Talking about Celis, he obviously wanted to cultivate nonstop. But since he couldn't do it, he had another very important job during the two months he did nothing every year. Celis was collecting countless types of plants and spreading them all over the territories. He was basically the sole responsible for the growth of plant life in the Soul Gem Planet.
Through his roots, which were spreading further and further around the planet, he checked the situation of the areas he had to start working. 'Hum... considering the positioning of the fake sun, this area is better to be left alone. It is pretty much a desert already. Trying to grow trees and smaller plants here will be too troublesome. I'll keep just a few of my roots in this place, just in case. Besides, Kentucky can bring some desert-type Demon Beasts later on if he passes near such a place.'
His attention then moved underwater. As a World Swallowing Cedar, his roots simply don't distinguish between dry and wet terrain. Everything was considered valid for absorption in his race. 'Seems like the underwater plants are doing fine. I still haven't got the chance to spread them around to more than 10% of the locations, but I can only do so much with the time I have. We are lacking a lot of sea demon beasts and normal fish as well, so it isn't a priority at the moment.'
As Celis did all of that, he couldn't help but remember how much he had changed from his previous self. 'Back then, I almost absorbed a planet dry of all its life to the point the Zasfins had to seal me down. Now here I am, helping a planet to develop instead of sucking it empty. Well, that's basically because I'm provided with more than enough energy to cultivate, so I don't need to do such a thing...'
'Rean and Roan would get me killed if I tried such a thing anyway. Hahahaha!' Just like that, Celis continued his work for the next few days.
Of course, the minute that the resting time was over, he immediately messaged Rean and Roan. 'Time to cultivate. Let's go, go, go!'
Rean held a pair of chains in his hand, one of the weapons he had forged during the past few days. It was a Middle-Level Divine piece of Equipment and was extremely close to being a High-Level one. 'Sigh... I was so close. But I guess I have to go back to cultivate before continuing my blacksmith training.' He then threw those chains into a corner and left the Blacksmith Workshop.
Roan, too, was working at that moment. He wasn't training with his newfound Weapon Aura. Instead, he knew that the time to resume cultivating was getting close, so he went back to the Alchemy Workshop instead. One of the reasons why the twins' group cultivation speed was that fast was not only the Divine Origin Energy Cores but also the pills that aided the cultivation progress.
*Tssssss...*
Roan opened the lid of his cauldron, looking at the steaming hot medicinal liquid inside. He then added the last materials of the pill and closed it again. Using the Control Cauldron, which had a pinpoint heating ability, Roan controlled the temperature to reach exactly 313.7 degrees. It then began to tremble as if the medicinal liquid and energy inside were going out of control.
Yet, Roan wasn't surprised or concerned. A sky-blue energy came out of his body, sipping inside the cauldron as if there was no barrier between the outside and the inside. The trembling quickly stopped as the cauldron turned quite docile. 'This Sky Energy is truly something else. The Stellar Energy fused in this energy is capable of strengthening the resistance of the medicinal liquid, allowing me to use a much higher temperature. Once I add the elements, it can form much better pills.'
The Control Cauldron suddenly shined with a red glow while Roan operated the concoction. That glow increased for a few seconds, but the cauldron continued calm. Finally, the glow disappeared as the lid was unlocked.
Inside, there was now a batch of twelve pills, all at the Divine Middle Level. 'Another twelve Elemental Latent Cultivation Pills with an added Yin and Yang Energy effect. The medicinal herbs used in them were also very good. Celis truly did an amazing job helping me with the medicinal garden.'
Roan quickly put those pills inside a specially-made vial that prevented them from losing their medicinal properties. Following that, he turned everything off and cleaned the Alchemy Workshop until it was spotless. He had heard Celis's nagging about going back to cultivate, but he didn't care and finished everything there before coming out.
He then used his connection to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm to teleport the vials to Rean and Celis, as the pills were effective for both humanoids and demons. 'Same thing as always. Take one pill and spend the next four to five months digesting it while cultivating. They should be able to increase our cultivation speed by 15% or so.'
Rean and Celis nodded, quickly swallowing one pill each. Roan, of course, did the same and took one pill. That last batch of pill concocting was only one of the various he had already made, so there was plenty for them to use for the next few decades. Let's not forget that time flies fifty times faster in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm at the moment.
That was how things worked in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Cultivate, train other skills while resting from cultivation, then cultivate again after resting. The twins would spend hundreds of years inside the Dimensional Realm, so they truly had time to work on a lot of things.
Just like that, a complete twenty years passed in the outside world. Today, Kentucky came back and entered the Dimensional Realm as well. That's because they were going to enter the Late Stage of the Elemental Space Realm!
