Chapter 93: New Legend Part 2
Unlike the previous times, he didn't take a single moment to think which two energies he should merge because his mind was clear and he could think of a positive and negative aspects of his actions in a mere second.
He directly goes with Spiritual Energy and Mana. As for the other two energies, he has star force and sword energy. But there lays a problem, to merge two different energies, it takes just more than perfecting Double Energy Different Energy Art.
He needs mastery or experience of this art for more than decades or so. That is, he needs that much time to merge two energies together from the microscopic level. Not just microscopic level, even lower to sub-atomic level.
But he has his own A.I. and he is kind of a genius too. So he might take a lot less than those noob who took more than ten years. He doesn't believe in 'Practice makes a man perfect'. He believes 'Only perfect practice makes a man perfect'.
That is why he didn't cultivate further in sword at the great chance he had. He knows the way to practice sword in an earlier stage is by physical practice, not spiritual.
Fortunately, he was lucky because he has entered the Enlightenment. Here he can judge things to a greater extent and also perfect this art. So merging two different energies from a sub-atomic level is not an easy task.
For this, he needs powerful Mind Sense to see, hear, taste, smell, and feel, and use his sixth sense which is the 'Sense' itself to make changes at the sub-atomic level. And once again, due to enlightenment he was granted the to see things clearly, hear everything normal, feel and learn everything, smell whether it is going to be trouble or not, unfortunately, he can't taste that energy.
Spiritual Energy is rather an icy kind of energy, it doesn't have a cold attribute or something like that, but by nature, it feels cooler. On other hand, Mana is kind of comfy. It comforts the body and heart. That is the love of mana, loved by nature.
To merge these two energies, he takes Spiritual energy as ice even though it is clearly not, just for a reference. And he takes Mana as fire just for reference too. Ice and Fire are already kind of like a dead end.
One burns, one freeze, if you want to merges them, they will just negate each other. Of course, that is if the amount of balanced. Ice can also be burn, just add some calcium carbide and burn the ice. That is something he learned from his science class.
But here he is not playing with ice and fire; he is trying to merge two different energies to form a new one. The most basic way is by putting it to an enormous pressure that forces to change the molecules. But no one has identified the molecules of neither spiritual energy nor mana, it is just like dark energy shrouded in mystery.
So if he wants to merge them, he needs to study the deeper atomic structure of the spiritual energy and mana. The difference is quite notable, as he began to check he found spiritual energy condensed with lots of vitality while mana was condensed with different molecules in random formation.
Of course, he can guess these formations are not random but he can't figure why there are literally three thousand different formations in it. But the more he found, the more he understands. Because whenever he felt he doesn't know, the enlightenment golden light fills his brain with knowledge.
So basically, those three thousand formations are three thousand daos. And mana is already formed with these three thousand daos which helps a person to use the power of elements that all come under daos.
And as he dug more in mana history he founds the mana is created by the universal laws based on three thousand daos, and not every universe can form such energy. Mana is also energy. Suddenly, a thought struck his mind.
Spiritual energy is basically vitality; mana is basically formations of three thousand daos. And if he takes out vitality from the spiritual energy and three thousand daos from the mana, can't he produce completely new energy with nothing in its core.
Of course, it will just be an empty force. But hey, if he can do it and create an empty shell of energy, then he should also be able to fill that energy with another source. Basically, he doesn't need a source, because his newly formed energy has already had a source, the only thing he removed was mastery from mana.
A magician uses mana, he lightens his mana with his element, and that element is also under one of the three thousand daos. His mana already has a source and the mastery of that element comes from those three thousand daos formations.
If he takes out, three thousand daos all he will be left with is a source. So, in another word, his newly formed energy won't just be a shell, it will be more than a shell.
Again, a martial artist uses spiritual energy. He uses this energy to enhance his body with the vitality contained inside of it. Once vitality runs out, he fills the energy with the element he has mastery over. So in other, he needs a source to fill that energy and also master that element.
From a normal perspective, it could be seen that man has much more advantages over spiritual energy and that is also true. But spiritual energy has a vitality which increases the health and lifespan of a martial artist while magician needs to gain lifespan from nature when they break through into new realms.
So Johnny's plan is to form this new energy with a source. Then, the only thing he needs is an element to lighten the source that he already has mastery over that element. But here is one major advantage.
If he really creates this energy, he completely walks on a different path than others because he can change the attribute of his element as he wants. He will no longer be bound by the laws of those elements.
Fire is hot. Everyone knows that, right? And that is the universal truth, but fire can also freeze. Is it? Johnny recently saw a planet in his journey through one galaxy to another galaxy. He didn't see much, but he was fascinated when he saw a planet that has blue flames, but instead of burning these flames has frozen the entire planet.
That was extremely surprising for him, if it wasn't for his brother creating billions of swords to slaughter billions of creatures, he would've been focused on that planet alone. And at that moment, he realized the universe is truly mysterious and one day, not too long at least within five years, he is going to set his journey in the universe.
So his idea works on the same concept, nearly the concept except his idea is much more profound. Now that he had the idea of new energy, he is no longer abided by the rules that were created by whosoever.
He no longer needs to work under the existing rules, just like that planet which makes fire cold, he can also do such stuff. Just in a better way. He can not only make his fire cold but also give his fire a lightning attribute.
He basically burrows the attribute of any of three thousand daos after mastering them first and adds it to his elements. But here is a major problem. If he wants to do this, he needs to find a way to form a completely new space connected with his inner space and man space.
That is not an easy task at all, because those spaces were already created at his birth, or at least developed during his childhood. So it is not an easy task to form an element. More importantly, there is another problem that was developed during this process.
He can't sit down and convert merge two of his energies every single time. He has no time to do so. He has a lot of other things to do, and most importantly, he won't be able to sit down and merge the energies in the battle.
So basically, he needs something that can do this job for him. Of course, his A.I. is a clever solution but not a permanent one. He can't just rely on his A.I. all the time. He didn't do that recently when A.I. tried to control his body to use the chance of enlightenment for maximum benefits.
He didn't choose to do so, because whatever he gains from such enlightenment, he needs to gain on his own. He can't just rely on his A.I. for everything. His A.I. is for support, for making his life easier, for making things better, for doing things efficiently, not for controlling him.
Previously, it was like A.I. controlling his body and that is not something he wants. His A.I. could be his non-human best friend but that is the limit, he can't let A.I. cross such limits. But he needs A.I. support for other things, such as finding a solution for him.
And that is what he asked his A.I. to do. As a response, he got a sound in his brain, still in the enlightenment but he could hear the sound of A.I. and control his body. That is the power of Enlightenment Stone, unlike normal enlightenment; it is more artificial and efficient.
