Meanwhile, in the Imperial Prison...
Lothur had just regained his lineage ability and was finishing absorbing his fifth Soul Bone after raising his Soul attribute with the EVF points he had absorbed today.
The bone he had absorbed was a humerus of a General demon, Silver-grade, which had an ability related to the flame element.
However, when he opened his eyes after absorbing this Soul Bone, all that was in Lothur's mind was the level advancement he was experiencing now!
[Name: Lothur Ritter]
[Physique: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger]
[Bloodline: Life Devourer]
[Soul Cultivation: level 18 -> 19]
[Body Cultivation: level 18 -> 19]
[STR: 582.6 -> 670]
[CON: 1,469.2 -> 1,689.6]
[DEX: 522.2 -> 600.5]
[AGI: 645.1 -> 741.9]
[INT: 325.4 -> 374.2]
[PER: 660.1 -> 759.1]
[WIL: 504.7 -> 576.9]
[SOU: 519 -> 596.9]
[EVF: 4.442 -> 2]
As he felt the significant changes arising in his body, Lothur noticed each of his Soul Bones emitting strange sensations, some burning, others freezing.
At the same time, his Spirit Body seemed to want to show itself once again, becoming much more solid than last time.
Noticing this, Lothur felt his abilities were somehow evolving and merging, but this feeling didn't last long.
When the Spirit Body calmed down a bit, he began to feel his Soul Bones again separately as they evolved.
Soul Bones could evolve on rare occasions. But one of them was precisely the stage advancement when a cultivator would experience a significant increase in spiritual energy and laws.
With this, the progress bars of Lothur's Soul Bones began to advance as each increased in size, reaching parts they hadn't previously.
[General Demon Skull Soul Bone] [Rank: Gold]
[Progress: 40% -> 55%]
...
[Monarch Demon Fibula Soul Bone] [Rank: Silver]
[Progress: 71% -> 95%]
ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm ...
[General Demon Rib Soul Bone] [Rank: Silver -> Gold]
[Progress: 92% -> 8%]
...
[Monarch Demon Femur Soul Bone] [Rank: Silver]
[Progress: 69% -> 89%]
...
[General Demon Humerus Soul Bone] [Rank: Silver -> Gold]
[Progress: 78% -> 1%]
When his Soul Bone improvements stopped, Lothur felt a great relief in his body as his bones stopped changing internally in his body.
He then quickly regenerated himself from the situation caused by this development, smiling as he stood up from the floor where he was sitting earlier.
As he did so, he looked at the skill he had just gained from his new Soul Bone.
[Prometheus Flames] [Rank: Gold]
[Characteristics: ability related to the user's Soul. With it, the user can manipulate the flame element to form scorching warriors and varied forms of attacks based on the same element.]
[Progress: 1%]
'Flames, eh? I believe this can be used as a soul-focused technique, in this case, one related to the flame element. Hmm, not bad.' He smiled, knowing that as much as it was nothing extraordinary, it would be worth a lot to someone with as few techniques as he had.
He then decided to test such a thing for the first time, soon circulating his energies through that bone in his right arm.
When he did this, flames quickly appeared from his body as if he were a source of this element.
Meanwhile, what little of that element was free in the surroundings disappeared from where it was while being stolen by him to strengthen what he was about to show this city.
Then, as the City of Darkness decreased in temperature in the farthest areas of Lothur, with any candles and fires going out, an orange silhouette appeared behind him.
Quickly this silhouette took on a humanoid form, with a head that shone so brightly it looked like a small sun.
Those close to Lothur began to feel extreme heat, as clothes and papers began to catch fire just because of their proximity.
Lothur noticed this and immediately deactivated the ability to prevent a large fire from starting there.
His soul was still weak compared to the rest of him. But he could accidentally set fire to the surroundings of the Wildflower Faction headquarters, which could spread throughout the entire City of Darkness.
'Impressive!' Lothur smiled, quite liking this new ability.
But after setting it aside for a moment, he soon checked his other bone that had evolved in quality.
By improving from Silver to Gold, this bone would certainly give him some good surprises!
[Gravity] [Rank: Gold]
[Progress: 8%]
Upon activating the ability of his third Soul Bone, Lothur immediately noticed something different in the sensation he had when circulating his energy through that rib bone.
He pursued the strangeness and tried to change how he activated the ability, slowly generating a different effect of increasing or decreasing the pressure of gravity on those around him.
As he changed his way of using this bone, he focused all his attention on one point, creating a concentrated area of gravitational energy.
Immediately upon forming this, things in the surrounding area began to fly toward it.
First, small artifacts flew out, but soon chairs and furniture were flying into it, trying to form a bigger and bigger cluster of things.
Lothur realized the usefulness of such a thing and soon deactivated this ability, very pleased with this improvement.
'That's quite an offensive development for this skill! If my Will keeps increasing, the day will come when I can destroy an entire city with just this!'
As he finished analyzing the effects of his advancement on his Soul Bones, Lothur turned his attention to the fact that he was now at the 4th stage.
He was now a Saint!
But this didn't mean that he would just get a new title or that his attributes had increased.
The main characteristics that improved in cultivators after stage advancement could not be measured in numbers, so those values of his attributes hid his current reality!
A Mortal Warrior would only have physical abilities. Still, upon advancing a stage and becoming a Spiritual Warrior, they would gain the ability to activate elemental techniques and form energy attacks.
When Spiritual Warriors evolved and became Transcendents, they would gain more control over their energy and understanding of the Natural Laws and would be able to fly and better use all of their abilities.
But when a Transcendent advanced and became a Saint, they would gain spatial controls, which naturally greatly elevated their position as cultivators in this society!
Knowing this, Lothur soon tried something different...
