Tira read the details of the card she pulled out on her first try. A smile spread across her face since she liked the skill’s effect.
She didn’t waste any time deciding on the purchasing aspect and immediately picked it as her second fixed skill. She then reached for the last shelf in the top row.
Time flew by, and after the process of pulling the cards and then returning them numerous times, Tira gave up on the combination-type skill. She then left the counter and walked toward the semi-pillar.
Whether she would have three skills when she left the room or two, it all depended on the experience session, so she waited for her turn with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
After waiting for a few minutes, it was her turn. She immediately placed the [Quake Stride] on the card compartment, and following that, his consciousness teleported to another location.
***
Tira’s consciousness looked frightened as she found herself on an endless road with endless darkness behind her. The road was filled with danger as it had random obstacles spread across it, and many of them would simply kill her.
It wasn’t challenging for Tira to guess what was happening in the experience session, and as she had expected, her body suddenly activated the skill and began running.
Whoosh!
The darkness was chasing so fast that it made it sound like it was tearing through the air.
After Tira activated the skill, the ground beneath her, which was some kind of stone a moment earlier, began to turn into a shiny metal. Her legs moved, and as the earth turned into metal, she moved.
The first obstacle appeared to block her. It was a creature that immediately pounced on her.
Tira’s body remained calm, and she casually turned around. It was as if she were traveling in a garden, and before the creature could even fully pounce on her, she was already hundreds of meters away from it.
Time flew by, and Tira showed her complete control over the skill. The terrain was extremely challenging, but she made it easy, and after running for several minutes, she finally stopped.
It wasn’t that she exhausted her energy, but she had reached a safe barrier where the darkness couldn’t chase her.
Following that, Tira returned to the store, and the square screen on the semi-pillar lit up.
The content related to Tira’s training appeared on it, and with a single glance, the entire content was engraved in her memory.
[Skill: Quake Stride
Level: God
Cultivator: Early to Peak Lesser God
Elemental Compatibility: Metal: 68%, Earth: 47%
Skill Compatibility: 48%
Training Time: Four thousand seven hundred fifty years.]
Tira helplessly smiled when she saw the details. As she had expected, her compatibility with the element of earth was extremely low, and it brought her skill compatibility to below fifty percent.
Tira didn’t hesitate for even a moment and chose to return it to the counter after experiencing the remaining two skills.
Training for five thousand years for skill was a loss to her when she already had a top-quality movement-type skill. Only the transmutation type effect made her curious about the skill, but since her compatibility was too low, she wouldn’t be able to learn much about it.
She then brought her focus back to the experience session and replaced the [Quake Stride] with the [Terrarium Meld].
It was a skill she liked very much due to the metal, so she was excited about it as her consciousness teleported to a different location.
Tira found herself in a city that seemed on the verge of doom. There was an aura of gloom and destruction all around.
When she looked at the sky, her eyes widened in shock as the entire sky seemed to have been ripped apart by some powerful being.
Tira’s consciousness knew she was no match for the being because she could sense the stability of space. She couldn’t even cause a small crack in the space, let alone tear apart the sky.
Whoosh!
She suddenly heard the sound of a projectile approaching her. Her body immediately reacted and activated [Terrarium Meld].
The next moment, her skin turned into terrarium while her veins turned into earthen veins.
She seemed to have become a different creature altogether in less than a moment.
Clang!
A sound rang as the projectile crashed into her heart. Instead of piercing or causing any injury, the sharp needle-like item failed to cause even a dent.
Tira’s consciousness breathed a sigh of relief and marveled simultaneously. She could see the strength behind the attack.
It couldn’t kill her, but it had more than enough lethality to cause a severe wound. Whereas for the skill, it didn’t even have enough strength to force her to repel it. She simply faced it and nothing happened.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Before Tira’s consciousness could celebrate much, she heard the sound of many elements tearing through the air, approaching her direction.
It came from all directions. She looked like she was surrounded by the bombardment of needles if someone were to look from a third-person view.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The repeated sound of metallic clashes rang as the needle-like projectiles crashed on Tira.
The skill didn’t turn Tira immobile, so she moved with the projectiles and dodged as many as she could. Her movement was slower than usual, but it still helped her dodge the projectiles that seemed more threatening.
The less threatening ones got repelled by her without any limit.
