Above The Sky-Chapter 1755 - 344: Elan’s Growth and Carlos’s Divine Arts

The wind attribute can isolate almost all forces from affecting the holder, including gravity, reactive force, and inertia. Whether moving or attacking, it is extremely fast, outrunning flying birds in no time. The price, however, is that it’s used up particularly quickly; accumulated fighting spirit is depleted in less than a minute.

In the short term, research into fighting spirit stands thus.

Fighting spirit is degraded ether. It can strengthen the body, and its destructive power far exceeds typical First Energy Level means. Fighting spirit can promote the awakening of hidden bloodlines, and attribute-based fighting spirit possesses quite outstanding abilities, although the costs should not be ignored.

These abilities are quite remarkable.

Although, upon reaching the Third Energy Level, sublimators capable of condensing primal aether can outstrip even surpass fighting spirit’s advantages, the Third Energy Level itself is a hero unit, rare as it may be. Each possesses Conscious Lightbody and various powerful Bloodline True Form capabilities, surpassing simple fighting spirit, so it’s not surprising.

Moreover, at that time, Silverpeak Domain sublimators who have trained in fighting spirit can also manipulate primal aether, and because of their adaptation to fighting spirit, they will have a better tolerance for aether, controlling more primal aether and doing so more smoothly, which is also an advantage.

In fact, at the Third Energy Level, Silverpeak Domain monks can fuse the Four Great Primitive Spirit Energies, surpassing the three-element primal aether to become controllers of the four-element ether!

This is precisely taking the lead step by step. In the future, due to early adaptation to the aether, there’s a chance that the lifespan of fighting spirit sublimators will exceed that of ordinary sublimators!

However, promoting fighting spirit is indeed a problem.

The reason all participants in the first phase training camp are willing to engage in experiments related to fighting spirit is due to witnessing Miles’s astounding scene of awakening fighting spirit and then smashing a stone pillar with a single punch, as well as witnessing Silverpeak Domain’s remarkable rescue capabilities, knowing that as long as they cooperate with the experiments, their lives are not at risk.

Moreover, they could receive preferential allocation of Silverpeak Domain resources.

With all these reasons combined, they naturally are willing to bear the risk.

But there aren’t many other experimenters in other aspects. This is actually an unavoidable issue. Unlike Fiery Flame Land, the People of Silverpeak live too comfortably. Even if the laboratory side offers hefty rewards for assisting experimental personnel, when faced with the possibility of life-threatening experiments, not many are willing to participate, especially among high aptitude children of suitable age.

Yet, still, some opted to join.

This was Ian’s brother, Elan.

"Elan, are you sure... you want to join?"

In the office, even Ian couldn’t remain composed upon seeing the applicant’s name, immediately summoning Elan in, asking earnestly, "I’m not stopping you from participating in the experiment. I just want to confirm your true thoughts."

"The Path of Douqi is just in its infancy and far from perfected. Pioneers will face many trials and hardships. You’re not that old, there’s no need to rush."

"Brother."

Yet, Elan calmly placed his hand on his chest, speaking earnestly, "I’ve thought it through. Precisely because the Path of Douqi hasn’t fully developed, I should join."

The young White Folks seemed to anticipate his brother’s attitude; he slowly explained, "The development and prosperity of Silverpeak Domain all depend on your power, brother."

"As long as you’re here, Silverpeak Domain can remain worry-free. But I cannot merely live like this, sheltered under your wings."

"Arcane Pathway, Meditation Technique, Essence Furnace Core... all developed independently by you, brother. Everyone learns, as your disciples."

"But, the Path of Douqi is not like this. It requires improvement, and the territory’s best elites are all researching it."

Elan talked about the first training camp, not only considered by Ian as the future foundation but known by others that those emerging from the first training camp are all destined for significant roles in the future.

And Elan valued this very point.

He earnestly stated, "I need to be a part of your territory, brother."

"Not merely as your brother... but as a genuine member of the territory, establishing ties with everyone... truly becoming part of Silverpeak Domain."

"Of course," scratching his cheek awkwardly, Elan bashfully lowered his gaze, "Because everyone in the training camp is important. I hope, through this fighting spirit experiment, not only can I enhance my power but also build good relations with them."

"In case there are problems in the future, maybe I’ll know sooner... Having connections can also help you manage them, brother."

If it were traditional family relations or political cultivation literature, Elan’s words frankly echoing intent to intertwine with future management for power would be pervasive.

"Good!"

But in Terra, in Ian’s eyes, Elan’s words were sincerely comforting, irresistibly pulling Elan into an embrace, warmly ruffling his hair, "Wonderful! Elan, finally, my territory has someone understanding interpersonal relations, even a little!"

"Great, really grow up quickly, help lessen your brother’s worries."

"Eh?"

Being hugged tightly, Elan instead looked bewildered, his heart puzzled, "Didn’t I just say normal things?"

"Why is brother so excited?"

Precisely because it’s ’ordinary’, it brings comfort.
