Chapter 150: Reaching Platinum rank
Ethan consumed all the specimens simultaneously.
Tier 6 and Tier 7 enhancement materials flooded his body with power that exceeded safe absorption parameters.
Energy levels climbed beyond anything he’d experienced as different tier potencies combined within his core.
Pain exploded through his nervous system as raw advancement force overwhelmed normal processing capabilities.
The world seemed to become fractured around him as his consciousness expanded beyond physical boundaries. The cave disappeared, replaced by an infinite void that stretched in directions that didn’t exist in normal space.
Ethan found himself floating within darkness, where abstract concepts took tangible form. Power flowed toward him like rivers of liquid starlight, each stream carrying enhancement potential that resonated with his core identity.
Energy signatures approached from impossible distances—fragments of universal force that sought integration with individual capability. Each stream carried different enhancement aspects: strength, speed, durability, magical potency.
His core structure became visible as patterns that defined the boundaries of individual power. Gold-rank limitations appeared as walls that contained accumulated enhancement within established parameters.
’Breaking through. Transcending the established limits.’
The Tier 7 herb essences struck first, their advanced enhancement potential hammering against rank barriers with forces that made reality itself ring like struck metal. Cracks appeared in core limitations as power levels exceeded theoretical maximums.
Tier 6 materials followed immediately, their combined force widening fractures until light began seeping through broken barriers. The void filled with radiance as contained enhancement sought expansion beyond established boundaries.
