1800 1800. Awakening

The entirety of Noahs existence advanced when he closed his eyes to start the hibernation. His body had always been the foundation of his harmony. He relied on it to fuse his power with the new features brought by his experience and breakthrough.

Noahs law had been ready to advance to the solid stage long ago, but his dantian had to gather enough energy to fuel the breakthrough. The body didnt have limitations in terms of evolution of his true meaning, but its requirements would make every expert in the world give up on the cultivation journey.

The sole idea of obtaining the energy of a rank 9 creature as a liquid stage existence in the eighth rank was unreasonable. The difference in power between them was as vast as the sky, but those rules didnt apply to Noah.

Noahs existence already allowed him to face beings at the peak of the eighth rank. Dealing with a creature in the ninth rank with the help of his best experts had been easy. It was clear that the liquid stage couldnt contain him anymore, and the energy gathered during the hunt had proven that.

His body advanced while Noah went through a dreamless sleep. The dark matter around him helped the center of power with the process and quickened the various improvements. His flesh, muscles, bones, and organs went through multiple enhancements under the strict supervision of the black hole, and some of the energy that he didnt absorb before ended up helping anyway.

Other changes happened during the breakthrough of his body. Noahs companions had eaten part of the jellyfishs energy to reduce the pressure on his centers of power, and they ended up using it during his sleep.

The energy coming from a rank 9 creature wasnt only more powerful. It had a superior quality that made Noahs companions reach the limits of their current level.

They would have normally required a bit more time to absorb that energy completely and take the last step toward the next tier, but a stronger fuel forced them to advance during Noahs hibernation.

His dantian released waves of ambition that made the companions bodies advance on their own. They had already met the requirements for the breakthrough in terms of energy, so the intense force spreading from Noahs organ triggered the evolution.

The dark world had even expanded inside the hall. The black hole could force workshops capable of benefitting Noahs companions on its own. It didnt take much before Night, Duanlong, Snore, the Demonic Sword, and the parasite crossed the limits of the middle tier and hibernated to reach the new level.

Shafu also contained a lot of energy inside its separate space, so the companions could use it whenever their breakthroughs required more power than expected. The sheer amount of energy contained in that single hall was so intense that the golden walls, floor, and ceiling trembled due to the might thriving in its insides.

Only the six-armed dragon didnt advance. Shafu solidified its position as a peak rank 8 creature, but it didnt take the next step. The creature shared part of Noahs insane requirements, so a single share of the jellyfishs energy wasnt enough to trigger the breakthrough.

The dark world made sure that the waves of energy naturally released by Noahs figure didnt damage the mansion. The breakthroughs went smoothly and didnt cause any problem, but the process almost emptied the stashes of the jellyfishs energy. Shafu ended up being the only one with some fuel left, but it decided to store it.

The dark world flowed back into Noahs figure when he woke up. The black hole updated him about everything that had happened during his sleep, and a smile inevitably appeared on his face when he noticed the power of his companions.

They werent falling behind. They were keeping up with Noahs improvements in their current form.

A wave of darkness spread from Noahs figure when he straightened his position. His ambition overflowed and seeped inside the mansion to improve its structure.

The golden materials gained darker shades, but their nature didnt evolve. It seemed that King Elbas had already perfected those alloys, but the same didnt apply to the overall structure.

King Elbas was a monster, and Noah couldnt even try to understand the depths of his expertise. The mansion featured many inscription methods that the world had lost long ago, but the ambition didnt care about Noahs ignorance.

Thick black lines appeared on the walls, floor, and ceiling as his ambition continued to flow in the area. Noah ignored how most of those inscriptions worked, but his law improved them anyway. It elevated their nature by relying on their intrinsic power.

Some of those inscriptions obtained abilities that even King Elbas didnt know how to replicate. Noahs ambition made them surpass the cultivators expertise on their own, and the mansion only benefitted from it.

The structures energy requirements lowered, the various commands ran faster through the various inscriptions, and its overall sturdiness increased. Even the various weapons spread through the mansion grew stronger as Noahs ambition reached every corner of the large series of buildings.

The other experts had remained inside their respective halls during those years. King Elbas had used the jellyfishs corpse as fuel for the entire mansion. That material had allowed all the cultivators, magical beasts, and hybrids to absorb energy and refill their stashes. They didnt manage to reach the level of their initial preparations, but the process still made them gain many years.

The arrival of Noahs ambition didnt go unnoticed. Everyone in the group knew what it felt to bathe in his law, so they felt surprised when they saw his energy affecting the mansion as a whole and transforming it into something more than a mere habitation with valuable tools.

All the halls grew dark while the experts decided to continue their training. They knew that Noah would return soon, and the mission would resume right after that.

Still, they didnt imagine that the darkness would bring such intense benefits. Some immediately gained insights on certain matters. Others found ways to improve their battle prowess even if they had remained stuck on the same attacks for millennia.

Moreover, the mansion as a whole seemed to provide more energy. The experts didnt know why that was happening, but they were aware of the source of those changes. Noahs energy was unmistakable.

"Can you stop messing with my mansion?" King Elbas voice suddenly resounded inside Noahs hall as a golden figure came out of its walls.

"I can feel the improvements," Noah nodded while revealing a satisfied smile. "Just accept them. Maybe even learn something."

"Are you Divine Demon now?" King Elbas snorted. "Im already studying these improvements, but I dont believe for even a second that you had control over it. Your expertise wouldnt allow you to do that."

"How is the rest of the group?" Noah asked to move the conversation away from that topic.

Noah could see that King Elbas had also reached the solid stage. His cultivation level even appeared above Noahs, but the latter didnt mind it. He could only feel satisfied.

"No breakthroughs," King Elbas explained, "We have been the only two to advance, but everyone has recovered already. The void still has much to offer to us."
