Suddenly being overwhelmed by dense mana currents, Jason couldn't help but feel that the mana vein was at a much higher quality than he first thought.

Even the broad width it had didn't immediately mean that its quality was exceptional, which was however the case.

As such, Jason was unable to understand how the Mewi had lived inside the valley all this while and been oblivious to the existence of the mana vein.

However, in the end, it didn't really matter because everything seemed to be fixed now, or rather, it was about to be fixed as the recuperation progress of the mana vein had already started.

The surrounding mana was much denser, and Jason assumed that the Mewi wouldn't take long before they would notice that the mana was about to become denser.

Because of that, he could focus on himself.

The entire shelter was overflowing with mana, and by opening his pores to a marginal degree, the mana entered his body at a rapid pace.

It was an uncomfortable sensation because he didn't have to actively absorb in order to be swept through by mana.

Nevertheless, it was also something that could be exploited if used properly.

After releasing both Artemis and Solaris, while unveiling his Celestia aura as well as his own Stigma that simultaneously activated his soubonds' Stigmas, the three of them were able to accelerate their mana circulation speed, as well as the entire cultivation speed by a large amount.

Through this, Jason would be able to enter the 2nd threshold of the Prismar stage in no time. He had already begun to solidify his ninth prismarine crystal during the last two weeks in which he had to absorb the excessive mana from the black flame threads.

That was advantageous, and the only task he had to complete was to finish the solidification process.

Afterward, he could start liquefying a total of 100,000 drops of mana in order to create his first large rotating crystal.

Once that was done, he would be able to rival opponents at the Peak of the Prismar stage.

Unfortunately, Jason doubted that the period before the mana vein had sealed off its injury was enough for him to enter the 2nd threshold of the Prismar stage.

However, that didn't mean he shouldn't give it a try!

Furthermore, he was not alone, and all of his soulbonds would continue to advance, with Artemis receiving the biggest advantage of them all.

Yet, contrary to his expectations, Solaris was even more eager to cultivate than Artemis. After realising that it was allowed to absorb and use the entire mana in its surroundings, as long as it didn't enter the mana vein, it wanted to rival and beat Artemis.

Having been restricted from actively cultivating for the last two weeks, Solaris behaved like a caged bird that was suddenly freed. It didn't hesitate for a single moment as it released its entire suction force that was much stronger than Jason could remember.

When Artemis noticed that Solaris was trying to claim every single trace of mana for itself, she retaliated and decided to fight for the mana as she released her own suction force.

Weirdly enough, this didn't disrupt either of their cultivation because it only increased the influx of mana in the shelter. This competition caused Jason to smile lightly as he sensed the density of the surrounding mana increase.

As such, he was slowly starting to get motivated to cultivate too.

Upon exerting the Mythic Essence technique, his body began to ache heavily which was something Jason was already familiar with.

Yet, instead of receiving less mana to absorb, there was even more mana present in his surroundings, and he began to greedily absorb every little bit of it.

Because his eyes were closed and his entire focus was on absorbing and annexing mana, Jason didn't even notice that his suction force was stronger than that of Artemis and Solaris. Seeing him take away their share, both his soulbonds were forced to focus even more to prevent Jason from snatching all of their mana.

Through this, their cultivation speed increased and the two soulbonds were oblivious to the same.

Meanwhile, Petri and Spyro felt neglected by Jason despite knowing that they were near a mana vein, and not in a universal energy vein, or even close to the Pryr and Spiral vein.

However, they also sensed how much mana Jason, Artemis, and Solaris were actively absorbing, which caused them to feel intimidated as even they shifted their focus on their own cultivation progress.

Through this, the five of them were relentlessly cultivating for the following two months until the mana vein had sealed off its injury, and completely recovered.

In these two months, Jason and his soulbonds had turned into wax statues, unmoving, and solely cultivating as if their life depended on it.

And it was only when the purest form of the mana that had originated from the mana vein was slowly becoming less that Jason, Artemis, and Solaris were regaining their senses.

Their surrounding was still filled with the densest mana, but Jason quickly recalled that he couldn't just cultivate and that he had other responsibilities to take care of.

Because of that, he was unable to stubbornly cultivate, even if he would love to continue cultivating so close to the mana vein, where the purest and densest mana could be found.

He had yet to try relocating the Mewi villages to a different location, bringing all the Mewi together from all the different places.

This was unfortunately not as easy as one could hope, and rather difficult to achieve, which was why Jason required strength, and the intact mana vein.

Releasing his purest Celestia aura, in addition to his Stigma, followed by a fusion with Artemis, his strength would elevate up to multiple ranks, allowing him to become strong enough to overwhelm almost every Mewi.

If that was not enough to convince them, subtly releasing the faint traces of his divine energy should be possible, even if he had never done it before.

Jason knew that it would exhaust him severely, but at the same time, he knew that it was possible to release his divine energy, which was certainly advantageous in certain circumstances.

In the end, Jason was sure that it would be at least possible for him to convince the Mewi to form connections with each other and work as a group in order to be prepared for the battle.

Furthermore, it shouldn't be too difficult to bring every willful person on his side to fight together against Oceanfolk's army.

'Maybe, I can even transmit my knowledge of the Mythic Essence technique to the Mewi...wouldn't that allow them to grow stronger too?'

That was another thought Jason had in his mind.

However, knowing how difficult the technique was to master, and the pain one had to endure while cultivating with the Mythic Essence technique, Jason was not sure if he would be labeled as a fraud or even worse, be hunted.

As such, he decided to postpone the idea of handing out the information of the Mythic essence technique.

Only if all Mewi would trust him enough to the extent that they knew he wanted to help them and had no hidden motives, he would share the technique.

With that in mind, Jason was sure that everything would work out as long as the Mewi did not underestimate the threat of the Oceanfolk. Now that the mana vein had been repaired that would slowly release more and more mana in order to help them return to the old, glorious times, he hoped that they wouldn't slack off.

'I hope everything will work out,' Jason could only hope for the best, not knowing what kind of aftermath the repair of the mana vein was causing.
