Chapter 596 Mastery



Researching how to replicate spatial transportation over a long distance was certainly not easy.

Even though it got a lot easier when he retrieved a bunch of useful runic devices that he had used in the past, not even the teleportation device of the Old Elf Crevian could answer a bunch of questions.

It was necessary to use spatial-attributed mana to start and finish the creation of the teleportation devices, and particular runic solutions were needed. To create the runic solutions, one required more than ten spatial-type ingredients, and the use of spatial-attributed mana that had been diffused with mana, amassed, and purified.

Nial had once asked Master Crevian about the creation process of those long-distance teleportation devices similar to the one he had used when he returned from the Alliance City, but the answers he received had been quite displeasing.

In the end, Nial was not able to recreate the process, not with the resources in his possession, let alone with his nonexistent spatial affinity. If he were to use the squirrel\'s spatial affinity, it might work out but he would never be able to observe the entire procedure properly, let alone attempt configuring the product of his research. That meant he would have to gamble on the success of the finished product.

Analyzing the resources in his possession up to the finest detail worked out decently fine. Nial found out what he possessed and what kind of ingredients he was missing out on when it came to recreating the long-distance device of Old Elf Crevian.

Another thing was that he couldn\'t upgrade Crevian\'s device to teleport him a distance worth several hundred, if not thousands of lightyears because the mana consumption would end up depriving the entire stellar system of its mana before the device would be filled. Maybe that was not even enough!

The only solution Nial could come up with was to create his own teleportation device, in his way.

He researched all kinds of things for nearly three months and came up with a somewhat decent solution. The Grasp of Eclipse technique used a unique type of spatial affinity if one could consider it such. He could travel through shadows using the said movement technique. That was, quite literally, his unique version of space traveling as he momentarily distorted the space to jump from one place to another.

It never felt like a spatial-type movement technique when he used it but it certainly was.

Since Nial was able to use the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique, it should be possible for him to do bigger jumps through shadows as well. He may need some time to figure out how, but using dark energy, Chaos, crimson moonlight and the Essence of Darkness in the most efficient way should do the deal.

Of course, he was in need of a device to store mana or to amplify the effect of his Grasp of Eclipse technique, but that was something he could think about later.

\'If I reach the latest stage I can reach at the Keltia rank, with perfect mastery, I should be able to understand the technique much better…shouldn\'t that be enough to understand how to recreate the distortion of space that happens when I jump through the shadows with my movement technique?\' Nial thought, not exactly sure if his plan was enough.

However, there was not exactly much he could do right now, other than testing out a bunch of things. Using Forgotten Runic constellations in combination with a perfect understanding of the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique would certainly allow him to take a step closer to his final goal.

\'This fucking bitch and the Roboter-like Primordial…if Bella wasn\'t dead, I would definitely skin her alive and throw her into space after crushing her Mana Sea…\' He cursed the Spectran and the dead Saintess of the Angels for the Xth time in the last sixth month.

He shook his head and started training, and researching the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique. It was about time that he improved his technique and that he got back to Jundra. He had too many things to do to stay in a stellar system without proper Originals.

Funnility enough, Nial was worshipped as some sort of godly existence by the few folks he encountered even though he was still far from becoming a God.

Nial was not weak but most existences in this stellar system certainly were weak. Those weaker than him were underdeveloped races who had yet to find out how to create runic armaments, or anything great of use.

Nial didn\'t even think of helping them out, but observing them through his range of perception calmed him quite a bit every now and then.

\'Now let\'s see how long I will need to master this technique…and understand it in its essence!\' Nial told himself, not knowing that he was about to spend close to 18 months exerting the Grasp of Eclipse technique in space, every single day, more than 20 hours a day…

Time passed eerily slowly and Nial could hardly perceive any improvements in his utilization of the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique.

It made him feel like he was bound to stay in the stellar system for the rest of his life. It was a ridiculous thought and certainly not something Nial was willing to accept. Whenever he was stuck and couldn\'t progress anymore, he focused on his desires, cultivated them for a while, and then returned to the task at hand.

He knew that it was important to complete his mission first. Thus, giving his utmost and using the memories of the Late God of Darkness that had been imprinted on his mind to his advantage, Nial ended up with the perfect mastery of the Grasp of Eclipse\'s first and second stages.

The third stage required him to have finished his first Darkness Temple, whatever the reason for that may be.

For now, Nial didn\'t have a Darkness Temple in his Sea of Darkness. It would take quite a while before he would reach that level, and he rather found a solution to teleport through stellar systems at the Keltia rank than spend a decade or two to reach the Mythician rank and practice the third stage of the Grasp of Eclipse technique to the perfect mastery.

As for the new mission he had in mind, Nial would start experimenting jumping through stellar systems using the creations he started with quite a while ago.
