“Rumble…”
The large gate, carved with the character “Logic,” slowly closed with a heavy rumbling sound.
The ancient, mysterious aura also disappeared, and the vast plaza returned to silence.
Shien finally came back to his senses, shaking his head to clear the slight dizziness.
“Are you alright?”
Anima came to Shien’s side, placing a hand on his shoulder, her eyes still closed, but her concern was evident.
“I’m fine.” Shien seemed to feel better, exhaling. He murmured, “What did those words mean?”
Anima, who was observing Shien, asked,
“What words?”
Anima looked concerned.
Shien subconsciously wanted to explain to Anima, but stopped himself, not revealing the words Omniis, the Supreme God, had said to him.
His intuition told him that it was best not to tell anyone about this.
Shien felt that the words spoken by Omniis weren’t meant for everyone to hear.
Therefore, after some thought, Shien asked Anima, “How long was I inside?”
Inside the inner sanctum, Shien felt like he had been there for a long time.
But Anima said,
“One minute.” Anima said softly. “The flow of time inside the inner sanctum is different from the outside world. No matter how long the recipient of enlightenment stays inside, only one minute passes in the outside world.”
“Really?” Shien chuckled. “That’s quite a mental time chamber.”
“Mental time chamber?” Anima asked in confusion. “What’s that?”
“Nothing.” Shien brushed it off and changed the subject. “I think I’ve finished my enlightenment.”
This successfully diverted Anima’s attention.
“How was your harvest?”
Anima asked quickly.
She was curious about how much enlightenment and what gains Shien had obtained in the inner sanctum, given his condition.
If she wasn’t mistaken, his gains should be astonishing.
But it didn’t seem to be an increase in level.
Anima could see with her power that Shien’s level was still fifty-nine, not having increased after entering the inner sanctum.
This meant that Shien’s gains must be in other areas.
Did he learn some new skill?
Or did he gain some unprecedented enlightenment?
Anima was filled with anticipation and curiosity.
However, Shien’s expression was somewhat strange.
Were his gains significant?
They should be considered significant, right?
However…
“Let me ask you first, Anima,” Shien said hesitantly, “it’s possible to awaken a Unique Skill in the inner sanctum, right?”
Shien asked this question.
“Yes.” Anima nodded. “In the past, many outstanding humans gained enlightenment regarding Unique Skills in the inner sanctum and awakened their own. This isn’t a secret.” Ra𐌽ỔΒĘȿ
Indeed.
Lucy had also mentioned this, and Shien hadn’t forgotten.
But after confirming this, Shien asked a question that surprised Anima.
“Then, what if… I’m just saying, what if…?” Shien’s expression was still strange as he asked, “If someone has already awakened a Unique Skill, is it possible for them to awaken another one after entering the inner sanctum?”
Anima was stunned.
Awaken another Unique Skill?
Could it be…
“Shien, you…”
Anima’s expression seemed to change.
Shien pursed his lips and asked helplessly, “Is it possible?”
Anima was silent.
After a while, Anima spoke softly.
