Earth's Alpha Prime

[You have successfully converged Grade-3 <Darkness Innate Talent> and Grade-5 <Tetra-Elemental Innate Talent>, creating a Grade-5

.]

[<Innate Talent Convergence> enters a 24-hour cooldown until it can be usable again.]

[Congratulations! You are the 1st Existence in the Entire Universe to combine five elements into one, creating a Penta-Element, 'Thunder Miasma', while just being in Tier-2.]

[Due to causing a Universe Level Achievement, you will receive a random grade reward that will be most useful to you at the present moment. The Grade of the reward depends on your Luck Attribute.]

[Current Universe Points: 10,600.]

[You don't have enough Universe Points to exchange for the weapon you wished for, and till the request proceeds, the Universe Points will be pooled together to satisfy the exchange value for the weapon (Origin Glaive) you wished.]

[Grade-5

(Fire, Water, Wind, Lightning & Darkness) (Elemental Category):

Gives Host the ability to comprehend the 'Thunder Miasma' Element without losing the ability to individually manipulate Fire, Water, Wind, Lightning and Darkness elements and their respective skills. Increases its comprehension speed by five-fold.]

Without even any delay, Jay conjured the 'Penta-Element' into Existence. Unlike the 'Thunder Flame' element, which resembled a burning fire, the 'Thunder Miasma' looked similar to dark clouds before a thunderstorm.

With Jay as the centre, ink-black fog spread within his room. Within that fog, traces of grey thunder could often be seen crackling to and fro.

Whether it was the bed or the furniture, they corroded upon coming in contact with 'Thunder Miasma', leaving behind charred spots in their place.

If Jay hadn't retracted it right away, even the room walls and floor would have been eroded away.

His brief interaction with the new element triggered another set of notifications.

[Congratulations! You have gained Lv.1<Minor Thunder Miasma Mastery> (Stage-1).]

[Lv.1<Minor Thunder Miasma Mastery>: Lv.1 Thunder Miasma-element training methods will be transmitted into your mind.]

[Your Lv.30<Minor Darkness Mastery> is compatible with Lv.15<Minor Thunder Flame Mastery>, do you wish to merge them?]

As usual, Jay accepted it right away.

[Lv.30<Minor Darkness Mastery> + Lv.24<Minor Thunder Flame Mastery> = Lv.20<Minor Thunder Miasma Mastery>]

[Congratulations! You have gained Lv.20<Minor Thunder Miasma Mastery> (Stage-2)]

[Lv.20<Minor Thunder Miasma Mastery>: Lv.20 Thunder Miasma-element training methods will be transmitted into your mind.]

All the relevant knowledge from Lv.1 to Lv.20 flooded into his mind, improving his understanding of the Thunder Miasma with more efficient ways to use it.

It took Jay a few minutes to digest loads of information. With the improved knowledge and control, he let out just a wisp of Thunder Miasma and began to study its properties.

After some experimentation, it was evident that the Thunder Miasma's highly corrosive nature is strong enough to erode even the Spirit Items.

However, the time it takes to erode varies according to the grade of the Spirit Items. If it was a Grade-1 Spirit Item, it could be eroded in just a few seconds.

A Grade-2 Spirit Item takes around a minute, and for a Grade-3 Spirit Item's durability to hit zero, it takes a couple of minutes.

Still, all that wasn't even the important part of Jay's discovery because Thunder Miasma could even erode other Elements and Auras.

Whether it be any Weapon Aura or Martial Aura or any Element, as long as they aren't stronger than Thunder Miasma, they will be eventually eroded upon being in contact with it.

Although it sounds pretty powerful, its practical use in a combat situation couldn't meet Jay's standards since the prerequisite for Thunder Miasma to show its prowess was to be in contact with the target.

Moreover, the movement speed of 'Thunder Flame' and 'Thunder Miasma' elements could be correlated to a Rabbit and a Tortoise, respectively.

Forget about surprise attacks; with how slow the Thunder Miasma element was, Jay's opponents could see his attacks from miles away.

Although that was quite a setback, Thunder Miasma still had a positive side that makes it quite powerful if used in a certain way.

After experimenting for a while, Jay caught on to that point and focused on remedying its weakness.

Before long, Jay found a way for that. It was to spread the Thunder Miasma in the space around him, submerge everything in it, and then use the grey thunderbolts within the ink-black miasma to attack those who stepped within that space.

Within the ink-black miasma, the grey thunderbolts' attack power and attack speed were twice that of 'Thunder Flame' and that too without any extra Spirit Energy consumption to maintain the grey thunderbolts.

Jay named that 'Thunder Miasma Field', and to improve his new move, he wished to practise more, but since the room, Jay was in was a bit small for testing around with his new Innate Talent, he moved downstairs to the common room for more space.

The only ones there were Kasim and Henry. The rest of Earth's Alpha Chosen were in their respective rooms.

Jay asked them both to leave the common room for him to test something, and they did as he asked.

But they both didn't leave the ground floor and watched while standing on the stairs connecting to the first floor.

Whether it be Henry or Kasim, they both were curious as to what Jay wanted to test.

Jay sensed them sneaking but didn't bother with them and expanded 'Thunder Miasma Field' to the confines of the common room without touching the room's floor or walls.

As for the furniture caught within the field, they were eroded into dust or charred into ash upon coming in contact with some of the thunderbolts that were continuously coursing through the miasma.

As the owner of the Penta-Elemental Innate Talent, his own body wasn't affected by Thunder Miasma's corrosive properties nor once got hit by the grey thunderbolts within.

For the next hour, Jay focussed on improving his control over the grey thunderbolts and using it as a barrage of attacks in any direction or orientation he wished.

Once Jay got a hold over it, he moved on to improving the speed at which the Thunder Miasma Field could expand.

That continued for another half hour, and the initial spreading speed of 5 meters per second improved to 6 meters per second.

Although that wasn't a considerable improvement, it was still better than nothing.

With less than half an hour left before the 1st Intermission ended, Jay decided to halt his training and retracted the Thunder Miasma Field from the common room.

Once the room was cleared of the ink-black fog, there were three more people other than Henry and Kasim standing on the stairs connecting to the first floor.

They were Brandon, Sergei and Gabriel. When Jay began training 'Thunder Miasma Field', they felt an odd sensation as if something superior was calling out for their respective elements.

They followed the traces and came downstairs only to find that it was from the strange fog under Jay's control.

It was because, among the five elements that converged to create the Thunder Miasma, Lightning, Darkness and Wind elements were included.

Every new element that Jay had converged since the beginning gave off a sense of superiority to the respective individual elements used to create that said element, and that sensation only grew as time passed.

Upon becoming a Penta-Element, the sense of superiority it gave off had a qualitative change compared to its predecessor, the Tetra-Element, Thunder Flame.

To Brandon, Sergei and the others, it was clear that Jay had become even stronger with the new strange ability and widened the gap between them.

Jay didn't bat his eye at their shocked expressions. He just walked past them and returned to his room without saying anything.

Although the new element improved Jay's overall power, he wasn't all that happy because the excitement from converging a new Innate Talent wasn't able to triumph his disappointment from not being able to get his hands on the Origin Glaive despite having more than 10,000 Universe Points.

That made Jay wonder just how many Universe Points does he need to obtain it….25,000? 50,000? or 100,000?
