679. Heal & Upgrade
🕑 Added 2025-06-26 01:30:23 +0000 UTC“So, what’s next?” Odin asked.
“I’ll be using that timeline to recuperate my injuries and help Ra and the Ancient One. You need to keep an eye on our timeline and keep an eye on anyone who might want to use this opportunity to cause chaos.”
“I’m on it.”
“And tell Frigga and T’Chaka to speed up things.”
“I will.”
Edward nodded before controlling his half body to penetrate the barrier of this Earth, which Morgana randomly called Earth-645. Edward immediately gained control of Vitalis’ Blood Dimension. He took out a seed from his treasury and infused the power of the dimension into the seed until the entire thing collapsed on its own.
Edward then casually threw the seed in the void. In less than ten seconds, it grew into a towering tree that was visible to half of the universe. The tree suddenly condensed an incalculable number of roots that directly targeted any living creatures.
The root would be embedded in a creature’s neck before absorbing all their flesh, life energy, other energy, and soul. The roots targeted everybody. At first, people of Tier 7 and above could protect themselves, but as fewer and fewer people remained alive in the universe, the higher-tier individuals started to fall.
Edward calmly looked at the Soul Fruit forming from this tree. He frowned since he did not only want soul energy. Luckily for him, this type of tree, which was created based on the Chakra Tree, had many varieties created by Neville and many other Herbology Experts.
Edward took out a few more seeds and modified them to infuse their effects on the main tree. He nodded when he saw a few more fruits being cultivated. So, Edward and Morgana waited.
A few heroic individuals tried to target the world itself to stop this madness, but they ended up as fertilizers instead. After a few days, only the Tier 9 entities remained in the universe. Edward had recovered enough to help the tree eliminate these pests.
“We’re the only ones left,” Morgana reported.
“Then, let’s move to the second step,” Edward stated. The tree’s next target was all the matter in the universe. In a matter of hours, the tree disintegrated all planets, stars, systems, and galaxies, before converting them into mana, which would then be purified.
However, this was not the end. The tree’s next target was all the energy in those dimensions. Its roots embedded themselves in all the dimensions of the Dimension Sea before siphoning all the power.
“We have an issue,” Morgana stated.
“Give me a moment,” Edward said as he placed Ra and the Ancient One’s soul inside one of the soul fruits and cast a spell to help them revive.
“What’s the issue?”
“The tree was not designed to handle Tier 10 energy — let alone on such a scale,” Morgana replied before showing him the hidden conditions of the tree. Edward was not surprised. He was only Tier 8 when he took the Chakra Tree back to his homeworld and tasked others to learn and replicate its ability.
Edward projected a few runes from his mind and instructed: “Engrave these Primordial Runes at the tree’s core. Don’t forget to record the data for when we upgrade it.”
“I know.”
While Morgana was working, Edward entered a Life Energy Fruit. He used all his power to rapidly condense a new body. He even had plenty of energy remaining to increase his [Aura] and strengthen himself. Once he had a full-length body, Edward teleported to the biggest soul fruit to heal his injuries.
After achieving Soul Divinity, Edward’s soul was more resistant to attacks, making it harder to be injured. However, once damaged, it was also a challenge to heal. Luckily, the soul fruit provided him with plenty of the purest of soul energy to solve the issue.
The entire process took three months, but Edward was satisfied with the result. And now that he was back in peak health, it was time for his reward. He teleported inside a Mana Fruit and started absorbing all its energy.
Edward’s mana reserves rose at an astonishing rate. By the time he finished, he had 88 manaverse, which is a unit of measurement he created to indicate an energy reserve on par with 88 standard universes.
“Congratulations on becoming an Upper Demon God,” Morgana said.
“Thanks, but this is not enough,” Edward muttered. “Scan me.”
“...There are no issues besides slight instability to your soul due to the sudden rapid increase,” Morgana reported. “Cast a basic fireball.” Edward raised his hand, and a small fireball appeared.
“Your mana control has been reduced to 92%.”
Edward frowned. His control has always been 100%, and that’s just at base form. Once he enters his Mane Sage Mode, his control can increase to 200%, allowing him to cast spells even more powerful than usual at a minimal price.
“Let’s test my law control,” Edward said.
“76%.”
“Even worse, huh,” Edward muttered.
“I recommend you attack a few more timelines and quickly become a King,” Morgana said.
“Wouldn’t that make the situation worse?”
“Yes. According to my calculation, your Mana Control will be reduced to 82% and your Law Control to 56%.”
“Then why?”
“With a normal speed of training, it will take you about 8 years to become a King. However, this approach will enable you to reach that level in a few months. Then, you can spend the rest of the time regaining your control level, which should take you between 3 and 5 years.”
“Destruction and plundering are the fastest way to grow,” Edward nodded. “Alright, let’s do it.” The two entered the Blank Realm, and this universe — which had turned into a cold and lifeless state — turned into a golden light that fused into Edward’s Earth.
Edward sent a message to his council before starting his search for Rank 3 and below timelines to plant his tree. After two months, his energy reserve reached 103 manaverses, which is three more than the 100 requirements for a King.
Finally, he returned to his universe. His first destination was not Earth, but Ra’s Time Protection Force. “Anything to report?”
“Two things first, Sir,” Ra stated. “We’ve imprisoned the Celestials. We wanted to wait until your return to deal with them?”
“Didn’t Odin deal with the situation?”
“He’s the one to suggest we wait for your return,” Ra replied.
“It seems the God King has fully acknowledged your leadership position in the council,” Morgana said.
“It’s understandable. Although he claims he has no problem becoming the war-like version of his younger self, it’s not a simple thing to achieve after becoming enlightened and spending so many years preaching anti-war,” Edward explained. “The battle with his other self was a wake-up call for him, for all of them, to realize what cruelty they will be facing.”
“Some of them are probably still thinking that they don’t need to get their hands dirty,” Morgana sneered.
“That only means they haven’t fully realized the situation we are in,” Edward said calmly.
“What’s the second thing to report?”
“It’s this,” Edward said before showing them a picture of a building.
“The Fantastic Four? They are now in our timeline?” he asked.
