Eventually, Shang returned to the real world.

Linay quickly noticed that Shang's dormant Spirit Sense was finally moving again after over 500 years, and she released a sigh of relief.

Was he finally done?

"How much time has passed?" Shang asked.

"A bit more than 500 years," she answered.

'That means I'm about 2,900 years old, leaving me with only 2,100 years," Shang thought.

"What about the ore?" Shang asked.

"Everything has been gathered," Linay answered. "Due to the value, I thought it would be better not to let it get delivered to this place. Everything's waiting in the Lightning Manor."

Shang nodded. "Then, let's return."

"You've comprehended the Concept of Temperatures?" Linay asked.

"Yes," Shang answered.

Linay just nodded.

She knew that a couple of Concepts became more difficult based on their connections, and the Concept of Temperatures was one of them.

A couple of people wanted to combine several Elements, but the combining of Concepts always became more and more difficult to comprehend.

Most people focused on only one Element since they also only had one Affinity, but there were also some people that focused on two. Nearly every Cloud trained in at least two Elements.

However, there were also a few people that focused on three Elements.

A good example would be Space, Time, and Gravity.

To combine them, one needed three Concepts. Spacetime, Timegravity, and Gravityspace.

With these Concepts, the power of all three increased by a bit.

Naturally, these Concepts weren't the priority since the small increase in power often wasn't worth the effort. People often only focused on these mixed Concepts when they were already Ancestral Mages or Mage Lords.

There was also a popular mix of Water, Ice, and Wind, which needed the Concepts of States, Snow, and Steam.

Naturally, all four of Shang's Concepts were known. People knew about Temperatures, Twilight, Addition, and Subtraction, but people never focused on all four of them.

The reason was their longevity.

Focusing on three Elements meant equally increasing their power so that none of the three fell behind the other two.

This took a lot of effort for only a small increase in Battle-Strength relative to others.

And four Elements?

Nah.

Forget it.

Too much work.
