Worldwide Awakening: My Soul Kinds Are Lost

"Damn this idiotic system, it almost killed me..." Wang Linchi thought, his face still showing lingering fear.

Right after the game "God-given World" updated, Wang Linchi immediately cashed out all of his Experience Value, attribute points, and Skill points.

Indeed, seven days after the update, the game would begin its Fusion with reality, but there was still a seven-day grace period.

During these seven days, Players could still log in to the game to level up and fight monsters.

In Wang Linchi's opinion, this was most likely the Game System's plan to further control the world.

But this didn't matter much to Wang Linchi, as he didn't have the scope to worry about the entire world right now.

"The Experience from a thousand levels is only enough for me to reach the ninth revolution of the Secret Silver Level, and it's not even enough to max out," Wang Linchi said. His Mountain Copper Level Nine Revolutions Golden Core had already been completed, and his base spiritual power had reached 1,110,000. He was still 1,111 spiritual power short of his limit, and this number was still increasing.

However, after reevaluating the remaining Experience Value and other data, Wang Linchi realized a serious issue: this amount of Experience was not sufficient for him to reach the Elite Gold Level. The most he could aim for was completing the ninth revolution of the Secret Silver Level Golden Core.

Then again, it made sense. Breaking through the Secret Silver Level and achieving the Nine Revolutions Golden Core was no easy feat.

At that point, Wang Linchi possessed 11,000,000 spiritual power, allowing him to effortlessly wipe out his self from a day ago.

More importantly, all of his abilities had been completely unsealed, no longer subjected to any restrictions. The Saint Master could now easily be summoned.

The Soul Aspect's level division doesn't suit me, but it's still somewhat useful... Wang Linchi thought with a sigh of helplessness.

He was certain that, despite his then-Mountain Copper Level Realm, his combat power could likely be compared to the Bright Moon Level.

The Morning Star, Bright Moon, and Sunlight of Awakeners were indeed powerful, endowed with certain resistances. But, against Wang Linchi's 11,000,000 spiritual power, even a Morning Star Level Awakener would not survive under Fanciful and Fickle; they'd be terminated instantly.

However, his limitations still existed.

This was probably due to the Rule of Ninth Rank set by the Dajing Court. This rule became a part of a person when they were born.

If it weren't for this rule, theoretically, Wang Linchi would not be confined to the Mountain Copper Level now.

However, on second thought, this Rule of Ninth Rank didn't seem to hold much significance for Wang Linchi.

So what if he was only at the Mountain Copper Level? It didn't limit him. Instead, it acted as a safeguard, protecting him from potential issues that might arise from increasing his power too quickly.

The issue stemmed from the imbalance between his Spirit and Physique.

Even without considering the 10,000,000 spiritual power from the Nine Revolutions Golden Core, his own spiritual power alone was already at 1,100,000. Such an increase was something his already late-starting Physique could hardly keep up with.

Mountain Copper Level Physique training? No matter how fast he trained, it couldn't compare to using a Plug in.

Thus, theoretically, other Awakeners at this stage would gradually close the gap between their Spirit and Physique.

However, in Wang Linchi's case, the gap was only growing wider.

The next problem is even more serious; I might not be able to break through to the Elite Gold Level, Wang Linchi thought with a sigh.

The spiritual power limit for the Mountain Copper Level at that time was one million. After the limit breakthrough to the Secret Silver Level, the Mental Power Capacity Limit would be ten million. To hold this enormous amount of spiritual power, one might need a Bright Moon Level Physique to serve as a vessel; only then could the ten million spiritual power possibly be contained.

However, this was something Wang Linchi couldn't achieve. Neither the Soul Aspect World nor this game world excelled in physical attributes.

The foundation of the Soul Aspect World was the Soul Aspect and spiritual power, while the foundation of this game world was mainly the Game System and Player characters. Even during the game's Fusion with reality, it wasn't about boosting one's power directly. Instead, Players would first be covered with a game character shell. This shell would then slowly integrate and fuse with them.

In essence, this was similar to equipment. The game characters became stronger, not the Players themselves.

Players were more like operators and power sources.

The two secret techniques, Strengthening Foundation and Cultivation, are mainly supportive, and their Physique-enhancing effects are still too weak.

If he were in the Soul Aspect World, Wang Linchi would have been able to solve this problem by directly infusing plenty of Physique-enhancing Natural Treasures while using the Soul Forging Method and secret techniques; there wouldn't have been much to worry about. However, in this world, there wasn't even a hint of these Natural Treasures; it was impossible for him to use Charging Money to boost his strength.

