Child of Destiny

Uno immediately noticed that someone had entered the room but did not stop what he was doing. He also did not need to guess who it was as he was quite familiar with the presence of this person.

The presence of this person even added to his confidence. At least he did not need to worry about himself when things went wrong. Accidents happened because no one had expected them to happen, so even Uno was not one hundred percent confident with this method since the variables that the Seed of Hatred possessed became more unpredictable to the recent incidents.

It would never hurt to be a little extra careful when it comes to these things.

As he focused himself on cultivating, Evangeline swiftly set up the Gathering Array that would support him. She wrote a series of runes in the air which engraved themselves on the floor, ceiling, and walls of the room.

These runes interlinked with one another, connecting themselves and creating a unique sequence that applied their abilities.

Not long after, the array was completed and started pulling all the energies filling the entire household. It did not even stop there as the array continued to pull more and even reached the entire lake and mountain where the Springfield Household was located.

The Gathering Array that she had set up with ease looked like a simple array due to how easily she had created it. But this very array was way more powerful than most of the renowned Mentalists out there. This array was even more powerful than what those people could find in the famous cultivation cave and meditation haven run by big organizations.

With the support of the Gathering Array, Uno was able to absorb more energy supplies that he needed to elevate the Sacred Qi to another level.

After cleansing his body with the Sacred Qi, he then adjusted the circulation technique that he was using as he focused more on gathering the Force of Nature that he absorbed toward the other portion of his dantian that the Sacred Qi occupied and where the Golden Core was located.

He barely needed to refine the Force of Nature that he was absorbing since the Gathering Array itself had already refined it for him. What he was absorbing right now was the purest energies that he could possibly get.

The more he absorbed the Force of Nature and gathered them in his dantian, the Sacred Qi was slowly becoming denser. Its color was even changing from silver-white to a purer white color.

At the same time, the Golden Core was spinning rapidly as it continuously absorbed the supply of Sacred Qi that it was getting. It was also changing alongside the Qi surrounding it.

The original smooth and spotless surface of the core was starting to gain some patterns. It was a similar process when the Springfield Family turned their Golden Core into a special variant unique to their family members, the Dragon Core.

But instead of scales like the Dragon Core of the Springfield Family, the patterns that Uno’s Golden Core looked like a series of ancient-looking runes. These runes filled the surface of the core while releasing a subtle glow of holiness.

It was a completely different aura compared to the Crimson Core situated at the other half of dantian that the Primal Demonic Energy had occupied.

This Crimson Core that Adam created previously when he was helping Shin stabilize his conflicting energies had naturally transformed itself when the Demonic Qi had transformed into the Primal Demonic Energy.

The sacred and holy aura that the Golden Core was starting to conflict with the evil and eerie aura that the Crimson Core was emitting, making the Primal Demonic Energy agitated once again.

This time, the Primal Demonic Energy was even more aggressive compared to earlier as it was now being supported by the Crimson Core.

This was the most crucial moment for Uno, so he could not afford to get interrupted by the other energy. He was in the middle of changing the properties of the Sacred Qi, so the consequence would be disastrous if it was tainted by the Primal Demonic Energy.

The Divinity Grade Mental Energy could help him buy some time, but it could not suppress the berserk Primal Demonic Energy since it did not have the full support of Shin’s Spirit Pagoda (Special Version of Niwan Palace due to the influence of the Four Symbol Scripture).

Evangeline also could not help at this moment even though she noticed the problem. It was because her direct involvement would also affect the transformation process of the Sacred Qi and the Golden Core.

Regardless, she still got ready, preparing to get involved once things got a little serious.

Even Uno could not help but frown slightly when he realized the problem. He somewhat anticipated that something like this would happen, but he was not expecting that the Primal Demonic Energy would be this powerful when it went berserk alongside the Crimson Core.

The combined powers of the two were more powerful than he had expected.

“It is impossible for me to miscalculate it, though?” mumbled Uno to himself as he was trying to find where it went wrong.

He had already considered all the possibilities and calculated that everything would be within control. He should have enough time to transform his Golden Core and elevate the Sacred Qi to another level even if the Primal Demonic Energy got out of control. freёwebnovel.com

Even if the influence of the Seed of Hatred had gotten stronger due to him being in control of the vessel for an extended period, its powers shouldn’t be this strong and linger around the range of his control.

It was at this moment when he suddenly thought of something. “Could it be!?”

He then started smiling bitterly and mumbled. ‘You, must have gained quite a lot of guts to dive deeper into that hole?’

A figure suddenly flashed before his eyes as he decided. ‘Since you are decisively trying to gain that power, then I will welcome your challenge.’

In response, Uno quickly released his hands and started making a few seals with them. Then he communicated with the Divinity Grade Mental Energy. ‘Hold it for three more minutes. That should be enough.’

At the same time, he said to Evangeline, who was observing the situation very closely. “I must trouble Madam to increase the efficiency of the Gathering Array to its fullest potential.”

Evangeline was slightly taken aback by his words and wanted to say something. She was worried that Shin and Uno’s body could not withstand such a powerful influx of energy. But she quickly stopped herself when she sensed an overwhelming confidence from Uno.

She did not know what just happened, but she suspected that it must be connected to Shin. With that, she quickly waved her hand, seemingly sending a command to the array to pull more energy.

With her permission, the Gathering Array seemed to have unlocked its limits and increased its suction force.

In response, the clouds above the Taal Lake gathered, covering the entire region in darkness. It was as if a huge storm was about to hit the area.

At the same time, the energies filling the atmosphere quickly gathered and headed toward the Springfield Household, particularly the room where the gathering array was located.

Due to the powerful suction force, the flow of energies could be seen by the naked eye as they moved toward the mansion of the Springfields.

With such a huge phenomenon, a lot of people noticed that something was happening in the Springfield Household. Explore more at empire

Those who were observing the family and monitoring their movements due to the recent incidents quickly reported to their higher-ups.

Nathan and Old Samuel also realized that the situation was getting more serious. The latter turned to his son, who nodded as he quickly understood his intention.

Nathan picked up his advanced watch, dialed the number of his confidant, and ordered. “Put the entire house into the highest level of security, seal all the entrances and exits of our territory, and prevent anyone from approaching.”

“Also, summoned the Golden Dragon Division and told them to be on standby,” he added after a brief hesitation.

The confidant on the other side of the line instantly understood that this must be an emergency, so he did not dare to dillydally and quickly responded. “Yes, Commander!”

Back inside the room, responding to Uno’s request, the Divinity Grade Mental Energy pulled more ‘supply’ from Shin’s Spirit Pagoda to suppress the Primal Demonic Energy as Uno absorbed more from the continuous wave of energies that the Gathering Array was collecting.

A normal person could easily get drowned with such a wave of energy, resembling a towering tsunami rather than a surging tidal wave.

But it was nothing to Uno, who was devouring everything easily like a bottomless pit and even refining all the energies within an instant with his special technique under the ‘Yin-Yang Cultivation Arts’.

With the rate at which he absorbed and refined the Force of Nature before turning them into his own Qi, the Sacred Qi, it did not take long before he gathered enough for what he needed.

Bang!

It did not take that long before he became successful, but even that was just the start of what was about to come next.
