章 182: [Hydroburst]

The days that followed were a blur of intense concentration and unrelenting practice. 

Lassim spent every waking moment refining his technique, determined to reduce the number of attempts needed to successfully activate the explosive attack. 

He quickly realized that, thankfully, he didn't need to release the skill and cause an explosion every time.

Instead, he could practice by dispersing the mana before it reached critical mass. This way, he could reset and try again without the destructive consequences.

Dispersing the built-up mana also proved beneficial in another way. It allowed Lassim to practice his control over the water mana particles' dense structure, maintaining their stability under pressure. Each failure became a lesson, each successful formation a step closer to mastery. 

Gradually, he brought the number of successful activations down to one in every three hundred attempts.
