《New Escape》New Escape Chapter Forty Six
Advertisement
The malevolent specters are completely unfazed by the rather wave of wind. Due to their spiritual nature they are probably only able to be damaged by those using spirit attacks. Those weaker than saint level are typically unable to use spirit attacks unless they are in the priest, necromancer or shamans trees. Some weapons can be enhanced with spiritual energy and cause spiritual damage, but these are incredibly rare at levels lower than saint. With my current icy spirit energy I should be able to damage them.
I begin to manipulate the air once more, but rather than using sparse amounts of spiritual energy to control it I instead infuse a large quantity of it. With a sweeping motion of my hand the sharp blade of wind extends out and cuts through a few of the multi-dozen specters. It would take less energy to infuse my body with spiritual energy and strike them physically, but the specters possess a powerful aura which could potentially harm me if I get to close.
Due to their strength I would typically remain at a distance, but the chaotic energy surges and I am filled with and overwhelming bloodlust.
"Let's have a bit of fun specters!" I shout out to the specters with a rather sinister sort of glee.
The dark chaotic energy flows from my spirit and enshrouds my body making me appear similar to the specters, yet my coloration is slightly different. My physical strength is not my strong suit, in real life or the game, so I use wind manipulation to assist my onslaught. With each step a burst of wind pushes my feet further and faster. I straighten my fingers out and sweep my hands for a knife-hand strike at the nearest specter's neck. The spiritual energy vanishes along with the specter. I burst forward and plant two palm strikes on the chests of the next two specters. Each palm strike sends out waves of icy spiritual energy and oscillates within them causing their energy to slow and stop then shatter.

"HAHAHA!! TOO WEAK!" My shout echoes happily into the long cavern. Realizing they are under immense threat from me the couple dozen specters attempt to flee. "Not so fast HAAHAHAAA!"
I don't give the specters a chance to flee. I can't use my most abundant golden energy in my current state, but my icy energy is still much more abundant than the chaotic. I focus nearly ninety percent of my icy energy into an orb in my hands and propel it into the middle of the specters.
"EXPLODE!! HAHAHA!" The chill inducing aura explodes and instantly freezes all the specters causing them to crumble to the floor. The walls of the cavern are covered in frost and the air is extremely dry now.
"Oh! That was a bit too powerful haha." I scratch the back of my head slightly embarrassed by how much I overdid it. While my golden energy is the most abundant my icy energy is much more refined, so using a majority of it will still have devastating results.
After using nearly the whole of my pale blue energy I can't use it again until it regenerates, which will take a long time unless I can absorb ice essence from somewhere. My chaotic energy is easy to regenerate thanks to the large quantity of chaotic specters in the area, but this will also take a bit of time as I do not have full control and understanding over it yet.
"This place is a lot more fun than I thought before. Not playing in a party is fun too, it means I can go all out and don't have any worries haha." I casually begin strolling down the amethyst cavern once again.
After thirty minutes I reach the end of the tunnel. Sitting on top of a crystal pedestal is a bright red crystal. I grab this crystal and begin heading back to the doorways. This path was much less perilous than it would have been had I not been in control of my spiritual energy, it kind of feels like a cheat.
After a few minutes I get bored and decide to log off, I have spent a considerable amount of time playing solo and should probably eat or go to bed.
