Ocean Master

Chapter 283 - Forming The Mana Core Foundation!



[Gene Limiter has been ruptured!]

[Origin Law sensitivity has been increased!]

[Congratulations! You have unlocked the origin of passive laws!]

Sebastian was astonished by this sudden change that did not follow the script that was already written in his head. According to his experience, evolution was to start immediately after he made his evolution choice but this time it was different.

"Gene limiter has been ruptured…, what is a gene limiter?"

Even while this question nagged at his mind, Sebastian could already feel the changes that were going through his soul at this moment.

In the illusion realm, he was detached from his body and could only feel soul fluctuations but Sebastian guessed that his body was undergoing even more changes at this moment.

His energy level rose rapidly, his mana quality increased exponentially.

As all these changes happened, Sebastian no longer felt like he was at the bottom rung of the ladder. For some reason, he felt powerful as a burst of confidence suddenly erupted in his heart.

All these changes increased so much in such a marginal manner that he suddenly felt like he was a caterpillar that was breaking from its shackles to become an unrestrained butterfly.

He felt full of energy, he felt refreshed, he felt reborn.

This was when it clicked in his head. As soon as he thought of being reborn, he remembered a sentence that was always embedded at the back of his mind.

"…Breaking through to the purple tier is not just an evolution, it is like a crystallization of your being".

This was the current sentence structure that he was looking for!

At this moment, Sebastian felt so good that he seemed to be evolving from a normal Megalodon and being crystallized to form a different unique Megalodon entirely. The experience was a novelty.

From that lecture given by Old Mak, the clan head didn\'t just speak about the purple tier breakthrough being a crystallization of your being.

If his memory was not wrong, he also remembered that after the pivotal crystallization in the new tier of purple swimming, all these other basic skills evolve to such a passive state that it feels no different from eating.

Sebastian finally found the answer for why some of his skills were not shown as options during his evolution selection process.

Due to his time limit, he did not have the time to pay attention to this anomaly but now he seemed to have understood the reason.

Amid his wildly raging thoughts, this strange feeling finally ended. As soon as it came to an end, Sebastian\'s system lit up a new notification.

[Congratulations! You have unlocked the origin of passive laws!]

[Your limit receptibility to origin law has increased!]

[You have unlocked the following passive skills!]

[Passive Skills: Instinctive Swimming, Empowered Body Fins, Healing, Mega Smell, Bane of Mammoth Crocodiles, Undying Zombie.]

Sebastian finally understood everything.

For a long time, most especially in his recent challenge in the Sea King\'s inheritance ground, he had always felt that he had been missing something, now he finally understood where this feeling came from.

According to the system, he just unlocked the origin of passive laws which meant that as an orange tier predator, he was not qualified for these.

Perhaps, it was because of this instinctive limit that he forgot about the 2 passive skills that he got after his encounter with the Red tier Devouring Octopus.

Now, Sebastian could finally make use of them, and not only that, some of his skills that were originally active were now passive.

He finally understood why Old Mak categorized this as enabling purple-tier predators to become more powerful. 

As these were already passive skills, he could spend less energy on them and better focus on damaging skills which could easily prove to become the game-changer in a battlefield situation. 

Before Sebastian could satisfy his curiosity and excitement completely due to this unexpected change, another unexpected change happened.

[Evolution process has started!]

This time, Sebastian saw what could be described as a miracle.

Since transmigrating into this world, Sebastian kept on seeing manifestations of the origin magic essence and he also made use of it daily, but for the first time in his life, he saw real origin magic.

The water seemed to have turned berserk, the green glow of the green mist Sea kept on fluctuating as a magic convergence that looked like a mountain flood rushed down towards Sebastian\'s unprotected soul.

The origin magic in this region was stirred, forming a berserk whirlpool of wildly raging origin magic.

The real origin magic had a purplish-black color, the thickness, and quality of the mana before Sebastian at this moment were unprecedented.

Sebastian did not doubt that if he let this mountain flood of origin magic collide against him, the effects would be dangerous.

This was when he started remembering Tonado\'s meticulous guidance. He already understood what was happening unlike other predators that would have been in his place, Tonado already revealed all the mysteries to him.

