BXBX NOVEL Chapter 861 Level 25 (2)
Chapter 861 Level 25 (2)
Given the level he was at and the system that was there to help him without limitations, Lothur had no trouble absorbing the two essences simultaneously.
While everyone on the battlefield above Peters City looked at him in surprise, Lothur felt the Immortal Crystal and his 9th Soul Bone positioning themselves within him and integrating with his powers.
With 80% of his Spirit Body already complete and a system that didn\'t have a parasite in it to hinder him, Lothur needed just over 1 minute to absorb these two essences successfully.
At the end of that 1 minute, he had advanced in both his soul and body cultivation, reaching a level even better than when he lost his strength before.
[Name: Lothur Ritter]

Seeing his new status, Lothur felt he was only one step away from reaching level 26 of soul cultivation, as close to that level as Mabel.
\'Perfect!\' He clenched his fists as he looked at his surroundings with satisfaction. However, since his Spirit Body was only 90% complete, Lothur didn\'t feel the sensation Mabel had felt earlier.
Either way, he was much stronger than when he arrived in this city dozens of minutes ago.
He then looked at his new bone and skill.
[Emperor Demon Metacarpal Soul Bone] [Rating: Platinum]
...
[Fusion] [Rank: Platinum]
[Characteristics: Fusion is a special ability capable of transforming two essences into just one, multiplying their attributes.]
[Note 1: It can only be used on items or resources that have not yet been fused.]
[Note 2: Once fused, two items or beings can no longer be separated until they are destroyed or consumed.]
[Note 3: It is possible to fuse living beings. However, their personalities and memories would be destroyed. The being resulting from such a fusion would be like a soulless doll, a slave to the skill user.]
[Note 4: The skill can only be used on things of a lower level or quality than the user\'s body.]
[Progress: 59%]
Lothur was amazed to see what he had gained on this journey, feeling one of the most impressive powers that could exist.
\'This is perfect. I\'ll be able to produce much higher level artifacts and resources for my people...\' He thought, feeling like he was on cloud nine.
As he finished his progress, he saw not only Mabel but all the local Sages gathered around him to congratulate him on his breakthrough.
"Congratulations on your progress..."
More than 30 people said the same thing at once, gesturing at Lothur.
Amidst this, he looked at them and said aloud. "Gather these Soul Bones and distribute them according to their compatibility. Let\'s not delay in preparing against the demons. Now that I\'ve shown myself and our city has won, they will look at us differently."
Everyone agreed and quickly gathered the bones and did what Lothur had just recommended.
Meanwhile, Mabel approached him, curious to know what had happened and why it had taken him so long to return.
"Are you going to tell me where you\'ve been all this time? Viktoria and Annaliese thought you were dead."
"I did die. Fortunately, I have an ability that allows me to return to the world. At that time, an escape device had taken me away, and my being had a chance to recover in peace.
However, my situation was very delicate, so it took me much longer than I would have liked to recover sufficiently." Lothur explained as he looked into his mother-in-law\'s eyes.
"So that\'s what happened..." She sighed, not imagining that Lothur had actually died. \'Then we almost lost him.\'
"Anyway, it\'s a shame we don\'t have time to deal with non-essentials> Otherwise..." He said as he looked at Mabel\'s mature body, feeling that he could improve his Constitution a lot by having fun with her.
Mabel heard this but didn\'t say anything because she also wanted to experience Lothur\'s body again.
\'Really, there\'s no time for such things...\' She lamented.
Thinking about her situation\'s complexity, she remembered what she had felt earlier and changed the subject. "Lothur, after I completed my Spirit Body, I felt something calling me from the direction of the sea.
I can\'t explain it, but I feel that if I want to progress, I have to venture in that direction." She pointed to the east.
Hearing this, Lothur turned towards the coast and frowned. \'There? Is there something beyond our world in that area? But didn\'t the old man say that above level 26, one would reach the same level as his?\'
To Lothur, that old man seemed to be the strongest in the world.
However, he was no longer far behind him. So what could be beyond the oceans that stood between him and the system\'s creator?
"That\'s strange... But we\'ll worry about it in the future. For now, we should focus all our attention on the demons. These creatures have terrible plans for the continent. If we don\'t stop them, we could be the last non-demonic beings in Concordia in no time." He told Mabel in a serious tone.
"Hmm, what do we do now? The demons will probably attack us with everything they have."
"Or maybe not," Lothur muttered. "You\'ll stay in Peters City and continue to defend this place with the others. Earlier, I delivered about 600 Soul Bones to patriarch Koch. So the local forces will be fine even in my absence. In the meantime, I will hunt down these creatures and strengthen myself.
When we hear from the Demon Emperor and know what his forces are like, it will be time to act and attack the demon base."
Mabel agreed with Lothur before separating from him and returning to her position while he left the city.
Meanwhile, Lothur went to the Ritter\'s family to gather artifacts and resources for smelting. While he waited for information on cities recently attacked by demons, he would be fusing resources to create greater things for his people!
