Worldwide Awakening: My Soul Kinds Are Lost

"Finally, it's all sorted out. I'm really pressed for time."

Wang Linchi glanced at the countdown to the game's fusion with reality, which showed just ten hours remaining. During this time, he had completed two Mythological-level Soul Seed Pages, named Heart Light Shield and Diamond Indestructible.

[Soul Seed Page·Heart Light Shield (Mythological-level)]

[Shield: Forms an invisible and intangible shield]

[Meld: The shield exists on a composite level of body, spirit, Soul, Soul, and thought]

[Strength: Shield Intensity +100%]

[Toughness: Shield Toughness +100%]

[Recovery: Shield Recovery +100%]

[Absorption: The shield absorbs damage and converts it into shield energy]

[Recoil: The shield reflects indiscriminate area-of-effect damage or single-target damage]

[Reduction: The shield reduces incoming attack damage]

[Resistance: The shield enhances resistance to abnormal status effects]

[Shatter: Upon shattering, the shield forms a powerful Ring of Repulsion]

[Soul Seed Page·Diamond Indestructible (Mythological-level)]

...

Of the two Soul Seed Pages, Diamond Indestructible was relatively simple, entirely focused on stacking Defense. Most of its aspects were straightforward; the key was its final structured nature. With this one trait, Wang Linchi wouldn't have to worry about problems. He just needed to cover the four main attributes plus his physical body, and he could then modify all subsequent defenses into this single characteristic.

In other words, the first eight traits were foundational. Combined with the tenth trait, they increased all defensive power. He would have liked to fill every trait with the ability to enhance all types of defensive capabilities, but that was unrealistic because as Wang Linchi grew stronger, he himself was constantly evolving. Therefore, his total defensive power could be completely different from one second to the next. However, once structured, this was no longer a concern.

As for Heart Light Shield, it might seem to overlap somewhat with Soul Shield at first glance, but who could complain about having too many life-saving abilities? Besides, the two weren't mutually exclusive and could be stacked. Soul Shield primarily served to conceal and obstruct, unlike Heart Light Shield, which was tangibly prepared to block physical attacks. There was a distinct difference between them.

Moreover, Heart Light Shield was much more flexible. It could exist both inside and outside the body and could also integrate with Soul Shield and Thought Field to create a Domain-like effect. The combination of the three, mutually complementing each other, naturally resulted in a much stronger effect.

However, Wang Linchi's greatest gain in the past few days wasn't these two Soul Seed Pages, Heart Light Shield and Diamond Indestructible, but rather the passivization of his Soul Seed Pages. He had transformed Fanciful and Fickle, Storage Space, Self-healing, Comprehensive Nourishment, Heart Light Shield, and Diamond Indestructible into passive-type Soul Seed Pages, no longer requiring constant cyclical activation.

Of course, the activation of Fanciful and Fickle, the existence and opening of Storage Space, and the passive effects of the other four Soul Seed Pages still required spiritual power. After all, Soul Seed Pages inherently had a cost. If they could function without any consumption, wouldn't that be like a perpetual motion machine or getting stronger from nothing? If he didn't even need to abide by the Law of Conservation of Energy, what rules or Mana would he follow? He'd be a powerhouse with infinite energy.

So, the necessary consumption wouldn't decrease, but once passivated, they remained active at all times without needing to be consciously used. With Wang Linchi's current 1,100,000 spiritual power, supporting the host of passive enhancement abilities on him was more than sufficient.

As for drawbacks, they weren't non-existent. The effectiveness and power of all Soul Seed Pages depended on Wang Linchi's strength; the stronger he became, the more potent his Soul Seed Pages would naturally be.

"With Diamond Indestructible, the pressure on my physique has instantly lessened by more than half," Wang Linchi said, stretching his body.

His current spiritual power was 1,100,000. The final 11,111 points were accumulating rather slowly, even though he had poured a massive amount of Experience Value into it. This was because he was breaking through a limit; no matter how fast, there still needed to be a conversion process. He estimated that the remaining 10,000 points of spiritual power would take about a year.

Anyway, with Dragon Soul Saint Main present, Wang Linchi didn't need to worry too much; he could just use Hang Up.

Therefore, he could shift his focus for strength improvement.

