Advancing to Rank 1 as an Awakener wasn't complicated.
According to what Michael had read on the forum, advancing was akin to unlocking a power chain, allowing oneself to grow further.
The more chains were unlocked—or rather, the more one advanced—the closer they came to becoming a higher being.
A warm sensation coursed through Michael's body as he prepared to advance.
He had seated himself in a lotus position, as recommended in the posts he had read.
It was suggested either to sit or lie down during the advancement process since many things could happen during it.
Michael had often wondered what those "things" could be, but now that he was experiencing it firsthand, he understood.
The warm sensation grew hotter until it felt like his head was on the verge of bursting from the heat.
Sweat began dripping from his body, but he couldn't even groan in protest.
