[Day 393]

I have been steadily draining the energy from the environment around 100 kilometers from my current position, as the days passed inside my divine realm, I gained more and more energy which made for my Divine Energy to refill rather quickly.

Through this amazing Path jewel, I have been also absorbing this energy and instantly converting it into divine points and the elemental essence spread all across the environment was also made into attribute particles.

And also, I have been comprehending the elemental laws. In just 7 days I was about to hit most of them at 100%!

Talk about fast progression… I still lack the power to Rank Up yet, that will take some more time, but I am already catching up with the Supreme Gods in a few aspects. We have to get ready for our eventual departure in the chaotic outside world after all.

We'll be traveling first to the Realm of Aztlan to pick up a few things in the way, but before that, more preparation is required.

For the most part, I've been accumulating power and more power because the thing I most require is energy and resources.

I have been purchasing everything that could possibly emerge in the Interdimensional Merchant Shop, and I have taken ownership of the market at this point.

Any little piece of divine materials was added into my divine realm, enhancing it with elemental divine power and refilling my attribute particles lost when I utilized 80% of all my resources within the divine realm to make this Path Jewel.

I have already recovered from that big wound, and I am now advancing further from it with every single day.

I can produce approximately 500 million Divine Points per day inside my Divine Realm, which is enough to make some Summoning Dao Fragments for a few of my family members in 7 days.

But I haven't done it because I've been thinking about accelerating things even more and making them even more efficient…

If someone had forgotten about my new Grand Dao, the Grand Dao of Path Jewels let me make whatever I want without restrictions.

So instead of havint to pay so much, I began to think…

How about a Path Jewel to help me share any Dao I have, fragment or not, right away with anyone? So everyone gets a minimum of 1 Fragment, but if they want more to reinforce it, they can buy it from the Library.

It works, right?

The other idea was to create a Merchant Path Jewel that can reduce the prize of the cost of making Dao Fragments.

We had calculated the creation of such Path jewels. The later costed billions of divine points, which I didn't had, dozens of them, several dozens. Perhaps such a power as an absolute discount was too much and the power required a lot of energy to create such a law-breaking thing.

But the first idea was more feasible and realistic to do, and it was already within the grasp of my hands.

500 x 7 is 3500! Meaning that today I got 3.500.000.000 Divine Points, more than enough to create this.

I cannot upgrade my Realm Core because it can only upgrade when I rank Up to the next realm, even if I already got the Divine Points, so I will use them in this project of mine to accelerate things up.

Meanwhile, we also decided to add some multipliers into the Path Jewel of Drain so we can get even more energy out of it, which seemed feasible.

So I flew towards the Path Jewel Galaxy, which was now gathering something named Path Jewel Dao Essence, which seemed to be an essence I can use to enhance my Path Jewels momentarily. I've been saving it up for special occasions such as a fight.

Also, after drinking this essence, Path Jewels suddenly become strangely active, as if they gain sentience and become "alive"… all those around my Path Jewel Galaxy had drank it occasionally, and now move around as if they had life.

Honestly, Path Jewels are so strange and bizarre, but they're also fascinating creatures and specimens I've created… I don't honestly know what's their deal, but they're clearly above and beyond in terms of uniqueness.

"Everything should be ready now Master, let's upgrade the Absolute Drain Path Jewel first." Said Andromeda, she had materialized in front of me and was now about to upgrade the big and fatty path jewel of draining, which was constantly draining power form the outside world for us.

It also gained sentience of sorts, and it had a lazy and sloth-like personality.

"Very well, do it!" I said.

FLASH!

Suddenly, a large amount of my Divine Points was spent…

Ding!

[You've exchanged 1.500.000 Divine Points!]

The Divine Points flew away so easily, see you in the afterlife, friends…

And as they go away, they're absorbed by the giant fat jewel in front of me.

FLASH!

It barely grows a few inches, but it now gained a brighter glow.

This was yet another power that now I got thanks to this miraculous Dao. Path Jewels can be added special new effects as long as they match with it, and I got the divine points for it.

But not infinitely, it has a limit per grade, so I don't think I can add as many multipliers as I would want to…

But for starters, this is more than enough~!

Ding!

[The [Absolute Drain and Assimilation] Path Jewel has been upgraded!]

…

[Absolute Drain and Assimilation][Path Jewel Grade: Rank 5 (Supreme God-Rank)]

A Path Jewel capable of draining energy from all types of elements and environment, encompassing a gigantic area around the user which expands as the user develops and grows stronger. Cannot directly drain energy form living or unliving beings, but anything which has no soul can be drained, even residual essence exuded from a living being counts, but not the living being itself.

