Since he had nothing to do there, Arthur didn't linger around any longer, his figure blurred and in with just a step, he was already a long distance away from that square, or what was left of it .
Along the road, he saw many bloody battles between the two factions and from the looks of it, the Pigolo Tribe started their retaliation as there was an astronomical number of these hideous looking creatures .
Obviously, he didn't meddle in their affairs as they had nothing to do with him or his plans, he already instructed Gutcha and gave him specific orders, as for himself, he planned to seclude himself for a while until the Pigolo Tribe manages to avoid this disaster and the atmosphere outside calms down .
With his abilities, finding a quiet, undisturbed place wasn't much of a challenge, using the Earth Attribute along with a skill similar to Vyncent's albeit a bit lacking, he merged with the ground and dived deep underground until he arrived into a closed cave approximately eight hundred meters from the surface .
This place had dense Nether Energy and it was a perfect place to cultivate . as his body got out of the roof, Arthur sat cross-legged in the center of the cave and closed his eyes . He was eager to check the system logs and see the benefits of his breakthrough, however, he wasn't that impatient . First, he revolved his Dark-Anguish Technique and circulated the Nether Energy in his body which led to black flames appearing around his body . Along with his Dark-Anguish Technique, he also activated the Dark-Star Strengthening Technique which allowed him to create a very powerful defensive layer below his skin .
In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed and Arthur finally opened his eyes again . Hearing the crackling noises of the damnable chains, he sighed and showed a pained laugh
"Although I managed to break through, they are still here . . . . fortunately, their restrictive power decreased by a huge margin . "
He tried breaking the chains but no matter how much strength he exercised, it was futile and only a pointless struggle . After trying a few more times and reaching no conclusion, he gave up and shifted his attention to the system .
As he saw the long list of system logs, Arthur licked his lips and started browsing through them .

Seeing the long list of notifications and the increase in stats, Arthur let out a hearty laugh, just by gazing at the stats alone, his confidence was boosted again . His stats doubled ad facing a Peak God is certainly achievable, even killing one is not a far-fetched thought .
For the next hour and a half, Arthur checked all the details about the skills and techniques and picked a few that pleased him . He had chosen three martial art skills, one movement technique, and three sword-based skills .
The martial art skills are:
[Raging Bronze Platform](Mastery: Spirit) (3rd Grade Mystic Rank)
[Heavenly Mountain Fist] (Mastery: Mystic)(1st Grade Heavenly Rank)
[Unparalelled Golden Palm](Mastery: Heavenly)(3rd Grade Heavenly Rank)
The movement technique was something he was already familiar with, it's an evolution of petal steps . He unconsciously used it earlier, each step would allow him to cross distance and all that was left was his afterimage .
[Petal Leap](Mastery: Mystic)(2nd Grade Spirit Rank)
Although its Rank was not high and he had a few other good movement techniques, he still chose this one as he felt it was quite compatible with him, moreover, it suited his tastes .
Last but not least were the sword-based skills:
[Heavenly Slash]
[Golden Lone Sheath]: Unsheath and sheath your sword at an incredible speed, creating a devastating sword attack .
Cost: 100,000 Mana / 25,000 Nether Energy
Cooldown: none
[Thousand Waves]: Unleash a sword attack that is the combination of thousand sword strike .
Cost: 1m Mana/500,000 Nether Energy .
Cooldown: 20 Hours .
With the help of the ARK godly time manipulating ability, which allowed him to spend a long time inside of it without a second passing outside, he was confident in raising his mastery of these skills . What's more, the presence of Makaze, his beloved katana, those attacks would become more monstrous and if the enemy is a God, he would not come out unscathed after receiving such formidable attacks .
