All wind blades pierced through Leo’s body as they cut him into pieces and there was no surprise in the end result which was Leo’s death.
“I thought he was special for reaching here without any ascending status. It looks like he was nothing special and relied on luck to reach this floor.”
The Wind Elemental Dragon King shook its head in disappointment while looking at Leo’s body which was turned into more than a dozen pieces.
When Leo asked the Wind Elemental Dragon King to release the remaining 20 wind blades at once, he expected Leo to use some kind of trump card to endure them.
However, seeing that Leo didn’t survive the trial, the Wind Elemental Dragon King soon lost interest in Leo.
“Anyway, why are you not sending me back yet? The challenger has been killed. Send me back now.”
The Wind Elemental Dragon King looked at the sky and asked Heaven’s Voice to send him back, “Also, as for my reward, I skip it and let it add to my future rewards.”
[The guardian has failed, as the challenger has successfully completed the challenge]
“It’s alright….what? What did you just say?”
Like always, the dragon king unconsciously nodded; however, when he realized what Heaven’s Voice words were, he became confused and looked at the body parts lying in the blood in the distance.
[Yes. The guardian has failed the challenge, and 100 units of God Energy will be taken from your sponsored god as a penalty. If the payment is not received within two Dragon Weeks, you know the consequences, right?]
The voice was calm; however, for the dragon king, it was the sound of a powerful explosion, hearing from a close distance.
The 100 units of God Energy was not a small amount for the ascended gods. Even the Ancient God didn’t want to waste 100 units of God Energy and now, since the dragon king failed, its sponsored god has to pay some penalty to God Tower.
“You are calling that he is still alive in that condition?”
With a frustrated look in its eyes, the Dragon King asked [Heaven’s Voice]; however, it didn’t bother to reply and silently teleported him out of the eighth floor…as for where he was sent, only Heaven’s Voice and the Dragon King knows.
‘Swoosh’
As soon as the Dragon King left the eighth floor, Leo’s body parts started turning into tiny light particles before disappearing into nothing.
…
In a soul realm,
‘Ding,
The master has triggered the [Ball of the Divine Healing – Revival]. For the next 24 hours, his soul will be struck in the soul realm.
‘Ding,
The [Nether Rage Booster] has been increased by 100 percent.
‘Ding,
The [Nether Rage Booster] has been increased by 100 percent.
.
.
.’Ding,
The [Nether Rage Booster] has been increased to 2450 percent.
On the other hand, Leo opened his eyes in a familiar soul realm and received those system notifications.
‘Did I complete the trial? Or did I die in vain?’
It was all within Leo’s plan of using the [Ball of the Divine Healing – Revival]; however, he was worried about the trial.
[There is no need to worry about the trial. The challenger has successfully completed the trial]
To his surprise, Leo heard [Heaven’s Voice] in the soul realm which was completely out of Leo’s expectations; however, when he thought about it, he didn’t feel surprised anymore.
Since [Heaven’s Voice] is an entity that even Celestial Gods could not go against, it was nothing surprising to see it in the soul realm.
[The challenger will be teleported to the next trial after resurrecting his body. The time spent by the challenger in the soul realm will be considered in the time taken to clear the trial]
The [Heaven’s Voice] explanation made Leo nod his head in agreement.
Even if his clearance rating drops due to the extra 24 hours, Leo felt it was alright!
‘All that matters to me right now is, I cleared the eighth floor.’
Leo didn’t want to think much about it as he won’t be getting any reward now. He would only get the reward after clearing the two more floors.
‘Since the rewards are stacking, it would be quite valuable, right?’
After that, Leo stopped thinking about it and started cultivating.
It was not the first time that Leo entered the soul realm and what he learned from that was, the soul realm was a good place to cultivate.
Therefore, Leo didn’t waste any time and started cultivating.
Of course, he didn’t forget to spend 10 million units of Starlight Energy to strengthen the walls of his Starlight Dantian.
To increase one’s cultivation, the cultivator has to use the energy collected in the dantian to strengthen the walls of that dantian.
Also, that doesn’t mean he could strengthen the wall whenever he wanted. It could only be done when the entire dantian was filled with a certain type of energy.
As the level of cultivation in a particular grade increases, the number of times to strengthen the walls of the dantian would also be increased.
‘Since I am a level 8 legendary cultivator, I need to strengthen them eight times.’
Leo revealed a slight smile as he muttered, ‘It might be difficult for others; however, it won’t take long for me to upgrade it.’
Since Leo had a special cultivation technique and added to the special effect from the [Ascender’s Ring], Leo didn’t worry much when it comes to cultivation.
‘Ding,
The master has absorbed one million units of Starlight Energy.
After one hour, Leo received the system notification informing him about the energy he absorbed.
However, Leo continued to circulate his Special Starlight Technique and cultivated it.
Time continued to pass and 24 hours passed by in a flash,
‘Ding,
The master has absorbed one million units of Starlight Energy.
‘Ding,
Starlight Dantian: 4 million units / 10 million units.
During the last 24 hours, Leo has successfully strengthened his dantian’s walls by two times and as long as he strengthens them by another six times, he would become a level 9 legend grade cultivator.
[Welcome back from the Soul Realm, Challenger. The ninth-floor challenge is Water Elemental Trial].
