All five crimson rings of Ocean Heart had been activated, causing them to pulse with waves upon waves of energy as he felt like the rings were getting closer in his mind. Not only that, but each ring was forming a connection with his abilities.

The first crimson ring connected with Neon Radiance King. The second connected with Sonic Radar. The third connected with Frozen Blood. The fourth connected with Moving Ripple. And lastly, the fifth crimson ring connected with Cloud Whale.

For a moment, it was as if all his abilities were absorbed into a crimson ring each before they were returned to their rightful places. Krune focused as he had already activated all his abilities, now realizing that he had underestimated their potential.

'It's because all my passive abilities are from Monster Emperors. So, they're strong and have enormous room for growth. No other ability might hold a candle to these,' Krune thought, thinking for a moment as he condensed an ice sculpture of the Cloud Whale before him.

Similarly, as he thought, he layered the floor with ice instantly, creating ripples as he skidded on it at tremendous speeds. With Neon Radiance King for emission, Sonic Radar for grasping the structure of everything he created in great detail, Frozen Blood to give a property of ice to everything he creates, and Moving Ripple to manipulate and control water and ice, he was able to create anything he wished using ice.

On top of that, using Moving Ripple, he was able to control the ice, changing its structure and other properties ice would have. On the other hand, the Sonic Radar allowed him to sense the properties of the material.

There was also the ability of Cloud Whale to generate air currents when it wasn't summoned. This, when combined with Sonic Radar and infused with Frozen Blood's effect, allowed him to blast gusts of cold air in his surroundings, like projections of his fists when he punched out.

Krune immediately began to train like crazy, watching his ability rapidly evolve as he derived a new level of power out of this, the true potential of all the abilities he had accumulated.

Dreams of the HeartOcean Turbulence!

The name automatically resounded in his mind as his heart continued to thump. Krune realized that in this state, he was able to fuse his abilities in any combination he wished. Using this, he was able to formulate a number of abilities that were derived from his base abilities.

While in the state, as he trained, he understood that his Cloud Whale was growing in size, based on the image it depicted in his mind. The Cloud Whale also depicted its image like the crimson rings of his Ocean Heart when he activated it.

When its size increased, it meant his stamina was also increasing accordingly. Krune realized that there was a limit as to how much stamina he could possess as a fleshly being. It was the same even for a Supreme Monster.

It was only because they had massive bodies and a tremendous amount of flesh and blood that they could store an enormous amount of energy within them. As for Krune, his body was insignificant in comparison.

With that, he could find that he was hitting the limits of his fleshly body. Beyond that, and the rest of the energy within the Tier 3 Development Spheres would simply be wasted. Fortunately, Krune had his Ocean Heart.

After activating all five crimson rings, its energy circulated through his body at greater reserves, absorbing the beneficial quality from the Tier 3 Development Spheres.

'It's changing.' Krune could instinctively feel the change as the Ocean Heart continued to absorb the excess effect of the Tier 3 Development Spheres the moment his physique hit its limit. Beyond this, it was no longer possible to strengthen his physique anymore.

He had attained the absolute limit of mortal flesh. Then again, there was still a tremendous reserve of the Tier 3 Development Spheres' effect available in his body. As their essence flowed through his blood, they were absorbed by the energy from Ocean Heart, just like how it absorbed the freezing effect in his Frozen Blood.

It was the trait of Ocean Heart. And now, the healing effect present in Ocean Heart was subtly changing, absorbing the essence of the Tier 3 Development Sphere. It already had the healing effect. And now, it was only changing a little to turn into something stronger.

Moreover, Krune could feel that the energy in each crimson ring was increasing little by little. The heart contained the strongest muscle in the body. And with the addition of Ocean Heart, it was even stronger.

So, even though Krune's body had reached its limit in development, his heart still had some ways to go before it reached its limit. Using this opportunity, it strengthened itself further.

Krune continued to train all his abilities like a madman as he threw attacks in every direction without thinking of the consequences. Gehen had hurriedly used his active ability to seal the training area so that Krune's attacks wouldn't reach the people beyond the palace.

