Chapter 694: Level 3 Cloud Steps (1/2)

While Geron was rushing towards Ceru to help him block the attack, Ajax had just opened his eyes after receiving a system notification.

'Ding,

The spirit consciousness is completely filled. Please stop filling it.

”Phew...finally filled the spiritual consciousness in four hours,”

As soon as he received the system, Ajax heaved a sigh of relief as he could now upgrade the last cultivation technique that helps him in movement speed.

”System, upgrade the cloud steps to level 3,”

Without wasting any time, he directly ordered the system to upgrade his level 2 cloud steps.

'Ding,

Consumed 10000 units of the essence of nature.

'Ding,

'Cloud steps' is upgraded to level 3.

There was a slight pain in his head for a moment; however, it disappeared soon enough and at the same time, he received the confirmation notification from the system.

'Looks like I am used to different types of pains, I didn't feel much pain earlier except for a slight ticklish feeling in my head,'

Ajax joked regarding the pain and checked the newly upgraded 'Cloud steps'

'Ding,

Cultivation technique:- Cloud steps (level 3)

Effect:- 1) Increases the movement speed by 3 times the original speed.

2) Can fly in the air for 10 kilometers in a day.

”What?”

Ajax was shocked by the new effect of the cloud steps because he could finally fly now.

Generally, when a cultivator reaches the general realm, their speed was very fast and for an onlooker, it would appear like he was flying; however, it was not true.

A cultivator needs to be in an elite general cultivator and he or she needs to practice flying by forming wings with their essence of nature; however, Ajax was able to fly before he could even reach the general realm. So, of course, he would be shocked and happy at the same time.

'Even though it is only 10 kilometers, it would be very helpful when I fight against the flying spirit beasts or other beings,'

Ajax was pretty much satisfied with the limitations of the second effect as he thought inside his head about it.

'Now, it's time to increase my strength,'

Since the energy orbs would not be very useful when he was in the general realm, he wanted to use them now and without wasting any time, he directly thought about it.

As soon as he thought about those energy orbs, one after another energy orb started bursting out while releasing the pure essence of nature into his spirit consciousness.

'Aargh'

Along with that, the usual pain emerged from his spirit consciousness which made him groan despite the face he was already ready for it.

'Ding,

Level 3 elite commander realm reached.

'Ding,

Level 4 elite commander realm reached.

.

.

.'Ding,

Level 7 elite commander realm reached.

The pain in his spirit consciousness increased with each passing second; however, with each system notification, Ajax felt excited and it helped him endure the pain.

'Phew'

Nevertheless, the pain disappeared without a trace from his spirit consciousness that made him heave a sigh of relief.

'Huh? Is that all? No more system notifications?'

Soon, Ajax felt something was not right because the system notifications he was expecting were nowhere to be seen.
