Everything will be my way!

Chapter 93

Kyon went on to analyze the element of earth.

The element of earth can manipulate any solid materials, to a lesser extent, the malleable ones and to a greater extent, the hard ones.

For example, it takes 33% of the earth, the air, and the water to manipulate marshmallow effectively. Likewise, the efficiency is distributed in any substance that consists of different proportions of gas, water, and solid matter.

The earth element is most effective in solids with a pronounced molecular lattice. Kyon started to manipulate his bones at once. It was an immediate success.

While he was fighting with a shadow, Kyon realized that he had added another battle fist to his inborn ten. Taking into account the water and the wind elements, his skills were equal to 13 combat fists. His movements had become so unpredictable, they could confuse any opponent. It was the quality of energy Kyon was eager to get. {Outstanding…}

During the experiments, he found out that he could create and concentrate the element into solid minerals, or rather, a handful of earth.

He scanned it with Synergy and saw no end of various solid chemical elements, including gold and platinum. However, but the more massive the element was, the more complex structure it had, the less amount of it could be created.

{Holy cow! I need to finish the books in the library! Is it possible to produce solid minerals out of nothing?! If some talented bender of the earth starts creating refined pieces of gold, the recovery of precious metals from mines will get absolutely useless!}

Kyon concentrated a certain amount of pure energy and the element of earth in his hand and set the parameters for the outgoing energy. It transformed into a solid piece of granite with an irregular semicircular shape. It was integral, with no impurities.

It takes an ordinary person a couple of months to learn the technique of creating granite. After that, they can create the whole cliffs, as many as they can.

A crazy smile appeared on the creator’s face.

In his previous world, it took a huge amount of energy and ultra-high technology to create matter. But in this world, the creation required little mental or physical effort. Kyon could change the shape of the channel to set the parameters of the molecular lattice of atoms for the outcoming energy so that it could take a physical form and become a certain material, a solid element.

The energy of the earth element can’t choose what to create. It fills the given lattice like water fills the tank, and creates the item. If the lattice is wrong (more precisely, if the element doesn’t exist or is too complicated for the practitioner) the result will be ordinary earth, sand, or dust.

It’s difficult to be a bender of earth. They need to study the molecular lattice to create solid matter. If they want to create granite, they need to know its molecular lattice thoroughly. Only then can they create and use it for their purposes.

Chemistry, as a science, does not exist in this world. When they create solid matter, they use inherited knowledge attained through practice. If someone “accidentally” recreates the molecular lattice of a diamond, they will be considered a rare talent and accepted in any family right away. There’s a belief that gifted (lucky) people are chosen by heaven to grant the world the technique of creating precious stones.

For example, the dwarves own the secret knowledge of creating some metals. As a result, the short people don’t have to buy or produce them. Thanks to this (one of many) feature, the dwarves had achieved authority and greatness among people.

Top jewelers of large guilds own the necessary technology and can create precious stones of the highest standard out of the earth element.

However, no one has ever succeeded in mastering the art of creating gold, platinum, or diamond…

Kyon would laugh if he read about it. His great knowledge was enough to bring any earthbender to their knees… Each of them would beg him to pass on his wisdom in the nephrite so that they could master the valuable skills.

With his knowledge of all available chemical elements and their properties, Kyon could create anything (solid). He knew at once what substance he was dealing with. Synergy obligingly helped him with the analysis.

Kyon managed to create some rare rocks, precious crystals, and metals on the first try. Even the most talented person would take years of practice before they learned how to create them.

All of his creations fell from his hands to the ground like from the cornucopia. For Kyon, it was putting theory to practice and a fun game, but for the rest, every element he created was a new technique that should be examined closely.

Kyon hadn’t discovered all the nuances so far. He frowned when he faced a number of creation restrictions. First, he couldn’t create toxic, alkaline, or chemically active matter. Second, he failed to make anything difficult, like the carbon structure of diamonds or precious stones, and those he could create were of low strength and cheap. He could not create many crystals, rocks, and the middle and higher mass elements, either. At present, he could make only simple elements and substances of low mass.

Kyon decided that he lacked the necessary grade of the element. {What can the practitioners with the highest (3) grade of the earth element do then? Can they create a bar of platinum just so? Wow… I want to create refined gems!} – His eyes sparkled with indomitable enthusiasm. Kyon lived to play the game of life.

Time inexorably moved forward.

Kyon found out he could control and compress the rocks with the earth element. He could also bend and break metal. All he needed was to infuse the solid matter with his energy of the earth element.

