"Hmm~."
Quash studied his Status Window intently. There was no changes exapt three. His Pure Aura Stat went up and his skill also upgraded in Proficiency, making Fusion Available.
But that didn’t make him happy. It made him irritated instead. This option was like a fried chicken leg peice hanging in fornt of him but he couldn’t ear it.
It was very displeasing. He shook his head and dis missed the Status Window with a sigh.
There wasn’t much gains. 50 in Resistance didn’t count much. But it was still better than nothing.
And his Pure Aura Stats increased by 7... only 7.
"Sigh~. They say 7 is a lucky number~ so Whatever. Let’s wait until Academy."
Quash murmured before pulling the blanket over him and getting comfortable on the bed. Preparing to sleep.
His mind drifting off to the scarcity of Natural Energy. He had hopped around the city for a week or so for the Pure Aura Stats to increase only by 5. But there in the sky, he just did some serious side Jumps for few minutes and it increased by 7.
But it still felt disatisfying to him. Mainly because he had expected more. And another reason is because it was slow. Not nearly enough to compensate his efforts.
He couldn’t help but think that people in Higher Dansity Regions have it good.
And another reason for his irritation is his inability to get maximum benefits.
He could understand the small increase in Stats, but what really irritated him he couldn’t get another Energy Stats.
The Lighting Aura Stats.
Quash turned a d stared at the ceiling with an annoyed expression. His nostrils flaring a bit in irritation.
He was looking at his Lower Dantian with his Inner Sight and his Pure Aura Core, there was another smaller looking Core was orbiting. Or more like Quash was over seeing it.
It was shining in bright blue light. It felt cold, lethal and prickly at the same time. It was the size of a grain. This was the Lighting Aura. Quash has gained this amount while jumping around. He had separated it from his Pure Aura simultaneously and this was the result.
He had accumulated the purest form of Lighting because of his Spacial Condition and Title. Of course there are stronger and better Lighting in quality out there. But this was the best of this area.
But regardless of that. The reason Quash couldn’t get Lighting stat was because he didn’t know how to.
He ahd tried to make it orbit Around his main Aura Core like he had read in the novel, when Alan had acquired more than one Energy Stats, but it didn’t work.
The reason being primarily because he didn’t have a higher grade Cultivation Method like Alan of the future.
He had thought that he could by pass it by imitating, but it looks like he was missing some fundamental principles to accomplish that. With no other way in sight, he decided to let it go. Because un assimilated Aura in the Lower Dantian or any Energy in any Dantian in that matter us like poison.
Like oxygen, even though people can’t live without it, holding it in for long will harm the person instead.
It could cause mental exhaustion because a person needs to keep their attention on it 24/7. If they don’t, it may clash with the stable Energy Core and Endurance exploding. Resulting in one experiencing fireworks in their lower stomach in the middle of the night or stomach straight up exploding itself. Resulting in even more fascinating... bloody work.
...
Thus, Quash channeled all the Pure Lighting Aura through his blood vessels, and let it out through his palm which was pointed towards the ceiling.
Blue Lighting crackling over his palm for few seconds before disappearing in the air.
Quash looked at his Lower Dantian for any remenats and found none. All the Pure Lighting Aura has been dispersed in the air.
"Sigh~."
With that, Quash felt a bit hollow. Such an opportunity, all went to drain. But his mind replyed the scene of the Lighting Aura dispersing, it was truly beautiful.
He wondered if he could do something with it. Like creating a technique or something. But he realised that he doesn’t even have Lighting to begin with.
"Sigh-.... Damn. I might as well dub myself as the Sighing man. Sig- OK. This is getting annoying."
Quash murmured with a frown and slipped the Sigh from escaping hi lips. When he felt he wasn’t about to Sigh, he sighed in reli-
"Dammnnn itt!!"
He face slapped himself in genuine irritation. He felt it was becoming a habit at this point. So he became more vigilant, and for a while, there wasn’t any sigh coming up which was a relief and he couldn’t help but sigh in-
"Guaaaagghhhgghh!!!!"

For the past 7 days, the ship flew through the sky almost never stopping. Only stopping when there is some dense area of Natural Energy. Or maybe attributed Natural Energy for the students to absorb.
One such place was an mountain. Its tip was covered in ice. The surrounding was extremely chilling. People without Resistance for Cold couldn’t even circulate in that area because of the extreme cold. Their Vains or Meridians would freeze. And Quash was no exception.
Although he could have tried, but the prickling sensation was too uncomfortable and reminded him of the first time he tried to circulate Aura with 1000 cycles per second.
But aside from that, there were very few places they stopped. Quash, Alan and Elina had enjoyed the breath taking view of nature. They have seen many things online but seeing it with their own eyes was another thing. And this was also their first time travelling this far from home.
And there was also excitement of reaching the Academy City. Each day, they would get closer to the Academy City and the silent anticipation of starting their new life in a new environment.
And after 7 long days of travelling, they have finally arrived in the Academy City.
