Hunter's mind (passive)

Mana pool strengthening 30%

When Shane awoke his system, it unleashed the potential of his body, releasing the blessing he ought to have received for both his first and current life!

It had saved his life and helped him in many situations.

Not only were the abilities Hunter's mind and the Mana pool strengthening extremely beneficial, but Shane had assumed that Artemis' blessing had allowed him to tame Umbra and Cosmo easily, in addition to them reaching a perfect loyalty!

Nevertheless, what caused Shane to reveal a vibrant smile despite the tricky situation he was currently in was the message he received.

Artemis' blessing had been forcefully activated due to an unforeseen near-death situation, threshold reached. Unshaken will and determination to grow stronger have been detected. Skill Warrior's Heart has been unsealed!

Warrior's Heart (passive)- The host's excitement and battle spirit to fight against stronger enemies would increase his |blood flow|, |mana circulation|, |mana control|, |pain resistance|, and |body's endurance|.

Shane was unable to figure out what exactly was going on because he had by no means time to read through the notifications he received.

However, from the way his heart was beating rapidly, increasing his internal heat, and the pace at which his blood flowed through his body, further heating him up, Shane could only think that it was something advantageous.

At that moment, he circulated a huge amount of mana through his body, only to sense that it was much easier than before.

Furthermore, he couldn't feel the cold around him at all right now.

Because of that, Shane could revert his distracted mind back to the most important thing he had to take care of; the Miac race's prodigy!

As Shane transferred more and more mana from the Hidden Paradise towards himself, his body bulged, as if it was enlarging.

At least that was what the Miac race's prodigy perceived, causing him to frown because Shane looked like he was completely unaffected by every single skill he had used in succession to create a fake domain around him!

At that moment, the snowstorm that had turned into a blizzard was distorted by the explosively unleashed mana that filled the entire arena, suppressing everything.

Shane's seemingly gigantic appearance changed at once.

An unfathomable pressure radiated from him due to the bloodlust-killing-intent that enveloped him, nurtured by the enormous mana he had released.

The Invincible Scimitar was glowing brightly, and to the Miac, it felt as if their God of War had just incarnated in the body of a being from a different race.

Goosebumps erupted all over his body and he had almost kneeled down, following his primal instincts that told him to obey the being in front of him.

Taking a deep breath, the Miac forced himself to remain standing on his feet as he saw how Shane brandished the Invincible Scimitar while being more than 20 meters apart from him.

To Shane, it felt like he was in control of everything in his surrounding. He didn't feel any pain by transferring and circulating a huge amount of mana through his veins, nor was there any discomfort.

Everything felt as if it was in its correct place, and Shane instinctively slashed at the Miac without even being close to him.

Suddenly, just as Shane cut through the snowstorm, a large amount of mana that had been accumulated within the Invincible Scimitar was released at once, creating something both Shane and the Miac hadn't expected.

It was a thin, yet extremely lethal crescent wind blade manifested out of pure mana.

Out of nowhere, it was released from the Scimitar's blade, shooting through the blizzard at an extremely high velocity, cutting it apart.

Only a moment later, the mana crescent blade reached the Miac race's participant that did not have even a single mana particle left inside his body, cutting through him as if his entire body was a meat sack.

The Grim reaper that had patiently waited, holding the scythe at his neck, reaped the Miac's soul, moments after his body had been cut in half.

With that, the battle ended and Shane retracted the remaining mana inside his body to transfer it back to the Hidden Paradise.

At the same time, he activated its active mana absorption to the highest possible degree.

The passive skill Warrior's Heart lost its effect, leaving Shane with extreme exhaustion and a numbing ache he hadn't felt earlier.

It was only when Shane left the arena that he noticed something.

Everything around him had gone eerily silent, and the remaining participants of the Primordial tournament couldn't help but stare at him in shock.

Being able to create a fake domain to such a great extent was already shocking, and had caused everyone to halt their respective fights for a moment, only to witness Shane's reaction and how he turned the entire battle in his favor in a matter of seconds!

After Shane's battle had ended it took everyone some time to regain their composure and it was only then that they continued fighting against each other.

However, what they had witnessed distracted them as their mind was not able to fully focus on the battle in front of them.

Rather, Shane's appearance that looked like someone with a divine ancestry had incarnated within him for a few seconds, only to disappear the moment the fight had been concluded.

It was eerie and the remaining participants couldn't help but think that there was no way that Shane was just at the Expert stage.

His aura and the distinct bloodlust-killing-intent that had merged with the ginormous amount of mana Shane had released were all indicators that he had to have entered the Intermediate Primordial dimensions a long time ago!

Despite having a low mana purity, there was not a single participant who didn't feel a threatening vibe emanating from Shane because he was simply too dangerous to face!

Everything was uncertain in a fight against him. Was the situation everyone had witnessed just a fluke, something Shane could use multiple times, or just his peak state?

If Shane could release the same amount of mana, aura, and pressure as he did before during every single fight, it would be a waste of time and life to clash against him!

Even if it were only a few seconds, this would be more than enough for Shane to defeat everyone who was facing him without the necessary preparations!

However, the biggest question was, whether simple preparations were enough, or if Shane had found something grand to counter them?

Thousands of questions flashed through the mind of every remaining participant of the Primordial tournament, and it took a while before the ongoing battles returned to the same old intensity as before.

Meanwhile, Shane read through the notification he had received, trying to make sense of it.

This was not easily done, and every single question he answered brought forth even more questions Shane had yet to find an answer to.

Nevertheless, his heart was thumping loudly as adrenaline pumped through his veins.

'Don't disappoint me!!' He shouted in his mind at his future opponents with a crazy smile on his face.

Shane hadn't even realized that something about him had slowly changed, something with a bigger meaning than he could have estimated.

He was ignoring his body's pleas for rest and was greedy to fight even stronger opponents than the Miac race's prodigy he had just faced.
