As Max crossed the 700-meter mark, the pressure increased slightly again, but it was nowhere near strong enough to stop him.
Though it did manage to slow him down a bit, Max wasn't planning to stop.
Comprehending lightning was the only task he had while climbing the monolith, so with the pace he was ascending, he was steadily comprehending the lightning as he made his way toward the top.
'I should be able to reach the top,' Max mused, glancing at the 1000-meter mark, his eyes gleaming.
Previously, when he ascended the monolith from the start to the 500-meter mark, he hadn't used anything and comprehended his way through to the top. But now, he was using the Fusion State of two auras, which not only had been strengthened by the pressure from the monolith but also made it easier for Max to comprehend lightning.
This was the reason Max's pace had increased significantly after the 550-meter mark.
