After erging on the second floor, Jason stretched his body, while trying to put together the intel he received just a few monts ago.
The number of rit points he received was more important than one thought, and Jason had learned of their use after being rewarded with lots of them when he had been inside the temple Inheritance site.
As such, he wanted to maximize the number of rit points he could get inside the first trial.
'Passing gives one and being unscathed, and fast enough gives a bonus of 100% each...that ans if I pass the exam just before the gate turns blue, I should still be within the ti limit for the bonus'
WIth that in mind, Jason wanted to put together the best possible plan in order to advance through the tower's floor, without the need to neglect his cultivation or other things.
Thus, he had to acquire more intel first.
Because of that, Jason's first task was to find the gate leading towards the second floor.
He had to figure out the requirents to open the gate, in the first place, and there might be other requirents too.
Thinking about that, Jason spent five days adventuring through the second floor, while trying to avoid being attacked by ferocious beasts.
The first trial was filled with beasts that were thirsting for his blood, but Jason felt that the second floor had roughly the sa difficulty as the first one.
This intel was also important, and it gave him a lot to think about, in order to tweak his plan if required.
Thus, he could think about adjusting the ti he spent sowhere and the ti he required to pass a floor.
With a marginal increase in the floor's difficulty, spending a week to advance might be enough for his soulbonds to balance out the increase of difficulty in the following floors.
However, that was just a naive thought and Jason knew it quite well.
From his point of view, the difficulty would increase by a minuscule amount on every normal floor, only to increase drastically every fifth or tenth floor.
That was, at least, what Jason thought to be logical.
However, instead of speculating, he had to figure out the truth beforehand.
As such, when Jason found the closed gate that led towards the third floor, he approached it imdiately.
To his astonishnt, the gate didn't behave as Jason had assud, and instead of remaining closed with specific requirents that had to be fulfilled, it instantly opened. A sky blue wolf was revealed that had a height of five ters.
It was a Maest beast once again and had a strong ice affinity that seed to have enhanced freezing properties.
Jason could tell this because he had seen the sa through his Emperor Eyes a few tis before when he and Artemis had been fused.
As such, he knew that the enhanced freezing property was extrely powerful and that it was not to be underestimated.
Yet, before the sky blue wolf was even able to fully erge from the portal that had manifested only a few monts after the gate had revealed itself, Jason had already slid below it with a complete change in his entire deanor and appearance.
The mont the gate opened, Jason didn't even want to give the opponent enough ti to take a single breath, let alone take a good look around.
As such, the mont the gate opened, he had acted instinctively.
Fusing with Petri, Jason shot towards the gate while black scales with golden vein-like patterns grew on his entire body.
At the sa ti, his Celestia aura turned more ferocious, while a second Stigma manifested on top of his own Stigma.
The Floating Sky movent technique was fully exerted and Byakur had already manifested in his hand.
Just as Petri's scales covered his entire body, Jason's reptilian eyes changed and a tail grew out of his coccyx. anwhile, Solaris manifested itself around the black scales armor, and Byakur.
Through this, Jason received a double-layered protection armor that was highly resistant to physical and elental attacks, with additional destructive properties owing to the searing hot flas of Solaris.
However, his defenses were not important right now, rather his attack would make him win the battle. With that in mind, he had already erged in front of the sky blue wolf the mont it had just erged, oblivious to the position of its opponent.
Thus, Jason, who had the ti on his side, utilized his battle intent that intertwined the race specific weakening curse, the petrification curse, and the abyssal effect which he released at once.
Subduing the oblivious sky blue wolf, Jason didn't hesitate a single mont before he propelled himself into the air, beheading the beast before it could even react.
He didn't hesitate a single second and seeing the blood splurting through the air, a faint gleam erged in his golden eyes, only to disappear a mont later.
His plan had worked perfectly and the guardian of the second floor didn't even notice that anything had gone wrong as it t its death.
Monts later, Jason returned to his normal appearance before taking a deep breath.
"Unfortunately, I don't feel like it will be that easy every ti!"
In the end, the fight might have looked extrely easy to win, but the amount of mana Jason had used was three-quarters of his entire stored mana!
That might seem feasible for most, but Jason was also aware that his victory had been possible because he had taken the sky blue wolf by surprise.
As such, the mont he attacked another guardian in the sa way without the surprise effect, it would probably fail.
There were too many unknown variables Jason had to pay attention to, and he only attacked the sky blue wolf because of one particular reason- information.
Without wasting his ti, Jason had wanted to procure more information about the tower, the floors, and to be precise, the entire first trial.
After the sky blue wolf had been killed, it dispersed into countless particles that were absorbed by the gate that began to glow brightly.
The silver color of the engravings was extrely vibrant, and Jason could already figure out the first piece of information he had been curious about.
'If I'm not wrong, there is no reward above the 100% bonus for speed. That's good to know!'
Because there didn't seem to be a greater reward for speed, Jason was able to spend more ti clearing the dungeon before starting to peacefully cultivate for a few days.
This would be extrely helpful in order to beco stronger, balancing out the steadily increasing difficulty levels with each subsequent floor that were bound to occur.
Jason's mind was already rattling wildly, and he tried to make a rough estimate on how much ti he had to finish each floor.
Yet, what confused him was that the silver color seed to be fading much faster than it did before.
Just at that mont, Jason was forcefully dragged out of his thoughts as Petri, Spyro and Solaris issued a loud warning.
Within a split second, he turned around as black wings sprouted out of his back. Jason pushed himself instinctively into the air away from the gate.
Through this, he evaded the attack of a pack of Netherworld sabertooth tigers that had attempted to assassinate him.
For a short mont, Jason had forgotten that there were other beasts that would attack him the mont they saw him.
Luckily, he had saved himself from the ambush owing to his soulbonds' warning. His expression turned serious and he decimated the group of sabertooth tigers within the following five minutes.
This caused a loud commotion once again, and Jason couldn't help but get a little frustrated because he could already tell that the next batch of beasts was about to co.
Yet, a mont later, the beast corpses disintegrated into countless particles that were also drawn towards the gate. Like before, it began to glow lightly as the blue color was retracted, replaced by a silver touch.
'Is…the silver color maybe a tir? And the particles increase the ti I have? Does that an by killing beasts I can increase the ti in order to receive the speed bonus!?!'
