Chapter 1799 Targeting S-Rank
[ Origin Force Points: 3.87 ]
Eren's accumulation of Origin Force Points over more than five years had completely vanished after activating the Blessing Bestowment function.
Eren had been frugal in spending Origin Force Points, using them only when absolutely necessary. Primarily, he utilized them to upgrade some of his Skills, transforming them into Unique Skills.
He also spent Origin Force Points to enhance the speed of his Ranking Journey while employing the Rootless Tantra. Spending hundreds of Origin Force Points per session had become a routine for him to expedite his progress.
This approach to Tantra practice played a crucial role in his breakthrough to the solid state mana core of the A-Rank within the span of just five years, practically establishing him as the fastest Grandmaster from Anfang.
Once accustomed to practicing Tantra in this manner, he found regular execution of Rootless Tantra unsatisfactory. One could say that he was getting spoiled by the perks that his demi-god status provided him.
The activation of the Blessing Bestowment function marked the first time he had to spend such a significant amount of Origin Force Points at once. Therefore, it was only natural that he felt a pang of regret seeing the number of Origin Force Points at his disposal practically reduced to nothing.
"Haah! No crying over the spilled milk. Let me check the Stats," Eren sighed and mumbled to himself. In the next moment, a Spectral Screen appeared in front of him.

"Not bad," Eren remarked casually as he observed his progress. He then took a deep breath before posing a question to the Mesh in a solemn voice.
"How much time will it take for me to initiate a Breakthrough into the Kaiser Rank?" he asked, waiting for the Mesh to provide him with an estimated time.
[ Estimated time to initiate a breakthrough into the S-Rank using Rootless Tantra along with enhancement provided by the Origin Force Points: 127 years ]
[ Estimated time to initiate a breakthrough into the S-Rank using Rootless Tantra without making use of the enhancement provided by the Origin Force Points: 365 years ]
As Eren unlocked more functions, he discovered additional uses for the Mesh. Recently, he learned that he could use Menaka's Runes to conduct estimation tests on himself and his progress. Despite his near-zero accumulation of Origin Force Points, he still had an abundance of Menaka's Runes, making it worthwhile to spend them on these tests.
"Damn," Eren scrunched his nose upon seeing the estimation provided by the Mesh. Even by taking the fastest known route, it would still take him over a century to trigger a Ranker's Calamity. This pace was still too slow for the current Eren.
It had to be noted that Eren was significantly ahead of anyone in Anfang, even if he were to adopt a slow and steady approach in his Ranking Journey. Spending more than seven to eight centuries to ascend to the status of Sagehood was the norm, even for geniuses in Labh Salem.
Eren would have preferred to take the slow and steady approach. However, his current circumstances in Labh Salem didn't allow him to take things lightly.
"Alright. Now tell me, how can I speed up my progress?" Eren asked the Mesh, spending more Menaka's Runes to get the answer to his question.
[ Generating a list of compatible resources the user could use in their Tantra practice to speed up progress in their Ranking Status: A-Ranked Dragon's blood, A-Ranked Dragon's bones, S-
Ranked Wyvern's blood, S-Ranked Golden Griffin's feathers…. ]
The Mesh provided Eren with a list of resources he could use to expedite his progress. Gathering these ingredients and integrating them into the Yantra would make his Tantra practice twice or thrice as effective with half the effort.
"Hmm? Wyvern's blood? Isn't that how I broke into the Master Rank? So it can be incorporated into a Yantra?"
Eren was made to recall how he had managed to break into the B-Rank right in the middle of the battlefield between the two warring kingdoms after being bathed in the wyvern's blood. He had to admit that the breakthrough initiated by the blood was unexpected and fierce, allowing him to execute the Lazarus Project with even greater confidence than he could have hoped for.
Of course, the reason Eren's foundation was unsteady after using the wyvern's blood to achieve a breakthrough was that he had used it directly instead of channeling it through a medium. The wyvern's consciousness in the blood had given him more trouble than he wanted.
He was only able to achieve a successful breakthrough into the B-Rank because he had killed the wyvern using his own hands before initiating a breakthrough. Otherwise, his consciousness would have suffered a major spiritual injury, and his breakthrough would not have happened.
However, things would be different if he were to use wyvern's blood in his practice through the Yantra available for the Rootless Tantra. The Yantra could completely isolate a wyvern's soul. There were practically no risks involved if Eren were to use these resources through the Tantra.
"So, I need to gather these resources. Um… What if I tell my followers to offer these to me as tributes in exchange for some grand Blessings?"
Eren had a wild thought as he looked at the long list of resources he needed. He then smiled mirthlessly before concluding.
"Naah. Who would risk their life for those resources if I don't give out something of equal value in return? I guess I need to have better Blessings for me to even think about something like that. Let's take one step at a time."
Eern said to himself and closed the Spectral Screen. With countless thoughts swirling inside his brain, Eren took his exit from the underground facility.

A few days went by after Eren deployed his seventh pseudo-
avatar.
Since he had concluded his experiments for the time being, Eren decided to actively tend to his businesses running in Sunhaven.
Eren first pacified Wilfer by sending him a few batches of potions the latter wanted. He then fulfilled the deals he had with Sunhaven's city administration, providing them with plenty of batches of the most-used concoctions they could export to other regions.
Eren also oversaw Kayara's activities, helping her wherever she wanted him to help. He helped her streamline his manufacturing lines that provided his followers with valuable supplies.
Eren also taught Arman during his free time, fulfilling his promise to the boy for his services he was giving him. With his help, Arman officially entered Ace Rank, giving him recognition in Sunhaven.
Ace Rank was enough for Arman to look after all of Eren's businesses that he ran in Sunhaven.

AN: Eren bathes in wyvern's blood for the first time in chapter 1409. His breakthrough into the Master Rank occurs in Chapter 1418.
