Chapter 768: Entering the Void Hall
Max’s jaw tightened as the implications settled over him like a heavy mantle. ’Though I hope that the current instability arose because I just completed absorbing the three lightning essence stones required for the first stage of the inheritance. Otherwise, if I really have to absorb only three stones at a time, wait for stabilization, then absorb three more...it might take me over a month just to finish learning how to properly use this technique.’
The thought of such a drawn-out process gnawed at his patience.
Yet despite the uncertainty, a spark of triumph flickered in his eyes as he felt the throbbing presence of the new power nestled inside his inner space. ’At least I can now use the Brilliant Thunder stage.’
Even if the ball of lightning wasn’t fully grown yet, the first stage of the Storm King’s inheritance granted him the ability to empower his fists or weapon increasing their sharpness to a terrifyingly high level.
Following the realization that he’d need time before he could further cultivate the Storm King’s inheritance, Max exhaled slowly, his breath crackling with faint electric sparks, and decided not to waste even a single moment.
Sitting cross-legged on the smooth jade floor of his private chamber, he reached within himself and entered the Dimension of Time.
Max stood alone in the center of of vast white world, his figure still radiating a faint afterglow of lightning energy as he gazed around with steely focus. He clenched his fists and nodded firmly. ’I need to train the Invisibility Cloak skill.’
Though it wasn’t a technique of explosive force like his sword arts or draconic abilities, Max instinctively knew this skill would be a trump card—a shield of shadows that could save his life in countless situations, especially with the enemies he was bound to face in the chaotic Middle Domain.
And he wasn’t content with merely learning it at a basic level. No, he wanted mastery. Level 100 mastery.
