emma looked like she wanted to ask a question, but she didn’t. She looked down and started using her own Essence to see if she could use the conduit.
As she focused, Ning put up a barrier around the two of them so that they didn’t accidentally explode the entire building.
Once done, he looked at his daughter and smiled. He knew what she had wanted to ask. It was the same curiosity he had when the system had told him what to say.
Why did the same energy manifest differently in different universes? And yet the same in from different spots in one universe.
The answer apparently lay in the shape, size, and mass of the universe itself. The answer was so complex that Ning could barely understand what he was told.
However, at its core, the answer was that each universe was different, and as such each one had a different possibility of what came out of each unique energy.
Aside from a handful of unique energies, most other forms the invading pure energy took were unique across different universes as well.
That was something he was going to have to have his daughter understand soon.
