章 2119: Last Strike

Grand Magus's ascension was perilous for several reasons. Firstly, it demanded immense determination and concentration to succeed in the tribulation. Even a slight lapse could result in catastrophic failure.

Secondly, the process was fraught with external threats. The powerful energies involved in the ascension would attract formidable beasts and, more ominously, other humans. With an average 60% chance of failure, opportunistic magus often lurked nearby, hoping to loot the remains of the failed magus. In some cases, the deceased magus might leave behind valuable cosmic remains, which could enhance another's soul force or give a fortunate glimpse comprehension of the law.
