Chapter 675: Chapter 285: "Maga’s Chaos" (6k)_2
.........
One week later, within the territory
"Finally!" Bai Yi sensed the panel’s prompt, opened the panel to check, and let out a heartfelt cheer.
After more than a month of targeted construction, the Mechanical Brain Worm’s civilization assessment was finally passed, and she completed the final step required for her superpower’s ascension to the Seventh Rank!
In this week, thanks to her own idol and the promotion of that Faith Rune qualification, plus the involvement of humans, the efforts have finally paid off!
With ascension permissions in hand and the requirements completed, everything is ready!
"The research is completed, the sooner the better, let’s ascend now!"
She had planned for this, all preparations were made just waiting for the ascension.
Without much hesitation, Bai Yi immediately opened the panel and selected ascension.
In an instant, that familiar illusion appeared once more.
As if continuing the ascension of the last two relics, it was still a perspective from a high vantage point, where she could see all the creatures she had created.
From various dungeon worlds to the hidden pieces in the Starry Sky, but this time the view included a little something extra.
There weren’t many, mainly distributed across several worlds, with only a handful in the Starry Sky.
"These are... believers? Indeed, there will be further progress after ascension!"
Bai Yi was pleased, but this time the illusion did not fade as all the believers began to emit a faint golden light.
At first, it was like thin mist, but it quickly started to condense into threads that came towards her, intertwining with the "lines" representing her ten souls that appeared in the first illusion.
In that moment, Bai Yi felt countless prayers ring out in her mind, and the illusory scene shattered suddenly.
"Tsk..."
Bai Yi made an imperceptible contribution to warming the air.
Although the vision shattered, the prayers did not disappear. Although her tribes weren’t praying all the time, the sheer numbers were overwhelming.
The immense prayers had exceeded the capacity of her enhanced brain, causing it to buzz, but fortunately, she had long since researched faith.
Immediately, she initiated the prepared procedure, and all the faith converged into the nest beneath her feet, using it as a transfer filter, and her ears suddenly became much quieter.
"It seems that after this ascension, I can finally directly receive prayers..."
Clearing away the echoing prayers, Bai Yi rubbed her head and muttered a conclusion.
This was also good news, not because she wanted to play the role of a faith deity, but because it could serve as a good means of communication.
She had sent out so many hidden pieces, and not always the chance to establish a church for worship; having such a means prevents complete disconnection.
Setting aside the faith issue for now, easing the tension in her mind, Bai Yi’s face again showed a smile.
With superpowers entering the Seventh Rank, she could finally directly affect the Seventh Rank, gene extraction, weaving, and other abilities would be effective on them. If enhanced by the [Crimson Nest], even ordinary Seventh Rank could not resist effectively.
"It’s a pity no fool would come here directly to kill me anymore..."
With a tinge of regret, Bai Yi began examining her new abilities.
This ascension primarily granted a wholly new ability, one she was quite familiar with, called Creation.
"How interesting, is it really like this?"
[Creation: Transmute any object into Life, bestow upon it living traits, forcibly granting the target a soul, causing the target’s spirit to split]
This ability, originally produced by combining her own superpower with relics, truly became her own ability this time.
Moreover, with the enhancement of belonging to the Seventh Rank, its range expanded significantly, not only for ordinary inanimate objects but also for living beings!
This ability seemed like a culmination and qualitative transformation of her previous abilities, akin to forcibly injecting a soul into a target after cutting the soul.
Only this time, the soul was directly born from the target, capable of interfering with opponents, even making them fight themselves.
Of course, there would be limits to actual use, but it would certainly be effective.
Besides this, her other abilities saw range enhancements, such as her core gene extraction, which could now be performed on inanimate objects instead of needing living organisms.
Although she had long had ways around this, the significance of this ability continued to compress.
Her other abilities largely saw numerical increases, for example, the original accelerated growth now only required a little Magic Power to make ordinary plants grow to a year, with range also expanding.
As long as the Magic Power was sufficient, disregarding the larger consumption with wider range, nearly infinite.
After making some trouble within the territory, Bai Yi confirmed the results.
"It seems this Seventh Rank ascension primarily enhanced original abilities, but this increase in range is still a good enhancement.
Moreover, with Creation and Dissolution, direct combat prowess isn’t weak.
Yes, it’s time."
The ascension was complete; next, she should prepare to use the voucher to head to that instance she had long decided on.
Now, with various cross-world Teleportation methods, preparation was minimal.
As long as she takes Ju with her once, it would be eternal.
But before that, Bai Yi had to first arrange the experiments in hand.
