In the depths of the mountain range, a shadow quickly passed by. The shadow's speed had likely reached 200 km/hr.
This shadow was Ankit. Ankit could easily reach 200 km/hr. This speed could be achieved in substage 1.
Ankit was not running at his full speed. If he had, he likely would have reached 700 km/hr. But it would cause Ankit to lose his balance.
He had not practiced and couldn't control his full speed, but he could control this 200 km/hr speed easily.
So Ankit began to run on foot toward the depths of the mountain range.
After Ankit found an isolated spacious place 2 km away, he ran toward that place.
He had sensed that the place was big enough and isolated for his practice session.
Ankit's powers had really improved after completing substage 3. And he wanted to check his full power, so he had come here.
After Ankit scanned that there was no one in this place other than some animals,
Ankit thought that animals would quickly scatter when they saw his power and they would not be hurt.
So Ankit began to assess his strength. Firstly, he would only use his body power to test, after that he would use his full power with essence flow.
Ankit then squatted on the ground and jumped vertically with only his full body power.
1-ton leg strength + 400 km/h speed equals physics-defying launch.
He easily reached 200 m height with only his body power, imagine the height of a skyscraper. Because he had worked on his body in substage 2, this body power was thanks to substage 2.
When Ankit saw the scenery from above, he was truly captivated. This was the feeling he wanted. One day he would fly effortlessly and naturally without using his essence flow.
Then Ankit landed on the same place with a thud.
All the nearby stones flew away and the entire ground broke apart. When the nearby animals saw this, they quickly scattered away, not daring to come close to that place.
After Ankit saw this destruction, he clicked his tongue. He said, "That's a relief I don't assess my strength at the hut location, otherwise I would definitely be found."
He then used his full power with both his body strength and essence flow. All the nearby animals could feel in their instincts that something big was going to happen; their fear rose to max level and they quickly put distance between themselves and Ankit's place.
Ankit launched like a rocket. He easily surpassed his previous record and finally achieved the height of 500 meters.
Ankit was thrilled after seeing his hard work pay off.
This was all made possible thanks to his condensed essence flow.
He went down but quickly controlled himself using essence flow and gently landed on the ground without causing a single stone to fly.
He had already seen the destructive power of his previous jump, so he didn't want to try that again. It would really destroy this place. And he was not a fan of big destruction.
Ankit then began to test his other powers. He tested his strength by lifting nearby stones. He felt that he could easily lift more than 1 ton like he told his sister previously. But after using condensed energy, he could lift 5 tons. This difference was enough to make Ankit smile.
Ankit also tested his speed. In the beginning, he started slow and only used his body power and began to run clockwise, reaching a speed of 200 km/hr.
After getting familiar with this speed, he increased his speed.
He increased his speed until he reached 400 km/hr and sensed that this was the limit of his body power.
Without stopping, Ankit used his condensed essence flow to accelerate his speed slowly.
He almost got out of control but quickly slowed his speed. Then with full focus, he slowly started increasing his speed and reached his limit of 700 km/hr.
This speed was enough for Ankit to match the average speed of a plane.
Ankit stopped and quickly steadied his mind because of this intense speed; his mind was now a mess. But he quickly stabilized it.
His gaze turned toward the destruction he had caused after this testing.
When he was running, his full focus was on controlling his speed. And he also had to protect his body with essence flow, so he couldn't divert his mind anywhere else.
That's why he didn't realise what had happened to his surroundings.
But now he saw: a scorched, linear, shrapnel-filled trench several feet wide and deep.
And he also saw the landscape battered by a sudden, supersonic windstorm.
He quickly got away from that place and began to return toward his hut.
This destruction would definitely attract many people. Previously, he thought that if he came deep into the mountain, he would not attract anyone. But because of his power, things got out of control.
While he was running, he saw some people already coming in their vehicles, but because that place was in the depths, they couldn't use their vehicles.
So they ran toward that place.
If Ankit had learned some "earth controlling technique," he definitely would not leave like that.
He would definitely erase his traces. But he hadn't learned it.
After making a promise to learn earth controlling technique, he quickly got away.
