||
|
||
’I guess this is also a lesson for me.’
|
||
|
||
Max frowned, his pink eyes reflecting deep thought.
|
||
|
||
This time, he had been lucky.
|
||
|
||
But he understood a brutal truth.
|
||
|
||
Luck wouldn’t always save him.
|
||
|
||
Next time, he might not survive.
|
||
|
||
Next time, there might be no Spirit Vine to save him.
|
||
|
||
He needed to get stronger.
|
||
|
||
Not just in combat.
|
||
|
||
Not just in raw power.
|
||
|
||
But in every possible way.
|
||
|
||
Sighing deeply, Max steadied himself.
|
||
|
||
The battle was over.
|
||
|
||
He was alive.
|
||
|
||
And now—
|
||
|
||
It was time to move forward.
|
||
|
||
His gaze shifted to the doors surrounding him.
|
||
|
||
Each one leading to a different dimension connected to his class.
|
||
|
||
And then—
|
||
|
||
His eyes locked onto the Tai Chi Diagram Door.
|
||
|
||
The entrance to his Soul Palace.
|
||
|
||
’Now that my soul force has increased tremendously…’
|
||
|
||
His fists clenched.
|
||
|
||
’It should be easy for me to break open the door to the Soul Palace.’
|
||
|
||
This had been his goal from the beginning.
|
||
|
||
To fully unlock his soul’s potential.
|
||
|
||
Now—
|
||
|
||
He finally had the power to do it.
|
||
|
||
But that wasn’t all.
|
||
|
||
After unlocking his Soul Palace—
|
||
|
||
He needed to visit the Dimension of Spirit.
|
||
|
||
’I can feel the calling from the spirit... Though it hasn’t fully born yet, I can still feel it wants to see me.’
|
||
|
||
It had saved his life.
|
||
|
||
But he knew nothing about it.
|
||
|
||
He needed to learn how its growth been going.
|
||
|
||
He needed to know what it would need to accelerate the growth even further.
|
||
|
||
What it could become.
|
||
|
||
And—
|
||
|
||
If it could grow strong enough to help in any way it could.
|
||
|
||
’But before that…’
|
||
|
||
Max checked his status.

’It’s good.’
|
||
|
||
Max smiled, his eyes scanning his improved stats.
|
||
|
||
His power had grown in every area—a transformation beyond what he had expected.
|
||
|
||
But he didn’t dwell on it.
|
||
|
||
There was something more important.
|
||
|
||
His gaze shifted—
|
||
|
||
Locking onto the Tai Chi Diagram Door.
|
||
|
||
The door to his Soul Palace.
|
||
|
||
’Let’s do this.’
|
||
|
||
Max concentrated, his right fist clenching as it began to glow with a silver hue.
|
||
|
||
The energy was calm, yet powerful—like the force of an unstoppable tide.
|
||
|
||
Before—
|
||
|
||
He had to borrow the soul force leaking from the Soul Palace just to land a single blow on the door.𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
|
||
|
||
But now?
|
||
|
||
With his overwhelming soul force, it was effortless.
|
||
|
||
As natural as breathing.
|
||
|
||
—
|
||
|
||
Taking a deep breath.
|
||
|
||
Max stepped forward.
|
||
|
||
His left leg planted firmly, his glowing fist arched back.
|
||
|
||
He gathered all of his strength, his silver light intensifying.
|
||
|
||
Then—
|
||
|
||
"BREAK!"
|
||
|
||
He threw his punch.
|
||
|
||
BOOM!
|
||
|
||
A thunderous shockwave erupted, rippling through the entire space.
|
||
|
||
The Tai Chi Diagram Door trembled.
|
||
|
||
The impact was so great that the black clouds beneath his feet liquefied—
|
||
|
||
Turning into an ocean of black water in an instant.
|
||
|
||
Then—
|
||
|
||
CRACK!
|
||
|
||
A single fracture appeared on the door.
|
||
|
||
For a moment, it held.
|
||
|
||
And then—
|
||
|
||
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
|
||
|
||
The fractures spread like lightning—
|
||
|
||
Until—
|
||
|
||
SHATTER!
|
||
|
||
The door broke apart, fragmenting like a mirror smashed into a thousand pieces.
|
||
|
||
The pieces glowed for a moment, then vanished into nothingness.
|
||
|
||
Max stared ahead.
|
||
|
||
Beyond the now-broken door—
|
||
|
||
Was his Soul Palace.
|
||
|
||
Just then notifications appeared in Max’s vision.
|
||
|
||
[Congratulations to Max Voidwalker for opening the Soul Palace!]
