"If you wanna take revenge on bad people then you have to be strong enough, with pathetic strength like yours, you would not be able to even kill an ant." The old lady moved back.
Lucie nodded at her words, she needed strength to reach her goals.
"Come with me, I will make you strong." The old lady said again.
Lucie stood up and looked at her in the eyes.
"Can you heal him?"
The old lady listened to her question and clicked her tongue.
"No, I can't, his life force has already been exhausted very thin, I think you should leave him and let him die in peace."
Lucie gritted her teeth and her moist eyes glanced over at Gavin. She turned silent, not knowing what she should do.
The old lady moved her hand and the wind suddenly surrounded Gavin, burying him in the hole.
Lucie's eyes widened seeing Gavin getting buried alive. However, she didn't resist the old lady, as this was all they can do, giving him a proper burial.
After placing a tomb with Electro written on it, Lucie stood up and nodded at the old lady, the lady also smiled at her.
"You are making the right decision." She said and then with a wave of her hand, both of them disappeared from the place.
....
After about an hour, at the place where Gavin's body was buried, a bang happened, and all the soil blasted away in the air.
Electricity buzzed around the area and a giant stepped out of the hole.
"Where the hell am I?" Gavin looked at his surroundings and only after a moment he realized that he was beside the rock where Lucie was.
Moving out he stepped on the rock. One could see that there were no signs of his life force getting drained away from his body, instead, he was standing there invigorated.
"Where did she go?" Gavin looked around, however, he couldn't see her anywhere. "Did she leave me alone?"
Gavin knew that Lucie was not very strong, so even if she left him there, she will be in danger in this wilderness after all there lived many fierce beasts in this place.
His eyes then landed on the hole he was buried in. "This hole, she couldn't have dug it herself."
Landing down again, Gavin saw the hole in the ground, he then looked at the sky and the surrounding area, and he could tell that not much time has passed since he has turned unconscious.
Looks like only a few hours have passed since I saw that blue snake, how could she have dug such a hole in a short time?
Gavin knew that Lucie was a mortal, just a few hours ago. And even if she has awakened a spirit, she shouldn't be able to dig this much.
"That Snake Spirit looked dangerous though. She might have broken a few levels just like my hammer." Gavin thought.
"But why did she bury me? Was I completely dead and got resurrected again with the help of the hammer?" Gavin was confused, however, he didn't pursue his questions for longer as he knew that the only way he can get his answers was, if he were to see Lucie again.
"I was gonna help her get to her town safely, now she might have enough strength to get there alone."
From the pit, Gavin could tell that either Lucie got strengthened due to her spirit or either she got help from someone, in both the cases she shouldn't need his help anymore.
Gavin was not worried that she might have been kidnapped again because if that was the case, then the kidnapper would not have gone as far as to bury him, they would have simply left his body to rot on the stone.
"Let's leave this place." Gavin thought and was about to fly away, however, suddenly a pang of pain ran through his body.
"This!"
He looked in his spirit see and saw something that made him shake.
"Another hammer?!"
In his Dantian he could see another hammer floating there silently, it was different from his lighting hammer.
Blue in color with snake scales coiled around it.
"Where does this other hammer come from?"
Gavin remembered that his spiritual see only contained one hammer before and that was his Lightning Hammer named 'Pantaron.'
However, somehow he can now sense another hammer in his spiritual see.
"Where did this new hammer come from?"
He furrowed his brows.
"Does it form from Lucie's spirit?" He concluded pretty fast.
As Lucie's spirit was a blue snake and now he has a hammer after helping her awaken with blue snake scales on it.
"Can I summon it?"
Gavin focused on the Blue Hammer in his dantian to summon it.
*Whoosh*
Soon enough the blue hammer appeared in his hand with ethereal blue smoke surrounding it.
The hammer looked godly and silent.
Gavin could sense no weight coming from it, and the moment he grabbed the handle, he felt a cold running through his body.
His thoughts turned silent and he felt strange peace surrounding him.
Everything looked silent like silence covered the whole area.
It wasn't the true silence as Gavin could still hear the fluttering of trees and grass. However, the feeling he got was like he has somehow disconnected from the voices.
He felt at peace, noise couldn't affect his peace at all.
"Should I move my Qi inside the Hammer?"
Gavin thought and moved his Qi inside the blue hammer.
"Boom"
Suddenly blue smoke erupted from the hammer covering Gavin's body.
"I Shadowfury accept you, wielder of Panthoran as my Lord."
A heavy voice rang in Gavin's brain as his bulky body started to shrink.
His muscular stature changed, his hair turned blue, and even his eyes were sky color.
When the blue smoke subsided, the body of a handsome man Revealed itself.
His hair was blue, and his body was lithe, he looked handsome.
Gavin looked at his hands and then at his slim waist.
"I changed my appearance again."
He couldn't see his face now, but if he did then he would be shocked at his beauty.
He then looked at his Dantian, where Panthoran was resting. And instead, he now has a hammer named Shadowfury.
"Can I not use both of them at the same time?" He wondered.
Then he tried to summon Panthoran while still keeping Shadowfury in his hand.
*Boom*
Lightning covered his body, and he turned into his hulking form again.
Shadowfury moved to his Dantian.
"So I can't use both of the hammers at the same time."
Gavin was a bit disappointed.
He then summoned Shadowfury, turning into a blue-haired guy again.
"Let's see what kind of power this hammer holds."
Gavin wanted to test his new hammer.
Jumping he tried to fly, however, he landed on his ass just as he jumped.
"Ahh..."
A grunt left his mouth, as he felt the strong impact on his back.
"I can't fly with this hammer!"
Gavin stood up while dusting dirt away from his back.
He then moved more of his Qi inside Shadowfury.
"Show me what you can do."
"Bang! Bang!"
Suddenly two loud blasts happened in his Dantian, which made his eyes almost pop out in shock.
"What the hell!"
His cultivation suddenly jumped up.
"Grade 7!"
.
.
.
"Grade 8!"
He suddenly jumped from Grade six to Grade Eight directly.
Previously when he activated Panthoran, his cultivation moved from Grade 1 to Grade 6.
And now as he activated Shadowfury his cultivation moved from Grade 6 to Grade 8.
Excitement flashed in his eyes.
One has to remember that to break through cultivation realms so fast, one needs the help of some heavenly treasures and now he has moved up just from his spirit.
A smile formed on his face.
He than pushed more of his Qi inside the hammer.
"Swoosh."
The hammer few out of hand and floated in front of him.
Gavin felt a strange connection with Shadowfury, like he can control it.
"This! Looks like I can control this hammer mid flight."
He focused his attention on a tree nearby.
"Go Shadowfury." He called out.
"Whoosh."
The hammer moved with high speed and landed on the giant tree, however it didn't stop their, it moved forward with full force breaking the tree trunk in half.
Gavin laughed at his new strength.
However his happiness soon turned into shock, when he saw the tree turning black.
Soon enough the whole tree crumbled into dust.
"What?!"
Gavin moved towards the place where the tree was just standing and saw that even it's roots turned to dust.
"This is too lethal!"
He looked at the blue hammer floating in front of him and gulped his saliva.
Manipulating the hammer in his hand again he placed it in his Dantian and expected his body to return to normal.
However unlike Panthoran, his appearance did not change and he still felt a connection with hammer.
