But Gracie believed him somewhat. She remembered when he told her about, how he could cultivate both Qi and soul at the same time.
she knew he wasn't the type to lie. Instead, he would refuse to tell his secrets directly.
It wasn't that they believed it right away but there are things like Harry using Qi and soul energy at the same time which practically should be impossible and reasoning of a impossible thing can't be mundane.
"If you are telling this, then we believe it, but it doesn't explain how you ended up in that situation," Blake Inquired.
"So it was like this, this system doesn't increase my Body cultivation but only increses Qi cultivation. So I had elemental Master level Qi in Foundation building level body," Harry explained.
"So there's always a chance you will explode," Tyler remarked, raising his eyebrows.
"Kind of, It is the cost I have to pay, but now I have a solution at least I think I have," Harry responded.
"Hah, so do you know what element you got?" Gracie curiously Asked.
Typically, it takes time for individuals to know what element they have awakened, and most body elements are passive. But in Harry's case, he can get information through the system.
"Element... I acquired the space element and still don't know about body cultivation," Harry informed them. He still wanted to explore this new Blood element, so he didn't mention it.
Liam, Blake, and Gracie had their mouths agape in astonishment.
The space element is one of the rarest elements.
All the people who awakened the space element have only two paths first, get killed by those who envy their power, or become a supreme power.
But this was only applicable to those who develop this element. Only 1% of people succeed in developing the space element further.
Rare elements are hard to develop further because people have very little data related to the element.
"If I recollect correctly, there is only one major person who was able to master this element in the past. He is the one who made the barrier around the domain with the help of other space element users. His name was Grandmaster Alex," Gracie said, pondering.
Harry already has a cheat code to learn about elements. The only thing he needs to do is increase his level and get stat points.
Having diverse skills is one thing, but higher cultivation helps people put power behind all these skills.
In Logan's case, he had such diverse skills but lacked power behind his elemental abilities.
"We are leaving. I am craving to level up and catch up to you," Liam and Blake said, departing.
"I am also going. I am already lagging behind in cultivation," Tyler said while approaching the door.
"Wait," Harry called out and tapped his badge to Tyler's, swapping their ranks.
"Now you can train on the 3rd level of the tower and catch up to them," Harry said while transferring some credits.
"Don't you want to cultivate on the 3rd floor?" Tyler asked, confused.
"I already told you, I can't cultivate with normal ways," Harry said with a bitter smile.
Tyler, hearing this, didn't pay much attention and left.
Now only Gracie and Harry were there in the room.
"Thank you."
Gracie was flushed hearing this suddenly, causing Gracie to blush.
"Huh... I thought we were friends," Gracie responded, calming down.
"So where is it written that friends can't say thank you?" Harry replied.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward. Silence maintained for several seconds.
"Mmm... I have something to do," Gracie said and exited.
Harry watched her leave.
Before leaving the room, Gracie turned around and stated, "Thank you for giving me friends," and departed.
'What does that mean, giving her friends? Is she talking about Liam, Tyler, and Blake? Now thinking of it, she did mention that she doesn't have many friends,' Harry pondered. Before he could think further about it, his focus switched to the system screen.
[Stat points - 26]
As he had thought, he increased the level of Hemokinesis, which cost him 2 stat points and insignificant pain.
[Congratulations, Hemokinesis has leveled up]
[Hemokinesis - level 2
Manipulate blood flow within the body, able to stop minor bleeding.]
[Upgrade - 5 stat points]
Although the information in the system was vague, he could already tell what things he could do with its improved version.
He could flow his blood as he wanted, and by flowing it in a particular way, he could boost his stamina and control bleeding.
It was not as advantageous as the space barrier, so he surmised that this element was a common one.
[Stat points - 24]
Now there were 24 stat points left. Unlocking a new skill would cost 10 stat points, and increasing already available skills would cost 5 stat points.
After consideration, he made a decision.
[Congratulations, Space barrier has leveled up]
[Space barrier - level 3
Form multiple barriers simultaneously to protect different areas or allies.]
[Upgrade - 10 stat points]
Seeing this, he was happy and annoyed at the same time.
It had provided a significant boost to the skill.
Now he could form stronger multiple barriers that could defend against most types of attacks except mind attacks.
But the system had increased the cost of the next upgrade to 10 stat points.
He only had 19 stat points remaining, so he decided to acquire a new skill in the space element.
[Congratulations, you have acquired the 'pocket dimension' skill]
[Pocket dimension - level 1
Create a small, personal storage space in another dimension for storing items.
Upgrade - 5 stat points]
[new skill - 20 stat points]
'Oh, so this is how someone can make spatial rings and spatial items,' Harry realized when all the information related to this skill came to his mind.
Now there were only 9 stat points left.
He had two options first, he could increase the Hemokinesis skill, second the pocket dimension skill.
He decided to enhance the level of Hemokinesis.
[Congratulations, Hemokinesis has leveled up]
[Hemokinesis - level 3
Control blood outside the body, shape into simple forms.]
[Upgrade - 10 stat points]
He wanted to try out something, so he made a cut on his palm and let the blood drop to the floor.
Then, only with his thoughts, the blood started taking shape in the air,a sharp knife, but he realized blood needed to be more condensed, so he allowed it to consume more of his blood. When he finished, he clotted his blood so no further blood escaped. It was and very strange feeling, he could feel every part of his body.
Every place where the blood was channeling stopping the blood from dripping down he just focused on the point of injury where he could feel the blood rushing to come out of the sliced skin but focusing more he frozen the path of blood.
Now after dealing with the blood problem he grabbed the knife made of blood. It was bright red with black stain in it which was giving an omeneous feeling.
He mimicked knife movements.
He realised this knife can be used as normal knife but it's far from being a battle knife. He can use this knife for cutting vegetable but cutting Qi inforced skin is impossible.
But then who wants to cut vegetables with a bloody knife.
there was an advantage, he could control things made of his blood with his thoughts, as if he had telekinesis.
He considered that if he improved this skill to the next level, he could make more complex things. Such as cages.
It had more functionality than purely strength-based skills. Now it all depended on Harry's brilliance and how creatively he could utilize this skill.
But to use this skill, he would need to make a cut or have adequate blood on the field to use it.
