Chapter 186: Fourth Rank Grandmaster And Fourth Rank Mage

The moment Apollo stepped out and checked the time, his eyes widened slightly. "Damn," he muttered under his breath. He had lost 1,600 Sky Points, which meant he had spent two hours and forty minutes in the Temple of Laws.

It seemed like a lot, especially compared to his previous visit, where he only spent a few minutes breaking through the domain level in two laws. But back then, his understanding of those laws had already been high—three years of hard work and accumulation. They just needed a final push.

Space law, however, was different. He hadn’t even reached 10% before, and space itself was notoriously one of the hardest laws to comprehend. So, although he had spent nearly three hours this time, it had been worth it. His understanding of the space law had skyrocketed to 45%, a massive leap, and he had firmly stepped into the domain stage and even reached the middle stage of it.

Despite the cost, Apollo felt it was well worth the price. Fortunately, he still had enough Sky Points to proceed with his breakthrough to the fourth-rank Grandmaster level in the Energy Core Room. Having collected more than four thousand points since arriving in Sky City, he was well-prepared for the next phase of his cultivation.

He still had over 2,400 Sky Points left—more than enough to fund his breakthrough to the fourth rank in the Energy Core Room. Apollo smirked, his confidence growing. The points were just a tool, after all, and the investment in himself would undoubtedly yield returns far beyond the cost.

He made his way toward the Energy Core Room, his steps steady, his mind focused. The energy within Sky City was abundant, but the Energy Core Room was unique—one of the most optimal locations in the city for breakthroughs for someone like him who needed who knows how many times more energy than others.

Upon arriving, he observed the towering structure of the Energy Core Room and couldn’t help but feel its mysteries, even though it was the second time he had come.

The room was filled with concentrated energy drawn directly from the core that looked like a star, providing the perfect conditions for those on the verge of major advancements. The hefty price tag of 300 Sky Points per day reflected this privilege, but Apollo had experienced its effectiveness and was certain that it was worth every point.

"Time to break through," he muttered, stepping into the room.

Apollo entered a secluded chamber that needed an extra hundred sky points a day within the Energy Core Room.

The walls glowed with a faint blue light, and the air was thick with raw, untapped energy. Apollo could feel the immense power around him; almost it was like a wave of tsunami waiting for him to absorb it.

Sitting down in a lotus position, Apollo closed his eyes and began circulating energy, drawing in the energy around him. It rushed into his body like a tidal wave, invigorating him as it coursed through his veins and filled his spirit.

Time started to pass slowly. The body was reaching the optimal condition for the breakthrough in the warrior path, and he didn’t know how much time it took, but the moment arrived.

This was it—the moment he had prepared for. His body, mind, and soul were in perfect harmony. With his unparalleled understanding of multiple laws, his physique strengthened through relentless training, and his spirit sharpened by countless battles and strong will, he was ready.

Apollo’s thoughts became focused as he directed the energy into the core of his being. He could feel the barrier to the fourth rank looming ahead—strong but not impenetrable. For most, it would be a wall of insurmountable difficulty, but for him, it was just the final obstacle before his true ascent.

Boom!

Apollo felt an overwhelming surge as he shattered the mysterious barrier within, triggering a transformation in his body. Like a starving beast, his body hungrily devoured the surrounding energy at a terrifying speed. Every organ, every bone, and every drop of blood began to evolve, right down to the cellular level.

His understanding of the various laws came to life in resonance with his being. From the void, a mysterious and powerful aura of law emerged, as if bestowed by the heavens. This aura enveloped him, soothing his body as it merged with every fiber of his existence. Each cell absorbed the essence of the laws, enhancing his talent and potential bit by bit.

Apollo could feel the profound changes. His body wasn’t just growing stronger—it was becoming something greater, something far beyond what it had been before.

At the moment of his breakthrough, Apollo soared past the ranks of even the most celebrated geniuses, leaving them far behind. His mastery over multiple laws, all at the domain level, was unprecedented, and the transformation it brought was nothing short of extraordinary.

The change within Apollo was still ongoing, growing more profound with every second. His body, mind, and spirit were evolving beyond anything that others could dream of.

This wasn’t just an ordinary breakthrough—it was a monumental leap forward. Each law he had mastered was imbuing his essence with their power, reshaping him into something far superior.

And they were since, at the domain stage, the infusion from the heaven and earth law was massive from just a single law. His energy infusion because of the single law domain was equal to the geniuses who understand two or three laws to breakthrough, and not to mention he masters no one or two but five domains.

Apollo could have mastered the domain of Devour, which would have made it his fifth domain, but it carried a sinister nature. Unlike the other domains, Devour was difficult to improve through simple comprehension alone—it required him to absorb and consume the essence of living beings, a method that felt quite eerie and evil.

For now, Apollo was content with mastering the five law domains. Even without fully embracing the law of Devour, the transformation taking place within him was extraordinary. The fusion of these four domains and the law of devouring—each bringing its own power and mystery—were creating unprecedented changes in his body and soul.

This feat, remarkable even by the standards of Rion, was something that would likely astonish beings far beyond his world. In the vast universe filled with countless worlds and dimensions, few could claim to have comprehended so many domains at his age, let alone reach such mastery while still on the cusp of a Grandmaster breakthrough.

At the moment he also felt the difference between the laws he mastered and understood their potential for growth by the amount of mysterious heaven and earth aura it granted him after his breakthrough.

Among the five domains he can judge, the Ice domain brought him the least mysterious energy, then the five-element domain and the death domain were of the same level, even though, because of his high-level understanding of the law of death, it brought him more energy, but comparing, he felt they were at the same level.

His second strongest was the space domain, which brought a fifty per cent more mysterious heaven-defying aura than the two domains of five elements and death.

But the most powerful and shocking was his Sword Domain, which brought almost twice the heaven and earth aura that combined four domains brought.

This awe-inspiring phenomenon revealed the boundless potential of Apollo’s Eternal Sword Domain—a unique and unparalleled domain that far surpassed even the revered and difficult-to-master domain of Space.

The Eternal Sword Domain was no ordinary law; it was a force unto itself as it was the combination of many laws and his unique will, a realm of power that held within it limitless possibilities for growth and mastery.

He also felt the power of the law of devour, as even though it was far from the law domain level, the energy it brought was similar to his ice law, showing that its potential wasn’t weaker than the space law.

The infusion of this gift from heaven continued for half an hour, but the change that has taken place in just a half hour was unimaginable.

But Apollo didn’t stop there. He had just broken through in the warrior path, but not yet in the mage path. With determination burning in his eyes, he sought to test whether he could receive another infusion of the same heaven-defying aura, one that would push his potential to an even greater height.

Slowly but steadily, the seventeenth rune began to take shape within his mind. It pulsed with power as if a new world was being created inside his consciousness. His stabilized spiritual sense, which had calmed after his warrior breakthrough, suddenly surged with renewed vigour. His spiritual strength expanded at an alarming rate, even faster than before.

It felt like every rune he had previously engraved was being reborn, evolving under the pressure of his new insights. He could feel his mind opening up, gaining clarity and expanding beyond norms.

The process continued for a few minutes, and finally, with a burst, he finally also broke through with the completion of the seventeenth rune and became a fourth-rank master mage.
