Child of Destiny Chapter 1628 Finding the Way (Part 2)

...

"I see. So that is it," Shin mumbled to himself after exchanging more blows with Han.

During their exchanges, he realized what were the similarities and differences between the elental powers that he controlled and the ntal energy that the Three-Eyed Demon Crow was providing.

The ntal Energy of this ancient soul was pure energy released by the soul without any hint of mixture from any other source of powers while the Elental Powers that he controlled were energies that were ford after the combination of the elental mana in the atmosphere and the power of the soul.

As for the higher form of mana that he controlled such as the Eternal Fla, Natural Wood, Primordial Waters, Earthen tal, and tallic Earth, they were the purest and highest form of Elental Powers that were created after the natural elents perfectly rged with the power of the soul.

Such pure elental powers could only be found in Elental Beings, particularly those at the level of Spirit Kings, Supre Elentals, and Elental Monarchs.

On the other hand, the ntal Energy that the Three-Eyed Demon Crow was releasing was pure energy released by the soul itself. It did not have any mix of other sources of energy. It was just pure energy produced by the soul similar to what the ntal Energy a ntalist had in the real world.

On the other hand, the Elental Powers that Shin had were more of a Spiritual Force, which was the combination of ntal Energy and Innate Attributes that an individual had.

They followed the sa principle, but the difference was this ntal Energy being a little stronger and much purer than what a regular ntal Energy had.

In the anti, the other higher forms of mana such as the Powers of the Brilliant Sun and the Abyssal Moon were so energies that were refined to perfectly match an individual. They were more of the Internal Energy that the Martial Artists trained in the real world, which then transford into Natural Force.

Shin also realized the different advantages of these forms of mana, which followed different principles.

After exchanging a couple more blows against Han, Shin was finally able to pinpoint the exact differences between these energies.

Boom!

Separating from one another, Shin stared at Han and the apparition of the Three-Eyed Demon Crow behind the latter, observing the other party closely.

After seeing that Han was about to lose his mind completely, Shin sighed and said. "I guess this is as far as we can go."

Even if he did not get what he wanted to know, he at least had gotten quite a lot from this encounter with this genius from the Seven Seas Group.

He had gotten quite an idea of what these guys were planning and what their experints were ant for both inside the ga and the real world.

He had also benefited from his encounter with the Three-Eyed Demon Crow, particularly the completion of his five-elental breathing cycle and understanding of the energies within the ga.

There was also the hint that he had gotten about the bloodlines of the Transcendent Beings, which was similar to the clues that Arthur had gotten from that mysterious Sigurd Dragonborn of the Dragon Slayer Family – about how the Transcendent Beings would advance in the future.

Reorganizing his thoughts, Shin stared at Han, who was currently charging straight at him with bloodshot eyes.

He sighed before releasing the 'Judgent Form' of the sword on his left hand and turned it back to its original sheath form before putting the [Yamato] back into it.

He then took his signature sword-drawing stance as he changed his breathing according to the 'Solar Breathing Technique', making him breathe out hot steam from his mouth.

He watched Han reach his ideal range before suddenly disappearing from his current position and transforming into a blazing streak of light.

This technique was sothing had created after being enlightened during this battle. It was a technique that was ford with the combination of the 'Jade Kirin Scripture' and any of the five elental breathings in addition to the sword principles that he had learned from the real world, particularly about the concept of a swift and sharp sword.

Shing!

As Shin unsheathed the sword during his flight, a trail of gorgeous followed the path of his sword, which then turned into a huge image of a blazing bird that enveloped him.

Swoosh!

His figure then disappeared as if he rged with the blazing bird, which then devoured Han, who was being protected by the ancient soul projection of the Three-Eyed Demon Crow.

Shriek!

The two birds clashed against one another, producing a blinding light that illuminated the entire battle.

The clash between the pure ntal energy and the gorgeous flas created a storm of energy that even burned the plague filling the environnt.

This collision of powers then ford a blazing sphere, which expanded in every direction, further burning the environnt and sowhat purifying the land as well.

The trio of Exheart, Bryan, and HellBan even ran away from the explosion, defeating their respective opponents.

They then turned at the blazing storm after reaching a safe distance while suppressing the twitching of their face.

"Such power! So, this is a glimpse of his true powers?" mumbled Exheart as he stared intently at the blazing sphere made by the explosion.

Not long after, the figures of Shin and Han were revealed at the center of the receding storm with their backs facing one another.

They stayed still for a couple of monts before Shin straightened his back and sheathed his sword.

Click!

When the [Yamato] fully returned to its sheath, Han, who was standing in the distance, was suddenly set ablaze and turned into ashes.

In the end, Han had never found the opportunity to escape and was forced to fight until the end. He had used everything he had yet still lost miserably without Shin showcasing his full capabilities.

He then left a tattered beast skin, which seed to contain a map of an unknown place, after dying.

Shin slowly walked over picked up the beast's skin and checked what was drawn in it. He slightly frowned his brows when he saw the contents, particularly after realizing that it was so important map.

What confused him was he could not see much of the details of this thing even though he was using the True Sight ocular skill to identify it.

"What is this thing," he mumbled after failing to identify the item multiple tis. Aside from having a rough idea that it was a map for sothing special, he had no idea where exactly it was pointing.

He thought for a mont before putting it inside his inventory bag, saving it for later. Since it was guaranteed to drop, he was sure that it was sothing of utmost importance, especially after sensing an ancient feeling coming from the map.

After that, he raised his head and scanned the surroundings. He then raised his brows after seeing that the land, on which the final exchange occurred, had been 'purified' by the blazing storm.

The range was sowhat larger, which gave Shin a rough idea of how strong the final clash was. Even if it was not as huge as the strongest collisions from his previous huge battles, it was still large enough to be considered devastating.

After slightly nodding his head, he turned to the Exheart, Bryan, and HellBan, who were already clearing the battlefield and looting all the drops that the opposing group had left behind.

Those people were still elites and experts in the ga, especially as part of such a huge organization. This could only an that their equipnt shouldn't be that bad and worth a fortune, particularly the three peak Maverick Rankers they fought earlier.

After making sure that they did not miss anything, the trio walked toward Shin to discuss how they would divide the spoils of war.

Seeing them walk over, Shin understood what they wanted to discuss and said. "You can keep those things."

Even if those pieces of equipnt could cost a fortune, they were nothing in front of Shin, who could be considered one of the wealthiest individuals in the ga.

Forget about his city and dukedom, even the equipnt that he was wearing was more than enough the combined prices of these three had collected. This even excluded the special items in his possession such as the [Yamato], an inheritance weapon of the Nephilim Race; the [Death's Shadow], a cloak that transford into a sacred relic; and the [Proof of Eclipse], which was a dissonant wish.

There were also others, which were of equal value such as the fragnt of [Balmung], which a legendary sword, was also one of them.

In his eyes, the items and equipnt that the trio had collected were nothing but a bunch of junk.

He then turned toward the depths of the Plagued Lands before saying. "Let's continue. I feel like those people watching us will give us more surprises than this group."
