God's Eyes (Web Novel)

Preparing to advance his cultivation and break into the Ascendion stage was easier said than done.

While each of his soulbonds were accumulating liquefied droplets of their cultivation energy, Jason had to do exactly the same.

However, even after he had gathered more than 400,000 mana droplets, Jason didn't have enough.

These were manifested out of the mana one would normally require to liquefy more than a million mana droplets.

This would be required to create even the most basic form of the mana thread that ought to connect to the thread of his soul.

This was quite disadvantageous, and frustrating because Jason had hoped that it would be possible for him to enter the Ascendion stage soon.

An increase in his combat prowess would certainly be what he was looking for, and that was not only for him to complete suicidal missions that provided him with Soa crystals.

Rather, it was for his own, and Jennifer's safety.

The news about the Soul Monarch and his guards was reassuring because they seemed to have stopped making an appearance, but that was exactly what made Jason become so restless.

Taking deep breaths, he couldn't help but feel as if he should have entered the Ascendion stage by now.

At least, this would have allowed him to undergo the secondary Celestia bloodline awakening, strengthening him further.

Reassuring himself that he was fine and that nothing would happen to him, Jennifer or his soulbonds was the most important.

Yet, being unable to do so, Jason was almost desperately trying to cultivate faster and faster.

In the end, he didn't even care if someone else were to notice him as he unleashed his Celestia aura, which Jason intertwined with divine energy before activating his Stigma.

Simultaneously, his five summoned soulbonds also released their Stigma, allowing their effects to overlap.

Through this, the surrounding energies became too scarce for Jason to cultivate, and soon citizens began to complain about the scarcity of the cultivation energies.

It prevented them from cultivating properly, and once the Elders figured that it was Jason's doing, they sent out their servants to request him to stop overdoing it.

They figured that Jason was restless, but at the same time, they couldn't allow him to do anything he wanted, and explain to him the need to be considerate to the other citizens.

In Jason's opinion, all of this was quite disadvantageous, and he couldn't help but grumble, even though he understood the situation.

Because he was restricted from cultivating with the highest amplification possible, let alone a proper proficiency of the Divine Maestro cultivation technique, Jason could only change his point of focus.

Elder Ben told Jason that if he had enough cultivation resources, he should use one of the few isolation rooms in which one could cultivate without the slightest interruption.

They were deep in the underground, and prevented even the slightest trace of energy from leaving the room.

Jason liked this idea, and his interest grew further when the Elder told him that there was even a large-scale energy circulation runic field that increased the circulation speed of energy within every single being inside the room.

Given the pieces of information he had received, Jason knew that the isolated cultivation room was nearly perfect for him.

In fact, it was most likely the best place to break into the Ascendion stage, and to undergo his secondary bloodline awakening.

Not having to worry about anyone noticing him would be the best, and it would also allow him to safeguard his secret of finding out that he was also a halfling.

This was not something he had to hide, but it was certainly better if not too many people figured out the truth.

After all, based on his experience so far, most problems started to occur, once someone figured out that he was a halfling. And even if he shared the truth, nobody believed that he was a descendant of the Celestia race, either way.

As such, it was better to keep his mouth shut and take care of himself.

With that in mind, the only issue he figured out was that he had to procure a fortune of cultivation resources, including nutrition solutions in order to practice in the Kanadi of a Primordial technique.

In the end, it would be the best if he allowed his soulbonds to enter the Ascendion stage along with him too.

After giving this a thought, he realized that procuring a huge fortune of cultivation resources for himself, Jennifer, and all of his soulbonds would require lots of effort, time, and resources.

With five soulbonds, him and Jennifer, they were a total of seven, and even if Sira was not cultivating properly, it was not as if she didn't need any resources.

The more Jason thought about it, the clearer the necessity of procuring more resources became.

Exchanging the goods he had with the resources he demanded was possible, but that would use up nearly everything they had acquired in the time they had spent inside the elemental cave.

That would mean they would be forced to sell everything for cheaper than it was actually worth for Jason, who was a blacksmith.

He might not have forged since the day he repaired Byakur within the Dungeon of the Primordial Descendant, but this was not exactly an issue.

The knowledge was still deeply imprinted in his mind, and only his body had to recall the movements he had repeated for thousands of times in the past few years.

