Chapter 287: Refining
It was time to see if his hypothesis about the Seed of Life was true or not. Sages soul moved towards the Heavenly Materials. Inside the Green Core, the Tree of Life looked like a very young sapling, having only three leaves upon it. On the other hand it was quite large, and Sages soul, as well as the five Heavenly Materials, were dwelling peacefully in its shade. Sage moved towards the nearest of the Heavenly Materials, Stormbreath, and held out his hand. Stormbreath flew over to his soul and when they touched, Sage felt the energy of the Inner World fluctuate. Then he felt his soul ripple.
Thump.
He lost consciousness for a moment, but afterwards everything had returned to normal. More amazingly, he felt a deep connection to Stormbreath, just like the one he had with Blue Icesilver.
Was that it? That was way too easy!
Sage pulled his perception back out of the Inner World and back to reality. He formed a hand into a fist and called upon Stormbreath. He opened his hand and a typhoon level wind blasted out from between his fingers, causing a terrible ruckus in the cave den where he was meditating.
Hah! It really worked. Divine Breath is going to be terrifying now.
Ever since hed been reborn and practiced Life Nebula from the beginning, hed felt his innate Wood Qi had changed. His Qi felt more like the energy of the Heavens and Earth, encompassing all the elements, no longer skewed to one in specific. While he no longer gained any benefits from practicing a matching element, he could now practice any element without any penalties. This universal natured Qi was hardly uncommon, but it was actually seen as a detriment. A person only had limited time and energy. Studying a single element or type of technique would inevitably give better insights to using other similar techniques. Being limited to a single element wasnt a big problem, but having the increased affinity and control over that element was a huge bonus. So, those with universal natured Qi would give up on the elements and focus on other avenues of training. Why play with fire if others would always be ahead of you?
Sage was also limited in his time and energy, so he couldnt just take up every element to start practicing. On the other hand, he had five Heavenly Materials, so if he could adapt techniques to make use of them, he would definitely have a massive advantage over others! After getting a basic grasp on his abilities, it was moving time. Everyone in Tiankong Palace was packed up and ready to go. The place was too large for him to move it in one go, so hed have to break it up into pieces, move it to the Inner World, and then they could rebuild it there.
King had led some of his wives, and Ruanfu, to a nearby town to purchase supplies. They bought building materials, tools, food, instructional manuals, and most importantly many many wild beasts. The manuals were related to basic crafts and professions. They couldnt be going to the outside world to buy all of their supplies, eventually some of them would have to learn how to make clothing, pottery, silverware, cosmetics, accessories, and all the other pleasantries involved in their lives. Only a few of them showed interest right now, but King kept boasting about planning on so many droves of children that at least a few would take up each job eventually.
Ruanfu heard a few songs about exploring and conquering unknown territories, so she got it into her head that was going to be her new goal. She was going to map the whole of Sages Inner World and name all the landmarks before anyone else could. Sage didnt want to ruin her dream by reminding her how easy he could see everything in the world, so he only smiled and nodded at her aspirations.
The Inner World had multiple continents, so Sage chose to move Tiankong Palace to one of them. They also took along an equal number of Hoplites to act as their labor force and militia in the future. They brought along the plants and animals they purchased to create their own rudimentary ecosystem. Sage chose one of the other continents and released many of his insects there. He also chose basic vegetation that those insects preferred to eat. In both places, he was quite eager to see what sorts of changes they might undergo over time. Would the creatures get stronger, weaker, or drastically different? He also chose to plant the Stonesap Tree Seed hed purchased at the auction. He put a group of Hoplites in charge of growing it, and made sure King knew about it. He only had the one seed, and in the past he wanted to maximize his chances so he didnt plant it until it could have his full attention.
Now though, the Inner World was remarkably fertile, and with its accelerated rate of time, he wanted to grow a Stonesap Tree as quickly as possible to hopefully get even more seeds in the future. He even spent a few days using his Wood techniques to ensure it sprouted and had a healthy start.
