God's Eyes

His words fell on deaf ears because both Artemis and Solaris were staring daggers at the little beast as if they wanted to kill the Sacred Squirrel.

Being able to see and feel everything Jason was seeing and feeling, they could tell what he was thinking even if they were not able to sense his interest in the squirrel's behavior and four blessings.

Thus, they were displeased about the Sacred Squirrel, feeling as if one more opponent had entered the ring, competing to get Jason's attention.

Jason found this ridiculous but instead of doing anything that could be misunderstood, he started to cultivate after saying one simple sentence again.

"Don't eat or burn the squirrel, and focus on cultivating, alright?"

After that, it was time for him and his soulbonds to activate their stigma, whose effects were overlapping, amplifying each other.

Once that was done, Jason's Celestia aura permeated through the entire space he had built as a shelter, and without wasting any time, he started to cultivate in the Mythic Essence technique that had stopped hurting him some time ago.

This meant that he had reached the peak of the first stage, and that he met the requirements to start cultivating in the second stage of the Mythic Essence technique.

Unfortunately, he didn't have the manual, and he had only memorized the first stage, which meant that Jason was forced to continue cultivating with the Mythic Essence technique's first stage until he would return to Luna.

However, it was exactly this thought that made Jason feel a little uncomfortable.

He was not sure why, but something bothered him about the City Lord, which only happened after he had perceived her change in expression when she had been talking about the Immortal Eye.

Because of that, he was not sure what awaited him once he returned from the dungeon, which was likely to be the reason for him to feel this discomfort.

Trying to come up with a conclusion about the changes the Julandra region would have undergone was also not useful, and he could only hope for Jennifer to be fine.

In the end, the halfling had become much more important to him than he would accept.

Initially, talking to her and sparring with her had been fun, but that was everything.

He could have never thought that they would grow so close, which was quite frustrating, considering that they had been away from each other for more than two years already.

Time ran differently for Cultivators, but considering that he was only 22 years old, two years were a long time to spend on a mission.

The same was the case for Jennifer, who was only a few years older than him.

'Well...I will see how everything goes once I return...I guess?' He thought before shaking his head, averting his attention back to the cultivation process.

Yet, before he started cultivating, he took a glance at his soulbonds and the Sacred Squirrel that had snuggled itself into Artemis' feathers, annoying her.

Nonetheless, she seemed to have warmed up to the Sacred Squirrel and allowed it to rest in her plumage after grumbling about it for some time.

Smiling lightly, Jason started to cultivate thinking that the Squirrel had noticed who amongst all of his soulbonds would it have to appease, if it wanted to stay with him.

Moments later, he had already entered a state in which he was able to cultivate using his complete focus on the process at hand.

Greedily absorbing the mana from the surrounding, both Artemis and Solaris were forced to use their utmost efforts in order to prevent Jason from snatching away the mana they were pulling to themselves.

Thus, everyone reached the limits of their current capabilities, allowing them to cultivate at a rapid pace for the next 10 weeks.

Instead of using every single second in order to solely cultivate, adjusting to the increase in strength, doing a little exercise, and practicing one's martial art techniques as well as sparring with others in order to stay fit was equally important.

Because of that, Jason planned to never cultivate until the last possible second.

As such, with almost two more weeks left in which he should be able to reach his best form, Jason decided to leave the mana vein's surroundings.

He had liquefied a total of 100,000 mana droplets and the basic structure of the first large rotating crystal was already created.

Now it would take at least one month until the large rotating crystal was completely constructed.

This was the fastest pace he could reach, and also something he could barely do if he were to be fully focused, and close to a mana-rich environment like the immediate surrounding of a mana vein.

Cultivating so close to the mana vein was comparable to being in a heavenly place to cultivate, and both Artemis and Solaris thought the same.

Artemis had already liquefied 70,000 mana droplets, just after she finished the creation of her second large rotating crystal.

This was exceptional but also something Jason had expected from Artemis, whose liquefaction pace exceeded his own.

She was also faster in constructing the large rotating crystals, thus giving her another advantage.

In the end, Jason could also increase his cultivation speed, but in order to achieve this, he would have to use up the painstakingly accumulated divine energy which he couldn't reproduce as of now.

He had yet to find a way to do so, and the divine energy he had came solely from his Celestia bloodline and the fact that he had broken many seals that had been restricting the abilities granted by his bloodline heavily.

Knowing that his cultivation pace could further increase was nice, but also bothersome because it made unsealing the remaining seals even more interesting than they already were.

If he were to unseal more of the Chaos Emperor's seals, the moment to do this had to be justified, which either meant that his entire being was ready for the additional burden, or that his life was on the line.

Because the latter was not the case, and a huge battle would start shortly, Jason didn't want to waste his time in unsealing more seals for now.

Instead, his entire attention was occupied by something else that astonished him greatly.

Under normal circumstances, only beings that had a soul world within their body should be able to initiate a soulbond contract with other beings.

At least, that was what Jason had known for his whole life. Humans on Argos had always initiated a soulbond contract to bind the beasts they were interested in.

After that, the beast would respond and either accept the soulbond contract in order to form a soulbond, or reject it.

In that case, one would have to accept the rejection or force the beast to become one's soulbond.

For Jason, it had always been the same, even if he tried to build a connection with his soulbonds beforehand, he had told himself to always accept their decision even if they would reject them.

Yet, what was currently happening caused great confusion within him.

That was the case because the Sacred Squirrel was actively releasing a thread of its soul, trying to find a way towards Jason's soul world.

He was not sure how the Sacred Squirrel knew that he had a soul world, if it could see or feel his connection with Artemis and Solaris, or if it was something else.

Despite all the possibilities, it was a fact that the Sacred Squirrel was trying to initiate a soulbond contract with Jason. This astonished him greatly because the being with the stronger soul was always the construct's master, also called dominator.

Thus, Jason knew that he would become the dominant force in their soulbond contract, which made him feel a little bit weird.

'First of all, how the hell is it initiating the soulbond contract....and why?!'
