Slipstream

Once the toxic gaseous planet had been transformed into pure energy and absorbed, Michael reached the Late rank of Tier-7. He felt much stronger than before, but that was evident. Every bit of progress would elevate his combat prowess drastically and allow the God Curses to unleash more of their Divinity without fearing that their power output would kill Michael by accident.

Michael was unsure if reaching Late Tier-7 was within his expectations because the planet he'd absorbed had been massive and infused with several times the amount of mana other planets contained. Still, his progress was much faster than the norm. It took his Energy Vortex only a few months and constant use of the Soullife Arts, Unlimited Enhancement, to complete. Taking that into consideration, as well as the lack of punishment or the aftermath from the Galaxy or the Supreme Human Alliance, Michael devoured a few more planets.
