Reincarnated as an Energy with a System-Novel

A bolt of lightning flew past Ning and hit the ground behind him. A wave of fire spread everywhere in front of him and hit him. Roots appeared from the ground, wrapping him and constricting him to that place.

Spears of water flew at him, as well as thorns that seemed to have poison in them. Scythes of wind hit him, intending to cut him as well.

Similarly, dozens of attacks flew at him from the people that were all enhanced due to the blood of the beasts.

"These are all skills of beasts, aren't they?" Ning wondered. Based on the attacks and the different body structures the people in the cave had, Ning could tell that all of them had multiple different beast bloodlines in them.

'Just how did it come to be like this?' he wondered. He casually broke through all the restrictions he was put under from the different attacks and walked forward.

"Stop!" the people started shouting at him, but Ning didn't stop at all. He kept walking forwards.

The ones that had acquired superior strength from their bloodline rushed at Ning to stop him physically. However, that too didn't work.

Ning casually caught any physical attacks that flew in his direction and crushed it, whether it be weapons and projectiles, or even hands and fists.

He then started slashing with his spear everywhere, slicing out anything that stood in his path.

One after another, the many hybrids that were in the cave started dwindling in number as they were killed in both body and soul.

A river of blood flowed in the pathway as torn-up corpses were scattered everywhere. The ones that were still alive were shocked and scared when they saw this.

"Moster!" they cried out.

"Why are you killing us?" they asked.

However, Ning wasn't in the mood to ask questions. He sent out a few more attacks and killed the people there.

He then flew across the air, not stepping on the blood anywhere. The thick scent of the blood was nauseating, but he had been through quite a few of these such that it didn't phase him anymore.

He came across more people who attacked him the moment they realized he was an intruder. He followed the path with more people in it and eventually reached a place that looked like a big hall that lead to a much different room.

The hall was fully absent with most of the people already dead before he even arrived here.

He looked at the empty hall that only had a single thing in it. There was a small blood fountain at the center of the hall with a single blood crystal about 2 meters tall in it.

The fountain of blood was all sprayed directly into this crystal from where the blood pooled up at the fountain that would be thrown back at the crystal again.

"What the hell is that?" Ning wondered. "System, can you explain?"

The system didn't answer for a few seconds, confusing Ning since it always answered the moment he asked the questions. However, it did answer after a few seconds of pause.

<That crystal is an anomaly that should not exist in this place. The crystal was not created naturally and does not obey the rules of this universe. It is something that is truly hated by both the Creator and the system>

<if you can, please destroy it>

Ning was confused for a second. "What is it though? What's its purpose?" he asked.

<The crystal was created from nothing and works as a transfer point where one can store or send whatever is given to it. In this case, being the blood.>

"Store or send blood? Are you saying these guys ar—"

"Who are you?" someone shouted at him, interrupting his thought process.

"Dammit," Ning said softly and looked at the newcomer. The person who had just arrived was wearing something that didn't match anyone else he had seen before in the cave.

'That looks like a uniform of the sort,' he thought.

"Who are you?" Ning asked in return as well.

"I'm one of the physicians," the man said. "Now tell me who are you?"

"A physician huh? Let's see what exactly your job is then," Ning said and walked forward.

"Stop, and answer me," the physician demanded, but Ning ignored him. The physician went on defensive, but against Ning, he couldn't do anything.

Ning grabbed the physician and immediately used Supreme Domination.

"How may I be of assistance, master?" the physician asked.

"You said you are a physician, right? What exactly is your job here?" Ning asked.

"I am in charge of preparing candidates so that we can slowly take them through the process of changing them from humans to a beast-human hybrid so that they can have more power as they desire.

"Do you know how you guys gather new candidates?" Ning asked.

"I'm not sure on the exact process, but we look for people who are down on their luck and need the extra strength, or people who want revenge and will do anything to acquire it. There are also power-hungry fools who will give their humanity to become strong," the physician said.

"I don't see anything wrong with you. Are you not a hybrid?" Ning asked.

"No, becoming a hybrid poses an extreme risk and the chance of success is very low, so none of the physicians who know this stuff dare to go through the process on their own," the Physician said.

Ning nodded as he got more information. "Why did you come work for these people?" Ning asked.

"The leader promised a large sum of money, so I accepted," the Physician said.

Ning then asked the question that he was burning to know about from the very start. "What exactly is this process? From what I understand, you guys pump the blood of the beasts into these candidates, right? Is that all enough to change them? Or do you do something extra?" he asked.

"We don't pump them with blood at all, master," the physician said.. "At least, not anymore."
