Three Years in a Coma

"2,000 imperial paths can amplify power by 200,000 times!" 

Braydon Neal exclaimed, a smile gracing his lips. 

"And there are still 1,000 newly ascended imperial paths that can increase my power by 1,000 times!"

…

Braydon said all that calmly.

The second level of the emperor realm was undoubtedly a hundred times stronger than that of a newly ascended emperor. 

The augmentation in power was truly formidable.

"Follow me," urged the old artifact spirit, sounding perplexed.

With a swift swoosh, Braydon's surroundings blurred, and he found himself standing in a vast grassland. 

Stretching endlessly, the green expanse was populated by humanoid apes. 

Ten of these creatures stood before him, emanating a formidable pressure. 

Each of them possessed the ability to unleash power 10,000 times their own.

"Kill them, and you'll earn the right to access Master's basic inheritance," the artifact spirit stated calmly.
