”God damn, that is what the fuck I'm talking about,” Elizabeth said as she stood up. It was either that outburst or a literal explosion of dangerous Energy-laced Skills.
The twenty-four hours in the Meditation were well spent, to say the least. Alas, for reasons Elizabeth couldn't control, she could not continue. She didn't lack the time, as she had spent less than five hours in the Meditation Chamber under time distortion. Nor did she lack the means, as she had hundreds of Twinkling Comet Marked Tickets to spare.
Instead, it was one of her internal residents throwing a fit that threw a wrench in her most productive cultivation session.
”You fucking piece of shit, idiot host!” Lisa's voice shook the Spiritual Sea around her domain in Elizabeth's Soul Land.
Her voice was threatening the line between screech and wail as she said, ”I spend my Essence on helping your shitty cultivation and this is how you repay me? You've been ignoring my motherfucking needs for weeks bitch, and I'm fucking hungry!”
”Tsk,” Elizabeth winced at the pain she felt from the back of her shoulder. She touched the burning spot of skin near her Mark of the Godslayer and responded to her grumpy fiendish incarnation, ”Alright, alright. I'll do the Death Substation Trial before anything else.”
”Are you testing me right now?” Lisa dangerously intoned, ”I'll fucking kill you if you don't shape up eventually…”
[Innate Skills:
Name: Mark Of The Godslayer
Current Effect: …You can persist through about two weeks before feeling the urge to kill. After a month and a half of chastity from Death, you die outright.]
”Yeah, yeah. Whatever,” Elizabeth dismissed her after a quick check of her Innate Skill.
She didn't have to listen to her incarnation, death was still a ways away. However, Lisa had a point.
Elizabeth thought, 'She's kind of annoying and I'd rather not deal with this right now. But she has done a lot for me up until now. She's been cooperative and even helpful, her foul mouth aside…'
”You know what? If I don't get a proper Death-type Cultivation Method by the end of the Death Substation Trial, I'll spend one of my rewards on one. Just for you,” Elizabeth grumbled at Lisa.
As her Cultivation Base rose, she would need to spend more time on cultivating to further progress. It wouldn't serve her well to let this problem continue; consequently, steadily progressing in the field of Death was of high priority.
Thus, Elizabeth returned to the round room. She could have easily taken care of getting her bi-monthly Death fix by spending a single Yellow or Grey Twinkling Comet Ticket and absorbing Death Energies in the Meditation Chamber. However, if there was even a chance that she could get a Death-type Cultivation Method by progressing through the Death Substation Trial, she would opt for that first.
Upon returning to the round room, Elizabeth spotted Yrre meditating by the center of the room, but in the end, she didn't bother her.
She quietly walked into the open door labeled ”Death,” and temporarily grew confused as the room remained as white and empty as it was initially, even after the seconds passed.
[Foundation Trial of Death

Time Remaining: 23H 59M 59S]
”You mean…” Elizabeth stopped as she answered her own question before it could even be asked.
The white room eroded away at just the slightest exposure of her Death True Qi, revealing underneath what looked to be a slightly less barren, yet still plain, white room.
In the second pocket dimension, hiding underneath the first, there was the occasional bump in the otherwise plain white floor. Though, Elizabeth didn't bother to study the changes as the second, third, fourth, and so on iterations of the pocket dimensions melted without the slightest resistance against her Death True Qi.
”Hmm?” Elizabeth felt one of her brows subconsciously rise as she detected a foreign energy by the tenth time her Death True Qi consumed the increasingly-complex white room. This foreign energy escalated in intensity, from being hardly detectable to a resistance-worthy threat to her Death True Qi, in a matter of seconds.
However, before it could become too much of a problem, Elizabeth stopped herself. A smug look plagued her face as she found what she was looking for.
