Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

As for the Amalgamation realm, aside from being stronger than the Soul Formation realm by folds. Leo was completely aware of the unique abilities they could muster.

Making him sigh in emptiness upon being unable to wholly understand the said realm.

Akin to watching an anime but only to meet an intense cliffhanger in the end... Worse is, it doesn't have the next episode!

Causing him to overthink the possible abilities they hold.

Sigh~

"Never mind, I should focus on my current situation first.

"I should find a way to increase my foundation before attempting to increase my level and eventually advancing toward the Nascent Soul realm in the future!"

Pondering deep within himself, Leo leisurely closed his eyes as he began to delve within the depths of his soul, staring at the outer shell of his multi-colored liquified Core.

Following the instructions within the wooden book that could help a being determine whether their foundation was solid or not.

Leo began to behold the thin surface of his core, giving him the sensation similar to a feeble glass that was about to crumble upon being caressed by the wind... Allowing him to understand that his current foundation was extremely weak!

Greatly lacking in comparison to the other normal cultivator's core!

If he doesn't find a way to strengthen his foundation, then the chances of him safely advancing to the Nascent Soul realm are almost nil! To the point of almost impossible!

If he remembered correctly, not only would the peak of the Core Formation realm would face and summon the unending onslaught of the heavenly lightning which was times stronger than when they advanced toward the Core Formation realm!

But they would also summon the mysterious Mental Demon that was capable of deceiving one's mind, soul, and heart!

If a cultivator didn't manage to extricate themselves from the Mental Demon in time, then death only awaited them!

There's no chance of survival at all!

Sigh~

"As expected, It was bound to happen due to me heavily relying on consuming negative emotions just to upgrade my level...

"Furthermore, It's not even a week's time when I advanced toward the Core Formation realm, yet I was already at the mid-stage, the peak of Level 6 of the Core Formation realm!

"Only lacking 3,000 exp in order to advance to level 7!"

...

"I guess, I needed to experience more head-on combat in order to strengthen my foundation.

"Furthermore, I also needed to deepen my comprehension regarding my cultivation techniques and skills... Compressing my liquified core till the outer surface of it began to become thick..."

Hmm? Weird...

Taking a deep breath, hurriedly opened his eyes. Leo unfolded a strange expression on his pale face as he examined the rotting skull that suddenly grazed his physique due to the ripple that unceasingly occurred within the unknown depths of the passage.

Making the color of his eyes deepened as he activated its uniqueness, immediately allowing him to sense the dangerous aura that was oozing from the far direction...

Causing him to become curious regarding the thing that was transpiring in its direction...

Churn~

Boom!

In an instant, Leo still hadn't decided whether to check the thing that was happening in the far distance or not, when suddenly, out of nowhere, a weak sound of explosion resounded within the unknown depths of the passage...

Following by the intense quaking within the almost enclosed cave he was currently in as the stalactites above crazily shook under his confused eyes.

Watching some of them fall toward the wet cold ground as they created waves of thick water that splashed toward the environment...

Destroying the serenity of the place as chaos began to take the lead.

...Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Swish~

Bang!

Evading the sharp stones that were falling from the ceiling above... Leo hurriedly activated his invisibility skill, frowning slightly as he rushed toward the direction where he sensed the intense fluctuations of Qi and Rules.

Feeling confused regarding how the Core Formation realm beings managed to enter this place without him noticing...

As for the thought that the one fighting was the inhabitant of this place, the possibility of that happening was quite small.

Since so far, he hadn't noticed the presence of Core Formation realm beings within the diameter of 10 miles away from the entrance of the forsaken place!

Not only did Leo often scout the place to ensure the safety of the bland cemetery above, but Leo was also aware that the rules of the unknown beings were harnessing is extremely hard to comprehend in this kind of place where only the Rules under the Dao of Life, Death, and Darkness were present!

If his senses were not playing tricks on him, the rules that the beings were using were related to blood, flame, ice, and moonlight!

Making him believe that they somehow entered this place from the other entrances that he wasn't aware of!

...

Flash!

Soon, upon entering the passage where the origin of the explosion could be loudly heard, an intense bright light, capable of momentarily blinding one's vision suddenly appeared from the far distance...

Instantly consuming the darkness within the damp atmosphere as Leo hurriedly and Instinctively closed his eyes.

However, although that was the case, his thin eyelids only weakened the light he could see by a considerate amount, still blinding him in the process...

Causing him to grit his teeth due to the discomfort he was experiencing and the intense coldness that the light carried.

Frozing the sweat and water within the surface of his body in the process.

Huff~

Feeling uncomfortable upon losing his sight, Leo hurriedly attempted to activate his divine senses in order to see the figures of his possible enemies in the far distance but only in vain!

Further deepening the crease on his forehead upon feeling that his divine senses were somewhat suppressed in this kind of place, only allowing him to sense the silhouette of the two within his mind which helped him a little...

Boom!

Squeak! (How dare you steal my precious spiritual fruit! I'm just waiting for it to mature yet you ate it when I'm pissing in the far distance!)

Squeak! (Unacceptable! You need to pay for it with your life!)
