Chapter 223 PowerUP.
One of them is his former vitality core. It is about 3 times bigger than the others. The other 9 are his former gates of momentum. They have evolved into proper vessels now. He could feel them and control them perfectly.
"Let\'s try something."
He attempted to connect with the momentum of the world. He had his own conjectures about it but he didn\'t need to visualize or theorize about it anymore. He had gained a lot of understanding of weapon mastery up to the third step from the mana vestiges he had killed. He had gained even more from the lightning celestial god.
The step of weapon mastery required minor world harmonization. The harmonization with earth, water, and air. He had acquired the other two. Getting the last one was very easy. He felt the world through his domain. He felt the earth, the water, and the air. It became easier when his eyes could see what he needed to do.
"All his mana." He said before he took a step forward.
His feet didn\'t return to the ground. Instead, it found support in the air. His second foot also found purchase in the air. He was able to stand in the air. Next came feeling for the momentum of the world and channeling it to himself.
"Mana is force, momentum, energy, and matter. Mana is everything."
It happened quickly. The momentum of the world surged into his body and into the 9 vessels. They revved to life. Then he activated their full purpose. He had always been using them to empower himself passively. He had never harvested them because harvesting them will destroy them. But now he could.
He harvested a single vessel. That vessel burned its stored momentum and gave him unrivaled power. He chopped with his right hand and the sound of his hand breaking the sound barrier resounded like clapping thunder within the room. The vessel didn\'t destroy itself. Soverick turned it off after that short exercise. It is another thing that mana entities can\'t do. Then the momentum of the world began to refill its consumed stores.
"Finally." He nodded in appreciation.
This is what he had been toiling for. One of the things he came to the divine dungeon to achieve. One is to accumulate enough energy, create more gates, and finally break through. The second one is to acquire various understandings for himself and for Legion. The third objective is to get the dungeon core. He has achieved the first two. Which leaves the dungeon core in the central bubble.
His eyes swept the bubbles very close to the central bubble. Inside them were mana entities like the lightning celestial god. They were real instead of vestiges but they have also been weakened. They are the guardians of the central dais. He could see his position relative to the central bubble and the mechanism by which he will get access to it.
He is close to the central room now because he defeated the guardian of the entrance into the central bubble but an entrance hasn\'t been opened to him yet. He will have to fight two guardians before he finally gets access to the central bubble and the dungeon core.
He chuckled. "I\'m not going to do that."
Even though he gained an understanding of spear mastery up to the fifth step from the lightning celestial god, he isn\'t going to kill more celestial gods for their understanding. He would rather take the dungeon core and take everything the divine dungeon has to offer. Any time he wastes fighting the other gods is time for something to go wrong.
He isn\'t a blind man fumbling around in the dark anymore. He can see, so he intends to take the shortest, most direct route to the central bubble. If there is no way, then he will have to make one.
He picked up the spear of the fallen celestial god to use. The spear had become damaged due to the death of its previous owner. It fell from being a divine artifact into a mana weapon. It could still change length a little and it could be amplified with his mana, so it is useful to him.
He elongated the spear a little to match his new height. He had grown from his height of 1.3m to 1.7m tall now after his breakthrough. He is just a little taller than Kayla. He began to channel earth mana into the spear. The spear began to grow heavy and weighted.
Then Soverick turned his eyes to where his small bubble made contact with the central bubble. He waited for a weakness as his spear grew heavier. He breathed in and out with a certain breathing technique. The mana in the air entered his body through his lungs but didn\'t come out.
Air came out when he exhaled but it left mana behind. The mana crossed the thin walls of his lung into his blood. More mana began to fill his blood as he inhaled and exhaled according to the rhythm of his breathing technique. He was practically glowing and thrumming with power.
He began to burn his vessels, just two of them. Power filled his body and limbs as momentum coursed through his mana body. He was ready while his glowing eyes stayed locked onto the wall. Then he thrust into the fault line as soon as he saw it appear.
His spear struck the wall with surety and power. The fault line expanded and the wall cracked. Then it caved in. A suction force pulled on him and drew him into the hole. The hole began to heal after his disappearance until it closed up completely. Meanwhile, he was deposited unceremoniously at his destination.
He found himself in a large room with a sun in the sky. He had fallen face first when he entered the room through a crack in its walls. He stood up quickly and readied himself for battle.
