Chapter 78 - War And Harmony
A halberd made of energy was performing various moves with quite an exquisite skill, this was my last skill combination. It kind of became a boring process after doing it for 5 times prior.

Concept & Skill accumulation:
'Tactical Halberd' Intermediate lv.1, 0% (Integration 0.9%)]
It seemed like even a lv1 beginner skill that I rarely practiced would still reach intermediate level under the influence of its respective energy, similar to what happened to the bow art…
However, the most important thing that happened was skill evolution, it even caused a little breakthrough to the third level 'Omni-Mastery'. It seemed kinda similar to what happened with 'Dagger Mastery' and 'Sword Energy' but the major difference was that I didn't learn any axe art earlier.
While a halberd was also just a branch that grew out of the axe, somewhat like a spear with the head of an axe, it appeared quite possible to apply axe and halberd techniques interconnectedly, which isn't something that is normally possible.
I proceeded with the integration process, However, as soon as it ended after less than two hours and the now Axe like energy shapes started to stabilize, something that is quite unexpected happened!
My body felt like there was a raging storm brewing inside of it, it was a war between energies! It looked like the weaker four types of energy were fighting for supremacy against sword energy….
Normally, people who managed to awaken one kind of energy would be considered elites, a dual-energy wielder would be considered a 1 in a million genius, penta-energy wielders were simply unheard of, and as such no one has faced this dilemma of having enough energies out of his control fighting it out.
While suppressing them with mental energy (If I had a high enough Wisdom stat ) would stabilize the situation it would only be for a limited time, it was only a temporary solution that I couldn't even think about as my pockets were empty of stat points…
Consoling Long might hardly prove useful and I couldn't even find him once more as he probably hid the ring without me being capable of taking him out. Though that didn't cause me to panic, as he didn't hurry to appear it meant that the situation was still in hand, and I had a hunch on what would dissolve the problem….

The energy stopped moving with a thud, it started bustling again after a few seconds, however, their act was incredibly different. Just like how 'Dagger Energy' fused with 'Sword Energy', all energies started moving closer and rushing back to the source, the left ventricle in my heart.
All sorts of weapon energy started leaving my body and condensing within the left ventricle making an orb like shape, abruptly leaving my body clean of energy….
Just then, the small as big as a pearl orb, gave birth to a stream no, a river…. No! It was an ocean, the ocean explosion was spreading all over my body, I felt invigorated as the ocean of pure energy rotated a full cycle around my body, just before…. Fainting again.....
