Chapter 15 Overpower

After lamenting his fate, he take out two horn he get from the wild beast and create a hilt for his new weapon. The hilt is almost as long as his arm and he use the whole two horn for Solidus.

He spend the whole afternoon refining the solidus sword and sharpening it. No matter how long he sharpened his sword, it's still black. The whole body surface is crude the sword is too hard to use regular stone as a whetstone. When the sky start getting dark, he completely gave up sharpening the sword.

Nod with satisfying expression, he check the progress at the center of the village.

All the beast have been skinned and cut up but there's just too many of it that they're still busy. The center of the village is lively and packed with people, shout and laughter constantly filling the atmosphere. The womens is busy smoking and drying the meat a couple of newly built fireplace while the mens busy processing the meat. The youngest is tasked with cleaning and transporting. Boris and his daughter processing the skin and other material.

"how the progress?" Lucis didn't bother greeting the other people and going straight to grandma Nan. Grandma Nan and Luna seems to be discussing something and it look quite serious.

"Lucis." Luna shout in surprise when Lucis appeared out of nowhere.

She sizing him again before calming down. " everything going smooth. But you brought too many meat at once.." she frown and look at Lucis.

After pausing a bit, she continue continue. " turning all of these to preserve meat will be difficult. We don't have enough firewood and salt. Firewood is easily solve but salt... we already gather from the whole village but it's still not enough." grandma Nan and Luna look at Lucis.

"well.. the sea is too far.. " Lucis stroke his chin feeling guilty.

"please consult with us first the next time you want to do something this big." Luna cross her arm trying to look as women with authority.

There's nothing Lucis can do about it. Even he didn't expect to hunt this many in just one night actually. He just casually stroll beyond the seven mountain and found out that there's just too many wild beast. This world is pretty interesting for him.

"I'll do something about the lack of firewood tomorrow. I'm too tired today.. Well, good night." he quickly turn around and ran back home. He really doesn't want to deal with Luna at this moment. In just one day, she already acting boss at him. If he stay longer with her, maybe he'll be her slave.

After appreciating solidus sword one more time, he sat and brew energy gathering potion. The process is smooth with the aid with his wood energy.

At this moment, he barely have 63 drop of energy after painstaking cultivate since he arrived here. The progress is just too slow.

The alchemy process only take him 1 hour and he got 2 portion of energy gathering potion. He never learn any energy gathering recipe from the clan, in fact, hes not allowed to. he doesn't know how his recipe compare with other. He doesn't even know how it look like so when he finished his potions he's greatly surprised.

"why is the color green?.. It's not poisoned right?" he sniff a bit and the smell is like crushed leaf.

He poke with his finger and lick it. It's bitter and taste like crushed plant. He start doubting the potion.

After a long time considering, he brace himself, close his eyes and grit his teeth and drank one portion. He gulped down unwillingly like it is some kind of expired milk.

After waiting for a moment, he frown. "nothing happened!" he look down and examine his body.

He take out the brown jade and scan the recipe and examine it. Making sure he didn't make any mistake.

After 10 minutes or so, his abdomen suddenly getting hot.

He quickly sat down meditating and examined the hot substance in his body. He never eat or drink any elixir and doesn't know what exactly going on at this moment.

The temperature slowly rising and he start sweating bullet. He completely have no idea what's going on. The detail explain the potion as assistant to cultivating.

He quickly circulate his energy and try to process the hot energy in his body. Surprisingly, as soon as he activate the wood energy technique, he doesn't even need to convert the energy. It just absorbed and mix together with the energy in his body.

Like a desert that get water for the first time, it feel really comfortable and cool down in his body.

Soon there's additional drop of energy formed in his body and it continue condensing more drop like he's absorbing endless energy from extremely thick energy flow. It even make him a bit uncomfortable with how fast the whole process going on.

After 2 hour, he finally absorb all the potion in his body. He went from 63 and straight to 80 drop of energy greatly surpassing his expectations.

"holy cow!" he jump up in surprise. " so this is magic elixir.. amazing!" he look at his newly gained strength and smile happily. He experienced with all his power and test his limit. That night, the villagers is frightening by him greatly. He jump around and casting spell here and there. Good thing he didn't swing around his Solidus sword or everyone would be running for their life. He look crazy.

After wasting energy for no reason, he returned inside and drink the last portion before continue cultivating. After he finished that one, he brew another 2 portion and going straight to cultivate.

And... the next day come.

He slowly open his eyes at dawn. Some of the adults still working at the center of the village processing the meat. He barely manage to contain his smile. He's brimming with power from head to toes and he even start to glow faintly in the dark.

He's currently have 135 power in him. Other people with this amount of power usually already formed their foundation and fly around. The only disadvantage he have against them is the amount of skill he can use.

The most notable skill for people that have form their foundation successfully is riding magic item and fly around. They also can use more advance spell like dragons breath and wind cutter.

Of course Lucis can also control wind and fire but it's only the most basic way. Without external help like magic item or the said elements nearby, he can't use more powerful flame, he can't compress the wind and perform wind cutter, he can't freezer water or control heavy objects or else his meridian will shattered.

He only can summon stronger wind, bigger fire or similar like that. He have the amount and not the qualification.

The most disadvantages is range. He only can control his power and light object near him but he can control for a long time with the amount of energy he have.

He look at his body with satisfied nod. He stand up and eagerly want to test his power.

Just when he casually take a step forward, he trip down.

"what! How's that happened?" he stand up again and take another step but he almost trip again.

"what the hill, I can't control my body." he start sweating as he examined his body. Sadly he doesn't have anyone to guide him in cultivation or else he would be expecting this.

The important part about wood energy technique is vitality. With how fast he's cultivating, he miss calculated his own strength. Usually internal energy only make him a bit stronger in flesh body as he raise his power, but the technique he cultivate is greatly refined his body flesh making him as powerful as body cultivator. Not only he have great strength, he also have strong healing ability.

The owner of the cave where he got this technique from never cultivate it personally, in fact he can't. He's already forming his soul by the time he got the whole collection of this jade. At this point, not even one of the skill in all these 6 jade he can use because of lack pure wood energy.

Everything in it is created specially for the pure wood energy cultivation technique.

Annoyed by the person that created this, he took out the set jade from the original storage and put it in a normal sack and take all the treasure in it including the storage item.
