Chapter 417 - Big Risk For Great Reward Part 2
Chapter 417 - Big Risk For Great Reward Part 2
Adam knew he had placed a lot of pressure on Elizabeth to make a decision, but she was a leader and needed to be ready to make such choices on the spot.
"If you fail you will become a passive leader that will lead the faction, but won't be able to fight, which is a possibility. There is a 50% chance that this fails and that is with my help, but if you pull it off, the benefits are clear"
"With your right side wielding poison energy, you could wield a bow to strike and poison your enemies, while you could also use blunt arrows from your left side to heal your allies from a distance. There are also needles and throwing knives that can be embedded with the same characteristics and it opens up many doors"
"If you pull it off, it isn't all benefits. You will require double the focus and concentration and will also need to cultivate your poison side from the beginning. Along with that, it will require a lot of resources and research as this is the first time that I have seen this done before"
The choice with the greatest reward was clear, but was the risk worth it and could she pull it off.
"Self-doubt is the biggest enemy for a cultivator. If one doesn't have the ambition, drive and self-belief, then surpassing their limits and becoming a powerful being will be impossible"
"Whatever choice you make, just be happy and content and seek other ways to improve for yourself and the faction"
Adam didn't want her to feel obligated to use the method as it was called forbidden for a reason.
The risk was too large and only with his help would the risk be 50%, but without him, the likelihood of her succeeding would be less than 10%.
It wasn't because she was weak or incapable, but merely because the forbidden method was very difficult to pull off and it was only her constitution that made it so that she could even think about using such a method.
Splitting one's cultivation and forming two separate energy cycles within the body would allow one to use two different forms of energy, but one needed to have an affinity and the capability to cultivate two different types of energy, which was rare.
The higher one's cultivation was when they attempted to use the method, also increased the risk and Adam was planning to handle the suppression of the energy for her while she focused on following the instruction of the manual.
That was the most he could do for her and ultimately the ball was in her court.
"Everything you said just merely made me more excited to use this method. Forbidden or not, as long as I can increase my power and capabilities without harming others, I am willing to take it" she stated.
There was no fear or doubt in her eyes after hearing and resonating with everything that Adam had said, while Adam was pleased and glad that she was willing to take the risk.
Using a rune that linked to the communication runes all around the secret base, Adam gave a message to all the other leaders that were spread all around the base.
"Elizabeth will be going through a harsh training transformation and she is not to be disturbed. I will be overseeing it and do not enter or disrupt us as it could be fatal. In the meantime, continue your training and the next person I will see after Elizabeth is Wayde" announced Adam.
The order he had come up with wasn't random and he had already planned and calculated what he wanted to do with each of them.
He left Chase and Cole until last as they required the least guidance and also needed time to recover, while he called those that required the most work and assistance first.
The first session with him would be the most important and the one's after that would merely allow him to oversee their progress, give them advice and help them in any way that they need.
He had also added the communication runes around the secret base recently so that he could use them as speakers to give announcements to all of them at once, rather than needing to look for each of them individually.
All the leaders were curious as to what sot of harsh training transformation she was going through and what they could expect from her after she completed it, but it made them even more excited and eager to be taught by Adam.
Adam had put a lot of thought into teaching them all and what they needed to improve on and had confirmed all his ideas and plans after observing and sparring against each of them.
"Let us begin. Open the method book, then place your blood on the front, and it will become imprinted in your mind. It is a consumable book, so once it is used once, it cannot be used again and it was left behind by my master" stated Adam.
"Are you sure you would like to use such an important and valuable method on me, especially since it was left behind by your master?" she asked.
"Who else am I going to use it on? You are the most suitable for it and there is no point storing it without reason. All I hope is that you try your best to succeed and always work towards improving yourself and the faction"
Elizabeth, who had gone against Adam and needed to prove herself and work the hardest to be valued and appreciated by Adam, was touched by his care and by him being willing to give her such a thing without thinking about it twice.
She did as he instructed and a series of instructions and chants appeared within her mind.
All the information that she would need to pull off the splitting of her cultivation into two sides appeared within her mind and she was ready to begin, not hesitating or doubting herself in the slightest.
