Transcending Dreams

B2 - Chapter 92

William didnt want to use it, not this early, but he was left with no choice. The speed that the Sky Hare Emperor revealed that it was far beyond him without any boosts.

The Elemental Gauntlet was too costly, and its effects were still unknown. It left him with [Force Multiplier], his often used trump card, almost to the point of losing the right to be called trump card.

[-200 Spiritual Energy]

The Sky Hare Emperor tilted its head when ethereal flames came to life around his body as if it was curious about what challenge he offered now.

William hoped it stayed curious long enough to stay put and receive a quick death. A sharp metallic gong echoed when he pushed off the platform.

He closed the short distance between him and the Sky Hare Emperor in a fraction of a second. It was still staring at the spot where he was standing when his palm was inches from its face.

By some miracle, it was able to react in time to avoid instant pulverization. Instead of hopping to the sides or behind to avoid his palm, the Sky Hare Emperor went up.

Williams ridiculously strong momentum carried him forward at a force that was too much to redirect. Still, his palm left a deep, nearly fatal gash along the underside of the Sky Hare Emperors body. If only it was a thousandths of a second slower in reacting to his strike, he was sure he would have successfully taken its life.

He stomped on the platform to slow his momentum, but because it was metal, it offered little help. He slammed into the wall at nearly full speed, his hands bracing for impact to prevent any injuries resulting from the collision.

William pushed off and turned as quickly as possible, not wanting to leave himself to an attack from the back. After a quick scan, he was surprised to find the platform empty but immediately looked up.

The Sky Hare Emperor was flying, using the small wings protruding from its back. It was already near the ceiling to get as far away from him as it could.

He could see why. It was bleeding heavily from the large gash that spanned the entire length of its body. However, it wasnt as precarious of an injury as he assumed it would be.

William could see the wound repairing itself before his eyes. He estimated that it would be healed in a few seconds.

He wouldnt give it the time.

William previously needed to use the walls to make a climb, but [Force Multiplier] had many uses, from brutal attacks, like ripping a spirit beast in half with his bare hands, to simple abilities, like jumping much higher.

He bent his legs slightly, catching the worry in the Sky Hare Emperors eyes. With a smirk, he shot toward it like a rocket, covering the distance in less than a second.

Very fast, but not fast enough to catch the rabbit. Williams expression didnt change when it barely moved out of the way to avoid death, leading him to head straight into the ceiling.

He shifted his body to land on the ceiling feet first. The tremendous force with which he slammed into it kept him standing upside down as if he could defy the natural laws, but only for a moment.

That was more than enough for William to track the Sky Hare Emperor. It hadnt got far enough to be in any real safety.

He pushed off the ceiling with the same force as his jump. This time, gravity assisted him instead of fighting against him. The Sky Hare Emperor tried to get away, and when that obviously wouldn't work, it tried to attack him, but none of its efforts were successful.

William casually batted away the sharp claws aimed at him. The thing that did so much damage against him was entirely ineffective. He slammed into the Sky Hare Emperor hands first, its body depressing inward at the point of contact, the healing gash reopening in a worse state.

He plummeted to the platform with the Sky Hare Emperor trying to free itself under him. Of course, it could do nothing.

William didnt try to soften his own landing by letting go. He wanted to make sure the Sky Hare Emperor would die, leaving no chance for it to make a comeback.

A thunderous boom shook the platform, overshadowing the Sky Hare Emperor dying an explosive death from the impact. The bloody result doused Willam and everything around him, leaving only a few remaining intact body parts.

[Level Up! | 10 Stat Points Added] x2

He grimaced before spitting out the small amount of blood that got into his mouth. He still had no idea how those things were automatons. They were all flesh and blood.

The word automaton must be broad.

William wiped his face, shook the blood off his hands, and looked around. It was a shame that the strongest Sky Hare Emperor turned into this. It was impossible to try and pull all of this into his spatial stone unless.

He sent his Qi into the spatial stone to see if the egg was finished with the corpses he sent. It was, and it vibrated in excitement when it sensed his Qi.

William chuckled and pulled it out of the stone. He didnt know when the platform would start moving again, so time was of the essence.

You have a few seconds to clean up all of the mess around me, William said, holding the egg at level with his face. Start now.

He was surprised when it swelled a bit before returning to its normal state. At the same time, the egg sent him a ping that felt like acceptance.

William placed it in the largest puddle of blood and stepped back. Enjoy.

The appearance of the vortex was near instantaneous after he said the word, but the gathering of the splattered remains was slow due to how spread out they were. Still, at least it wasnt going to waste.

[Trait Activated | Blood Loss]

[-10 HP]

William glanced at the system alert in surprise. [Force Multiplier] had negated almost all the effects of his poor state, and he had forgotten a chunk of his calf was missing.

He pulled up his status screen to see the total damage.

Experience: 7692/15875

Cultivation: Foundation Establishment (Early Stage)

Health: 1790/2100

Traits (2):

1. Heavenly Thunder Infusion Passive effect (+20 Agility)

2. Blood Loss (-10 HP per minute)

William intended to focus on his health, and he did glance at it initially, but his attention was quickly taken by his attributes. Specifically, his Strength, Stamina, and Agility. He was aware that [Force Multiplier] increased those attributes by four times, but he had never pulled up his status screen while it was active.

Ironically, [Force Multiplier] deactivated as William was marveling at his own stats, removing the massive boosts to his attributes before his eyes.

He frowned as he returned to considering how to recover his health. While anger might be a terrible way to activate Healing Qi, he had found a perfect way while fighting the Sky Hare Emperors.

All he had to do was think of those damned rabbits, and it would skyrocket. In fact, he could feel it happening simply by thinking of the possibility.

The question was whether it was sensible to spend six hundred and twenty Spiritual Energy or use the good old Vitality Restoration Pills.

He hated the idea of ingesting more impurity, but it might be the best option.

William stared at the egg vacuuming up the remains as he thought it over, half-hoping the platform would start to move again so the only choice would be to take the pill.

[Trait Activated | Blood Loss]

[-10 HP]

He grimaced at seeing the alert. Every minute wasted would cost him more Spiritual Energy.

William forgoed his usual habit of sitting down and simply thought about the Sky Hares: their falsely innocent looks, their ravenous cannibalistic appetite, his fear of them when they chased him in the Garden long ago, and the rage he felt when he saw him come out of the cave revealed by the platform.

He started to sweat in fear when nearly all of his Qi was instantly converted to Healing Qi. The feeling of danger was as high as it could have been, like one wrong move would end his life before he knew it.

William shoved the fear away the best he could to keep feeling the anger, running his Healing Qi to the injured areas of his body, starting with his calf. He needed to rid himself of the blood loss trait first.

He was finished healing himself surprisingly fast. The egg was still trying to draw in the scattered remains.

[Trait Removed | Blood Loss]

[+320 HP]

[-640 Spiritual Energy]

William glanced at his previously half-missing half and smiled. It looked as if it had never been harmed.

So much for not being suitable for the healing arts. He imagined himself as the first cultivator who became immortal because he was simply too furious to die.

He chuckled to himself and looked at his Spiritual Energy stat.

Spiritual Energy: 299/1130 (20% per Hour)

It was sufficient for a second use of [Force Multiplier] if necessary, but it was still uncomfortably low. He needed to fix that.
