David's mind reeled. Together with the mental arts within the storage rings and the one in his memory, he now had two high-grade earth mental art skills, two mid-grade ones and five low-grade metal arts.
This is already an impressive lot and was enough to open a new sect elsewhere without having to worry about having the aid of massive amounts of earth realm experts willing to become an elder of the sect just for the chance to practice an earth grade mental art skills.
With a low grade earth mental skills, experts of the same realm would instantly be defeated in single move but the downside is that, one might spend one's entire lifespan trying to learn the earth grade skills which was why although earth grade skills were alluring, not everyone would fight for the opportunity to possess them, only the talented ones will.
Before coming to this continent, he and the other students had been assigned missions and one of the mission was to bring back as much mental art techniques as they possibly can.
Although that had been part of an exchange arrangement, both the academy and the institute had their own scheme and agendas in mind.
Submitting just one earth grade mental art skill to the institute was enough to garner enough contribution points for one to live the rest of his life in luxury.
Out of the earth realm mental skills, he took one of the high grade earth rank mineral art skills out. The one he had witnessed lady Chyou used. David couldn't peel his eyes off if it and ever since he witnessed the astonishing power, he had been hooked by it in an instant.
With his palm was a thin book twice the size of an ordinary book. There was only a hundred pages there, but the drawings if the flaming serpents in there was extremely life-like as thought it was about to jump out of the book to reality.
The name of the technique was Twin Flaming Serpent. At the beginning stages, one could form two flaming serpents that was five meters long and use it to attack the opponent, in the middle stages, one could form two flame serpents that was thirty meters high and use it to kill one's opponent, while at the highest state, the Ultimum state, the size of the flaming serpent would be in control of the user.
One could compress the size of the flame serpents and make it as small as a meter or increase the size to be as large as a hundred meter radius, instantly reducing the opponent to ash with its high temperature!
David could not help but gulp down on his own spit. If he could learn this technique and possibly even combine it with phantom blade, the strength would drastically increase and his opponent would never know what hit them.
David was excited, but he calmed him self down by using his breathing technique. When he was finally calm, he placed the book containing the Twin Flaming serpent back into his storage ring.
He knew his priority at the moment and was well aware that he needed to increase his mental energy by breaking through to the earth realm. The energy and power within his gene had been suppressed in here and even his strength and speed had also been suppressed. If it weren't for the fact that his body structure had completely changed and was already one with his hybrid form, he might not have been able to phase into his any of his forms.
Seeing a peak earth ranked expert here has left him so what worried. Although he had taken care of her, the fact was that he had caught her unawares. While she might be unable to injure him, not to mention kill him, if she had been very careful, he wouldn't have able to touch her in the slightest if she had kept her distance.
Which meant that if he met other peak earth expert here and he or she turns out to be very carful, the situation would be problematic. David knew he can't rely on his raw strength to kill his opponent anymore, the only thing left was his metal energy.
If he could advance to the earth realm and practice his a few high and mid grade earth ranked mental art technique to the highest level, he should be able to threaten kill mid-earth realm experts and possibly threaten Peak-earth realm experts.
Combining it with his genetic abilities, killing or possibly heavily injuring a peak-earth realm expert should be a problem.
After contemplating so deeply, David immediately got to work. He wasn't at the stage where he could advance immediately since he had just advanced to the peak-mortal realm. If he wanted to advance again, It would be quite problematic for him to advance so sudden as his foundation would become shaky and his mental energy wouldn't be so pure and thick.
Therefore, David chose to remain at the peak-mortal realm until his mind and body merge, completely getting used to his strength and ready for another advancement.
David took back the Twin Flaming Serpent manual and proceeded to read through it. As time passes, he was getting more and more amazed at the ingenuity of the creator of this technique, the technique is very powerful.
In the process of making the flaming serpents, the two blades are repeatedly struck against each other, making the creating cast amounts of sparks in the air and then, a mental energy acts as a fuel to increase the temperature and the destructiveness of the blades, with the the massive brainwaves forming a phenomenon that it wasn't just two blades attacking but it was actually two living serpents made entirely of flames.
Times passes by rapidly within the sacred domain. Slaughters were a very common occurance within the domain while plunder was second nature to the strong against the weak. Several weak students gathered together to form groups to search for treasures while the shared it amongst each other.
There were also cases of teammates backstabbing each other at the final moment, and leading to conflicts and eventually leading to the group disbanding.
It had been several hours David had come out of his seclusion. While it was hard for others to quickly practice earth grade techniques in a short period of time, it was exceptionally very easy for David.
Within the span of one month, he had reached the highest level of three mid earth ranked mental art techniques, the ultimum state.
The first one was the Floating Wind technique, which was a technique that allows the user to glide through the air as though one was floating on the air. It was a technique basically made for flying through the air using just mental energy.
The second technique was the Dark Sky mental art skill. At the beginning stages, one could reap an experts life in dark night and the opponent wouldn't even see it coming. It was completely invisible during the night but absolutely useless during the day. It was even stated that a peak earth realm expert had once used it to kill an heaven realm expert.
Comprehending this technique to the highest state would create a dark veil that would blanket the sky of a kilometer radius, depending on one's mental energy capacity, making the user to be able to utilise this skill even during the day.
The third skill was the Crimson Petal technique. It was an absolutely sinister technique that creates an illusion of a petal in mid-air. Once it strikes the opponent, no matter how light the injury might be, blood will gush out diem that direction like a geyser and they will bleed to death in just thirty seconds if the injury wasn't attended to in time.
David was very satisfied with these techniques, but he hadn't only used his time to practice the mid-grade earth ranked techniques, he had also practiced the high-tier earth grade techniques to but he only managed to practice them to the mid state.
They took too much of his time and if he decided to reach the Ultimum state in both the Flaming serpent technique, and the Blinking Sword technique, he would need at least a month to two months to reach that level.
David sighed as he thought, using sword kinesis to tear apart the grasses in his way. The technique he was most excited to use was the blinking sword art. It was exactly as its name implied.
Immediately the sword technique was executed, the air would rippled with a silent bang and the flying blade wound immediately disappear into thin air. The next time the blade would appear, it wound appear right in the body of the target. Silent and deadly, almost as though it was teleporting.
As David was deep in thought, his expression changed slightly and he immediately raised his head to look upwards. Far off in the skies, a bright light penetrated the clouds, forming sown sort of piller in the air, distorting the clouds with its power.
