"So we only need to infuse soul energy and spirit force?" Erix felt strange at the conditions. "I was expecting something more complicated, but this is simple."
"Good for us," Rin grinned. "Let's begin it right away."
"I'll call others so they can provide Spirit force while we infuse soul energy," Isabella said.
"Yep, let's begin it right away," Lilith nodded while her eyes faintly shone. "It seems that we just need to release our spirit force and soul energy in the atmosphere of the island, and its core will automatically self-infuse them."
"Let's call some Empyrean-order powerhouses who have their souls awakened from clans so we can speed up," Kenshin said.
"I'll send an announcement to all Tier-1 U-card holders," Isabella nodded and sent an announcement via her U-card to the top rankers and powerhouses of clans.
Meanwhile, Erix and others released their soul energy for Island to infuse and entered meditation to recover without wasting time.
The top 20 were already on the Blessed Island as they were practically living here to progress faster. Hearing the announcement, they begin releasing their spirit force.
All residents of the Blessed Island who released their spirit force got a notification from the Blessed Island about the progress as well, making it easier for everyone.
"So this island is going to upgrade?" Amir was surprised and wondered, "Don't tell me it's going to become even bigger?"
"It's going to bring more benefits, that's for sure," Koshal wryly smiled.
"It's been 25 days since that meeting," James said with some doubt, "Is that Blue Maw Pirate Kingdom arriving here or not?"
"I don't care about it," Gabriel said with a light laugh. "It's a better idea to remain in this single entity Unfettered Kingdom. What do you say, Yelwon?"
"Focus on work," Yelwon plainly said. "If you emptied your spirit force, start recovering and stop talking."
Every top powerhouse was at different locations on the island, and they talked with each other via spiritual chat, but only for a bit before they focused on finishing the task.
More people started arriving on the Island and joined in finishing the task. Empyrean-order powerhouses who had their souls awakened also started arriving one by one and joined in completing the task.
Half an hour later, Lily also arrived from her investigation.
Appearing like a mist and materializing to her physical appearance beside Lilith, she said spiritually to Lilith, Erix, Rin, Isabella, Aria, Sameira, and Kenshin.
'It's as we predicted. Some clans want to use crooked methods to get stronger, and the Black Swan guild leader's father is the one gathering them.'
'That bastard never learns,' Kenshin internally grunted. 'Erix, the trash has gathered into a pile. All we need is to clear it.'
'I already know about their hideout and identities,' Lily sneered. 'We can leisurely go there after upgrading the Island.'
'Good work as always, Lily,' Rin chuckled.
'Come, join us now that your work is done,' Lilith said.
'Yes.'
…
After four hours, 100 million spirit force's target was met due to many people pouring their spirit force.
And due to the help of Empyrean order powerhouses of various clans who had awakened the soul, the 10 million soul energy target was also met after two more hours.
[Blessed Island upgrade initiating.]
"Let's see how it goes," Erix grinned, thrilled. The others were also eager to know what kind of upgrade would happen.
Since Erix, Rin, Aria, Isabella, Sameira, and Kenshin broke out of Mystic Root's influence and gained 5000 Magic Essence in exchange for their X-rank class sources' removal, they had a lot of Soul energy and they contributed the highest alongside Lilith and Lily.
After all, everyone spent all 5000 magic essence to boost their soul stat and spirit stat as that was the best investment option!
Lilith told them that a higher soul was absolutely necessary to comprehend more advanced powers and progress in higher realms of their existing powers.
As such, Erix and others were at the absolute peak of the Royal-order lifeform rank at the moment.
Each of them had reached 5000 foundational stats in Strength, Agility, Stamina, Health, Spirit, Soul, and Magic.
Lily and Maleina were already at the peak of Royal-order half a month ago in the Abyss as she had broken out of Mystic Root's influence a month ago with Lilith's guidance, so they also had 5000 in Soul stat, hence a 50,000 pool of soul energy.
Erix and Rin still had around five-six hundred Magic Essence left while Aria had 2.1k Magic Essence left. To use them, they needed to break through to Empyrean-order lifeform rank. As of now, their body and source have reached the limit of their lifeform.
