CHAPTER 326: TIER 4 VOID VENERATE RANK

After settling everything with the new base, Nash returned to his residence and began to train.

"It’s time to see how effective this Infinite Elemental Manual is..."

Taking out the wind elemental crystals from his storage space, Nash activated the [Training Module System].

Flipping through the Wind Chapter of the Infinite Elemental Manual, the void energy around him began to revolve.

Watching through his runic eyes, he saw the void energy being stripped of all its properties, leaving only the wind element behind.

Extracting this pure wind element energy, it began to circulate within his body, attempting to replace his void energy.

Like plain water, it began to take on the color of wind. However, before it could touch and affect his void core, it was forcibly stopped by his [Training Module System].

Nash’s approach to his advancement was different from others.

Instead of transforming his void core into an elemental core, he planned to create an independent elemental core for each element he mastered.

Such a path was incredibly time-consuming, resource-intensive, and nearly impossible.

Furthermore, even if he condensed multiple elemental cores, without merging them into his void core, his power would remain the same.

From forming all 1,618 elements, then integrating them with his void core into one, the process would be a long battle, and he would be at the bottom the entire time.

Nash would have to endure a 99.9% weakened state so that he could reach the 0.01% extreme state!

Thinking of the various challenges he would face on the way, Nash steeled himself.

Even if it took hundreds of years before he could advance to the Tier 5 Void Marshal Rank, he could endure it.

Having deduced the strongest and most perfect path ahead of him, and knowing the dangers and tribulations that lay ahead, Nash was willing to continue.

---

Soon, as the hours passed by, Nash finally managed to produce a tiny dot of an elemental core.

"I’ve finally condensed an elemental core!" Nash smiled happily.

Although it was still a hundredth of the way before he could form a true elemental core, he had already taken a step.

"Now I just need to condense 10% more, and I can advance to Void Venerate Rank!"

---

Six days later, after diligent training, his wind elemental core finally reached 10% progress.

Having condensed a sizable amount of the elemental core, Nash easily used it as leverage to advance to Void Venerate.

Connecting his void core to the wind elemental core, his void energy underwent some changes, now possessing a hint of wind power!

"I’ve finally advanced to the Void Venerate Rank!" Nash clenched his fist, feeling the surge of power.

Unfortunately, besides the pitiful amount of wind element, there was hardly any other change.

"So, this is what it means to pick the most extreme path, huh?"

Instead of full integration, his void core and wind elemental core were barely connected by a strand of power.

Capable of only transferring a sliver of elemental energy, it was no wonder he couldn’t even mobilize the wind element.

"What about summoning the Wind Celestial Beast?!" Nash suddenly thought.

A few days ago, he tried to activate the Celestial Star System and use his tiny bit of wind elemental core to summon a celestial beast, only to fail.

Now, having grown ten times larger, Nash wondered if it was enough to be used as a source of power.

Soon, trying to summon the Wind Elemental Beast, the wind began to revolve before him, forming a fist-sized fairy.

Seeing the little creature before him, Nash wasn’t surprised.

Unlike his void core and soul core, which were at 10,000% condensation, his elemental core was at measly 10%.

"Now, show me your power!"

Commanding it with his thoughts, the wind elemental beast began to mobilize its power, controlling the wind around him.

As if a hurricane were passing through his body, Nash was nearly swept away.

"Haha, nice. It seems my path had no effect on the Celestial Beast!"

Estimating the power of the Wind Elemental Beast, Nash calculated that it reached a staggering 1.1 trillion combat power!

One had to know that the power of the Void Celestial Beast, with its 10,000% condensation rate, could only reach so much.

Yet, having only 10% progress, the wind elemental beast easily reached the same level!

"Awesome! It seems I wouldn’t have any problem after all."

Following the usual path, mastering an element to 100% could boost one’s combat power by up to a thousand times.

From SSS-level affinity that could amplify an individual’s combat power up to 1000 times, SS-level void affinity to 700 times, S-level void affinity to 300 times, and A-level void affinity that could provide an amplification up to 100 times.

As for his mere D-level affinity, even after mastering an element, it could only provide up to 70 times the amplification.

It could be said that affinity was everything when it came to the mastery and power of an element.

However, the celestial beast he summoned didn’t seem to follow the alignment of his affinity.

Based on its current progress and power, it at least had A-level Void Affinity!

This was only in terms of raw power; when it came to control, Nash estimated it could even surpass those who had SSS void affinity!

After all, no matter how high one’s talent was, they were not an elemental being born from the wind itself!

Furthermore, what made Nash happier was that he could use the same power and affinity for himself!

Commanding the Wind Celestial Beast, Nash merged it with his body.

Feeling the wind suddenly become as familiar as a part of his body, Nash couldn’t help but fly, flowing through the breeze like the wind itself.

Unfortunately, as if having a low battery, before Nash could fully fly into the sky, his wind elemental energy bottomed out, sending him falling down.

"Not good!"

Taking out a wind elemental crystal, Nash hurriedly absorbed it, replenishing his wind energy as he controlled the wind to break his fall.

"Phew~ I almost fell!" Nash wiped the sweat from his brow.

The power of the celestial beast was all good, but unfortunately, the consumption seemed to be hundreds of times higher than usual.

Even though it could replenish itself almost instantaneously, after all, there was still a pause in between.
