Epic of Summoner: Supreme Summoner System in the Apocalypse Chapter 119: New Mind Skills

—–

After the rank-up of my soul cultivation, not only my soul received benefits but the entirety of my body. After the soul is enhanced enough, its power is shared to the body through Soul Veins, Mana Veins, and so on.

Hence, the more I infuse my own soul energy into my body, the stronger I can grow. This means that the stronger my soul grows, the stronger my body can develop too.

It is an amusing thing to think about… the power of my soul has really skyrocketed to new levels of power by just eating a few Souls from these Mindflayer-like aliens!

Now, I decided to check my stats, as it seems that they had increased. Well, there’s also the increase that I got with each level as well.

…

…

My stats increased by a decent amount by just leveling up, and then the soul cultivation kicked in, increasing each stat by 10k! Except for Mana, which actually increased by 20k… It seems that the soul is the one responsible for storing my Mana, so it makes sense that it increased more when I upgraded my Soul…

I am still concerned about why the Beast Ki is not showing in my stats, but maybe Gaia might know something…

“Oh, that’s because it is added into your own Mana, Beast Ki seems to qualify as a type of essence, even if it is different than Mana, it is added into the Mana Stat. This might happen with every single type of otherworldly essence you can assimilate, it will all show up as Mana within the status…” said Gaia.

“Oh… Even when I can easily differentiate their properties and from where they are coming from?”

“Indeed. And due to this, by leveling you also increased your maximum Beast Ki and cultivated your Beast Orb even without being able to absorb any other Beast Orb, effectively cultivating and enhancing your Realm of Cultivation of your Beast Orb by just leveling up!” said Gaia.

“Well, that’s convenient… Is it the same for Javier and the rest?” I asked.

“Indeed. Even if they are not really talented at magic or mana usage, their mana stat appears to be high due to this reason,” said Gaia.

Interesting… Now I wonder if I can find any other type of otherworldly essence to assimilate and grow even stronger. The Beast Ki brought me a crazy boost to my capabilities.

Sadly, these ugly aliens don’t have any otherworldly essence as their world was essence-less, although it seemed that the high caste of their race was able to use Psionic Energy, a type of energy that is generated by the mind, which let them do things such as Telepathy, Telekinesis, and other things. But they had reached the limits of such power and didn’t seem to have developed it further than these two functions, which were also limited based on their brain size and their lineages.

I suppose that’s why there are a few of the Ability Spheres that they dropped possessing abilities, even when they were pretty much magic-less.

The Ability Spheres they dropped were of a small amount, but they still dropped some after hundreds of them died. It was funny to realize that each ship actually had almost a hundred of these squids inside. I guess that’s why they give so much EXP when I blasted them into the ground…

Anyways, I decided to absorb the Soul Spheres they dropped to increase my stats, and also absorbed the Ability Spheres to get new abilities…

Ding!

[You gained +12.000 Mana, +8.000 Vitality, +4.000 Strength, +5.000 Magic, and +7.000 Dexterity!]

[You learned the following Skills]

[Psionic Energy Arts (A)]

[Telekinesis (A)]

[Telepathy (A)]

[High Technology Engineer (A)]

…

I acquired four skills from them, it seems that this was the best they could offer.

There were around a few more Ability Spheres, and I began to think about what to do with them. Summons or Monster Pets can’t learn Abilities through them, so the best I could do is gift it to Javier and his group… All the Ability Spheres possess Skills I already own, and I can’t absorb them to rank up the skills or something, I can’t use them anymore when I already have the Skill.

Javier and his party also helped in the fight and fought against the large armies of drones, and also ganged on the spaceships, so they cooperated well enough.

Due to that, I decided to give them to Javier and let him distribute them around if they wanted.

Anyways, these new Skills seemed quite useful, Telepathy could let me speak with others from far away, and Telekinesis gave me the ability to move objects with my thoughts by employing psionic energy produced from my brain.

Psionic Energy Arts would help me get used to these energies that had just begun to overflow from my mind out of nowhere the moment I learned the Skills, and I might be able to do more with Telekinesis and Telepathy as I develop my newfound mind powers.

And lastly, the High Technology Engineer Skill seemed to help me comprehend the technology of the aliens, although I need practice and investigation to see how far I can go using such technology.

However, I am not interested in that, I have other plans for the spaceships, and that’s…
