Chapter 1256: Draco's Revival

Shuangtian had cleared the first ten levels much as Draco had, amassing 1,453,450 trial score. Do not underestimate this amount because even the cheapest Origin Grade item in the shop started at 1,000,000 Trial Score.

To earn that much, an average True God would have to clear more than 30 floors using up to the hard mode at the very least. Looking at the escalating difficulty of the floors and the sheer drop of those on the leaderboard, one could tell that the difficulty was set as such precisely because of how precious Origin items and above were.

Shuangtian did not waste time and immediately located the cheapest Origin grade item, which was naturally the Eternal's Kiss potion, she redeemed it using 1 million Trial Score and immediately chose to exit, returning to the room within the Morningstar World from which she left.

As for the Divine Essence and Divine Tokens, Shuangtian did not pay them any mind right now. She got 140,283,950 Divine Essence, which was also split into 3 since they still maintained their party.

He also had a hundred raws of the lottery, but she did not spin them this time. Rather, she glanced at Eva who had also simultaneously reappeared in the room with her, along with Hikari, nodding to each other as they both held out the same potion.

Eva and Shuangtian smiled before walking towards Draco, prying open his mouth and feeding him the potion that Eva procured slowly. The other three beauties held their breath, hoping for the best despite knowing that there should be no problem whatsoever.

The glowing orange liquid went down Draco's throat, causing his entire body to shimmer with a hue of the same color. The cracks on his body that made him seem like a vase that had been stitched together began to seal up and his expression of pain evaporated and was replaced with endless comfort.

Before the ladies could jump for joy, Draco's eyes shot open, showing a resplendent star of darkness and malice that caused their hearts to tremble before settling down to their normal green color full of mischief and villainous malevolence.

She rose up on the bed and glanced around to see the five women he cared most about in his life here and his face couldn't break out in a wide grin.

"Am I in heaven? Otherwise, how are there so many lovely angels beside me?"

His cheesy line that would have made anyone snort actually made these ladies very happy, as they knew that there truly was no lingering problem. Zaine, Roma, and Hikari fell into Draco's embrace with tears in their eyes, and the fellow gently caressed and comforted them.

When he soothed them, he saw Eva and Shuangtian who had folded their arms on the side, their expressions cold and full of unfriendliness. Seeing them, Zaine, Roma, and Hikari wanted to say something but respectfully stood behind them in silence.

Draco chuckled. "I'm in danger."

"Hmph, Draco Morningstar, how dare you… <insert 100 paragraphs of reprimands and complaints here>." Eva roared with fury, her voice echoing throughout the room and making the other four wince slightly.

However, only about 5% through her tirade, Eva's voice softened and eventually was squeezed into her throat, because the person she was reprimanding was looking at her with starry eyes.

Clearly, being reprimanded by the pinnacle of beauty like Eva was an enjoyable experience for the fellow, which made Eva feel frustrated and defeated.

And also a little happy.

She turned to Shuangtian for help, who snorted, releasing a plume of smoke from her nostrils as she stepped forward with a cold face.

"Hmph, I am not sure your body has fully recovered. I suggest that we have a friendly 'spar' to make sure everything is working!"

Eva gave Shuangtian a thumbs up. If this fellow would get hard from being scolded by them, surely he couldn't get hard from receiving a beating?

Right?

Right??

Wrong!

As Shuangtian grappled Draco, the fellow shameless groped her large melons and fondled her soft peach. What left Shuangtian full of complaints was that his hands were very cognizant of her weak spots, and the fellow would howl with joy whenever he touched her, saying things like 'its good to be alive' and 'my Shaung'er is thicc AF!'.

How could she focus on the spar in that case? Especially since her heart was thumping with excitement the entire time?

The worst part was that his actions directly made the other four, including Eva, feel a hint of excitement due to their Pavlov-like training over these ten years. Draco had thoroughly devoured them in such ferocity and frequency that their bodies easily responded to his presence and provocation despite their will.

Draco's evil eyes easily spotted traces of his debaucherous influence and snickered. He quickly grabbed all five back into the celestial palace, beginning a week-long orgy that caused the area to become polluted with the law of procreation.

By the time he was done, he sighed with joy as he buckled his belt and got up, while the five were splayed in the room in humiliating postures as their orifices leaked the fluid of love from Draco. Their expression were in the most disgraceful of ahegao ecstasy, enough that if posted, many of their fans would be crushed.

Their beloved goddess whose beauty and allure inspired them to fight hard day by day had made such filthy and vile expressions by this bastard, looking like nothing more than sex pigs. How hateful!

After recharging his will to live, Draco left the celestial place and headed to the barren planet in the void where he usually practiced his Refinement. He had initially resolved to use 8 hours a day to practice it thoroughly until he became an origin god, but he had only one chance to practice before going to the War Maniac Pavilion.

