Chapter 530 Creating New Ability
After starting to work on this new research project, he first worked on turning shadow energy into crystals.
This was a unique ability. The shadow energy could be compressed into hard crystals through this unique ability.
This made them way stronger than solidified shadow energy. Even Rishi was shocked when he started studying it.
Despite having umbrakinesis, it was difficult for him to learn this ability. He did find it to be a hurdle, but it could not stop him.
He reverse-engineered the crystallization process with the help of the Phantom Golem. He saw the process of their creation and destruction.
\'As expected,\' he exclaimed, this was not the work of simple shadow manipulation. He found strange Runic patterns on the body of the creature.
When he studied them, things became clearer to him. There was a hint of the involvement of the law, which appeared in this transformation.
As a competent runemaster, it would be a shame if he could not recreate these runes into shadow runes after studying them.
While he was able to learn them in their natural form and appearance, to use them, he had to use his own understanding of them and create new runes.
This process was not easy, but in just three days, he succeeded.
He raised his hand in the air. A strange rune appeared in the air, the size of a marble. It shone purple and looked like a character from some ancient language.
The shadow energy from the area around him gathered in his palm and transformed into a fist-sized orb.
It then exploded, and gusts moved around like shockwaves. What was left was a purple crystal the size of a human nail.
He touched it and found that it was hard.
This was a minor success, but it was the base on which his future understanding would depend.
Now that he had solved the first piece of the puzzle, he drowned himself in mastering it.
Before long, it had already been a week; in the past week, he had only worked on learning about this condensation process.
He had now mastered this ability. He could create strong, elongated shards and use them to attack the opponent.
But this method was too crude; the first success did not blind Rishi. There was still a lot to do.
He dove into studying the crystals\' abilities, including their ability to let spells pass through them and their ability to grow larger.
He wanted to learn both of these abilities. His fists were etched to test the results.
After repeatedly studying the process, he knew the runes responsible for these two effects.
First, he worked on size expansion; he studied the new rune for two days and finally understood how it worked.
He then recreated it and made this rune his own. With each success in creating these new shadow runes, he noticed that his runemaster talent was improving.
When he engraved this rune on the crystal and supplemented it with energy, he noticed that it absorbed the shadow energy and expanded in size.
He was able to expand the crystal from the size of a hand to the size of a water bottle.
Next, he started mastering this ability. Slowly, he could create these crystals and even expand them faster using shadow energy.
He was different from the Phantom Golem and didn\'t require an environment full of shadow energy to use it to its full extent.
Shadow energy was one of the things that he had in excess. Not having any way to use it had limited his fighting ability.
He was more than willing if he could use a large amount of shadow energy to expand these crystals, throw them like meteors from the air, and crush his opponents.
Rishi found many opponents who had very high magic resistance. The best way to defeat them was to crush them with spells that dealt massive physical damage.
It didn\'t take him long before he could master it to a level where he could expand these crystals to one meter.
But he was not satisfied. He felt this size was not enough.
Unfortunately, he didn\'t have time to spare to increase their size, so he controlled himself and decided to learn it later.
Next, he studied the rune that allowed the crystal to let spells pass through it. This was something way easier.
His previous study on this topic helped him; he even found a clue that could let him have this ability to let the spells pass through his body.
How about that? He transforms his body into crystal and then uses this ability. He couldn\'t control his excitement.
But this also needed to wait; he had to focus on the recent research.
After he had acquired this crystallization ability for himself, he started working on the other two skills of the creatures.
Using his knowledge of runes, he could easily learn the ability \'Shadow Lance.\' He noticed that it was again the work of a rune.
The new Shadow Rune he created was called \'Defence Break\'; it allowed him to have the ability of unusual penetration.
Other than this, he also changed the shape of the tip of the crystals and had them rotate to have an even stronger effect.
After this was the ability to detonate, he already had ways to create this effect.
A primary model of a new ability appeared before him. It was a crystal the size of a human arm.
It was elongated toward the bottom part. This crystal was spinning at a high speed, like a drill.
A smile surfaced on Rishi\'s face as he clapped his hand, praising his creation. This was already a strong sense of ability.
While one \'Nether Shard\' was not enough to hurt the Epic Stage opponents, how about a dozen of them?
What? Is it still not enough? Then how about expanding them all into one meter?
Still weak. Oh! I forgot to mention they can explode, and the size of the explosion is related to size.
What use of them if opponent can intercept them in the air?
Let them try; they can become invulnerable for a moment. It can give them enough time for them to reach the opponents.
The power of this technique was enough to damage or even eliminate an Epic Stage opponent.
However, this was still not enough if the opponent had strong defensive or mobility abilities.
This was what Rishi learned from his fighting experience: It doesn\'t matter how strong your ability is if your opponent can dodge or defend against it.
The last ability, \'Shadow Transfer\' of Dusked Quill Serpent, would cover this weakness.
