    "Well"


    Azmond started pondering over his new system interface with a contemtive expression.


    There was truly so much that had changed. All the way from his increase in levels to his newws and even to the new Primordial Yin he had acquired from Boundless.


    It was a feat that he didn''t even know was possible, but that wasn''t really the main matter at hand, as Azmond was far more interested in his levels,ws, and, of course, strength!


    His strength had increased from the Initial Stages of the Late Unity Form Synthesis Realm to the Peak Stages of the Unity Form Synthesis Realm in a matter of weeks!


    And although that may not seem like much, the chasm between realms only grew bigger and bigger the further cultivators traveled down the road of cultivation.


    Which was also one of the main reasons why his additionalbat strength gained from Emu, his Laws, and his strongest techniques were closing the gap with his base stats.


    There would evene a day when his additional boons to strength from exterior methods would be in the same minor realm as his base stats. But that would be a long, long time from now, so he didn''t fret over it.


    And speaking ofws, Azmond had acquired the [Serpentine] and [Stealth] Laws when he dispatched of that anaconda monster a few days ago.


    And he was expecting morews from the rest of the Void Refining Monsters he had killed, but it looked like it was extremely rare for a monster to have even the smallest modicum ofprehension in awthat anaconda was simply an anomaly among the Void Refining Realm Beings.


    It was significantly stronger than its realm, so its being special didn''t reallye as a surprise to Azmond.


    Nheless, he wasn''t too worried about not being able to acquire morews, for a lot of the monsters past the Peak Unity Form Synthesis Realm would almost always have aprehension of aw of some sort.


    After all, the Half-Step Tribtion Transcendence Realm was the prelude realm to the Tribtion Transcendence Realm. And the Tribtion Transcendence Realm required at least the smallest amount ofprehension in a Mortal Rankw to breakthrough into said realm.


    Therefore, Azmond would soon not need to worry about whether or not he would be capable of acquiring more Laws.


    All he needed to do was surpass the Half-Step Tribtion Transcendence Realm in strength, and he would have the necessary ability to ''loot'' all the Half-Step Tribtion Transcendence Realm and above monsters of everything they''re worth!


    Azmond wasn''t too far from such a point either, as all he needed to do was breakthrough into the Middle Quantum Golden Core Formation Realm, and he would immediately achieve a Half-Step Tribtion Transcendence Realmbat power!


    Such an event should happen within the next two weeks or soa brief period of time that Azmond wasn''t too worried about, as he would still be climbing the world-sized steps of the Luminous Grounds by then.


    He might even be able to speed up that process with a few additional ''snu snu sessions'' with Boundless as well.


    They had already been ''hard at work'' over thest week, but it seemed like that wasn''t enough for him...


    There were many other changes to his System Interface; however, all of that was mostly self-exnatory, so Azmond left all that as is.


    After all, he still had to find someone to give him a way to transit up that seemingly insurmountable crimson-colored ''wall'' that separated them from the second floor.


    |So, who are we going to ask, Azmond?|


    Boundless''s voice dripped into Azmond''s ears as she floated around him, gazing at all the different shops that were set up by monsters in this Steampunk City called ''Cogsworth''.


    They had learned the name of the city through the activation of the ''Discerning Quantum Eye''.


    It was a neat use that Azmond hadn''t even thought to try before.


    Nheless, this city dubbed ''Cogsworth'' was a rtively bustling ce, as hundreds of thousands of monsters zipped in and out of the red brickyered streets, with every single one of them in their far smaller humanoid forms.


    What exactly they were up to was of no concern to Azmond, as the only thing he cared about was finding a way to make it up to the second floor without attracting the attention of any Tribtion Transcendence Realm Cultivators.


    Azmond ultimately ended uping out of his reverie, as he heard the question Boundless had asked him.


    "Who to ask? Well I haven''t really thought too much about it, but if I were to simply stick a finger up and guess, then I would go with"


    He stuck a finger up, and the first monster that itnded on was a swankin in well-dressed attire.


    The swanking had on a red and gold suit of moderately high quality whenpared to the rest of the monsters in humanoid form walking around.


    And that wasn''t the only rtively debonair thing about this figure, as he also wore a monocle and a top hat, which naturally gave Azmond the assumption that he was of the higher ss in ''Cogsworth''.


    "This guy''s the one," Azmond stated with a confident look on his face.


    He didn''t even need to confirm his theory with his Discerning Quantum Eye, as he simply knew that this swankin was the one that would help them up to the second floor.


    *Tap tap*


    So naturally, Azmond wasted no time and made his way over to the swankina swankin who was standing underneath a brownish awning, clearly waiting for something or someone to happen.


    "Yo- Err, I mean, you have what we need, don''t you??"


    Azmond almost got out of character for a moment there, but luckily he saved himself in time and asked an ambiguous question.


    He was still in his silver foxkin form, so goingx on his arrogant and refined attitude was a big no-no!


    "Hmm?" The swankin took one look at the silver foxkin who approached him and instantly understood what he was asking about.
