Exerting the Kanadi of a Primordial technique caused Jason to feel a little bit dissatisfied.
Not only were the costs of a single practice extremely high, but the gains he received were not as per his expectations.
Instead, given his current situation, Jason knew that his strength had to increase as quickly as possible.
Because of that, he switched from practicing the Kanadi of a Primordial that was a technique with long-term gains to the new cultivation technique he had procured.
After understanding the first stage of the technique without too many difficulties, Jason could start practicing it.
He didn't waste any time and used his brain that had been refined and enhanced over and over again in order to gain the most benefits.
Having a refined and enhanced brain helped him easily cultivate for an entire week. He was slowly getting more comfortable in the way the technique demanded him to circulate the mana inside his body.
He was still far away from perfection and his movements were still crude, which was something Jason found to be ridiculous considering that he had always been good at controlling mana.
However, with the new cultivation technique, he had to control more than 20 different streams of mana inside his body that had to be circulated through him with extreme precision.
As if that wasn't a daunting task, the technique presented another hurdle in front of him by requiring the amount of mana to be exactly the same in every single mana stream.
Through this, the more mana he absorbed the more his cultivation accelerated, moving it through his body.
Unfortunately, the speed at which he could cultivate for now was little in comparison to the maximum limit of the Divine Maestra technique's first stage.
Despite that, Jason could increase his cultivation pace exponentially as long as he remained fully focused.
As such, at the end of the week, he had almost reached half of the required liquefied mana drops he needed in order to start compressing the dome crystal. Once that was done, it would allow him to be at the Peak of the Prismar stage, solely based on his cultivation base!
His strength was much higher than his cultivation base, but Jason knew that both could have been much higher if he were to stop bothering about maintaining a high weaponry, and martial art, or affinity proficiency.
But that was important because he had to make use of his strength with proper techniques. Otherwise, his cultivation base and brute strength could be high, but his true strength would reduce drastically over time.
With that in mind, Jason stopped cultivating after a week because he sensed that his soulbonds were finally waking up after almost a month had passed.
Their hibernation was over and they had finally adjusted to the enhancements they had undergone.
In the end, every single trait of their entire being had been enhanced, whether it were their cultivation veins, their vessel, their physique, and much more.
Thus, Jason was excited to see them once again, which made him instinctively open his soul world to the outside.
It was only a few moments later that Sira, Spyro and Solaris emerged from the soul world, before they clung to Jason, claiming their usual spots as before.
Following that Artemis and Petri followed suit in their smallest form and they moved towards their old, familiar position like usual.
In the beginning, Jason didn't notice much of a difference because Spyro and Solaris could change their form whenever they wanted.
However, in the case of Artemis and Petri, their appearance looked much more refined, sharp, and deadlier than before. Meanwhile, Sira's silver emblems with golden outlines on the back had grown a little bit, looking as if it was attached to her Stigma.
Despite their outer appearance having changed only a little bit, the outer side of his soulbonds was not as important as their inside!
Jason felt tremendous changes within his soulbonds, which made him smile at them proudly.
As such, he spent some time with them inside the small room he had lodged before he began to distribute the techniques he had purchased.
It was not easy to make his soulbonds read, but he wanted them to use their improved intelligence in order to do something useful with it.
He had successfully distracted Artemis with a technique about the ice affinity, and how it could be used properly, keeping her occupied for hours.
Meanwhile, Spyro received a few more techniques the Spiral path used, followed by Solaris receiving a fire affinity-based technique that was similar to the Dragon fire, yet more versatile.
On the other hand, Petri received a technique that was based on the enhancement of curses which was something that interested Jason too.
Only Sira didn't receive a single technique because techniques with blessings were rare to find, and not that useful for the Sacred Squirrel's specific blessings.
But she wasn't going to sit idle as Jason had thought of something he wanted her to do.
As such, by allowing Sira to enter his mana core for the first time, he wanted to use her blessed energy to activate the foretelling blessing, which worked rather easily.
Instead of causing any trouble, the blessed energy was smoothly transferred from the Sacred Squirrel inside his body, before it was used to activate the foretelling blessing.
Afterward, he used a single thought to let the foretelling blessing know what he was eager to find out.
[Where is Jennifer?]
His question was crystal clear, and after a large amount of blessed energy was used up, Jason's eyes turned milky. Numerous pictures flashed through his mind of something that would occur in the future.
The blessing was unable to tell him what was happening right now, which Jason noticed too late. But it was not problematic because he was able to figure out where she was.
And oddly enough it was not even that far away!
In fact, he knew the place she was hiding in, which confused him a little bit because he didn't recall telling her where exactly it was located.
It was the elemental crystal cave in which he had been teleported when he had emerged on Manyr. According to the foretelling blessing, she was being hunted by strong beings at the Ascendion stage that had found clues of her being near the area.
Thus, Jason couldn't help but feel a little bit helpless about the situation. Only now did he notice something specific about the foretelling blessing he hadn't known beforehand.
It might also be a coincidence, but it would be an extremely rare one because the pictures that flashed through Jason's mind were from the next full moon!
This felt weird because the next full moon was still three weeks away, and if he was fast enough, it might even be possible for him to reach the location during that period.
However, in order to achieve this, he had to start moving.
With that in mind, he retracted his soulbonds into his soul world who were intrigued about the techniques they had begun to read, only to be pulled away by Jason.
This annoyed them, but instead of being disgruntled, they sensed how serious he was.
Thus, they remained quiet, and Sira returned to the soul world.
Normally Jason would allow Artemis to enter his mana core now because he would be able to fly much faster using her wings.
But instead of doing so, he told her to cultivate as much as possible, knowing that a big battle was going to start in three months. Thus, it would be best if she were to reach the highest possible combat prowess before that.
Meanwhile, he told his other soulbonds to do the same, before he left the city. Simultaneously, he kept practicing the movement sequences of the [Hermes Celeration] technique that allowed him to increase his speed by manifold once he mastered it.
'I will be fast enough!!' He could only think, hoping for the best as he rushed in the direction of the elemental cave!
