Frank closed his eyes as he delved into meditation.

He began to feel the veins of mana flowing through his entire body, which he was slowly building through his Mana Core Cultivation, and this technique he was using was something that Gwendolyn and Vheslia had taught to him, with some insight from the Gods (who actually did not cultivate at all but knew a few things).

Frank now needed to enhance the quality of his Mana Core with this process of extending his Mana through all the veins across his body.

These were named Mana Veins, and enhanced the use of Mana to greater levels, helping it flow through the body.

Magus who developed Mana Veins were able to control mana swiftly and easily, the chanting time they needed to conjure any Spell was reduced tremendously as more veins were developed.

In a way, these veins had the form of magical inscriptions that emerge within magic circles, by making more and more and filling one's body with them, magic circles' creation can be shortened by using the mana veins as the inscriptions themselves.

Although Frank was unique in that he was able to conjure Spells without mana circles and instantaneously through his System Trait.

In games, you usually do not have to chant any crap, and you can just conjure a spell with the click of a button.

The same thing happens to Frank, his System converts him into a game-like character, so even spells become easy to conjure just by willing it and designing a target with his vision.

However, Mana Veins did not stop being useful just because he does not need to conjure magic to use it.

They were, after all, another new way to enhance his physical body.

After all, one of Frank's goals, aside from reviving his parents was to also enhance his physical body to the point that it could one day take into all the power hidden within his Infinite Origin.

He exercised every day to make his muscles stronger, let his subordinates hit him even with magic and physical techniques, and also covered himself in the elements, forging his body ruthlessly.

Aside from this, he was now developing Mana Veins, something that could be developed at any Stage of Cultivation, but that was often the preparation for the REAL Mana Veins, which would begin to emerge at Rank 6.

As he was now Rank 5 Initial Stage, it was a good plan to begin creating the Initial Mana Veins to set up the ground for the True Mana Veins that will emerge at Rank 6, which he will have to nourish and train.

Frank poured not only Mana but small quantities of Divine Power originating from his soul into his Mana Veins, slowly nourishing his flesh, blood, bones, skin, and internal organs.

Slowly but steadily, the rivers of golden-colored ethereal substance, the divine power, and mana, flowed through his body in harmony…

Frank was feeling like he was slowly reaching a greater level of power, as his Mana Core began to glow faintly the more he repeatedly made his energies flow through his Mana Veins and the parts of his body.

This technique was named Divine Energy Nourishment and was designed by Judith long ago to maintain Divine Energy and even nourish one's body and soul with it.

However, Frank was still too novice with this power, and could only do it very faintly with only his physical body.

Even with the experience he got from the Gods' memories, his body, and soul still needed to get used to all of this by themselves, inserting himself with false experiences might even make him commit mistakes, so he started from the very beginning to do this.

It could be said that he had gathered a lot of his own experience through the practice of this technique through this month and two weeks.

Frank was hoping for his body to reach the level of Demigod Body at some point, and the Gods told him that he needed to accustom his own physical flesh to the burning power of divine energy, a power so strong that it is capable of burning and turning into ashes any mortal flesh that it touches.

That Frank is capable of letting small rivers of it flow through his physical and mortal flesh already said that he was not normal at all.

It was a good thing that he was not even a Human anymore, as he was a Dracolich Progenitor and also a Stargazer.

Stargazers were considered a unique race only for himself, which was born when he unlocked a tiny piece of his power as an Overseer.

It is a race that enhances all of his physical and magical abilities above superhuman levels, and alongside the Undead characteristics of the Dracolich Progenitor Race and also the Dragon Bloodline within it, he was capable of making his mortal flesh resist such intense power, in smaller quantities.

The golden rivers of divine energy and the azure rivers of mana flowed through his body, nourishing it even more.

Frank quickly began to move these energies into his chest, nourishing his Rank 5 Mana Core over and over again.

Even Frank's own Mana Core was already strange, as it had been shattered and reformed many times, evolving, and changing, it was now named Arcane Core, and it seemed to be unique even amongst other Mana Core users such as his wife Gwendolyn and the others.

Talking about the others, Gwendolyn had recently hit Peak Stage in Rank 4 Mana Core, and the rest were around Middle Stage and Upper Stage.

By hunting the Rank 4 Mana Cores within the monster's corpse of Orb's Dungeon, everyone was able to utilize them to raise their cultivation a lot, but for Frank, Rank 4 Mana Cores gave too little energy, to the point that he would need billions to get to Rank 6… And such a quantity was impossible to get when Rank 4 Monsters would usually appear in quantities of 20-30 within the Dungeon per day…

He needed to hunt Rank 5 Monsters.

Or… cultivate by himself using materials and techniques, as the people of this world do.

Although he imagined that it would be hard, it was not as much, because Frank was not normal at all, to begin with.

By using his Divine Soul, he hastened the process a lot, and by using the corpses of monsters and crafting potions with them using Vheslia's help as a talented Alchemist, he was slowly yet steadily breaking through this progression wall…

However, not only monster corpses but the equipment that had game-like stats was also used to make consumable items. By using his Creation Skill combined with Vheslia's amazing talent in Alchemy, Frank was able to produce new and better items by refining the Mana Cores and also the Magic Stones dropped from monsters that appeared inside of Hunting Domains, which were not originally consumable, but after breaking them into dust, they were.

Like this, he and Vheslia produced "Super Cultivation Potions" of various types, each one having the power to enhance a different area of the body.

Any item comparable to them that he could buy in the APP Shop cost way too much, and after renewing all of his Skills, Frank was rather low in APP Points.

However such special potions took time to make, around five days or so, so it was not something instantaneous.

Even with the strength to fight incredibly weakened Gods, Frank still had a long way to go and improve, and one of his dilemmas is that he could not hasten this process as much…

But he had progressed by leaps and bounds for a while, so hitting a progression wall only seemed but fitting, so he accepted it and decided to advance slowly yet steadily.

Vheslia had made him a Super Cultivation Potion for his muscles, for his bones, for his skin, and his Mana Core Quality through these weeks, which were all necessary for him to breakthrough, as not only Mana Cores needed to be enhanced, but at later levels of cultivation the Magus need to forge their bodies strong enough to take on the power of their own Mana Cores if they didn't want to be blown into bits when their Mana Cores improved in quality…

And even as a Stargazer and Dracolich Progenitor with Divine Soul… this could perfectly happen to Frank too.

Even more, it had an even bigger risk as Frank's own Mana Core was particularly stronger and even more potent, if he was not careful, the Mana Core could actually explode and consume his entire body with it… killing him.

And because his father told him that his weak mortal body was tied to his soul, he would not be able to raise as an undead with another physical vessel, maybe if his body died and he became a zombie, yes, that was possible, but not if his entire body were to be destroyed, his very soul would begin to explode as it could not be able to find a fitting vessel anymore, and all the Overseer power within his Origin Core would explode, generating an enormous Black Hole that would consume everything.

With great power came a lot of risks.

The stronger Frank grew, the more dangerous would become his soul and body, and the easier it would be for him to slip off and ending up blowing himself into bits due to not being able to take in all the immense power he had…

But as he took things calmly, he managed to get to this stage at last.

His Mana Core began to resonate, as Frank felt a new surge of power shrouding his entire body!
