Ascension & Power
The monsters in the Primordial Untamed Jungle were growing too fast. Their numbers and individual combat prowess skyrocketed much faster than Michael could respond. He was in need of more power…more Seals, and more Soultraits.
He was not yet at the 4th Tier, but most monsters in the surroundings were High Beasts, Superior Existences. However, there were also many Mythical Existences. Their numbers were shockingly high, forcing Michael to unlock his other Soultraits and upgrade them in the following weeks. Of course, Michael never stopped practicing Rune Vortex in those weeks. The vortex in the Energy Pillar expanded, and it wouldn't be long before the fusion of Rune Vortex and Energy Pillar was completed.
