Capítulo 171: Advancement

Breaking through to the second Rank of the core didn't take much effort from his side. 

In the span of five minutes, Liam's core churned with high amounts of world essence as it slowly shrank in size, compressing the solid state 'Ora'.

The process required his constant focus and care, often to push back the walls of his core using his mental energy so it wouldn't collapse. 

His abdomen burned and chilled at the same time, but he was accustomed to those feelings.

As it slowly condensed, Liam felt like his core would explode.

To his relief, it didn't. Instead, the solid-state 'Ora' began to melt due to the pressure it faced. 

From solid it changed to liquid, and from liquid to gaseous.

It was back to the starting point!

However, the quality of gaseous 'Ora' inside his core was brilliantly pure and dense. 

It easily trumped his Rank 1's solid-stage.
