Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 1072

Chapter 1072: Chapter 1072 - Taming the Wall - 10th Chamber - Digi-Fight

Ren didn’t even tense.

That was the first instinct and it was wrong, because tensing against corruption was giving it exactly the kind of resistance it knew how to consume.

He had learned this the hard way the first time the corruption had been dense enough that aggressive resistance made things worse rather than better. His system had remembered that lesson even when his mind had been too occupied to consciously recall it.

So he relaxed...

Not completely, not the way you relaxed when there was nothing to worry about, but the specific opposite of tensing: keeping the system active, the channels open, the circulation running without giving the corruption a pressure point to push against.

Like keeping water moving so sediment doesn’t have the stillness to settle. Fern would have understood that analogy better than any mana theory Ren had ever written.

He analyzed...

The incoming corruption had a signature, distinct from what the wall’s corruption produced and distinct from what the chamber mutants had carried, though it shared lineage with both.

It had structure, the signature of something cultivated or designed rather than simply generated, repetitive patterns that corresponded directly to the exterior runes and told any system that read them which frequencies to amplify and which to suppress.

Not raw corruption; instructed corruption.

Ren read the patterns...

Deliberately, without urgency, finding the primary amplification axes first and then the secondary ones, looking for the points where the structure was repeated because the points where something is repeated are the points where its limits and weakness are more predictable.

No different in principle from reading the crystallization runes in Selphira or Victor, only more complex and more dynamic, a living flow rather than a static crystal. But the same skill applied.

Selthia’s writing style, which was embedded throughout in the purple runes, had a strange quality: more intense than Liora’s, more precise than Larissa’s, almost artistic in places, hiding small details in the geometry that required real attention to catch. But it had internal logic, and anything with internal logic Ren could eventually read.

He found the first reduction point at two minutes.

Not to stop the flow but to divert a fraction toward an expulsion channel that didn’t carry the effect the corruption was built to deliver. The equivalent of opening a secondary valve to reduce pressure in the main line without shutting anything down.

The advance slowed... Not enough for the danger to clear, but enough to confirm it could be affected, enough to show the system had seams.

The second point took longer because it sat deeper in the pattern and required him to have read enough of the surrounding architecture to know where to look for it. When he found it the additional reduction was smaller but more stable, the kind of adjustment that didn’t easily undo itself even when the system tried to compensate.

He was learning. And while he was learning, the door’s interior space was taking shape around him.

♢♢♢♢

The space was unlike anything Ren had entered before.

Not the empty library of his own mind. Not the abstract beast mental architecture that fusions produced.
