[You were too lazy.] said Yami while jumping down the slide. He continues to dive down the endless slope for what seems to be a couple hours. It was actually 10 minutes. At this point, Yami was making drawings in the air with his finger. When it got hot, he cooled his body down by circulating his Hamon, using his ice to cool down his body and his fire resistance to get rid of some of the heat. When he just entered the outer core, it was like he entered a sauna that had a normal temperature. Finally, after a minute, he sees a light at the end of the tunnel. When he arrives, he finds himself in a foggy place with lakes every now and then. To top it off, all kinds of rare and legendary herbs were growing here.
Because no one was using the dragon vein for millions of years, the energy has become so dense that it has become fog. With that, it allows creation of rare herbs, unlike before where herbs from the surface were found in the dragon vein.
'Now that I am here, I remember a few words back when I was a baby. I could make a connection with this place. Yet I don't have my powers until I'm 20. Mo Fan enters university when he is 19, so I should be full forgotten stage by then. Anyways, I don't need my powers to form a link with this place. The cosmos element is mis-interpreted. The true nature of this element is to form contracts and deals with anything. By initiating a contract and being accepted, you would first get all powers belonging to that thing, and you would become a friend of sorts. Obviously, there is a domination route. And I don't have time to act nice and friendly, so since I am at the forbidden stage, I should be able to do it.' said Yami while activating his cosmos energy. After a while, a voice shakes through the dragon vein.
[Human. What brings an old cultivator to this emperor? Do you wish to make a contract?] questioned the voice.
[Ok, let me correct a few things. First, I'm not Human. I'm an immortal vampire. Second, I'm not an old cultivator. I was just taught by one. Third, I'm not trying to make a contract, I'm forcing you to make a contract.] said Yami while activating his killing intent. With the amount of times he has killed, he has insane killing intent. It doesn't even need to be human life. The Ikari god test? He killed those shadow like monsters. Those count. The clones he used to test moves? Those count. The amount of killing intent he pressed upon at the dragon vein at full throttle could rival someone who has killed 1,000,000 Earths that has a population of 100 billion. Meaning, he has the killing intent of 100 quadrillion. The dragon vein could do nothing but get pressured.
[H-human, if you think this emperor will submit to you and let you use me as you please, then you can forget about having me live.] said the dragon vein. The next action surprised the dragon vein as all the pressure it just had disappeared.
[Ok then, lets talk like normal men. Guess my plan of domination is over. Plan B. Ill set up conditions that you cant deny and you would profit from. Let's start with my origins. I'm a child of a forbidden mage of the new magic system. Not too sure about the father. I was abandoned at an early stage of my life, living in the orphanage. There, I slowly collected the coins that people had dropped and forgotten, and soon, I had amassed a great amount of money. 3 months before I awakened my elements at the awakening stone, I awakened 3 elements. The soul, Demon and Summon. At the awakening stone, I awakened the Chaos, Lightning and space. So, I cultivated them. I became bored, so I asked my school for a leave for half a year.
There, I settled at star-forest as my base and landed in a cave. As I was scouting, I found a wall that was actually an illusion. There, I met John, an ancient cultivator of the peak forgotten realm. There, he taught me all there is to the Old magic system, and by the time the 6 months passed, I became a forbidden tier mage in both the old and new magic system. I awakened all possible elements, besides man-made, and cultivated them to forbidden. If I get the Yin-Yang Harmony fruit along with the spiritual pool, I will advance to the forgotten stage in all my elements in about 6 months, and without the Yin-Yang Harmony fruit, I can advance in 11 months. I came here to make a contract and get energy from you.
But you see, I'm a bit special. You might be thinking something along the lines of "WOW, what a liar. There's no way coincidences like that could happen!", but that's where you are wrong. I have memories of my previous life as a peak-forbidden stage mage. With that knowledge, I slowly cultivated and now here I am, an 18 year old boy as a peak-forbidden stage. With the backstory finished with, these are the conditions.
My gains include : I get your energy whenever I need and resources whenever I need and if I was in any danger, you are to sacrifice energy to protect me.
Your gains include : Foreign energy to strengthen your own energy, ascend to God-hood, and becoming the energy bank of the God of everything. Sounds good?] explained Yami
[You could of have skipped the backstory, but yes. But I dont under stand the gains I get. Foreign energy? I have every energy to exist. Ascend to god-hood? I am a god. And lastly, become the energy bank of the god of everything? What kind of sick joke is that?] questioned the dragon vein in disdain.
[Sorry, but you are missing one detail. When did I ever say that I was a mage of this world? Yes, I was a mage from another world. If we were to compare my power, I would be the forbidden stage, but I was only above average. The true geniuses have long since passed the god-like stage. I have some of the energy from that world. When I form the contract, I can give you this energy so you can cultivate it. As for ascending to God-hood, Ive done it once. I ascended to God-hood and became one of the strongest. You see, right now, there are 3 major realms.
The mortal realm, the God's realm and the Origin realm. We are in the mortal realm. By going passed the god-like stage, you ascend to the Gods realm. By reaching the peak of the God's realm, you ascend to Origin realm. I have the perfect plan for myself to get to the strongest position of the Origin realm, so I will have ascended to God-hood, and since you are my energy bank, you would get some of that energy and you yourself will ascend to God-hood. At least true god hood that you are unaware of.
Lastly, I said before I was going to be the strongest. Even now, if I got my powers back, I can probably beat the strongest person in the God's realm with ease. Ill get it back when I turn 20. If I can cultivate-cultivate instead of magic-cultivation, I will rise to the top. If you so refuse, Ill destroy you and go to another reality and find another dragon vein. Once I find it, I shall ascend to God hood and then Origin hood. What do you say?] explained Yami
[... How can I believe your words?] questioned the dragon vein.
