Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1678

"It's stronger than I expected." Wuhlricht, who was drinking at the edge of the cliff, was left dumbfounded as he sensed the disarray in the spiritual energy around him. He promptly rose to his feet and transmitted a message to everyone in the entire sect. "All disciples, protectors, and elders are to remain in your rooms for the rest of the night. Do not remain outdoors."

The great elder was left surprised by the strong fluctuations of spiritual energy. A wry smile crossed his face as he said, "I didn't think the fluctuation would be so pronounced."

The rest of the sect's members were all puzzled, but none dared to venture outside upon receiving the sect leader's instructions. Even those who were previously enjoying their time outdoors returned swiftly to their rooms.

"I hope you won't hold this against me, Gilda. I had no other option. Severin is a good man, and this only has to happen once. If your boyfriend truly loves you, he wouldn't mind that you had to go through this," Wuhlricht said as he downed yet another drink.

Once the deed was done, Severin wore his clothes and dressed Gilda up, too. The spiritual energy all around him began to calm down, but a huge circular whirlpool had appeared inside Severin's body. He had trouble controlling it at first, and some of them escaped into his body as a result. Within a few minutes, he had reached a breakthrough and ascended to level eight saint. Terrified by the rapid advancement, he followed Wuhlricht's guidance and used his mental power to redirect and gather the vast energy in his energy core.
