Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

He tried to lower his speed but that didn't make much difference already, so he aimed toward reducing the distance crossed in his next attempts.

The technique allowed him to flash for more than a hundred metres without any problem. But to make the spirit power consumption lower, he had to decrease that range from one hundred metres down to thirty metres only.

In return for such a decrease in range, the spirit power consumption became less than ten percent. And for him, this was simply perfect!

Trying to lower this distance anymore ended up failing in executing the technique. Not to mention trying to get the enemy from a distance of twenty metres or shorter wasn't practical in many situations.

"Time to try out the third move then…" as he got satisfied with such results, he started to shift his attention towards the light based move.

He didn't hurry to test his darkness element based move as he knew it was going to take more time to make it compatible with the other two moves.

He first decided to execute the lightning and light based moves before trying out the darkness move in the middle of the two.

As he took more than half of the night to perform the first move, he expected the night would be over and he'd be able to barely finish the second move.

He planned to get little rest after fully executing the third move the way he desired.

Then he'd meet up with the two girls, get to know what they knew about the dark spirit masters and their plans. Then it'd come down to his storage ring's secret, and finally he'd try to execute the second darkness based move and merge it with the other two as well.

He expected that by the end of the third day, he'd be able to execute such a technique in its basic way. It'd take longer time and much effort for him to master such a technique, but he wasn't in a hurry to do so right now.

Using the simple version of it was enough for him to execute something heaven shaking in the eyes of other spirit masters, enough to protect his life against much stronger spirit masters.

Not to mention during the time he'd take to go to the Long clan, come back here to study in the academy, he'd get many chances to hunt down more monsters and elevate his spirit power.

The more spirit power he had the better his chances in executing this technique in its full power.

So, he just wanted to learn the basic form of this technique for now. And three days were enough for him to do so.

However, he truly underestimated the light based move he was learning!

"Damn! What a fierce explosion!!" Unlike what he expected, just from the first try, he succeeded in executing the third part. However, the explosion that happened was fierce enough to suck almost the entirety of his spirit power dry!

"Hoof! Hoof! If I didn't drop the sword at the right moment… Hoof! Hoof!"

He was now lying on the ground, at the edge of a deep crater that looked as if an asteroid just hit this place. Thick tongues of dust and smoke rose up from this hole that extended to five metres down.

In the middle of it, his gold sword was inserted all the way to its hilt, deeply stabbing the ground.

William stayed there for almost half an hour before finally getting back part of his strength and spirit power. He hurriedly sat on the ground and thought about what just happened.

"That light move is really formidable! With my current spirit power, I can't tolerate such fierce consumption. And even when I stopped it, it ended up creating such a crater… Damn fierce!"

Despite feeling helpless about the insane consumption that he felt, he was still impressed by how brutal such a move was!

It was even suitable to be a separate technique on its own!

In his eyes, if he tried to execute the entire technique as he envisioned, then a fierce explosion would erupt, one that was on a whole new level than the one that just happened minutes ago.

But he also realised that using such a move as a standalone technique wouldn't be possible without reaching at least silver grade spirit master rank. Or else he'd end sucked dry, facing the same fate as those nine Golden Sky disciples from before.

The part he executed was related to stacking up slashes and releasing them in predetermined directions.

As he didn't yet try out the darkness element move, he had to use the moves from the initial light technique. But instead of moving the sword in star shapes, he did it in a simple slashing way while using his spirit's light element in each wave of the sword.

"I only managed to use ten slashes! Only ten! They didn't even follow the standard star shaped movement! And that ended up causing such a ruckus… I also failed to control the direction properly as I abruptly ended the technique… So, what will happen if these ten strikes get combined together into one? Interesting…"

He kept training and replenishing his exhausted spirit power for almost one hour. During this, he started to change the layout of his move.

"Instead of focusing on making twenty strikes, I can only do five…" he considered such a possibility.

He already succeeded in pulling such a move, but he had to tweak how to put it under leash.

​ Things happened too fast for him to detect which part consumed the most of his spirit power. But he could tell that one thing in that move consumed most of his power.

Seeing the damage he brought to the garden made him crave for the final combined form of attack. "I need to try it again…" he stood up and decided to give it another try, not fearing to end up like the first time.

This time he decided to drop trying to control the direction of each slash. He knew by using the darkness element he'd be able to execute the same destructive power. Yet he wanted to see which part took the most of his spirit power before anything else.
