When I woke up, I found my body covered in crystals. It is more encased from head to toe.
It is not thin like a dried sweat, but a thick one. It is about one and a half inches thick and covers like a fossil in amber.
I watched, shocked, and about to burn it like I do with layers of sweat, when I stopped. A mont later, a thin wisp of energy ca out and began to cut it with surgical precision.
A few seconds later, two parts of it ca out, bearing my shape.
I looked at it before looking at myself. There was no change; not the slightest one, I could see.
I am still shocked by what happened last night. I am having difficulty believing that so strange energy replaced my usual energy and did sothing I do not know.
It didn’t make feel good, but I hope the answers will reveal themselves.
I had just thought that when I received the first answer, the ti I had been unconscious.
I thought it was a few hours, but it turned out to be a few days—three and a half days to be exact.
It made my expressions turn bad, and I closed my eyes. A mont later, it appeared in my core.
"You had gone through the tamasor bath," my clone inford when I appeared in my core. It took an instant to realize what it was.
I read a lot about the thods I practice, including the dance of Ukasanavor; the new floor of the library has a lot of information about it.
"It’s supposed to happen only when one is Pri? The energy can only be received in certain places," I asked.
"You are Pri in all but na, and this place, this realm, is one of the places with access to the energy," it replied with a less expression and even tone, but heartened, a faint bit of deadpanness in its tone.
"It’s supposed to happen in the fourth level of the thod and above? I am still practicing the second," I replied.
The dance of ukasanavor has seven stages, from zero to six. I am only on the second.
I looked at my clone, and it was silent. However, it had opened its mouth seven seconds later.
"A few people had gone through it on the third level, but it happened rarely. There is no ntion of it happening in the second layer," it replied.
I nodded. My clones and I had read through all these books, and there was no ntion.
We kept looking at each other for a while before I turned to the ta-scan, which had over a hundred windows around it, showing different kinds of data.
"Tamasor bath, who would have expected?" I laugh to myself.
It is filled with relief because I know it is not harmful. It is quite good, actually. Those who practice the dance want to go through it.
It is a bath, that is a combination of cleansing and quenching.
I am using the word quenching for a reason: because it is what happened.
My body and soul are pure; there are barely any impurities, but they brought them out searching from deep within. It is also pushed, strengthening very deep into .
That ans the space opened. When I looked at the limit that opened up, a smile couldn’t help but appear on my face.
The smile is about the limit, but also much more. It is more about the other stuff limit, actually, because those will help in the long term.
My strength remained unchanged. As I said, it was not strengthening, but that doesn’t an I was not stronger than before.
Looking at the data, I know. I will be able to use my strength much better than before.
This is a trendous fortune that will help more and more as the days pass. Most importantly, with it, the chances of my breakthrough in the Pri had increased by at least 5%.
That is massive, considering it will be the most dangerous breakthrough I will have.
More dangerous than my Sovereign breakthrough, and if I succeed, it will be even more transformational.
I looked at each graph, and so made my eyes widen. Not only because of the changes I had gone through, but also because of how close I was to death during the process.
If I had stopped, I would have done without a doubt.
Even without it, I was so close to dying. The imnse pressure I was under was truly humongous. So much that the most pris would have died ten tis over.
It took a while to study through it before I got out my core and freshened up and walked to the kitchen.
As I did, a steaming hot al in front of .
I had decided to cook for myself every day after entering the forest, but I was so hungry that I let my clone do it.
It is a good thing because as I took the bite, I beca a fiend. I ate as fast as I could, and by the ti I had cald down, I had finished everything my clone had cooked.
I am still hungry, but I didn’t eat anymore. Instead, I stayed in the chair for a few minutes before walking into the practice room.
As I did, my clothes disappeared, and a minute later, I was practicing the dance again.
At the twenty-fifth pose, my body felt relieved. It is my usual energy, which is also very dangerous, but it is sothing I am used to handling and know how to deal with.
An hour later, I was finished and sat down slowly with my sweaty body.
"No change," I said and felt glad for it.
I thought there would be so change like Talaras, but there is none. It is working as if it were outside, and it made very happy.
I do not want anything unexpected after what I have gone through.
