'Finally!'

[ 'Myriad Dragon Cells' (Unique**)

Description: An elemental control technique set of dragon heritage origins combined with the remains of a foreign race! (created by none other than the greatest 'Knowledge Processing Center'!)

'Fire Dragon' - Initiated, 0th level control (68%)

'Lightning Dragon' - Initiated, 0th level control (0%) ]

It was only ten days later when I managed to finish carving the flow channel of my Lightning Cell…

While I did know that 'Myriad Dragon Cells' was quite a complicated technique that required a lot of both precision and time when it came to flow channel carving, I expected it would take at most half the amount I spent doing it, but it seemed like I was simply underestimating it.

Although I only used flow channel carving for 3 hours a day, it was much more than a simple '3 hours' in essence. After all, at the end of each carving session, my mental energy would be quite exhausted and would require over 20 hours to recover normally, so I essentially poured in 10 days' worth of mental energy into this task.

Of course, it would have taken much less if I invested more time a day while using 'Mental Energy Recovery' potions, but I preferred to keep them in the case of an emergency since I wasn't leaving this place any time soon and thus had plenty of time to use…

'That being said, this space is completely different.'

Having spent half of the ten days running around it at two times the speed of sound, my personal understanding of the real 'Corruption Space' had reached a considerable level.

Though both the real one and the one in the eroding illusion shared the same depressing color, they looked nothing like each other!

At first, it didn't seem to be that much different as my starting point looked quite similar to the corridor in my illusion except that it was more natural like an internal cave. However, as soon as I made my way out of the narrow road after the first day, it completely changed!

It looked more like a great cavity that was naturally made underground as rocky structures were the only 'buildings' in it, with many irregular openings and caves around which made it look like a semi-labyrinth…

Thankfully, I had my old 'Mental Map' skill to help, which made my mission of sweeping through the whole space much easier, otherwise, it might take me double the amount of time to finish searching a single 'part' of the Corruption Space.

'That's enough pondering for today…'

Having lied back on the bed for a few minutes as a reward for myself managing to finish the first naturally carved elemental flow channel, and ruminated a bit, I once again got up as I stored my bed away before summoning 'Lightning Cloud'.

"Alright Long, time for today's training."

While I actually wanted to spend the next 2 hours of my new daily routine practicing Elemental Control using the Lightning element which I initialized just now, I could only keep it as a thought and not put it into practice due to the circumstances of this space which wasn't as practical as the system space...

[Hah… What weapon are you using today?]

Not to mention the fact that there was the danger of the structures around or even certain narrow paths collapsing, the major problem was that this space was completely void of the various elements that I could sense, which meant that I would have to rely on my natural elemental recovery or potions if I went all out during my practice.

Naturally, as I didn't want to waste a great part of my time clearing paths that collapsed due to my training, and wanted to keep my elemental 'battery' full especially in this space that even slowed down self-recovery a great notch, I could only schedule such training for a later time in a different place.

"The sword, of course. You should have already memorized the order by now, can you not be lazy when it comes to simple stuff like that?"

As such, I decided to make use of the time practicing my various weapon arts, which was both more practical to do in this place and also high up on my priority list being at the same level as Elemental Control training. With that thought in mind, I decided to make use of Long's 'Illusion' to help me in practice

[Whatever, let's get this over with…]

After complaining, Long, who was now lying on the ground since the bed was removed, floated up before a perfect mirror image of me appeared.

"Just get ready."

Holding my sword, I started by using 'Lightning Swordsmanship' as I slashed as 'Ian Long' while keeping its power to a minimum, but the slash didn't manage to land a hit as it was already caught by the illusion of 'Lightning Cloud'.

Obviously, both 'Ian Long' and Lightning Cloud's illusion weren't corporeal, but I moved my sword in a way as if they were real, which was quite similar to the common method of Shadow Boxing, except that I didn't have to imagine anything other the impact since 'Ian Long' visually existed.

The reason that I chose to use such a method was simple, as my companion AI, Long automatically had full knowledge of abilities that have been created and enhanced with the system's assistance, making him a perfect practice partner that not only showed me my flaws but could also keep up with me on the same level!

Naturally, I also had to minimize the amount of elements and essence that I used in order not to run into the same obstacle that I had when it came to training elemental control, but that actually had a positive effect instead, especially since my goal was to try and breakthrough at least one weapon ability into the advanced level as it allowed me to further eliminate the flaws that would usually be ignored due to the overall might of the technique when input wasn't minimized.

As such, I could tell that I was growing closer and closer to my target as time went by, I believed I should at least reach it by the time I left this place!

'I should probably revise my schedule slightly starting tomorrow…'
