Chapter 101 – Second Chamber

“Wooosh!”

A cold wind tickled Ye Wei’s cheek as he carefully looked around but it was useless as inner demons couldn’t be seen, touched, or even sensed.

But Ye Wei knew that it was close by.

Ye Wei was not yet a Warrior; therefore, he had not come across inner demons before. He had absolutely no idea how to defeat them or how to defend against them. He had no experience at all.

Ye Wei could only cautiously stay on guard.

“Argghhhh!”

While Ye Wei was carefully waiting for something to happen, an unbearable, soul shaking pain struck him.

This pain was not physical; this was a wound to the soul! There was a limit to physical pain. It stopped worsening when one’s body turned numb. But this kind of pain of one’s soul was far worse. It seemed as if there would be no end!

Ye Wei’s eyeballs seemed to almost pop out, and blood vessels around his face were almost bursting. His face was completely red, and the muscles unconsciously twisted and twitched; his handsome face became a hideous mask.

The veins on his forehead and neck were strained, and some of his capillaries had already burst causing his forehead and face to be covered in blood. He looked as scary as a devil.

“No! Hold on. I have to hold on!” Ye Wei tightly ground his teeth as his consciousness started to become blurry.

At this moment what Lin Zi Yan said earlier echoed in Ye Wei’s mind. ‘Little Wei, this will be a rough ride, but it will all be fine if you don’t lose yourself!’

‘Yeah, I can’t lose myself!’ Ye Wei’s eyes shone with determination and stubbornness. He was aware that if he gave in he would spiral out of control and would never get out of this abyss of pain.

Ye Wei guessed that inner demons would be scary, but never could he have imagined them to be this fearsome. They struck without warning. There was no way to defend against it, and there was no escape. One could only take it as it comes.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!!”

The fearsome, agonizing pain was like a tide hitting Ye Wei’s consciousness over and over again. A tide that sought to drown Ye Wei’s consciousness, but Ye Wei ground his teeth not losing himself.

Two hours, four hours, six hours!

These six hours felt much longer than three years for Ye Wei.

‘No matter how much pain my body and soul is feeling, I just can’t give up! With my heart, I shall master the way of the universe; with my heart, I will calm my mind. I will cultivate my mind and control my heart with my mind!’ Everything he learned continuously flowed into Ye Wei’s Sentient, and in the Sentient a golden light twinkled like starlight.

The distractions his mind generated from the pain faded, and now Ye Wei felt euphoric; he felt how his soul was purified, refined.

In the end, Ye Wei was still young, and he hadn’t experienced too much; therefore, his mind was relatively pure compared to adults. This made it easier for Ye Wei to defend against his inner demons.

The pain weakened and eventually faded into nothingness.

“It’s finally over!” When the pain disappeared, Ye Wei’s soul shook. He felt utterly exhausted, and he fell to the floor sitting down.

“Boom!!”

Right as he sat down an explosive noise sounded through the entire realm he was in, and a white pillar of light suddenly fell from the sky onto Ye Wei.

A surge of thick, dense energy with an awe-inspiring presence rushed into his body. The energy flowed around him nourishing everything. Ye Wei’s muscles, bones, and organs strengthened at an extremely fearsome speed as his body transformed!

Seated on the ground, Ye Wei looked completely dumbfounded, and shortly after a glint of surprise flashed through his eyes.

Before stepping into the first floor of the Karma Tower, Ye Wei’s cultivation was already at the peak ten-star Student level, and he was qualified to attempt a breakthrough in every way.

Now that Ye Wei had successfully defended himself against the inner demons’ invasion, and because his cultivation level was sufficient, his body started transforming.

When the strength of Ye Wei’s body was at its limit, the vast cosmic energy rushed into his dantian crazily expanding its space.

“Warrior level!” Ye Wei could feel his cultivational breakthrough, and the power of the next level brought him delight.

When Ye Wei became a seven-star Student, his dantian was as big as nine-star students’ dantian. After he refined the Supernova stance and brought it to the second evolution, cosmic energy descended and Ye Wei’s cultivation shot up to the ten-star Student level making his dantian even bigger than it had been.

At this point, Ye Wei’s dantian was already at a Student’s limit almost as big as a Warrior’s.
