The whale moved swiftly and entered that first rocky planet nearby. It was a modest place, with only a few simple beasts whose cultivation was far below the standard of the Pristine planet. They didn’t detect any civilization, imminent danger, or even anything that could potentially be useful there.
Nevertheless, they located an isolated mountain and entered it. Then they focused, and with a simple thought, a green window materialized before them, displaying the rewards.
[Main Reward: Elental Condensation Cultivation achieved.]
[Extra Reward 01: 50 upgrade points.]
[Performance Level: 100/100]
[Special reward for perfect performance: 01 free level two upgrade.]
’Special reward?’ Bruno expressed his surprise. ’It’s the first ti a specific reward for performance isn’t ntioned. Luckily, maximum performance grants us sothing.’
’When we finally hit the max, we get only the minimum. The system definitely planned that,’ Alm grumbled coldly. ’Let’s focus on what really matters.’
The main quest summary now didn’t seem so relevant, and Alm and Bruno weren’t willing to waste ti. With a thought, several notifications appeared.
[System Improvents unlocked!]
[Optional Quests have been unlocked. They will arise at the right mont, and once accepted, must be completed at any cost. Otherwise, severe punishnts may be applied by the system.]
Alm and Bruno remained silent; this improvent was a reward from the side quest they completed.
’They will arise at the right mont? So, now, when the Heaven’s Will wants sothing from us, it will tell us more directly. At least we won’t have to co up with random theories,’ Bruno comnted nonchalantly.
A new notification appeared:
[Extra Reward 02: Celestial miracles’ options nu unlocked!]
This was the reward from the main mission and the reason why Alm and Bruno were standing still, wasting ti reading everything. This should be the opportunity they couldn’t waste; a miracle was exactly what they needed. They imdiately accepted the option to open the new nu.
[Miracles available: 03]
[Celestial Points for use: 0]
[Note: With each use of a miracle, the points for that miracle multiply by 3]
[Natural Life Miracle] [10 Celestial Points]
[Miracle of physical, ntal, and spiritual rebirth] [10 Celestial Points]
[Space-ti Miracle] [10 Celestial Points]
Alm and Bruno looked at the options intrigued and slightly excited, but soon realized they didn’t have any points. It was frustrating, like seeing an unreachable treasure. With irritation, they thought about the upgrade shops, and a new screen appeared.
[Upgrade Points available: 100]
[First-level Options: 05]
[Second-level Options: 01]
[Third-level Options: 04]
[Fourth-level Options: 01]
There were fifty points from the side quest and another fifty from the main quest. The fourth-level and second-level options didn’t even need to be considered. The fourth-level one was the Yin and Yang Supre Collector Cultivation Technique. They had already acquired level three before, but so far, they hadn’t been able to advance in it.
As for the second-level one, it was the only thing they bought from the first level before; the Alchemist God’s Dao. They didn’t intend to purchase either of them now, as they must cost a fortune; plus, they would get the Alchemist God’s Dao for free as a reward. Almin was an unprecedentedly lucky person; they also received the first level for free. They didn’t waste ti and opened the third-level options.
[Level 3] [Supre Physical Cultivation Technique: FiendGod’s Hegemony] [20 Upgrade Points]
[Level 3] [Transcendent ntal Cultivation Technique: Nine God-Slaying Lotus] [50 Upgrade Points]
[Level 3] [God Forger’s Dao] [20 Upgrade Points]
[Level 3] [Devouring God’s Spatial Technique] [20 Upgrade Points]
’Hmm... The second-level physical cultivation was completed, so it being cheap makes sense. But the Devouring God’s Spatial Technique and the God Forger’s Dao are on the sa level. We advanced to level two without the system’s help, so our understanding and assimilation of level two were smooth and quick. We grasped their entire second level without even realizing it,’ Bruno analyzed calmly. Soon, the green first-level screen was opened.
[God of Thieves’ Dao] [10 Upgrade Points]
[God of Formation’s Dao] [20 Upgrade Points]
[Beast Tar God’s Dao] [20 Upgrade Points]
[Primordial Spiritual Cultivation Technique: Ancestral Sacred Spirit] [20 Upgrade Points]
[God Gaia’s Dao] [40 Upgrade Points]
Alm and Bruno were stunned to see the last and new option. ’God Gaia’s Dao? How could Gaia create a dao and beco a god? It can’t even cultivate; this is unexpected...’
Bruno expressed his surprise, but soon stopped, rembering sothing important. In the last main mission, the system explained that the queen was sealing various figures with cultivation in the Immortal Realm. Her goal was to give birth to unique and unexpected things. It was clear that this could or could not work; not even the queen could guarantee the result. Probably, it was also impossible to predict what would erge.
’In that universe, a soul gem that can create an entire life erged; that’s already challenging enough. A primordial core, which already possesses intelligence, undergoing a strange mutation? It’s not surprising. Besides, anything strange can arise; we can’t doubt anything in the future,’ Alm comnted indifferently.
The two pondered deeply for a few minutes. They couldn’t get a clear view of what they needed to do. As they reflected, another green screen appeared, overlaying the others.
[Optional Quest Available: 01]
[Seize the queen’s first planet for yourself.]
[Reward 01: 10 Celestial Points]
[Reward 02: 20 Upgrade Points]
[Accept?] [Yes / No]
’Taking the planet?’ Bruno spoke, intrigued. ’If all forms of life and celestial laws in this universe are under the queen’s dominion, obviously the primordial cores of all planets that lack any autonomy or significant intelligence are dominated by her as well.’
’This mission arises right after the appearance of God Gaia’s Dao; it seems like an obvious trap. We wouldn’t waste points on sothing random; Gaia creating a Dao is normally impossible, and we have no idea what it’s Dao does,’ Alm quickly comnted.
Bruno nodded with a sigh. ’Well, then that was a hint of what the Dao can do. Maybe this will be useful to us. After all, we wanted to take over the queen’s domains. We got Gaia’s blessing in the underworld, we can easily contact another primordial core with this. I think it’s worth the risk; we don’t have all the ti in the world.’
The two sighed together. They had to complete this mission; the 10 celestial points were their salvation. The Space-Ti Miracle would surely get them where they wanted.
The three miracles were basic things that all cultivators knew celestial laws could do: give life to nature, resurrect people, and finally, ignore or distort space-ti. The tribulations do exactly that; no matter where the cultivator is, they will be hit.
’We’ve earned quite a few points this ti, and now we can also earn with the optional quests. Let’s just do it,’ Alm said without hesitation.
They promptly accepted the optional quest. Then, they opened the upgrade shop and selected everything without much thought.
