Chapter 659 Soul Units
Robin smiled big when he saw Evergreen kneeling in front of him, not because he wanted to see her so submissively, but because he just now felt that he had accomplished what he had worked so hard for... He had become the owner of a planet!
Robin waved slowly, "Get up, seeing an annoying person like you kneeling is not easy on the eyes, let the relationship between us continue as it was."
"En." Evergreen nodded and then looked back at the green star happily, she was looking at her second home
Robin walked over to stand next to her and looked up as well, "To be honest, it's a beautiful sight and has added wonderful color to my soul domain, and for some reason, it's also given me a huge boost in my soul force... but then what? This can't be it right?" Robin looked down at Evergreen, "What can you give me now that I'm your owner? What about that Terra Beast army that you promised me, for example?"
"The Terra Beasts? Is this what you thought about when it came to benefits? Your ambition is very simple, uncle! Anyway, I used my authority and modified a number of Beasts of Terra to increase their production of cubs, so that their total number reached one million beasts currently present in a valley in the south of the planet, I will give you the exact coordinates of the place anytime you want to bring them."
Evergreen finally took her eyes off the green star and laughed, "Now let's get into the real benefits, Since you mentioned the topic of soul force, Let's start with it... You have now linked your soul domain with Planet Greenland's spirit realm, and this will not only give you an immediate boost of twice what you have accumulated in your entire life, which is almost 3,000 units, but it will multiply the speed at which you gather soul force from your surroundings several times and will double any soul force that gets in! As I see it, it is only a matter of time before this place is filled with soul creatures."
"..." In front of this burst of information, Robin was unable to show any reaction other than opening his mouth in stupefaction, "Huh?"
Evergreen put her hand to her mouth and giggled, "Let me explain in more detail, my dear owner, in the advanced planetary belts, starting from the middle aged planetary belt, there are more uses for the soul, and it is an essential part of the path of cultivation, so you cannot say so-and-so's soul is stronger than the average or mine have become stronger than his, and this is a kind of floating vocabulary, and there are no specific noticeable levels that can say that so-and-so is at such and such level. You experienced it yourself when you still had a white soul and you were lord over everyone who also had white souls! So special measurement system for the soul has emerged, and I will teach it to you now that I am allowed to tell you these things."
Then Evergreen put her hand behind her back and raised her head up, then started walking back and forth, "When it comes to the soul, there are clear realms, which are represented by the colors of the soul: the primal White, the silver weapon, the royal purple, and the golden sovereign, But the differences between a single color are too wide so another more accurate system was needed for evaluation, and from here the system of units was created. For example, the white primal soul starts from one unit up to a thousand units. Any living being, when it is born, has a soul force equal to at least one unit preserved within the primal soul, and these are stupid people or people with mental disabilities, but the general average is 5 units per newborn, and for those who are born geniuses like you, you are often born with a soul force between 10 units and up to 50 units."
Then she stood up and pointed at Robin, "You fulfilled the 1,000 units requirement and upgraded your soul to Silver Weapon level. Then you continued to gather more force and then took a huge batch of Hoffenheim's initial soul until you collected 3,000 units in total, and now my refinement has given you another 3,000 units, meaning that you have a total of 6,000 soul units... This is actually not bad at all. Especially when you know that the second strongest person above Planet Greenland when it comes to the soul, Zara, still only has 250 units."
"Only 250 units?! This doesn't really sound good, I've always been telling myself that the Soul Strengthening Technique is missing something, it's too slow, but I can't figure out a way to develop it yet..." Robin rested his chin on his hand and furrowed his eyebrows, already beginning to think of a way to measure Soul Strength units. Evergreen told him about the system and how it is used but he still has to develop a technique or an item for the actual measurement.
Evergreen raised her small shoulders, "Actually, your technique is not bad at all as it pushed an entire army to reach 100 units on average. Don't forget that the Tree Fathers who lived for hundreds of thousands of years also had white souls, meaning they did not exceed a thousand units." Then she pointed at him twice, "But it's really nothing compared to the soul techniques of the Middle aged Planetary Belt, and that's because you lack knowledge."
"Knowledge?" Robin stopped thinking about how to measure units of soul force and looked at Evergreen again, "In what area exactly do I lack knowledge?"
"You created a technique to collect the soul force from your surroundings and annex it to your own... But do you know what the origin of the soul force you are collecting?" Evergreen put her hand on her waist
Robin furrowed his eyebrows slightly and shook his head... The answer is no, he doesn't know.
If the question had been about natural energy, he would have answered with what he knows, which is that the planet absorbs energy called primal chaos around it and turns it into natural energy so that the creatures of the planet can bear it. As for the soul force? Robin had always treated soul force as just natural energy with different properties... Wasn't it?!
"Wait, soul force... could it be--!?"
"It seems that you got it~ The soul force that is always surrounding you and that you are trying to absorb is the remains of the souls of dead creatures." Evergreen nodded
"The remains of the souls of dead creatures? Was that legend true, then..." Robin sat there weakly.
It is common on planet Jura that after death, the body is destroyed while the soul floats around the place where it died for a while before fading. What is new in Evergreen's words is that the soul does not just fade completely, but turns into a soul force that benefits other creatures
When one thinks about it... how many species have lived on a planet since its genesis? Is there a digit that can even describe this number? If every creature among them left one soul unit behind, the available units of soul force would be truly enormous and could even compete with natural energy in terms of density! But it will also be a limited quantity that will not be renewed unless more creatures die.
