This was also an ascension of the Purification Rule, an absolute counter to the Abyss.
Any Abyssal Energy that came close would be automatically dissolved.
'I've been able to purify the Abyss for a long time. I wonder if I can...?'
Suddenly, Ian thought of his Meditation Method, the Starry Sky Festival.
During his first Meditation, his spirit had merged with the Void, allowing the Abyssal Soul Contract to resonate and connect with a sliver of the Abyss's Will.
And so began the long process of drawing in and purifying that Will.
'Now... I can do more, and do it better.'
With a flicker of his thought, Ian slowly activated the Starry Sky Festival.
After a moment, the dormant Abyssal Soul Contract trembled slightly.
Then, a familiar, faint "connection" spread out from the Soul Contract, as if trying to link with some distant, lofty existence.
At the same time, he "saw" the Will of the Abyss being drawn in—black, viscous, and filled with Chaos and madness.
