Chapter 767 - Fusing the Energies
"Now, let"s start." As soon as Alex said it, the token released its Divine Energy.
Everyone in the room could sense two streams of energy. It wasn"t Alex"s control, but something different.
"Two Seniors left their last piece of their Divine Soul to activate these two Array Plates by using their Divine Energy stored inside. However, Senior Chavel is weakened, and I believe this will be the last time she could activate this power. That"s why you are going to work only with Senior Choong Duy, so you can only do it one at a time." Alex didn"t forget to instruct them with a thought transmission.
Even though they wanted to ask something, they decided to hold their curiosity since Alex shouldn"t be disturbed. It must take a lot of their attention to just speak to them like this. How could they ask their questions? Davi might even kill them on the spot if they ruined this fusion ritual.
Alex used his Spiritual Energy to guide the Divine Energy to enter the Array through a certain symbol and said, "Remember this symbol. This will be the place to enter the Divine Energy. If you let it enter another symbol, the Array itself might get ruined."
Before Davi and Jeanne realized it, the five elders seemed to have taken out their book and started writing. They even recorded Alex"s instruction word by word and didn"t forget to draw the symbol. With Alex"s back facing them, they could focus on the array instead of his face.
The Divine Energy then spread through the entire Array Plate, coating every symbol with golden color. Alex added, "This process will flow naturally. Just make sure it goes undisrupted and have the circle where these two sit to be the last one. Other than that, there is no order."
As soon as the Array became fully activated, Alex raised his hand. The Spiritual Energy and the Divine Energy flew upward and enveloped Rio"s and Rena"s Spiritual Energy.
"Follow me the movement of the Spiritual Energy closely," Alex warned not only the Array Masters but also Rio and Rena. "Move all of your Spiritual Energy wherever my Spiritual Energy goes."
Rio and Rena couldn"t reply at this moment because they would break the focus. Still, both of them were surprised when they felt this gentle warmth enveloping their body. It was as if someone pulled them into their embrace. However, Rio didn"t think it was disgusting. In fact, he couldn"t picture Alex hugging him since he lost his ability to think for the time being.
As for Rena, she simply enjoyed this warmth and focused on where the Spiritual Energy flowed.
Alex then moved it toward their right foot. The brother and sister released all their Spiritual Energy to that particular area.
"This is the first step. You need to fuse every bit of the energy from those residing in the Meridians, Blood Vessels, Tendons, Bones, Flesh, and Skin. You need to follow this order strictly." This time, Alex instructed with his thought transmission again. "Look closely."
Alex"s Spiritual Energy suddenly clenched their two energies and started compressing them to make them in the same place with the help of the array. This process was similar to force another type of gas to fill a single container.
After finis.h.i.+ng the merging of the energy inside the Meridians, he then did it several times until everything changed.
Suddenly, they felt something odd. A grey smoke leaked out of their feet.
"This is the impurity due to the clash of the energy inside their body. Although the quant.i.ty is low, you still need to expel it to perfection. Just like how Alchemist needs to purge the impurity to create a high purity if not perfect purity pill, this process needs the same care.
"After this, you use the array to st.i.tch both of these energies together, forcing them to fuse." Alex controlled the energy and trapped both energies inside the Divine Energy. Just like what he said, there was a little trace of the Divine Energy that forced them to stick together before they started mellowing a bit and fusing with each other.
Alex waited for a bit more before moving to the right leg. He repeated the same process, including the impurity and the st.i.tching processes. He was very patient for this to ensure the success of this process. Luckily, it didn"t require a huge amount of energy, so he was quite relaxed when doing it.
After the whole right leg finished, he moved to the left foot and left leg before going to the hands with the same order. Hand first before moving to the arm; Right first before going to the left.
Finis.h.i.+ng their four limbs, Alex"s energy headed toward the stomach and filled their entire torso area. There wasn"t any difference in the process in this area other than the impurities. It seemed this area had the most impurities since it was leaking five times the amount of all limbs combined.
This process alone took two hours to complete.
"I almost forgot to mention it to you, but make sure you don"t fuse the energy inside the organs because they are the last one, and you need to do it together." Alex gave his instruction while moving the energy toward their head.
Rio and Rena still responded very well. In fact, they enjoyed this feeling and wondered whether Alex was joking about the pain. There wasn"t anything uncomfortable in the process at all. Both of them even wanted to enjoy this feeling longer.
Alex didn"t care and continued, fusing the energy in their head. This time, they felt like someone ma.s.saging them there. It felt even more amazing.
"The next step is the most important step. Like all you know, organs are delicate and produce energy in our body, especially the heart, so if you fail to do the organs, it will limit or even ruin someone"s potential. Hence, I suggest you to not play around in this step. Since there is some time before the head is finished, you may ask a question. Each of you has one chance and do it one at a time starting from the left person."
