Epoch: A Berserker's Rise

Chapter 237: Wonder

Adam didn't have the time to look through the library as he simply sent everything into the Blood Tower. The tremendous Soul Energy he had absorbed was in the process of being refined, and Adam could feel his Soul get stronger and stronger.

However, he could also feel something would happen when the Soul Energy finished being refined, and since he didn't know what it would be, he had to do a few things first.

He appeared on top of the city once again and quickly sent Neith into the Blood Tower before flying toward the place where Neith had been ambushed. By the time he reached the place, half of the Soul Energy had already been refined, and the refinement speed was getting quicker and quicker.

Using his power to form a gigantic hand of Qi, Adam grabbed a huge chunk off the ground, destroying the mountain under which the cave Neith originally headed for was.

It revealed a large tunnel leading toward a cave, so Adam carelessly threw the mountain away and rushed into the cave. Then, using the same move, he took everything inside the cave, not even minding whether they were rocks or precious ores, and sent them to Neith in the Blood Tower and told her it was time to evolve.

Then, Adam flew out of the cave and quickly flew to the clouds before he finally on top of one of them. It was normally impossible to stand on a cloud, but with his power Adam was easily able to do so. Meanwhile, back on Earth Adam made sure he was in a safe place.

Half a minute later, the remaining Soul Energy had finally been entirely refined, and Adam felt his new Soul. His Soul now radiated a raw might so powerful that if Adam were to have his soul leave his body, a mortal would probably turn crazy or even die simply by standing close to it.

But Adam didn't have much time to observe it as he felt like a lock on his Soul was opened, and his Soul began shining. Before he could even understand what was happening, he lost consciousness as his Soul began an extraordinary transformation.

Even while he was unconscious, Adam's domain was still active, and as the transformation took place, his domain was turning stronger and stronger.

Several hours quickly went by, during which Adam's Soul went through a myriad of changes. Until now, because of the massive amount of Soul Energy his soul had absorbed, it had become massive in size, but the quality was a little behind.

Adam's soul had the form of a human, but used to be blurry and did not have any particular traits. However, it was several tens of meters tall, and it had eventually reached exactly 100 meters tall when he finished absorbing Soul Energy.

Now however, his Soul returned to it's initial size, the size of a normal human being. But the originally bluish Soul now was of a blinding white, and it exuded an overwhelming Aura. Moreover, it's traits were no longer vague, and it had turned into Adam's exact body. Before integrating with an Essence, a Soul would always be similar looking to their host.

Before long, Adam opened his eyes, having finally regained consciousness. The moment he did, he was shocked. The first thing that came to him was his Domain, which now covered an area of a kilometer, forming a dome with a radius of a thousand meters around Adam.

Moreover, it wasn't only the size that changed, but it's power too. Before, Adam could influence the world with difficulty, but now he could do so with ease. Now, using the same amount of Qi as before, his skills would turn much stronger than they used to be.

Additionally, the world seemed to hold no secret for Adam anymore, and he felt the Concepts just became much easier to understand, their mysteries unravelling before him.

Meanwhile, Adam also so a notification from the system. Although he had broken free from much of it's influence, the system still existed.

[Congratulations for opening the Gate of Wonder! Brain activity increased by 100 times!]

As expected, those big changes were brought by the opening of the Sixth Gate. Adam never would have guessed he would open the Sixth Gate, which had blocked him in his past life, so easily. His domain becoming much stronger was only a side effect of his Soul and brain becoming much stronger.

Adam then unsheathed his sword, and as expected, it had changed too.

[War Sovereign's Greatsword] (Mythic)

Adam's sword had now reached the second best rank after Legendary Equipment. In other words, it was only one rank away from turning into a Legendary Sword. As thus, great changes were brought to it.

Although it was already very strong when it was Epic Ranked, capable of breaking a large array protecting a city, it was multiple times stronger now. It no longer looked like the decrepit old sword it was when he first got it too, and it had already regained a major part of it's splendour.

The sword was of an immaculate white, with golden runes covering it. When he held it, Adam felt like it was the elongation of his body, not just a weapon. He had truly become one with his weapon, without even using the power of the Concept.

Although he was below a Legend in term of power before, Adam was confident he could battle it out with a new Legend with his strengthened domain and sword. One had to understand the difference in power between a peak Hero and even the weakest Legend was very vast. If he wanted to, Adam could kill an average Hero using only the power of his domain.

As for a peak hero like Tazolos or Kriar, although he wouldn't be able to outright kill them, his Domain would still make them much weaker, weak enough to have them killed by an average Hero.

His domain now one kilometer wide, Adam would also be able to search the world much more effectively. He flew down near the ground so his Domain would go a kilometer in the sky and a kilometer in the ground, making his search much easier.

Adam then sped up toward his base. However, barely five seconds after flying off, Adam stopped as he felt a powerful monster enter his domain. Well, not really powerful for him.

Adam appeared in an instant next to the monster, who shivered as it felt the overwhelming domain around it. Adam, who was in the sky, looked down at the shivering goat monster under him, and said "You have two choices, submit or die."

The goat replied with difficulty "Please I submit." Adam nodded and said "I guess you have already heard of my conditions from the others Sages?" The goat nodded, so Adam added "I have already taken the Demon City, and Tazolos will soon join his fellow demons in oblivion. The war won't take place, so send your resources to demon city. You have one week."

The goat nodded, it was reluctant obviously, but it would rather lose all it's treasures than die. Moreover, with that strange power covering it, it knew it had no chance of escape. As for reneging on it's promise after Adam left That would be even worse.

Even if it was able to hide from Adam, living a life in hiding wasn't a nice life to have. It would rather give up all it's resources, which didn't really amount to much, and live a good life, going up and down his mountain, rather than hiding in some grotto several kilometers underground.

After subduing the goat, Adam flew back toward his base. It only took him a few seconds to reach the base, and just as he expected, Tazolos hadn't dared to come and try to attack.

That indeed had been a danger, Tazolos could have come and attacked the camp, exterminating everyone, if he wanted to as Adam was away. But Tazolos didn't know, and it would have been very dangerous to get near the camp.

But even though the chances of that happening, there were still chances for it to happen, and Adam would have been helpless. Fortunately, Tazolos hadn't taken the risk, and everyone was fine.