For instance, Soul Kinds.

Various data surfaced in Wang Linchi's mind.

Game character, Cycle Remnant Mark, Protagonist's Aura...

No, it's somewhat unbalanced. Something's missing.

Wang Linchi suddenly realized that if he were to use these three items to create a Soul Kind, a very serious problem would arise.

Firstly, the game character was aligned with Order. The Protagonist's Aura, belonging to Ye Tian and the Fate Devil God, was internally split evenly between Chaos and Order. The Cycle Remnant Mark didn't belong to either of these alignments, so it wouldn't affect the balance. But this way, Order would outweigh Chaos, which would most likely lead to a part of the Fate Devil God's fortune within the Protagonist's Aura being crushed.

Therefore, he had to add an equivalent measure of Chaos-aligned components to bolster the Fate Devil God's fortune and also find a harmonizing element.

Moreover, I need a foundation to support this. That part isn't too difficult; I can handle it myself.

The foundation was a conversion method or technology to transform these items into a Soul Kind, a role his Soul Resemblance could fulfill. The difficulty, rather, lay in finding equivalent Chaos-aligned components and a harmonizing agent.

After rummaging through his Storage Space, Wang Linchi quickly found half a heart.

Yang Chenxu's heart, Anti-Magic Physique.

This can serve as the harmonizing agent. I initially thought it was just a rather unique physique, but now it seems it's because he simultaneously accommodated both Chaos and Order. Although not perfectly compatible, they formed a kind of equilibrium.

Naturally, Wang Linchi wouldn't use the heart itself, but rather extract the data representing its equilibrium to use as the harmonizing agent. The heart wasn't important, nor was the anti-magic property; what mattered was the equilibrium within it. That was what Wang Linchi needed.

It's just that I'm still missing the Chaos-aligned components, Wang Linchi thought, feeling somewhat helpless.

After that Goblin departed, the Game System had completely annihilated those contaminations, so all traces of the Abyss had been utterly erased. He couldn't find any even if he wanted to.

As for trying to cultivate another King Xuan or an Ancient Demon God using the Abyssal Progeny Egg technology, it was completely unrealistic. Wang Linchi had tried; the technology couldn't be replicated. The main reasons were his lack of raw materials and a suitable environment. The Abyssal Progeny Egg technology specified 'Abyss'; only life forms originating from the Abyss or possessing Abyss-related powers could use it.

Chaos... seems insufficient. The power of the Abyss appears to be some kind of Composite Power, with Chaos being just one part of it.

The Abyss can represent the power of Chaos, but Chaos cannot fully define the Abyss.

Currently, there are two paths. One is to capture the Fate Devil God from within Ye Tian. However, it's highly probable that the Demon God has already been stripped of any Abyss or Chaos-related powers. If I really went to capture it, not only would it likely be futile, but I might also end up in a fight to the death with Ye Tian.

It doesn't seem worth it.

Wang Linchi wasn't afraid of laboring in vain; what he dreaded was a never-ending struggle with Ye Tian. Since Ye Tian was a protagonist, Wang Linchi didn't want to confront him unless absolutely necessary; the potential losses outweighed the gains.

So, I can only resort to the second method.

Pick the softer persimmons, don't gnaw on hard bones.

That's right, Wang Linchi had set his sights on the Erroneous Sins. These entities themselves were born from the conflict between the rules of Order and Chaos, resulting in erroneous rules. Therefore, they also embodied both these forces. Wang Linchi only needed to extract enough Chaos from the Erroneous Sins. Or, more directly, he could capture an Erroneous Sin, extract the Order aspect from it, and then use the remaining Erroneous Sin as raw material.

Then, picking a suitable Erroneous Sin would be very appropriate.

And then there's their consumption value. If I have enough Erroneous Sins to consume, my spiritual power will increase even faster.

Wang Linchi could reach the spiritual power limit of 1,111,111 in about a year just by using Hang Up, but if he supplemented this by consuming Erroneous Sins, the speed would be much faster. How much faster would depend on how many he consumed.

The only drawback was that Erroneous Sins were hard to find. After one killed someone, it wouldn't be exposed because all traces and even the existence of the deceased would be hidden. It wouldn't be easy for Wang Linchi to find one unless it delivered itself to his doorstep.
