Appearing beside Gerude Eagle was another humanoid figure. It was a man, his body covered by spikes that were hazy, intent to make the onlooker lose his/her mind. The man had decisively left his position, disregarding his fight against the form of his Wisdom Parasite.

He looked at Gerude, making a salute. The moment Gerude nodded, the two of them sprang towards the form of Gerude's Wisdom Parasite. They began battling it, quickly destroying it in a matter of seconds.

Gerude and his Wisdom Parasite were evenly matched in experience fragments and the condensation of their forms. Adding the man into the fray, they managed to easily overwhelm it.

Gerude Eagle absorbed all the experience fragments from his Wisdom Parasite's form, grabbing hold of the crystal within. He placed the crystal in his mouth, holding it in place, and preventing it from fusing with the crystal in his body.

In the next moment, he and the man ganged up on the man's Wisdom Parasite, pummelling it within a couple of seconds. The man clutched the crystal in his mouth, similar to Gerude.

Gerude gazed below him, watching similar scenes happen everywhere. The humanoid figures ganged up on the serpentine figures in teams, annihilating them in order. But, it wasn't an overwhelming victory on their part, they faced some losses.

The battle in Gerude's case finished quickly because both were experts at Tier 4. In the Mental Realm, the quality and condensation of the experience fragments mattered the most. After all, when they made contact with their opponents, their experience fragments would intermix.

Depending on who had a higher quality, they would profit from obtaining a greater amount of experience fragments. Gerude's experience fragments were condensed to the extent he looked solid. His fighting techniques allowed him to fight his Wisdom Parasite while losing the least amount of experience fragments.

This allowed his helper to deal blows from behind and tide the way to his victory. But even then, his helper had lost half the experience fragments in his body from the first fight. Most of them splashed radially, heading towards the layer of Cogent Phrenics.

Even after absorbing all the experience fragments from his Wisdom Parasite, his form was a tad smaller than before; moreover, it was loosely condensed. As time passed, it began to recondense into a more solid form. But unfortunately, they didn't have the time to wait until it happened.

They began to help the other elites at Tier 4, quickly freeing them by destroying their serpentine foes. Once they were done, they continued forth to help the Tier 3 beings.

Gerude Eagle glanced above him, watching ten figures appear simultaneously, arriving on floors 111-120 of the Limitless Tower respectively. The moment they appeared, Gerude motioned with his hands. Immediately, all the freed humanoid figures convened around him.

They flew up and formed a layer of defence around the ten figures. The ten figures were different from the rest. Their forms were unique, layered by experience fragments resembling lava. From within their reddish forms, specks of starlight glowed, constantly revolving around them, forming various shapes that aligned to the Cogent Phrenics surrounding them.

The Cogent Phrenics had been grabbing and absorbing the experience fragments that flew their way—a resultant of the clash between the humanoid and the serpentine figures. Once the number of experience fragments dwindled, they began to move, rushing towards the humans.

Amidst the humans, the two forms in their centre were like beacons that attracted the Cogent Phrenics.

The Cogent Phrenics were like a tide that sought to wash over them with sheer power. Gerude looked at an Amplifier, nodding once. Upon his signal, the Amplifier swallowed the crystal in his mouth, watching it fuse with the crystal in him. At the next instant, he was back in reality.

The Amplifier had made a successful breakthrough; from today onwards, he was a developer. He wasn't concerned about this fact for the time being. He hurriedly kneeled, speaking with a tone of reverence, "Madam Marble, we have managed to recover about 83 percent of our troops from the Wisdom Parasites. We are currently engaging with the Cogent Phrenics. Sir Gerude is taking the lead and has set up defences around the 10 Shifters."

Minaela Marble's voice resounded in his cubicle, "Okay, good work out there."

On the ground floor, Minaela Marble gazed at the marble figure, "We have engaged with the Cogent Phrenics."

"Good," Psychic Ancestor Marble nodded.

In the Mental Realm, appearing a floor above their position were Tier 1 beings who barely managed to finish phase 1 of their breakthrough. One of them, a woman in her late twenties gazed at the serpentine figure before her, noticing another humanoid figure standing beside. That humanoid figure was getting overwhelmed by his serpentine figure.

Her Wisdom Parasite glanced at the humanoid figure and created some distance, unwilling to lose the experience fragments from an exchange. After all, its target was solely the lady in her late twenties.

