I Just Inherited The Arcane Emperor's Legacy

Chapter 226 Technique

Chapter 226  Technique

There were two things left in his entire agenda. The first one included figuring out the strength of his aura.

For that, he would need to learn aura techniques and be able to use them in battle. Without that, his aura would be useless. He only had a month and not all of that time could go to this.

He searched through his mind and quickly found what he was looking for. There were 5 techniques he could learn as a 3rd Circle Aura Knight. Compared to what he got from the Arcane Emperor, they were indeed a higher number of techniques for a single level.

But he understood why there were very few to learn. If he spent too much time learning multiple techniques, he would never master any of them completely and would also advance by then to the next level.

At that point, the techniques would become useless as he would need to devote more of his time to new and stronger techniques. The case in point was his case with the Obsidian Blades.

He hadn't even reached Expert proficiency with any of the 2nd Circle Aura Techniques he learned. That was why, even though he had 5 aura techniques, he was only going to learn three of them. And to pick them out, he was going to employ one of his very useful assets.

"So Nefrati, I need you to pick out the best aura techniques for me out of these. I need to be learning them within ten days," he said to her.

When he first started asking her that question, she got a little excited, but she quickly changed her mind when he finished it.

"10 days? I don't think you will find any aura technique for 3rd Circles that you can learn in ten days. You just moved to Blood Aura, so you will take months to get used to it and properly use Aura techniques with it."

"Just give me the easiest techniques to learn. I will figure it out from there," he said.

If what she said was true, he would start with the offensive technique and then move to the movement technique. If time permits him, he would learn the other ones, but otherwise, he was going to shift to the final part of his agenda.

What he learned from his fight with the 4th Circle Aura Knight was that he would have won with no effort if he just learned the offensive spell presented to him. So he would do just that and make sure he wouldn't be placed in a position like the one he was in before.

"Fine, give the techniques. But let me warn you, you will definitely fail. Just don't force your body, or you will injure yourself," she said.

"Crimson Whiplash: Create tendrils of blood that extend from my body and lash out at my opponents.

Sanguine Barrage: Manipulate my blood into projectiles that I can launch at my enemies.

Blood Flow: Concentrating my blood energy in my legs and releasing it in a powerful burst, allowing for bursts of power.

Hemaline Flow: Allows me to manipulate the viscosity of my blood, making it flow faster through my veins.

Hemal Shield: Create a barrier of condensed blood energy around me, forming a protective shield that absorbs and disperses incoming attacks."

Nefrati thought for a second before quickly giving her opinion.

"You cannot learn the Sanguine Barrage since it requires a very high mastery of blood aura. Even then, it uses your blood for power which might be dangerous. And the Hemaline Flow is weaker and harder to use than Blood Flow.

The only benefit is that you can use it along with other techniques, but there are stronger techniques similar to it that you will be able to learn at a higher stage."

"Thank you, Nefrati. Now, what makes the Crimson Whiplash better, again? Is it easier to learn?" He asked.

"That also. Since you can start with a single tendril, it should be easy to start learning it. Mastery will take longer than the barrage, though."

"That doesn't matter. I will start with the Whiplash then."

After saying that, he stood up and stretched his body. He was ready to start training immediately without any rest. As he said before, he only had 10 days to learn the aura techniques.

He would learn what he could, and then move on to the spells. The only time he wouldn't shift to spells would be if he hadn't even mastered the Crimson Whiplash. That would be problematic since he would need a way to attack his opponents at the Phoenix Trials.

While he was still unsure of the manner it would be conducted, he needed to be prepared to fight against other candidates.

to using his new aura yet.

So his plan was to familiarize himself with it by controlling it and The blood aura in his body started moving around as he commanded it. It stayed in his body and didn't leave yet because he listened to Nefrati. She was right when she said that he wasn't used to using his new aura yet.

So his plan was to familiarize himself with it by controlling it and messing around with it without worrying about the aura technique. After circulating it around his body for a little, he brought it out.

It exited through his fingertips as tiny tendrils, but these weren't for attacking. They were harmless pieces of aura that just wiggled around at his command. Once he felt that the tiny tendrils were completely in his commands, he increased the amount of aura he was letting out.

The tendrils doubled in size and he started to control them. Now they were a few inches long so he could actually see them. He kept at it and slowly increased the size of the tendrils once they were in his complete control.

Hours passed by as he focused solely on gaining control over the aura. Nefrati watched this with acknowledgment since it was the right thing to do. The only thing that left a distaste in her was how quickly he was able to increase the size of the tendrils.

She thought he would take half a month since he had absolutely no experience, and that was considering his monstrous talent. To her credit, she wasn't aware that Leo did, in fact, have some experience with controlling blood aura.

He had spent several days in the weird place where he controlled the Blood God's body like it was his own. He had experienced the aura flowing through his attacks and now that it was happening in his own body, it was almost natural.

Moreover, because he had used aura techniques with the blood aura, he was far more familiar with it than even he had thought. A day passed since he broke through and he was perfectly in control of the aura inside him.

Well, as perfect as he could be. There was a limit that he could achieve and crossing it would take too much time. Time that he couldn't afford to give.

Once he had gained control, he stopped releasing the numerous tendrils from his fingertips. They were all absorbed back into his body. After that, he started training in the real aura technique - the Crimson Whiplash.