Abilities:

[Absolute Drain and Assimilation] (Upgraded!): Over a radius of 100 -> 200 kilometers around the user (divine realm doesn't count), all types of elemental essences can be automatically drained into attribute particles, divine energy, divine points, stats, and primordial essence automatically and periodically. Due to the immense range of the ability, it has a slow absorption rate, but due to being so massive its speed compared to before becomes massive.

[Divine Energy and Divine Points Super Drain Enhancement] (Upgraded!): Enhances the speed in which Divine Energy and Divine Points are assimilated and refined by x1000 -> x2000

[Energy Drain Master] (Upgraded!): As a Master over the power of draining energy and assimilation, the effects of this path jewel are enhanced by +1000% -> +2000% permanently.

[Omega Drain] (Offensive Ability): Anything you touch, or your ability touches will have its energy gradually absorbed, its speed is multiplied based in the multipliers of previous Abilities, living and unliving beings can be targeted this way.

[Hastened Divine Points Refinement] (New!): The speed in which essence is refined into Divine Points is enhanced by +1000%.

…

And there it is! Upgraded.

After this upgrade, the sudden rate in which I gained energy was suddenly doubled…

Damn, this is what I call investment. Invest to gain more, then invest once more to gain even more! This is true capitalism made into powers.

Anyways, now that this fatty one was done, it was time to create a completely new buddy.

But we were not going to just limit ourselves into just sharing my Daos, because that wouldn't be possible, a Path Jewel has to have a minimum of at least four Abilities.

We are going to use these two billion divine points left to create this, so of course we can add more to it, but not too much so it won't exceed our "capital".

This will be the Dao Path Jewel, it will be all related to the Dao and their Fragments… So let's add things that enhance their growth speed, comprehension, and more… and this last one so we can expand our influence too.

And done.

"Time to make it dear!"

"On it!"

Andromeda helps me create this Dao from scratch, there's no materials for it this time, it is just pure Divine Points!

FLASH!

All of these Divine Points gather together into a mass of glowing light without stopping, materializing into a large jewel!

FLASH!

It releases another bright flash before finally calms down, shining brightly with yellow and white light…

Ding!

[You've exchanged 2.000.000.000 Divine Points!

[You have created the [Dao Grand Master] [Path Jewel Grade: Rank 5 (Supreme God Rank)]!]

The jewel had the size of around a meter, it wasn't as big as the drain one, but they were on the bigger and fatter side…

"It is done, Kireina-sama… Finally…" said Andromeda.

"Indeed…"

Let's check its effects and deposit it right away into the Path Jewel Galaxy!

…

[Dao Grand Master] [Path Jewel Grade: Rank 5 (Supreme God Rank)]

A Path Jewel capable of Enhancing the growth of all types of Daos. From their growth speed, their comprehension speed, their assimilation speed, and even their ability to regenerate through Dao Fragmentation.

Abilities:

[Dao Share]: Grants the Ability for all those below the authority of the user whom the user allows to acquire a Fragment of any Dao within the User's repertoire without limits of Dao but that of Fragments, each Dao can only give one Fragment to the one sharing the Dao with the user. The user's Dao suffer no damage through this ability method.

[Dao Comprehension and Formation Enhancement]: Enhances the User's Dao Comprehension and Assimilation Speed by +10000%. Enhances the User's Dao Formation and Recovery Speed by +10000%.

[Dao Requirements Reduction]: All requirements to enter into a threshold where a Dao is Formed or where a Dao Fragment begins to form into a True Dao are reduced by -50%.

[Dao Guider]: As The Guider of All Daos, you're capable of sharing all the Abilities within this Path Jewel with those below your authority which you deem worthy of your choice.

…

Amazing! It is just what we needed!

These enhancements are so nice! I am about to have an orgasm… Ooohh…

The Path Jewel flew into the Path Jewel Galaxy, and it quickly formed into it, as it began to absorb the Path Jewel Dao Essence, it acquired a bit of life and sentience, and it flew around.

The effects of this insane Path Jewel had already been activated!

And while I am being showered by Divine Energy, I can immediately begin to share my Dao Fragments with everyone!

Well, it can only be done once… but without restrictions! I can give them all I have, even those I got from the Supreme Gods, behind their backs! Hehehe…

"All my Family, gather around my castle for a special event!" I proclaimed, as my vast family quickly gathered by my call.
