1086  Limitlessness

What is limitlessness?

By definition, limitlessness is the definition itself. It is the property of something lacking a limit.

A good example of something lacking a limit would be mana. In terms of limitlessness, it encompasses the concept through its quantity.

After all, the energy seemingly exists in every corner of the universe without ever having a moment where it ran out. In fact, that probably became the reason why it's become the go-to energy type for almost every being throughout the universe.

Another good example of limitlessness would be the concept of immortality, the concept of continuing to live on even when everything ceases to exist.

Comparing it to mana, immortality encompasses a different type of limitlessness, a limitlessness that focuses more on quantity than quality.

With that being said, the concept of limitlessness that Mystic Energy that contains is closer to mana than the concept of immortality, tackling a type of limitlessness that's more dependent on quantity.

However, the type of limitlessness it encompasses isn't the same as mana, where its existence throughout the universe is so prevalent that it is limitless.

Instead, it is the potential that Mystic Energy holds, the ability that Mystic Energy has to accept one's thoughts and have it take form.

After all, how could the energy not be considered limitless in potential if one could throw any idea under the sun at it and have it become a reality?

And that was the concept that fully resonated with the young man.

Whoosh!

Condensing the thoughts that whirred in his mind as he felt it touch upon something greater, Valyr eventually felt the world form a connection with him, causing a smile to faintly appear on his face as he sensed the energy it was sharing.

However, rather than be satisfied with what he'd achieved and stop there, he instead continued to delve deeper, sensing that the truths he'd gleaned while working with Mystic Energy were more than enough for him to push his insights further.

And surprisingly, he was correct this time.

Swoosh!

Having formed his Intent Seed of Mystic Energy with the concept of limitlessness, Valyr decided to focus his subsequent comprehensions around the concept.

At first, the young man was making headway into achieving a deeper level of comprehension regarding the concept. However, at the end, he decided to scratch the concept before proceeding to attack it from a different perspective.

As for the reason why he'd made that decision, it was because Mystic Energy in its current state was not truly limitless in its potential, even if it was the concept he first went with. After all, even if the energy did allow him to throw any idea at it under the sun, there was still one idea that the Mystic Energy rejected every time he tried it, which was to use the energy for attacking.

Then again, even though that was currently the case, the young man had a feeling that he would find a way to make it accept the idea sooner or later, guessing that the fusion between mana and Mystic Energy he was doing would eventually be the key.

Shifting his thoughts away from the concept of limitlessness, Valyr surprisingly did not take long to find another concept that resonated him, which was the parallelism between mana and Mystic Energy.

Delving deeper into a bit, the young man eventually realized that he'd just tackled the concept of limitlessness from another perspective, causing him to wryly smile for a bit before proceeding to continue pondering over his thoughts.

Though it could be said that the two types of energy encompassed the same type of limitlessness, the way in which they tackled the concept of limitlessness was different.

Mana encompassed the concept of limitlessness through how abundant it was throughout the universe, while Mystic Energy encompassed the concept of limitlessness through its potential to accept almost any idea it was given.

Although he did not realize it at first, Valyr realized that the two concepts of limitlessness could be combined as one, prompting him to think about the fusion of mana and Mystic Energy that he'd been attempting before the meeting.

Faintly wondering to himself whether he'd been subconsciously thinking of fusing the two energies together because of this, the young man quickly discarded the thought, instead focusing his attention on the truths that allowed him to deepen his comprehension on the matter.

Whoosh!

With that, Valyr eventually felt his connection with the world deepen yet again, causing the smile on his face to become wider as he felt that there was still a lot of concepts for him to tap into.

In fact, with the thought in mind, it did not take long for him to find yet another concept that resonated with him, being a concept that stuck with him the moment he first discovered what Mystic Energy was capable of.

And that was the juxtaposition it formed with Shadow Energy. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Though the idea came to him while he was using Mystic Energy, it was not the first time he'd come up with the idea.

After all, one of the concepts that allowed his Intent of Shadow Energy to become what it was today was the relationship it had with mana, thinking of it as two sides of the same coin.

However, even though the underlying idea behind the two concepts was similar, the two concepts were still ultimately different from each other.

That was because, while he envisioned Shadow Energy as destruction and chaos and mana as creation and order in the past, he envisioned the relationship between Shadow Energy and Mystic Energy a bit differently.

In his mind, Shadow Energy, and by extension Prime Azure Energy, encompassed pure destruction, while Mystic Energy encompassed pure creation.

Considering the abilities that each type of energy had given him access to, he felt that it was the most apt of describing how the two worked.

And unsurprisingly, the world felt that way as well.

Swoosh!

Pondering over the contrasting concepts of Shadow Energy and Mystic Energy in his mind, it did not take long for Valyr's connection with the world to deepen one last time, causing his smile to turn into a grin as he slowly opened his eyes.

Though he felt like he could still improve his understanding of Mystic Energy one last time with the various thoughts and insights that filled his mind, the young man decided not to do it in the end, feeling like he'd be grasping at the straws if he did.

'In any case, I've definitely gotten farther than I thought I would,' thought the young man to himself, bringing up his notification screen in his mind as he looked at the latest notification he received.

Ding!
