Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer
chapter-322

Three months later.

Sam made a breakthrough to the middle-stage Level-5 and also achieved a second elemental fusion. The light element.

He was very glad that he was able to achieve it and this would increase his speed a lot, but there is a problem with this. The light elemental fusion is costing more spiritual energy than the fire elemental one.

He couldn't sustain in this state for long and can at most stay for fifteen minutes continuously.

After fifteen minutes he would be completely dry.

So, this is not an extremely feasible option, but one thing for sure is that he has the advantage of speed in this state.

He is literally a flash of a light beam as he moved from one place to another, but this also gave him a lot of troubles, he could control this state at all. The fire elemental fusion can be considered as elementary school math when compared to the light elemental fusion, which is as difficult as advanced calculus.

He has serious control problems with the light elements as the light is everywhere in the day time, he could merge into the environment easily.

But he didn't give up. He immersed himself deeply, trying to master it and his ambition didn't even stop at just mastering it. He has some further ideas on how to use this light element particularly when he discovered what he can do just by manipulating the frequency.

As for the other things, he did have some minor progress in using neutral spiritual energy like a mage.

Vickers used pure spiritual energy without any elemental attribute to create beams of energy and even used it to consolidate weapons physically. This is something he hasn't seen before, and he could see many uses for this.

He did try to just condense the spiritual energy and try to manipulate it forcefully and he is actually able to change the form quite well, although it was in the size of his fist, still, it is some progress.

But the most important problem regarding this is the spiritual energy usage and the mental strain he has to undergo to make the spiritual energy particles condense and make them dense enough to be visible to the n.a.k.e.d eye and transform into a single entity and shape he wants.

For the first try, he bled from his nose. He clearly understood the difficulty of this and as for shooting the spiritual energy as a beam, he didn't even dare to consider it for now.

He tried to do so with the spiritual energy from an energy cell. This reduced the requirement of the spiritual energy from his own body, but the mental strain increased.

Meanwhile, Philip and Jack are having a hard time as well.

Particularly, Philip. He not only has to deal with the intense training, he also has to deal with Sam's lectures, which are completely unfamiliar and complex. He doesn't know where Sam got this knowledge, but some theories made him question his very existence.

He has so many doubts about Sam's theories.

But after every doubt was clarified, he has a new world opening for him. He has always thought the metal element is just an accessory for him in close combat and simply assistance.

After he got the metal manipulation, he has a variety of additional methods he could use the metal element in close combat.

But after these three months, he has a completely new perspective, he didn't think he can see possibilities in which he can use the metal element to be his primary one. He could batter, kill, defend, and anything he wanted.

But the main requirement being two points, he has to obtain metal element fusion and also has to obtain the highest level of control he can in the metal element.

He might be lazy and slack off. But he really liked exploring these possibilities. The only thing is every time, Sam gave a lecture to him, he felt like he was dumber and dumber.

As for artisan lessons, he has wait until he mastered the precision control of the metal element.

Jack is still as hard-working as ever. Practicing all the basics every day and many times at that.

All in all, their training is a kind of smooth sailing.

But after these three months, there is some news which made Sam halt his training.

It is about the Usaine sect.

The news is that a young lady has torn the whole Usaine sect apart and there are more than five hundred deaths. She escaped and the people are still in pursuit of her.

The news was passed by the Usaine sect themselves and the lady's portrait was distributed for all the members in the thunder god temple.

He was surprised and amused at the same time when he saw the picture. It is none other than Sirona.

According to the news, she betrayed the faction, created a massacre, and escaped.

He couldn't help but smile at this. He knew this would happen. He knew that after they talked that day, there is no way that the sect could keep her.

Sam has experienced this in his previous life. His previous life was similar to hers. He was controlled, manipulated, and was made to think from only one perspective.

But once he got a new perception and thinks differently, everything changed and the change is pretty much similar to what happened now.

He could guess how the events led to his. He was oddly happy for some reason when he heard that Sirona escaped. But he is not extremely worried.

If she can escape directly from a Consummate realm cultivator, then there is a high chance they wouldn't be able to find her. So, there is no need for him to worry.

Meanwhile.

Sirona is in the western continent and precisely at Sam's city.

Ten days ago from the present day.

Sirona was in her usual training when the communication token she used to spy on the court meetings gave her an alert.

She picked it up and started listening.

"Sirona is getting too out of hand. There are twenty-five people who are crippled and ten of them are Nascent stage cultivators. There are even traps everywhere in the sect. Every disciple is getting worried about accidentally triggering a trap and dying from that mistake.

We have to stop her." One of the higher officials said in a solemn tone.

The sect-leader is in a dilemma. He thought that Sirona might have caught a new interest and let her be for some time to not force her too much. But now from the past two months or so, her behavior has become intolerable.

He doesn't know how to control her. If he really did force her to the corner, he might lose someone who is a genius in multiple trades. That is the reason which stopped him from taking any action against her.

But now, he has to think again. As more and more hidden traps are being revealed, he started to realize that Sirona might have more control over the lives of sect members than he, the sect leader himself.

Even if he wanted to kill them all, there is a high chance that there would be some people who might live, but Sirona's preparations are saying otherwise. She might really have made enough arrangements to kill everyone.

This is a big hit for his ego. He couldn't digest the thought of having a person who is supposed to do his bidding hold more control over him.

He tried to brainwash her to be a fool, for this very reason in the first place.

But he realized that there is no way for him to really control a genius completely. His plans would be in vain sooner or later.

"We will execute her, but before that, we have to get all the details regarding the traps she had set up." The Sect-leader made the decision. He might lose her genius works and expertise, but he still needs his position.

Only, the sect leader can have the power of controlling the lives of the sect members. They all have to be at his beck and call. Not the other way around.

He already sent a team of Nascent stage cultivators led by a Pre-transcendent to her residence.

But to their surprise, she wasn't there.

They became extremely alert and had a bad premonition.

Before they knew it, they heard a huge gale of wind from the core disciple yard and when they looked over, they could see a large tornado sweeping over the residences of the core disciples, tearing down everything and anything in the way.

The Elders who also live in the core disciple yard looked at Sirona who was escaping and made a move to stop her, but before they knew it, Sirona changed her direction and stood on top of a fountain in the middle of the yard and injected her spiritual energy inside.

The yard is full of rich spiritual energy and all of it was absorbed into the fountain and then passed through the ground as it moved towards the houses. The formation was activated and ten houses as nodes, the rest of them are being torn down and metallic beams of the house and all the rubble are killing the people due to the extreme wind force. Before they knew it, the entire core region is a graveyard.
