BXBX NOVEL Chapter 126 125: Infinity Crystals
\'Well, I was also like him when I was young. A spatial crack pulled me and teleported me to a world of cultivation.\'
The Paragon Ancestor thought then he continued speaking:
"There are nine elements. Fire, water, wind, earth, ice, lightning, metal, wood and magma.
A Supreme can have an affinity for one or more elements, and if a Supreme has an affinity for that element, that Supreme can control it better than any other being, even if the person is said to have an extremely high affinity towards that element.
If there\'s a genius of let\'s say, the dragons and that dragon genius is said to have the highest level of affinity towards the lightning element, his affinity can never come close to a Supreme that also has an affinity towards the lightning element, unless under some conditions which I would not explain or we would spend forever here.
You can find them out on your own in the future, right now I\'ve told you about the basic ability of a Supreme, and you\'ve also seen how Supremes look like."
The Paragon Ancestor spoke and Corey nodded slightly causing the Paragon Ancestor to nod back slightly while stroking his chin for a few seconds before he spoke:
"Now, the ability which I passed unto every Paragon descendant is having a high resistance corresponding to the type of elemental infinity crystal they possess."
"Please stop.I don\'t understand.
You said there are only nine elements and poison is not one of them. So why do you say elemental infinity crystals when I have a poison infinity crystal in my solar plexus?"
Corey asked with a confused expression and the Paragon Ancestor sighed.
"This is why I hate teaching. You know I feel like just giving you your rewards without explaining a single thing to you then I\'ll just send you back.
This is so stressful."
The Paragon Ancestor sighed and Corey remained silent, not saying anything in response.
"Infinity crystals is actually quite difficult to explain to you.
Just know that there are numerous types of infinity crystals like the fire infinity crystal, water infinity crystal, lightning infinity crystal, saber infinity crystal, spear infinity crystal, chain infinity crystal and so on.
There are also levels to infinity crystals.
The first level is mortal infinity crystal which is actually for tier 0 individuals, the second level is called astral infinity crystal which is for tier 1-3, the third level is called mystic infinity crystal for tier 4-6 and the fourth level is called immortal infinity crystal for tier 7-9 individuals. There\'s one more level but for your own good, it\'s better you don\'t know."
The Paragon Ancestor said but Corey had a confused expression and was about to speak but the Paragon Ancestor seeing that, quickly put a zipping motion on his lips, signaling Corey to zip whatever questions he had.
"Yes, I know you have questions and you will get the answers in the future when you leave this place.
You\'re not getting it from me because from there you\'ll ask more questions and this would be a never ending question and answer session."
The Paragon Ancestor explained but Corey felt slightly unhappy about the implications of his words, and with him wanting more information, he tried to speak but just as he was about to speak, the Paragon Ancestor snapped his fingers and Corey realized that the words he spoke could not be heard.
His brows furrowed in slight anger and frustration but the Paragon Ancestor ignored it and continued speaking:
"Now what I meant by a Paragon having a high resistance corresponding to the elemental infinity crystal or crystals they possess was this.
If one of my descendants has a fire infinity crystal, they would develop fire resistance which would keep on increasing as they keep on getting stronger.
I don\'t want to start explaining how the resistance works, so you\'ll find out that on your own."
The Paragon Ancestor spoke as he looked at Corey who had an indifferent expression with his arms folded.
Not caring about Corey\'s expression, the Paragon Ancestor continued speaking:
"Now that I\'ve given you a brief explanation of the history between Paragons and Supremes, infinity crystals and the abilities of Paragons and Supremes, I want to tell you how you would progress in the future."
The Paragon Ancestor paused then with a complicated light in his eyes which was not noticed by Corey, the Paragon Ancestor sighed then spoke:
"Now, Paragons cannot progress the way other races progress. It\'s more… dangerous."
Corey tilted his head slightly to the left, his expression showing a confused but calm expression.
"If you remember, I said that your Universal System wouldn\'t recognize you as a tier 1 being because I\'m going to tweak a few things without that bastard noticing."
The Paragon Ancestor said and Corey had raised brows.
"I\'m tweaking it so that you wouldn\'t be found out by the Universal System that you\'re a weak half-Paragon."
The Paragon Ancestor said and Corey\'s lips twitched.
"Anyway, the thing is that when your Universal System doesn\'t recognize you as a tier 1 being, it would give you a list of classes to choose from, so in a way, it\'s more power for you.
Just take it as this, the Paragon trial was a trial to change your race and the Universal System would later give you a list of suitable classes you can choose from."
The Paragon Ancestor said and Corey raised his brows slightly in surprise.
He was happy.
More power for him was good.
The Paragon Ancestor knowing what was going on through Corey\'s mind, shook his head softly but continued speaking:
"So, like I said before, the way you progress as a Paragon, you tier up is more… dangerous."
The Paragon paused then sighed:
"If you want to reach the next tier, you need an infinity crystal to reach the next tier, but since infinity crystals are not cheap cabbages that can be found everywhere, there\'s another method for Paragons to progress.
You\'ll have to take the tribulations of hell every time you want to tier up."
