Chapter 1274: Modulation With Focus

At the current range of the Aspect of Heaviness, Lin Mu would find it impossible to use. But if he managed to reduce it or limit, it effects only certain parts of his body, he might still be able to make use of it.

"Hmm I can certainly reduce the range of it." Lin Mu said after resting for a bit.

He stood up and targeted one of the many stones that were lying around after his previous actions. The stone was about half an inch in size and was mixed with several tens of other stones of varying sizes.

With a little focus, Lin Mu effectively targeted only one out of the many others.

~TACK~

A faint sound was heard as the stone tilted on its broken edge before rolling down the bent ground. It was evident that the increased weight had finally made it move and also confirmed Lin Mu's guess.

"Well no issues in controlling a small area by reducing the range." Lin Mu nodded his head. "But this is for an independent object. Will this apply to only a part of the object?" he wondered.

Lin Mu continued his trials, and it took him a few hours before he actually managed to reduce the effect to only a part of an object.

"This is a lot more difficult to control. If I lose focus for even a second, it spreads all over the object." Lin Mu muttered to himself before wiping away the sweat from his nose.

It took Lin Mu hundreds of tries; he be had finally managed to reduce the effective area of the Dao Skill. Albeit he could only maintain the control for about five seconds. But five seconds was more that's enough for him to use it on his body.

~Huu~

"Let's try it on my body now. That's the main goal after all." Lin Mu perked himself up.

He focused on his fist before activating the Dao skill.

~BANG~

"s.h.i.+T!" Lin Mu was unable to handle the sudden increase in the weight and fell down, hitting the ground and cracking it once more.

His right fist was like a sledgehammer pounding a new hole into the ground.

'Need to do it again This time be a little more prepared.' Lin Mu thought to himself as he deactivated the Dao Skill.

He tried it all again, but didn't fall like last time.

"There we go that's better." Lin Mu gazed at his hand, that was lightly glowing in a brown and yellow light.

The affected area of his hand was only till his wrist, thus Lin Mu could now use it freely. And unlike before, when he felt like all his organs were being torn, it didn't feel painful at all.

Other than some discomfort due to the increased weight, Lin Mu was fine.

After all, the weight of his fist was a lot lower than the weight of his entire body, even if it had been increased by ten times.

Having felt it properly for the first time, Lin Mu c.o.c.ked back his arm and punched out.

~WHOOSH~

Just the sheer force of the hand pushed away the air, creating a draft that made dust fly around him.

"Mmm I'll test out the specifics outside. Doing here is a little too much." Lin Mu said as he looked around at the damage that had been spread in his residence.

Thankfully, his bedroom was still spared, so it didn't matter. But Lin Mu didn't want to go too far and make the entire place collapsed. It was already doubtful with the ten meter deep hole that had been made in the floor.

The cracks from it were already spreading all around the area.

~HAAA~

Lin Mu let out a tired breath and decided to just rest for the day.

"I'll do the test on controlled and owned objects tomorrow." Lin Mu said before dragging himself to the bedroom.

He fell asleep quickly and appeared in the Sleepscape.

~SHUA~

But just as he did, he felt a gust of wind covering his body.

"Wait for a second this isn't wind this is Wood attribute spirit Qi?" Lin Mu felt a refres.h.i.+ng feeling coming from the wind.

It swiftly entered his body and made him feel a lot more comfortable. Even the fine ache that he still felt in his body was being wiped away with it.

'It wasn't like this the last time I came here' Lin Mu was surprised.

It had been a few months since Lin Mu had entered the Sleepscape. The last time he entered it was long before he had that dream, which filled him with an unknown desire. Since that day, he couldn't bring himself to sleep normally.

Only now when he felt a little accomplished with his breakthrough and the exhaustion did he feel comfortable enough to enter it.

"Still this is rather nice." Lin Mu smiled and looked around.

The gra.s.s on the ground was lush green while the few plants in the Sleepscape were almost bursting with vitality. The spirit apple tree close to Lin Mu was covered with tens of Spirit apples.

Its leaves were a vibrant green while its branches swayed lightly in the air.

"The number of spirit apples seems to have increased once more. The Wood elemental spirit apples have basically more than doubled." Lin Mu noticed.

He then turned around and looked in the distance, spotting the other two plants in the Sleepscape.

The Wood Spirit Tulip was growing nicely and the flower on top of it had become even larger. Its petals released a faint fragrance that soothed one's senses while its leaves absorbed the Wood elemental spirit Qi from the air.

From all sides, the Wood Spirit Tulip seemed to be enjoying its life.

~rustle~

Lin Mu heard a rustling sound and looked opposite from the Wood Spirit Tulip.

"Oh? When did you become so big?" Lin Mu saw the Purple Sickle Amaranth, having almost tripled in size.

It absorbed the attribute-less spirit Qi from the air and let out Wood elemental spirit Qi, nouris.h.i.+ng the life here.
