Xiang Yu summoned his Abyssal Void Flame, carefully examining it for changes after its advancement to fifth grade. At first glance, not much seemed different, except for one striking detail—the tiny white sparks that used to dance within the dark flame had completely vanished. Now, only absolute darkness remained, swirling ominously above his palm. Despite the flame's advancement, he was still uncertain about how to properly harness its power.
A sudden inspiration struck him. Focusing his concentration intensely on the flame, Xiang Yu felt his consciousness instantly transfer into the void dimension within. The familiar fluffy creature still floated there, wrapped in its dark, smoke-like fur—but just like before, it remained unresponsive to his presence. He had hoped the upgrade might have awakened the mysterious entity, but that wasn't the case. Xiang Yu wasn't particularly troubled by this; he'd unravel the flame's secrets eventually, as he did with all things.
