Chapter 931 Approaching Danger

Inside the cave, Evan slowly opened his eyes. For a split second, his deep black eyes flashed with dark purple void energy before they returned to normal.

Although the energy released by the Rune of Origin wasn't able to evolve his domain, it still solidified the energy pathways between the energy ring and his core, saving him a few hours of effort.

"Increase my authority as an Origin Holder, huh," Evan muttered in a low voice, looking at the notifications he received earlier.

He still remembered that when the Syncretization between his race and the Origin Universe increased, he received a notification telling him that his position as the Holder of Origin had further solidified.

"Do I need to increase the Syncretization rate to increase my authority?" Evan muttered in a low voice, confused because he did not know anything about what this Holder of Origin thing was.

"Are you done?" Just when Evan was immersed in his thoughts, he heard Octavius' frightful voice and saw the old man looking at him with eyes full of resentment.

Evan was confused seeing the way the old man was looking at him, but when he looked around and saw the condition of the cave, he finally understood what happened.

"Was it caused by my Domain?" He asked after a moment of silence, looking at the walls of the cave that were lightly damaged.

Evan was quite surprised upon seeing the damaged walls because although he wasn't sure what kind of material the cave walls were made of, he had inspected them before he started to create his domain, so he knew just how durable they were.

On top of that, he could see that the Rank Three alchemy cauldron he had given to Octavius was filled with cracks, seemingly on the verge of collapse.

Seeing the damage around him, he quickly looked behind him, and seeing Elora was sleeping on the bed without any injuries, he sighed in relief.

When Octavius heard Evan's question, his eyes twitched uncontrollably.

"Do you see anyone else here other than you who can cause such damage?"

Evan didn't reply to Octavius' question and instead marvelled at the power of his domain.

But after a few seconds, he felt something was not right as it was impossible for his newly created domain to cause such damage.

He wasn't underestimating the power of his domain, but it was simply impossible for it to nearly destroy a Rank Three cauldron which was made of special materials to hold the refining process of high-level pills and herbs.

'Something is definitely wrong here,' Evan thought to himself and looked at Octavius with a serious look. "Can you tell me what happened?"

Octavius was taken aback when he saw Evan's serious look, but noticing he was thinking about something, he didn't hide anything and told everything that happened earlier.

As Evan listened to Octavius, he wasn't surprised to hear about the spiritual pressure of his domain as he already knew about its functions.

It can be said that although not much, Evan still received great insight into using his Void Energy through his spiritual senses upon the completion of his domain.

Now he just needed to experiment a bit, and he would be able to use his Void Energy in many different ways.

The first part of the explanation about the absurd spiritual power of his domain didn't affect him, but when Evan heard the last part, his expression finally changed.

"So you mean to say all of this damage was caused by my domain in the last few seconds before I receded it?" He asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"Yes, although your domain was powerful from the moment it started to take shape, it was not strong enough to affect the cave walls or the cauldron. But during the last few seconds, the power of your domain suddenly surged and it started to affect the walls and cauldron as well."

'A sudden power amplification... It must be related to the energy that the Rune of Origin released,' Evan thought inwardly and activated his domain.

As he used his domain, his Void Energy started to move through the newly formed pathways between his core and the void energy ring, and a dark purple energy field came out of his body, covering the entire cave.

Octavius was caught inside Evan's domain, but he didn't panic like before as he knew the current domain was fully under Evan's control and wouldn't harm him.

Once the domain covered the entire cave, Octavius raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Its power is lower than before," He said, noticing the domain wasn't able to damage the cave walls or the Rank Three cauldron that was already on the verge of collapse.

'As expected, it seems the sudden increase in power was really related to the energy released by the Rune of Origin,' Evan thought to himself as his eyes flashed with a thoughtful look.

'I wonder what kind of changes my Domain would have gone through if the energy released by the Rune of Origin had successfully evolved it,' Evan thought and sighed inwardly, feeling pity that his Domain didn't evolve.

But he didn't continue to dwell on this matter as there was still something that he needed to do.

He looked at the Time Watch in his hands and noticed it would stay active for two more hours, leaving him with forty hours to finish what he wanted to do.

"Is it ready?" He asked Octavius after looking at the remaining time.

Octavius nodded upon hearing Evan and gave him a pill bottle. Evan looked inside the bottle and saw a rainbow-coloured pill.

"Do you think you will succeed?" Octavius suddenly asked, feeling unsure because he had never heard of anyone who evolved their Domain into a Zone just after its creation.

Evan smiled upon hearing Octavius but didn't say anything.

Seeing Evan wasn't saying anything, Octavius shook his head and didn't ask further.

Evan placed the Breaker Pill beside him and drank a recovery potion, trying to return to his peak condition before he took the pill.

While Evan was preparing to evolve his Domain, unknown to him, two Rank Six enemies were coming towards the first layer of the Tomb.