|
||
|
||
[Soul increased by 10]
|
||
|
||
[Soul Palace opened before reaching the peak of Apprentice Rank...]
|
||
|
||
[Calculating additional benefits...]
|
||
|
||
[Soul increased by 10]
|
||
|
||
[Met one of the three conditions to unlock a unique physique: 1/3]
|
||
|
||
As the notifications flooded his vision, Max felt it again—
|
||
|
||
A massive surge in his soul force.
|
||
|
||
This time, it wasn’t just a slight improvement.
|
||
|
||
It was an obvious, overwhelming increase.
|
||
|
||
On the same scale as when he had absorbed the soul force of the temple’s owner.
|
||
|
||
His entire being pulsed with newfound power.
|
||
|
||
A feeling of weightlessness settled over him—yet at the same time, he felt more grounded than ever before.
|
||
|
||
An increase of 20 points was no joke.
|
||
|
||
The Soul Stat was unique.
|
||
|
||
Unlike Physique and Energy, where increases were noticeable, the Soul Stat was the only one where every increment was below 1 in almost all ranks.
|
||
|
||
This made soul cultivation one of the hardest paths to walk.
|
||
|
||
It was a stat that grew at a painfully slow pace—so slow that most barely noticed any difference unless they encountered a miracle or an opportunity.
|
||
|
||
But—
|
||
|
||
That was precisely why the increase in soul force from breaking open the Soul Palace was so welcomed.
|
||
|
||
It wasn’t just a boost in power.
|
||
|
||
It was a breakthrough.
|
||
|
||
A true transformation that only a few ever experienced.
|
||
|
||
Most importantly—
|
||
|
||
Opening the Soul Palace was the first step to cultivating one’s soul.
|
||
|
||
Just like how warriors cultivated Energy, refining and increasing their ranks—
|
||
|
||
This was the first step in cultivating the Soul.
|
||
|
||
But unlike energy cultivation, which had a clear, structured path—
|
||
|
||
Soul cultivation was different.
|
||
|
||
It was a path where one had to build their own roads.
|
||
|
||
A journey where the destination was unknown.
|
||
|
||
Those who walked it had no idea if the roads they were building would lead them to a realm beyond human limits—
|
||
|
||
Or if they were merely digging their own graves.
|
||
|
||
This was why only a few dared to step onto this path.
|
||
|
||
Because no one knew what lay beyond it.
|
||
|
||
Despite the dangers—
|
||
|
||
For most, breaking open the Soul Palace was mandatory if they hoped to reach the Adept Rank.
|
||
|
||
Just as—
|
||
|
||
Adept Rank experts were required to break open their Gate of Life when they reached their peak.
|
||
|
||
Without this step—
|
||
|
||
They could never advance to Seeker Rank.
|
||
|
||
It was a crucial bottleneck.
|
||
|
||
One that separated the strong from the truly powerful.
|
||
|
||
’Now my soul force is so high…’
|
||
|
||
Max’s smile widened as he felt the sheer depth of his soul power.
|
||
|
||
It was no longer just a hidden stat.
|
||
|
||
It was a force that could rival his physical strength.
|
||
|
||
’Even if someone tries to trap me in an illusion… it probably won’t even affect me.’
|
||
|
||
Illusions worked by invading the soul, manipulating thoughts, memories, and perception.
|
||
|
||
But now—
|
||
|
||
His soul force had become so overwhelming that it would be nearly impossible to deceive him.
|
||
|
||
It was like trying to drown a dragon in a shallow puddle.
|
||
|
||
His attention shifted to the last notification that had appeared.
|
||
|
||
’Three conditions… and a unique physique?’
|
||
|
||
Max’s pink eyes gleamed with intrigue.
|
||
|
||
’Interesting. But… there’s no mention of what the other two conditions are.’
|
||
|
||
He had only fulfilled one condition so far—
|
||
|
||
But what about the other two?
|
||
|
||
He had no idea.
|
||
|
||
’It’s another mystery…’
|
||
|
||
And mysteries were something he had too many of lately.
|
||
|
||
Still—
|
||
|
||
He decided to set it aside for now.
|
||
|
||
There was no point in worrying about something he had no way of solving yet.
|
||
|
||
For now—
|
||
|
||
There was only one thing that mattered.
|
||
|
||
His Soul Palace.
|
||
|
||
With the door shattered, the entrance stood open before him.
|
||
|
||
He could feel the energy within, pulsing, waiting for him to step inside.
|
||
|
||
And so—
|
||
|
||
With a deep breath, Max focused.
|
||
|
||
And then—
|
||
|
||
He stepped forward.
|
||
|
||
Into the unknown depths of his Soul Palace.
