The title Elemental Spirit Master helps a summoner in connecting all his official Elemental Spirits.

Once they are connected, their cultivation and awakening percentage of the Elemental Ascendance would be linked, meaning one Elemental Spirit’s progress becomes everyone’s progress.

’T-this...they are even connected when it comes to Divine Evolution?’

However, Ajax was not expecting that even the Divine Evolutions of his Elemental Spirits would be connected under the title: Elemental Spirit Master.

Nevertheless, Ajax became overjoyed.

’Swiish’

’Swiish’

’Swiish’

In the next moment, more than 1600 Elemental Spirits in his Divine Inner World suddenly erupted with dazzling divine lights.

Soon, thick cocoons covered all of them like giant eggs.

[All the Elemental Spirits have started the Divine Evolution Process]

[It is estimated that the Elemental Spirits will emerge from the cocoons within one or two months]

Ajax was not surprised by this system notification.

After all, Floris herself stayed inside her cocoon for more than a month before successfully completing her Divine Evolution.

’Even though the system revealed the evolution requirements for the Elemental Spirits, there was no way I could evolve all my Elemental Spirits into Divine Elemental Spirits individually.’

The requirements, like Divine Essence of Nature, Divine World Cores and Divine Grade Seeds, were difficult to obtain.

However, they were not impossible for Ajax.

But the real difficult requirement was the Sentient Flames.

It was already extremely difficult to encounter a Wild Sentient Flame in the Dark Region.

As for taming one? That was even harder.

Moreover, considering the number of Official Elemental Spirits under his control, it was impossible to evolve all of them into Divine Elemental Spirits through the manual evolution process.

Thus, Ajax originally planned to evolve only a few important Elemental Spirits depending on the type of Sentient Flames he encountered in the future.

But now, thanks to his Special Talent, all his Elemental Spirits would evolve into Divine Elemental Spirits automatically.

’Looks like my luck is still pretty good.’

In the universe, there was no information about the Divine Elemental Spirits, let alone someone having a Divine Elemental Spirit.

But, thanks to his Special Title: Elemental Spirit Master, he would soon have more than 1600 Divine Elemental Spirits.

’I highly doubt that even in the Heavenly Realm, there will be no summoner with these many Divine Elemental Spirits.’

Ajax was being proud of having so many Divine Elemental Spirits; however, the moment Ajax said those words, a new system notification instantly appeared before him.

[Ding]

[The existence of Divine Elemental Spirits in the Earth Realm is forbidden]

[Therefore, the Divine Elemental Spirit: Floris will be sealed inside the host’s Divine Spirit Consciousness by the universe until the host ascends to the Heavenly Realm]

’What the...’

Ajax cursed under his breath.

’If it is forbidden, then you should seal their Divine Prowess, not the entire Elemental Spirit!’

’Swiish’

Before Ajax could react, Floris instantly turned into a ray of light and disappeared into his Divine Spirit Consciousness.

"Master..."

Floris could only reveal a helpless smile before vanishing completely.

On the other hand, Ajax’s face darkened.

Even though only Floris was sealed for now, the same fate awaited all his other Elemental Spirits the moment they completed their Divine Evolution.

’Damn it...damn it...I can’t even be happy about having Divine Elemental Spirits.’

Ajax could only curse his luck.

As expected, one month later, after all the Elemental Spirits completed their Divine Evolution and became Divine Elemental Spirits, the universe sealed every single one of them inside Ajax’s Divine Spirit Consciousness, just like Floris.

That’s not the end of his bad luck, as he received another two system notifications.

[With the evolution of the Elemental Spirits, all the official skills have successfully upgraded into Divine Skills]

[However, since the Elemental Spirits are sealed, the Divine Skills will also be sealed]

’Why did you leave the Divine Rules? Just seal them too.’

Ajax was frustrated at the universe for sealing not just his Divine Elemental Spirits but also his official skills connected to those Elemental Spirits.

So, he asked the universe to seal his fully awakened Divine Rules.

[The universe can’t seal the fully awakened Divine Rules as they are required for the cultivator to trigger the Ascension Tribulation to the Heavenly Realm]

[Do you want to trigger the Ascension Tribulation?]

Any cultivator in the universe can trigger the Ascension Tribulation as long as one of his Divine Rules is fully awakened.

Since Ajax had fully awakened two Divine Rules, he could trigger the Ascension Tribulation whenever he wanted.

’No.’

However, Ajax had no plans to trigger the ascension tribulation...at least not yet.

’I am planning for a powerful ascension, and I am still far from achieving it.’

Previously, the system had shown some requirements for the powerful ascension.

As long as he achieves the powerful ascension, the more powerful he could become in the Heavenly Realm.

"Father, don’t make the same mistake as I did and initiate the forbidden evolution of the Elemental Spirits."

Ajax let out a helpless sigh.

Even though he was still extremely powerful thanks to his Divine Body Cultivation and fully awakened Divine Rules, losing his Elemental Spirits and Official Skills greatly affected his overall combat strength and convenience during exploration.

After all, for a summoner, the Elemental Spirits and Official Elemental Skills were extremely useful in battles and world exploration.

Thus, he didn’t want Aron to suffer the same fate.

"So, until you are ready to ascend to the Heavenly Realm, don’t evolve your Elemental Spirits into Divine Elemental Spirits."

Ajax seriously warned his father, who was also eager to evolve his Elemental Spirits after witnessing Floris’ transformation.

"Son, don’t worry."

Aron, whose appearance looked even younger than Ajax’s due to his body being newly constructed, lightly chuckled.

"You know, I am not the type to be impatient."

Aron was known for being the most patient cultivator as he waited for thousands of years as a soul. So, he reminded Ajax that he was not an impatient one.

He then continued with a confident smile.

"I will evolve them only before I plan to ascend to the Heavenly Realm."

"Good."

Ajax nodded his head in satisfaction.

At least this way, Aron wouldn’t lose access to his Elemental Spirits and Official Skills before ascending.

Soon, the three of them once again continued their exploration deeper into the Dark Region.

...

Present Time...

After clearing all the Giant Dark Rats in the Dark World, Ajax directly entered the Core Realm in his Divine Spirit Consciousness Form.

Since he had no summons or contracted Spirit Beasts to protect his body, Ajax quickly extracted the World Core.

[Ding]

[Congratulations to the host for successfully extracting the World Core from the Smaller Grade Dark World]

[The world will collapse in five minutes]

As soon as Ajax’s Divine Spirit Consciousness returned to his body, he immediately received the system notifications.

At that moment, the entire dark world started trembling violently.

’Rumble!’

The black ocean surged wildly while massive cracks spread across the dark sky and land.

Without the World Core supporting it anymore, the world had already begun collapsing.

’Time to leave.’

As someone with lots of experience in destroying worlds, Ajax didn’t waste any time.

’Swiish’

His figure instantly shot toward the edge of the world at an incredible speed.

Along the way, Ajax couldn’t help but wonder,

’I wonder how much universe recognition I will receive for destroying an entire Dark World?’
