”Should I drink this golden liquid right now?”

Neo asked aloud.

There was no one around to hear him.

But there was never any need for that.

[If you do that a few more times, you might gain a reputation for something that actually fits you.]

”It is only the two of us here. What do you think?”

[You are the only one here. I am not.]

”Fine.”

[Fine.]

’So what do you suggest.’

[I say you wait. Normal people won’t be able to consume that much of the liquid. It might have other uses. And if nothing else, you can always sell it.]

Neo raised an eyebrow at that.

’Don’t you want to Devour it? Does it not suit your imperious taste?’

[If you put your head to proper use, you can gain more with that thing. Far more than any paltry addition it would contribute to your cultivation.]

’Paltry?’

[Paltry.]

Devour affirmed the word.

[You have no idea of the amount of things you will have to do, to improve your cultivation as quickly as possible.]

’Why the rush?’

[There is no rush. Take your time. But always remember that you could have been more serious with your cultivation.]

’Fine. Keep being cryptic.’

[I will. It is for your own good.]

Neo wondered what Devour was on this time around.

He didn’t consume the liquid yet.

He slung the jar on his back, and carried the bucket in one hand.

He only had one hand free to do whatever else he wanted.

He walked to the pathway, uncaring of the danger it emanated.

He stepped inside, and entered into a rest stop.

The path he walked through disappeared.

There was nothing behind him but another solid wall.

The moment he stepped in, all the feeling of danger disappeared.

But Neo knew better than to think it was truly gone.

This place was a rest stop.

It was the only place where no danger could be found in this domain.

The moment he stepped out of here, he would face the full brunt of whatever the domain would throw at him.

He went to the well in the center of the rest stop.

He upended the bucket of riloma in his hand into it, and waited.

The wait was even longer this time.

Long enough for Neo to begin building a new combination of techniques, and then completing it.

Neo knew that he needed technique combinations that were actually strong.

It was not that his current ones were weak.

However, they were just too rudimentary.

They relied more on the fact he was strong, and his opponents were weak to display such absurd capabilities as clearing hundreds of strange creatures at once.

He needed something more powerful, yet refined.

Something that would be more than enough to defeat and kill strong opponents.

Opponents that might be just as strong, or even stronger than him.

[Not bad.]

Devour couldn’t hold back as Neo completed another set of combination techniques.

[If only you could be as serious as this with your cultivation. No matter how many techniques there are, or how refined they may be. Pure strength trumps them all.]

’Spoken like a true brute.’

[What is the point of mastering all the techniques in the world, if you are not strong enough?]

’Revel in the joy of learning.’

[Spoken like a hopeless romantic. Strength is the only truth in this world. When you outgrow your childish thoughts, you will realize this fact.]

’What if it is the only truth? That doesn’t take away the joy I am feeling right now.’

Devour would have shook its head, if it could.

[Neo, building your combat strength is to increase your overall strength. There is no point being a combat genius, if all you focus on is techniques.]

’I hear you.’

Devour went silent.

Neo went to the well, to check the transformation process of the riloma.

It was complete.

It had transformed into a golden liquid that could barely fill his cupped hand.

He scooped it out of the well.

And directly into the bucket.

Where it barely reached anywhere.

But he still kept the bucket.

He planned to gather more riloma.

However, before he moved on.

There was still something he planned to do.

He needed to test if the golden riloma would have any effect on the golden liquid that had already been condensed to the utmost.

A small drop of the golden riloma landed in the jar of super condensed golden liquid.

The transformation was instantaneous.

The golden liquid which had been condensed to the utmost, began to transform.

Its golden luster began to recede, as it turned clear.

Clear as water.

But soon, the transformation it was going through reached its peak state.

A magical multi-colored light began to emanate from it.

The golden liquid had turned into a multi-colored liquid that gave off a wondrous feeling.

Neo stared at the liquid within the jar in shock.

He couldn’t help the next word that came out of his mouth.

”Damn!”

He blinked.

Once.

Twice.

It wasn’t an illusion.

The liquid had truly transformed.

”Good thing I didn’t consume it.”

[Interesting.]

Even Devour couldn’t help but say something.

It was truly interesting.

Whatever value the liquid had before.

It just shot up by a million times.

This was no longer something even Devour could disdain.

[You had best keep it safe.]

Devour was telling Neo something that was common sense.

”Of course, I will.”

Neo thought of the progression that had been happening in the domain.

He was beginning to get a sense of what the Ancient Supreme meant about paths.

Neo knew he would be in very tough fights from the moment he left the rest stop.

He had taken care of the issue of technique.

Another important thing he did now was to reconstruct and reinforce the items in which he stored these important liquids.

By the time he was done, he had the perfect contraption hanging from his back.

It was a large rectangular box with two openings, which led into the two different compartments of the box.

One for the riloma, the other for the wondrous liquid.

He walked out of the rest stop, and into the domain proper.

Any strange creature that appeared now would be strong.

He paid attention to everything around him, and let his thoughts wander as little as possible.

With everything that had been happening here, he could confirm that this was a natural domain.

There would be no powerful cultivator here, overseeing everything.

Now that he was finally alone, he could do as he pleased.

He blinked.

Something fell to the floor.

It was a riloma.

Neo waved it over.

The first strange creature to appear before him, was one that had already broken the limit.

Neo almost smiled when he thought over that fact.

This path was the perfect one for him.

He could already feel the challenge coming.

The moment his first opponent fell, it was like the domain had been stirred.

Hundreds of strange creatures rushed at him from within the tunnel.

All of them at the first limit break.

Neo knew that they weren’t a challenge, despite their numbers.

The ease with which he vanquished them attested to this fact.

In his eyes, they were just free riloma.

And maybe cultivation.

He had noticed that with the number of these strange creatures he had killed.

He should have broken through by now.

If not, he should be very near to the second limit break.

But it seemed that these strange creatures still lacked something.

Something that placed them apart from true beings like humans and demons.

’Why is my cultivation barely improving after all the strange creatures I have killed. Are you keeping their essence for yourself?’

[No. These beings are constructs manifested from the essence of the domain. What I devour from them is that essence, and it is barely enough to replenish the essence you spend.]

Neo knew his combination techniques consumed a lot of essence.

But was the essence from these strange creatures really that little?

The strange creatures at the first limit break weren’t even a challenge for him.

But he knew that they were just the beginning.

Strange creatures at the second limit break appeared for the first time since he entered the dungeon.

But to him, they were still not a challenge, despite how they swarmed him in large numbers.

The only thing it cost him to deal with them, was more essence.

And with Devour giving him a steady, endless supply, it was not a true cost.

It was only when the ones at the fourth limit break appeared that he began to feel some trouble.

He had to start combining even the combination techniques just to deal with them.

It was a good thing that he was alone.

If the others had followed him here, he couldn’t guarantee zero casualties.

Then the ones at the fifth limit break appeared.

This time around, he began to reconsider if it was worth it to enter the path.

But they were just stray thoughts that were instantly quashed.

The ones at the sixth limit break appeared, and he began to feel himself pushed to his limit.

Fighting this many of them was taxing.

Then, there came the change he never expected.

In that instant, he threw away all thoughts of offense.

He pushed his best defensive techniques to the limit.

Yet, it was not enough.
