Strings Of Domination - Chapter 116

While Nash, Miles, and Amy decided to look around the Hidden Library and see if there were anything worth seeing or even learning, outside the Crimson Mountain several presences varying from the Infant Rank all the way to the peak of the Warmaster Rank began to emerge one after another.

At first, only a few arose but as time went on more and more emerged, surrounding the massive crimson mountain almost from all directions! Looking from above, one would think an entire army emerged for the sole reason to surround and assault someone or something at the peak of the mountain!

Though unfortunately, this was not the case, and even after two hours after these beings arrived at the foot of the mountain, none of them moved much less initiated an attack that targeted the massive peak in front of them.

The reason? It was because even at this very moment as they stared at the mountain, the whole earth below their feet shook like crazy while a pillar of light broke toward the sky with such manner that it split and scattered the dense clouds high above in the sky!

The whole land on and around the mountain in at least a hundred miles radius was illuminated with such bright glow that those with a sensitive sight were unable to keep their eyes open while the rest had to narrow their eyes if they wished to at least see the silhouette of Crimson Mountain!

“For fucks sake! When will that damn pillar of light vanish? I can’t see shit!” Zoar, who was among the several that decided to check out what was happening cursed out loud as he struggled to keep his eyes open whenever he looked in the direction of the mountain.

“Be patient. Cursing and throwing a tantrum won’t solve a thing.” Flake who stood a few meters away from Zoar spoke coolly, staring at the pillar of light in the distance with seemingly no problem. His face was even nonchalant, further showing the literally blinding light was not affecting his vision at all!

“I still can hardly believe that a mere Dimensional Class Art that only enhances your eyesight can allow you to stare straight into that shit!” Zoar hissed coldly as he shifted his gaze at Flake, blinking at him several times thanks to him staring for so long into the pillar of light.

“Well, you have to believe it as that is the truth. Even my brother has learned it.” Flake said nonchalantly as he pointed casually into the distance where Bane with his broken hand also stared at the blinding pillar of light with seemingly no problem.

Zoar followed Flake’s finger and seeing Bane he began to ponder before asking, “That Domination Art… How much do you want in exchange for it?”

Flake gave a sidelong glance at Zoar and seeing he was not lying and indeed wished to buy the Art he was currently using, he hummed gently and said, “Let’s see… How about 1 Galaxy Jade Crystal?”

“Are you on fucking drugs or what? Do you really think I will buy a trash Dimensional Class Art for 1 Galaxy Jade Crystal? From that, I can easily buy a hundred and left even with enough to live for an entire month! You are fucking shameless!” a disgusted sneer escaped Zoar’s mouth as he looked at Flake like a clown.

“Take or leave. That is my deal.” Flake said with an indifferent face before adding calmly, “Furthermore, if you think about how you will be able to teach it to the rest of your men, 1 Galaxy Jade Crystal is pretty cheap. Maybe I should increase the price…”

Zoar’s face turned ugly when he heard what Flake said, but as he realized he was telling the truth and he could indeed allow the hundreds of soldiers under his command to learn the same Domination Art in seconds, he realized 1 Galaxy Jade Crystal was indeed a cheap price.

Thus, after pondering for a while, Zoar quickly clenched his teeth and after taking out a small crystal from his pouch he threw it to Flake, “Okay, deal. Here you go.”

Flake grabbed the crystal without turning his head that Zoar threw at him and raised it before his eyes.

“It’s always a pleasure to make business with you.” Flake smiled once he saw it was indeed a Galaxy Jade Crystal and quickly threw a small scroll to Zoar.

“Go and drive that pleasure of yours up to your ass!” Zoar hissed coldly as he grabbed the scroll and began to read its context.

And exactly five seconds later, a gentle white glint flashed around Zoar’s retina, allowing him to stare at the white pillar of light in the distance without any problem.

“It works, haha!” Zoar was delighted and quickly handed it over to his men on his side to hurry them to learn it too.

After that time quickly passed in silence, but even after another 3 hours, nothing seemed to change. The tremor, although with much weaker strength than at the start but still continued to shake the whole planet while the white pillar of light except for having a slight transparent shade was still glowing with blinding rays!

“This is not right,” Flake mumbled quietly and after thinking for a while be said something to the soldier on his side before starting to walk toward the mountain.

“Huh? Where are you going?” Zoar asked when he saw how Flake, Bane, and all the SLayers began to walk toward the mountain.

“We are going to go closer. You can stay here if you want until then.” Flake replied and without waiting for an answer began to run.

Zoar watching how all the hundreds of Slayers vanished in the dense whiteness in the distance clenched his teeth and shouted, “All of you! Let’s go!”

Thus, in a flash, all the Silver Dragons began to run after the group of Slayers. And it was not only them but many others too with the ability to resist the blinding glow.

Inside the Hidden Library.

Since saying his farewell to Aruer, about 9 hours have passed. Naturally, 6 hours were not a small amount but if he considered those hours that have passed with studying and even learning different Domination Arts that increased his strength and knowledge, Nash knew that those 9 hours were an extremely short amount of duration!

“Sigh… Under nine hours I was only able to find a single Domination Art which demanded no requirements to learn.” Nash sighed as he glanced at the rows of texts in his line of sight.

———————————

[Domination Art: Eternal Dance]

• Description: A powerful ancient Domination Art created by a well-renowned dancer during the Ancient Era which was born through mixing the movements of dancing with the moves of martial arts!

• Domination Class: True Domination

{Abilities}

° Eternal Dance: An ability that grants the user the knowledge of a powerful movement technique, allowing the user to avoid a barrage of attacks continuously!

° Infinite Rhythm: An ability that activates depending on the rhythm of attacks. The more varied the assaults that wish to claim the user’s life, the more varied the movement pattern of the Eternal Step will become hence decreasing the possibility of others predicting the user’s movement!

<It requires 10 units of essences upon activation and depletes 1 unit of essences after every second!>

{Passive Abilities}

° Eternal Stamina: During the usage of the Eternal Dance, the ability’s usage time will be completely dependent on the user’s essence and not stamina!

<Further abilities can be unlocked by bringing the Domination Art to a higher Class!>

———————————

Nash read the words of his newly learned Domination Art in silence and even after he finished reading he failed to say a thing.

About 8 hours ago, he found a small scroll filled with drawings about dancing figures. At that time he only saw the description and the Class of the Domination Art but as he saw it did not have any requirement and only needed him to imitate the drawings to learn it, he gave it a try.

Though, at that time he didn’t know this Domination Art would turn out to be this powerful, especially its passive ability!

Although with his current amount of essence he won’t be able to use this movement technique for a long duration, once he reaches higher Ranks than the Warrior Rank this will definitely become the main pillar of his strength!

“And this ability… Infinite Rhythm. This power could literally turn me into an untouchable existence on a large-scale war!” Nash mumbled and uncontrollably a grin crept its way onto his face.

Luckily, he had a mask on his face or else Amy who was reading a book not far away from him and giving glances to him from time to time would think he had gone insane.

‘Anyways, I think it is time for me to make a breakthrough.’ Nash thought in his heart as he noticed how Amy and Miles were still doing their own business and without hesitation sat down into a lotus position.
