'That's quite a lot…'

As I checked the system log that seemed to have piled up quite a bit, I was slightly surprised by the number of notifications as well as their content.

It turned out that as I was concentrating my mental energy to protect myself, I didn't even notice as several notifications sounded out. That couldn't be considered strange, especially with how tense I was.

'It looks like even the system recognizes what I just managed to do as something major…'

Even I believed that bonding mental energy with elements was half-crazy just a while ago, so it was natural that it wasn't something normal.

After all, not only did the system formalize the method into a new 'Mind Ability' of its own, but it even provided me with two titles at once.

'This 'Elemental Telekinesis' seems to have a greater meaning to it.'

Previously, starting from the point that my mental energy has reached the level of being a 'Telekinetic Force', I could already tell that it was advancing towards becoming a more 'tangible' energy that had a larger impact on physical matter. However…

'It seems like I was slightly mistaken…'

It wasn't just that! The main point of this advancement was so that it could reverse the formula, it was no longer just intangible energy that could influence the tangible matter, it now had the properties of both states, thus having the ability to affect both states as well!

If that was taken into consideration, then it wasn't wrong to say that my mental energy may have already started to surpass my other paths. After all, even the system recognized it as a path now.

Furthermore…

'That should work as well, right?'

Not wasting time on theoretical testing since I already confirmed my mental energy's new ability, I immediately mobilized my sword essence to form an essence sword before engulfing it with my mental energy!

[ You have achieved bonding between mental energy and weapon energy! ]

[ You have created the mind ability, 'Weaponry Telekinesis'! ]

'As expected.'

I wasn't even surprised at this point. If it worked with as complicated as elements, then it would naturally work with something that's more controllable like weapon energy.

Moreover, with both abilities in hand, mental energy was no longer an isolated path, it was now interconnected with the other two paths. It was as if everything had just fallen in place.

In addition, that didn't seem to be the end of it yet! 

[ 'Human Pionner'

Title Effect:

- Your affinity with the 'Laws' increases by 5%. ]

[ 'Climber'

Title Effect:

- Your affinity with the 'Laws' increases by 5%.

- Your capability of handling the 'Laws' is augmented by 10%. ]

'Mental energy definitely holds the key to understanding the 'Laws'.'

Just by looking at the two titles obtained from the achievements obtained thanks to realizing 'Elemental Telekinesis', one could tell that it was a huge clue that pointed at the 'Laws' which seemed to stand on the top.

'But it's not like there's much that I could do…'

So far, the advancement of mental energy only relied on one factor, it didn't matter whether I practiced it or not, all that mattered with the growth of my 'Wisdom' stat.

However, unlike how I could originally add points into it without much worry, that was no longer the case. Since my mental energy's tangible property was growing, it couldn't be too far away from my main physical stats, or else my brain might as well blow up. 

At least, both my Strength and Constitution had to keep up with Wisdom aside from the allowed gap.

'I guess I would have to delay my 'climb to the top' for the time being…'

Even though only two stats were required, that didn't mean that I would go ahead with that, letting another stat like Agility fall behind would be greatly detrimental to my battle prowess.

After all, the advancement of Strength mainly relied on maximizing muscle mass. Without the compression effect brought by Agility and even Dexterity, I might slowly turn into a normal tank…

'Well, that's a problem for another time.'

After checking the highlights of the forgotten system log, I slowly walked out of the tower as I took a peek at my last reward.

[ 'Purified Body'

Title Effect:

- Your resistance to Corruption increases by 10%.

- Your resistance to Corruption Will increases by 10%. ]

'That's…'

Having not expected much from a title that came to be with the help of the crystal tower of refinement, I was happily surprised by the effects of the title.

Disregarding the base resistance to Corruption that I had almost no need to as the system automatically purified corruption for me, the resistance to Corruption Will was obviously a great boon.

If my understanding of Corruption Will to this point was correct, then its resistance included both the effect that almost destroyed my mentality when I entered this space as well as the oppression that the 'figure' used, both of which were obvious weak points of mine.

Now that I obtained 10% of resistance coupled with the resistance I naturally obtained from overcoming both situations, I wouldn't have to suffer that much next time.

Most importantly, if my guess regarding the 'figure' was true, then I might have just obtained a great shield that would be very effective at the end-game…

'Well, before thinking of that… let's first get out of here!'
