Chapter 959: Surpassing the Ego Destruction Tribulation (IV)
The crushing pressure kept smashing Cain's mind and spirit, urging him to rest, but he knew that if he did that for even a second, his mind would turn off and he would never wake up, so no matter what, he kept resisting.
Hours went by, and Cain's body trembled more and more, his entire body soaked in cold sweat as blood leaked from his ears, eyes, nose, and mouth. No matter how painful and exhausting it was, he kept enduring, every second his willpower growing larger and the evolution advancing.
After thirty hours, the last wisp of that metallic gray fire vanished inside Cain, only for a willpower that burned like a sun to emerge from his eyes the next second, and inside the power to hold an entire world could be felt.
Cain's eyes glowed with such intensity that it felt as if they could replace the light of the sun in the sky. He raised his hand and gently clenched his fist, immediately causing cracks to appear in the fabric of space around him.
It was easy for Cain to shatter space if he used the full strength of his body, but now he was relying solely on his willpower, showing just how powerful his Ego Wave had become after surviving those seven layers of tribulation fire.
"BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!"
Cain did not dare relax as the next layer of fire exploded with power after The Crushing Pressure vanished inside his mind.
Eighth Layer: The Fiery Crucible.
The power in the eighth layer was so immense that it spread over ten percent of the entire Atlas Continent, and as its power rose, it began to generate an abominable heat.
The warriors of the Sacred Races felt that power and immediately flew away, putting as much distance as they could from Cain. That layer of tribulation fire transformed the environment into a hellish crucible, and none of them would be able to endure it. They needed to move away unless they wanted their egos and wills burned to ashes.
Cain's eyes could see nothing but the fiery layers as they descended, generating a crucible of intense heat and pressure, creating an environment of pure, relentless trial as it surrounded him from all directions. It was as if he was thrown into an inferno of fire that could melt worlds, and immediately the tribulation began.
The fiery inferno flew into Cain's body, rushing into his mind, targeting his mind and soul! It was like an intense, all-consuming psychic flame aiming to burn away his ego and sense of self.
Pure pain and agony appeared on Cain's face as he clenched his teeth, his expression twisted like that of a demon due to the simply inhumane pain that assaulted him. The fires of the eighth layer flooded his soul sea and coursed through his soul force and Alter-Ego!
