357 Power Leveling!

Noah sent a telepathic message towards the Emperor Penguin and the other Harbingers that were still in the underworld. They were confused at this message but followed it nonetheless as they left behind the things they were doing and soon began appearing in the underground layer of the Spiritual Land where a red portal stably stood.

The figure of the Emperor Penguin became ecstatic as it sensed the familiar energy signature of the master of the Spiritual Land, his figure teleporting to the location where Noah stood with Barbatos and the Imperial Phoenix as his beak snapped open in stupefaction.

"Master!"

The arrogant penguin was shocked because he had just been observing his master rain down destruction in a Prime World not long ago, and knew he should be surrounded by the powerful forces of Celestials at all times!

Noah nodded towards the penguin with a smile as the others gradually came in, those that were training in the Time Space of the Spiritual Land and those that were taking down Infernals in the far distance all returning as he repeated his circumstances yet again.

"Successfully infiltrated a crazy powerful force while picking up skills that even allow you to make a clone. We have to celebrate!"

The boisterous Kazuhiko returned as he gave Noah a bear hug and called for a celebration before anything else, Noah pondering for a bit before agreeing as he would relax his mind a bit before carrying out the stupendous upgrades.

"Little fish, can you prepare something for us? It's been a while since I tasted something remotely as good as the food you whip up."

Barbatos looked at him with shining eyes as she called out, causing a smile to form on Noah's face as he looked back to the Rank A [Cook] he had not put to use in a while. He acquiesced to their requests as his figure teleported into the seas of his homeworld to quickly grab some delicacies in the form of deep-sea fish. He quickly popped into the Beast World as well, grabbing the Frozen Queen and the Shadow Guard that was always with her thereafter!

The process didn't take him longer than 5 minutes as he returned to the Spiritual Land, numerous deep sea fish in his [Expansive Space], and the flustered face of Queen Adelaide accompanying him. 

A fire was soon set ablaze as Noah looked at the [Cook] skill, putting 5 Skill Points into the Rank A ability just for fun before he began, a blazing fire erupting thereafter as the aroma of food that would make Rulers jealous spread throughout the Spiritual Land. 

In under half an hour, numerous well roasted meats were ready for devouring, even the Calamities of the Sea feeling no guilt as they smelled the fragrant aroma seeping out of the glistening deep sea fish rotating above the simmering fire.

"Dig in!"

Noah called out as he used [Architecture] to create a simple styled outdoor dining area where he laid out the numerous delectable dishes, the many beings around him digging in thereafter as the next few hours were spent in bliss enjoying dishes cooked by a Rank A skill that was enhanced with Skill Points.

It was a surreal experience for Noah as his original body was nearing the 7th Celestial Star, returning to the abode of the Celestials as another piece of him was somewhere else doing something he did not expect to be doing a few hours ago!

He smiled at the crazy possibilities that the skill trees could bring to life as he enjoyed himself for the next few hours, the taste buds of the clone being no less than the original as he relished on his own creations.

He wrapped up this brief relaxation period in a few hours as his gaze shone while looking at the numerous beasts lined up in front of him. 

The Emperor Penguin was at the peak of the Saint Rank, his brothers and sisters already entering the same rank in the past month as more than enough beasts had already met the requirement of upgrading to the 7th Tier Spiritual Land. 

But...he wouldn't stop there!

He waved his hands towards the beasts as numerous Saint and Void Rank [Core]s appeared before their eyes, one of the few positive things coming out of the Magus World showing itself into the eyes of everyone around him as they looked on in shock.

Others were simply shaking their heads deprecatingly as what they knew to be the norm continued to be destroyed by this single being in front of them. 

The beasts wasted no time as they followed the commands of the Spiritual Land Master, beginning to consume the cores right away as the dense essence of the Spiritual Land continued to converge around them.

RUMBLE!

Noah watched on from the sides with careful eyes as he observed every minuscule change. In under an hour, the Emperor Penguin was the first to finish consuming numerous Void Cores as his rank was finally pushed from Saint and into the Void!

The process continued on for another half a day as one by one, the beasts gradually rose to the peak of the Saint Realm and then consumed more and more of the provided cores until they broke through into the Void Rank.

This number continued until it passed 10, where Noah was confident it would be more than enough for the requirements of the upgrade as he nodded his head with an accomplished gaze. The requirements to upgrade the Spiritual Land into the 7th Tier was to have more than 5 beasts step into the Saint Realm, and he was sure the upgrade into the 8th Tier would be similar, if not the number being slightly higher. 

Looking at the unstable realms of the beasts that just broke through, and the many more still continuing the process of absorbing Cores and pushing their ranks up unceasingly, Noah's face hardened as he breathed out, feeling the connection with the main body and the immense mana it was connected to, his close simply acting as another limb as it called forth this bubbling mana while he initiated the upgrade of the Spiritual Land into the next tier.

This time, he would not just stop at one upgrade, but would also continue with the next one soon after! 

His gaze looked ahead into the far future as he pondered the results of these upgrades. He knew the 7th Tier would unlock the [Law Space], something he had yet to wrap his mind around on exactly how crazy it would be. But, what would be the prize for upgrading all the way to the 8th Tier?
