After having absorbed the powers of all those Elemental Titans, I was able to assimilate a tremendous quantity of their energy, enough for me to take a decision.

Instead of just letting it rot away inside my Cosmic Realm or to act as additional Essence or Elemental Particles, why not strengthen my foundation even more with it?

Only Seven Jewels was already powerful, but the gauntlet seemed not as stable as I wish for, and aside from it being a temporary form, there was another thing that was disrupting its powers.

And that was that I needed more Spiritual Hearts to complement the rest, the ones I had right now possessed very strong elements, so I wanted some more "basic" elements so they can complement better.

I did plan to make it ten Spiritual Hearts, which I believe might be my limit of how many I can connect to my Body and Soul.

So...

FLUOSH!

Within my Cosmic Realm, an enormous sea of spiritual flames and frost gathered together, beginning to be rapidly compressed into a single, heart-shaped crystal.

RUMBLE!

The entire Cosmic Realm trembled, the stars above dissipated and the earth beneath began to shatter apart, burned and then frozen.

Using all the Frost and Fire Spirit Energies I gained by eating the Elemental Titans, I made myself an eighth Spiritual Heart!

FLASH!

The crystallization was completed as all the energies came together into the shape of a huge red and blue heart, concentrating into their shape and beautifully crystalizing together into a wondrous spiritual treasure.

It was like the others in shape and size, but the essence of ice and fire was very powerful, constantly creating a cold wind and fiery red flames... sometimes they merged, creating mist from vapor, or even freezing flames of azure color.

"Very interesting..."

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have successfully forged the [Divine Spirit Heart: Spiritual Unification of Frost and Fire (Tier 7)]!]

[You have gained a large quantity of Fire and Ice Spiritual Cosmic Particles of Energy, your Element of Fire and Ice has been strengthened massively, and so your Spiritual Energies.]

[You gained +5.000.000 Ancient Essence.]

[You gained +4.000.000 Cosmic Power.]

[You gained +2.500.000 to all other Stats.]

"Wow, so much power, and it's only Tier 7!"

If it can Rank Up and reach Tier 10, then I'll be able to gain even more bonus stats, which is quite convenient and nice. Spirit Hearts are indeed one of the easiest ways to get overpowered fast. I should help everyone get more than one, though I wonder if they can.

Ding!

[You have reached over 100 million Cosmic Power Stat!]

[You can now create your {True Cosmic Authority Nexus} by combining five Divine

Authorities, Five Daos, Six Skills, and Six Title Skills.]

[Additionally, you'll require a large quantity of Cosmic Materials, including World Cores and Stars.]

"Oooh? Interesting! So I unlocked another thing now..."

I read the system message and smiled lightly.

It seems that this True Cosmic Authority is what the other Cosmic Beings have, right?

I've only fought a couple, but I know they all had some immensely powerful ability that seemed to completely shut down my skills or Techniques sometimes.

It could go from letting them break through any defenses, to even become immune to damage that wasn't within their range of power.

What comes to mind was Shub-Niggurath and also the Recessed I battled, all of them had some type of True Cosmic Authority within them.

Perhaps even that Nirvana guy had something similar...

[Once you create your {True Cosmic Authority Nexus}, you'll be able to advance further through your path to power as a Cosmic Being, gaining the power to absorb Cosmic Aether Particles and utilize them to improve upon Cosmic Scriptures, unique to the Nexus.]

"So that's another new progression system... Is this something everyone has, I suppose?"

I guess the Origin System helps me get it all easily and without problems as it is assisting me constantly to grow stronger, so that makes things less complicated.

Well, it seems I still need more materials, I need World Cores and lots of Stars, and I'm preparing those to feed my family first, so this will have to wait until that's done.

It's not like it's super-fast to duplicate them either, the stars take a looong while to divide and everything, without provoking them to blow up.

"Now, what else should I do?"

The castle was already within our view, so we would be engaging on a battle very soon.

And...

Ding!

[The [Primordial Star Core: Lv6] Skill Ability [Cosmic Treasure Prize Drop] has been

activated!]

[All defeated Foes bodies and leftover energies have been processed and transformed into Dropped Loot!]

[At your command, the low-rank Loot has been combined to generate better Loot but in less

quantity.]

[You received the following Loot: [Corrupted Frost Fire Elemental Titan Treasure Chest

(SSS++ Grade)] x100]

"Right, there was this..."

I did get Soul Fragments as well, but I ate those instantly, which allowed me to forge the

Spirit Heart like I wanted, so that's already taken care of.

Now, to the items I have... There's still a lot I want to use.

[Cosmic Skill Fusion Ticket (SSS Grade)] x2

[Vampiric Skill Fusion Ticket (SS+ Grade)] x2

[Skill Fusion/Evolution Ticket: Archdemon of Wrath Soul (SSS Grade)] x2

[Random Lesser Skill Grimoire (Old System/Compatible) (C Grade)] x100

[Genesis' Supreme Goddess of Life and Nature's Cosmic Divine Arm of Yggdrasil Wood and

All-Healing Sap (SSS Grade)] x1

[Genesis' Supreme Goddess of Life and Nature's Divine Cosmic Soul Cluster (SSS Grade)] x1

[Chimeric Vampiric Beast Treasure Chest (SSS Grade)] x3.000

[Chimeric Abyssal Spirit Titan of Blazing Wrath Themed Treasure Chest (SSS+++ Grade)] x1

[Chimeric Abyssal Spirit Titan of Broken Dreams and Nightmares Themed Treasure Chest (SSS+++ Grade)] x1

[Corrupted Frost Fire Elemental Titan Treasure Chest (SSS++ Grade)] x100

Do I even have the item to open all those treasure chests? Like, seriously, three thousand?! I guess I'll have to combine them into higher Grade ones because I'm not opening three thousand treasure chests full of garbage I won't need.

As for the last one, one hundred is still a lot, I might have to combine them even further, or even gift them to my family as well.

Still got plenty of Skill Fusion Tickets, and the Skill Fusions so far had all been amazingly useful, so let's make another one for the occasion.
