To have everything in harmony was the first hurdle.
Lith passed through it with flying colors.
As for the next step, Lith took a deep breath.
"Come."
The one word made his heart thump explosively.
The surroundings changed and he found himself in a world of black and gray.
'The Astral Realm?'
There seemed to be a weird connection between Lith and the Astral Realm.
Maybe as he ascended further, he would understand the mysteries of it.
For now, he focused on the tribulation that was to come.
The wind howled and from afar, Lith could see some figures charging towards him.
The ground trembled as they neared and in no time, the tremors were strong enough to topple anyone down.
Lith extended his wings out and flew in the air.
"Kawwww—!"
Black ravens, rather, astral monsters, breezed past Lith as he flew a meter above the ground.
It was sudden and close. If they were to hit, the damage would not be less.
