Leo checked all the buildings in the area and two buildings piqued his interest, one was the Formation and the other was the Alchemy.
Leo still did not know how to do alchemy and make formations, so he put that aside for now. What really piqued his interest was the cultivation building.
Leo went in and noticed that the first floor of the building felt very comfortable for some odd reason, he then checked the second floor and noticed that the comfortable feeling was lesser.
The more Leo went up the lesser the comfort, so Leo decided to go back to the first floor.
Leo was worried about one problem, he might not be able to get inside the cultivation rooms and it seems he needed some kind of tokens. There were slots on it so that may be the reason.
Leo approached one of the doors and then his worries vanished, the door instantly opened when it felt Leo's presence as if it knew he was there.
Leo entered and then he was surprised to see that it was more comfortable inside the room rather than the hallway, he noticed the engravings on the whole room.
The engravings were all connected to one point in the room, Leo sat cross-legged on the center of the room.
Leo opened the book for his cultivation technique 'Red Dragon Transformation', he then felt a sudden surge of knowledge going inside his brain and when it stopped Leo felt like he knew this technique like he was breathing.
The book then crumbled to nothingness, Leo understood the reason why the Red Dragon Clan makes a copy the instant a person takes one of the books.
Leo tried to use the cultivation technique and he felt that the comfortable aura in the room was gradually being absorbed by him.
Leo thought that this comfortable feeling was the so called World Energy, so he felt a sense of accomplishment when he was doing it.
The world energy circulated around his body through his nose, whenever he took a breathe a small part of the energy would flow with the oxygen and mix with his blood.
The world energy then circulates into the whole body and is slowly fused in the center of his body, the world energy slowly accumulated into a sphere.
Leo finished the circulation a third time and suddenly felt like he was a vortex.
It was like his cultivation technique noticed the abundant world energy around him and it gathered it faster than ever before.
Leo felt that his body was slowly getting stronger and every world energy that he absorbed was being combined with his body, his organs and muscles were getting stronger.
His bones were getting firmer, the dead skin on his body was being constantly changed with new and lighter skin. Leo looked more handsome than before.
Leo's body stopped from constantly changing, into a complete halt from all bodily changes. It took ten or so minutes before it stopped and when it did it meant this phenomenon has ended.
Leo was about to open his Comm-link but he suddenly felt an extreme amount of pain, he fell to the floor and groaned in pain.
The pain he felt was like being constantly ripped apart and then being repaired again, the pain he felt was enough to make him pass out if he doesn't do anything soon.
Leo bit his tongue and blood came out dripping from his mouth. Five minutes passed by and finally all of Leo's hard work paid off, his body also got strengthened one more time.
Leo has done the Dragon's leap, although it is just the first level it is no joke and it is almost harder than every breakthrough one could make.
Leo had a wide grin on his face, he had a sense of accomplishment as he was able to pass through one of the hardest breakthroughs.
Leo asked himself "Why was I able to have a breakthrough in less than an hour?".
He checked his Comm-link and searched the fastest human to breakthrough. Leo found it immediately as it was obviously very famous, the recorded time was five months and so Leo was astonished.
Leo asked himself "Why am I so fast? Is it because of this technique?", Leo remembered that a Dragonewt cultivates faster than a human by five times "If that is true aren't dragons supposed to cultivate faster?".
Leo kept asking himself loads of things and in the end made a conclusion that the reason for such things to happen is only because of one fact, this technique of his is truly meant to transform the user into a dragon.
Leo went to the next building, he heard that he needed to stabilize his cultivation through battles and the building he was going to is really perfect.
The building he went to was the one that had a sign saying "Red Dragon Trials", Leo noticed the building had 100 floors and he also noticed another sign.
The sign said "Those who falter are not worthy, those who don't are truly talented", Leo understood what the sign meant and it only meant this one thing.
A person cannot stop when he has started to climb the tower, if you think about it most people might have failed instantly for they didn't continue to advance.
There was a sign on the side saying "A person can only go here once".
Leo felt it was too early but nevertheless he continued his advance, thinking about the possibility that this was also part of the trial as there were only 100 floors if one were to count this floor.
Leo noticed that there was an elevator but he didn't use it, he was being cautious and so he walked up through the stairs.
Leo took a step up and he was happy that he was cautious, every step he took the harder he took to take another one.
Leo thought what might have happened if he took the elevator, maybe if he took one step out of it he would instantly feel the accumulated pressure and pass out almost instantly.
Leo was able to reach the second floor and he met some kind of robot, this type of robot looked kind of weird as it wasn't like the really life-like robots they have today. The robot was just like the dummy robot from Tekken.
Leo thought it was weak the moment he noticed it but he shrugged that thought away almost instantly, he saw it himself the robot could move as fast as the wind.
The robot was already about to punch Leo hard in the face but before he could Leo moved faster than it by manifolds, Leo was able to dodge by a hair's breathe.
Leo found it weird that he was able to move this fast, but this was not even the weirdest thing and the weirdest part was the fact that it was not even his intention to dodge.
Leo was able to clearly see the movements of the robot, he tried to use the movement skill that he had not even started to practice which was Quick Steps.
Leo moved faster than the robot, he was so fast that he could easily dodge the robot. Leo tried punching the robot, the robot was immediately blown to smithereens and it's parts scattered on the floor.
The floor seemed to glow and another set of stairs appeared, it was just like the whole thing was an illusion.
Leo then noticed that the robot was being absorbed by the floor, he then thought "Maybe the building can also fix them" with this thought in his mind he fought.
Every floor one robot was added and on the tenth floor he met an even more powerful robot, there were 11 robots in total.
One of the robots was made in a different material as his color was green.
Leo moved immediately and he punched the other ten to smithereens. Leo was about to punch the green robot but it leaped to the air and dodged.
The robot was about to counterattack and Leo noticed that it was not too fast, so he tried to dodge it but this decision could only make him regret trying to punch the robot.
The robot's fist suddenly had a green mist enveloping it, it's fist moved faster than ever before and as if it was a Gatling Gun it punched Leo continuously.
Leo lost his balance and he was punched to the air, it did not last long though as he was also smacked down by the robot.
The robot was about to punch Leo while he was on the ground but Leo was able to stand up and regain his footing, sadly it didn't even put a smile on Leo's face as the robot continued punching Leo.
Every punch that Leo received made him groan in pain and every ten or so seconds he would spit a small amount of blood, after a whole minute the robot let out a black steam.
Leo knew that this was his chance, the robot was overheating and it had stopped moving. Leo moved swiftly as he constantly punched the robot to pieces.
He knew that the robot's body was steaming hot, but he continuously punched it nonetheless.
He was infusing world energy on his fists, though his world energy was also being used up really fast as it was just a few minutes earlier when he had a breakthrough.
The more Leo punched the robot the more his fists bled, the moment he destroyed the robot the floor glowed but unlike the other floors there was something extra.