[Fine then, ill introduce a new kind of energy that you have never seen. In my right hand is called Hamon. By breathing in a certain way, you can control your energy and bring forth incredible enhancements to the body. The sun radiates the same energy, but much more powerful. In my left hand is the energy I call Yoru. It has the same principals as Hamon, except with Moon light. By extensive training, I can now generate Hamon and Yoru from my heart beat alone and I have successfully fused them into what I call Ei energy.
Pretty basic. Yin + Yang and you get Ying and then translate that into Japanese. This energy can be used for enhancement, powerful blasts and the creation of items. Ill give you these 3 energies the moment you make a contract with me. When I turn 20, ill have regained my power and I will send all other kinds of energies. Of course, not the moment I turn 20, but when I come and visit so you can be prepared. Let me repeat myself. What do you say?] said Yami while making the energies disappear.
[...Fine. I agree to your terms.] said the voice, and a certain feeling arises from within Yami. 2 feelings, that is. The first is like a strong rope being pulled at each end, making it stable enough to not fall, but to not rip from the pressure. The second feeling was the feeling of awakening a new element.
[Let me explain before you freak out. I have existed since the beginning of time, at least for this realm. I hadn't the ability to think, but I still have the memories. In all of history, there has not been 2 magic systems, but 3. The first to ever exist, ill call the Ancient magic system since it was never called anything. This magic system holds a total of 1,879 elements, but the thing about this magic is that it is really crude.
They proclaimed that they gained new elements every time they merged with an elemental spirit, but in fact, they only had 30 elements like the Old magic system. They simply had a.. crude way of using it. If we were to compare the rankings of these magics, I would rate it like so.
Old magic first, new magic second and ancient magic third. Though it sucks compared to the other two, it still has its knacks. People who practise this magic system somehow had the abilities of taking in multiple elemental spirits of the same element, so, they found out how to merge them. Then came the old magic system which completely forgot about the mergence and just declared that you could only absorb one before having to get rid of it and absorbing another one. In fact, this ability still remains to some people nowadays, but no one ever tries.
You have every element, so ill give you the best elemental spirits of ever element and then the next best and so on until they have merged into the 'Genesis Spirit'. A genesis spirit is the spirit that stands above all other elemental spirits. You could say it is the strongest spirit. Every genesis spirit is special though. It's not the level they are at, but it is colour. Some of them is a pink-red ish colour, some are completely white. Some are brown, doesnt matter. Usually, it is decided by the colour of the soul. But, the colour doesn't decide if the person is bad or not. I once encountered a black soul that was a saint. So, do not discriminate.
As for the colour of your soul, it is a neon-dark blue kind of colour. I would say it is a very nice colour. Especially for your flames. Anyways, what you will scream out will be 'Genesis Intense fist : Yada Yada'. Just put genesis at the front. That covers about what you need to know. Ah! Also, the cultivation realms are all the same with only the new magic system not knowing the forgotten and god-like. But the Old and Ancient do. Now, any questions?] questioned the voice
[Yeah, can you also get me 1 Yin Lotus fruit and about a dozen Yin-Yang harmony fruits? If I can get those, I should be able to get to the forgotten peak stage in like 6 months since I also need to merge with elemental spirits. Otherwise, I think it would of have been a single month.] said Yami. Instantly in front of him, 13 herbs lay flat. 1 with a blue colour with 12 a mix of blue and yellow. Yami stores them in his storage ring and after that, over 100 spirits appear, all of them being one of the non-dimensional elemental spirits.
[As promised, here is the energy of the 3 energies.] said Yami while transferring the energy to the dragon vein. All the changes bring is a double strengthen in Yin and Yang attributes, and a triple strengthen in Fire and ice elements because of Hamon and Yoru.
[Anyways, do you have about 100 kilo's of magic mithril?] questioned Yami shamelessly
[100 kilo's? You can ask for a billion kilo's and I wouldn't of have depleted half of the deposits of magic mithril!] said the voice in a mocking voice as 100 kilo's of magic mithril appears before Yami.
[Okay, Okay. Ill give his to John and come back down here. Wait for me for about 10 minutes. Now, teleportation!] screamed out Yami. He teleports to a part of the slide, and then another part, and another until he reaches the top.
[Oh, hey Yami. How did it go?] questioned John
[It went fine. I was able to get into a contract with the dragon vein. Now I can get any ore or herb I want whenever I want. Plus he also gave me a few hundred elemental spirits. Anyways, here. You can have these. 100 kilo's of magic mithril and 1 Yin-lotus fruit. Now, see ya!] said Yami while cannon balling into the slide again. 10 minutes later and he appears back
[Man, that's really inefficient. Oh yeah, there was that kind of magic. A teleportation circle. Ill set one up here and on the top of my right arm so I can teleport anytime to this place.] said Yami while ingraving a set of strange ruin's on the floor with the earth element. Using the space element, Yami puts gravity on the top of his right hand in a specific way that when the process is done, his forearm is left bleeding with a scar of a magic circle that looks really similar to the magic circle on the ground. The blood heals and what is left is the magic circle scar.
[Done. I should of have thought of this a long time ago.] said Yami while walking around in the fog. He finds a big lake and dives in it. The spirits come out as Yami closes his eyes and starts to meditate while absorbing the spirits. The 12 Yin-Yang harmony fruits on the water, floating in the air around Yami.
[Now, let me start absorbing these spirits!]
