Brrrrr!
Derik could feel his body strengthening as his beast god soul enhanced his little body even further! He could feel the mana flowing through his body and he guessed that his mana pool is far greater than that of a normal mage at the first stage of the human realm. Seated in a cross-legged position, within the massive yellow pool, Derik stayed in silence as he was distracted by the feeling he got from it.
The needle stings were not as painful as he expected anymore but instead, it was more pleasant and Derik found it interesting. He could feel his muscles toughen and his skin got stronger but with the added advantage of his Lycan side, Derik was sure his strength would be on par with that of a warrior realm master or even surpass it. His body swelled up and reduced occasionally as his body greedily consumed every cultivation material invested into this chamber!
