Inside the room.
Wang Tao was a bit excited. After all, in his previous life, it had taken him over a year to ascend to the sixth realm, and now it had only taken two months. Even someone who had weathered many storms like him couldn't remain completely calm.
Wang Tao took a deep breath to calm himself down and then began synthesizing the Crystal Cores. Moments later, all the Level 5 Crystal Cores he needed had become Epic Crystal Cores of 100% purity. He then placed them into his mouth one by one, allowing them to fuse.
After nearly all the Level 5 Basic Attribute Crystal Cores were integrated into his body, Wang Tao instantly felt that he could ascend to the sixth realm. There was no need for any operation or other thresholds—just a few hours of good sleep would suffice.
"Ascend!"
With the movement of his will, Wang Tao slowly fell asleep.
...
Four hours later, Wang Tao slowly woke up.
