Sam’s silver figure started absorbing the liquid energy from the cylinder forcefully.
The energy output that is distributing the purified energy to the child cylinders was all being sucked towards Sam and the clear dark indigo energy is clearly visible in that silver body of his.
Sam felt an excruciating pain in his body as if all his organs are being crushed, but he gritted his teeth and sucked the energy faster and then channeled that energy into the large heap of the spirit stone powder.
Now that his level has beco higher, he can channel lightning energy and balance it within the normal spirit stone powder. If it was done even when he was in Astral Plane Initiation that might not have been possible.
But now it is possible. Whether it was a coincidence or it is really manipulated by soone, he ca to this place at a perfect ti.
Sam closed his eyes as he focused with full concentration which divided into two tasks. The first one is obviously forcing the liquid energy out of the cylinder.
Even though it sounds contradictory, he should be delicate and forceful at the sa ti. The second thing is the construction of the large energy cell by channeling the energy he forcefully pulled out. Both of these tasks are difficult and delicate, to begin with, even when they were done separately. But now he has to do both of them at the sa ti.
The amount of stress he has to take both physically and ntally is sothing he never endured before. This is the greatest form of torture for him by far.
As the process went on and one-fourth of the cylinder was empty, there was a rumbling sound all over the mountain.
Vidyut and rest of the Sam’s team, who are in the mountain mansion, can feel it.
Vidyut in particular had a numb and slightly painful sensation around the thing in his chest. They all ran out of the mansion and saw that the lightning curtain at the edge of the mountain path dimd a bit. The curtain which looked like a waterfall has its flow reduced and it beca slightly less dense.
They ran back in to take a look at the rest of the path through the screens and it could be seen that the lightning density all over the path has reduced by a bit.
Vidyut was extrely excited.
Sam didn’t know what is happening. In fact, he didn’t even notice the rumbling sound and the faint vibrations that are causing it. He was completely imrsed in the process.
But after the Initial small portion was reduced, the rest of the energy beca difficult to be dragged out. The farther away it is from the top component which distributes the energy from the parent cylinder, the difficult it is to drag it out.
Now he has to make the liquid energy delicately move to the top and let it out and try to grab it towards him instantly before it moves to different child cylinders.
And as it is new for Sam, he failed a few tis and the energy went to the child cylinders which sent the formation back to normal and Vidyut beca anxious.
But Sam didn’t feel that anxiety and tried his best to increase his control. After a bunch of failed attempts, he managed to absorb most of the energy and only letting a small portion escape to the child cylinders.
Now that there is no constant supply to the child cylinders and the formation is still slightly working, the liquid energy stored in the child cylinders is being consud. Even though a small portion is being supplied, as long as the supply didn’t exceed or match the consumption rate of the cylinder, it is going to be Sam’s win in this situation, and the formation is bound to stop working.
The process went on for the whole day and night. Sam didn’t get a wink of rest and he just kept on sucking the energy and channeled it into the large heap of spirit stone powder and by the dawn the next day, half of the powder already turned into a large spirit stone and the rest is on its way.
The process continued and by the dusk next day, Sam finally finished the process and the whole city witnessed as the lightning path that was revered and feared by many slowly dimd down and disappeared.
Sam finally had the chance, he imdiately stood up and spoke through the communication token he already wore.
"Vidyut, get ready to take that thing off your chest. We need to do it at the sa ti. On the count of three.
One. Two. Three."
As soon as Sam finished the count both of them pulled their objects at the sa ti.
The whole mountain started shaking. As the parent cylinder was thrown into the divine dinsion and the core placed in Vidyut’s chest was also removed, the rest of the nodes doesn’t have any other source to get the energy and the formation stopped.
Sam turned around to take a look at the large energy cell he created in the process.
This energy cell is the largest one he made. Even the large rocket is smaller than this.
He couldn’t help but smirk at the thought of the victim who would be getting treated with this energy cell. He threw that in divine dinsion and took out the Heavenly wine to recover.
He needs to collect the rest of the cylinders. There is no way, he would be leaving a single thing out of this formation.
This is the first ti, he beca this greedy in a while.
He didn’t even go and see Vidyut and just started digging around to collect the cylinders.
He took a whole day to do that and by that ti, the family heads and other important people already made a visit to Vidyut.
They were all shocked that the mountain path returned to normal and the disappearance of the lightning made them have a bad feeling.
When they ca, Vidyut wore a smile and said.
"I have to go on a journey with my friends to improve my cultivation a bit. I will be temporarily leaving this realm. Rest assured that we will et again no matter what."
When the rest of the team saw this, they couldn’t help but sneer in their hearts. This guy successfully managed to con all these people and made them believe that he is so kind of expert. But he is a prisoner on the mountain. Just by taking advantage of the flashy formation set up which caused the path to be riddled with lightning, he managed to make everyone believe that he is so kind of big shot and even kept the enemies of the realm in check.
Sam returned after he collected all the cylinders.
"Wrap up your act here. We are leaving as soon as we can. I have many things to do. This ti, we are not going back to desolate. We are directly going to our last candidate on the list. I will take so rest. Saber Monarch, brief the team on the next candidate."
With that Sam left to take so rest.
The whole process went smoothly, but it left so serious stress on his body, he needs to recuperate properly.
anwhile, Saber Monarch started briefing on the last candidate for recruitnt.
"The person we are trying to recruit next is nad Night Ghost."
"Wait. Night Ghost? You are kidding right?"
Vidyut imdiately interrupted as soon as Saber Monarch spoke.
"No, I am not kidding. We are really going after the Night Ghost."
"But the Night Ghost is just a rumor."
"No, it is not. We investigated it ourselves and we even saw him with our own eyes. The person nad Night Ghost exists and it is not just a myth."
Sia replied from the side.
Saber Monarch continued.
The Night Ghost. He is a guy who stays in a demon realm within a mountain. He has an old rivalry with the Ash Demon family. They killed his wife and he swore that he would kill the Ash demon family as a whole.
But currently, the Ash Demon family only knew that Night Ghost is their enemy, but they don’t know why they beca enemies and what his true intention is.
And since they cannot have soone who can challenge their authority in their own territory, they simply made rumors and spread them wildly making people believe that Night Ghost is a myth and everything is being done by so kind of weird mutated beast in the forest.
Night Ghost didn’t care about anything. He just cultivates in that forest and kills every hostile intruder and every Ash Demon that enters that forest.
He is actually a Ghost cultivator. Although Similar to soul necromancy it is slightly different.
A soul necromancer is soone who uses the souls as his subordinates in a fight and the souls don’t have anything to do with their cultivation, but a ghost cultivator uses his own body and mind as a house for the souls which turn into ghosts and use them to attack. As they consu energy from souls and living objects, he increases his cultivation.
So, be on guard when we go there."
