Ash encountered the trial he least wanted to face—a maze.
The twelfth layer of the Silent Spiral was a giant maze. The walls connected heaven and earth, with no gaps to leap over, and the walls were one with the ground and ceiling. Even if you attacked just one point on the wall, the damage would be distributed throughout the entire spiral layer.
However, the most destructive Qikara stayed on the tenth layer, Ash excelled at cutting, Igula's imaginary enemies were intelligent beings, not walls, and Gwen was not only a Two-winged Mage but had also lost a lot of Technique Spirits due to the 'Star Cluster Concept' collapse a few days ago, so her combat power was almost negligible.
