Chapter 1060 The Seventh Element Part 2

"What the heck?" Friya blurted out.

"As I said, pure mana. To affect something, most of its strength is focused on its point, making the tendril just a conduit. An impact strong enough can cut the tendril and any kind of foreign mana disrupts Spirit Magic in its first magic form.

"Potions, spells that make you emit an aura like Full Guard, fusion magic, all of them make Spirit Magic a complete waste of mana. If not for it being invisible and effective on non-magical creatures, one might think that Spirit Magic is useless.

"Yet they couldn’t be farther from the truth." Faluel recalled the tendrils, using them to form a translucent emerald barrier around herself. "Feel free to attack me as you like."

Each one of her students cast a tier three spell of a different element and threw it against the barrier. Instead of just hitting it as they expected, the spherical barrier was actually spinning on itself, capturing the spells and sending them back to their caster.

"I could have easily used your spells against someone else, but my aim is to teach you, not to harm you. Spirit Magic can resemble Light Mastery at a first glance, but they are very different.

"Spirit Magic is as fast as air magic, as sturdy as earth magic, it can shapeshift like hard-light constructs, but it has none of the limitations of the other elements. Its greatest downside is the huge mana expenditure it requires due to not using any elemental energy. Any question?" Faluel said.

"I thought you would teach me Spirit Magic only after we completed Healing Magic and Forgemastering. What made you change your mind?" Lith said.

"Nothing. That’s still the plan. What I’m going to teach you today is not like to weave Spirit Magic spells, but how to add Spirit Magic to your tier four and five spells like you would with any other element." Faluel replied.

"What? Are you saying that Spirit Magic is actually the seventh element?" The entirety of the class was flabbergasted and the non-Awakened felt envy eating at them from the inside.

"That’s exactly what I’m saying. That’s why Awakened consider themselves superior to everyone else. We are the only ones who can use the seventh element. Not the Abominations, not the children of the Guardians, not even the greatest genius can use it.

"I’m sorry, but that’s the truth." Faluel gave them a few seconds to let the news sink in until their wounded pride stopped being the only voice they heard.

"Even in its first magic form, Spirit Magic can be mixed with the elements to create new effects. If used in combination with light magic, it becomes a new limb that overcomes the short range of both healing and diagnostic spells."

All those who had witnessed Faluel treating Rena’s unborn child finally understood what had happened.

"If used with darkness or earth magic, it makes them faster and easier to manipulate." Faluel flicked her wrist, shooting a sphere of darkness as fast as a bullet that was the size of a marble.

It dug deep in the rock wall thanks to the darkness energy being focused on a single point instead of being spread over a huge mass. Then, Faluel raised her hands, conjuring six rocks the size of an adult man that struck at her students.

Despite their speed, Lith and Phloria managed to dodge it while Nalrond conjured a hard-light construct to defend himself. Unfortunately for them, the shooting stars shapeshifted into chains and changed their trajectory to follow their respective marks or get around their defenses. _{freewebnøvel.com}

"What the heck?" Even though he was using Fusion Magic to boost his enhanced body, Lith wasn’t able to break free from the chains.

"As I said, easier to manipulate. By adding kinetic energy to an element, Spirit Magic allows us to dramatically alter the effects of common spells. By adding Spirit Magic, water not only pierces its target, but it can also hit like a blunt weapon.
