Ben asked me something that I expected. Of course, after knowing that the thing inside of her has been trying to attack her soul, why shouldn't she want to learn how to strengthen her soul and become strong-willed?

But how can we even make a person strong-willed? It is hard, and probably a gradual process that takes years.

But at the very least I can help her strengthen her soul and be more confident.

If that thing recovers again, I will help her too, this is why I want her to stay at my side through this whole ordeal.

Now that I discovered Soul Cultivation, I have to practice my new Skill related to it and figure out the secrets of Soul Cultivation, the powers of the Soul, and how to control my Soul or strengthen it.

I can't help but be a bit excited, finding new power and training it to find ways to use it in the future is quite fun, even in the situation we are in.

For a small glimpse of time, I imagine being able to somehow split my soul and create clones or something, or even insert my split souls into weapons or even a golem made of ice!

Though, could I even be able to do such an insane thing? I am not a necromancer or something to be able to control my soul to insanely like that… yet.

For the rest of the day, we decided to train with Benladann over many physical exercises with her axe techniques, and then magic cultivation with the usual Group Cultivation…

[Day 65]

Phantom Body is an interesting Skill. It helps me expand a part of my soul into what is called a Phantom.

When I activate the Skill, a little blue-colored, almost transparent noodle comes out of my body.

This noodle is a tendril of my soul, which is named phantom I guess. This power comes from my soul, and it could be said to be an extension of it.

I don't know if I should cut it to see if I can manipulate it, I feel like I would only grow weakened.

For now, I simply want to experiment and also level up the Skill.

Oh, right, today we woke up early as usual. And there wasn't much news, it was a rather monotonous day as always, or well, a monotonous morning.

But each day we train and cultivate, so we slowly power up, not a single day is wasted.

By constantly checking the stats of the wolves, I've also come out with some conclusions and questions inside of my mind over the comparison between my own power, the system that helps me gain stats, and the cultivation Ranks of Mana Cores.

Initial Stage Wolf's stats usually range between 70-120, with strength being their strongest asset.

After going into the Middle Stage, their stats might go up to 150-250, strength and dexterity are what they're best at.

Then at Upper Stage, like Frost, their stats average around 300-500, that's a big jump, isn't it?

Frost is particularly stronger though, and his stats seem way higher than any other wolf in his realm, so I guess there are often differences in stats even if their cores match the cultivation.

The same thing occurred to me, where I sometimes matched the cultivation of other creatures, yet my stats were slower, although all the ones I fought were always a realm higher, so I was always at a disadvantage actually.

The only time this was different was Benladann, but her power didn't come from the mana core itself but the overpowered Mold on its full splendor. Though I am sure that the mold can grow even stronger through the cultivation of her mana core.

So, in resume, albeit Mana Cores are the greatest source of power for a being, it doesn't mean everything, rules don't seem as strict to Monsters, especially because there are special ranks or evolutions between them, such as the Kings, Leaders, Emperors, and so on.

All these types of monsters might match their relatives on cultivation rank and stages, but they are often stronger even if they are.

And this difference and "rule-breaking" capability is enhanced when we apply stuff as crazy as Unique Skills into the equation.

To summarize it in simple words, we are broken.

Ladan's Mold Unique Skill is insanely powerful, and Unique Skills seem to be above any type of power in this world, such as my overpowered Winter Magic, which I have been developing a lot lately.

My System too, it helps me eat Mana Cores and gain stats, something that other monster can't do, they actually just evolve naturally by eating monster flesh and plants, which are all cultivation materials, and by naturally absorbing the mana of the environment and gain more mana as they age.

Experienced Ice Wolves might be able to become Leaders and evolve into these forms after years of experience, eating monsters, and such.

But I am a living pack of cheats because I can skip all of that and eat Mana Cores.

Albeit, they have to match my power to make much of a difference… eating little ones is not helping much now, and they give less and fewer stats, those below Upper Stage barely give me 1 stat.

Most of the stats I am gaining are from exercise and cultivation.

But even as I see my Stats advance, I can't help but think that my stats might be fairly superior to any being on the same level of cultivation as me, quite possibly. And this difference intensifies as I add the Unique Skills into the equation, super regeneration with Immortal Body, amazing Magic with Winter Magic, and all of the Skills and many other things the System itself offers, which all can be seen as cheats by themselves as well… Asking for a System was the best wish ever, it brings forth endless possibilities as I can get more Skills, each one being essentially a power by itself.

Such as Phantom Body…

As I train my Phantom Body while seeing Benladann do sit-ups, I begin to think that albeit I had a rough start, I have become particularly stronger than the average of my Mana Core Rank and that Mana Core Ranks are not everything as well.
