The seemingly fading light of the Thorned Rose seemed imagery as it was composed of time path magic.

The Thorned Rose imagine kept blinking in and out of existence as if it were going to disappear if it was not supplied enough mana even second. This itself was on the borderlines of being spectral magic.

Having a few accomplishments in earth attainments, Neklous easily guided the aura and mana of the earth crystals into the Thorned Rose flower. Like a baby sucking on his mother's breast desperately for milk, the Thorned Rose absorbed eagerly and excitedly absorbed the earth's aura and mana, creating a small whirl pool before as a result.

As soon as the process was done and the whirl pool had disappeared, what appeared was a Thorned rose that was no longer made of fading lights. In fact the Thorn Rose that floated in the sky had become unspeakably vivid as if someone as just painted a portrait in the sky.

Being composed of time magic though, the Thorned Rose flower kept its extremely distant aura yet seemed more bound to the physical world.

"When one has enough accomplishments in a path of magic, they can use it to imitate other paths of magic"

Neklous said out loud as he activated he circulated his mana and activated his time path magic. Visible rune like tattoos began to appear on Neklous's arms as a pupil less eyeball opened in both of them. The eyeballs opened up in the palms of both of his hands and revealed small life like runes. One glowed in a lime green light on his left hand and translated to the word 'Past' while the other glowed in a dim grey light and translated to the word 'Future'

Similar to what happened to Neklous's body, the same thing appeared on the left and right petals and thorns of the conjured Thorned Rose flower.

With this being done, it was time for Neklous to actually attempt to manipulate the plant and forest life around him.

The beautiful Thorned Rose flower glowed ever so brightly, floating just a couple meters from Neklous's forest. It was ever so distant, seeming to be untouchable and gave off a mysterious aura.

"Grow!"

Neklous said commanding as he looked towards the plant life in the area.

The Thorned Rose Flower reacted once this command was given out. Its time path runes glowed ever so brightly as the Earthen mana and aura within it became denser before it ultimately disappeared within thin air.

A few moments later Neklous opened his eyes in shock as he felt a strong burdening pressure fall on him. The earth shook as blades of grass and flowers grew at a rapid pace, causing the small aura he was in to become a small field of large blades of grass that were as tall as trees.

Once the Thorned Rose reappeared on top of Neklous's forehead, he knew what had happened.

When the flower disappeared, It had seemly fused with the local environment and forced its dominance on the surrounding plant life.

They grew so fast because of the plants time path laws relating to the future such as 'accelerate'.

The reason why the grass grew so big was because of the Earthen attribute absorbed from the crystals and Neklous's earthen attainment.

Seemingly unsatisfied, Neklous gave another command causing the Rose to 'disappear' once again. No shaking or pressure occurred this time but what was noticeable was the area seemingly becoming more 'heathier'. This included Neklous as well as his injuries from mining had began to heal.

What Neklous as ultimately done was use the 'Past' Aspect of time magic yet fused it into the plants his thorned rose flower had dominance over, causing the plants to emit pheromones' like particles that restored him and the area to a past time where the wound or damage didn't occur.

Giving out a few more test. Neklous eventually was drained of his mana and mental energy causing the Thorned rose flower to lose control of all its plant life and dim a bit before falling back into Neklous's consciousness.

What Neklous didn't expect was a pain aching headache after it fused back into him. The pain from this headache latterly made him want to use mana blast to blow his fucking head off but unfortunately he was drained of the mana to do it.

Rolling on the ground in agony for a couple minutes, Neklous had eventually came to a stop and simply stood up and stood there, staring at nothing.

What was happening was when the Rose fell back into his consciousness, it bought with it all the knowledge and energy it had gained from those tons of earthen crystals Neklous had bought.

The concepts of nature soon followed and formed in his mind, giving him a slight understanding of its existence and usages.

What Neklous did was quite forceful but it had some fruits. He had used another path and fused his attainments in earth to compliment each other and control an entirely different other path.

Neklous knew it probably would have been easier to just use natural mana and his earth attainments to achieve such a feat but he didn't exactly know how to.
