The dark clouds rolled across the sky, unleashing torrents of water that seed to connect heaven and earth. Lightning flashed, illuminating the world in brief, followed by thunder that shook the capital.
Sitting cross-legged in a luxurious room of Eloise’s palace, Lucian opened his Status Panel. His brows furrowed as he fell into deep thought.
After he absorbed the space dao bone, this new option showed up in his status. But until now, he had only comprehended this much.
His comprehension of space was still too low to use the spatial laws in any movent technique.
Lucian sighed in frustration, then his gaze moving down to his Innate Fate Movents.
When he saw the "Upgradable" option beside each one, his lips curled up. He began to ponder his choices carefully.
Right now, he had 5055 Fate Points, and if he chose to upgrade his purple fate, Gluttonous, he would spend all his points on just this one. Moreover, this Innate Fate was still strong enough for now.
So he chose to ignore it for now.

After thinking for a mont, he decided on his physique Innate Fate.
This blue innate fate would need 1000 Fate Points to upgrade to purple. So, without any delay, he chose inwardly.

[Ding!]
[1000 points is needed to upgrade. Do you want to proceed?]
---
"Yes," Lucian confird ntally.

[Beginning the upgrading process...]
[Fate Points]: 4055

Lucian closed his eyes, waiting for the System to begin enhancing his physique.
However, even after waiting for half an incense stick of ti, nothing happened!
He frowned and after a mont of thought, took out a low-grade spirit stone from his space ring.
Imdiately his body completely absorbed the Spiritual Energy with an unimaginable speed!
He was startled and quickly pulled out nearly ten thousand low-grade spirit stones from his spatial ring. He placed them in a circle around himself.
There were even mid-grade spirit stones among them.
The energy stored inside Spirit Stones continuously began to enter his body, flowing like rivers into an ocean!
...
Next day,
The spirit stones had completely turned into dust, their essence drained to the last drop.
The room was filled with powder that drifted through the air, catching the occasional ray of sunlight that broke through the morning clouds outside.
But Lucian was not concerned. His eyes were still closed, imrsed in the wonderful feeling of his transformation.
Right now, his physique had changed drastically.
His new physique was called Soul-Devouring Demonic Dragon Body!
Lucian felt he could kill his previous self easily!
Moreover,
He took out a mid-grade Spirit Stone and circulated his Cultivation Technique.
Less than five breaths of ti, he completely sucked it dry. He didn’t use his Gluttonous Innate Fate; this was just the absorption speed of his new physique!
His ridians had expanded significantly, becoming wider and stronger than before.
The circulation of Spiritual Energy was smoother than before, increasing the efficiency of his output.
But that was not all.
He could also sense the size of his Heavenly Palace was slowly increasing!
But what caused his eyes to widen in astonishnt and his heart to tremble intensely was his Essence Blood!
When he examined his heart with his Qi sense, he could see that his Essence Blood was no longer crimson as before.
Instead, it was now pale golden in color!
And the amount of Essence Blood was also increasing slowly, causing his already strong vitality to rise to unprecedented heights!
It took a long ti to calm down his wildly beating heart.
Taking a deep breath, Lucian opened his system panel again, this ti intending to upgrade his "Cultivation Genius" Innate Fate.
He also recieved a divine skill inheritance. He sensed that his current comprehension wasn’t enough to grasp this skill quickly.

[100 points is needed to upgrade "Cultivation Genius". Do you want to proceed?]
---
"Yes," Lucian confird without hesitation.
---
[Beginning the upgrading process...]
[Fate Points]: 3955
---
This ti, the change wasn’t so eye-catching.
Yet as ti passed Lucian felt his thoughts becoming clearer, sharper, allowing him to perceive the world with unprecedented clarity.
The upgrade had changed his "Cultivation Genius" Innate Fate to "Enhanced ntal Perception."
But Lucian felt this wasn’t enough.
So without hesitation, he decided to invest another 1000 Fate Points to upgrade this Innate Fate from Blue to Purple.

[Ding!]
[1000 points is needed to upgrade "Enhanced ntal Perception". Do you want to proceed?]
---
"Yes," Lucian confird, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

[Beginning the upgrading process...]
[Fate Points]: 2955

His Enhanced ntal Perception had evolved into Unrivaled Perceptual Ability!
His law comprehension also began to increase…
Lucian imdiately took out another massive amount of Spirit Stones, as he felt his Cultivation breakthrough was imminent. He took out hundreds of mid-grade spirit stones.
His Cultivation Technique was drawing in Spiritual Energy with unprecedented efficiency…
He remained seated for an entire day, motionless, simply absorbing Spiritual Energy…

Currently, Emperor Maximilian was sitting inside a pagoda, gazing at the sa lake where he and his sister used to spend so "personal ti" together.
However unlike previously, his eyes only reflected confusion and regret.
At this mont a tall woman wearing Empress gown slowly entered the pagoda.
Previously, she was a just concubine, but after the Fourth Prince ascended to Crown Prince, she beca the Empress.
Sitting beside Maximilian, complex feeling flashed through her black eyes.
"Your Majesty, you seem troubled," she asked softly.
Maximilian didn’t turn to face her. His gaze remained fixed on the rippling lake surface.
After a long ti, he sighed deeply, without turning to face her, asked, "Empress, do you know how did I beco the Emperor?"
Her hands, which were brewing the tea, paused slightly, but in the end she did not respond because this topic was considered taboo. She had recently beco Empress, so she did not want to comnt on such a sensitive subject.
Maximilian didn’t mind, he continued to speak, "Everyone knows that I’ve killed the Crown Prince. But that wasn’t the truth."
Her hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, causing ripples to form on the surface of the tea.
"Unlike , my Royal Brother had Cultivation aptitude. At that ti, he had already stepped into the path of Cultivation. I was certainly not his match," Maximilian’s eyes grew distant, "Then one day I t that person…"
He took the tea cup and said, "That day I was returning from the Empire’s border. But in the midway, I was ambushed. All of my guards were killed. Just when I already accepted my fate, she appeared! With a wave of her hand she turned them into ash!"
He paused, taking a sip of tea before continuing, "She told she could help beco Emperor. At first, I laughed. Why would such a powerful being care about mortal affairs? I thought she was intentionally toying with before killing ."
"But after that she simply vanished. At that ti, I already knew about the Cultivators, still seeing one in person made realize how vast the gap truly was between mortals and those Transcended beings."
He continued to speak, "Next day when I entered the Royal Palace, I was confused seeing all the soldiers kneeling before ."
He took another long sip of tea, and spoke, "When I asked one of my n, he told how yesterday I killed my father and the Crown Prince in a bloody coup!"
Maximilian laughed bitterly, "Right then I heard that mysterious woman’s voice in my mind. It was actually that woman who had killed them all because she wanted to take care of an infant!"
And that child is Lucian!"
"What?!" Empress cried in shock. She was now paled in fear as she didn’t know why Maximilian was sharing with her such a secret.
At this mont a cool breeze suddenly entered the pagoda.
"How does she look like? Did she tell you her na?"
A voice echoed out of nowhere startling them.
Maximilian eyes flickered, and he asked hesitantly, "L-lucian!"
"Hmm... answer my question."
Maximilian swallowed hard, "No! She never told who she was! I only saw her that one ti! She had a veil covering her face!"
The Empress’s face grew even whiter, cold sweat forming on her brow.
Maximilian slowly removed a ring from his index finger, and said, "You had this when you were left at the Royal Palace! Whoever she was, she is definitely related to you!"
