Cyrus looked at the palm size golden flag in his hand, which was filled with strange symbols, with a content look in his exhausted eyes.
"I still can only perform the Yin Yang Rune Creation one time with all my Qi to make a Silver Grade Array Formation Flag. How pathetic…" He muttered in self-mockery.
But he didn't have time to lament at his meager power as he vanished with the flag again, and after a short time, he reappeared without the flag.
Without wasting more time, Cyrus then headed back to the mask and started to refine the reaming destruction energy because he needed it empty today, despite his exhausted state.
He put it on his face, and the next moment, the gray mist suddenly released from his hand and slowly swirled between his palms as a black sheen was keeping that gray mist contained.
Then Cyrus slowly closed his palms, and that glob started to compress with his palm movements until it turned into a small marble between his palms.
'Yin Yang Alchemy Creation, Pill Condensing!'
The moment he activated the technique, the black sheen around the compressed marble churned violently before the mist suddenly started to solidify.
Within a few seconds, another gray pill was condensed, and Cyrus put it within the pile and started to make another in the same way.
Two hours later, Cyrus received an expected notification.

On the fourth floor, Hilda watched the surrounding crowd of puppets with '10' over their forehead vanishing while she looked completely haggard.
But her eyes were filled with unwillingness and shame because she had just forfeited!
The system voice rang at this moment,
"[Congratulations, Temple Devotee Hilda, you have completed the Four Floor Trial: The Path of Origin Lust Sword (2)!]
"[Finale Assessment: You had passed the First and Second rounds while forfeiting the Third!]
"[You have met the requirement to become the Origin Lust Sword Temple Priest!]
"[Your Temple Status has been updated!]
"[You have received an extra reward: The Next Two Strike of Hymn of Awakening!]"
Hilda was surprised when she heard the last announcement, and just as the announcement was made, she saw Cyrus's figures, just like in the third trial, starting to materialize.
But this time, it was made with corporeal red, and the other was made with corporeal green color. This time, they didn't perform those two sword strikes over each other, but instead, they directly slashed their swords at two different angles at Hilda!
She was completely caught off guard, and she wasn't able to react when those two deadly swords strike landed on her, and she felt she was going to die.
Two musical notes rang in the air at this moment, and Hilda remained completely fine to be able to hear them. Those two figurines have now vanished, but the memories of those two sword strikes were fully embedded into Hilda's mind.
With shimmering eyes, she opened her temple status,
______

[NOTE: Please focus on rewards to see the pending rewards.]
______
Hilda was even more surprised to see the new Temple Authority added to her status, which was completely unexpected. Now she felt like she was like a big shot of the Temple.
Although those two authorities weren't much interested in her since she only had Rita as her friend and she was too occupied with having disciples, she was still glad about getting this authority.
Furthermore, the priest praying room was the biggest boon. Just the 10% increase in her cultivation speed would be enough to make her progress even more astronomical combined with her talent.
The system voice rang again at this moment,
"[You have cleared the Fourth Floor Trial!]
"[Congratulation for clearing all the available trials of the Bronze Rank Origin Lust Sword Temple!]
"[Currently, there are no more trials available, but you will be informed when they will. In the meanwhile, please continue to strive hard for the Origin Lust Sword Dimension. Your devotion will always be rewarded!]
"[Temple Priest Hilda, you may leave the fourth floor now!]"
Hilda bowed her head and uttered, "Thank you, exalted Origin Protector. I will not disappoint you!"
Since the system was quite proactive in the temple, it needed some sort of identity so the Temple Members won't start thinking anything funny about it.
So, Cyrus decided to give the System the title of Origin Protector and told the girls to be respectful towards it. He naturally didn't care about system opinion, and he was quite sure it won't have any like always.
Hilda then vanished from the trial floor and reappeared in a luxurious grand hall that was not even qualified to be called a room. Instead, it looked like a throne hall of some palace because there was a beautiful throne at the end of this hall embedded with gems which were then shaped into a sword.
The moment Hilda breathed the air, she felt the Qi starting to recover at a terrifying rate while her fatigue was also mending, and even her mind became clearer, and she could feel the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul starting to lose.
"Not bad, this place. You might be able to break through ahead of time here." Cyrus's praiseful voice rang at this moment, making Hilda surprised.
When she followed his voice, she found him sitting over that throne and smiling at her. An enthralling smile appeared on Hilda's cold face, which was filled with tenderness as she quickly made her way toward him and threw herself in his arms without caring about anything else.
"Thank you for giving me so much." She muttered while she enjoyed being in his embraced and snuggled.
Cyrus stroked her somewhat disheveled hair and smilingly said, "I just gave you the opportunity, and you'd earn it yourself. There's no need to belittle yourself."
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm Cyrus was naturally watching everything from start to finish after he was alerted by the system. Especially those sword strikes of the Hymn of Awakening, which were also performed at a hundred percent, and Cyrus finally noticed something this time!
Before, when Cyrus saw the first strike, which was performed by the blue figure, he completely ignored the color as he thought it was just random.
However, today when he saw those two other unique color figures, he no longer thinks like that. Because those colors weren't random, then there was a pattern, and he could only think of one closest thing to solve that pattern.
The colors actually represent an extremely ancient method, Element Splitting!
