When they reached the library Ye Mo went to a book shelf, he reached up and grabbed a large dusty journal on the top shelf. He pulled it off the shelf and handed it to Ryuu as he said “I thinks its time for you to have this.”
“What is this?” asked Ryuu as he grabbed and inspected the book, but was confused to see the whole cover, front and back where blank.
“This is your fathers journal” said Ye Mo
A little confused Ryuu said “Fathers journal? What do you mean, I already have my fathers Key journal.”
“Ah, yes you do. But the Key journal is simply a reference guide for alchemy formulas, inscription patterns, and language translations its like a reference or “key” if you would. He used the key to help him study and remember the other books and scrolls in the library. But this is your fathers cultivating journal it has all of his personal techniques and inscription patterns, this should be consider a treasure of its own.” Said Ye Mo in a serious tone.
Ryuu was confused as he flipped open the journal to the first page. It was titled Element – Darkness, Ryuu was speechless as he skimmed the first page. On that one page alone was four different advanced shadow techniques.
Ye Mo smiled at Ryuu as he said “I can tell by the look in your eyes you agree.”
“Definitely!” Replied Ryuu who was already sitting at a desk flipping through Pages as he study the incredible techniques.
As he continued to flip he became a little confused, in his fathers journal there were techniques for all the elements. He narrowed his brows as he asked Ye Mo “I thought you said this was my dads personal techniques, so why are there ones for every element?”

“Every element? I think your mistaken my boy, there’s no light techniques.” Replied Ye Mo casually.
“So you’re telling me my father could control six elements?” Asked Ryuu anxiously.
“Why of course, if your father wouldn’t have died he would have been the 2nd Elemental Sage.” As he continued, “Being a direct descendant of the Elemental sage, just like your father you have the potential to become the 2nd Elemental Sage.” Said Ye Mo as he roared.
“The 2nd Elemental Sage” repeated Ryuu quietly as his lips slowly curled into a smile. Just then he flipped to a page in his fathers journal titled ‘Qi and element control.’
The page was explaining how to master different elements, which involves knowing the different qi natures and how to manipulate your qi to each nature. Ryuu sat motionless for a long time as he studied the page. After a while Ye Mo returned to his cage in Ryuu’s soul realm, while Ryuu continued to study.
After a few hours of practice he was able to change his qi nature and has started to learn air style.
For the next few days he continued to practice his wind style and started to learn advanced fukusū attacks (combination attacks), combining wind with his shadow and fire style techniques.
He continued to meditate and train as the time to leave drifted closer and closer.