Even he felt surprised by Krune's development speed as he could feel the other party's strength grow by leaps and bounds. 'His physique has already reached the peak level achievable by a mortal.'

He smacked his lips in admiration as Gehen watched with widened eyes at Krune's training.

Krune summoned attacks one after another while condensing an ice sword that he swung in a flurry while dancing around the entire training ground like a madman. He condensed more ice into the sword, making it tremendously heavy as he carried the weight, swinging it as his body screamed from the strain.

The healing effect of his Ocean Heart worked its magic at this moment, constantly healing him as he broke his muscles while it healed him back to an optimal state. Adding to that, the Tier 3 Development Sphere's essence seeped into his body, slightly strengthening him further, causing his body weight to increase by a small amount.

Krune hadn't even realized that he had attained a breakthrough to surpass the limit of his flesh, however insignificant. For the entire day, he continued to train and experiment with the effects the fusion of his abilities resulted in.

Based on what Gehen said, the training effects should last a day. But for Krune, it was expended well in advance. He was somewhat confused about how it was caused, wondering if him swallowing five Tier 3 Development Spheres instead of one had been the cause.

But upon activating his Ocean Heart once again and feeling the effect of the healing effect, he was unable to control himself from smiling. 'My Ocean Heart has absorbed the Development Sphere's effect. In the future, I can train and increase my strength even further through that.'

He was now able to experience the development effect along with the healing effect using his Ocean Heart. On top of that, Krune could feel that his body had mildly gained weight. Normally, it wouldn't have been possible for him to detect such a minute change.

But during the state of Ocean Turbulence, his Sonic Radar was able to relay this data based on the change in density in his body. After all, his size had experienced zero change during this. Through that, Krune was able to determine the weight difference.

'Is it possible to increase my weight further? Maybe that might be the way to grow even stronger,' Krune thought, smiling as he relaxed, feeling his body brimming with power.

"How was it?" Gehen asked as he approached Krune after taking down all the barriers. Currently, it was raining in the capital due to all the ice and cold air Krune had launched.

"Impressive." Krune laughed. "I think I got more than five years' worth of training out of it within the day."

'So, his abilities amplified the effect by creating a synergic reaction,' Gehen thought, nodding as he smiled. "You can go rest now. If there's anything else, you can ask me later."

"Sure." Krune nodded, condensing the Cloud Whale around him as he carried his backpack and flew out of the palace, landing at a discrete street as he deactivated it. He then mingled through the crowd, sightseeing the city until he was satisfied.

He then left the capital city, heading towards the other cities as he took in the sights filled with people, relishing the experience as he had spent way too much time alone. He didn't know what the Seamstress was doing with Solare.

They had parted ways already, going about with their respective needs with the promise of meeting each other once they were back in the God Realm. Since they were on neighboring continents, it was each to find each other if they searched with such an intention.

He immediately dropped his plan of searching for new passive abilities. It was no longer worth the effort since he had witnessed the potential of Frozen Blood and Moving Ripple. Thus, he decided to stick with them without any changes.

Moreover, he had invested too much in them and had already developed them significantly. There was also the fact that they had formed a synergic effect with his other abilities. Krune dared not say any other ability he might obtain might have this synergic effect.

So, instead of losing his trump card for an ability that would create him a weapon, it was better to stick to his current abilities. In the state of Ocean Turbulence, he was able to condense weapons of ice anyway.

In any case, it was better. Even when he became a cultivator, it would still serve its use. Krune was fine with that. Though, he wondered if it would become even stronger if he imbued the laws of wind and ice in them.

Krune spent the rest of his time training and visiting new places. He figured out the duration that he could sustain the activation of Ocean Turbulence. It ranged between two to three minutes.

The duration was less because he was consuming a tremendous amount of energy, expending all five crimson rings. But the power that resulted from those couple of minutes was enough time to fell any opponent he faced.

Krune continued to loiter around for the next few months until he could feel the arrival of a Checkpoint Turtle.
