Athan and others entered the portal and arrived on top of the Ocean of Lightning.

The countdown appeared in golden texts beside Athan as well.

:59

:58

Athan didn't waste time and dived into the ocean with Primo, Pixilote, and Taezin.

Nina also dived down, but a golden barrier protected her so nothing could hurt her.

"Taezin, you will continuously provide barriers while Primo will clear the lightning on the way with his space power. Pixilote will confuse and drive away the monsters from our path with her dream abilities. We don't need to kill monsters and just have them clear the path, so Pixilote's power is best for that," Athan said.

Primo, Taezin, and Pixilote nodded as they started working.

The four of them dived down rapidly as they saw red, green, dark blue, black, etc., lightning bolts suddenly materialized INSIDE the ocean before attacking Athan and others.

But Primo cleared away those lightning bolts with his space matrix power by opening portal matrix veils where if lightning struck towards them, Primo would conjure matrix veil in the front, in which the lightning would enter. The lightning entering that veil would come out from another matrix veil at a different location.

*ROARRR...*

Giant snakes and sharks also arrived, but Pixilote put them to sleep and dream as Athan and others passed by them without trouble and continued down towards the Seabed.

After a minute, those monsters would regain their consciousness, but Athan and others would've been far deep down in the ocean by then.

*CRACKLE...BOOOM...*

A bolt of black lightning struck the veil, but it instead destroyed Primo's veil and continued towards Athan.

However, The Heavenly Pentagon barrier of Taezin successfully blocked the black lightning bolt.

The four of them continued with this teamwork and easily reached the Seabed in five minutes, successfully passing the test.

A portal appeared at the Seabed after Athan touched the Seabed.magic"Let's go; this is the portal to the 3rd floor," Nina said.

...

Athan and others arrived at the third floor, which was a sea with lots of islands.

"We will have to do island hopping on this floor," Nina said with a smile, "To make the 2nd floor's portal appear, we collect fifty island tokens. The island token will randomly appear when you kill a monster. Know that you need to have 50 different island tokens."

"There should be resources on these islands as well, right?" Athan asked.

"Indeed," Nina nodded, "there will be resources, but don't forget that many people already entered before you. The monsters re-spawns, but resources don't. You couldn't find that many resources on the 4th and 5th floor as well."

"Screw resources then," Athan narrowed his eyes, "we will have to quickly reach 1st floor and get the top rank contribution for best rewards."

"Hehe, you will have to hurry because once five people reach the 1st floor, the Lord of Labyrinth will spawn, and two have already reached the 1st floor," Nina said with a grin.

"It looks like I will have to fight from now on to reach there quickly," Athan wryly said before he flew up, "Let'go Primo, Taezin, Pixilote! You three go to three different islands and start killing monsters. Once you get an island token, come to me and give me the token before moving to another island."

"Roger, Master!" Primo, Taezin, and Pixilote shouted with spirit as they flew on different islands.

"Isn't that risky?" Nina asked with raised eyebrows as she asked while flying alongside Athan.

"Rewards comes with risk," Athan grinned before he consumed twenty Abyssal Blood Crystals at the same time.

After he refined that Vitality Bamboo and absorbed its power to make his body stronger, his capacity to activate Abyssal Blood Crystal increased.

Now he can use 20 Abyssal Blood Crystals at the same time.

First, he consumed 3 Abyssan Blood Crystal to activate void frames and then dived into an island.

*ROARRRRRRRR...*

A giant gorilla jumped onto Athan right after he landed on the island. "Go to hell," Athan muttered as he was in Zontheos Prime void frame and threw <Oblivion Fist of Wisps> by consuming 3 ABC (Abyssal Blood Crystals) worth of energy towards the incoming gorilla.

*BOOOM...Kri...kri...kri...*

The gorilla was blasted into motes.

*Shaaaaaa...*

Suddenly, a snake came out from the ground and bit Athan's leg before infusing toxic into his leg, which made him numb.

However, the ABC energy flowing in his body entirely destroyed that toxin in a second, and Void Crux recovered his functions by consuming some void pulse.

Two more snakes came towards Athan from two other sides, and they were more powerful, with 19,987 Anarchy symbols around them.

However, Athan grinned and clapped loudly!

<Apocolyptic Clap>

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOM....*

All three snakes were reduced to motes after Athan used 3 ABC worth of energy.

When Athan used 3 ABC worth of energy, the Anarchy symbols around him only reached 12,409, but they still managed to kill those three snakes.

In a way, those 19,987 symbols around snakes displayed their offensive power since they were attacking, but their defense was non-existence against Athan's super powerful potent ABC energy, which was the combination of Abyssal darkness, Voidpulse, his physical vital energy, and soul energy.

*Tink..*

After those three snakes were obliterated, a glowing token also fell onto the ground.

"Got one," Athan said with a beaming smile as he picked it up and flapped his blinking wings as he shot upward before diving onto another island.

Right when he landed, Primo, Taezin, and Pixilote also arrived there and handed him a token each.

"Good job! Let's keep this pace up," Athan said with a smile as he put the four tokens and gave them to Nina.

*ROARRRRR....*

A winged lion appeared with 20,000 Anarchy symbols around him, but Athan snorted and turned into Arcane Lord void frame before releasing Magnum Arcane Bullets by consuming 3 ABC worth of energy.

The bullets put holes in the lion before turning it into motes.

'Let's see how strong monsters I can successfully defeat by using three Abyssal Blood Crystals worth of energy,' Athan thought, 'I can also hone my techniques more while fighting and try to incorporate Lotus Bomb formation in my Arcane Lord techniques.'
