"Elemental Energy Transformation. Amazing" mumbled Lex in awe of what he was reading.

He would change the schematics of his body to match the characteristics of the elemental energy form he was using, as his body became one with the element.

Its advantages were incredible and each element had different characteristics that the user would gain and it would also allow the user to learn to use the elemental energies around them without using their own energy.

However, it also had backlash and conditions that it depended upon and wasn't invincible and as easy as it seemed, just like everything else.

If the user's body was not able to handle the synthesis with the elemental energy that they were attempting to entwine with, the user's body would forcefully burn its energy, blood essence, vitality and anything else it could, to sustain the link with the elemental energy.

It also required there to be an abundance of the elemental energy around the user, and if there wasn't enough energy of the element that the user was attempting to synthesize with, the Elemental Energy Transformation would not work.

The most important condition that must be met was that the user must be willing and accepting of the elements without using force or resistance, which would cause the user extreme backlash and may even harm the user's spiritual roots, making them unable to use their elemental affinity ever again.

Not only that, it also required the user to not have any other elemental energies within their body otherwise they would clash and cause severe backlash to the user.

Lex, after thoroughly reading everything and understanding everything within the Heaven Mortal Ranked section of the Elemental Ascension Method, was excited to try out his first External Cultivation Application.

"The first element I will try this out with is the land element which is most abundant around me and also described as the easiest element to use the Elemental Energy Transformation with" decided Lex as he jumped up.

The land element was described as the easiest element for the Elemental Energy Transformation as the user would most likely be standing on Land and could channel the elemental energy into themselves through their feet easily.

After reaching a mutual understanding and link with the element, after streaming the elemental energy into their Elemental Body, the user could attempt to use the Elemental Energy Transformation.

However, for the first time testing it out, it specifically instructed to take time to understand the feeling and mutual understanding with the element as it coexisted with the user and user became one with the elements around them.

The element would become part of them, and they should make sure not to rush as it was a new process that required practice.

Lex took deep breaths of the scarce air and regulated his body's energy to a calm state, then stood in a balanced horse stance.

"Time to attempt the first step. Stream the elemental energy into the body and find a mutual balance with the elemental energy that I can handle, but is enough to initiate and sustain the Elemental Energy Transformation" stated Lex to himself.

Using his affinity with the land element, and feeling that the land he stood on was abundant in energy, Lex allowed the energy to flow into his body through his feet.

The land energy streaming around his body wasn't absorbed into his body and Lex didn't attempt to control it, allowing it to flow freely through his body.

After 20 minutes of flowing the land elemental energy into and around his body, Lex was ready for the next step.

"Use the abundant amount of the elemental energy now within the body and become one with that specific element as all your energy and your Elemental Body changes to match the element you are attempting to use the Elemental Energy Transformation with" stated Lex to himself, finding it easier to control and follow through the steps while instructing himself.

Lex allowed the land elemental energy within him to fuse with his body and transform his own energy, that seemed to be unique and matched every element, into the land element energy, as he felt himself becoming more and more in-sync with the land element.

His unique energy that could change into whatever element he needed and wasn't restricted to a single element, made it so that Lex was capable of using the Elemental Energy Transformation, as without it he wouldn't be able to reach an entwined state with the elements that would clash with each other.

It took Lex another 10 minutes to transform all is energy to match the land elemental energy that was coursing through his body and as he did so he felt the energies fusing with each other, then settling around his body.

"Final step, fuse the body with the element and allow the element to become a part of your body for the time that it is activated and also allow your body to become a part of the element" stated Lex through clenched teeth as he felt his body feeling as if it was being torn internally because of the strain of the large amounts of elemental energy that was rushing into him.

Lex activating his Elemental Vision could see large amounts of the brown land energy entering his body and looking down at his body, he completely matched it in colour.

"So this is the Land Elemental Energy Form" observed Lex, seeing his body seemingly becoming completely formed of land energy.

Lex allowed the transformation to settle before he tested out its power, knowing how important it was for his body and mind to stay balanced if he wanted not to cause himself backlash.

After what felt like another ten minutes there was a sudden surge of energy within his body as he felt the power and formation of the Land Elemental Energy Form had settled and completed.

Lex felt as though he was part of the land bellow his feet and had become one with the land elemental energy all around him in the air as he breathed the energy in and out of his body, that had become part of him.

"Incredible" he mumbled in awe.

He hadn't visibly changed, but he now had a thin brown aura coating his body as his body was completely in sync with the land elemental energy around him.

Clenching his fist he felt his body had extreme power.

Withdrawing a blade from his inventory, without wielding the spacial element and relying on the system to do so, as he didn't want the use of the Spacial Element to clash with the Land Element, and he held the blade in his right hand.

Slashing down with all his strength at his left arm, Lex was shocked when he saw the blade shatter from the impact and only leaving a small scratch on is left arm.

"I have become as might and sturdy as the land itself" exclaimed Lex.

He was wondering what else the Land Elemental Energy Form granted him and allowed him to do other than massively boosting his defence.

As he did so, he didn't realise that his body was sinking into the ground and since his body had become one with the land element, his body could move through the land element with ease and was a part of it.

Looking down, Lex was initially scared as his heart and mind wavered slightly, which shook the base of the Elemental Energy Transformation, but calming down, he felt as though he wasn't being swallowed by the land, but was merely flowing through it like the energy flowed through his body.

[What an incredible sensation] thought Lex to himself as he seemed to act with the land how energy acted with his body.

While he was absent-mindedly thinking about what else the Land Elemental Energy Form would allow him to do, Lex had accidentally stumbled upon another application of the Land Elemental Energy Form, other than body hardening, but relinquishing the control of his body that had become part of the land element.

Taking a deep breath and allowing himself to be swallowed up by the ground, Lex underground felt as though he was surrounded by the warmth of the land element that had entwined with Lex's body.

[This will be my ultimate escaping technique where I can hide underground] stated Lex within his mind, feeling comfortable underground.

Trying to move his body, Lex found that it was very easy and the land didn't give him much resistance as it moved around him and allowed him to move freely.

However, it was less of movement and more of flowing though. Lex felt as though he was floating through a warm swamp that was allowing him to move around freely, but he was actually a part of the land while in the Land Elemental Energy Form.

Lex was unsure of how quickly he was moving, so moved up to the surface, which was easier than he had expected.

"Time to experiment with this Land Elemental Energy Form" stated Lex to himself, in awe of the new ability he had gained.
