Chapter 49: Why not use a proper weapon
Of course David was just kidding.
"Maybe my approach is wrong," David muttered, after trying for so long and not getting any results.
He decided to review his life from the point he started to cultivate and until today.
What he was most familiar with was Purple Thunder.
Even though his memory was a bit fuzzy, David still remembered one or two things about how lightning works but that was very bookish knowledge.
"In cumulonimbus clouds, water droplets and ice crystals collide, generating static electricity," David muttered what he still remembered in a low voice.
He felt nothing.
Knowing something is not understanding.
He needed to understand the very essence of thunder.
With these thoughts, David threw a couple of Enlightenment pills into his mouth and once again focused.
He activated the Purple Thunder technique to help him better visualize its nature.
In the next moment, his entire body was covered by purple thunder.
David started to think about what thunder really represented.
"Impermanence."
"Duality, capable of both creation and destruction."
"Uncontrollable, by its very nature thunder was unpredictable and uncontrollable." David muttered in a low voice with a flash of understanding in his eyes and then compared it with thunder wrapping around his body.
Due to David's control over mana that had unknowingly reached monstrous level. The purple thunder; which was supposed to be wild and domineering had turned into nothing more than David's little bitch, as it gently coiled around his body, afraid to harm him.
It was in a sense similar to David forcing the water to flow backwards in an extremely dominating fashion.
Although water could flow backwards, that's not what it was supposed to do.
His extremely high control was becoming a limitation, hindering its growth.
Realizing his mistake, David decided to loosen his control.
As soon as he did that, David felt a sense of Dejavu that he had never felt before.
He could feel the electricity coursing through his veins, attuning him to the rhythm of the storm. With each passing minute, he felt the thunder resonating with him, wanting him to become uncontrollable.
David could feel the headache reducing in real time. Finally finding a solution to his problem caused a small smile to slowly appear on his lips.
Inside David's Spiritual Space, a huge purple pillar started to take shape and slowly merged with his Spiritual Space, stabilizing it.
Thereby slowing down the speed at which cracks appeared.
David was given respite from his impending doom but the problem wasn't fully solved yet.
As he still couldn't access his Spiritual Space, he could only rely on the status report to understand changes in a better way.
[Name- David Well-wisher

Crystallisation of Life-

Remark- Finally, on the right path, there is still hope for you.]
David quickly read the report and finally sighed with relief when he saw the bank's remark.
But at the same time, one more question popped up in his head.
What was the significance of the Infant word behind his thunder law.
However, David wasn't in a rush to understand it.
He opened his eyes and instantly felt the changes around him, as if he was more in sync with the world.
David looked around to see what the trio was doing.
Ruby and Mary were doing their own things as usual and he wasn't able to find Sebastian.
He walked up to a table and sat down on one of the chairs.
"What a good day to be alive." David took a sip of his coffee while thinking.
At this time, David and the trio weren't the only ones resting on the lakefront.
David could see a few small tents being set up on the west side of the lake.
Meanwhile, Sebastian was hiding behind a huge boulder and looking at Allen with interest.
His Crystallization of Life, Darkheaven Transformation, didn't just allow him to transform basic things such as air and water, but it also allows him to change intangible things such as luck and destiny.
Sebastian Crystallization of Life had started to react when this young man had appeared. He was keeping his eyes on him ever since the boy had first appeared.
The youth's actions had piqued his interest.
Allen Rushmore was lost in his own world, he was completely unaware of Sebastian's presence.
"Face the sun, and secrets keep." Allen repeated those in his head, this could mean that the treasure was somewhere in the east.
"Where shadows fall, seek the deep."
The sun had started its journey downward and as a result huge shadow of the giant tree was casted on the lake water.
As time passed the puzzle was starting to make sense in Allen's head.
But he could not find thrice marked stones where the shadow ended.
"This is going to be very time consuming." Allen smiled at that thought.
It wasn't like he was afraid of challenges.
At this time Sebastian also disappeared.
"Ah! Sebastian, where were you? Let's have a little sparring session."
David said when he saw Sebastian coming back.Sparring was just an excuse, in reality, he wanted to learn some good techniques from him.
These people were really something after living with him for so long they still hadn't taught him any powerful technique, do they not want him to rise.
Sebastian readily agreed, he had no reason to deny an offer, he could learn even more about David's abilities.
'Manager, before we begin, let me ask you one question: which weapon are you going to use."
Sebastian was curious about David's weapon choice; he had never seen him use a weapon before, he wondered what was the reason behind it.
David was suddenly stumped by Sebastian's question, he had used a sword a couple of times before he started cultivating, but that was it.
But now that he thought about it, he really didn't feel the need to use weapons on an opponent, his chair and table were more than enough to deal with them.
On the second thought, there was no harm in using a proper weapon either.
