It's been weeks since the duel, and Syura has now went on his way, the last duel can't be said to be an exciting thing for him, but he can say it to be a good experience...
Like knowing his own mana pool...
That time, even though the golden barrier (Aegis) could protect him from Ais ultimate skill, but his own mana pool are just not enough! Making it got penetrated in the last second!
And mana pool is different than Qi in his 'new world' because Qi circulate from his dantian to all meridians in his body, strengthening his physics in the process, but his Qi is basically useless here, because of a seal that placed on him.
As for mana pool, it only located in one place, similar to dantian, but the way it works only just flowing to a certain part of his body and swish! It went to the air and bang! Shooting arrows and stuff from it!
And Qi works like a fuel to any vehicle! Going to places (engine) and made it even faster by circulating it more!
If we were to imagine it, mana pool works like a gallon of water, and the spell that you use is how much you fill your glass from it, the bigger it is, the longer it takes to prepare! And the quicker it is to get emptied!
As for Syura, the way he cast it could only be said to be insane! His output is just uncontrollable, it could even said to be not cost-effective!
Because, he fill his glass straight from the source! Making it spilled all over the place!
Although his mana pool are just formed after he got the Magi book, but his foundation is still not good enough! Even with his immortal vitality, it could only prevent his mana-pool to not explode from over-use! But the bigger it is, the harder it is to maintain!
Because the growth rate of his mana-pool is just too insane!
Although Syura already knew of this, but this thing could only be said to be a superficial problem!
The bigger one is: What would happen when his seal got lifted! Either his mana-pool dissapeared or got swallowed by his Qi!
Either way, its not a good thing for him! Because all his skill now came from the Magi book!
Even the "Shadow Clone" that he got from the system cannot be used! As it's source of power are not Qi or chakra! Because the two of them had a similar way of utilizing it! And mana-pool now could only be said to be a different cultivation system in entirety!
Strangely, he could use his "Red Eyes disease" (Sharingan)... Even though it uses Chakra as a source of power! Maybe it became an innate power for him... Maybe Syura will knew it later.
------
Syura has now came to the 23rd floor. up ahead in the distance, he saw a shimmering light, his head grew heavy and his sight grew dim he had to stop for a night...
"Fak! What a disgusting smell!" Syura who was about to rest in a cave suddenly sniff a foul smell from within. His eyes grew wide in shock, a pool of blood can be seen with naked eyes within the cave.
In it were monster skulls, chopped off limbs, and ruby like crystals! All drowned in blood!
Syura then come closer and cast his skill:
"String: Pull!"
Immediately, strings made of energy came out from a magic circle behind him, each cling to the monster crystal within the cave.
"Fortunately, there's such a skill in that Magi book! Else, this monster crystal would go to waste! "
The crystals were now suspended in the air in front of Syura, blood, splattered down from it. Making it a horrifying sight to behold.
If anybody were here, they would have thought that it was a flying monster crystal, because the energy string is as thin as a strand of hair!
And with a flick of his finger, Syura cast another skill:
"Pocket Dimension!"
A space-gap opened beside him, and the crystal immidiately went in and the gap closed.
Sweat could be seen on his face, and his breathing became rough.
"Didn't think that skill to be that harsh on mana! Wait... Doesn't that mean, to take things from within need at least the same amount of mana? Fak! Space magic is really harsh towards its user! If only my System could immediately finishes its upgrade, haah..." Syura sighed fornlornly.
• upgrade: 80%
Looking at the percentage of the upgrade...Syura just felt its better to not thought too much about this kind of system
Syura then look under him in depression.
Immediately, he noticed a faint of strange power flunctuation.
'This dark malicious energy...' Syura thought to himself while feeling the surrounding air.
Even though it's such a long time since the last time he met, or even fight, but this aura is so unique in this world that Syura didn't even need to guess who the owner was.
"Shiro!"
Looking back at the horrible sight in the cave, a realization struck his head.
'Wait for me you guys!'
