After a few minutes of sitting while closing his eyes, it was sunset and edelina was sleeping besides him leaning on his shoulder, he then enter an emptiness, there was no emotion on it no happiness, no sadness, no madness, no bitterness as he was in the depth on his consciousness he saw an instance image, it was place where the red moon lie he knew it was the day since red moon is emitting light instead of the sun there were rivers of blood and a pile of corpse.
the crimson landscape. Where bloodshed is currently happening, a young man who's face covered with helmet, wearing an armor and a unique helmet with a T on it as a cover on its face but it was dark that he couldn't see even partial of the warrior's face and a red feather like paper that was hanging on the upper end of his helmet, his full body is covered with armor but he moved like the weight of it was nothing, there was a black mist that escaping the helm, and mark glimpse at the front of the man blue light shining in the darkness of the inside of the helmet, but like the robot the eyes only shine but it didn't light the face like a black knight that was only covered by armor but there was no one inside only the eyes of the black knight and his chest was shining, black knights was a soldier in the tomb of gloam mountain in the dark lands of galdia continent.
He has an unsheathed sword on his waist with a pattern of an half moon on it's hilt in the middle of the cross guard, they're are also a big star as big as the moon atop on the half moon making it a unique robot that was smiling, the two pattern was a gem, a emerald crystal that was carved into it, then mark seen the man holding a glaive? It wasn't a typical spear but a glave with a silvery gold carvings on its orichalcum handling.
it was an exquisite handling that was as green as jade and the glaive's blade was a sharp dark edge and was made by unknown metal, the figure cut his enemy to pieces with the long reach of the glaive but mark could also saw millions of soldiers fighting a drawn out war with the man in armor on it, there were also a elven archer who hit her target even when the target was far, her face was blurred as she wasn't sure who she was but her delicate dark skin was indicating she was a night elf.
There was also a woman sitting on a 'giant treant' shoulder, she uses her life energy to heal the soldier and uses moonforce to strike the enemy with moonlight spells her face also blurred and she was wearing a blue arch-mages clothing, and he wasn't sure about the staff she was holding, the big treant that looked seemingly like a golem strike the enemy with its wooden spiky hands, while the woman on his shoulder commanding the other normal sized treant.
There were also a heavy armored man in an armored big black horse holding a two sabers in both hand slashing the enemy withing his field of attack.
The image of an valiant fighter and the blood red scenario suddenly faded as he saw the blue light started to forming an empty orb like glass, it was really an exhilarating sight but he doesn't know if that was the future or a past but he clearly knows that war soon in elriden village break out.
The elriden village wasn't as big as the city and wasn't that populous compared to a city but it has geographical advantage, it was surrounded by garrion mountain ridge which is a mountainous area filled with trees and a lot of magic beast tier ranging to 1 - 6 and the village was settle in the valley enclose by garrison mountain ridge.
At every center or deep at garrion mountain ridge was an impassable tall mountain there is also two entrance in or out to the elriden village.
Arden city, who were the in the border has two way to get to the capital, either they go straight to the capital in a way passing the garrion mountain ridge or enter the elriden village by passing it's entrance in garrion mountain ridge but this option has risk, it's full of magic beasts.
After the ball that was as big as his fist on the consciousness world done forming.
He knew he has his first mana pool and can start to learn and use magic with it's element, in the depth of his consciousness there were small blue light appearing, there were also green light there.
the lights was just as a size of the marble ball, it moving out and in at the void of consciousness, he remembered at the meditation scripture that one need to form his own imaginary body in the consciousness to move or float around, the meditation technique that he did, did not came from planar war online but from murim world shanzen a vrmmo that has a martial arts genre, the technique needs deep focus since meditation and self reflection techniques are about the improvement of the connection of body and mind.
many murim world gamers tried the technique at other games, it was very effective at pulling mana in and increasing it just by sitting, this is also true for rankers mage who has almost can't level up anymore, but only a few people do it since it also a painful process specially when forming the virtual body it even disregard the pain setting of zero.
Mark focuses on forming it, blood faintly drip in is eyes and on his mouth, his head was cracking and the headache was very severe, although he felt his mind would break there wasn't any broken part of his skull nor his brain got injured, it sounds like a soul damage.
Good thing the damege it takes doesn't kills the user of the technique no matter how painful it is, edelina didn't notice it as she was continually sleeping besides him leaning on him, he didn't move a bit even being in pain.
His tenacity and will overpass the pain and his virtual body on his consciousness started to form slowly, though the body was created it was still transparent in a void a transparent glass floating at the void besides a empty container ball as the small balls of light was passing through in any direction at a slow speed, now he was in his virtual body like it was his soul though a colorless body without hair nor clothe, he felt like an air floating everywhere.
The next instruction on the scripture was trying to grab the light particles that was moving endlessly, the ball of lights what was actually the Body absorbs and dispelled from the surrounding, every person has a small range of absorption but they could increase their range by practicing reeling the light ball a lot.
Once the light ball enter the range of a person's domain, the virtual body would clearly see the ball floating and exiting again from the ranged, it needed to reel over to the mana pool to make it absorbed in the real body or the mana pool, the imaginary body must grab the light ball using his focus and will, the ball will resist and one needed a shear will to pull it in the mana pool, he then started to move his hand, he test his movement, he waved, jump to the space but he hit the green light with his head and his soul was definitely in pain but the pain gradually fades.
He then kicked the green light and it flew out in the void then he started grabbing the blue light to the mana pool he took great efforts at dragging it with him and took 10 minutes to make the blue light arrived at the mana pool but the small ball of a mana pool only a quarter has been added, a blue liquid was inside the mana pool.
It took him 5 blue light for him to get mentally exhausted and the small mana pool wasn't even halfway but it's near to reach half full, the efficiency of the mana sap was just for the increase of the catching rate of a ball of lights, the blue light was the moonforce and the green life was life energy.
Because it's night there were to light-red ball yet which is the redmoon force, the mages in galdia continent sometimes goes to the other people planes to used meditation techniques there every type of ball of energy that entered they're mana pool the moment the mana pool expand, they would also gain benefits like obtaining a new skill be it passive or active it is based on what energy in the mana pool surpasses the other like if the arch mage has 60% mana energy, a light blue ball of energy and 40% fire energy, the red ball of energy, the arch mage will get a huge of mana capacity on the other side the fire energy will get a small boost for flame spell either the cooldown or the flame damage, or a small boost of fire resistance.
He was mentally exhausted and made a decision to continue it tomorrow as soon as he was about to get back to his main body.
