Paragon of Sin

er in substitute of Starforce.
They weren’t just a tad bit weaker than so-called ‘genuine’ Ascended.

This was why they were referred to as ‘false’ Ascended.
Outside of their mystic power, they had no other traits of Mysticism.
A greater fuel for an old machine did little before an upgraded superior machine with multiple added functions running off the same fuel.

He didn’t blame society for differentiating them, including their low lifespans.

Wei Wuyin’s astral force hasn’t reached that mystic power stage yet.
If it had, he wouldn’t have been able to manipulate it at all.

“My tainted astral force isn’t mystic power, but it can be used to concoct transcendent-quality products, so it has sufficient mystic qualities within that could rival true mystic-graded materials.
In that case, it should be called Quasi-Mystic Power or Mystic Force.
I like the latter.
Let’s go with that.” Wei Wuyin decided with a nod as he continued testing its unique properties and powers.

Nothing had changed in regards to his innate energies, they weren’t affected by the Mystic Light or amplified.
It was limited solely to his World Seas that contained his refined astral force, now mystic force.

“If we enter the Star Core Phase, will our astral force that evolved to starforce transform into mystic power?” Ori asked curiously, baffled by the complex nature of their recent growth.

“…” Wei Wuyin and Eden were silent, contemplating this possibility.
Eventually, Wei Wuyin and Eden voiced simultaneously: “No.”

It wasn’t Starforce or the Mystic Light that defined Mystic Power, but the Seed-level of Mystic Intent.
Considering this could only be acquired as an Ascended being, it was impossible for it to evolve in that direction without breaking all forms of conventions and common sense.

A Mortal controlling Mystic Power? How ridiculous would that be?

“What about this Mystic Light? Is it like our Soul Light?” King, shockingly, asked this question.
The fact that it spoke again caused Wei Wuyin, Eden, Ori, and Kratos to take every word seriously.
Every word that King had said thus far was like liquid gold and extremely important.
They all grew solemn.

Wei Wuyin’s eyes lit up abruptly, bringing out the Nexus War Flag.
It was the War Talisman that contained not only the powerful and domineering Legion Commander but 9,999 other Ascended beings.
An entire army!

When the Legion Commander had used his essential soul power, causing him to enter into a state of hibernation.
It needed Soul Light to recover, but Wei Wuyin’s Soul Light was at the Mortal-grade, so it was unable to swiftly recover.
The issue wasn’t really Wei Wuyin’s Soul Light, but the rate at which it replenished.

Unlike the other forms of energies, Wei Wuyin could only absorb and refine light energies to produce more Soul Light from his Primary Light Sources.
This was a long process, one of the few cultivation processes that he couldn’t delegate to his Externalized Astral Souls.
While they could rapidly refine light energies, their Soul Light was incredibly powerful, requiring time and effort.

By estimations, if he focused solely on the task, it would take a few years, but with his Primary Light Source continuously exhausted, he’d never be at full strength.
The Legion Commander’s essential soul power was just too powerful.
Considering it was of an Earthly Saint, this wasn’t unbelievable.
Of course, if anyone knew that Wei Wuyin only needed a few years to recover a Spirit of War that exhausted its essential soul power, they might faint from disbelief.

Wei Wuyin intended to find a Primary Light recovery product from an Alchemist Association.
In the True Element Sect, he expected to find a few, but he hadn’t found any! While he obtained some concoction methods that could refine the quality or increase the quantity of innate light energies post-Light Reflection Phase, he couldn’t find any that focused on replenishing the Primary Light Source.

He was mind-blown by this discovery.

Why?

Because he had already conceived one!

How could no one else develop one? In truth, it was likely too advanced for the Alchemical Legacy of the True Element Sect.
There might be some in dedicated Alchemist Associations like the Everlore Association.
Yet Wei Wuyin still felt a little frustrated because he was functioning off of self-created theories of material interaction and eventuality of their effects, not any concrete information of what worked.

“Let’s see if this Mystic Light has an effect on the War Talisman,” Wei Wuyin placed his annoyance aside, infusing his astral force into the War Talisman to see if it had any effect.
After a long while, his eyes brightened!

It had…

Failed!

The War Talisman absorbed the innate Soul Light refined in his astral force, acting as a semi-permeable layer that pushed all else aside.
His astral force visibly grew weaker and the Mystic Light remained the same, pushed away all the same.

While this Mystic Light might share some similarities to Primary Light, it wasn’t Soul Light.
Considering there were various types of light, from Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet, White, True, and Soul, it was unlikely that this Mystic Light bore the same qualities as Primary Soul Light.

“How unfortunate,” Wei Wuyin muttered.

Kree!

Bai Lin stretched her head over, rubbing against Wei Wuyin’s cheek.
Wei Wuyin instantly knew what Bai Lin was worried about.
With his ability to concoct transcendent-quality products alone, their joint concoction activities would soon come to a close.

However, he couldn’t help but helplessly smile.
The issue wasn’t just the Terra-Mystic Ore, but her Nirvanic Flames had left behind traces of its power too.
If other mortals refined it with their bodies, they might experience what he felt earlier, a scorching sensation followed by a heavy difficulty in refining it.

Only Mystic Ascendants could benefit, but there weren’t many astral-graded products that could benefit them.
At least, the Astral World-Deluge Pill might be useful if it helped replenish mystic energies and grew the cultivator’s Mystic Core.

But he’ll have to test these effects.
But…this could…

Wei Wuyin’s eyes brightened considerably.
If it worked for Ascended beings, then he could add it to the market.
The added effects of the fire, earth, and metal mystic-graded energies could greatly benefit them too.

Suddenly, an idea sprung into his mind! He couldn’t help but lift his head and chuckled loudly, feeling immensely pleased with himself.

He caressed Bai Lin’s neck tenderly, “Our sessions together aren’t over.”

Kree!

After hearing that, Bai Lin cried with joy.
She loved their times together.
It was peaceful, and she got to be with Wei Wuyin.
Just them too, just like before.

Wei Wuyin was doing calculations when he glanced at the War Talisman.
He recalled his theorized product and the faces of all those Spirits of War that he slayed.
With a slight smile, he said: “I can’t wait to see how you all react.”

He brought out a large, three meters in diameter-sized spherical crystal from his Saint Ring that contained bits of sparkling starlight littered throughout!

Stellar Rain!
