BXBX NOVEL Chapter 377: True Path Begins
Just as Erix and Rin emerged on the floor after completing the 30th-floor challenge, Erix\'s aura burst out with life power.
"It was about time," Erix said with a nod. He had been focusing on the Life element past three days. Making it stronger directly boosted the passives and talent powers of his Bloodline since they were based on both the Life and Death elements.
"I am also close to a breakthrough in my Blood affinity," Rin said as she stretched his arms. "Should we go for the 31st Floor? We won\'t beat it though."
"True, let\'s leave for now," Erix nodded as he looked at his status.

"I just need to get my Nihilir to the 4th realm, but given that it took me almost two months to get my Death and Space to the 4th realm even with resources, I\'ll need a month," Erix rubbed his chin.
"Do you think that Blue Maw Pirate Kingdom will arrive in the next five days?" Rin wondered as she looked at her power level status. "We are not strong enough to face them if they come."

"Darling, you need a new Concept as well," Rin grinned.
"I\'ll decide on one soon," Erix laughed. "I got a few options, but I need to think. I am working on a powerful skill, so if can execute it, It\'ll open a new path and will help me make a choice on which Concept should I go for."
"Mhmm, since we are done here, then let\'s inform Lilith," Rin smiled, her eyes gleaming eagerly for something. "It\'s time."
"Yep."
On the other hand, the giant ship of Blue Maw Pirate Kingdom led by Bill and Rani, the two Reverend-order would reach the Earth in five days.
They were also bringing with them a force of 1000 Empyrean-order Beasts and 500 Empyrean-order slaves to bring doom to the population of a planet.
…
"This process is simple, yet slightly risky. Don\'t be careless and you\'re good," Lilith stood before Erix, Rin, Isabella, Aria, Sameira, and Kenshin.
The jolly slime Amu left to play with kids and look around before Lilith began speaking. Amu was already outside of Mystic Root\'s influence.
"You all used your unassigned stat points, right?" Lilith asked. "If not, then use them now because after breaking away from Mystic Root\'s influence, they will disappear."
All five of them had reached the max level of Royal-order lifeform rank, level 299, so they had a thousand or more unassigned stat points, which they all added into Soul stat, making their soul powerful.
Erix and Rin had already used them before going to the Labyrinth Tower, making their Soul power reach 2239 and 2194, respectively.
"Done," Sameira nodded.
The others also nodded as they finished assigning points.
"Good. Now enter deep focus and clear your mind. Just only let my voice enter your consciousness," Lilith said.
"To sense Mystic Root, you\'ll have to find something that doesn\'t belong to you in your Origin region. You have to make it surface and that will require your most focused and clear state."
"You must have full control over your powers, and each of your fibers. Point your senses towards yourself."
Everyone entered a deep focused state, their consciousness shutting down everything external and their senses only permeating within themselves.
Usually, they would use deep focus and infuse their consciousness into a singular objective with a medium and train. For instance, training using an Elemental crystal to comprehend the element\'s profound power and master them.
This time, they must target themselves.
"Put aside all powers and attributes that belong to you and make them vanish. The thing left would be the Mystic Root\'s Mystic Rune that would be connected to your soul and body and everything you got through it."
Lilith continued.
"Once you find that Mystic Rune, try to destroy it with your spirit force and soul force combined. You\'ll be faced with a will battle from Mystic Root once you do that."
"As long as you win, Mystic Root will leave you alone, recognizing your determination to begin your path without its support."
Lilith sat down on a chair and expanded her senses outward while leisurely eating berries while the others began the process of breaking out of Mystic Root\'s influence.
Seconds turned into minutes, and soon an hour passed.
Everyone\'s aura was silent, but all of them were having an intense battle internally at the moment.
Erix and Rin were on the verge of finishing their battle as they remained in full force with their indomitable wills.
Soon after a few minutes, both of their aura burst out and notifications rang in their heads.
[Mystic Rune termination. Congratulations on breaking out of the gravel plane bounds.]
[Killing monsters by your hands will not make them disappear and drop loot.]
[Your class source has been terminated. Please select one out of three options to convert the accumulated class powers that you earned into—Magic Essence to increase your Magic|Spirit|Soul stat, Growable Specialized Item based on class, or a Specialized Skill Rune.]
[You will no longer level up and gain stats from monsters after killing them.]
[Your learned passive skills have been removed but if you have already learned them and made their skill runes, you\'ll retain the effects as they are yours.]
[Your auto-learned Active skills in slots have been removed.]
[Your auto-learned Talents in slots have been removed.]
[You can no longer equip or use items that are dropped from monsters.]
[Good luck in your endeavors. Your true path begins now.]
"So that\'s it, eh?" Erix opened his eyes after reading the notifications.
"What did you choose in exchange?" Rin asked before she grinned, "I chose Magic Essence. No need for an item or skill. Haha, it was a good decision to max level up our class. Thanks to daily Atlantis expedition and invasion, we managed to use tons of skill creation attempts to build our arsnal of skills and skill embryos."
"Yep, skill embryos are good," Erix nodded as he eagerly rubbed his hand, "I can\'t wait to get knowledge on more advanced magic after going to more advanced worlds later."
Erix also selected that option as he acquired a surprising amount of Magic Essence.
[As you had X-rank class, you have acquired 5000 Magic Essence.]
5000 Magic Essence basically meant 5000 stat points!
Since Rin had also upgraded her class to X-rank half a month ago, she also acquired the same amount.
They could either spend that on Spirit or Soul. After all, those two stats were far from reaching the limit of their lifeform rank.
Soon, Aria, Isabella, Sameira, and Kenshin\'s auras also started becoming volatile as their battles ended in graduating from Mystic Root\'s influence.
"Congratulations. Now you are just like the rest of the cosmos, stepping into the true path of power," Lilith smiled.
And right after that, Erix got a surprising notification from the Blessed Island.
[You have met the requirement to reveal the rank upgrade requirements of Blessed Island.]
"Check it," Lilith smiled at Erix as if she already knew that Erix would receive the notification from Blessed Island after breaking out of Mystic Root\'s influence.
"You knew it?" Erix was surprised and also informed others as they curiously. "It\'s an upgrade notification of Blessed Island."
"After you left, I asked Granny May," Lilith grinned. "The owner had to break out of Mystic Root\'s influence to reveal the upgrade requirement."
"If the situation goes bad against Blue Maw Pirate Kingdom, our sole means of safe escape would be this Blessed Island," Lilith narrowed her eyes. "We have to upgrade it, so that it can get new functions that will allow it to travel in outer-space and access wormhole transport."
"Space travel on island?" Sameira was startled.
"Hahaha, sounds like the best adventure vehicle," Kenshin laughed.
"Indeed" Erix nodded, slightly excited at hearing those functions. He opened the Blessed Island\'s panel to quickly check the requirements.
"Let\'s complete them as soon as possible," Aria excitedly said, eager to see vaster and more colorful worlds.
"This..." Erix felt slightly stumped as he looked at the upgrade requirement and shared it with others since they were partial owners of the Blessed Island assigned by Erix.