As such, Jason decided to forge weapons, armors, and everything that was high in demand using the resources he and Jennifer had procured in addition to a few other ores.

Using the resources of the Yinar race was also possible as long as he exchanged a few elemental crystals with the ores he required.

However, before he would do something like this, Jason told himself to work on improving his reputation.

And the easiest way to do so was to forge the best weapon he could; a Mythical grade weapon at the highest possible grade!

Right now, owing to his resources, the best weapon he could forge was at the Late or Peak Prismar grade.

Perfectly purifying them, and inscribing some runes at the Prismar grade onto it would be more than enough to achieve whatever he wanted.

Yet, instead of doing something hastily, Jason approached the blacksmithy store in the City.

He was alone, while his soulbonds were busy inside his soul world, cultivating for themselves.

Meanwhile, Jennifer was also in their room and focused on cultivating.

Everyone had realized the possible dangers that might reach them at any moment.

As such, Jason was alone, procuring the necessary fortune in order to reach the Ascendion stage with everyone, including his soulbonds.

They should use the phenomena of his secondary Celestia bloodline awakening in order to attain a fully focused state in which their comprehension increased, allowing them to merge their vessel with their soul.

This should be possible as long as there was an ample supply of resources.

If his four soulbonds were to reach the Ascendion stage, his combat prowess would increase even further.

However, there was one issue he could instantly gauge.

'If the Soul Monarch were to attack, how the hell am I supposed to flee? Flying away is useless, and I don't have a spatial affinity that allows me to jump through a portal to reach a place hundreds of kilometers away from me!'

It might be great to reach the combat prowess to be on equal terms with someone at the Low, or possibly Mid Ascendion stage, but he was facing a time crunch and didn't have the luxury to wait for a solution to pop up unexpectedly.

The answer was extremely simple, and even though his soulbonds didn't like it, Jason felt like he had to take a look at a new soulbond; one with a spatial affinity!

Yet, before he began his search, he entered the blacksmithy where his Emperor Eyes immediately perceived the great value of every single forging tool.

This caused hope to bloom in his heart as he smiled brightly before approaching the blacksmith, who was busy cleaning a battle-ax that radiated a strong greenish hue.

Jason couldn't help but feel excited to see this, which caused him to speak with the blacksmith as if he was a good friend, completely ignoring a formal way of approach.

After all, blacksmiths were friends of unique forging!

"Hello Sir, is it possible to rent the forging room for a day?"

He wanted to lodge a room for far more than a day, but his first task was to show the blacksmith that he was capable of forging a wonderful Mythical weapon at the Peak of the Prismar stage.

That was the most important, and it might even allow him to partner up with the blacksmith, which was what Jason was hoping for.

Yet, when he saw the blacksmith's expression, Jason was not so sure if this would work out.

"You can rent a forging room, but who the hell are you? And what can you forge, to begin with? I don't plan to let some rookie destroy my tools just because you want to test out forging!"

Understanding the blacksmith's concerns, Jason nodded his head and answered politely.

"I can forge Mythical grade Prismar rank weapons, and my name is Jason Stella. I'm an Agran, nice meeting you!"

Hearing Jason's answer made the blacksmith eye Jason oddly, which, in turn, caused him to smile dryly.

"Well, if everything works out fine, I want to isolate myself to forge for at least a month afterward too!"

A month of forging was merely hours worth of time for a Cultivator.

However, solely focusing on forging for a whole month was something even the best blacksmiths were unable to do, if they wanted to maintain their quality.

Yet, upon seeing the confident smile of Jason, the middle-aged blacksmith couldn't help but look at the young man in doubt.

Jason's golden eyes were drawn towards the battle-axe, and the blacksmith noticed that.

It was not uncommon for visitors to be attracted to his weapons, yet, Jason's gaze was a bit different than that of the other customers.

This was abnormal, and even if it sounded ridiculous and nearly impossible, the blacksmith was sure that the youth at the Peak Prismar stage was capable of doing what he stated with confidence.

It was just his gut feeling, but he was facing a shortage of weapons, to begin with.

As such, he eyed Jason with newfound interest, thinking that the young man had shown up at his doorstep at the perfect time which caused him to be grateful.

'Maybe, he really knows what he wants to do?'
