wake up 2

Sam directly entered the old cave that he had dug out from, Everything has remained the same. 

Even the shallow pool, but when he observed with the spiritual sense he could see that a tiny portion of the liquid essence had disappeared. 

He soon understood the reason, there were more earth crystals in the area than before.

He soon reached the conclusion that this was due to the disappearance of the sphere, this place was never a naturally formed earth elemental mountain.

  But something someone had created with great effort. 

It was probably some kind of formation that absorbed earth elemental energy from the surrounding and the core of that formation was the golden sphere which he took.

Sam knew it would be a great loss if he let the earth essence liquid to disperse like this so he was determined to place the sphere back in the pool after he dealt with the evil sword.

He didn't want any unwanted change to happen when he was on the platform by placing the sphere back now, so he postponed it . 

He went towards the platform and started observing the platform slowly with his spiritual sense.

But it was no surprise to him that he didn't find any energy fluctuation. With his current level of affinity with the earth he should have been able to detect the tiniest of the energy fluctuations in earth.

But he also knew that the person who created this place was no ordinary being . 

It was well evident to him after observing the boundary between the smoke and this land. 

He couldn't detect the tiniest of any energy fluctuations.

After observing the place for some more time, he made his decision to go forward.

When he took the first step his heart was beating like a war drum. 

But nothing happened, he took the next step and continued.

When he reached the area where he was ejected from the platform earlier, he paused for a second but continued.

To his surprise nothing happened this time, also he has been continuously observing the platform with his spiritual sense to retreat the moment he noticed any change. 

But nothing happened, it was like this was just another platform made of stone. 

He continued to move forward and reached near the evil sword which was wrapped in chains.

He became unsure all of a sudden, because he had noticed a change.

  The chains that were wrapped around the sword had changed its color, it was slowly changing from brown to black.

He didn't observe it closely with the spiritual sense before, due to fear of activating something. 

But now when he was so close he probed with spiritual sense slowly, he could also see that there were tiny golden symbols on the chain.

He knew he had to perform a certain ritual according to the message sent by the evil sword. 

He took out a small black metal piece and cut the inside of his hand, blood started flowing out, then he started drawing one symbol after another around the sword on the platform. 

After drawing 18 weird symbols he connected the symbols to the sword with a blood line over the chain. 

Then he drew three more small symbols on the only visible part of the sword, the hilt.

He didn't know if the ritual would work as he had changed the number of symbols given by the evil sword and added three more extra symbols.

The three symbols were what he had got, when he was in the enlightened state.

  These were symbols representing sealing, stability and support.

After doing all these he started filling all the symbols with his energy from dantain at the same time trying to connect with the sword through spiritual sense.

  After some time all the symbols along with blood were absorbed into the sword and a single symbol was formed on the hilt which got absorbed into the sword. 

Sam didn't stay there and jumped back.

The sword started vibrating and started turning red in color, the chain was also vibrating now and absorbed a little of Sam's blood. 

Some time later the vibration came to a stop and Sam could feel a special link with the sword as if they were long lost friends. 

He had a feeling that if he summoned this new friend of his, the friend will come to him instantly and nothing would be able to stop it from coming to him. 

And he did the same unknowingly.

The sword disappeared from the platform leaving only the chains behind, the next instant it was right in front of his face and floating in the air.

  The sword hung only a few centimeters away from his face, his face started getting covered in cold sweats.

He was prepared to use a special technique that he had come up with when in the enlightened state.

  But the speed of the sword was beyond his imagination, it was like instant teleportation.

A teen girl's voice was heard...

" where am I , hah.... who am I ....why can't I remember anything..."