Since then, a whirlwind of events occurred and he hadn't had a chance to practice since then. His current progress relied on him increasing his overall efficiency at the Mortal Stage of Refinement, which could be achieved by condensing 10% of his Mental Power from fog into liquid.

Currently, his progress was 1.1% so far. By refining the dirt on this planet into iron, he also actively refined his mental power from fog to liquid permanently, much akin to the cultivation within Eastern Fantasy.

Through estimation and practice, Draco felt he needed 30 days of time, or a month, to reach 10%. That was because he gained exactly 0.125% progress per hour, and his last session of 8 hours saw him obtain exactly 0.1% progress atop his base of 1%.

Draco sighed and waited for the hour to reach before starting, timing himself. He put all thoughts and distractions away, focused on repeatedly changing the dust below him into iron.

Last time, the mechanics of it had been explained, so now - as an observer - it was more interesting to talk about the physics or visuals of it.

One might have this question in their mind;l how exactly did the fellow actually physically change things? Did he hold the dust in his hand before changing it? Did he place his hand on the ground and change it?

If so, how much quantity was changed at a time and where did it go? How much of the planet was changed per second and how much of its mass had already turned from space dust into iron?

To answer that, Draco initially only held things when he was inspecting them for their knowledge. When changing things, he didn't need to touch things or hold them, as he had psychic power.

Don't forget, Refinement was about using mental power to effect change on an atomic and even quantum level of items. If you had the Mental Power to literally do something like that, then you certainly had some basic telekinetic or telesthesia-related ability.

So visually speaking, what was happening here was that Draco was seated on a spot at the spot at the top of the planet, where its north pole would be. His vast VoP and psychic domain enveloped the entire planet and began converting the dirt on the surface on the southernmost pole.

So the bottom part of the planet was slowly turning into iron while the part he sat on remained as dirt. He also didn't separate the iron from the dirt, rather intending to convert this whole planet into an iron one.

After all, iron had basically no use to him, his family, Umbra, or Vita given it was a Common Rank Material, so he would rather leave this iron planet to be a fixture of his universe. Who knew, maybe it might spawn a special lifeform of iron-based beings or it might be discovered by lifeforms in the Morningstar Universe eons later and mined for wealth.

Draco did not have any pressing matters to deal with after being beaten back home like a dog. That was it for his grand adventuring days, he had been taught a lesson that he had to bloody deal with his power issues first before waltzing around.

So here he was.

Rather than 8 hours, Draco spent a solid 3 days working in Refinement, bringing its progress to 2% Mental Power converted. He gained 0.9% these past three days and his basic overall efficiency had increased substantially, but was still far away from his personal target of 100%.

(AN: Remember, Mental Power is different from Conversion Efficiency. Mental Power is needed for Conversion Efficiency, so the goal for Mental Power is 10% because 10% of his Mental Power will grant 100% basic Conversion Efficiency.)

After this, Draco paused and stood up. When he returned to the Celestial Palace, he found that none of his babes were there. In fact, they were not within his sensory range in the Morningstar World, and after a quick check on with Eva and Shuangtian, he found that they were all hard at work in the Divine Realm.

Eva was working on faith accumulation, Shuangtian was working on territory establishment and the three beauties were all cultivating their Divine Laws within the main Church, eager to increase their power so that they could adventure with their husband again.

Draco understood that they were all still bothered by how he got beaten and how they could not do anything to help. After all, none, not even the gentle Hikari, were the type to stand at the back and pray for his success.

Each of his women were miniature protagonists with fates beyond reason and power that even Draco had to treat carefully. For a significant part of his journey, they were right there beside him, dealing damage or unleashing skills no weaker than his.

While the 100% bloodline achievement had pushed them to a lower tier in power, it was not too bad since there was also Eva and Shuangtian who had equal power to him.

However, this event clearly cleansed everyone's thoughts. They had dominated the Divine Realm and Main plane for so long that they forgot the pecking order. Now that it had been reestablished, they were working hard to climb it again.

In fact, even Eva and Shuangtian would like to train, but there was nothing to train. They did not have something like Refinement which pointed to the Origin Rank and their classes were a dead-end until they completed the event the AI put in place.

The Origin Gods who beat Draco up had explained - in very nice detail along with a practical demonstration - why practicing their bloodlines was also pointless until they could do as Anubesetesh said and condense a Seed of Law.

However, if they could condense a Seed of Law using their bloodlines, then their current issue of self-sealing as well as inefficiency of energy wouldn't exist. In fact, resolving the self-sealing and poor energy efficiency would be more than a million times easier than condensing a Seed of Law, and resolving those two was estimated to take years of dedicated practice!
