516 Energy Cultivation“Could it be a divine-rank energy-gathering formation?” Henrietta spouted seriously.
Vaan and Astoria were left a little speechless. They thought Henrietta was joking, but judging by her expression; it didn’t seem that way.
Although Vaan strongly felt a divine-rank energy-gathering formation wasn’t the cause for the energy’s disappearance, Henrietta must have some basis for her assumption.
It was at least worth hearing her out before refuting her.
“Why do you think that?” Vaan calmly asked with a hint of interest.
“You may not know this, but spirit energy is a kind of source energy that should be present wherever there is life. Even if it only exists in scarce amounts, it at least exists. However, this world doesn’t have a trace of it. That’s why there must be an unknown cause for its absence,” Henrietta explained.
“I’ve recently learned about that,” Vaan acknowledged with a nod.
Henrietta’s explanation helped him make sense of the familiar yet unfamiliar feeling he had felt when he first came in contact with the azure crystal’s energy. It made sense why the azure crystal’s energy felt like an essential part of life that was because it was.
However, for some reason, all life on Pangea was robbed of this energy.
“Still, that doesn’t explain why you immediately assume a divine-rank energy-gathering array is behind the energy’s disappearance,” Vaan mentioned.
“That’s because I suspect we live in a prison world – a world that is either used to contain fugitives or rear living resources by a mighty figure or more advanced civilization.”
Once Henrietta said that, Vaan gave Astoria a quick glance-only for the latter to shake her head.
‘I haven’t told Henrietta about the Ancestral Golden Dragon Pangea. You were the first to hear of it from me.’
‘I see.’
No words were exchanged, but they immediately understood each other’s message.
After receiving Astoria’s confirmation, Vaan felt slightly impressed by Henrietta and the hidden soul supporting her. They could infer the world was a prison world based on so little information.
Vaan became even more interested in learning more about the hidden soul inside Henrietta. It must have belonged to quite an imposing past figure.
Nevertheless, he suppressed his curiosity and focused on the current topic at hand.
“So you believe the advanced civilization built a divine-rank energy-gathering array on Pangea to harvest its spirit energy? It does sound plausible,” Vaan partially agreed before adding, “However, I would like to introduce another possibility.”
“But before that, you should hear from Astoria,” Vaan directed Henrietta’s attention to the person beside him.
“Oh?” Henrietta uttered curiously while doing her best to remain calm.
Nevertheless, before long, Astoria repeated what she told Vaan to Henrietta, allowing the latter to also learn about the Ancestral Golden Dragon Pangea and the world’s history.
“Do you still think a divine-rank energy-gathering array causes the energy’s disappearance after hearing all that?” Vaan asked Henrietta shortly after.
However, Henrietta vaguely sensed the question was directed at her but at her master, who shared her body. Her long eyelashes quivered slightly under Vaan’s seemingly casual but all-seeing gaze.
‘What do you think, Master?’ Henrietta asked.
“This information certainly opens up new possibilities, Empyrean Scarletsea acknowledged before saying, ‘If the entire Pangea continent is actually the body of a golden dragon, this golden dragon must have at least been a Divine Beast in the Divine Transformation Realm!’
‘Divine Transformation Realm…’ Henrietta’s lips twitched.
Unlike mana, which was still relatively new to Pangea, the cultivation of the spirit and divine energy had been fully developed in her master’s world.
There was a clear, systematic path to becoming stronger through the cultivation of the spirit and divine energy. They were developed over the course of countless eons of trials and errors.
Her master had once told her the order of the energy cultivation system.
There were five mortal realms of spirit energy cultivation and four divine realms of the greater divine energy cultivation.
The five mortal realms of spirit energy cultivation were Body Tempering Realm, Energy Condensation Realm, Revolving Core Realm, Heaven Ascension Realm, and Void Realm.
After completing the five mortal realms of spirit energy cultivation, spirit energy would be transformed into divine energy.
As such, the four divine realms of divine energy cultivation stood far above the five mortal realms of spirit energy cultivation.
These four divine realms of divine energy cultivation were called Divine Origin Realm, Divine Star Realm, Divine Transformation Realm, and finally, Divine King Realm.
Thus, if counted in the order from spirit to divine, a Divine Beast in the Divine Transformation Realm would be equivalent to a Rank 8 divine being!
However, what left Henrietta speechless was the fact that such a large behemoth of a creature was only Rank 8, while her master, Empyrean Scarletsea, was an Empyrean God in the True Divinity Realm.
This realm was even higher than the divine realm!
Still, she understood one thing from all this – she was extremely fortunate to receive tutelage from such a mighty figure!
Although the absence of spirit energy had stopped Henrietta from receiving Empyrean Scarletsea’s full teachings on spirit cultivation, things were different now that there was a chance to obtain the stronger form of spirit energy- divine energy.
“Do you have any more of those divine energy crystals? Is it possible for you to exchange some of it with me?” Henrietta asked.
“Divine energy, huh? So that’s what you call it,” Vaan softly uttered before shaking his head. He demanded, “Answer my question first.”
Although Vaan’s demand sounded like an order and was rude, Henrietta was not offended. She was too excited and forgot to answer his question. Thus, she was the one who was rude first.
“I’m sorry, I was too excited just now,” Henrietta first apologized before conveying her master’s thoughts, “If the story is true, it’s less likely that a divine-rank energy-gathering array is responsible for the divine energy’s disappearance.”
“Right, I didn’t think it was likely either,” Vaan calmly agreed.
“That’s why I think the Ancestral Golden Dragon Pangea herself is responsible for the divine energy’s disappearance. It’s hard to believe that such a humongous existence would completely die just like that.”
“Perhaps Pangea is gathering all this divine energy to revive herself,” Vaan mentioned his guess.
However, Henrietta didn’t seem to share the same thought.
“That… also seems unlikely.”
