章 863: New Path

Atticus claimed he only wanted to meditate, but it was clear this was more than that.

During his battle with Blackgate, when he had been trapped in the labyrinth, he had learned something fascinating about spiritual energy.

They could manipulate and shape spiritual energy, using it to empower themselves, form constructs, and perform various other feats. However, these were all surface-level abilities.
