Upon seeing these messages, Lothur cracked a big smile as his Super Regeneration made his pain from moments ago quickly disappear.

Meanwhile, a dark substance was starting to emerge from his body, a mark of his advancing body cultivation level.

But all that was on his mind at the moment was his soul cultivation, which had finally been unlocked, and now he could cultivate that part of his being!

Thinking about his soul cultivation, he immediately ordered the system to convert his EVF points into Soul attribute points.

[40.9 points added in SOU at the cost of 1,227 EVF.]

…

[SOU: 2 -> 42.9]

…

[EVF: 1,229 -> 2]

Immediately upon proceeding with this operation, Lothur felt pain again, causing his soul to inflate considerably in seconds.

Once again, the beasts in the surrounding area realized his predicament as they began to sense Lothur’s cultivation level for the first time.

His soul power seemed to be skyrocketing, something that impressed them that he could endure without fainting.

But after seeing all that Lothur was capable of, these creatures no longer doubted him.

They would watch Lothur for a while longer until the sounds of agony from his mouth finally ceased.

When he finally felt his cultivation stabilizing, Lothur slowly rose from where he was lying, looking down at himself. Amidst this, he was trying to get used to the feeling of his soul, which he had never felt before.

Now he had a soul as strong as one of someone at the 9th Transformation. But because of his physical characteristics, his soul cultivation would appear to be similar to that of someone at level 16.

This was because the soul was connected to the body. When one managed to activate it, usually something that happened in the 1st Revolution, such a person could use both the power of their physique to strengthen the soul and that of the soul to strengthen the physique.

Usually, people during the 1st Revolution would have average physical power equal to their soul power. And since it became easier to cultivate the soul after reaching the 2nd stage, people usually used soul power to strengthen their bodies if needed. ．𝗻𝐞𝘁

But Lothur was a freak who had physical power greater than soul power. So his soul benefited from his physical power, which is why his soul level seemed higher.

But with his current soul power, he couldn’t do much.

Not only because of its weak value compared to his physical characteristics but because he had no soul techniques.

Anyway, Lothur was more than happy with his current situation, having recovered the incomplete part of his being!

Because he already had three parts of his spirit body due to his Soul Bones, he was not unable to use his soul power.

Through his Soul Bones’ abilities, he could use his soul power in conjunction with his physical powers!

Thinking of this, Lothur immediately tried something new.

He tried to utilize his visual ability using his physical and soul characteristics.

When he inserted his soul power into his eyes, he felt his visual ability immediately evolve.

The spiritual energy within the beasts in that area seemed more noticeable than before, his vision seemed to reach a more significant distance, and he could see through things more easily.

To get an idea before he could see through two levels of the labyrinth he was in. But currently, with just the addition of his soul power into the equation, he could easily see through three levels.

His senses had also improved considerably. Before, he would only know someone’s level through system information and would have no idea how strong certain opponents were.

But now, even without the help of the system, he could sense the cultivation of those in his surroundings and, through this estimate, how strong someone was.

He couldn’t see the attributes of someone at level 19 or stronger. But Lothur was sure that if someone like that appeared near him, he could more or less estimate how many times stronger than him that being was.

In this moment of contemplation, Lothur suddenly looked at the altar where the leaf he had absorbed the powers inside of it lay.

When he did so, the young Ritter immediately realized what he had been unable to see earlier.

Several auras were circulating below the area beneath the metal leaf, each extremely powerful.

They were moving in a way as if they were attacking something, preparing for something.

His eyebrows narrowed, and he said. “The sealed demons in that area are trying to break the seal.”

“What?” The level 18 toad and some of those level 17 beings exclaimed.

“What are you talking about, human? Can you see them? Were you successful in absorbing what was in our sacred item?” That toad urged.

“Yes. I advanced levels because of that… Anyway, if we don’t do something, I’m afraid that the demons sealed in this area will manage to awaken from their current state. What can we do to stop them?”

Those beings were silent for a moment, fearing this would happen, as it would mark the end of this Secret Realm and all lives here.

“The only alternative I know of would be to use that item… But if we do that, we won’t be able to reinforce the seal in area 18. If that happens, we will still face problems anyway.” The giant toad commented in a terrible tone.

But Lothur then said. “Use this leaf here, then. I will take care of the seal of this area 18 on my own. I guarantee I can handle what’s there, but I can’t promise the same with what’s here.”

Only three remnants of demons were in that area of the graveyard that Lothur had passed earlier. Meanwhile, there were 8 of those beings in this place!

That toad didn’t know if Lothur could keep his promises. Still, with no alternative, it decided to go through with it, jumping in front of the altar and beginning the addition of this new item over the old seal that was there.