From Tonado\'s guidance, the amount of primordial origin magic that poured in depended on his foundation. And from the same guidance, he knew that such a fountain of origin magic was abnormal.

Sebastian already expected something like this though, he would have felt surprised if his evolution was not an anomaly.

Putting aside the advantages that were stacked on him by his system, his origin magic, and physical qi accumulation was already astonishing enough, hardly any predator of his tier could lift a finger towards him.

All these already guaranteed that he would receive a flood of primordial origin magic during his evolution, but the real push that made it this ridiculous was the gains that he got from the Sea King\'s inheritance ground.

Ingesting so many cores was not a small matter, they succeeded in taking his foundation for the breakthrough to the highest point possible to him.

This was why his primordial origin magic descent was so exaggerated.

Though Sebastian felt proud that this was the case, he was already serious as he knew that this was a critical moment. This was the moment that would define whether he would succeed or fail.

At this moment, Sebastian\'s ethereal senses already increased to the maximum. Apart from the primordial origin magic, he could now sense his magic and physical qi that were red and blue respectively.

Without any hesitation, he mobilized his physical and magic qi.

Vroom!

From the depths of his soul, Sebastian felt like an ancient dragon was awakening as the astonishing accumulation of red and blue rose aggressively.

Sebastian fumbled with the control of these 2 energies at first, but it only took him a few seconds before he became proficient at it.

The next moment before the origin magic collided against his fragile soul, Sebastian manipulated the 2 energies to form a sturdy shield.

BOOM!

Primordial origin magic collided with the energy accumulation, then a shockwave of the ethereal realm tyrannically spread everywhere as soul fluctuations increased in this realm.

Sebastian\'s soul endured the strain, despite the fluctuations, he was able to grit his ethereal teeth and maintain the ethereal shield.

"As soon as the magic essence pours in, to control it, you need to mobilize your physical and magic qi. Due to the significance of this breakthrough, you will receive heightened senses where you can feel qi directly".

"With this, you mobilize your physical and magic qi. You carefully mix them together until it forms a firm mix of white and black, then the origin magic enters".

"This mix of white and black is the home of the origin magic, and after evolution, this is what crystallizes to form your magic core".

At this moment, Sebastian could hear Tonado\'s voice beside his ears.

Vroom!

Before the origin magic could accumulate momentum for another impact, Sebastian pushed away his strain and fatigue and started manipulating his physical and magic qi, trying to mix them to form the intended goal.

The firm mix of white and black convergence was his goal though he was not sure about how it would happen.

Sebastian stumbled frequently in his control, the pressure of the origin magic\'s rising momentum got to him, but he gritted his teeth, wiped away his imaginary sweat, and remained focused on his goal.

Sebastian focused so much that he lost his perception of his surroundings.

All his attention was on creating the foundation for his mana core.

Whoosh!

After accumulating enough momentum, the primordial origin magic came slamming down again like a flood of water from a broken dam.

The fierce pressure and the rushing force that it exhibited presented an intimidating outlook that could induce fear in anyone, but Sebastian whose sole attention was now on maintaining his control could not see this.

The origin magic\'s descent got so close till it was merely a few inches from Sebastian\'s body, then this was when the change took place.

After maintaining the firm mix of red and blue for a few seconds, a qualitative change suddenly came about as it turned into a black and white mix of energy.

At this moment, this mixture seemed like the iconic depiction of yin and yang energy, this energy convergence solidified to an astonishing degree the next moment as the origin magic finally collided against it.

Whoosh!

This time, no explosive sound was induced as the origin magic started seeping into the firm mix of black and white like it was a dimensional storage box.

Sebastian could not pay attention to the details; the amount of origin magic was so much that he had to maintain the firm mix of black and white for 2 seconds which was absolutely draining.

By the time the infusion ended, he was drained completely.

In the end, he succeeded.

Sebastian couldn\'t admire the end product of his efforts though because he was completely exhausted, but he smiled as he saw his system notification.

[Congratulations! Mana core foundation has been formed!]

[Commencing evolution…]

Sebastian\'s world went dark, the real evolution began.
