Death… And Me Chapter 1854: Not That Many

Chapter 1854: Not That Many

Back when the twins went all out on their offensive, the system was in its upgrade process for a month. Eventually, when the twins' army was attacking one of the nearby regions, the system suddenly made a sound.

*Pin!*

[System upgrade completed. Processing power has been improved three times. Access to the system's reward has been restored. New rewards are now available for purchase in the system's reward list.]

Hearing that, the twins looked at each other before Roan immediately pa.s.sed his orders, telling them, "You guys continue attacking according to the plan. Rean and I need to head into our Pocket Dimensional Realm for a bit. Once we're done there, we will come out."

Olly, who was always part of the commanding chain, didn't really mind. "Yeah, yeah. Just go already. With our current advantage, there isn't much the enemies can do anymore anyway."

With that, the twins disappeared from the battlefront and quickly reappeared in the Dimensional Realm. Sure, the upgrade had been completed. However, without any Destiny Points spent on rewards, the Dimensional Realm itself hasn't changed at all. The upgrades were all on its processing power. Of course, that also meant Sister Orb would be able to take control over formations three times faster than before. That alone was already a huge advantage.

[Oh, you're here. Quick, quick! Let's start the upgrades.]

The twins nodded in response and touched the Soul Gem Orb before sending their Divine Energy and Sense inside. Not long after, the list of upgrades available appeared in front of them. Of course, the twins completely ignored the upgrades that were marked as 'bought' and focused on the available ones, especially the new options.

[Nascent Soul Revival - 20000 Destiny Points]

[Soul Gem Dimensional Realm Pa.s.s - 10000 Destiny Points]

[Energy Absorption Upgrade Level 6 - 200000 Destiny Points] (It will go to 30% when they buy it, they have 25% at level 5)

[Soul Gem Dimensional Realm Upgrade Level 5 - 500000 Destiny Points]

[Yin Yang Bathhouse - Reward from Destiny Strugglers t.i.tle]

[World Essence Formation - Reward from Grade 2 Efficiency t.i.tle]

[Soul Connection Range Upgrade level 5 – 50000 Destiny Points] (100000km, they have 10000 at the moment with Level 4.)

[Soul Gem Blacksmith Workshop Upgrade Level 5 - 100000 Destiny Points]

[Soul Gem Alchemy Workshop Upgrade Level 5 - 100000 Destiny Points]

[Soul Gem Electrical Formations Repository Upgrade Level 5 - 100000 Destiny Points]

[Destiny Perception Range Upgrade Level 2 - 100000 Destiny Points.] (1000000km at level 1.)

[Starlight Energy, Soul Power, and Divine Energy Fusion - 1000000 Destiny Points. Warning - once this upgrade is acquired, hosts will need to absorb both Starlight and Divine Energy at the same time.]

To be honest, neither of the twins was surprised by the sudden new reward. After all, they received the option to fuse Soul Power and Divine Energy when they unlocked Soul Power back in the Zasfin Planet. Starlight was also a type of cultivation energy, although it was focused more on the body. Nevertheless, the twins looked at each other with puzzled expressions after noticing the warning on the skill itself. "Absorb Starlight Energy and Divine Energy at the same time?"

One must remember that it was necessary to stop all flow of Divine Energy if one wanted to absorb Starlight Energy instead. The meridians must be completely void of Divine Energy, or the Starlight Energy will simply not go through. With that being said, the system's warning came as a surprise for the twins. They thought that for the fusion to happen, they would have to first absorb each energy individually, and the system would fuse them in their body, just like what it did with Soul Power.

Rean couldn't help but ask after that. "Sister Orb, do you know anything about it?"

[Don't worry. Since the system offered that option, it's because there's a way to do it. If I'm not wrong, you'll use half of the meridians for Divine Energy and the other half for Starlight Energy.]

Roan shook his head, telling Sister Orb, "That won't work. It's because the meridians are connected to the whole body that we use all of them to absorb Starlight Energy. Starlight doesn't go to the dantian like Divine Energy. Instead, Starlight Energy spreads through the body as it pa.s.ses through the meridians. If we use only half of them, only half of the body will properly cultivate. According to the Yin Yang Starlight Manual we got from the system, we must cultivate everything in a balanced manner."

[Hmm... that's true. If that's the case, then I have no clue as to how you'll absorb both at the same time. Perhaps the system will explain after the upgrade,] replied Sister Orb.

It was then that Rean remembered something. "Right! How could we forget? We're still cultivating even when we're not absorbing Divine Energy. Why? Because Celis and Kentucky do it for us. The Divine Energy shared between us does not pa.s.s through the meridians. That means we will need to cultivate Starlight Energy alone while Celis and Kentucky cultivate Divine Energy. Also, did you forget? The fusion of Divine Energy and Soul Power was shared with Kentucky and Celis."

Roan had to admit Rean was right. Celis and Kentucky did indeed have fused Divine Energy and Soul Power because of their connection. "I see... However, they're not using the Starlight Body Cultivation Technique. Would there be any use in fusing Starlight Energy for them?"

Rean pondered over it for a bit before saying, "Starlight Body makes our defense almost as good as Celis or Kentucky. Perhaps they don't need the body cultivation technique to start with. If I'm not wrong, they'll be able to increase the strength of their bodies with Starlight Energy alone. Or, to be more specific, the fused Starlight Energy, Divine Energy, and Soul Power."

Roan shrugged his shoulders after hearing that. "In any case, we'll only know after we buy this upgrade. Unfortunately, it's out of reach at the moment..."

Indeed, the twins couldn't use a million Destiny Points on that. First of all, they didn't even have that many...