The lady immediately helped the humanoid figure—a man seemingly in his thirties, his form possessing two drums in place of his ears—while barely managing to defend against the attacks of her Wisdom Parasite. After some time, they managed to emerge victoriously. At present, they only retained a sliver of their forms, with most of them lost from the exchange.

The lady glanced around, watching numerous experience fragments—those that had splashed out from her form—float away from her like droplets of water in space. She then glanced below her, feeling shocked.

She experienced a rush of emotions, her form unconsciously turning a tad sturdier as she motioned at the man beside her with a wave of her hand. The man followed her gaze and a moment later, his form became more solid. His expression surged with fighting spirit, the morale being as high as emotionally possible.

In the Mental Realm, the walls of the Limitless Tower was somewhat transparent. Despite it being more corporeal as compared to the other buildings in the Mental Realm, it was still see-through. The two people gazed below them, watching the magenta figure standing beside Minaela Marble.

'Ancestor Marble is personally here to oversee this operation!' This thought simultaneously resounded in their minds, causing their emotions to surge to the limit, also imbuing in them a sense of unprecedented confidence.

The three Ancestors were the pillars of Marble City, protectors that safeguarded it from foes ever since it existed. They were the pillars, both in the emotional and the literal sense. So, just their mere presence gave the duo surging morale.

They hurriedly ran through the battling crowd, dodging all attacks that their weak forms couldn't hope to recover from. All their way, they pointed at a certain location, even tanking some attacks to ensure their message was relayed across.

Their mission was to sacrifice their lives in the first place. Therefore, they were more willing to do so for a cause that would further increase their chances of victory. In their wake, all the humanoid figures glanced at the spot the two had pointed towards, noticing the presence of Psychic Ancestor Marble.

Gerude Eagle was no exception. As the two had flown up, they had received too many attacks. When they approached Gerude's location, their form no longer retained its cohesiveness, the experience fragments in them splashing out like water.

Thankfully, they got their message across. The moment Gerude Eagle noticed the presence of Psychic Ancestor Marble, his form condensed, pulling in all the experience fragments he had absorbed during his fights.

His form mutated, shrinking in size. When he had initially entered the Mental Realm, his humanoid form was like a porcupine, covered with spikes all over. On his back was a pair of wings, the wingtips also possessing a small claw. His nose was shaped like a beak while his eyes resembled that of an eagle's.

His form was around three metres in height. There were many tools, like blades, hooks, and claws all over his form, with most of them retained within their experience fragments, lacking any lethality.

During his fights, he had lost many parts of his form while absorbing numerous others from his foes. His form soon turned into a cluttered mess, unable to take an effective form in such a short duration. He needed a lot more time to condense it, time that he lacked at present.

But, a glance at Psychic Ancestor Marble's magenta figure was all it took to surge his fighting spirit. For a moment, his will seemed endless, prompting his mind into overdrive as it thought and ordered the experience fragment cluster.

Within a second, his form morphed into a sphere, with the higher levelled experience fragments taking up the centre—surrounding his crystal. They condensed, taking up a more solid form, tougher than before.

His height returned to two metres, humanoid but with two pair of arms. The wings on his back became thin and sharp, glistening with a deadly hue as all blade and sword related experience fragments took up shape within it.

Experience fragments related to sight-related Skills, sensory organs, etc. congregated in his face, bolstering his senses. Gerude Eagle looked at his form, clenching his fist once.

He gazed at the dozen Cogent Phrenics—equivalent to Tier 1 and Tier 2—surrounding him, rotating once. He unravelled his wings, cutting through their bodies easily. The severed portions that lacked a crystal core lost its form, breaking down and forming a cluster of experience fragments.

If they were left as is, they would slowly congregate around a wild crystal and form into a whole new Cogent Phrenics.

Gerude Eagle looked at the remaining halves of the Cogent Phrenics, watching his wings remain undamaged. He hadn't even lost a single experience fragment from the exchange. He spun a couple more times, fully severing them until their forms dissolved back into an experience fragment cluster.

'Thank you, Ancestor.' He bowed towards the magenta figure once and motioned with his hand. A humanoid figure behind him jumped into the experience fragment cluster, absorbing them all into his form.

He then retreated into the defensive line, hurrying towards the forms of the 10 Shifters in the centre.
