Enveloping the small piles of soil and stones with his soul threads at once, he also enveloped the bushes and the tree individually with his soul threads. With the excitement humming through him, he couldn't wait to start the customization.

More than ten soul threads were simultaneously led out of his body, controlled by him with ease, however, he noticed that binding everything to his soul at once might be a little annoying.

Nevertheless, it was already too late and Jason didn't want to sever his connection to some soul threads because it was a minor inconvenience.

As such, he released the soul energy that levitated around his soul world core, leading them through the soul threads toward their designated goal.

Even though the soil and stones were at the lowest grade, and had only been purchased in order to figure out if it was possible to create a cultivation environment without energy generating objects, Jason had to use most of the soul energy for these two ingredients.

The sheer amount of soil and stones were overwhelming the demand for soul energy that was much lower with higher graded bushes and trees that were bound to his soul, individually.

Jason was astonished about the amount of soul energy that was required to bind simple materials to his soul, but at the same time, he had had an inkling about the high demand.

Thus, after having used up one million soul energy units and spending three hours, everything had been completely bound to his soul.

Contrary to his expectations, he didn't face any issues with the soul binding process, but that was a relief, and nothing to start complaining about.

With everything having been bound, Jason was able to manifest a pentagram below the small pile of materials, moving everything to his soul world at once, where he began to test out all kinds of things.

As he was able to control his soul world to some extent, it was possible for him to evenly distribute the soil to a certain extent, while planting the tree and bushes in it.

Landscaping wasn't his forte so it looked kind of messy, but it was better than nothing.

Jason was still trying to improve his control over the soul world, and using soul threads instead of his hands helped him move everything a little bit easier.

It was still not perfect, but when Artemis, Solaris, and Petri noticed what was happening, they rushed towards the small environment he was trying to create.

Seeing that Jason had already bound everything, they began to help.

Petri used his large body to even out the soil on the ground by bulldozing, while Artemis dug holes in her large form.

After that, Petri coiled his long tail around the bushes in order to lift and then accurately plant them down.

With the remaining soil, they sprinkled it around the stem and covered the roots, allowing the bushes and the tree to stand tall and the roots to have a firm grip.

Meanwhile, Solaris had changed his form, taking on a large humanoid form with which it moved the stones in an orderly manner, placing them to form a cave as per Petri's instructions.

Several hours passed but by working together as a team, everything seemed to work out. His two soulbonds finally had a new home to rest, and the things Jason purchased for Solaris were sent over later.

It shouldn't take long anymore, and rather than going over to the next step of what he wanted to do, Jason began to cultivate while telling his soulbonds to try doing the same inside the soul world.

With mana and primordial energy intertwined objects inside his soul world, this seemed to be possible, but the amount of energy they released was minuscule, and not even close enough to cultivate properly.

Nevertheless, Jason figured out that it was possible to cultivate, and that the only issue was the scarcity of energy!

That was extremely important and a crucial piece of information that caused him to be overjoyed.

Now, he was able to customise his soul world, using high-graded materials to allow his soulbonds to cultivate at a rapid pace.

With cultivation energy generating objects and high-grade common materials like soil, stones which were intertwined with a large quantity and high quality of mana and primordial energy, his plan of transforming his soul world into a cultivation ground, hopefully wouldn't face a problem at all!

'Maybe it's even possible to change a small part of the soul world into an area that has more mana and primordial energy than I can find on Manyr?

With that it would be extremely beneficial to let my soulbonds cultivate there instead of Manyr or other planets that have denser, purer, and more cultivation energies, making it more pleasant to cultivate there'

Thus, Jason was happy as he allowed his soulbonds to leave the soul world to cultivate with him in the open space until the next woman transporting parcels to the City lord's abode would arrive.

Having this in mind, Jason and his soulbonds began to cultivate behind the manor, so as to avoid others that have nothing to do with the City lord from seeing his soulbonds.

Despite the plan, if someone like the City lord, Pera, or Jennifer would see his soulbonds, Jason was still not sure what exactly he would say to explain the situation.

In the end, this was not something worrisome and he had already come up with an explanation, stating that they were his companions and that his soul awakening made it necessary for him to provide them with shelter and care.

Owing to this, the non-existent issue had been solved, and the four of them were able to focus on cultivation.

While the three of them were able to cultivate properly, Solaris was still struggling with his urge to speed up its cultivation progress. It was devouring as many soul crystals as possible in order to create more solidified prismarine crystals.

Unfortunately, this was not what Solaris was supposed to do. The right course of action for it would be to use its own efforts to solidify a prismarine crystal while slowly absorbing the soul crystals when it was required.

After spending three days of cultivation in a fully focused manner, Jason felt fully refreshed as he was notified about the arrival of his parcel.

The mana generating plants had arrived, and Jason didn't even waste time speaking with the delivery woman as he enveloped everything with his mana before rushing back to the manor's backyard.

Nobody annoyed him there, and even after the City lord had seen him with his three soulbonds, she made no comment.

She was of the opinion that certain things shouldn't be forcefully asked, and it would be better to figure out more gradually, without making Jason uncomfortable.

The young man was too mysterious, but at the same time, too talented to make him uncomfortable because of something like the existence of three low-ranked beasts around him.

Thus, Luna decided that he should feel safe and comfortable so that he would protect all of them, rather than fleeing at the first sight of danger.

Protecting him was unnecessary right now, but everyone could tell that he was talented, despite only being at the late 4th Lique stage at the age of 19.

This was what their instincts told them, and their gut feeling had yet to fail them.

How could they have known that their instincts were not only true but that the question of whether Jason would protect them or flee at the sight of danger would arrive much sooner than anyone could have ever expected?
