章節 239: An Optimal Path

After having warned the other two Daedalus went over the best way he could find with them. As the technique had called them meridians Daedalus took that and began to find the others. In the end Daedalus had discovered that it was basically another nervous system, but instead it would send energy from one part of the body to another.

So after finding all of them within himself he asked Danforth and Rudra "How many have you two found?"

Danforth smiled and said "Thirty five, what about you two?"

Rudra sighed "Twenty nine."

Daedalus chuckled lightly and said "A few hundred, they're so interconnected that I might need a while to find my optimal path, so you two should start with yours."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few minutes later Danforth and Rudra could be seen gathering energy within their Dantian while Daedalus was still meditating on his optimal path. He had a feeling that each person had a varying number of meridians so it could very well be that the others had found all of theirs.

This let Daedalus know that, though he would have a harder time getting started he would get much greater benefits at the same stage. So Daedalus continued on his goal to find his optimal path with determination.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

An hour or so later Daedalus opened his eyes with a smile on his face. He had found the optimal path that he was looking for. So without worrying to much Daedalus began to absorb the energy surrounding him and controlled it to go along the optimal path before ending in his Dantian.

Once he gathered enough energy in his Dantian Daedalus began to compress it and over the course of a few hours created his first Tether. It had been easier for Daedalus as he had previously cultivated which would mean that he had a better control than most with the energy.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was now morning and Daedalus opened his eyes to find that both Rudra and Danforth where awake and seemed to be filled with energy. This made Daedalus smile as he realised that the two had likely also formed their own Mortal Tethers in the previous night.

Before he could speak to them however a sound startled then into looking to the left. A man stood a few metres away from them. He had Golden green hair and yellow eyes but what made them realise just what he was, where his two slightly longer ears that ended in a point. The man was an elf and, based off of how he had gotten so close, he was strong.

When Daedalus looked at him he felt a strange feeling in his chest and tilted his head slightly before the man said "So you are an elf. Or more specifically a half elf, half dwarf."

Daedalus looked surprised as the elf deducted what he was but could tell that the man meant no ill will. So he nodded and said "Yes I am a half elf and half dwarf. We have just arrived here from another world so we where going to stay here for a while, would that be alright?"

The elf couldn't help but laugh before saying "You are clearly of royalty, if you would please follow me I will take you to the city within this forest."
