Chapter 1175 Another Primordial (Part 3)
"Tell me, why are you the only Eldritch Creature at Rank Five in Azragoth World when it's such a good place for cultivation?"
Since the moment Evan started fighting against Emperor Velgoth and other Eldritch Creatures, he had been curious about this very question.
No matter whether it is the concentration of the World Essence or the speed of comprehending conceptual energy, everything in Azragoth World seems better than Utopia.
Since the environment of Azragoth World is superior, then why is Emperor Velgoth only at Rank Five? He is the ruler of this world, shouldn't he have reached Rank Six, especially with all of the resources of this world at his disposal?
Not only is he still at the beginner level of Rank Five after tens of thousands of years, but even the other Eldritch Creatures under his command are not very high-ranked.
After fighting against millions of Eldritch Creatures in Azragoth World, Evan found that the average level of these creatures is only Beginner Level Rank Two, with a few reaching Rank Three and creatures like Nythor, who are at Rank Four are even rare.
If the environment of Azragoth World wasn't suitable, it would be understandable that there weren't many high-level core evolvers.
But with the abundance of World Essence and the clear concepts that should increase the understanding of conceptual energy, it was truly strange that the level of the Eldritch Creatures remained so low, so Evan really wanted to know what was going on in this world.
When Emperor Velgoth heard Evan's question, his expression turned strange.
"What are you talking about? Do you think it's easy to advance in an environment where you can't even feel a single concept clearly?"
"Huh?" Evan was startled by Velgoth's words.
Evan tried to sense whether anything was different about his Heart of Origin after arriving in Azragoth World, but after observing it for a while, he found nothing abnormal so he eventually gave up.
"If it's difficult for people to sense concepts here because it's an artificially created world, then how did you reach Rank Five? Surely, it wasn't simply because you are very talented, right?"
"You are right..." Velgoth's expression remained calm when he heard Evan's words as he replied, "I was able to reach Rank Five because I refined the core of this world. In fact, without the core's help, it would be impossible to go beyond Rank Three in this world."
Evan's eyes narrowed when he heard Velgoth's words. "Are you saying even your subordinates who reached Rank Fourâ"
"No, they didn't refine the core..." Velgoth interrupted Evan before he could finish speaking. "They were able to reach Rank Four because I shared the energy of the world core with them."
Evan remained silent, waiting for Velgoth to continue.
"You have fought many of my soldiers, so you must be aware of the phenomenon where the bodies of the people are absorbed by the world after their death, right?"
"Yes," Hearing Velgoth, Evan nodded his head as it was another thing that had been puzzling him.
"This is actually the work of the world core. Once someone dies in Azragoth World, all of their energy is absorbed by it. Once the world core absorbs the energy of the dead, it transforms that energy into pure essence, which can be used to accelerate cultivation. Whether it's to increase one's understanding of conceptual energy or to deepen one's grasp of the laws, this pure essence is beneficial to all core evolvers regardless of their rank."
Evan was stunned when he heard Emperor Velgoth as he hadn't expected such an absurd explanation behind the disappearance of the bodies.
"So, Velgoth and the high-level core evolvers under his command were able to advance because of this essence created by the world core, huh..." Evan muttered quietly, his eyes gleaming with a strange light.
'Since all core evolvers can use this essence, doesn't that mean I can use it to increase my rank as well?'