The earth element has little combat potential. In fact, it’s a long and costly process to create stones from energy. Any earth attacks are fairly predictable and it takes time to prepare them. It’s easy to dodge from a flying boulder or direct it in another direction. Especially if your development is superior to the enemy. However, Kyon’s high self-esteem would never let him fight with peers, it was too low for him.

He could use the earth element to create sharp weapons, throwing knives and hail of stones. The rain of fireballs would be more effective, though. The element had great protective potential, though. When Kyon achieved the superior grade he would be able to make complex and durable rocks and even carbon skin.

With the help of the earth element, he could build a stone wall, cover his skin with hard rock, create a strong shield… After he had created a variety of things, Kyon managed to make something unique and extra strong, adamantium.

This rock has outstanding properties: high impact resistance, strength, density and heat resistance, as well as a relatively low mass. Consequently, its creation requires only little energy.

Adamantium is a super-strong stone with a glossy greenish tint.

For the sake of the experiment, Kyon threw a weighty stone and immediately teleported it back. Everything happened in a split second. He was testing the effectiveness of the protection against sudden attacks.

The stone changed its direction and flew back.

Kyon put out his hand for protection. A thin layer of adamantium had grown on its surface.

*bam*

The stone ricocheted from his wrist and flew away. There was no visible damage on the smooth green surface of the “armor.”

A happy smile lit up Kyon’s face. The rock, invented by scientists, had proved its worth. From now on, he was going to use the earth element for protection, creating adamantium. Besides, he would use the elements of wind, water, and earth to balance his body during the battle, which was equivalent to adding three battle fists to his movements. Also, the young talent hoped to use water + ether against his enemies to create a powerful discharge.

When he completed the energy recovery cycle, Kyon experienced yet again something indescribable: he’d moved to the fifth stage of the base phase. The feeling of soul and body development intoxicated and excited his mind. Everyone in this world was obsessed with development for a reason. Anyone who was your equal not long ago may become lower in strength and status at any time. The difference in one stage could turn the balance of power.

He created adamantium when he was in the 5th stage. With the help of Synergy, he found out that the stone had become stronger, which surprised him a lot. The matter in this world turned out to have an energy component that determined its strength. When Kyon increased his stage of development, the matter he created became stronger. At some point, his adamantium would surely exceed the Stone sword in strength, it would also surpass the best weapons of the dwarves and not only that. It all came down to his development.

Kyon decided to put theory to practice. He created two small sharp sticks from a different substance. One of them was of medium strength granite, the other was of high strength quartz. He infused the granite stick with pure energy and struck it against the quartz stick. The result was perplexing: the granite stick with pure energy inside could not cut through the quartz. Kyon had expected a different result. Pure energy was to take the blow and help granite cut the quartz.

The results of the experiment proved that infusing pure energy into the weapon doesn’t make it stronger. However, the attack significantly gains in power, it gets heavier by a hundred or two kilos.

Kyon knew that pure energy works one-sidedly. For example, at the clash with Juno’s fists, it dampened her strength while the surplus of pure energy harmed her. But in the case of the sticks, one of them cut the other before pure energy took effect.

About an hour of experiments later, Kyon learned some new information.

It turned out that pure energy was good for body protection. Kyon could survive the attack of an equal opponent: a fist blow, heat, cold, electricity, a blunt trauma, a penetrating trauma to a lesser extent. However, under certain conditions, pure energy couldn’t take effect when two solid objects came in contact with each other.

The condition is as follows: if the difference in the quality of the weapon is high enough, the sharper weapon will cut the less sharp before pure energy takes effect. However, if the weapons are approximately equal in quality and the attacks are crossed… Kyon had to be ready for the full impact of the difference in forces. In the best-case scenario, he would drop the weapon. In the worst case, he would get a dislocated shoulder or even a shattered bone.

{So, it is advantageous to have high-quality, sharp weapons against strong opponents…} – It was rather annoying that his pure energy was just the same as that of the practitioner who was only five stages above him. It means that someone only a phase higher could make mincemeat of him with a single blow. Or if the clash of weapons didn’t chop up one of them, he was in for the impact of the blow.

Kyon wondered how he could raise the quality of his weapons.

He infused a sharp granite stick with the attribute of light and hit the durable quartz stick one more time. To his delight, less durable granite cut through the quartz. As expected, the attribute of light made the matter much stronger, therefore, more efficient. There it was the first essencial combat aspect of the attribute of light.
