Chapter 571: Devourer Faction Monsters
As Atlas climbed up the Mountain of Will, he began to notice his ultimate manual circulating on its own.
In the extreme pain of the trial, the energy within his body surged faster and faster.
“I can train in this virtual trial?” Atlas thought in surprise.
In the past trials, no matter how much pain he endured, it never provided any noticeable benefit.
Yet now, as he ascended the mountain, his cultivation speed accelerated to thousands of times its normal rate.
And this was when he had barely climbed 1% of the mountain. If he reached the summit, Atlas could only wonder how much benefit it would grant him.
With this realization, Atlas no longer cared about the pain. He began to embrace it, even enjoy it.
If enduring such a trial gave him strength, it was no different from his daily routine.
Though more painful, it also provided far greater rewards.
As time passed and he climbed halfway up the mountain, the energy within him began circulating millions of times faster than normal.
However, Atlas’s pace slowed.
Carrying the burden of will inflicted not only physical pain but also psychological torment.
Even with his ultimate physique, the
Unrivaled Will
, Atlas’s mind began to blur under the strain.
Yet, no matter how much pain or misery he felt, Atlas did not give up.
When he could no longer walk, he crawled. When his hands and feet gave out, he used his head to push himself forward. Slowly but steadily, Atlas continued his ascent.
Thanks to his ultimate physique, he managed to stay conscious.
The pain never lessened, but it gave him the resolve not to surrender.
As epochs passed, Atlas felt his cultivation nearing a breakthrough into the Tier-11 realm.
However, as if by instinct, he suppressed his advancement.
Instead of advancing, he concentrated the surging energy on his
path of law
.
Epoch after epoch, Atlas unconsciously fully mastered his stream of law.
With time passing, the stream of will within him expanded into a surging river.
When Atlas finally reached the peak of the mountain, his river of will had nearly grown into an ocean.
“It’s enough,” the Supreme Law of Will muttered, awakening Atlas from his blurry state.
“Huh?”
Feeling refreshed, Atlas realized his power had reached an unprecedented level.
“What is—”
“It’s the power of your physique and your ultimate manual…” the Supreme Law of Will explained.
As Atlas climbed the mountain, the Supreme Law of Will detected a unique energy circulation from him.
Seizing the opportunity, he mobilized his reserves of energy to create an accelerated training ground for Atlas, enhancing the trial’s effects.
Unfortunately, before Atlas’s river of will could fully transform into an ocean, the Supreme Law of Will’s energy reserves had grown dangerously low.
If it had dropped further, the bindings holding the will of all beings would have collapsed.
Forced to intervene, the Supreme Law of Will cut off Atlas’s training.
Understanding the situation, Atlas quickly bowed in gratitude.
“It doesn’t matter—it’s my duty,”
“Duty?”
Instead of answering, the Supreme Law of Will began binding Atlas, forming a contract with a perfect 100% bond. Experience new stories on m v|l e’-NovelFull.net
Atlas, recognizing the opportunity and knowing better than to resist, allowed the binding to be complete without hesitation.
In moments, the two were officially bound.
Feeling his power surge again, Atlas couldn’t help but feel the excitement.
Eager to test his strength in the subsequent trial, the Supreme Law of Will suddenly stopped him.
“You are not suitable for the next trial. You would only waste your time on it,” the Supreme Law of Will stated firmly.
Atlas was already bound to the Supreme Law of Will to a 100% degree.
Proceeding to the subsequent trial would only earn him some treasures.
However, as the Son of the Plane, a set of ultimate treasures was already destined for Atlas. Choosing hastily would only hinder his future growth.
More importantly, knowing Atlas’s recklessness, there was a real possibility he might attempt the Supreme Law of Origin trial without thinking.
That trial was not something one could simply pass.
Participants either needed to find an alternative method, give up entirely, or risk being consumed and losing themselves.
With Atlas’s unyielding stubbornness, he would almost certainly fall into the latter category, succumbing to the trial and losing himself completely.
“So, what should I do?”
“Come with me. I’ll take you to the real Mountain of Will. That’s the place you should train,”
“The
real
Mountain of Will?!”
If the virtual Mountain of Will had already strengthened him to such an incredible degree, what could the real one offer?
It may even propel him into the Overlord realm without him realizing it.
After sending a message to his master about his new training plans, Atlas geared up, ready for another round of excruciating growth.
…
Meanwhile, in another trial, three individuals comparable to the top three primordial candidates had reached the 161,801st trial.
Facing the Supreme Law of Destiny, these three monsters showed no trace of fear.
Unlike the primordial candidates, who relied on absolute talent or ultimate treasures to pass, the trio depended solely on raw, overwhelming power.
Among the three, Nyx, the living incarnation of the Abyss Will, only felt excitement.
Not content to remain forever limited as a dimensional will, the Abyss Will had created Nyx as its incarnation.
Although Nyx was only in the Tier 10 realm, the raw power he possessed was not something a virtual Supreme Law could withstand.
Then there was Sira, a clone of the Overlord Zerg Queen.
Despite disregarding her direct bond with the Supreme Law of Infinity, Sira refused to lose the power she once held.
Creating a clone more talented than herself, she sought to contract a Supreme Law through an alternate path.
As an Overlord who had once completed the trials herself, the challenges set by the Supreme Law of Destiny were mere child’s play,
Lastly, there was Zar, the Void Beast Prince.
Unlike Nyx or Sira, Zar was neither an incarnation nor a clone of an Overlord power.
However, his origin was still extraordinary.
As one of the creatures born with the conception of the Aeon Plane, Zar’s talent was unmatched.
The sheer energy required for his conception took trillions of epochs.
If Zar hadn’t awakened only a few million epochs ago, he might already have become an Overlord, capable of suppressing all others!
Facing these three monstrous entities, the leisurely supreme laws grew solemn.
“These monsters! What are they doing in this kids’ trial?” the Supreme Law of Origin muttered with a sigh.
