Chapter 197: Genesis Void Rank Up
After he landed at the airport, the first thing that Silas did was to make his way immediately to the island to begin his dark energy absorption.
At the moment, Silas isn't absorbing dark energy but increasing all of his stats to the max.
The reason why Silas chose to first increase his stats is because of his perception.
After he increased his stats in the plane, Silas noticed that his perception of his surroundings had improved but he had no idea of just how much his perception has improved.
It was only after he landed at the airport, did he actually understand just how much he has improved.
Actually, it wasn't something out of the ordinary as what changed is that his sensory abilities became slightly enhanced. Infact, he could barely feel the difference until he concentrated a little but he felt the improvement it has underwent with the increase in stat.
There's another thing that Silas noticed. The increase in his stats was almost as the same as when his stats were in similar state before his first evolution metamorphosis.
The only difference between his perception then and now is that the range is wider than it was then.
Silas immediately got to exchanging system points for stat points. He has already done a calculation on how stat points he would need to increase his stat to the max and it summed up to 4688 stat points, and going by the new conversion rate, he would need to exchange 46,880,000* system points to get the amount of stat points he needs.
Silas made the exchange and he saw the stat points comfortably sitting in the stat points section of his status screen. He didn't waste time as he started adding the stat points to his stat.
After he added the stat points, he patiently waited. He thought that he would experience the bout of pain he experience the previous time he maxed out his stat but after waiting for almost a full minute, nothing happened.
Instead of feeling pain, he felt massive familiar changes in his body, the massive surge of power,... everything he experienced when he increased his stat in the plane. The only difference was the feeling was even more profound than before.
The changes also came with an exhilarating feeling that felt like he was being reborn. The feeling was so good that it almost caused Silas to moan out but he had excellent self control.
Just as he has expected, immediately after he maxed out his stat, Silas felt his perception increase greatly.
This time it was completely different from before where he needed to concentrate before he could detect the improvement in his perception.
This time he could feel it clearly as he noticed that he can now see 5 kilometers ahead of him and he can now hear sounds 100 meters away.
He was surprised by this changes to say the least. His perception wasn't as good as this before he went through his first evolution metamorphosis.
He was even more curious to see just how strong he currently is compared to before his first evolution metamorphosis.
This thought also reminded him of something he previously planned to do but it has kept slipping from his mind. This involves building a personal training center for himself.
He wants to build a training center that will be able to handle his strength and won't get destroyed during his training sessions.
Training with the clone in the domain is all good as the Pod does a marvelous job at recreating everything in the virtual world but Silas would prefer to have his training in the real world.
Also, training with the clone has become boring as he's technically training with himself, a virtual version of himself.

"Perfect!" Silas said as he did a quick breathing exercise, before concentrating his perception on sensing the dark energy around him.
He lost awareness of the passage of time as he continued to sense the dark energy in the air.
It took time just as always but Silas was able to sense the dark energy in the air and he immediately began to absorb it into his body.
Silas felt the same familiar sensation when the dark energy was absorbed into his body. He felt like he was thrown into a cold room but the coldness of this room was completely different from before, as it was more intense than it used to be. He felt like he was freezing as the cold penetrated his bones.
Silas gritted his teeth, enduring the cold penetrating his body as he continued to absorb the dark energy into his body.
As he absorbed more dark energy, the cold increased and it was starting to become even more uncomfortable for him.
Silas continued to grit his teeth as he persevered. Abruptly, the bone freezing cold he was feeling vanished and he found himself in the familiar dark space with spots of light of different colors were floating around.
He smiled when he saw this. He persevered and he succeeded.
He didn't waste any time as he began to study the spots of light but before he could do that, he found himself back on the island, seated on the rock.
He couldn't help but blink his eyes in confusion when he saw this.
"What the?!....."
Silas didn't understand how to explain the situation. What he expected was to study the spots of light for some time so that he can be able to rank up his superpower, but he was sent out of the dark space before he could even do that.
He decided looked around to confirm if he was truly back on the island or not but unfortunately for him, he wasn't mistaken.
"But why?" Silas asked as his confusion increased by the second.
The answer he was looking for came immediately as a system notification popped up in his retina.

[Congratulation Host! Your superpower: Genesis Void has ranked up.]
[You have met the requirements for your next evolution metamorphosis.]
"Ohh..." Silas finally understood what happened.
He immediately called up his status information to confirm.

"It really ranked up! Nice. It seems like I lost connection to the dark space because my superpower ranked up." Silas smiled when he saw the changes in his status screen.
He raised his head to look at the night sky that has stars brightening it up. He felt the cool night wind that blew from the ocean nearby, hitting his skin and giving him a refreshing feeling.
"Ahh... Feels good to be alive." Silas smiled brightly as he enjoyed the view in front of him.
He checked the time and he saw that it was already past midnight. He started his session of dark energy absorption quite early in the morning and it's already past midnight, which means he has spent more than 20 hours on the island.
"I guess I can use the rest of night to rest. I will go back to the mainland tomorrow."
