'But first!' Kyle thought before charging away.
Gotta Fart!
He opened his mouth and activated his Element Absorption.
As the Lightning Elemental shot towards him, its Energy was leaving it.
During the absorption, Kyle absorbed white and red lightning.
All of these were different kinds of lightning, and all of them came from the Lightning Elemental.
One could categorize Elementals into three categories.
Pure Elementals, Mixed Elementals, and Unusual Elementals.
Pure Elementals only had Elements from one type of Law. For example, a Pure Lightning Elemental would be made up of only lightning belonging to the Level One Law of Lightning.
A Mixed Elemental was made of one category of Elements but of different levels. This Lightning Elemental was a Mixed Elemental since it was a chaotic mix of three different levels of lightning.
An Unusual Elemental was made of different Elements that didn't share a category. For example, there were Rain Elementals as well, which were made of Water and Wind Energy.
In terms of value, an Unusual Elemental was the most valuable, while a Mixed Elemental was the least valuable.
Unusual Elementals were worth a lot since they were very rare and could be used as aids to comprehend Mixed Elemental Complex Laws.
Pure Elementals were very useful as Energy Sources for Formation Arrays, just like Vortexes. They could also help in comprehending Laws.
Mixed Elementals were not that valuable. There was only one thing they were good for.
As Kyle realized that this was a Mixed Elemental, he started to analyze its Composition.
The ratio of its different kinds of lightning was important.
'It seems like it's made of 60% Yin-Lightning, 30% Yang-Lightning, and 10% Major Lightning. That's not too bad. With luck, this thing could be worth a lot of money.'
After avoiding a couple more attacks, the Lightning Elemental turned into a ball of purple lightning.
Thanks to Kyle's powerful Element Absorption, he had consumed all the lower forms of lightning from the Elemental, leaving the 10% of Major Lightning, which was the Level Three Law of Lightning.
By now, the Elemental had become extremely slow.
It had turned into a Pure Elemental of Major Lightning, but it didn't have a lot of Energy.
Right now, its power was only on the level of a new Transcendent.
When Kyle saw that, he grinned.
'Lucky!'
This was the only thing a Mixed Elemental was good for, turning it into a Pure Elemental. The reason why it was less valuable than a natural Pure Elemental was that it would be weakened significantly after being transformed, since it would lose a big chunk of its Energy.
As long as a Mixed Elemental was made of 10% or more of a certain Element, it could be turned into a Pure Elemental of that Element.
Anything less, and the Elemental would collapse into a Vortex.
The next moment, Kyle charged at the Elemental and summoned several powerful pieces of non-conductive metal.
Within an instant, he surrounded the small Elemental with the metal.
Finally, he grabbed the metallic ball and charged away.
Sadly, since this thing had a will, he couldn't store it in his Soul Space.
Well, technically, it was possible to store things with wills in one's Soul Space, but that was like saying it was technically possible to consume a death cap mushroom.
Yeah, you could do it, but only once.
After suppressing the Elemental, Kyle charged away from the metal core of the Planet with all of his speed.
"I found an Elemental!" Kyle quickly spoke into his communicator. "Retreat!"
"Need assistance!" Swamp Dragon transmitted via his communicator. "Retreat! Dangerous!"
"On my way," Kyle answered as he charged towards his team's location.
The communicator could tell him exactly where his teammates were.
They were about 20 seconds away from Kyle.
'Swamp Dragon sounded worried,' he thought as he became nervous. 'I swear, if that comedian is playing another prank on him!'
Kyle charged with his full speed towards his teammates.
Ten seconds later, Kyle's perception picked up something.
It was big!
Due to the extreme storms around him, Kyle's perception was distorted, and he couldn't see the entire thing, but the little thing he saw already told him enough.
It was a fin.
And it was over two kilometers long.
Even more, this was a side fin, not a flipper.
Extremely dense Water and Lightning Energy were flowing across the fin.
'A Crusher Beast,' Kyle thought. 'It can't be a Mid or Late Crusher Beast. Otherwise, we would have already experienced a Dimensional Collapse. That means this is a new Crusher Beast.'
As Kyle felt the extremely dense Energy surrounding the Crusher Beast, he realized one thing.
He couldn't beat this thing.
He had the power to beat new Crushers, but he couldn't beat new Crusher Beasts.
The reason was simple.
Their bodies were just far too durable. He simply didn't have the offensive capabilities to break through their defenses.
Kyle quickly charged past the beast.
Naturally, the beast noticed him, but Kyle had a unique weapon against such powerful beasts.
Karmic Luck.
Having great amounts of Karmic Luck was very important for a Rarity Hunter since they often came into contact with powerful beasts.
The beast ignored Kyle and simply continued doing whatever it was doing.
As Kyle continued, he saw another gigantic fin, but this one was not as big as the previous one.
'Probably a Level Eleven or Twelve Primal Beast.'
Compared to humans, all beasts went through all twelve levels.
As the new beast noticed Kyle, it looked at him for a moment.
Kyle felt just a tiny bit dangerous to it.
Its instincts were sending mixed signals.
It was like seeing slightly poisonous prey.
There was a good chunk of meat on that, but its poison could be troublesome.
Naturally, the poison in this metaphor was Kyle's Karmic Luck.
In the end, the beast decided against attacking Kyle and let him pass.
As Kyle continued moving away from the Planet's metallic core, he found more fins.
Yet, compared to the past fins, these were not relaxed and calmly swimming around.
These fins were desperately flailing around as their owners clashed with each other.
The owners of these fins were also no longer as powerful as the previous ones, and Kyle could finally see their entire bodies.
'Whales,' Kyle thought.
In terms of appearance, they looked like Blue Whales from Earth, but they were purple with a grey underside.
These whales specialized in consuming powerful lightning, which they could also use as their weapon.
BOOOOM!
One whale launched a massive bolt of Yin-Lightning at another whale.
The other whale's skin became dry and unhealthy, but the other whale also launched an attack on the first whale.
Kyle managed to move past them since they were busy.
Yet, he only saw more whales, and as far as he could tell, they were all fighting each other.
Kyle quickly weaved through them, and finally, he saw his teammates.
