Chapter 139: Second Stage of the Primordial Power

“Yeah! That seems like it!”

Cisco agreed.

“Anyway, we’ll know when we get there, right?”

Casey brushed it off.

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go!”

…

The decor on the fourth floor made it resemble a magnificent palace.

The moment everyone laid eyes on their new surroundings, they instinctively thought that they had returned to the palace in Rowei.

“Why is this place like this?”

Iamas was the first to ask.

They trudged along in the eerily silent fourth floor when a wave of smoke suddenly emerged.

Fike was the first to sense the attack.

He yelled.

“Everyone, cover your nose and mouth! Don’t breathe in the smoke!”

However, before they could react, the wave of pink smoke had already washed over and entered the others’ orifices.

“My… my… body… is… so… heavy!”

“Why… why do I feel… so… sleepy…”

Everyone except Fike fell to the ground instantly.

Looking at the collapsed bodies of his group members, an urgent sense of crisis instantly arose in Fike.

“Hidden message! Is there a beast on this level?”

[Hidden Information: No Exotic Beast presence detected. This level is safe!]

Fike’s worried heart relaxed slightly after seeing this.

He then asked again.

“Hidden message! Can the medicinal herbs in my backpack be used to refine pills to cure them of their coma?”

[Hidden Information: This can indeed be done, but before that, it would be recommended for you to cultivate the second stage of Primordial Power!]

“Will this smoke cause any harm to their bodies?”

[Hidden Information: It will not cause them any harm. They have simply fainted. When the time is up, they will wake up as normal.]

“I see. Alright then, let’s start cultivating the second stage of the Primordial Power now!”

Fike took out the Primordial Power from his backpack, and flipped to the page detailing the second stage.

“The second stage of the Primordial Power, the Divine Might. After mastering the Divine Might, your techniques will become divinely powerful. You will pluck stars with your bare hands!

“There is only one level in the chapter of the Divine Might. Upon success, you will ascend.”

“Failure, however, will result in the loss of all your spells!”

Fike took a deep breath when he saw this, and consulted the hidden information again.

“Hidden message! Can I really cultivate the second stage, the Divine Might, now? If I fail, all my previous efforts will be wasted!”

[Hidden Information: There’s no need to worry at all. The probability of success is 100%.]

After seeing this, Fike made up his mind.

“Forget it! Let’s just give it a try then!”

He started to cultivate according to the instructions of the second chapter of the Primordial Power.

Fike sat cross-legged on the floor, his hands continuously moving as he circulated the cultivation technique.

He closed his eyes, and following what was detailed in the book, he unleashed all of his cultivation techniques and skills on himself.

“First is the Demon Slaying Ray!”

The third golden eye appeared on Fike’s forehead.

However, only the white of the eye was exposed this time. It was then that Fike realized.

The eyeball had rotated a complete 180 degrees.

The golden eye released a powerful beam of the Demon Slayer Ray directly into Fike’s brain.

He felt his consciousness slowly becoming blurry.

“Ah! A-Ah!”

Fike couldn’t help but scream in agony.

“I never expected my Demon Slaying Ray to be so powerful!”

Then, Fike’s world began to spin uncontrollably as a golden full moon appeared in the sky, rapidly rushing down onto his head.

The surrounding walls were already completely enveloped in a thick layer of ice as the full power of Divine Snowfall fell onto Fike alone.

The spell burst out with unprecedented power, blurring his vision further.

An extreme heat immediately followed the bitter cold.

Suddenly, countless hot sparks appeared, raining down from the air and burning his skin.

“Ahh!”

“I didn’t expect that the way to increase the power of your skills would be to endure your own attacks!”

Fike grunted silently.

“There’s only one last attack! Hold on!”

Once all of Fike’s main skills had been unleashed upon himself, a strong purplish-red light appeared in mid-air.

Its intensity was ferocious, and Fike felt that he could only barely withstand it.

The light descended without any warning, torturing both his body and mind.

An unfamiliar voice suddenly resounded in his heart.

“Are you really willing to become stronger for the sake of Miracle?

“Are you really willing to shoulder the heavy responsibility of defeating the evil god?

“Are you really willing to save everyone?”

Fike gritted his teeth and loudly declared in the face of these questions that appeared in his heart.

“I’m willing!”

Finally, the purple-red light disappeared.

Fike pried opened his eyes cautiously.

When they opened, he found a notification from a hidden message.

[Hidden Information: Congratulations, you have successfully mastered the second chapter of the Primordial Power, Divine Might! ]

Fike looked down at his body. At this moment, he felt as if something magical had been fused into his blood.

His five senses seemed to have become significantly more acute than before.

Simply by waving his fist, he found that his body had seemed to have become lighter, allowing him to move at a new speed and strength.

“Hidden information! Since I’ve already mastered the second stage, let’s start refining the pills to wake the rest up!”

Then, Fike took out the magic cauldron and began adding medicinal materials into it, according to the hints from the hidden information.

Even during this process, Fike felt that his control over the power of the flames below had grown.

After a while, six pills flew out of the cauldron.

[Hidden Information: Awakening Pills, Gold-tier. Can immediately wake people who are unconscious without any side effects.]

Fike took the six pills and stuffed them into the mouths of his six unconscious groupmates. Then, he cast a spell to make them swallow the pills.

After a short while, they all opened their eyes.

“I… What… what happened?”

“The Exotic Beasts… Didn’t attack, right?”

Seeing that everyone was confused, Fike explained to them why they had passed out.

When they heard that Fike had refined pills to wake them up, they expressed their gratitude.

Fike brushed away their praise.

“Now that you’re all fully conscious, let’s keep moving up!”
