Chapter 335 Rank 4

Chapter 335 Rank 4
Time passed.
Lith cultivated and took rest from time to time. It's been a few weeks and he was close to ascending to Rank 4. As he had predicted earlier, even with just simple meditation and his past experiences, it was easy to cultivate.
While he was doing his boring cultivation, changes took place in the outside world.
Lucy was finally done with everything related to the hierarchy of the vampires and now, only an official announcement was needed to be made. She wanted to do it as soon as possible but Lith was busy meditating and was not available. For this, she postponed this thing again.
Arya was in Scelestus, managing things. She took Alexandra with her and was training her there in the Hidden Continent itself. Arya had ascended to Supreme Rank and before this she felt that being a Supreme Rank was the last stage of cultivation.
But, she was wrong. She felt that she could still cultivate and improve and so she was doing just that. Training Alexandra was helping her cultivate and so, Arya got twice the benefits from doing so. Not only was she able to train her little sister, she was also able to train herself.
Alexandra was still a member of the Shadow River Sect. Since she was a core court disciple, she had a lot of leeway and could do many things. One of which was to train alone or leave the sect if needed. Since the sect was on lockdown, she wasn't allowed to leave but making an excuse that she was cultivating in seclusion, she left the sect.
Being with Arya for a while, she realized that Arya was much stronger than she could even think of. She finally knew the prowess of her sisters. Arya was a Supreme Rank and Emilia was an Emperor Rank Seraphim. She started having a bit of respect for the two and readily agreed to train with Arya.
She didn't know that she was in the Hidden Continent or in the headquarters of Scelestus as Arya hadn't mentioned it to her. The reason was that she forgot. Arya hardly cared about such things and focused only on the main ones. The main goal of her's was to train Alexandra and cultivate by herself from time to time.
Leaving the two aside, Emilia was in the academy. As usual, it was nothing out of the ordinary that was going on with her. She trained Ralph and Dennis and worked in the office. Sel was amused watching how sincere Emilia had become to work and was trying to finish it.
It was true, Emilia was working harder than usual. She was doing so because she wanted to be free for a while a few years later when Lith would come back from his training. He said he would marry her and so she needed to make time for herself.
Emilia was the head of the academy, the principal. Her decisions affected the daily lives of the students in the academy and she couldn't just take things lightly. The future of these teens would be in danger if she did so.
Being a Seraphim, she cared for all beings in this world, no matter the race or anything else. Add onto that, the academy kids were her responsibility now as she was the principal. She thus ensured that she didn't mess up things that would create problems in their career ahead.
There were two mistakes that happened already while in her term as the principal. There were many smaller ones happening as well but these two mattered to her the most.
One was that Alexandra's parents were killed due to the academy's mistake and the other was that Lith's identity was almost revealed to the world. Despite being careful, such problems still occurred.
Emilia had learnt from her mistake and brushed off the thing related to Alexandra from her mind. But now that Alexandra became her family, these memories were brought back to her and it mattered more. Thus, she worked extra hard to ensure that such a thing never happened.
A few more days passed.
Lith finally felt that he would ascend to Rank 4. He prepared himself for it and started with his breakthrough.
Lilith was sitting just a few meters away from and was watching over his every move. She was doing it to ensure his safety. The last time when Lith was breaking through to just Rank 3, he accidentally ended up in the Astral Plane. She hadn't expected such a thing to happen.
Lucy entered the Astral Plane when she broke through to the Immortal realms, that is, became a Saint Rank. Things happened much earlier with Lith, surprising her. Thus, she was extra careful this time and was watching over him.
A few more days later, Lith began his ascension to Rank 4.
Lith had comprehended almost all elements. Just comprehending the laws of Light were remaining. Once he does that, he would ascend immediately.
Lith started doing just that now. As he did so, bright rays of light shined all around him, making him appear as some divine being. The dimly lit cave became brightly lit and the intensity of light was increasing further as Lith cultivated.
Two days later, Lith's Magic Core changed colors fully, ensuring his successful breakthrough to Rank 4.
Changes occurred in his Magic Core's area as well as the inside environment of it. But nothing too major occurred and it was just the usual increase in area and improvement in the environment present. His Magic Core now had water formed in it and was slowly increasing in mass.
Lith could guess that a few years later, life would start to form as well there. He had read the Evolution chapter in his biology books and from it, he knew a lot of things about it. Judging from how changes occurred in his Magic Core, it was clear that it was following the route of the same thing he had read in the books.
After Earth was formed, it was just like a ball of fire. Then water was formed and then land came into existence. Soon, anaerobic organisms came into existence like cyanobacteria and they made oxygen be available in the atmosphere.
The gas composition of Earth's atmosphere changed later and oxygen became available in a good amount. Soon, due to that, a lot of organisms came into existence and these were the aerobic ones.
From being single celled organisms, these organisms evolved further and finally after many millions of years, they became a complex organism containing billions of cells, which was no one else but the homosapiens, also known as humans.
As of now, only a bit of water was formed in Lith's core and it would take time for it to develop further. But whatever the case, Lith finally became Rank 4. He was a bit surprised knowing nothing flashy happened and he ascended normally.
But brushing this thought off, he once again started cultivating and aimed to breakthrough to Rank 5 as soon as possible.
