Yale and Lina noticed that Terug came to visit them, so they stopped their training and went to receive him.
Those three months had allowed both of them to improve a lot in the Essences related to crafting.
Yale couldn't help but smile each time he checked the Main Menu.
[Name: Yale (Timeless Sovereign)]
[Age: Undetermined]
[Immortal Level: 3 (Essence God)]
[Stats maxed. Battle Master]
[Essence God: Sword, Time, Life, Death, Space, Smith, Archery, Martial Arts, Whip, Rod, Spear, Hammer, Axe, Water, Thunder, Fire, Darkness, Light, Earth, Wind, Alchemy]
[Law God (peak): Tailor]
[Law God: Cook]
Since Yale started to modify the Origin Path, the information of his level changed a bit, but he didn't care too much about it.
At that moment he was at least a Law God in all the Laws, and regarding Essences the only one he had yet to understand was the one related to cooking.
His knowledge of the Tailor Essence was already complete, and he just needed to craft something good enough to make the breakthrough to Essence God, and Yale believed that he wouldn't need to much time for that.
Lina had improved even more than Yale. With Yale guidance and her talent, it hadn't been difficult for her becoming a Law Master in all the battle-focused Essences, and she was way faster than Yale learning anything related to crafting.
If Yale hadn't been relying on the knowledge that he obtained from Tofesh extrapolating it to other Essences, he would have been unable to follow Lina's pace. Of course, even extrapolating knowledge, the rest of crafting-related Laws and Essences were far from reaching the miraculous effects of his blacksmithing.
However, Yale was overestimating Lina because if it hadn't been for having someone of similar level than her to compare insights, not even with her talent would have been able to advance so quickly despite having so many valuable resources.
At that moment, Lina only lacked the Cook Essence and would have become an Essence God of all Essences. Moreover, on the Cook Essence, she was at the same level as Yale in the Tailor Essence, so her cooking was still ahead of Yale's.
Lina was born with the Supreme Talent, so she had the best talent in everything, which made her been always far ahead of others with similar ages to her. Calling her the best genius of the universe wasn't exaggerating when speaking of innate talent alone.
However, innate talent wasn't everything, and Yale who didn't even have the lowest kind of talent for the Essence they had just trained was able to train at the same speed as her. If it hadn't been that he was behind her from the start, they would be at the same level at that moment.
Shiba was another good example showing that innate talent wasn't everything as he managed to become an Essence God before Eini who had greater innate talent than him, and even Lina was shocked by Shiba's progress.
In fact, Terug also belonged to the group of people that didn't have a very high innate talent, but he was lucky enough to obtain a Fake Origin Path when he was young because he helped the youngest son of an Origin God.
Of course, that kid wasn't in true danger because there were subordinates of his father ensuring that the kid's life wasn't in danger, but Terug was still paid with a Fake Origin Path for his actions.
He belonged to a family of mortals where no one trained, and his talents were even worse than Shiba's, but he still managed to become a World God due to his hard work.
He always trained alone until he became a World God and noticed how important was having a background. He once thought in looking for the Origin God who gave his Fake Origin Path, but he couldn't remember that person's face at all.
After all, if an expert didn't want that a mortal remembered him, it wasn't difficult at all, and he only met that expert once.
Only an Origin path or a Fake Origin Path could reach the Origin God level, the Magus Path could only reach the World God level, and the Warrior Path due to the lack of capability to train Elemental Essences was restricted to the Essence God level.
That difference in Paths led to despair a lot of experts after noticing about it.
However, if one trained the Magus Path and the Warrior Path simultaneously, it was still possible to obtain an upgrade to the Fake Origin Path.
All the World Gods in that Immortal World practiced the Magus Path and the Warrior Path or the Fake Origin Path because those without any chance to advance weren't willing to spend so much effort to increase their power a bit.
After all, the increases in the power of someone who practiced the Magus Path, and those who practiced it together with the Warrior Path was very different, and the effort needed to increase one Tier was also very different.
The difference between training those two Paths or the Fake Origin Path wasn't that big, but there were still some differences in efficiency when training and in the power wielded at the same Tier.
"Terug, you seem to be very happy today."
Yale was unable to sense the exact level of power of a World God, but he could guess by Terug's face that he advances quite a bit.
"I reached Tier 8 after so much time. How can't I be happy?"
Terug wanted to celebrate his breakthrough, but he didn't have any friends until Yale gave him that axe, so he could only find Yale to celebrate his breakthrough.
Of course, Terug's subordinates would have been happy to celebrate with him, but friends and subordinates weren't the same.
Of course, Terug wouldn't admit that he didn't have any other friends in front of Yale because it would make him seem too pitiful.
"We also made quite a few breakthroughs on our crafting, so we are also in a good mood. Let's celebrate it."
Terug didn't think that the breakthroughs in crafting could have been too huge in about three months, but even a small breakthrough was worthy of celebrating when one reach those levels.
"Of course! I already ordered my chefs to prepare a banquet. Don't worry there will be dishes to your sisters too. By the way, can you show me what you crafted? I am quite experienced and can give you my impression of it."
Although Terug hadn't trained in any crafting-related Essence, he had subordinates with expertise in all the areas, and he learned how to distinguish the quality of their works with great precision.
Of course, it couldn't be compared with Yale's Divine Eyes that could obtain perfect accuracy when appraising something, but since Terug spoke out of goodwill, Yale showed a potion he made when he advanced to Essence God in alchemy.
"This is what I made for my breakthrough in Alchemy to Essence God."
Terug checked the potion and smelled it before nodding.
"You are really talented in Alchemy. It can't be said to be at the pinnacle of the Essence God level, but at least is still far above average. To craft something like this for your breakthrough, I admire you."
Usually, when advancing to Essence God it was typical to create something that barely reached the mark an after that there would be time to improve more, but there were a few talented individuals that skipped that and went to produce good stuff from the start.
However, those who did that had all great innate talents, and Yale didn't have any innate talent in Alchemy, but Yale wasn't planning to tell that to Terug.
"I still need to improve a lot. Right, since you checked my crafting, I also want to check your increase of strength. Let's spar. I will cast a barrier to nullify the effects of the battle, so don't restrain yourself."
Yale wanted to test his strength, and Terug just happened to be a good point of reference.
After all, Yale already knew very well Lina and Shiba, and battle against them wasn't the same as battling against someone he hadn't battled before.
Terug was a bit shocked, but since Yale said that he would cast a barrier, he nodded to Yale's suggestion.
Battling against stronger opponents was good to temple one's mind, so Terug thought that Yale was planning to use the pressure on that battle to do it.
After all, in Terug's opinion, it was for the weakness of mind or soul that Yale hadn't advanced to World God, so he was willing to assist him in fixing that flaw.
Yale only wanted to know how he would perform in front of a World God in battle. He didn't need to temple his mind because if it wasn't for creating a new Path, he could have advanced without problems.
Yale's mental strength was extraordinary due to his experiences in his lives and the Timeless Border, and his soul had been nourished nonstop by the pure energy, so he didn't think that he would face any problem due to the weakness of mind or soul.
"Let's spar right now while the chefs prepare the food. If you have checked the house, you should know that there is a training ground here."
Yale nodded, and Lina sighed while being a bit depressed because she also wanted to battle against Terug to test her strength, but Yale had been faster in asking for it.
