Chapter 345 Completing Semi-Shadow Zone
Within a week, the environment inside the cave had changed. Many different types of plants with Shadow Energy started to grow there. The beasts inside didn’t know what was happening, but they were happy to be able to absorb a larger amount of Shadow energy. Rishi absorbed a large amount of it inside his core.
He didn’t do anything for three days, then surveyed the area. Every Beast there knew that this human had done something to increase the Shadow energy. Rishi found some Beasts that were in the middle of evolution. He helped them by using his Shadow Energy and ‘Rune Crystal.’
It would be good for him if these Beasts became stronger. As more time passed, the Beasts became friendly to him. His charm’s effect increased the more time he spent with the beasts; slowly, they started to consider Rishi their friend. The effects were multiplied due to his higher Affinity for the shadow element.
He rechecked everything and made some adjustments before he looked for an open area. He then started to practice there. He was trying to create his semi-zone. He had read the book sent by his teacher, which contained many advanced effects that could be obtained by sacrificing his Zone size.
Rishi has been thinking about it for the past few days, and after careful consideration, he has decided to sacrifice 30% of his Zone size in exchange for two effects. The first was ‘confined space, which allowed him to seal anyone with him. This cost him 20% of his zone size; the other effect he chose was the ‘Lethal Atack’ effect.
Heavenly punishment was an effect that increased the damage of attacks. It worked best for multiple attacks. Rishi would use it with the third technique of his Chakram Art. This would one-shot any opponent.
After sacrificing 30% of his Zone size, his Zone was equal to the circular area around him with a six-meter radius. The cooldown of confined space was high, so Rishi changed it to mode 3. His Zone had now turned into a three-mode Zone.
First Mode: In the first Mode, he would turn into a shadow Bat and be able to move around with very high concealment and Crow Control immunity. He would have one skill in this Mode, making him ignore all damage for 2 seconds.๐๐๐ฑ๐๐๐ง๐ฎxt.๐ฐ๐ถ๐ช
Second Mode: In this Mode, a circular, ring-shaped Zone appears around him, separated into multiple blocks. He would be able to move to any of the blocks. He could also make his Chains appear out of any of these blocks. Any opponent inside the Zone would be marked, and Rishi’s attack would move toward the marked person.
A ‘silence’ effect would be applied to the Zone; It would not let any sound, light, or energy ripple.
ฦฅandasnovel.com The last effect was easy; he could move the Zone with him. (Example: He is in the center of a ring, and his opponent is in front of him. He could now move the corner of the zone; after appearing he could make the zone shift again with him as the center.)
Third Mode: It would seal the space around the end part of his Zone, and he would be able to use every effect of Mode 2. He would also get the Lethal Attack’ effect in this Mode, increasing his damage the more he attacked an opponent.
This was the final blueprint for his complete Zone. The last Mode was the most powerful. It could catch any opponent and make him unable to leave; this would make it impossible for any opponent to escape from him once caught. Assassins mostly used this type of effect to assassinate their targets, and Rishi felt like this would be an excellent match for him.
As he could not create the complete Zone, he needed to break down his Zone to semi-zone. He decided that he would first create only the first two modes. The last one was the toughest to create.
He started working in his Zone. First, he started to create the First Mode. It was not tough; He just needed to use his Spirit energy to make himself disappear. It was hard at first, but soon he could turn himself into the Shadow of a bat. He then started working on adding a concealment effect to it.
This took him a day, but at last he was able to do it. After that, he started working on movement speed and Crowd Control immunity buffs. After two more days, he was able to add all these, and the only thing left was the ‘Invincible’ effect that made him immune to all damage for two seconds.
He succeeded in creating the first Mode; the only thing left was to master it. It took him a week to master it, and after getting used to it, he decided to test it. He started running, and the next moment he disappeared; his body turned into the Shadow of a bat. The others could not see him.
He moved around in the cave; the sense of the Beast here was very sharp, but even they could not locate him. He surveyed the whole area before coming back. In this form, he was swift and was even able to pass through objects. He never added these things, but it looked like these were the additional perks he received.
After testing that it was working as intended, he started working in the second Mode. This took him way more time than he initially thought. After one complete week, he had finally created it.
He stood and stomped his feet on the ground. The next moment, a circular ring appeared around him. He then disappeared from his place. A block glowed, and he then appeared there. He then again dissapeared and appeared on the other side, and after doing it for some more time, he felt like his movement was not that fluid.
He decided to master it later, and he then added all the other effects to it. Including ‘silence’ and ‘Mark’, this took him an additional week. With this, his holidays were finished, but he applied for one month’s leave for seclusion training and decided to join after one more month.
Every second-year student was given one month’s leave when reaching breakthrough; most students used it wisely, but Rishi decided to use it now. He trained for days and days and improved rapidly. His Shadow Core also got stronger as it absorbed more Shadow Energy.
Rishi felt that it was nearing its breakthrough. He decided to ignore it and focus on mastering his Zone. The area had changed rapidly in the past few weeks. It was now filled with Shadow Energy. The Beasts here have all become stronger, and due to the concealment, the beasts outside were not able to sense anything.
The Beasts here left the cave to hunt at night. If any Beast accidentally came here, it was instantly eliminated by the Beasts here. Rishi had become so familiar with the Beasts here that he even played with the baby Beasts when he was not training. He had come with his rations prepared, due to which he didn’t need to leave the cave.
