+250 Reputation with Efretta
+50 bonus Reputation with Efretta
+1 Random Celestial Talent
-Bonus: Celestial Talent automatically raised to X-Rank.
-Talent unlocked: World Authority
-World Authority (Celestial): Consuming World Seeds no longer results in a merging of the two. Instead, Worlds remain separate and can coexist within your body. Additionally, the number of World Slots is increased with each upgrade. This Talent is locked until you enter the Ascension Realm.
William felt the World changing around him the moment the Superior Blessing Vein was absorbed, but he was too focused on the System notifications to pay much attention to the situation.
Not only had the System issued him much greater rewards than before, but it also automatically enhanced his new Celestial Talent to X-Rank. If he was still on Reius, William might have thought it was Christmas.
-Actually, Christmas is tomorrow. Today is December 24th, 2027.
World Authority seems strong, but I don't quite understand it yet. What's the benefit of having two separate Worlds instead of a singular larger one?
-There are many benefits, but the two main ones are quite simple. First, each World will develop individually and at the same pace, meaning having two Worlds will allow you to increase your strength twice as fast, three will be three times the growth speed, and so on.
William felt a mix of anger and worry as he realized the Heavens might not have been targeting him, but Efretta this whole time. He opened his Life Domain and teleported to many locations across the World, finally heaving a sigh of relief when he sensed her on the Dragon Continent.
His relief only lasted a split second when he found her unconscious body lying on the ground. Her Mana signature was all over the place, and he could sense with his Cultivation that she was about to fall from the Ascension Realm into Tribulation Transcendence.
He hurriedly sat down cross-legged and used his Cultivation Technique to draw in Mana and refine it to match hers, then sent it into her body. Alas, he wasn't skilled enough and her body wouldn't accept the Spirit Qi, he hopelessly watched as she dropped into the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, all the way to the first stage.
He waited next to Efretta for hours, silently blaming himself for not coming by sooner.
-This is the backlash of the Technique she used; it's not your fault. There's nothing you could have done, and I already expected her to do this. She's not dying, so don't feel guilty.
William nodded. Why did she do it?
-To block the senses of the Heavens that were watching. She's given you a chance to Ascend without being tracked by them, you should be thankful.
I am thankful. How long do I have?
-Three days. It seems like a long time, but the further ahead you get, the better your chances of survival. I've pointed out a few suitable Ascension Points, you just have to choose one and leave her behind.
What will happen to her? What if I leave her alone and she dies to something else?
-She won't, as long as you're fast enough. Efretta is your World now. If you consume it, the Heavens won't be able to peer into it anymore. They will lose all control, and you can keep her safe then.
Okay. But the Ascension Portals are under their control, right? How can I Ascend without them?
-Remember, the World automatically creates its own portals. Not all are controlled by the Heavens. Now go, before it's too late!
The System's sense of urgency pulled William into action.
He had originally planned to take the Starmetal Safe from the Gravitas Ruins and a few other things with him, but William decided it could remain here for the time being.
He wasn't at Efretta's previous level, so he might not be able to physically manifest and draw items out of the safe yet, but it would at least be protected in the Gravitas Ruins. Like the System said, there was no time to come up with a good solution, he at least had his personal Space Rings on him.
William teleported to the Providence Zone and sat down cross-legged to channel his Spirit Qi.