The first one seemed to be one of the two females. She looked at the others to see their opinion since she was a bit scared to ask a question, lest she distracted him. However, the other guys nodded, including Davi, telling her that he would take responsibility for it.
She then nodded and asked. "Is there any side effect?"
"I don"t know if you can cla.s.sify this as a no, but there is certainly an after effect. Their cultivation base will decrease, considering I remove a portion of their energy in the form of impurities. Let"s take the girl as an example. She seems to be close to Martial Saint, so I think she will need another few months to years of cultivation to trigger her tribulation instead of a week.
"Of course, there is also benefit from this. Because of this, I don"t know whether to say this as a side effect or not. Considering the two energies have fused, she will gain more power despite her cultivation decreasing. And you will find her Spiritual Energy to burst out more vitality, especially in the Beast Blood Part.
"As you might already know, this technique will stimulate the beast blood by using the human blood. And it will only happen after finis.h.i.+ng the energy fusion, so you might want to wait there to see the effect. After all of this, you can consider whether this is a side effect or not."
They widened their eyes and got confused as well. Even Davi somehow felt it wasn"t a side effect. Instead, it was a blessing. The way Alex said it made him believe that they would have more room to grow.
"When will the pain start?" The second person asked.
"As soon as I start the fusion in their organs. It will last until the end. The pain will start like a tickle before increasing as time pa.s.ses."
"Is there any consequence if we fail the energy fusion?"
"You can"t try again on the same person. Well, this part is simple. As long as you have enough control of the array and your Spiritual Energy, you should be able to handle it well. The real challenge will be when doing the organ and stimulating the blood since the energy will start rampaging. Just watch it later."
"Then how about consequences in the stimulating process or the organs? Will they have an internal injury, or will we have one?"
"From what I understand, there is one when you are stimulating the blood. There is a chance of an internal injury, but it shouldn"t be that much. They should be able to recover in a month. As for the fusion process, the array has some safety measures. It will simply turn off and cancel the whole situation. Since you are going to repeat from the feet, you can"t try it again, as I said earlier."
The fifth one took a few seconds to think about his question. "Will we need extra treatment after this? We, as in, us. Three of us here were born in this family, so we have the same bloodline as them. That"s why I don"t know whether we are qualified to treat them. As for the other two, they are fully human recruited by the family."
"No. The Array itself will handle the separating process of your Spiritual Energy. Hence, you might need more energy than usual, but it shouldn"t take too much energy. I only need around ten to twenty percent of my Spiritual Energy. As for you… Might be twenty to thirty percent."
"Thank you." The Array Masters then thanked him simultaneously.
Davi, who was listening to their conversation from the start, couldn"t help but smile. It seemed he struck gold by letting Alexander Sirius go inside the array. Even though he was a bit disappointed since Rio couldn"t get the energy inside the Special Realm, he and the family got even far more than that.
Alex kept utilizing the array for another ten minutes before his eyes flashed. "Get ready for the pain!"
Rio and Rena quickly clenched their hands, preparing for the pain. The Spiritual Energy flowed toward all their organs from top to bottom.
They had no choice other than separating all their energy to those organs with the same amount.
Alex clasped his hand and controlled the Spiritual Energy to fuse the different areas. There were seventy-nine organs in a human body, and Alex did it at once. This would require a huge amount of concentration.
He even forgot to instruct them. Luckily, they could respond after feeling him spreading his energy to those organs with the same amount.
Rio was startled by the tickle all over his body, creating wonder in his head. He had prepared for the pain, and yet he got a tickle like this. He felt Alex played him. However, he realized that the tickle seemed to change and gradually increase its intensity, shutting that thought deep inside his mind.
Rena, on the other hand, wanted to move her body, especially around her heart and lung. She wanted to touch her b.r.e.a.s.ts because she felt something odd. Unfortunately, she could only endure this at the moment and bit her lips.
The moment the pain came, Rena didn"t know whether to feel relieved or not. On one hand, she was happy that she didn"t need to scratch that area to lessen it. On the other hand, the pain seemed to be harder to endure.
Alex didn"t say anything and focused on his task.
The Array Masters were astonished upon Alex"s control. No wonder the ancestors asked him to perform it for the first time. They felt confident to handle one person, but the most they could do was around one hundred organs. It was far behind Alex"s control of energy.
At the same time, they admired how Alex did everything perfectly. If they knew Alex only practiced the technique for a day, they might bang their head to the wall.
Suddenly, both Rio and Rena screamed at the top of their lungs.
"Aahhh!"
