“I have no idea why it’s golden-brown, either!” Mo Fan scratched his head. Perhaps it was the blessing of the main protagonist. Even the Earth Element he had Awakened was special!

“Try casting a spell and see,” Guo Liyu advised him.

Mo Fan blurted out with wide eyes, “Mister, I have just Awakened the new Element. Wouldn’t I need some practice?”

“It’s obvious that you’re just a rookie. You have already reached the Super Level! Do you seriously think you will need a year and a half to learn how to control a few Stars of the Earth Element? Close your eyes and focus on connecting the Stars,” Guo Liyu chided him.

Mo Fan was a little doubtful, but he still closed his eyes and began to focus his Will on the golden-brown Stardust.

The golden-brown Stardust only occupied a tiny space; it was almost negligible compared to the other brilliant Star Galaxies and blazing Star Ocean, only emitting a faint glow in the corner.

The seven Stars were all golden-brown in color. As expected of the Earth Element, they were a lot stabler than the Stars of the Fire and Lightning Elements. They calmly obeyed Mo Fan’s Will when he started to connect them.

The first and second Stars were connected successfully. Mo Fan was able to use the powerful control of being Super Level to align the first two Stars along the Orbit without any practice.

However, the Star Orbit broke when he tried to connect the third Star, mainly because Mo Fan was still unfamiliar with the traits of the Earth Element.

“It didn’t work!” Mo Fan said after opening his eyes.

“Just try a few more times if it doesn’t work. You should control your bearing when you’re connecting the Stars. They are just a bunch of newborns in your Spiritual World, after all. You might be the ruler, but you should treat them gently, too. You must show them your authority without scaring them. If it’s the Earth Element, you should be gentler, calmer, and more patient. Don’t rush it, just make sure it doesn’t break,” Guo Liyu advised Mo Fan.

Mo Fan nodded. He followed Guo Liyu’s instructions and began controlling the Stars of the Earth Element once again.

Patient, calm, he must let the Stars know that he was in charge of the Spiritual World, yet he could not let them be afraid of him!

Mo Fan had always treated his Stars as little creatures of his Spiritual World. They had their own character and emotions, but many Mages forced the Stars to become their slaves, just so they could control their magic better.

It was unwise to treat your Stars cruelly. Furthermore, Stars of different Elements had different characters. Mo Fan altered the way he was treating the Stars of the Earth Element a little bit, and soon noticed they were a lot more obedient.

One... two... three... four... seven... all connected in a Star Orbit!

The Star Orbit of the Earth Element was quite simple. When the Stars were Aligned, a golden-brown line went through the Stars and turned into a bright glow at the final Star’s position.

The light continued to grow stronger as Mo Fan’s eyes sprang open. His eyes suddenly turned golden-brown, too!

“Rock Fangs!” Mo Fan blurted out words that suddenly crossed his mind.

Mo Fan locked his gaze onto the stands displaying the Awakening Stones. He swung his hand up with great force!

A golden-brown light flickered close to Mo Fan’s palm. A strange movement began to appear close to the stands. A moment later, rocks like the huge fangs of a wild beast sprang up and went through the stand!

The Rock Fang almost reached the ceiling, which was more than five meters tall. Guo Liyu jumped into the air upon seeing it. He had an urge to choke Mo Fan to death! “My stands!” he yelled.

Mo Fan saw the Rock Fang reaching up still, but decided to put a stop to it considering he was about to break the ceiling of the biggest Magic Association in the country!

“You asked me to test it!” Mo Fan exclaimed, displaying no guilt.

“Is there something wrong with you? Most people only cast an Earth Wave as the Basic Spell! Can’t you just stand still and cast a few Earth Waves while moving back and forth? Why did you Summon that thing!? Are you purposely destroying my furniture!?” Guo Liyu said angrily.

“I don’t like the usual way people use the Earth Element. I noticed the Stars were coordinating with me when I tried to alter its form, so I decided to turn it into an offensive spell. I didn’t expect it to work on the first attempt! Look at my Rock Fang! Isn’t it impressive? I bet it can kill a Servant-class creature instantly if they don’t dodge it in time!” Mo Fan said proudly, ignoring Guo Liyu’s protests.

Earth Wave?

Mo Fan felt the usual Earth Wave was not very useful to him. Since his control over the Earth Element was so much stronger than a low-level Mage, he could alter the form of the spells by mastering certain tricks behind them!

It was impossible for a low-level Mage to do that, mainly because their control over their magic was not strong enough, and they were still unfamiliar with the traits of their Elements. It was already impressive for a low-level Mage to cast a normal Earth Wave perfectly. There was no way a low-level Mage could cast the Basic Spell on their second attempt after Awakening a new Element, let alone alter the form of their spells!

“Something isn’t right! My stands are built with Iron Brass Wood. Even if you’ve modified the spell, your Rock Fang should be the one breaking into pieces, since you’ve just Awakened the Earth Element. Your golden-brown rock is pretty tough!” Guo Liyu quickly went closer to the pieces of his display stand after a sudden thought crossed his mind.

Mo Fan shared the same doubts. His golden-brown rock was like a steel drill compared to the spells of other Basic and Intermediate Earth Mages. It had destroyed the display stand, which was as sturdy as metal, with ease!

“Could it be an Innate Soul Seed? No, no, you already have an Innate Talent...” Guo Liyu fell into deeper thought.

Innate Soul Seeds were a very impressive Innate Talent; Mu Ningxue was a perfect example. With the right practice, they would be much stronger than Mages with the same Element of the same level!

Normally, if the new Element Awakened did not have its usual color, it was most likely a sign that the person had an Innate Soul Seed. But Mo Fan already had an Innate Talent, so that was no longer a possibility.

“I feel like it’s more of an additional effect,” Mo Fan spoke up.

“Additional effect? You mean like the additional effects some high-level Soul-grade Seeds have?” Guo Liyu asked sharply.

Mo Fan nodded.

It was not a Soul-grade Earth Seed, Mo Fan was confident of that. It felt more like the special ability, the Lightning Tyrant Scars, that the Soul Seed Lightning Tyrant had granted him!
