After entering the special space, Athan approached Tiana, who seems to be sensing the new changes.

Athan didn't say anything and just waited.

After a few minutes, Tiana opened her eye and smiled, seeing Athan, " I broke through. But there seems to be something strange inside my energy realm. "

" Hmm, Strange, you say? What happened? "Athan asked with a raised eyebrow. He knew his process was different from others because of unima core.

" After I broke the primal barrier, A vast amount of primal energy appeared and created and dark brown round core in the middle of my energy realm. After that, All of the energy of various elements are absorbed inside the primal core while the various elemental crystals are spinning around the primal core. " Tiana spoke to here before she released primal energy.

Her primal energy didn't look the same ass Athan's primal energy and looked dark brown.

" The strange thing is that...Wait, Let me put it into better words. " Saying this, Tiana turned the primal energy that was hovering over her hand into primal ice energy.

" You see, when I just turned my primal energy into primal ice energy with the use of my ice intent, The ice crystal in my energy realm suddenly rushed towards the primal core and tackled it. It's not bringing me any discomfort or any obstruction when I use my spells, but It's just strange that it would tackle the primal core. "

Hearing this, Athan was a bit dumbfounded, " It...tackled the primal core? "

Tiana nodded with a smile, " Yep. It tackled the primal core as if it wants to fight with it or enter inside it. "

Athan thought for a while but couldn't come up with anything since the whole crystal thing was related to the Ark.

" Ark...I wonder what it is? " Athan muttered and took out the Ark.

" Let's see if this can solve your problem. " Saying this, Athan activated the Ark with his soul energy and took it near Tiana.

But even after few minutes passed, Nothing happened.

Shaking his head, Athan said, " Looks like the only way to solve the tackling thing would be to get the unima core just like me. "

" Unima core? The one which you got after you ate the unima fruit? What did it do? " Tiana asked with a confused expression. She remembered how she took a bite from that fruit and felt a huge suppression over her entire existence before she fainted.

Athan nodded with a smile and took some of his primal energy out, " The unima core ate all of the initial primal energy I got after I broke the primal barrier before proceeding to devour all of the elemental crystal. After that, some energy was released from the unima core and refined my body to a whole new level. "

Tiana was surprised to see that Athan's primal energy was very different from her, " This energy feels more powerful. Let's do some simple tests. "

Athan nodded as they proceeded to do some tests.

Tiana and Athan created a shield of their primal energy before they clashed the shields against each other.

The result was that Tiana's primal energy shield completely shattered while Athan's primal energy shield didn't even have a scratch.

After that, Tiana conjured a spear of her primal energy and hit Athan's primal energy shield, but the result dumbfounded them.

Athan's primal energy shield remained without scratches while Tiana's spear got cracked and destroyed.

Tiana spoke with a speechless expression, " Well...The difference between your primal energy and my primal energy seems...very huge. "

Athan smiled wryly and said, " Yeah. I didn't expect that the difference would be this huge. "

At this time, Both of them look behind and saw Qerin opening her eyes and flying towards them.

" Looks like she also managed to sense the primal barrier. " Tiana said with a smile.

Qerin arrived there and said with a surprised expression, " Looks like you both managed to break through. " She then noticed Athan's prima shield and said with a doubt, " This...doesn't look like primal energy. "

Tiana told her how Athan got this unique energy and how it was more powerful than the usual primal energy. Qerin was shocked hearing all this.

Athan smiled and told them how his soul became thirty-three meters big after getting all the rewards in the trial and also told them about The Bloopath.

" I say you all should make your soul fifty meters big and eat unima fruit so that you all can also get unima core which will make you more powerful. "

Tiana and Qerin nodded.

At this moment, Avelia also arrived here as she sensed the primal barrier and both Qerin and she started their breakthrough after talking for some time.

Athan sent Tiana outside so that she could temper herself and get rewards. The trial couldn't seal his strength due to unima core, but it will be able to seal Tiana's strength.

He still told her to be careful. However, he would be partially paying attention to her from the special space, so if she is in fatal danger, He will pull her inside.

' But she will likely not fall into fatal danger since she has become sharper at combat after entering this trial. ' Athan thought after sending Tiana outside.

He then sat down near Mike and started to fill up his genome tree's second branch with both souls. From his estimation, It will still take around four-five months before he can fill it.

After Qerin and Avelia broke through, Athan sent them out to participate in the trial.

Mike, on the other hand, finally sensed the primal barrier after five hours.

" Haha, it Looks like I am the last one. " Mike laughed and spoke. His eyes and voice revealed some worries, which Athan noticed.

Mike grinned and started the breakthrough without wasting time, " I don't want to fall behind you all, hehe. "

Athan was a bit doubtful, ' Hmmm, He sounds like he is worried about something. Could it be related to Qerin? I also feel that her behavior slightly changed after she fainted. She mostly likely regained some or all of her memories. '

He wasn't sure about this, But this was not something he would meddle in. He trusted Qerin since she formed death soul contract, and he believed that Qerin would tell them about her situation when she is ready.

' But it looks like Mike guessed that she regained her memories and is worried about it. ' Athan thought while shaking his head with a wry smile.
