Death… And Me

Chapter 2034 I Have Some

At the moment, the Soul Gem System has three types of upgrades related to cultivation. The first one was obviously the [Energy Absorption Upgrade], which was already at level 5 and increased the rate of absorption by 25%.

The second one was related to the twinsʼ Ying Yang Starlight Body Cultivation Technique, [Starlight Energy Absorption]. However, this one was still at level 1. The reason for that was that the twins never saw a need to upgrade this one. Their Starlight Cultivation was able to keep up with the Divine Energy cultivation. If anything, they usually reached the limit of the Starlight Body Cultivation before they could break through to the next level. 

Letʼs not forget that there was a Divine Energy Cultivation Realm requirement for each Grade of the Starlight Body. The twins were already in the Fourth Grade, and they could only break through into the Fifth Grade when they reached the Space Bending Realm. This requirement was only accomplished now. But then again, they still havenʼt found the Iridescent Tear, which was the second requirement. Without it, breaking through into the Fifth Grade was impossible.

Now, they also had the [Divine Origin Energy Conversion]. The very first level cost 50000 Destiny Points, but the rate of conversion was 10% for each level. Considering their [Divine Energy Absorption] was already 25% faster, it goes without saying that upgrading the [Divine Origin Energy Conversion] was the best choice.

”Sister Orb, how many Destiny Points do we have at the moment?”

If Sister Orb wasnʼt really an Orb, she would be smiling ear to ear after hearing that question. [You guys will definitely be surprised. After the last upgrades, you were left with 33215 Destiny Points. But since then, you have accumulated another 204569 points. Now you have 237,784 points available.]

Rean and Roan were taken aback. That was truly a huge amount. ”How did we get so much?!” It was not like they didnʼt get a huge amount before, but the time spent to get these 200k was definitely very short.

[Simple, it was the Reincarnation Path Soul Guidance Competition,] Sister Orb explained. [That directly affects who will hold the Underworld Relic for the next hundreds of years. As mentioned before, that is pretty much a treasure that ensures the safety of the Underworld Powers. The clan that holds it will obviously receive a huge boost of strength during that period. It is not wrong to say that your victory in that competition directly affected the Underworld as a whole. That said, you got a huge amount of Destiny Points from the changes in destiny you caused to the Light Devil Clan.]

The twinsʼ group was obviously happy to hear that. Of course, they also knew that the Destiny Perception of the Soul Gem System was still at level 3, which only calculated the chances within a range of four million kilometers. But since that chance was mainly located inside the Light Devil Clan itself due to the relic, they got most of the benefit it caused during that period of time. If they had stayed in the Light Devil Clan for the next few hundred years, they probably would get even more points.

Celis couldnʼt hold back anymore and quickly urged the twins. ”Quick, quick! Buy the Divine Origin Energy Conversion Upgrade! Nothing is more important than our strength!” Sure enough, the cultivation maniac could only think about that.

However, the twins were not in a hurry. After all, the Divine Origin Energy Conversion wasnʼt the only upgrade that appeared in the system after their breakthrough. There was a new item on the list as well. Naturally, they quickly changed their attention to that new item. As soon as their eyes fell on the new upgrade, their hearts skipped a bit.

[All Energies and Conversion Upgrades Fusion - 1000000 Destiny Points]

”This...” Rean quickly looked at Sister Orb.

[Hehe! Thatʼs exactly what you are thinking. This upgrade will fuse the Divine Origin Energy Conversion, Energy Absorption, and Starlight Energy Absorption into one single upgrade. Instead of having to spend Destiny Points on those three skills separately, buying this skill will erase those three upgrades and create a single Universal Upgrade that will work on all three fronts simultaneously. Not only that, it will be 10% extra performance for each level once it is created.]

Without a doubt, this upgrade was ridiculously good! However... ”One Million Destiny Points...” They could spend a ʼsmallʼ amount to get the Origin Energy Conversion alone, or they could save points and buy this thing in the future. Still, one million Destiny Points would definitely take a very long time to accumulate. Especially since they are in a place where they canʼt cause many Destiny Deviations. They had to think whether it was worth the wait or not.

Even Celis felt conflicted. He truly wanted the buy the Conversion Upgrade straight away. But if you think about the Long Term advantages, the Upgrade Fusion was much better. Itʼs just that this Long Term advantage might really take a very, very long time to be achieved. ”Sigh... letʼs wait.”

Rean, Roan, and Kentucky looked at Celis. He was the one with the highest contribution to their shared cultivation, so his opinion weighed more than theirs. ”Are you sure, Celis? We probably can buy two or maybe three levels of the Conversion Upgrade straight away.”

”I know,” Celis agreed with them. ”But Starlight Energy is something that will help you get stronger as well. I know you have been neglecting it so far since it has no use for Kentucky and me. But then again, your lives are just as important. If we can get more advantages while having a single upgrade, I believe it is better to wait. Besides, it is not like we canʼt cultivate without the upgrades. It will just be slower for the time being.”

Seeing that Celis made that decision, the twins decided to ignore the Divine Origin Energy Conversion Upgrade and forget it existed. ”Alright, we will do as you say.”

Other than these two upgrades, there was nothing new in the Reward List, so the twins took their hands away from the Soul Gem Orb.

A moment later, Rean, Roan, Luan, and Kentucky reappeared in the Swamp, where Kentucky waited for them. 

”Talking about Starlight Body Cultivation, we still have no news about the Iridescent Tear,” Luan suddenly mentioned. He also cultivated the same technique, so it was something that interested him even though he didnʼt have a use for it at the moment.

Rean shrugged his shoulder. ”While we were in the Light Devil Clan, we tried to use their influence to look for this item. Unfortunately, none of them knew anything. It seems to truly be a very rare item.”

”Have you asked Luman about it?” Luan asked back in response.

Rean shook his head. If there were no news of it after using one of the top powers of the Underworld, how could Luman know something after being locked here for so long? The idea to ask didnʼt even pass through the twinsʼ minds.

A few days later, after the twins returned to the settlement and went to visit Luman... ”Uh? Iridescent Tear? Sure, I have some on me if you want.”

The twins were speechless. Was it really okay for such a coincidence to happen? But then again, a skill of the Soul Gem System quickly appeared in their minds, the Destiny Attraction Ability. Perhaps, it wasnʼt only related to the world around them but their cultivations as well.
