Chapter 549 Creating A New Technique
Chapter 549 Creating A New Technique
But my third technique was used to seal and bind any creature with my power, just like any system contract would do.
I depended on this energy to do it. Would it be possible to do the same? Use the same kind of energy to bind the same energy with? Damn! It didn’t make any sense at all!
Think… I kept telling myself this. I was lost in thoughts while looking at this energy. It gave me the impression of being a living monster.
But how would I bind it to me? Using its own energy against itself? Would that even work?
“I… Built the entire thing on the concept of words holding energy… But won’t that also mean I can change it to do other things? Like… Getting a connection stable and secure with this energy?”
I thought out loud while considering all my options here. Just thinking like that made me realise the third technique wasn’t just one limited for binding. It could be changed to form lots of other effects, endless possibilities.
Well… I had to test it out first before deciding anything. So, what should I focus on here?.
“First I shall focus on words to ease the connection between me and it… Like Channel, Meridian, Connection, and Bond…” I thought before thinking about words to make me feel secure.
I knew I had to compose thirteen words, and in the end I’d use my name to bind these together and form my final technique.
I kept thinking about words to make this connection pass in both directions. I felt like this energy had its own conscience, and it would be a waste to just force my will solely upon it.
I also needed to slowly integrate my energy with it, adding my own to this berserk and violent one to make it much gentler towards me.
Also I made sure to add a few securing words, like Safe and Ally. I also added a word, Slave, to make sure it wouldn’t get out of control at any moment, plus Obedience as well.
“It’s ready,” As I finished selecting the words I wanted, I started making this technique.
At first I controlled the two first techniques of mine together. Then I controlled one thick tentacle to write down these words using my blood.
When the merged technique was formed, I noticed the mass of dark blue energy getting berserk all of sudden. Its threads shone brighter, creating an easy to see bright blue lustre that illuminated the area here.
I knew it was responding to the call of my merged technique. After all I was using my blood as the medium, and this dark blue energy as the fuel to run this technique.
Each word written was surrounded with tentacles from the merged black sphere. The first word took thirteen, down to the last word that took only one.
Then the last word written was my name, and that didn’t absorb any tentacle. It just hovered in the middle of all the different sized spheres, acting as its centre.
And once the entire spheres coalesced together, they formed a new bigger ball that hovered in between me and that mass of dark energy.
“Now… What?!” I stood in my place, not knowing what else I should do. I looked at this final version of my technique and felt a little at loss.
The previous time I used it, the technique worked on its own to grab that damn monster to it. But this doesn’t happen now.
“Maybe… It’s waiting for me to take a move…” I thought this wasn’t a technique to bind and seal but to link and connect.
I looked up at my merged technique. Should I use these tentacles to do it?
If I did, then I’d end up gaining nothing. This energy would get connected and linked with my final merged technique, which was something that was already present.
So… I had to think about other solutions. There was another way to do it. I could use my own energy here, moving a thread from my secondary dantian and trying to link it to this ball.
If this worked, then I’d be linked to this energy all the time. Or would it be limited only when I used the third technique? I hoped this wouldn’t be the case.
Last time my technique ended up with a mark over my back. This time I hoped it would do the same, creating something that would last and be active all the time.
“Come forth!” I controlled my secondary dantian, moved the energy in it to form a thin thread and moved it towards the ball.
Last time I tried to do something like that, the black energy here devoured my threads, leaving no trace behind.
I hoped this time this new technique wouldn’t do this.
As the thread got closer, it started to twist in a weird way. At first I felt like there was some sort of resistance to it. But later on I felt it wasn’t just a resistance.
That ball was pushing my thread aside, not letting it get closer.
I was this close from giving up when I felt something different. This thread… It wasn’t pushed away, but towards a certain direction, towards me!
“Come!” What was there to be afraid of? This was my energy, and if that technique wanted it to come to me then let it be.
I didn’t push the thread again towards the ball, but around it to reach me. And just as I did that, I saw a change in that big black blue ball.
Two thick protrusions came from it, one towards me and the other towards the dark energy. It appeared first as if something inside that big ball was trying to break out.
Then it started to grow thinner and looked more like a thick pillar. Once the thread of my secondary dantian came to me, that pillar also arrived with it.
I looked at the two pointing at me and took a deep breath. It was clear what was going to happen, and I felt I had to prepare myself first for the deep pain I’d feel.
