Chapter 65: Vessel Of Corruption
(You have killed Level 5 Swift Tiger. Agility +1, Cosmic Energy +1, Strength +0.5)
(You have reached Level 2)
(A/N: The cosmic energy Azrael would receive after killing monsters also included the 40% bonus provided by the Breathing Method. For instance—after killing the Swift Tiger, he initially received 0.7 points of cosmic energy. Since the mid-level Breathing Method boosts the amount of energy gained by 40%, the total became 0.98 points. That’s nearly 1, so I rounded it off for convenience.)
When a person kills someone inside Eonrift, they gain a portion of the target’s power. This phenomenon only occurs inside Eonrift.
Outside Eonrift, individuals must cultivate their source core through conventional methods to level up.
But within Eonrift, as long as you kill, you can absorb a fraction of the slain target’s power and level up rapidly.
Normally, killing a Level 5 monster while being at Level 1 would have granted significantly more stat points than what Azrael received.
However, Azrael’s stat points were already far higher than those of an average Level 1 individual. As a result, his body required substantially more energy to grow stronger, and so his stat increase was only marginal.
Even so, Azrael was deeply satisfied with the gain. One must understand raising even a single stat point required days of intense effort for him.
But now, by merely killing a monster, he had earned a total of 2.5 stat points.
"Mom was right when she called Eonrift a training ground. In here, I can increase my powers at a much greater speed."
Azrael took a few seconds to feel the changes in his body, trying to understand how the energy of the Swift Tiger had strengthened him.
