Chapter 187: Serendipity Enlightenment From Effortful Focus

Rin and Erix got a good haul from the group, but it wasn't useful to them.

According to Lilith, they could sell it for a reasonable sum and exchange the two valuable Insight Elemental Fruits of Earth and Fire element with other Insight Elemental Fruits that Erix and Rin require at Fallen Land's market or trading centers.

Insight Elemental Fruits were very rare in the wild and also one of the rewards for some Abyss Events.

After the battle, everyone continued with their training.

Rin and Erix hadn't spent one hour on Limitless Plane yet, so they entered shortly and finally finished the Spiritual Eye formation.

The moment they formed the entire formation, the chaotic whirls around them were forcefully absorbed in an eccentrically patterned single eye.

The world cleared around them, and they looked at each other with shock.

It took them a bit over half a month, but they finally finished the formation and acquired their new spiritual power!

[Spiritual Mystic Eye]

_Description: this eye has already merged with your soul and consciousness, replacing your Spirit Sense with Spiritual Eyes.

_Effects:

—> Spirit +100.

—> The power of Spiritual skills increases by 20%.

—> Spirit Focus: By using the Spiritual Mystic Eye to comprehend anything, you will enter Spirit Focus, which will increase your learning and comprehension abilities depending on your innate improvement and focus level.

_Note: Spiritual Mystic Eye is a foundation-type Spirit ability and can evolve depending on the user.

"This is awesome!" Rin's eyes shone.

"Yeah," Erix grinned. "It's a big boost to our overall power."

The Spirit Force's most basic function in combat was universal strengthening. For instance, if they used a skill and used 100 Spirit Force in it, the skill's every aspect would be boosted, according to the Spirit stat x 100 Spirit Force.

So the stronger their Spirit stat, and the more amount of Spirit Force they possess, their overall power would automatically increase.

The way people used their Spirit Force in battle varied from person to person and their wits. Unlike Mana, which can be recovered quickly via potions and skills, the Spirit Force could only be restored naturally over time and by meditating.

"The only problem is that it doesn't say how to evolve this power," Rin said, thinking for a second before she shrugged. "Whatever. Even if we find the method and way to evolve it, we won't be able to do it now."

"Yeah, we just got the power," Erix wryly smiled and added, "Anyway, we still have thirty-four minutes, so let's make full use of it."

"Tenebria, eh? Nice name," Rin grinned and gestured thumbs up before turning to Erix. "Back to the main point. What's going on with Erix?"

"You want to do the same?" Tenebria chuckled.

"It's not in my control," Rin shrugged.

"But it's in your capabilities," Tenebria smiled. "Just like how you reached 3rd realm of Lightning affinity at absurd speed and even attained attribute-concept for it, Erix is also doing the same, but..."

"But?" Rin pressed, her eyes eager. She wanted to know!

Tenebria looked at the increasing metal storm and Erix at the center as her smile slightly widened.

"But he is doing it at a whole another level of power. The quality of power he is attaining is a few times higher than yours."

"A few times?!" Rin was dumbfounded. "So, like, he is manifesting an attribute concept of his own for his Metal affinity, but that attribute concept is plainly more powerful than mine in its general effects?"

Rin looked at her attribute-concept.

[Crimson Onyxbolt]

-Type: Attribute-Concept.

_Description: An attribute concept manifested from the flowing blood of conflict and darkness of one's heart that manifested as dreadfully punishing Crimson Onyxbolt lightning, bearing crimson red and onyx black color.

_Effect: Your lightning attacks deal 15% extra damage and disrupt the target's focus and senses when hit. If those injured by your lightning have blood in their flesh, they will receive Bloodbane Debuff.

—> Bloodbane: Weaken the potency of the target's blood, reducing their Strength by 15% and reducing their healing by 99%, which gradually reduces depending on the target's resistance.

'My attribute-concept is considered powerful according to Lilith. The last one who got this attribute-concept from here was a hundred years ago...'

Rin thought as she looked at Erix amidst the dreadful and exotic storm.

"A few levels higher than that," Tenebria smiled.

"How powerful would that be?" Rin mumbled as her eyes shined. She wanted to see this new power of Erix as soon as possible!

But then she remembered something.

"It's been around two minutes," Rin turned to Tenebria urgently and anxious, "We have less than 3 minutes! If we get kicked out of here, Erix's enlightened state will break!"

"You have to do something!" Rin with a severe yet pleading face. She wanted Erix to finish his enlightenment and acquire his power! It would be terrible if he failed after getting this close.

"That..." Tenebria looked at Erix and then slowly looked at Rin, her expression somber.
