"What a massive waste..." Nash sighed.

One had to know that the energy the Sun Star Void emitted was enough to sustain an entire sector territory.

Their number seemed large, but compared to a sector, they were at most a large civilization.

Yet with just a few core arrays, the Sun Star Void was about to hit the limit.

He estimated that adding two to three more core arrays would equalize its energy emission.

"Fortunately, there’s still the profit of soul points."

While he would be spending void energy to power the universal runic system, he could earn soul points in return.

With a little processing, it might be better to use them as currency.

After all, soul energy could not only replenish energy but also the power of elements and souls.

It might even be their foundation, the thing they needed to conquer the market.

Telling Julius not to worry about the energy crisis, Nash continued to have fun with Camilla and Elizabeth.

Since he could do nothing about it, he’d just put it in the back of his mind.

---

A week later, having had enough fun, they returned to their residence.

With a year left before they began to interact with the outside world, they wanted to train as much as possible.

After helping Camilla and Elizabeth, Nash went to his quarters to start his soul sublimation training.

Soul sublimation is the process of preparing the soul to receive the power of law.

If soul transformation was the process of turning a soul seed into a tree, then soul sublimation was turning the tree into paper.

Taking the Tier 5 Level 8 potency soul sublimation potion, Nash was able to absorb it within just a day.

However, instead of being happy, Nash couldn’t help but sigh.

"It just increased by 500%."

Previously, each sublimation potion increased his soul transformation rate by about 5,000%.

Now, after advancing to the soul sublimation stage, it became less than ten times!

"Should I take the Level 9 potency potion?"

With his soul advancing to the sublimation state, he should be able to absorb more of a Level 9 potency potion.

Acting on his idea, he first helped Camilla and Elizabeth with their blood transfusions, then went back to his room to take the potion.

Taking longer to absorb the potion, days began to pass.

---

Three days later, looking at his runic panel, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

[Nash Navre: Tier 5 Void Marshal

Primal Void: 4,735%

Soul Sublimation: 8,020%

Void Amplification: 4.73 trillion

Soul Amplification: 271.8 trillion

Physique: 4,730x

Void Affinity: SS Lvl (1,618)

Soul Materialization: SS Lvl

Elemental Core: 1,618

Sublimated Element: 650]

"I could already absorb 15% of a Level 9 potency potion?" Nash thought excitedly.

One had to know that a Level 9 potency potion had a hundred times the potency compared to its last level.

Just being able to absorb 15% meant his progress could skyrocket fifteen times!

Of course, the cost was also not a joke.

A Level 9 Tier 5 potency potion already had the same cost as the rarest Tier 8 and some common Tier 9 potions.

Even then, looking at his soul amplification doubling in three days, Nash couldn’t hold his excitement.

No wonder Camilla and Elizabeth’s progress was so dazzling.

At this moment, Camilla and Elizabeth had already completed their soul sublimation state.

They only needed to sublimate each element to advance to the Tier 6 realm.

With their bloodlines and massive resources, they could sublimate an element after a day or two.

They also felt no burden from the rapid elemental core sublimation, as their physique was already that of a peak Tier 6 powerhouse.

As for Nash, even with various resources, the maximum he could sublimate an element without being affected was every three days.

Calming down, he began to calculate how much potion he needed to reach a 1,000,000% sublimation rate.

"I need at least 1,200 Level 5 sublimation potions..." Nash muttered excitedly.

A sublimation potion only costs about 4.5 billion void source crystals.

Even if their daily output were only 100 billion, it wouldn’t take two months to collect the money he needed!

"Being a leader indeed has some perks."

While it might look expensive, compared to the significance it can bring, it’s nothing!

As long as he advanced, the Neon Star Alliance would have more confidence; they could also have more quota for the runic system as a bonus.

Thus, even if Nash wasted much of the Level 9 potency potion, it was nothing.

As long as he advanced as fast as possible, what’s a few losses?

"Haha, it seems advancing to the Tier 6 realm will not take long."

With an absorption rate of one bottle every three days, it would only take him ten years to perfect his soul.

Furthermore, this was not the limit.

As his physique continued to strengthen, his absorption rate should continue to increase.

His soul might reach a 1,000,000% sublimation rate before he sublimates all his elemental cores.

Taking a deep breath, Nash began to calm down.

Although fast, he was still behind Camilla and Elizabeth.

Before getting ahead of himself, he had better begin deducing the blueprint and runic array engraving for a Tier 6 dark technological battleship.

In the far future, they could no longer rely on the Sun Star Void to generate money.

Instead, Nash might even have to scale it up to cope with the demands of the grand array and the runic systems.

He also had to study soul knowledge.

Nash was not satisfied with a mere sublimation of soul; if his void energy could return to its primordial form, why couldn’t his soul?

Thinking of all this, Nash stood up and began another round of blood transfusions for Camilla and Elizabeth.

After he drank another potion, he entered a soul enlightenment state to deduce the blueprint for the battleship and began reading about theories on souls.

With his schedule filled to the brim, a year quickly passed.

With the ten-year hibernation of the Neon Star Alliance coming to an end, preparations began to fill every corner of the Sun Star Void Area.
