Supreme Human System

Kritos's consciousness began to crack as he absorbed more blue particles inside him. Although he doesn't experience the physical pain, the mental pain that can't be described was wrapping him constantly.

Soon the blue orb slowly faded away with passing time and the surroundings began to distort. After a couple of minutes, a wide field appeared in place of the previous region.

[Ding…]

[System requires complete assimilation of the Void AI!]

[Time remaining before complete assimilation: 1 year]

[System basic function will be opened but the System main brain will be shutting down before the complete assimilation!]

Kritos was stunned as he learned that the System will be off for a year. Nonetheless, he can still use the function.

Kritos looked around and found himself in the middle of the open ground... This place seems to be endless that has no end.

This new place exceeded anything Kritos could have imagined. There was no danger here, no battlefield. There was only a valley. Within the valley was a lake, next to which was a house. Sitting cross-legged outside of the house was an old man.

The old man was fishing, and as Kritos approached, the man paid him no attention.

After a long moment passed, the old man finally spoke.

"This does not conform with the rules."

As the words descended from his mouth, a long silence established around the surrounding area. Kritos remained silent as he was quite confused about the man's identity. But it seems that the old man is referring to the earlier situation.

"This junior doesn't understand senior intuition," Kritos replied after a few seconds as he was a bit confused by the sudden scenery.

The old man remained silent, it seems he was calculating something in his mind.

"I don't know what method you use to destroy the Spiritual Meta being created by the Immortals, but beware they will not let it go. Going directly against their Authority is a mistake."

"Spiritual Meta Beings?"

It is the first time Kritos has heard this name. However, he understands that the old man is talking about the Void A.I main brain that he just absorbed.

"They are the beings created by the Immortals and Gods to control the world in their place. Generally, these beings had no emotions and they only listened to the commands of their creator. Destroying them is equal to provoking Immortals authority." 

Without looking at Kritos, the old man solemnly said in his lousy voice.

Listening to the old man's words, Kritos understands that he is somehow involved himself in deep trouble because of the system. 

"Senior, please help this ignorant junior, I will always be grateful to you." Kritos doesn't know the exact strength of the old man but he has a feeling this old man is not ordinary. If not, why does he know something beyond the usual concept of humans?

The old man said nothing at first. After a long moment, he sighed, then made a grasping motion with his right hand. Instantly, a seal appeared in the palm of his hand. It seemed to be formed of countless magical symbols and contained a sense of shattered beauty.

"Fleshly Sanctification," said the old man. "It is a secret art, not really a magic technique." He looked at Kritos for a moment, and Kritos's mind shook. That single glance was enough to pierce completely through him.

"Interesting," said the old man, a serious look filling his eyes. He waved his hand, causing the seal to shoot toward Kritos and enter into his forehead.

"The legacy tomb administrator would have difficulty creating a copy of this art. However, since I approve, then after you leave this place, as long as I still exist, you can fully activate it. If I've already perished…." The old man shook his head but said no more.

As he said those words, the old man suddenly looked up at Kritos once more. His eyes seemed to be filled with both understanding and sorrow. He somehow felt that this kid has the same story as him.

Suddenly the old man disappeared from his place.

Kritos felt a bit uneasy as he saw the old man disappear in front of him. Considering his personality and ability to concentrate, it shouldn't be this way. After all, everything here was illusory.

"This world!"

Shortly the surroundings flickered, and Kritos also disappeared from this place.

As soon as Kritos left the Golden pagoda, it began to shrink down, eventually transforming into a beam of light that shot up into the fissure up in the sky.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, the eyes of all the Ancient Agasthya Clan disciples were fixed on the glow of magical light on the 10th level of the pagoda. This was especially true for two people. 

Sasha and Lu Long who have also obtained a high-profile identity as Kritos.

Sasha obtained the identity of the daughter of the Grand Priest of the Agastya Clan while Lu long obtained the identity of the direct discipline of the third peak master and also a secret identity that he is the son of the Andhaka Clan's Clan head.

Unlike Sasha, Lu Long doesn't know the real identity of Prasu. However, Lu long finds it difficult to believe someone could change this much. He has a feeling that the Prasu was Sasha or Kritos who obtained his identity.

Even Paswa's expression was one of increased anticipation. As for the other Elders, they were watching closely as well. All of them knew that this was a chance to get one of the top 3 magic techniques. All of them wanted to know which technique he acquired.

Those three techniques were something that can give a person a hidden identity. So most of the people were concerned about which technique their Young Master had chosen.

Depending on the technique he chooses, he will set the path for himself in the future.
