Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"Karma?!! Is there such a spirit element?!!!" Thomas was shocked, and he showed another expression over his face.

He had never heard of such an element before. And that made him more doubtful towards what William just said.

"There are time and space elements, so why won't there be karma?" William examined the crystal once more, trying to find anything special there, but found none.

So, he stored the crystal in his ring, in a move that left Thomas disappointed. He wanted to see what William saw. He wanted to find answers in that crystal for the tons of questions about what his master just claimed.

But his habit overwhelmed his curiosity and desire and returned to being silent.

"I believe you don't have any formal technique, right?" Thomas didn't know even what element his spirit had, and that made William's earlier guess get confirmed.

"I got something that one of my masters bought for me at a hefty price," Thomas paused, "it's a time-based technique, to enable me to see clearer and use my ability better. However…"

"You are smart enough to know it wasn't helping you, but limiting your abilities," Thomas nodded on what William just said.

"My spirit element is something I never heard about before. So, trying to find a suitable technique for it…"

"Don't mind that, I got one here that perfectly suits you," William decided to use just one technique for this kid at the moment. It was a technique that would let him see any karma relationship between different things and items, the technique William needed Thomas to master before going towards his territory.

William took out this technique and handed it over to the stupefied Thomas.

"This… This isn't some sort of joke, right?" Thomas felt like everything was too good to be true. William told him about a spirit element he never heard about before. And now his master had developed a technique suitable for this element.

"Do you take me for such a master?" William raised one eyebrow and didn't say anymore. He just handed the scroll over to Thomas, and the latter didn't have any option but to read it.

And just from the incantation at its beginning, Thomas felt like something was sleeping inside his spirit, like some sort of a beast, and it got unleashed.

"This…" he showed a true awed expression on his face, and William laughed from the side, feeling more satisfaction by this.

"Just start training," William waved his hand, "we will leave once you master it."

"Leave? To where?"

"To where but to my new territory?"

"This… Master… This place… It's cursed!" Thomas was acting as if he never cared about anything in the world, but for his life he'd care for sure about everything.

So when he heard what William intended to do, his stone-cold face broke and showed tons of emotions.

Fear, doubt, confusion, hesitation… He showed these and more.

"Don't worry," William pointed towards the scroll in his hands, "or why would I take the trouble to test your spirit element and give you such a suitable technique?"

"This…"

"You'll see things by yourself later on," William interrupted this youth, "just start training, and leave the future for when it'll happen."

Thomas was more hesitant than any time ever in his entire life. Even when he moved from the hands of one master to another, he never felt such uncertainty or insecurity.

But from the look of things, his new master was dauntless in front of that scary cursed place. And he felt that if he stayed all day trying, he wouldn't be able to budge William an inch away from his decision.

So he reluctantly started to train on this technique, trying to guess what it had with that scary place.

The technique was simple, and it was just allowing Thomas to use his spirit element in the right path it should take.

Thomas got the karma spirit element, so it made perfect sense for a technique to make him see the relationship between different things using karma.

And that was what this technique was all about. William knew this technique was simple, only needed to repeat the incantation a few times, move one's hands in different sets of movement, before it'd get activated.

As Thomas was busy training and learning his new technique, William took one side, used an isolation array, before he started to take the forty something dark spirit master rings he claimed before.

He was quite busy dealing with activating his spirit and ended up having that unexpected trouble from those lackies and henchmen of the Big Seven. And now he got the chance to go slowly through everything inside these rings.

"These dudes… Are they preparing for a big war or what?" Just like what he found at the other rings he got before, these rings were filled with tons of gears.

The gear sets were large in number, mainly bronze and silver in grade. This time, he found few gold grade sets of gears, enough to make him crave to use any of these.

But he didn't! Just using the silver grade gears placed lots of pressure over his spirit power. He knew he had to wait until he'd reach silver grade before thinking about using such a high-grade gears.

There were also many war consumables, and potions. He also found lots of spirit crystals, enough to be close to one hundred thousand in each ring.

That was a huge amount of wealth at his academy. But comparing such wealth to this fort, he realised it wasn't that much.

"At least I gained close to four million spirit crystals from them," William started to move everything in these rings to the ones he usually used. He left the gear sets he acquired to be stored with other gear sets he gained before. And that made him have enough gears to arm up at least ten thousand spirit masters from head to toe.

This wasn't bad. At least he didn't need to buy any gears for his future teams.

"Now… What we have here…"
