While Primo and others continued on the 4th floor, Athan was refining the Lotus he got using soul energy.
Refining as in, he was making it his own by infusing his soul energy in it. He finished this process in ten minutes before absorbing the entire Lotus and all of its power.
Athan suddenly stopped walking and closed his eyes. Primo and others also stopped after seeing that and stood protectively around Athan.
"It seems that your master is absorbing the Lotus's powers," Nina said with a smile, "but the real benefit is that profound formation's understanding. Let's see if he can fully comprehend it before it disappears."
Athan felt a burst of soul essence going into his soul as his soul got a small boost in overall power.
Along with that, Athan received an opportunity to understand a profound formation.
It was a formation that could be carved in the air or anything using soul energy and Outrious Energy.
Lotus Bomb Formation.
Athan's comprehension was high, and without suffering any blocks, he comprehended this profound formation in twenty minutes.
After opening his eyes, Athan pointed his finger in the air and started carving formation using Outrious Energy and soul energy.
"You succeeded?" Nina asked in a surprised tone.
"Let's see how powerful it is," Athan said as he finished carving the formation that looked exactly like the Lotus he refined.
A dreamy lotus floated in the air, which he created by consuming 50% of soul energy and 5,000 Outrious energy.
"Let's go; I can only hold it for ten minutes since I didn't carve this formation on any plate," Athan said as he started moving forward with the ten-meter big giant LotusLotus behind him.
The number of Anarchy symbols around the Lotus was 9,298, which indicated that this Lotus bomb was quite powerful.
'I need to find a way to carve this formation with a mixture of my Abyssal Blood Crystal's energy,' Athan thought while walking, 'Also, I can add the profound formation of this Lotus in my explosive techniques to make them more powerful.'
Athan was a bit excited because if he could get more mysterious things like that Lotus, and other types of things like the formation he comprehended, then he could make his Void Art techniques more powerful by improving them.
His soul also got a bit powerful after absorbing the soul essence; the capacity of his soul energy, Abyssal Darkness, and Void pulse increased by 1300 each.
After two minutes of traveling, they saw a rotten Alligator flying towards them.
It had holes in his body and was rotting, but its aura was very powerful, with 21,405 Anarchy symbols around them.
Athan threw the Lotus Bomb towards the Alligator as a loud blast occurred.
*BOOOM...*
A pushing field occurred that actually pushed Alligator to the side after the blast even though the Alligator didn't suffer much damage.
That was another effect of Lotus Bomb, Pushing Field.
Afterward, Taezin plucked a hair from its body, which started glowing before Taezin threw it towards the Alligator, "Stinky Alligator, I am going to wash you to death."
A powerful stream of destructive water shot towards the Alligator from Taezin's hair. A total of 29,540 Anarchy symbols were around Taezin when he attacked.

*SHROOOOOOOOOO....*
The Alligator was shredded to pieces because of the destructive stream flow of water that shot towards the Alligator before it turned into motes.
"Your power is really versatile, Taezin," Athan said, "you already displayed Lightning, Earth, Fire, Wood, Metal, and now Water as well."
"Oo...Oo...that's my power, Myriad Heavenly Ways," Taezin said with a grin, "I can control those six elements to the highest level and combine them to make other elemental powers as well. I can also make clones of myself, hehe, and most importantly, my physical strength is one of the highest among other Voidlings. Last time, I only lost against Monarch Booster and Ant King regarding physical strength."
"And don't forget your Heavenly Force," Primo snorted, "he can use that force to stop all of your physical moments for a short time."
"Humph, I will not use that," Taezin snorted, "I can beat others even if I don't stop their movements."
"Arrogant monkey," Pixilot pouted, "I can beat you, don't forget that."
"Tsk," Taezin clicked his tongue with a foul expression as he had indeed suffered a loss under Pixilot and that too without a chance to fight back.
...
Afterward, Athan and others continued as they reached the Ascension platform of the 4th floor as well.
Athan encountered one more natural treasure on the way, but it was about increasing his physical strength this time. After refining the Vitality Bamboo with his blood, he absorbed it and significantly increased his fundamental physical strength.
His physical strength directly reached the same level as a Mystic Lord's physical strength.
However, there was still 50% or so amount of Vitality Bamboo's power dormant in his body since his body had reached the limit. Now Athan will have to break his body's limit to continue to make it strong, which he would do after leaving this Labyrinth.
After he absorbed the Vitality Bamboo's power, the Unbound Spectrum Vitality Heart also stopped its process of making Athan's body fundamentally stronger since it had reached the limit.
However, that heart remained a powerful organ in his body as it increased the recovery of his physical and soul energy.
This heart was now Athan's, and it would grow to be more powerful than its previous owner.
"Let's see what kind of test we get on this 4th floor," Nina said with a smile.
Athan nodded as he infused his soul energy in the Altar.
After a second, a faint image of a vast sea appeared with lightning crackling on and inside the sea.
"Ohh, It's the Ocean of Lightning test," Nina said before she smiled.
"What do I have to do?" Athan asked.
As Athan's Labyrinth guide, Nina explained the test to Athan, which was really simple.
"Basically, you will have to dive into that ocean and touch the seabed of this ocean. There will be monsters on the way to block your path, but you must not let them block your path because this is a time-limited test. You will only have ten minutes to reach the bottom," Nina said with a smile.
"Alright, let's do it."
