Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 1452: Yom Kippur

In the darkness, a gray-white fire was rising. At first, there were only strands of flames. Gradually, the flames gathered together and formed a complicated network. That was Alan's blood vessels. After three days of digestion and transformation, the swelling Heavenly Void Flame in his body had completely transformed into a secret flame. Void secret flames filled his blood vessels and even seeped into his organs and bones. Void secret flames were strengthening his body. Even though the magnitude of the enhancement wasn't as great as the metamorphosis, even the slightest increase was still an increase. Allen wouldn't refuse such a change.

Right now, the void flames in his body had already filled every blood vessel and organ, and the energy storage nodes were half full. Therefore, his body no longer felt the same swelling sensation as it did when he advanced.

Apart from increasing the Origin Energy capacity, the trial circuit had also awakened another ability. After Judgment Day, the second ability, Yom Kippur, was finally born. Judging from the information released in the trial circuit, this circuit still had one last ability, the Sabbath, that had not awakened. Unfortunately, the information released by the trial circuit was too vague. Alan only knew the name of the last ability, but he didn't know what its purpose was.

As for Yom Kippur, it was a good ability. The previous Judgment Day would reduce the target's Origin Energy level. Even if the level was similar to Allen's, it could also reduce the target's total Origin Energy. Yom Kippur, on the other hand, is activated, and the target of the ability will become the "sinner". Once an attack is committed, it is considered a crime, and Yom Kippur's ability is fully activated, and the target will withstand the backlash of its own power. The degree of backlash depended on the size of the attack. In other words, the heavier the attack, the greater the backlash.

Yom Kippur's duration is 24 hours and the number of yoms is three. Its life cycle is seven days, which means that Allen can use it once before continuing to use it after a week.

There were quite a few restrictions, but they could be very effective. The most powerful aspect of Yom Kippur was that even Autarchs would be affected by this ability, regardless of their rank. Unlike Judgement Day, when it was used on a higher level expert than Allen, his ability was greatly reduced, or even rendered useless.

With the power of Yom Kippur, even if Felius was truly tempted to kill, Alan would still have a chance to take a risk. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look for the Black Emperor to practice.

Of course, in the end, he managed to restrain his excitement. Origin Energy had stabilized and Skyfire had transformed into a secret flame. However, Alan still needed time to familiarize himself with his current strength. Until then, he didn't want to run into Frius. Facing that man with the name of supreme being, no matter how much he prepared, he couldn't be overprepared.

He was currently hiding in a cave. The cave was not this deep and wide. Alan dug another slanted passage in the cave and went to another cave. After entering the cave, he concentrated on digesting the void flames and didn't observe his surroundings. Only after digesting the Origin Energy and extending his perception did he discover any movement behind the cave.

It was a voice.

Alan leaned against the wall of the cave, and a regular muffled sound sounded in his ears, as if someone was beating a drum. Such regular sounds rarely appeared in nature. If it wasn't for nature, it would be man-made. Alan took out only half of Red King and hastened to transport it to Origin Energy. Threads of ashes and flames would emerge from Red King's remnant blades.

The temperature of the Red King remnant blade filled with secret flames was frighteningly high, but there was no hot smoke. Only when it approached the surface of the blade could it feel the shocking heat. This was also the characteristic of the secret flame. It didn't show mountains or water, but its power was frightening. At this time, Red King was comparable to a high-energy beam knife. Allen stabbed it into the cave wall. The hard stone wall was as soft as cheese under Red King's blade, and Allen easily stabbed it to the end. Allen followed the knife and cut it horizontally. In just a short moment, Allen dug out a passageway for him to crawl through.

This was how he had dug it all the way here before. Under the high heat of the secret flames, the earth, rocks, and sand had been directly catalyzed into black powder. There was basically no need to clean it up. Alan dug the tunnel quickly and conveniently. However, in the blink of an eye, he had already penetrated more than ten meters deep into the rock stratum.

As they went deeper into the rock, the sound grew louder and clearer. As Allen thought, someone was beating the drum, not the natural sound of the mountain, as evidenced by the occasional shouts of the drum.

After digging for five to six meters, Red King stabbed his saber in, and the pressure suddenly lessened. Alan knew that he had reached the end of the dig. He carefully cut a small hole in Red King, and fire immediately shone in from outside. He saw through the small hole that there was a natural cave outside. The cave was very spacious. Stalactites could be seen everywhere, and not far away was an Earth Lake. The fire lit up the surroundings and reflected the colorful colors of the stalactites.

There was a group of uncivilized Barbarians surrounding the shore of the Underground Lake. These natives wore beast skirts, held torches and spears, and were dancing to the drums. Among them were seven or eight women, all of whom were from the Bar tribe, including those from the barbarian tribes. Especially their hide-wrapped appearances, they were even more wild and tempting.

Alan simply dug out another small hole so that both eyes could see. From the looks of it, this should be a barbarian settlement. These Barbarians lived in a natural cave deep in the mountain. There is an Earth Lake here. If there is a lake, there is water. If there is water, then you can survive.

Agares lacked fresh water resources. Both empires relied on the Kidds or other allies to deliver fresh water regularly. They didn't want this barbarian tribe in the mountains to monopolize an Earth Lake. This was simply a huge fortune.

If it wasn't for the fact that Mokedan was too far away from here, Ellen would have made a lot of money just by transporting water.

By this time, the men by the lake had finished dancing. They put down their wooden spears and torches, took off their animal skirts, and walked towards the women in a few lines. They took turns with the women. Allen was speechless when they saw them together.

The dance just now had a bit of a ritual flavor. It seemed that in this tribe, having sex and reproduction was not only an important matter, it was also sacred. However, this wasn't hard to understand. Every tribe couldn't grow without a population. Where did the population come from? This was not obvious at a glance, otherwise, why would those ancient tribes on earth worship the reproductive organs as sacred objects? In this regard, the two completely different planets actually have shocking similarities, it is unknown whether those researchers would be surprised from ear to ear.

Allen was not a scholar, nor was he in the mood to study the behavior of the natives. He just wanted to turn around and leave, going back and forth from where he came from. Unexpectedly, a miserable scream and a loud roar suddenly sounded from outside. He looked outside and saw that the other side of the cave was full of people, as if another tribe's barbarians had charged in.
