AN: I noticed that there was a mistake in chapter 683, with the amount of AP and SP each of the gang had. I did not add the 1880 AP and 1790 SP from killing the Houto and Pan powerhouses event, so it caused a discrepancy with the skills. As such, the correct stats shall be displayed in this chapter.

When the group finally reached the peak of Soul Formation and Nirvana, their stat growth had become even more outrageous than before.

This was a stunning progression of power even crazier than what came the first few times. If this was what would occur every time they reached a new stage of cultivation, they all began to understand why Darius made them cast away the power system of Fallon and adopt that of Pan.
This time, they had doubled their previous growth once again, and none of them earned less than 400 points per stat.
Darius acquired 1200 points to Power and Constitution from the Body Refinement Nirvana stage while he gained 1200 points to Magic and Willpower from the Qi Cultivation Soul Formation.
Gunner gained 800 points to Power and Constitution from the Body Refinement Nirvana stage while he gained 800 points to Magic and Willpower from the Qi Cultivation Soul Formation.
Xela gained 400 points to Power and Constitution from the Body Refinement Nirvana stage while she gained 400 points to Magic and Willpower from the Qi Cultivation Soul Formation.
With Luna gaining 2000 points to Power and Constitution from the Body Refinement Nirvana stage as well as 2000 points to Magic and Willpower from the Qi Cultivation Soul Formation.
Now that they had reached the peak of Soul Formation, their speedy cultivation ground to a halt. This was because their cultivation level had technically caught up with their actual level.
The True Supreme System is not like that older trash system that forcefully hampered and hindered the growth process of its hosts, forcing them to rely solely on skill points and ability points generated by it to survive.
This one allowed full organic growth, so Darius and his Branded Servants could accumulate as much power from as many systems as they wanted. However, in the end, what held them back was actually the laws of Faust itself.
The old Supreme System would ignore the Laws of Faust and rewrite them where it could causing and preventing Darius from truly integrating with the world.
The new system integrated with Faust and allowed Darius to enjoy all the benefits with very few detriments, and this was the biggest one. Since his system recorded level was 46, it meant he was around the peak of the Dao Infusion Realm.
The same went for Gunner and Xela, though they were all able to push their actual cultivation to the peak of Dao Perfection, which should be level 50 according to the system.
Luna was even worse, at level 37, and had forcefully reached this stage only thanks to the situation of her family members, so they were all locked from breakthrough and entering Nihility or the Soul Merging stage.
However, this was fine to Darius. He and his Branded Servants finally came out of seclusion which had lasted almost 4 months. In these four months, a lot had happened all across Faust.
Queenstar had made progress in ruining Ludo, Miranda was giving the demons of Armadon a hard time, Houto and Pan were full of rioting, anarchy, and killing, and Kiel was in uproar since the Five Apprentices were about to start their territory war.
Apart from Fallon and Unyris, and maybe Gravitas and Elysium, everywhere else was flame with trouble. Gravitas and Elysium didn't really count at the moment because both were incapacitated.
Darius was thinking of what to do next when he noticed a prompt from the True Supreme System.

Huh. It seemed that somewhere along the line while they were cultivating, the disciples with top-tier talent and natural souls from their soulless parents had been shooting through the Ranks.
Well, that was not surprising. They had the best possible resources on Faust to cultivate with, the best environment, the best Spirit Roots, and the best possible comprehension a native would have while starting out.
They were now mostly at the beginning of Nascent Soul, comprehending the Spirituality of the world using Darius's transmuted technique, so they didn't have to harm their souls just yet.
The reason the lads were as fast as Darius and co was also because Darius and his group dual cultivated body and Qi, while the disciples only cultivated Qi.
They could cultivate body at any time in the future without any repercussion, and that was what most powerhouses did. Normally some sects would stop the disciples and let them do tasks or mission to accumulate experience and gather their own resources, but Darius didn't bother.
He let the disciples continue to cultivate and strive to reach at least, the True Immortal Realm before they could become useful. As for Shanks, Elijah, Nicholas, and co, they were still at the Core Formation Realm at this time.
They did not have the True Supreme System to just dump points into the skill and actually had to physically sit down and comprehend them. It went to show how great their comprehension was if they could comprehend and then cultivate to reach Golden Core in such a short time.
Darius initially thought this was the end of it, but who knew he was about to receive a huge and pleasant surprise that caused him to smile for a long while?
[Congratulations, Darius Stone. You have completed the World Quest: Plunge Faust into Chaos
Rewards: 300,000 True Coins, 'Chaos Bringer' Title, 'Lord of Chaos' Job. .]

Darius felt great exhilaration, because with the reception of so many True Coins, he could finally do two things he had always planned to. The first was to purchase a Travel Key which cost 100,000 True Coins and enter the realm of Phantasmagoria, where the Spirits of Eternity Swords lived!
The second was to finally begin his full takeover plan for Faust since he could now return the world to Peace and Prosperity!
