According to the book, there were very rare 'Elemental Arts' that had the ability to evolve further or even fuse with other arts. However, such arts were very rare almost to the point of being nonexistent.

Normal 'Elemental Arts' were pretty static, one could only practice one art in their life, they can't make modifications to it or enhance it or such, once its foundation was set. The only way of changing that was destroying that foundation completely with the risk of losing your attribute affinity.

'Evolving arts' were capable of adding fragments of other arts of similar attributes to develop into a more perfect art, they were theoretically capable of reaching the pinnacle of one attribute 'Elemental Arts'.

'Fusion arts' were in fact the only way for a person to train in more than one method which was the static of most arts, they were even chances of fusing & training two close related attributes if the right method was used for the fusion.

On the other hand, 'Lightning cell' was a mix of both rarities, it was a 'Evolving Fusion Art'! It also could be practiced like a normal art without adding anything which would be somewhat faster. However, to make use of its 'Evolving' & 'Fusion' properties, one would have to slow down a bit.

One had to stop at the first stage of elemental practice, and then setting the foundation for the new art which would fuse with the original 'Lightning Cell' and evolve into a better art.

Normally, even having 'fusion arts' wouldn't be the best thing, since one couldn't find elemental arts raining out of nowhere, I on the other hand had material for one so it was better than nothing.

In anycase, the problem of needing the complete 'Beast Art' wouldn't arise till I finish the whole first stage of elemental practice. So, the choice of whether to take the normal path or the evolving path of 'Lightning Cell' wasn't something that I had to make at the moment.

With all that being said and done, it was time to set the foundation of 'Lightning Cell' and worry about that later.

I sat cross-legged for the third time today as I cleared my mind, this was a very crucial task that needed my utmost concentration.

I first visualized a microscopic cell of a human being, I then summoned the thunder lion's attribute orb which was a very important key of this foundation setting.

Human cells were a very magnificent creation by god, it was basically the smallest unit of our human bodies, capable of regenerating every set period of time and even conduct electricity.

Lightning in itself was just a massive discharge of electricity, but would the cells even live after conducting lightning?

The answer would be, of course not.

And that was what the first stage of 'Lightning Cell' or any other 'Elemental Art' is about, 'Elemental Strengthening'!

To manipulate and even produce an element, one's body had to be capable of conducting it first, and here comes the turn of 'Elemental Strengthening'.

One would strengthen his conducting channel which are cells in my case, other arts would use bones, skin, or even certain organs. All of that using an element seed that could produce tempering level amounts of the elements which won't only be harmless for the body but also strengthen it as a whole in the process!

So, 'Elemental Strengthening' was a stage that gave two important benefits, and only after crossing this stage would one be considered a true elemental practitioner!

As for the foundation setting task, it was the very first step on the path, one would need to use an elemental source like an attribute orb, or a condensed elemental orb (Which I knew nothing of so far), to create the elemental seed.

What I needed to create was a literal lightning cell, so while there was a cell diagram in the book, it was far too outdated compared to my own knowledge of cells, which I only had to modify and condense using the lightning from the attribute orb.
