Chapter 529: Rank 3 Transcendent (1/2)

”Well then, I will be leaving for now, Huang. This sub-dimension will probably need at most a year to be completely repaired.”

As I stood in front of the exit of this sub-dimension, Huang, the digital clone of a former Rank 3 Sage was bidding me farewell.

I got his Legacy without any mishaps, completed my Mortal Pathway and actually reached the 2nd Realm of my Transcendent Pathway.

That sounded great, right? After being stuck to Mortal Pathway for too long, I jumped ranks to the 2nd Realm of my Transcendent Pathway that I ended up calling the Energy Reconnection.

If I was treading only one Pathway, this should be equivalent to a Rank 2 Transcendent.

However, given that I had long reached that point before completing my Mortal Pathway, I surpassed the threshold and firmly stepped foot on being a Rank 3 Transcendent. Or more like, I even surpassed some of the Rank 3 Transcendents we encountered.

I was now approaching Rank 4 Transcendent.

It was all because of the bonus stats from completing the Mortal Pathway, the stats I acquired from completing the 1st Realm, the stats I acquired from the progress I made from the 2nd realm, bonus stats from enduring the 'torture' of Chaotic Energy and bonus stats generated from my Transcendent Pathway.

Each of my five Mortal Pathways gave a total of 18 stat points that were allotted differently depending on the specialty of that Pathway.

System Pathway gave 6 Strength, 6 Endurance and 1 Intelligence.

Noticeably, 1 Intelligence was equivalent to 6 Strength and 6 Endurance. So that's still a total of 18 stat points if everything was allotted to Strength and Endurance.

Physique Pathway gave 12 Strength and 6 Endurance.

Spirit Pathway gave 6 Strength and 12 Endurance.

Psyche Pathway gave 3 Intelligence.

Elemental Pathway gave 9 Strength and 9 Endurance.

And that was just the bonus from completing my Mortal Pathways.

Following that, by swiftly completing the 1st Realm, it gave the equivalent of how 150 UPL; the difference between someone who had just reached Transcendent Realm and someone who had broken through to become a Rank 2 Transcendent.

And that 150 UPL was divided between the three stats with Intelligence getting the larger portion. Or to be exact, as what was shown in the notification by my System when I broke through from the 1st Realm of my Transcendent Pathway into the 2nd Realm, it consisted of 100 Strength, 100 Endurance and 35 Intelligence,

If I would compute that using the formula for measuring UPL, that's exactly 164 UPL. The additional 14 was what I mentioned as bonus stats that came from either the tempering I received from absorbing and expelling Chaotic properties as well as bonuses generated by my Transcendent Pathway.

And that's not everything I got. As soon as one embarked on their Transcendent Pathway, each progress would result in an increase in one's stats.

That's why there were those notations called early, mid, late and peak. A Rank 1 Transcendent or someone at his or her 1st Realm of Transcendent with 90% progress and above was called peak Rank 1 Transcendent. If it was based on UPL then it was probably around 240 up to 250 could be called peak Rank 1 Transcendent.

The remaining 50 UPL to reach the 300 UPL threshold for a Rank 2 Transcendent could be achieved by breaking through the 1st Realm.

Consequently, that's also how it was in the higher ranks.

Considering there's 400 UPL difference between Rank 2 and Rank 3 Transcendent, 250 UPL could be gained through progressing to it and 150 UPL after breaking through or completing the 2nd Realm of one's Transcendent Pathway.

And since I reached 50% percent, I had already gained half of the intended stat points. To be exact as notified by my System, I already gained 80 Strength, 80 Endurance and 30 Intelligence. That's equivalent to 136 UPL. The additional 11 Points were once again attributed to Chaotic Energy and my Transcendent Pathway.

Just with that, my gains could already be said unimaginable. That's just an addition to my base stats after all.

With the Shared Growth skill, all of my Companions would've felt the growth through receiving bonus stat points. Furthermore, all the World connected to me through World Assimilation would also feel the progress.

I was already informed by the Incarnation in my System about the progress of the World of System and Ele also messaged me about the progress of her World.

She had already reached the last 10% before the World of Elements evolved to becoming a Transcendent World.

In any case, I opened my status page to see how much I had truly grown in this short time I used by absorbing half a Chaosworld worth of Chaotic Energy.
