Chapter 175: Ascending, An eerie place

[ Congratulations, You are the winners. ]

Athan and Tiana stood on the ground as they received a golden orb that entered inside them.

Both of them were surprised after receiving the golden orb as they hurriedly sat down crossed-legged.

This golden orb was the same as what Avelia got, and their effects were similar.

Plane Ascending.

In the Erudite Palace Plane, They have to create a general frame of Erudite Palace using their Primal energy, Soul energy, and Genesis energy.

The Erudite Palace plane is connected to all three realms inside their body; Energy Realm, Genesis Realm & Soul Realm, and creating the Erudite Palace Plane is the first stage in the Erudite Palace Plane: Palace Creation.

The golden orb which entered their body instantly created this palace inside them, but it didn't stop as they got sufficient resources from this golden orb to progress further and started to progress.

The golden orb was supposed to be used for the peak-ruler plane so they can break through to Spirit Astride Stage. But Athan and others were not in the Ruler plane, which created the current situation.

After completing the first stage of Erudite Palace Plane: Palace Creation, they moved to the second stage: Palace Consolidation.

This stage usually takes a long time because they have to consume their primal energy, genesis energy, and soul energy to consolidate the palace every day.

The consolidation in this stage means that they have to make the palace robust and solid and closely connect it to the three realms of their body.

The golden orb gave them tons of soul energy, genesis energy, and primal energy to consolidate the palace, usually taking other people a century because there were no resources that gave them soul energy. There were some but very rare and hard to come by.

But this Roumbra Blood War dimension had tons of soul energy. Athan speculated that this dimension absorbs all soul energies of dead beings even when Roumbra Blood war is not taking place. Furthermore, when the Roumbra blood war starts, Many powerful people die, gathering sufficient soul energy to reward others.

After Athan and Tiana completed the second stage: Palace consolidation, They moved onto the third stage, Erudite Engravings.

The golden orb can't directly finish this stage because they have to do it with their own will. After all, it requires them to create their own abilities from all of the knowledge and things they comprehended until now.

Erudite Engravings. They have to engrave their Erudite Palace with all of the things they learned and comprehended until now.

The golden orb seems to be giving them all the required things and even assisting them by calming their minds and letting them enter Fatal Cogitation State.

Athan and Tiana thus started engraving all of the things they comprehended until now, such as all intents, concepts, domain powers, the spells they created, etc and this requires extensive works of mind and soul.

When the universe senses the engravings of knowledge and comprehension and deems it worthy for the word " Erudite, " It will recognize and baptized their Erudite Palace with rule power. Thus, their Erutie Palace will finally be worthy of the word " Erudite," and they will be able to sense and create rule powers.

Athan and Tiana were engraving all of their knowledge and comprehension, and it was going smooth due to the Fatal Cogitation State.

...

At another place, Mike and Qerin actually met up in a trial hall, but Mike's left hand was no more after the fight for the treasure chest was over.

Mike and Qerin didn't have the white gold energy inside them, so it takes time to heal their moderate injures while it was simply impossible to regenerate the cut-off limbs for them.

Qerin was not that injured as she was attending to Mike's wounds and said in a worried tone, " Can you stop being so reckless? Look at your injuries, idiot. "

" Hehehe..." Mike grinned but didn't say anything. He fought valiantly in the hall as he ripped apart many with his geno art.

He had to use his geno skill two times, but it was worth it. Qerin's geno art was useful in any situation and could support the attacks thrown by Mike to make sure that his attacks always hit the enemies.

Overall, both used their geno skills twice, so they still had 30% of geno energy left inside them.

" Go and take the reward, and don't say no to me because you deserve it. " Qerin said after healing and dressing his would and sealing his cut-off arm.

Mike rubbed his nose with a smile as he touched the treasure chest in the middle of the hall; A bright golden light radiated from the treasure chest after its lid disappeared with Mike's touch, and all of his energy was recovered before a ball of light entered inside him. The ball of light was a series magic like Athan's Blood Magic of Versatile Covenant.

Unfortunately, His injuries were not healed, and only his energy got recovered.

Qerin noticed that Mike's injures were not recovered said in displeasure, " It would have been better if the reward included full healing, just like full energy recovering. "

Mike smiled wryly and said, " But it still can't recover our geno energy. Anyway, we are together, and we still have 30% of geno energy left on each. We can use our first geno skill six times so we won't have a problem winning one more time.? "

Mike then told her about the reward he received, which was just like Athan's magic, and said, " But it seems that I can't use it directly and have to comprehend it. Since that's the case, Let's continue and win one more to get rewards. "

" First, promise me that you will not be reckless next time. Otherwise, I won't let you leave this hall. "

" Alright, I promise you that I will not be reckless...unless..."

" Unless what? What?? "

Mike rubbed his nose with a smile and said, " Nothing...I promise I won't be reckless. Now let's go. "

Qerin pouted, but she didn't insist anymore as both of them started walking into one of the pathways.

After walking for a while, They finally reached the other end and were shocked to see the scene in front of them.

In front of them was ground with red sky and dark orange half-moon.

The ground had many pits filled with blood-like liquid mixed with different shades of other colors.

" What...is this? " Mike mumbled, looking at it.

Qerin frowned and said, " Let's go back and choose a different pathway; this place is giving me a bad feeling. "

But suddenly, They felt a forceful pull as both of them flung forward and landed on the ground.

[ Stay in any blood pool for thirty minutes. If you can survive that, Then you will receive rewards. After that, You will have to complete a single challenge to get grand rewards and leave this place...Alive. ]

[ Choose any blood pool; each blood pool has different effects. If you are lucky and choose a blood pool that has low...effects, you might survive. ]
