While Rin went ahead to scout, Erix gathered monsters and put them in his space prisons by overpowering them.
The strongest monster he caught was 73k Power Level, and it was like handling a puppy to Erix as he trapped it within a space prison effortlessly.
During the past month, Erix, Rin, Aria, and Isabella made much progress.
Isabella's progress was reflected in her Power Level. She awakened her 2nd Advanced element, Ice!
She also reached the 2nd realm in her Magma affinity, her first Advanced element, and also reached the 2nd realm in Ice as she focused on these two and progressed in her Spirit stat with others as that was the priority.
However, the most important was that she managed to awaken her first Conceptual power.
"Erix, I want to challenge that seventy-three thousand Power Level monster," Isabella said as she looked at the dark blue shark with dark indigo blue ice patterns, sizing to a hundred meters in length and twenty meters in height.
"A difference of 20k Power level, eh?" Erix cracked a grin. "Okay. With your arsnal of powers, you should be able to kill that monster."
Isabella's power level was 54k, while the shark monster had a 74k of Power Level.
An hour had almost passed as Zoe, Elena, and the other ten members had already killed around fifty monsters altogether in 1v1 or 1v2 battles.
"Bella-chi gonna fight it alone? I am ready to watch it," Zoe said as she grinned and sat on the sofa beside Erix.
"Zoe," Leon wryly smiled while slightly glaring at his daughter.
"Haha, it's fine. You all fought a lot, so have some rest," Erix said as he waved his hand and created exotic and aesthetic-looking metal sofas with semi-liquid metal materials for seating on the sofas.
Everyone except for Varan and Elena sat down. Those two were killing the last two monsters in two separate 1v1 fights.
Meanwhile, Isabella went ahead and faced the shark monster frozen in space.
She took out her specially crafted item, a staff with a magic potent orb made from metals attributed to her.
"Erix, I am ready," Isabella said with a nod.
With her control, she even sped up that process, making her defense stronger.
'I can defeat it!' Isabella clenched her fist, thrilled. Soon afterward, a hit of pink appeared on her cheeks. 'I have to use it and attack to win.'
Isabella's concept was unique, but it was birthed not because she chased it, but because her way of life awakened it automatically.
It happened twenty days ago, but Isabella didn't tell to anyone, except that her concept's power directly affected her combat power.
The surprising thing was that she even managed to reach 2nd realm in it five days ago, directly jumping to 13th rank due to getting a boost of another 10k points.
"Can she really kill it?" Varan muttered. "That Shark also has a conceptual power, and it's defensive."
Erix nodded. The monsters here had conceptual powers as well on top of having powerful physiques.
Everyone needed advanced and potent skills to kill them after finding their weak points.
"Boss, what do you think?" Beatrice curiously asked. "Why doesn't Isabella tell us about her concept? Do you know about it?"
"I got no idea yet," Erix wryly smiled as he shook his head and focused on the battle. "See if you can glean something from this."
Isabella blocked two more attacks while her aura started turning fleeting and lighter. However, the potency of her Magma and Ice elemental zones suddenly increased by a fold.
"Woah!"
"What is that boost in power?"
"She used her concept, but what happened?"
"I can also only feel the conceptual-type power, but don't know what kind of power it is."
Everyone was confused, while Erix narrowed his eyes.
He fully focused his Spiritual Mystic Eye, and put all his consciousness on it, to see exactly what nature of thought power and concept of Isabella's Conceptual power.
