The moment Max stepped into the Comprehension Hall, a soft ripple passed over his body like a wave of warm wind—and then everything changed. In the blink of an eye, the solid stone corridor vanished, and he suddenly found himself standing in a vast, surreal world unlike anything he had seen before.

All around him, hundreds of dome-like buildings rose from the earth, each one glowing with a faint aura and pulsing with the essence of profound energy.
On top of every dome was a name carved in glowing script—Crimson Reaper, Black Sun, Flame Tyrant, and many others—each representing a unique Totem Stone, each housing a different path of comprehension.
But that wasn't all.