The Nutrient Solution had its limits, as it didn't contain any trace of the Transcendent.

I can only wait for the next world. Hopefully, it will be better.

Wang Linchi was not too disheartened. After all, there was some good news as well, such as the Potential position.

After investing all the attribute points from one thousand levels, the fifth Potential position finally appeared. However, Wang Linchi was somewhat puzzled. Supposedly, two hundred levels would have been enough, and the remainder could have been used to develop the sixth, seventh, and eighth Potential positions. He couldn't be sure about the ninth Potential position, as each new Potential position required a geometric increase in resources.

As a result, only the fifth Potential position was unlocked. The rest of the points flowed into his Soul Aspect, seemingly overflowing, and then, through his Soul Aspect, they flowed into his body, transforming into aptitude and Potential, as well as nutrients for the Soul Seed Page. The lion's share was swallowed by the Soul Seed Page.

With his Soul Aspect's trashy state, there was no way it could have absorbed so much.

The Book of Records could only be described as either useless or extremely useful.

According to Wang Linchi's observation, he also understood why this had happened.

It was because the development of Potential positions encountered resistance; each type of innate material could only activate one Potential position. Consider the Dragon Balls from the past: although their quantity was enough to mold a Coiling Dragon–Saint Master—a transcendent Mythology level Soul Phase Plugin—they could only grant +1 to the Potential position. Wang Linchi guessed it was probably due to some rule restrictions, similar to the Rule of Ninth Rank.

Wang Linchi also attempted to make changes but failed to find the root cause, so he gave up. After all, he was out of attribute points. Even though they did not contribute to his Soul Aspect, they were not wasted.

In some worlds, I would be a top genius, but that's not much help...

Apart from attribute points, there was also the increased Cultivation speed from the Skill points; it was indeed an extra Cultivation speed.

More importantly, with the aid of surplus attribute points and the Cultivation bonus from Skill points, the extra Soul Seed Pages for the Black Iron Level and Mountain Copper Level were successfully born.

This was a pleasant surprise for Wang Linchi. He had originally thought this would only be possible after leaving this world.

The real surprise was not the instantaneous creation of the two Soul Seed Pages, but the enhancement of the Soul Seed Pages' Potential. When he broke through to the Secret Silver Level, the second Soul Seed Page would be born synchronously with the first Soul Seed Page. It wouldn't be slowly generated as it was now.

It's a pity that the upper limit for Soul Seed Pages per level is still two. I can't achieve a third, Wang Linchi thought, feeling regretful about this. After switching worlds, compared to Soul Kinds, he favored Soul Seed Pages more, as they weren't subject to as many restrictions. They could be manufactured as long as the Mental Power Capacity Limit was consumed.

Of course, in terms of quality and effect, Soul Kinds naturally far surpassed Soul Seed Pages.

After combining the relevant research on Erroneous Sin and other information, Wang Linchi could confirm that Soul Kinds are the physical representations of rules, and the Mythology level ones he possessed were top-tier rules.

It could be said that the upper limit of the Soul Series System was high. Apart from being tricked by Great View and threatened by the Great Ruins, as long as he developed steadily, the Daylight Level wouldn't necessarily be the upper limit; it could possibly become the lower limit.

Unfortunately, everything came to a screeching halt.

This is perfect. I'll have the Shield and Defense enhancements I need imprinted.

For the Secret Silver Level's two Soul Seed Pages, I'll choose those related to Physique and resistance. Survival is the priority.

There's also the issue of remodeling the Soul Seed Pages.

Wang Linchi rubbed his temples; his head throbbed a little.

The fact that Soul Seed Pages were active Skills had always been a headache for him. Consumption was secondary; the main issue was the need for constant maintenance, especially for the two Soul Seed Pages: Self-healing and Comprehensive nourishment. They should have been passive types, but relying on him to continuously cast them made them quasi-passive.

But it should be much less difficult this time.

As he continued to grow stronger, and his aptitude, Potential, and other attributes increased, problems that were once difficult were no longer so, unless there were certain restrictions he simply couldn't bypass.

Like the Potential position and such—otherwise, it's not a big deal.

I should be able to get everything sorted out before the game's Fusion with reality. I wonder what strange things will happen in this world next.

The Game System is ambitious, the Erroneous Sin is an Error Soul Seeds, the Reincarnator protagonist has become a double-featured protagonist, plus me, a transmigrator who bankrupted the previous world's master...

He felt that if this world *didn't* come to an end, it would be an affront to natural justice.

My resume in the future won't be a series of post-apocalyptic survival experiences, will it? Wang Linchi felt this could be a little awkward.
