Chapter 890 Final Decision
While his wives were absorbing their last remaining Soul Bones to complete their Spirit Bodies, Lothur was also absorbing his last bone and all the Immortal Crystals he had collected over the years.
He used the system one last time to absorb these essences easily, knowing the system would disappear once he finished absorbing everything.
In short, the system only worked on people of a lower level than the system's creator. Once Lothur reached level 27, the essence that had been with him for the past few years would disappear.
As everyone watched him and his wives absorb their last bones, a relatively simple and quick process given their current characteristics, something changed in the environment.
Six rays of golden light appeared from the sky until they reached the six of them. At the same time, the elements and free spiritual energy in the background condensed onto them.
Certain elements and free energy in the unreachable part of the atmosphere or the ground left their positions and were drawn to where Lothur and his women were.
They didn't intend to turn this area into a sacred land of cultivation. But without knowing it, their advancement to level 27 was blessing this place with the elemental and energetic attraction of their bodies.
Whatever was compatible with them in the environment soon began to evolve. Plants began to change their classifications and qualities. The lake, which had been just a normal place, became a place that one only needed to enter to purify the impurities in one's body. Meanwhile, the various fruits of the plants on the nearby trees could awaken bloodlines and physiques.
Amidst this, the observers could feel the last of their talent bottlenecks disappearing, and the path to their cultivation reopened.
Not everyone there could absorb new Soul Bones or even any bones, given their race or full Spirit Bodies. Some were practically stuck at their current levels.
But when they saw those six people's quantitative and qualitative development, they felt that their talents and aptitudes had greatly improved.
Mabel emotionally saw all this, feeling happy for the growth of her daughters and her husband but already missing them, even though they were still ahead of her.
Amid her tears, she hugged her stomach as she watched her daughters float higher and higher as golden inscriptions appeared around their bodies.
Amidst this, she saw something strange in her vision, which showed the names, levels, and attributes of those women who had already reached level 27 of soul and body cultivation.

'What is this? What are these numbers?' She asked herself without understanding.
Then she heard Lothur's voice. 'Mabel, this is my parting gift to you. Call it the system. It will accompany you while you take care of our son here in Concordia.
Through it, you'll be able to understand better the characteristics of humans, beasts, and resources, but you'll also be able to talk to a mental copy of me.
We won't be able to communicate once I leave this place, but I will be aware of everything you want me to see. This will also be useful for you to find me once you've absorbed the Seven Singularities.'
'Huh?' She closed her eyes and saw a shade of Lothur forming in her Soul Sea.
'I will leave something similar for our son to help him on his journey. It will also help him to follow us in the future.' The system Lothur had just created, something with his voice and appearance, said it all for her.
'So that's what you told me.' She became even more emotional but very grateful to him. 'Thank you, Lothur. I hope to see you very soon.'
She then opened her eyes to see Lothur finishing his advance.
This young man saw his status for the last time before the system that was in him completely dissipated.

'It seems the system can't quantify physical and mental attributes beyond 200,000 points.' He wasn't surprised, as he knew his attributes and EVF points were completely different and didn't share the same rule.
As he watched the system screen disappear forever, he felt his 10 Soul Bones complete his Spirit Body while a strange sensation called him towards the sea.
But this sensation was very different from the one Mabel had felt when she had completed her Spirit Body years ago. Since Lothur had achieved this while he had advanced to level 27, he felt something different.
'It looks like the senior was right. It would have been a big mistake if I had tried to go to sea before this breakthrough.' He realized the same thing as his wives when he saw that he could have died if he hadn't waited for the breakthrough.
Now that he had reached level 27, he could practically feel the whole world!
As he scanned the sea, he realized that there was a strange kind of spiritual boundary around the sea, which looked like the borders of the realm, where anyone who passed a certain point would find the chaos of space without many paths to follow.
In short, the oceans of this world marked the boundaries between this world and what lay beyond.
Below level 27, anyone attempting such a journey would die!
His wives also realized this, and one of them asked. "What are we going to do now? For that matter, why are we floating?"
"I think we have to make a choice now," Lothur said as he felt someone of similar strength to himself approaching them.
"Indeed." The ancient creator of the system appeared before them, smiling as he finally saw the people he had been expecting. "You will have to make a decision soon... Anyway, I don't have much time to talk to you now. Depending on your choice, we may see each other again in the future, or perhaps never.
Lothur, congratulations on reaching the level of Eternal Being. The same goes for you ladies, haha." He said as he smiled and looked at the women.
Then he commented to Lothur. "You have done well, Lothur. You managed to bring a lot of company with you. That's good. It will help you in the future."
Lothur's women looked at each other doubtfully as he frowned. "What does that mean? And what is an Eternal Being? Is that the name of the 6th stage?"
The system creator laughed and said. "You will find out soon. Good luck on your journey from here, Lothur. Whatever you choose, I hope you succeed. The dangers are not over just because you've reached this level, so be careful."
With these words, the man disappeared as quickly as he had appeared, while Lothur and his wives could not follow him as they were drawn into the sky by the golden light.
"What's happening? Where are we going?" Elke wondered.
"I don't know. It seems to have something to do with the choice he mentioned." Viktoria wondered.
Just as they were thinking and talking about it, they suddenly saw the bluish sky disappear into a dark place where many stars were on the edge of what seemed to be the night sky.
Below them, they could see a place that looked like a painting, a work of art about a great world.
This painting didn't seem to be motionless, and there was a lot of energy coming from it.
A huge man standing above them materialized in the air, as they felt their hearts pounding in their chests.
"I know you're shocked, but this is a critical moment for all of you. Now you have to choose something that will never change, no matter what happens from now on." This man spoke while everyone in Lothur's group felt pressured.
They had just advanced to the highest level they thought existed, but out of nowhere, they had come face to face with a being that seemed much stronger than them!
'Shit! Who is that?' Anneke broke out in a cold sweat, seeing that the cultivation path didn't have the limits they thought it did.
"Who am I?" The man smiled as he read her mind. "I will only answer you once. I am the God in charge of this space where your world is. The one you saw before me is the Immortal in charge of your world, my subordinate."
Gulp!
"What?" They all opened their mouths in shock.
"Now you have to make a choice." He said as he gestured, changing his surroundings to show things compatible with what he had to say. "Either you become Immortals, or you become Gods. There is no other choice. Make your choice."
"What does that mean, Senior? How can we choose without knowing anything else?" Lothur asked.
"Immortals are, as their name implies, undying. They have infinite life and cannot be killed even by the Gods. However, they are the lowest level of Celestial ceres. They work as mere caretakers of worlds like yours.
Gods, on the other hand, have no limits and can continue to grow spiritually. They are the highest level of Celestial beings, those who create or destroy life in the known universe, the sovereigns who dictate the rules of nature. They are free to do as they please and seek the pinnacle.
Gods, however, can be killed, even though they have infinite life expectancy.
Now you must decide. Would you rather be janitors or creators of the universe?"
