Chapter 41: The Shadow form
Scrounger Assassin art: Scently proboscis( phase 1) - A type of assassin skill in which the user acquires the target's aroma and stores it in the small part of the Brain that works to identify the smell and target position.
(Aroma fade duration: 6 days)
(Brain storing capacity: 1 person aroma)
(Maximum target distance: 20 KM)
A satisfied look emerges in Kritos expression, but he doesn't have time to enjoy the moment. He has to chase and track down his elder brother's position. But before this, Kritos needs some assassin skills to approach Sanju without noticing him.

10 minutes ago…
When Sanju was conversing with Kritos, the situation arose where Kritos had to leave the forest. Kritos made a plan to follow Sanju from the shadows.
At the same time, Kritos decided to create a skill that could track his elder brother's location. While Sanju was preparing for his new adventure, Kritos silently began to create a skill and a way to hide the pain after obtaining the skill information in his brain.
***
Present time…
Kritos hazily viewed the screen where he had described a skill. However, He was somewhat reluctant to lose such an amount of SP. Kritos was collecting a large amount of SP from the beginning so that there would be no problem while creating his super soul beast.
But the circumstance leads him to use more SP frequently.
Kritos once again glanced at the described skill,
[A skill in which the user would hide his presence from the rank one foundation warrior realm cultivator.]
"Tsk! Is there no way to create this skill without losing this amount of SP?" Kritos frustratedly asks
[Ding…]
[No, normal conceal type, and camouflage type skill needs qi for activation and functioning. Whereas to conceal the host presence from rank one foundation warrior, the host would need top-grade skill.]
Listening to the words of System, Kritos could only grit his teeth.
Earlier, when Kritos tried to create this skill with 20SP, a small system notification popped above the previous screen—stating the issues generated by this skill.
[ ---------------Error 101---------------]
~ Can't detect qi or any energy in the host body.
~ Can't create a high-grade skill with this lowly amount of SP
[----------------Error 101---------------]
Kritos shook his head in frustration; there is only a way to solve these two issues- by SP!
A huge amount of SP!
As it required for the skill to be a high grade and natural trait so that it would be fulfilled Kritos demand. But, It expenses a large amount of SP to create this skill.
With a reluctant mind, Kritos gloomily set the SP bar for this skill from 20 to 82.
[Ding…]
[Creating skill…Loading…]
"If it is even 1 cent less compared to my expectation. I will... directly deny the skill." Kritos declared in his thought
Before Kritos declare more statement, he heard a voice in his mind
[System prompt...]
[Mid Sky grade skill(Pure energy~10x): The unnoticeable shadow form]
[The unnoticeable shadow form: A pure energy type skill that lets the user break the fundamental laws of nature and become one with nature. Disguise yourself as a nature essence and conceal yourself from the above two higher realm cultivators. 50% extra movement speed at this state. ~ using other skill in this state will cancel conceal mode automatically~]
"...Pure energy?"
Kritos blinked his eyelid for a second, " What is this? Isn't this skill overpowered at only peak earth grade? ...and System, even allot a bonus on it."
Kritos wanted to ask about the Pure energy stuff, but before he says, a familiar voice rings in his head.
[Ding…]
[Do the host want to obtain this skill for 70 SP?]
Putting the question aside, As there is no time to initiate a Q& A series with the system.
Kritos quickly replied, " Confirm." He doesn't have much time to spend.
Kritos can sense the distance between him and his elder brother with his skill, which is broadening with each passing second.
[Uploading The unnoticeable shadow form skill in the host brain]
[Uploading: 10%...]
[Uploading: 88%...]
[Uploading completed: 100%]
As Kritos heard the System voice of 100%. All of a sudden, a lot of information about the control and use of pure energy rushed into his mind, making Kritos scream in agony.
"Argggggg…" Kritos screamed in pain. This time the information subsists of many unknown words and actions. The knowledge of the profound understanding of Pure energy keeps circulating in his brain, making his head feel dizzy.
Kritos clenched his teeth in suffering; he kept resisting his body from collapsing into the ground. Nonetheless, the unknown data assaulted the back portion of his brain. Ultimately, his heated body falls on the dirt.
After 5 minutes…
"Huh...huh…" Kritos takes a deep breath after calming his chaotic mind. He doesn't want to remember the feeling of being tortured by many small needles.
The knowledge of pure energy is still a mystery for Kritos. He doesn't understand much about it even after gaining considerable information about Pure energy. He felt like he was missing a vital component in it.
Regardless of anything, Kritos don't have time to mingle about it.
Kritos instantly activated the skill < The unnoticed shadow form >
The surrounding habitat proceeds to enclosed Kritos body. Suddenly, all the matter in the atmosphere mixed into Kritos body, tearing anything which stood in between Kritos body surface and the essence of nature.
In a second of time, Kritos full nude image exposed in front of nature, his clothes were entirely ripped apart into small pieces.
However, Kritos all attention was on his body textures, which had mixed one with nature. Now, He can sense familiarity with the surroundings, like he is a part of it.
He tried to equip clothes on his body, but shortly after a second, the clothes were torn apart and vaporized into the surroundings.
Kritos sighs as he guessed the reason; he looked at the far distance and silently murmured, " It Looks I have to travel like this."
With a puff, Kritos leaped towards a specific direction, " Hey, elder brother, you can't easily get rid of me." Kritos smirks while running at full speed*.
