Chapter 688
Noah reviewed the event that followed the defeat of the ethereal dragon in his mind .
Something like that had never happened to him, but the sudden enlargement of his sea of consciousness had immediately claimed his complete focus .
'I would normally obtain this improvement in more than a week of training . What is happening?'
Noah questioned himself, but it soon became clear to him that the event was linked to the changes applied by his body to his centers of power .
The brown sea under his half-transparent figure didn't reveal anything, and its water radiated the same features that any mental energy would have .
Yet, nothing else could be the cause of what had happened .
'Did my mental energy devour the will of the rank 5 Cursed dragon?'
That question was the only conclusion that Noah could reach at that point .
After all, the black mark on his chest had disappeared, meaning that the Body-inscription spell had failed .
'My dantian processes the breakthrough on its own, and stress doesn't seem to affect it . The credits to that can go to the innate adaptability of the magical beasts and their superior resistance . These features weren't applied to my mind, but my mental energy should have still gained something from the magical beasts' world . '
Noah summarized, but he knew that there was only one way to test that .
A dark layer materialized and adhered to his skin as Noah activated the Dark cover spell before shooting out of the cave .
The loss of his Blood companions didn't affect his battle prowess that much, but he still wanted to return to the southwestern coast of the new continent to test his discovery .
The journey back to the Coral archipelago was uneventful since Noah avoided the crowded areas and ignored the magical beasts that filled the mountain chain .
Noah didn't waste time in social events once reached the islands, and he directly took the teleportation matrix back to the forest of White Woods .
Then, he went looking for any beast in the fourth rank as soon as he flew past the white crowns of the forest .
Noah quickly found a rank 4 Saber-toothed tiger in the middle tier along the eastern border of the azure plain .
He dived on it without hesitation, killing the beast and creating a deep cavity in the process .
The corpse of the tiger was in a terrible state after Noah dragged it underground, but he had made sure to keep its heart intact .
The preparations for the Body-inscription spell were completed in less than ten minutes, and Noah didn't even bother to imbue a specific meaning to its core .
The array of runes appeared again in front of him, and Noah carefully made it take the shape of the tiger before using it to wound his body .
Noah completed the following requirements smoothly, and he focused on the insides of his mental sphere after .
The ethereal figure of the tiger appeared above his sea, but one swing from the saber-shaped rune was enough to subdue it .
Then, Noah focused on his brown mental energy and on the fragments of the tiger's figure that were under the surface of his sea .
To his surprise, his mental energy engulfed the fragments and made them disappear without leaving any trace .
The walls of his mental sphere began to shake, but the tremors stopped in less than a second .
