Chapter 615 - The Final Sword Technique Is Ready
He excelled before at experimenting where trials came with much joy with their failures and journey to success. He missed this after coming here to this world, and now he had this old feeling resurface again as he tested the merge of his three techniques.
"You are weird," the golden dragon commented.
"Ding! No one would find joy in failing time over time like you do," the system said.
"I see this interesting and amusing," Gege had a different opinion, yet Arthur knew she was just trying to back him up.
"Testing is the evidence of being smart," Arthur only said that before laughing, "only fool dudes will give up after one or two failures."
"…"
"…"
"That\'s my man!"
"Hehehe," he laughed before adding, "as we have everything set, let\'s see how this technique would end up to."
He then started the merging process again. This time he was ready. Gege knew how much pearl energy she would provide to him while he knew the amount of his dragonair energy needed to activate and maintain the third technique.
And yet…
"Boom!"
"Rumble!"
"Boom!"
Everytime he tried he failed miserably one time after another.
"What\'s wrong?" he finally lost his patience.
"What\'s up smart man? Didn\'t you just boost a couple of hours ago about the benefit of testing and failing?" the golden dragon sneered while Arthur totally ignored his remark.
"Is there a problem with the energy flow rate?" he asked, trying to find the sore spot hidden from his keen senses.
"Ding! Everything goes fine until the three energies try to merge then they explode," the system said.
"Is the problem in the amount of energy needed from the sword epic or what?" he muttered, "or the issue lies in my spiritual energy?"
"I think the problem happens when the three energies try to form a new energy together," Gege suddenly said a very wise remark, "the final energy can\'t be stabilized and it will explode."
"But we already have the pearl\'s energy as the merge of the other two," the golden dragon said while trying to be wise as well.
"You both are correct indeed," Arthur suddenly shouted before yelling, "yes, it\'s this issue then."
"What issue?" Gege was lost even when she read up his mind.
"We shouldn\'t let the three energies merge," Arthur said with a shimmering eye, "instead we should let them merge together under the umbrella of the golden pearl\'s energy."
"Ding! What\'s with that logic? Why do I feel I didn\'t understand a thing?" the system asked in loss while the other two kept their silence.
"Let\'s try and you\'ll see for yourself," Arthur laughed as if he already succeeded in his trials. "Gege, when the third technique merges, increases the amount of the pearl\'s energy to maximum."
"Are you sure?" she hesitantly asked.
"One hundred percent positive," he laughed before adding, "let\'s finish this technique now and go out to test it in that world."
"What\'s with the world outside?" Gege asked in a loss.
"Ding! Have you forgotten? It\'s a higher world with more restriction over his energies," the system said.
"He won\'t be able to exert even one tenth of the final technique\'s power out there," the golden dragon explained further and she only mumbled something Arthur couldn\'t get.
"Alright," he was so excited now, "let\'s do it."
He started to take the position required to activate his sword dance again before hastily jumping around. The sword phantom was successfully created and then coated with the fire.
"Here I go," he warned, "be sure to increase the energy flow by maximum once I finished performing the technique."
"Just focus," Gege sighed while he started to move to activate his sword epic technique. The steps he took were heavy and in less than a few seconds the sword was covered by his blood.
As usual the blood seeped towards the phantom image to start integrating into it. "Now," he shouted and the next instant he felt his golden pearl shook inside his dantian to release its full power at last.
"It\'s working," he laughed while watching the blood being coated with golden aura that started crushing it into minute drops. Each drop of his blood was now coated with golden energy, and looking from his spot he felt he was looking at a bloodbath scene.
"Swoosh!"
Suddenly the many blood droplets started to rotate around the phantom sword taking it as its axis. The sword inside was calm at first, yet with the increasing speed of the blood rotation it started to get restless while it became slightly hazy.
Then everything started to grow bigger. His phantom sword kept enlarging while being coated with the blood that started to dissipate inside it, and finally everything was covered with the golden blue fire.
"Boom!"
The sword image suddenly exploded, causing a muffled explosive sound before it vanished from his sight. "What\'s happening?" he asked.
"Ding! The three techniques merged successfully," the system said before laughing, "Ding! Congratulations, you managed to create the ultimate technique."
Arthur didn\'t hurry to celebrate as he started moving this gigantic and heavy looking sword of golden blue fire around. "It feels light despite looking so heavy on first glance," he muttered before glancing towards a distant spot where a small hill was standing in the far distance.
"Would it reach it?" he muttered before taking the small steps of the fire sword technique once again as he added, "would it destroy it?"
"Hahaha, you\'ll only know if you try," Gege was already in a good mood.
"Release it kid," the golden dragon said in excitement, "let\'s see what all these hours\' effort will bring at the end."
"Watch then," Arthur smiled before finishing his moves. Once he did, the fire sword he was now holding with his other hand vibrated softly as if it was announcing to the world its birth.
Then he jumped high in the air and released the sword strike towards the hill.
"…"
A heavy silence suddenly emerged while a small sword strike moved in great speed towards the hill. Arthur felt like the entire world\'s noises here got crushed under this strike, and he felt great threat and nervousness from it.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The strike then started to cause explosions one after another. With each explosion it got bigger and its speed grew fast until it moved like light.
"Boom!"
And when it hit its mark, it broke off to cover the entire hill with a layer of golden blue fire before the hill collapsed in front of Arthur\'s eyes, turned into a pile of dust.
And even the dust didn\'t last for a few seconds before it was burnt away into nothing.
"Damn!" he shouted in amazement, "this is really cool!"
"Hahaha, this is amazing," Gege laughed, "I loved it!"
"You finally had a weapon to fight against those of higher planes, "the golden dragon said, "but we need to test it first."
"Ding! Should I call Doaf and others?" the system asked.
"No," Arthur shook his head, "I need to get familiar with this technique first," he paused before muttering while closing up his eyes, "how is the golden pearl\'s expenditure?"
"Under control, sir," Gege laughed, "I managed to replenish the lost energy in no time."
"Great," he reopened his eyes after checking over his meridians, dantian, and dragonair\'s energy status. "Now the question is how much can I last with it in a war?"
