Over the past six months at the academy, Tyler had been immersed in intense Cultivation. The thing he got from Senior Cyan called Mercury Fruit had become central to his training.
This rare and volatile fruit, harvested from the dangerous Abyss, could not be consumed directly.
Instead, it had to be contained in specially crafted vessels, as it would melt and turn gaseous within seconds of being plucked.
Only powerful immortal practitioners dared handle the Mercury Fruit. By sealing themselves within an array, they could safely absorb the gaseous essence emitted by the fruit, allowing them to cultivate and enhance their powers.
Mercury Fruit was especially effective for Elite-level practitioners, with the potential to elevate them to Master level after just one or two fruits.
Tyler, however, was beyond typical practitioners. Inside his room, he sat casually, a rare scene of calm amidst the volatile essence swirling around him.
