Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 1054 Clock

It was certainly an amazing and terrifying spectacle for Klea to see Emery able to last that long against one of the strongest magus.

The fight, from start to finish, could only be described as savage and barbaric.

In his wolf form, Emery, who had lost control thanks to the bloodthirsty urge that took over, charged at Magus Shena with monstrous power. Taking advantage of his [Undecaying Body] which kept healing his wounds, the wolf basically threw caution into the air and just continued attacking the female magus despite the futility of such actions.

After more than two hours of fighting, hundreds of cuts, and bruises, finally, the Night Wolf no longer had the capability to stand up. kneeling on the ground shattered by their battle, Emery's body slowly regressed to its human form before taking a sit-in lotus position.

Seeing that, Klea quickly ordered her thunderbird to descend. She was about to approach Emery to check his condition when the magus stopped her from doing so.

"Don't worry about him. He's fine, just exhausted. But just in case, keep your distance from him for a while."

Klea had only been paying attention to Emery throughout the fight since she was very worried about him. Hence, it was only now when they were close that she realized that the Full Moon mage was actually panting heavily, tired from the battle.

Noticing Klea's eyes on her, Magus Shena smirked and decided to tease the little girl.

"Pretty interesting boy you have there!" She said with a knowing smile and one eyebrow raised.

Seeing the girl's cheek blush slightly, the female magus laughed boisterously.

Magus Shena then reverted to her human form and decided to stay with Klea, watching over the young wolf, as she was worried that the boy would go on another rampage when he woke up. It shouldn't be, but there was no harm in being too careful.

Emery, despite losing control of his body, was aware who his urge was fighting against. Just like last time, he could remember everything he did.

It was definitely a powerful transformation. Unfortunately, the ability the Beast form showed was all intuitive and he has no control off. He wasn't sure he could repeat what he did consciously.

But then thinking about how he almost hurt Klea just now, he would rather not use it at all until he can control it.

Now that his body had calmed down, Emery once again focused his concentration on his two cores and the new grayish devour pillar.

There was certainly an interconnection between his devour pillar and his bloodline and as he finally calmed down, the previously dark core that had been beating like crazy has slowly returned to normal.

At that moment, Emery noticed that his nature core was actively supporting the dark core and the harmonious process lasted for around one hour before Emery could finally feel that the newly formed Devour pillar was affecting the entire Darkness Foundation.

His previously pitch-black foundation turned slightly grayish as there was a synergy between his devour pillar and Khaos energy that has been dominating the dark core. Fortunately, both were complimenting each other, a matching pair.

Before long Emery felt a surge of power circulating within. Another tendril-like flare was formed on top of the Darkness Foundation – another darkness pillar.

[Eleventh pillar was formed - Darkness]

Emery felt the devour pillar has helped increase his dark core to another level.

Now that Emery's dark core had undergone a huge boost, the state of equilibrium it had with the nature core was, once again, on the verge of collapse. Therefore, just as before, Emery swiftly willed for his Dao Divine Technique and with its help, directed the excess flow of spirit energy into his nature core in order to fulfill the energy needed to form the subsequent Nature pillar.

When the excess spirit energy flowed into his Nature Foundation, the element that was on the top among the others – which was the Plant element – swiftly reacted. Hence a few minutes later, another tendril-like energy emerged from the nature core and established itself on the foundation.

[Twelfth pilar was formed - Plant Element]

[Spirit force has increased exponentially]

[Spirit force: 1610]

[Acolyte Rank 9 - Mid Stage - 12 pillars formed]

[Earth Spirit - 2 pillars]

[Plant Spirit - 2 pillars]

[Water Spirit - 1 pillar]

[Light Spirit - 1 pillar]

[Darkness spirit - 5 pillars]

[Devour spirit - 1 pillar]

With this upgrade, Emery realized that he had successfully reached the peak of rank 9 mid-stage, one more stop to advance into the high stage.

When all the excess spirit energy had finally been absorbed, the two cores once again formed perfect balance with each other. The circulation between the two spirit cores he had had never been as efficient as it was now, and Emery had never felt better about his dark core. However, he couldn't really say the same with the blood circulation within his body.

The last transformation seemed to have created an incident, especially within his heart – the tool of which pumps blood throughout his body. Emery opened his eyes, stood up, and tried to stretch his body to relieve the odd sensation. However, the feeling was still there.

Unfortunately, Emery had no further chance to find out what was wrong, as Klea had jumped at him. He quickly caught her body and seeing her worried look, quickly said,

"I'm sorry. I almost hurt you."

Klea shook her head and didn't say anything, only her hands that wrapped around his waist drew tighter. It was at this moment that Magus Shena walked over to the two and spoke something that caught Emery's attention.

"I can sense changes in your heart rhythm.."

Seeing that the female magus seemed to know more, Emery attentively listened as she told him about the urge that many savage-ish bloodlines possessed.

"Think of it as a clock. At your current level, you need to let go of your urge maybe once a month lest you lose control. However, as you grow stronger, it will also grow with you. There will be times where it will be days before the bloodlust dissipates, only a few could actually control it"

Hearing such words, Emery heaved a long sigh. The things Magus Shena told him now matched with what Magus Heorgar had told him, and hearing this unexpected information, Klea grasped his arm even tighter.

"Don't worry, Emery. I know you will eventually control it."

Gently squeezing her hand, Emery smiled saying, "Thank you, Klea."

Thinking about ways, Emery suddenly remembered about his harvesting job. It had been more than two weeks since the dwarf master gave him the task and hope he wasn't too late.