However, they still lacked high-grade Prana stones and some amount of medium-grade Prana stones to complete the first stage of the breakthrough process. Lilith, Lily, and Maleina couldn't bring any common resources from Abyss to Earth and whatever they had in their storage ring was automatically removed as per Mystic Root's rules to prevent disruption in progress.
Alas…one more disruption was coming.
…
[Blessed Island Upgrade Process completed.]
After five minutes, everyone on the island got the notification.
[New Features: Antimatter Barriers, FTL Space Travel, Wormhole Jump, Cosmos Map.]
[New Functions: Growth Spurt, Specialized Area-1.]
[Antimatter Barrier: Uses 10,000 Prana per second to increase normal travel speed while allowing the island to pass through physical obstacles as long as the Antimatter Barrier is active.]
[FTL Space Travel: Consumes 100,000 Prana per second to travel faster than light in space. FTL limit: 350,000 Kilometers per second.]
[Wormhole Jump: Creates a wormhole for the Island to jump in and cross a distance of 20,000 to 50,000 lightyears. You can jump randomly or with coordinates to a specific point within 50,000 lightyears distance.]
[Cosmos Map: Shows cosmos map for ease of travel. It automatically expands as Blessed Islands travels or when data is inputted of an area to it. Current Map coverage: Milky Way Galaxy, Red Bean Galaxy.]
Everyone was reading the function, and Erix passed through the Cosmos Map, immediately opening it.
In the next second, a big hologram-type image appeared before Erix. It showed the Milky Way Galaxy with countless lights and looking white and faint blue. Beside it was a bean-shaped galaxy with colorful lights, but mostly red as it looked red-yellowish.
The Milky Way Galaxy had an indicator on it [Your location] and Erix zoomed in a few times to find the Planet Earth.
"This Map is crazy," Erix said with a laugh.
"Unfortunately, it's not a live map," Lilith wryly smiled. "If it was live, we could detect everything."
"Is a live map of a such scale even possible?" Sameira wryly asked.
"It is," Lilith grinned. "I've heard that higher upgrades of Blessed Island can activate live maps of a certain distance around it. Just like our spirit sense where we expand it to know every aura and thing within our range, the Blessed Island can also do it later."
"Yeah, that sounds possible," Sameira nodded as that made sense.
"This Growth Spurt is so nice," Aria said. "We can boost the growth period of resources and develop high-tier ingredients quickly."
"That's good indeed," Rin nodded.
[Growth Spurt: Provides necessary environment and conditions to resources in Specialized Areas to increase their growth. Once per month.]
[Specialized Area-1: You can assign 1-kilometer square land at any spot on the Blessed Island to make it a type of Specialized Area. Only one. Current options: Plant-based Specialized Area, Ore-based Specialized Area.]
"We don't need an Ore-based Specialized Area because I already have the best one," Erix said with a laugh. "And now that we have a plant-based specialized Area, we won't lack some limited resources to make important pills."
"But before that, let's first take care of the trash," Kenshin got up and cracked his fingers.
"True," Erix grinned. "This gives us a nice excuse to completely loot those clans. How dare they try to use crooked methods? Humph."
"They have secretly gathered around two-thousand people from various places that are not under us and held them captive," Lily coldly said. "I'm sure they are planning to make a magic formation using their clans' methods and use them as sacrifices."
"Send me the location," Erix blinked beside Lily with an instant teleport and held her hand. Lily immediately sent the location of the gathering to Erix.
"Amu, look over things here. We'll return shortly," Erix said before he teleported away with everyone.
…
Meanwhile, Mystic Root's medium on the Earth sensed something.
That medium was none other than Tower Master of Labyrinth Towers.
But he was not in full control as well. It was the Mystic System that was directly connected to Mystic Root.
Zerol looked at the warning of Mystic System and frowned. "They targeted this planet?"
Mystic Root influenced everything it took under itself, so when a foreign entity targeted something of it, mainly the worlds it was progressing, it would also interfere in its own way, but not in a way that would directly stop the invaders. It didn't consider feelings of others and only worked in its own ways and laws.
"It looks like things are going to get hectic," Zerol's eyes glinted. "And this will bring a good, desirable chance indeed."
And since Mystic Root detected this, the changes began on Earth...beginning with an announcement that went to everyone.
[Important Announcement:...]
