Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 70 A Way To Break The Array

?He knew if he left such a thing untouched or dealt with, then when trying to merge the three elements together, something bad would happen.

"Dealing with the darkness element in my spirit is totally different than dealing with the same element in the world around…" he knew the latter would be quite challenging and different than the former.

He had a chance to pull this through if he limited the merge with the elements of his spirit than with the world. But if he left the darkness element from the world to interfere, then this entire technique wouldn't get done properly.

As he thought about all these in his mind, he started to execute his move again. This time he paid close attention towards the darkness outside, feeling how his body got triggered and blended with it without his control.

And he just used two slashes this time.

Unlike what he was worried about, the darkness in his body got stirred up from the first slash he did. At the same time, the moment the darkness element inside got activated, he felt like some sort of a seal got removed.

It was like a fish returning to a pond of water, his body perfectly blended with darkness around without the need for him to do anything.

It was a move that looked quite natural, like he already belonged to that darkness. He felt like the darkness in the entire world was welcoming him as a son returning from a long trip abroad.

*Boom!*

The fierceness of this strike was much weaker than the first one. But he also ended up creating a deep hole that he couldn't tell how deep it was. And also, his spirit power got depleted by almost fifty percent.

"I got my spirit power expenditure rate lowered… But that blend with the darkness thing is quite annoying… Tsk!"

It wasn't just a worry about how the world's darkness would affect the other two elements, it also had a great limitation for this technique.

If he couldn't deal with that darkness blending move, then no matter how he tried, he wouldn't be able to execute such a technique except at night or in dark places.

"Not to mention if my enemies realised this flaw, they might use some flaring items like the candles to weaken the darkness around, ending up with me failing to execute the technique or bring the full power of it…"

There were lots of limitations if he couldn't solve this problem. As he sat and recovered his strength back, he kept thinking about what he should do.

No matter how he tried next, it proved futile to stop such a merge. He managed to lower his spirit power consumption to reach only twenty percent while using a single slash only.

Even when a single slash was used, the attack was quite domineering. Yet he couldn't do anything about merging with darkness around.

This move came in a very natural way. If he didn't find a way to stop the darkness around from touching his body, then he'd end up merging with the darkness no matter what!

"If so… I can wait until the morning to test this out… Or…" he didn't want to wait all these hours without trying.

So, he took out many candles of light, scattered them around and lit them up. The dancing green flames danced and pushed away darkness around a circular zone they surrounded.

He stood in the centre, took a deep breath, and started to activate his move again.

*Fwoosh!*

Like a dam broke down, releasing the entrapped huge amount of water behind, the moment he used his move, the darkness around swirled and pressured the light of candles.

One by one, the blazing green flames got extinguished one after another, as if wind erupted out of nowhere.

William was keenly observing his surroundings, and he never felt any wind coming. "Quite a fierce element indeed! Even against its nemesis, the darkness pushed itself inside and killed the flames…"

He felt what happened crystal clear and didn't miss anything. The flames died down as if they met something they couldn't fight against.

It was a small fight, one which ended up quite fast by the prevailing darkness. The moment many flames died down, darkness surrounded his body, curdling around him and taking him into its embrace.

"Tsk! I can't handle this in the night then…" reaching such a point, he knew it was pointless to keep trying this move in the night. He already executed the move and reached a stage where his spirit power could handle.

As using the candles failed, he had nothing else to do but to try doing this in the morning. He knew it'd be quite hard to execute darkness based techniques during daylight, but he had no other choice but to do so.

"I'll try out the combined version of the last night technique then…" as more than half of the night passed without reaching a conclusive result, he decided to not waste his time in rest and try out the other technique he came up with last night.

He still couldn't handle the fierce spirit consumption rate of that technique, nor did he manage to control the entire technique properly yet.

And during his stay in the array, testing out his darkness element based move, the two formidable spirit masters were trying their best to break up his array.

"We did it! Hahahaha! We finally did it!" Just minutes before William decided to try out his combined technique, the headmaster screamed in triumph when he managed to find a reliable way to break the array.

"That little bastard… It took us two nights to break it!" Kong wasn't just happy about it, but also feeling quite vengeful.

The theory behind breaking this array was simple. They accidentally discovered that the array covered the area above the ground, not underneath it.

During their many failed attempts, Kong lost his composure and delivered a strong fist towards the ground, creating a small hole there.

The headmaster went crazy when he spotted that hole, but Kong didn't apologise. He didn't even move an inch from his place, standing motionless there as he examined that hole in shock and delight.
