Chapter 53 : Creating A Inner World ( part 1 )

[ COMBAT SERIES : DARK MAGIC ]

[ DESCRIPTION : ABLE TO LEARN ALL DARK MAGIC SPELLS 30% FASTER. ALL HOLY MAGIC SPELLS STRENGTH IS INCREASED BY 10%, REQUIRED MANA TO ACTIVATE SPELL DECREASE BY 10% ]

'It's basically the same as the description for Holy Magic.' Wang Qian thought. Right now, he and Bai Lian are still at the cave, guarding the miners from the monsters. Since he had nothing to do, he decided to read the description of Dark Magic.

'Since I've already got the two magics, I guess it's time for me to learn some other spells. I should go and read the texts with Bai Lian after we finished this mission.'

"Bai Lian, have you thought of where to start after we finished this mission? We can't just walk around blindly while searching for food, can we?" He asked Bai Lian.

"I don't know, papa. I never see any food stalls when we came in." Bai Lian replied.

"If you're looking for delicacies, then I recommend you our city's night market. Most food stalls are there and they're open until late night. It's near the adventurers guild" The leader of the miners said.

"Does it have sweets or desserts?" Bai Lian asked with her head tilted.

"It does, little girl. The stalls over there starts selling at the evening. You guys can have dinner over there if you guys want."

"I see. Thanks for the information uncle."

"It's okay."

After a few more hours, the miners finished their work as they went back to the guild. Since this was a quest that guards others, it required the miners to give a review of Wang Qian's and Bai Lian's attitude and how did they do. The miners gave the two a good review as the staff gave them the rewards. 

It was still afternoon when they came back, so Wang Qian and Bai Lian decided to eat in their room. They cooked a chicken again. But this time, they used their flames together to cook one chicken. The product turn into the mixed effects of the two chickens cooked by them before, making people lose consciousness as they saw a full moon for a second and come back to reality.

Wang Qian brought it to the table as they sat down and took a small piece. He placed it in the mouth first to try it. The next second, his view turned into the world where everything was destroyed. What was different this time, was that there is now a big full moon hanging on the sky, illuminating the bodies that were clad in armor. Just as Wang Qian wanted to look at them, his view turned back to normal as he felt that his constitution awakened a little again, around 1%. He then nodded to Bai Lian, signaling to her that she can have a try.

After Bai Lian put it in her mouth, her mana capacity seemed to increase again. Not only that, her constitution seems to be affected. Wang Qian used [ Appraisal ] on her and was shocked by how much her status increased.

[ TALENT IN MAGIC : S ]

[ TALENT IN MARTIAL ARTS : C ]

[ CONSTITUTION : QUEEN OF THE NIGHT ( UNIQUE ) ( EVOLVING ) ]

[ OVERALL COMBAT ABILITY : 90000 ]

[ STATE : HEALTHY ]

'90000?! That's about half of my status. Moreover what does the "evolving" part at the constitution bar about?' Wang Qian thought as he looked at her. Seeing that he was looking at her with his mouth slightly opened, Bai Lian tilted her head as she asked

"What is it, papa?"

"Cough~ Cough~, nothing, I'm just shocked by how much your strength increased. Let's continue to eat." Wang Qian coughed as he explained. They then turned back as they continue to eat. After finishing the chicken, Wang Qian laid back as he placed his hand on his stomach. It was then that the system sent him a message.

[ HOST CONSTITUTION HAS AWAKENED BY 10%. CURRENT AWAKENED PERCENTAGE : 50% ]

[ HOST HAS HIT THE LIMIT FOR AWAKENING ]

[ TO INCREASE THE AWAKENED PERCENTAGE, HOST NEEDS TO CREATE AN INNER WORLD TO SHOULDER THE BURDEN. ]

[ CREATING A SIDE QUEST FOR THE HOST.. ]

[ SIDE QUEST CREATED ]

[ SIDE QUEST 2 : CREATING AN INNER WORLD ]

[ DESCRIPTION : THE HOST HAS REACHED HIS CURRENT LIMIT AND CANNOT AWAKENED HIS CONSTITUTION ANYMORE. TO INCREASE THE LIMIT, THE HOST NEEDS TO CREATE AN INNER WORLD AND USE IT AS HIS MANA STORAGE WHILE THE BODY SHOULDER ALL THE STRENGTH STATS. ]

[ TARGET : CREATE AN INNER WORLD ]

[ DEADLINE : NONE ]

[ QUEST REWARDS : INCREASED LIMIT FOR AWAKENING, 30 COINS ]

'What the heck is this? Creating an inner world? How am I even supposed to do that?' Wang Qian exclaimed in his mind as he read the contents. 

"System, how do I create an inner world?" he asked.

[ REPLYING TO THE HOST : THE HOST NEEDS TO CIRCULATE HIS MANA IN HIS BODY AND INCREASE THE DENSITY OF MANA AT A CERTAIN POINT WHILE LOWERING THE DENSITY OF MANA AT OTHER POINTS. THE RECOMMEND POINT IN THE BODY ARE THE BRAIN AND HEART. ]

'Wow, that's definitely very easy. Totally not so hard till the point it makes no sense.' Wang Qian was being sarcastic in his head. Despite so, he planned to do as it says. He turned towards Bai Lian as he said.

"Bai Lian, I'll need to meditate right now, but you can just call me up when it's nighttime already. I'll bring you out to the night market once I get up."

"Okay papa."

Wang Qian then closed his eyes after hearing Bai Lian's reply. He then circulated his mana and concentrated it at his heart, the mana started flowing in and out through his heart, speeding his heart beat. He then attempt to increase the density of the mana in his heart and lowered the density of other parts of his body. 

But even after multiple tries, he still couldn't do it. He then slowed down the flow of his mana as he decided to start over. He circulated the mana and directed it towards his heart. As the mana left his heart, he tried to slow the speed of it moving out and spreading towards his body. This time, he managed to create an imbalance density of mana in his body. 

He then continued this process as more mana came inside his body through the auto-absorbing function he gotten after increasing his constitution to 40% awakened. The amount of mana was supposed to increase, but Wang Qian's control of the flow of mana made it that most of the mana stayed at his heart.

Soon, the density of mana in his heart became very high. Wang Qian then put more attention in controlling the flow of mana in his body. But what he didn't know, was that small crack that was wiggling started to appear in his heart before disappearing again...
