Time passed on… The people around the shore were already certain that after his last attempt, Aiden was long since dead, just another victim to the relentless, wild, raging mystic sea. They were all but certain that he too failed the trial…
Even Bair Yohren was of a similar thought. He refused to believe that man would be able to defy all odds and come out on top. He refused to accept the prophecy those seers have foretold.
No! This was his fate, his destiny, he would not let anybody claim it!
However contrary to their beliefs, the reality was vastly different. That young man they all believed to be dead… was fine and was still traversing through the raging mystic sea, utilizing all of his abilities, both his physical traits as well as [Underwater Breathing] and [Swimming] skills to their fullest.
He could also have changed form and take on the [Sahuagin Champion] as that race was predominantly lived beneath the surface of the water, and only came to land to hunt, he decided against it in the end. This whole sub world had its own special set of rules and governing laws shaping it for hundreds of years, he wasn't sure how it would react to such an action. Would it be considered an act of defiance? Would he be then rejected and thrown out, expelled by this place? Would the raging essence turn even more chaotic, and try its best to murder him, the aggressor?
Aiden wasn't sure, but nevertheless, he wasn't about to find out, thus he instead decided to use his abilities instead and keep his current form, and keep swimming towards the mountain range in the distance.
…
Time passed. From the hastily made start more than two full hours have already been gone. It was getting increasingly difficult to travel on the surface of the sea.
The power of the waves was too strong and Aiden's body was already breaking apart from the relentless impacts – his organs were already shaking violently!
He would definitely die if he continued that way. As such, Aiden could only take a deep breath of air and sink to the bottom of the sea.
As he submerged he saw that the clear sandy bottom was filled with countless white bones. Those were the so called 'elites' the past paragons that have died in the mystic sea over countless years of failed trials. Stepping on their bones, Aiden pushed himself up and began swimming, advancing ever so slowly.
Strangely, the bottom of the sea was much calmer compared to the surface without any shocking or turbulent waves. However, there was the undercurrent!
Deep in the sea, Aiden had to endure even more pressure with the endless pure essence alongside going against the current.
There were countless times when he was pushed back by the undercurrent. However, each time, he got back up and continued advancing.
Still, slowly but sure as the time kept on passing, Aiden kept on advancing ever to the point of feeling his body reaching its limit.
Wounds appeared on his flesh, blood vessels, tendons, bones and organs as the wild, pure mana surged madly. Aiden's skin had already split open and blood was oozing out.
His vitality was draining, Aiden grunted and stopped in his tracks.
If this continued, his life force would be completely destroyed by the mystic sea!
Understanding his current predicament, Aiden halted his advance and instead did something that nobody would have expected. He sat down on the ground, at the bottom of the sea and restarted his meditative session. His reserves full of [Soul Power] burst forth like a ferocious torrent!
At that moment he unlocked his self-imposed shackles and allowed his full power to flow freely, revitalizing his body, restoring his lost, spent stamina as well as refilling his body with energy.
He was not worried about exposing his secret now that he was at the bottom of the sea. Far beyond the gazes of anyone watching.
The sound of tsunami, rumbling thunder, raging ancient beasts as well as an odd sound that was rather familiar emanated out from his body in a terrifying manner! It was the familiar roar of the Ancient Dragon!
A thought flashed through Aiden's mind.
Surrounded with boundless, wild and pure worldly essence an incredibly arrogant thought emerged in his mind! He would use this chance to hone his body and test his limits once again!
Making up his mind, Aiden closed his eyes as he heaved an empty sigh to clear his mind of all distracting thoughts. He focused on the circulation of his flowing internal energy, cycling it according to the chants and mantras of his meditation technique that the system had taught him and he improved upon.
With each completed cycle, the silhouette of majestic dragon appeared behind Aiden's sitting figure. Plowing through the heavens, its mere presence was extremely terrifying, its mere gaze were like his mighty roar, threatening to tear the firmaments apart!
As the silhouette of the dragon looked up at the sky and roared a sharp golden-colored bolt of lightning coiled around Aiden's body blindingly.
In that sea of lightning, the majestic dragon shaped silhouette kept howling into the skies with endless might as they fought against the mystic sea's wild energy within Aiden's body.
In front of everyone, the surface of the sea that had returned to normalcy suddenly started surging once more with torrential waves without any warning at all!
It was as though a terrifying life form of the ancient era was awakening at the bottom of the sea!
"[Slaric] W-what is going on?!"
"[Slaric] Could that man be still alive?!"
"[Slaric] I-It can't be, right?"
The crowd were filled with doubt… and shock. Bair Yohren's eyes flashed with suspicion. It couldn't be… right?!
…
Deep in the sea, wild currents raged rampantly, leaving wounds both inside and outside on the lonesome invader, Aiden's body.
His power rumbled and the wounds were healed to normal the moment they oozed with traces of blood. No matter the damages, his body kept on healing and repairing itself keeping up the pace with the raging storm.
Destruction and repair… It was a vicious cycle that kept on revolving.
Intense pain stimulated Aiden's nerves.
However, his gaze was only burning brighter!
Aiden's blood, flesh, tendons, bones, and organs underwent a transformation once more under the vicious cycle. Gradually his body was reforming itself, restructuring, reinforcing with each passage of this seemingly endless cycle of torture.
At this point, whether or not he obtained the Sword Emperor's legendary inheritance, this was not a trip in vain. There was no way, he could have achieved so much without the assistance of this strange, yet incredibly powerful mystical sea.
