Chapter 349 - 349 321 - Elan's Spirit Energy Potential 23

349: Chapter 321 – Elan’s Spirit Energy Potential (2/3) 349: Chapter 321 – Elan’s Spirit Energy Potential (2/3) Ian’s initial plan had been sound—after the adventure in the Southern Sea Ruins, no matter the outcome, he would demand the ‘Fairy Heritage’ from the Ellen Family as his reward.

This would not only grant him a recognized Fairy Bloodline inheritance, powerful and with great potential, but also provide him additional fairy materials to prepare for the Second Energy Level and future Sublimation Organs.

Then, following Elder Prude’s and Viscount Grant’s line of thought, he would likely be recommended for knighthood, becoming a bona fide ‘Knight,’ and then he could embark on his own journey to seek further resources and broaden his experience.

During his travels, Ian intended to construct his fourth Sublimation Organ, followed by advancing to the Second Energy Level.

He had already amassed enough Origin Quality, and even now, as long as the Magic Potion was in place, he could break through immediately; he had been prepared for some time.

However, due to the final gift from the Aether Crystal Dragon, his plans had been disrupted.

“Although it is a good thing, once my plans are disrupted, many things must be recalculated.”

Frowning in thought, Ian gazed at his left arm in the mirror, “In theory, only at the Third Energy Level ‘Lord of Stone,’ would I be able to absorb Morien Steel and mold it into my own flesh and bones.

On this foundation, I would forge the Spiritual Neural Network, then merge body and soul to manifest the ‘Heartlight Body’.”

But now, most of the Morien Steel had become a vessel for the Spark Furnace Core.

It had not shaped a neural network but had become a conduit for Origin Quality transmission.

At present, Ian’s left arm could be considered a high-level Inscription weapon; he could even inscribe various Inscription arrays on it, turning it into an Inscription Base for a multitude of purposes.

From communication to controlling water pressure and flow, from purifying his body to automatic cultivation, this left arm’s potential and effects were so numerous that the young man fell into deep contemplation for a moment.

“It probably doesn’t count.

The fourth Sublimation Organ must be something I can fully control.

Both my left arm and the Heart Core are currently incomplete structures, incapable of pushing my limits.”

After some thought, Ian named the Sublimation Organ hidden in his left arm the ‘Aether Crystal,’ and like the Ancient Dragon Heart Core, he considered it a ‘High-level Sublimation Organ’ that he had obtained by accident, surmounting what his current level should possess.

Apart from providing unrivaled strength now, this high-level Sublimation Organ could save Ian a collection of Magic Potion materials when advancing to the Third and Fifth Energy Levels in the future, saving time.

Plus, the progression tree of the Aether Crystal was complete.

By continuously perfecting it, it would suffice as a Fifth Energy Level Sublimation Organ.

With the addition of the Ancient Dragon Heart Core, Ian’s Fifth Energy Level Magic Potion would likely only require collecting two sets of materials before he could advance directly and attempt the integration of the ‘Domain of Extremes.’

“The pace has been accelerated again.

Although not now, with my current strength, I need not fear any ordinary Second Energy Level.

Only those like Viscount Grant and the Bishop of White Mist, or other powerhouses wielding Armored Aether Arms, should I avoid.”

He nodded slightly, then turned to get dressed.

Ian was already pondering whether to get some earth attribute materials and Second Energy Level Fairy Heritage from Master Gossay and Yisen Gard.

After all, despite various unexpected occurrences, they had completed the task and obtained two Crystal Dragon Eggs with Ian’s aid.

Not to mention, it wouldn’t be excessive for him to ask for some reward.

Upon leaving the bathroom, Ian had already smelled the aroma of food—Elder Prude had clearly pre-ordered many dishes, waiting for him to return and enjoy the fresh, hot meal.

But before he could feel touched, Ian, who was tying his hair, noticed that his younger brother Elan happened to be waiting at the bathroom door.

“What is it?”

He reached out, somewhat puzzled, and ruffled his brother’s hair, “Were you waiting for me outside?

There’s no need, go have your meal.”

“I wasn’t waiting.” But Elan revealed a smile, gently saying, “I know, brother, your condition.”

“I know you would come out now.”

Ian was slightly taken aback, then he noticed Elder Prude appearing by the door.

A premonition arose in the young man’s heart.

“Yes, he knows.”

The old man nodded calmly, his expression an enigmatic mix of joy, pride, and worry.

Complex emotions intertwined within the wrinkles of his face, eventually cementing into a faint smile, “I originally thought Elan would be more anxious about your safety.

After all, you disappeared in the storm, were caught in the Labyrinth, and there were three days with no news.”

“When I went to pick him up, I found this child behaving very well, staying at the door with Scott, telling me not only did Elan not cry but he even diligently recited the reading assignments you had set for him.”

“When I told him not to worry about you, and that I would look after him for a few days, this child instead comforted me, saying you were very safe right now… even very happy, with tremendous joy,” said Elder Prude, turning his head to look deeply at Elan, then facing Ian, “Ian.”

“I suspect Elan may also have a certain Spirit Energy talent.”

The old man’s tone was solemn, “He doesn’t just believe in you, he can truly sense your situation!”

Ian stood there stunned, even forgetting to continue tying his hair, letting his white locks spread out.

“…Elan?”

After a while, he crouched down, looking earnestly at his younger brother, “Can you really sense it?”

“Yes.”

The boy nodded without hesitation, “At first, it was pleasant, carefree, like eating the promised, sweet stew.”

“Then, big brother was angry, like encountering a fool.”

“In between, it was complex, happy, and yet astonished.”

“In the end, big brother’s heart was full of regret, yet, filled with determination.”

“I can know, it’s like, big brother, is right before my eyes.”

Describing emotions is the most complicated matter, sometimes even adults find it difficult to accurately describe their feelings, but Elan was deftly using various descriptions and comparisons, detailing Ian’s excitement when he first explored the ruins, the anger after learning about the Fiery Flame Land’s special forces ‘destroy if cannot have’ directive, and the mood when facing the mother nest at the end.

This was real, genuinely real.

[Elan]

[Incapable Level·Juvenile Form·Waiting·Innate Intelligent Organism·Main intelligent organism in Starfield·Spirit Energy Potential awaiting awakening]

[This human individual possesses latent spirit energy talents, but this talent is still dormant.

[…]

With silver-green halos flowing in his eyes, Ian softly said, “Spirit Energy Potential…”

“Elan…” He wanted to say something for a moment, but in the end, he didn’t know what to say.

The awakening of a Spirit Energy User is always accompanied by intense emotional fluctuations.

Although Elan has not awakened yet, what kind of concern must he have to slightly sense one’s own feelings?

I myself…

maybe I have indeed made my family worry too much.

So, at this moment, with both joy and concern, the youth asked, “How did you feel when you sensed my emotions?

Did you feel uncomfortable, or did your head hurt a lot?”

“Me?

I wanted to know.”

Blinking, Elan seemed somewhat puzzled by the question.

He thought hard for a moment, then found the right words.

The boy’s smile was clear, “It’s like, wanting to know, just like uncle.”

“Big brother, I want to know, when can you come back.”

“That’s what I thought, and then…”

“I knew.”
