73 Breakthrough, Progress
Ss sat in a lotus position and started meditating, trying to sense the dark energy in the air.
He had already done this before, and he already knew what to expect.
Unlike the first time, it took Ss less time before he finally felt some changes in the air around him.
He could feel the same strange and familiar presence in the air.
Unlike before when all he could do was feel the dark energy, now Ss could almost visualize it.
It looked like an enigma and gave off a subtle destructive feeling.
Ss knew what he had to do at this moment and he immediately began to absorb the dark energy in the air around him.
Immediately, it felt a vacuum formed around him and an invisible substance entity started funnelling into his body, and Ss felt his body''s temperature and that of his surroundings drop sharply, to an almost freezing degree.
Unlike the previousfortable sensation he felt, this time he felt like he was suddenly thrown onto a massive ice b, right in the middle of the artic ocean.
It was a feeling that was supposed to feel very ufortable and deathly but strangely, Ss felt nothing more than a slight difort.
As the energy coursed through his body, Ss felt the sensation be stronger and he felt like his body were being frozen rapidly.
Ss was lost in the feeling and after an unknown amount of time has passed, Ss started feeling his consciousness slowly slipping away from his body.
The next moment, Ss found himself in the familiar dark space again but this time, there was massive change in it.
The previous dark space with sparse spots of light, was now filled with a huge number of light balls of varying colors.
The colors of the light varies, from blue, white and brown.
Seeing this, Ss could already guess that the colors of the light balls were rted to the current progress of his superpower.
Ss could already manipte the basic three state of matter, namely air (gas), water (liquid)and earth (solid) to an extent but he was still very far from perfect.
Without wasting much time, Ss immediately started studying the light balls.
Ss felt that his current absorption and cultivation session was better than before.
As he continued to study the light balls, Ss could see light balls of the simr colors merging together, and their size bing bigger and their colors, brighter.
Ss understood what was happening, he knew that his superpower rank was increasing.
Ss didn''t know how much has passed before he felt himself back in the ind''s clearing.
Ss looked around his surroundings to check if there was any visible damage to it.
He remembered what happened during hisst absorption session, in the library.
Unsurprisingly, his surroundings was in chaos. His surroundings was frozen solid and waterlogged. The trees in his surroundings were uprooted from their original positions and was now lying around haphazardly.
"Is this going to keep in happening during every cultivation sessions?," Ss asked himself, feeling very exasperated as he looked at what has now be of his cultivation site.
''What would have happened if I really went ahead and cultivated back at the vi?,'' Ss thought to himself.
Of course, he already knew the answer to that question. He knew that if he has done that, only one oue awaited his precious vi;plete destruction.
With the level of damage in front of him, he knew that there was no way the vi would survive.
"I will need to think of a solution for this. I can''t have my cultivation site experiencing this level of destruction every time I absorb dark energy," Ss said, as he thought of how to solve the new problem he has.
After a while, Ss decided to put his thoughts aside and check his current progress.

"Nice! My superpower rank increased!," Ss said, feeling very happy and satisfied with his current progress.
As Ss looked at his system panel, something else caught his attention.
"Wait... The time limit went from 301 days to 294 days?! How much time has passed?!," Ss asked, both shocked and surprised at the amount of time that has passed.
It was something he didn''t take into consideration. He didn''t know that he would have spent such a long period of time, cultivating.
Ss stood up and dusted his clothes, and left the site, as he made his way to the cabin house.
Ss wants to take a quick bath and refresh himself before going back to the hotel.
After he was done with that, Ss seeing no more reason to staying on the ind any longer, made his way to the pier, where Mr Antonio and the speedboat waa waiting for him.
Few minutester, in his penthouse''s living room, Ss took his seat as LUNAR started bringing him up-to-date with things he missed when he was on the ind.
{Mr Yusmairobis has been calling you for a while, with the frequency of his call increasing with each passing seconds.
Just today alone, he has called you a total of 243 times.
He has also been consistently sending messages without rest with its content varying, but they all have the same context; he wants you tlmo save hia daughter.
Also, ELLA has beenunched in the free trial period and the response we got was very positive.
After three days of beingunched, we now have 230,560 daily users and increasing.} N?v(el)B\\jnn
Ss heard this ans nodded in satisfaction. He already expected the massive positive response that ELLA got, but what was more important to him right now, is Mr Yusmairobis andhjs daughter''s situation.
"LUNAR, put a video call through to Mr Yusmairobis."
