I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 548 Inside My Shadow World

I sat down on my chariot, closed my eyes, regulated my breathings, and started my journey into my shadow world.

Once I entered there, I found many changes.

The world was before pitch black, expanding to a very far distance, looking like a real world and not just a simple shadow of mine.

In the base, there was that land looking part where that scary thing lay there. In the middle was my new dantian, with its grand structure that looked tiny and small from the general look.

But getting focused on it made it look like it was huge. I knew this was the wonder of my cultivation with the buildings and towers scattered across it.

That was all normal. What was new was that clump of energy that looked like it was moving all the time.

It was made out of threads, thin and thick, moving all the time like they were breathing. They moved slow at times, fast at times, giving me the feeling I was looking at a living being and not just a gathering of energy.

“This…” I slowly muttered while looking around this energy. It didn’t take a large place here, but when I concentrated, it gave me the same feeling as my cultivation base.

It was huge! Its threads looked like thick arms and pillars moving all over the place all the time. The centre of it didn’t look like other parts of it. It had some sort of a dense mass of black blue energy that looked in a semi-solid status.

But I didn’t see anything related to the massive ocean waves I sucked in. also there was no trace of any creature here.

What just happened?

I didn’t hurry to get near that clump of dark blue energy. I scanned the parts I could reach with my sight, feeling only void and darkness was there.

This world… It looked more mysterious than before in my eyes.

“Let’s see what this… Thing is!”

I now was more certain than before of the nature of this cluster of energy. It was the source of the black energy, the one I used before in my recent battles.

Was it the one that gave me energy to control and tame that monster? I recalled the itching wound at my back, the glove that covered my arm, and couldn’t help but feel more curious about this energy.

But how should I examine it?

I started to control the secondary dantian of mine here, moving its energy around its dense circuit of meridians.

Then I let a small thread move out from it, moving slowly towards this thing.

*Crunch!*

The sound that came from this energy was the sound of a mouth eating something. The thread of my energy was eaten away without leaving behind a trace.

Seeing this made me frown. This thing… Was it able to devour my energy? Damn fierce! Then…

“It must have devoured all the creatures and waters I brought over here,” I reached such a conclusion, especially when I sucked all of this using this cluster of energy’s help.

But how would I get connected to it without even getting eaten by it?

I stood there for a long time thinking of solutions. The energy here was controlled by me to some extent. Or else how did I borrow its help using my techniques?

“My techniques…” Suddenly my eyes flashed with a realisation when I recalled my techniques. I was able to borrow and slightly control this energy to some extent using my techniques.

Didn’t that mean the link between me and this energy was based upon techniques?

I was in my shadow world in spiritual form, not my real body. So I was unable to use my real blood to create a technique here.

I could create an imaginary form of blood, and that was, in fact, just spiritual energy, much denser than usual of course.

I didn’t hesitate then to summon my glaive here and injure myself. Then I started making the first technique.

My first technique was one that would allow me to attack and control other beings. But when my threads came out and tried to control this thing here, they got instantly devoured by that stupid clump of energy.

“Damn fierce!” I even felt severe pain in my heart when that thing devoured and crushed down my threads.

“One technique failed, then the other…”

I didn’t get only one technique after all. And one failure wouldn’t stop me from trying.

Next was my portal technique.

But when I formed it, the portal that appeared here created such a fierce tsunami of energy that poured from my real world to this one.

All the energy was gushed in and sucked dry by that thing. Its threads started to vibrate and move faster, shrinking and expanding like never before.

It looked more excited to devour this energy than mine. But would it be safer to do that? And how would that help in letting me get in touch with that energy?

I didn’t know… And I didn’t hurry to close that portal. I left it for more than an hour, while closely watching from the side the changes that happened there.

The portal used to appear before with thick tentacles. But these came from this clump of energy. This time I was doing the opposite, connecting this world with the outside real one.

So there were no tentacles, or to be more precise, the tentacles were devoured fast to not have the time to take shape.

This cluster of energy looked so damn hungry for energy, any form of energy. Of course my world’s energy was getting upgraded by the merging process of alien worlds.

And letting this thing keep absorbing it wouldn’t harm me in any way. But I wasn’t here to feed it. I was here to get to know more about it and try to control it as well.

So… My second technique failed… Should I try with my third and newest one then?
