M...]

Emrys browsed through the mission and was stunned. Despite being aware of the power and reach of Eternal Paradise, it seemed he had still underestimated the extent of its influence. The missions weren’t just difficult; they were crafted to stretch the boundaries of what anyone could think was possible. Each task was proof of the incredible power and authority that Eternal Paradise wielded across the Eternity.

"What do you think?"

The titan, Orin, looked at Emrys’s surprised expression and asked. The other four also glanced at Emrys curiously, wanting to know his decision.

Shaking his head, Emrys stated, "Unfortunately, I’m not strong enough to accept any of these missions."

Emrys has always been self-aware. He knows his limits and always calculates the steps to take. Since there is zero chance for him to complete any of these missions, he wouldn’t accept any of them. It is that simple.

Inhaling deeply, Emrys walked to another screen where he could search for missions. He wanted to see if there was any mission related to Spiritarium.

To his surprise, the instant he put the keyword "Spiritarium", a series of three missions appeared.

[Mission 1: Enter Spiritarium and steal one of the ancestral treasures of Spiritas Race.

Detail: Infiltrate the Grand Hall of Worship, a highly guarded sanctuary of the Spiritas Race, and steal one of their ancestral treasures.

The Grand Hall of Worship is hidden within the Forest of Echoes which is a mystical place that shifts and bends with the will of the Spiritas Race’s Leader. It is protected by powerful Spiritas, Ten Illusion King Formations, Nine Hell Kill Formation, and six ancient barriers that respond to soul energy.

Reward: 25,000 Eternal Points, The Heart of Ethereal Light.]

"What the... This mission actually offers 25,000 Eternal Points. Not only that, we can obtain the Heart of Ethereal Light after completing the mission as well."

Aurum exclaimed in shock, his voice echoing through the mission hall and drawing the attention of many.

Everyone glanced at him as if he were a fool. Many assumed that Aurum was visiting the Mission Hall for the first time, which explained his reaction.

After all, there were countless missions that offered even millions of Eternal Points as rewards; 25,000 Eternal Points seemed insignificant.

However, what none of them realized was that the 25,000 Eternal Points were being offered for a mission available within a Cosmic Field.

The highest reward ever given for a mission related to a Cosmic Field had been only 20,000 Eternal Points. Only a mission that sends one to the Vast Expanse of Eternity offers rewards above 20,000 Eternal Points.

But now, 25,000 Eternal Points were given for a mission that sends people into a Cosmic Field. This has already broken the norms, and that’s why Aurum was unable to control his excitement and shouted loudly.

In fact, it was not just Aurum, Idris, Orin, Ye Qingxian, and Fiora’s reactions were the same. They just managed to suppress their urge to exclaim.

Emrys was surprised to see their reaction. If anyone, then it is only he who is completely oblivious of everything. His attention was attracted to the other reward. He asked, "It seems this Heart of Ethereal Light is a great treasure. Can you tell me exactly what this is?"

It was after he asked this question that everyone returned to their senses. They breathed deeply, and only Idris responded, "The Heart of Ethereal Light is a legendary treasure known even in the entirety of the Vast Expanse of Eternity for its extraordinary power and rarity. This treasure is said to be imbued with the purest essence of light, making it a source of immense energy. Some say it is the heart of a real person and some say it is an artificial heart created by a Craftsman at the expanse of their life."

"Moreover, it has several abilities that are coveted by countless people."

"First, Just a drop from Heart’s Essence and it can dramatically enhance the abilities of its wielder, amplifying their strength, speed, and other innate powers. This amplification is not linear; it multiplies the wielder’s potential manyfold, making even an average cultivator a force to be reckoned with."

"Secondly, this heart is a light-elemental treasure that is best known for healing and recovery. It can rapidly heal injuries, purify poisons, and even regenerate lost limbs. The light emitted by the Heart has a purifying effect, capable of cleansing the most severe wounds and ailments, including curses or dark influences that other methods cannot cure."

"Thirdly, this Heary can provide unparalleled resistance to dark forces, abyssals, demons, and corrupting influences. Wielders of the Heart of Ethereal Light are shielded from mind control, enchantment, and other sinister manipulations. This makes it a perfect counter to dark arts and those who wield them."

There are several other things that can be achieved with the help of this heart. I didn’t expect it to be being offered as a reward. This is truly unexpected.

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

Fiora suddenly sighed and said, "The reward given by this mission is enough to speak how dangerous this mission actually is. Without sufficient preparation and strength, it is better not to accept this mission. Most importantly, Spiriarium is a Cosmic Field filled with Soul Cultivators. Spiritas Race sounds more in line with souls than us humans or anyone else. Our souls, on the other hand, are our greatest weakness. Our souls are too weak. We will die immediately the moment we try to infiltrate the Grand Hall of Worship. It is better not to accept this mission."

Idris and others nodded. No one needs to remind them about the danger that may exist there. If this is a mission related to any other Cosmic Field, they wouldn’t hesitate to accept.

But, Spiritarium is an exception. This is a place where they can be killed quite easily due to their weak souls.

That’s why, it is better to abandon any idea of accepting this mission.

Emrys didn’t say anything, he focused on the second mission.

[Mission 2: Kill the Soul Demon Emperor, Noman.

Details: The Soul Demon Emperor, Noman, is a dark and powerful ruler residing within the Obsidian Soul Palace hidden somewhere in the void of Spiritarium. Noman commands an army of Soul Demons and wields potent soul-manipulation abilities that make him a significant threat to any intruders. He is the reason behind the destruction of thousands of Source Universes that used to exist inside Spiritarium. He is also the reason behind countless wars in several places that left a mark in history. Millions of Soul Demons are working under him.

Rewards: 21,000 Eternal Points, Soul Shard of Dominance (a powerful artifact that grants control over weaker Soul Demons and enhances the user’s soul manipulation abilities).]

Emrys was surprised. This was after a long time when he heard about Soul Demons. He couldn’t help but remember Serafina Gracia, his childhood friend. She also became a Soul Demon due to the manipulations and works of the Darkborne Family.

He remembered wanting to save Serafina at that time but felt powerless to help. In the end, Serafina said goodbye and told him not to seek her out or appear before her again because she couldn’t guarantee that she wouldn’t harm him.

Her message was clear: she was unsure if she could control her demonic nature if they met again. She may not have wanted to harm her friend, so she warned him to stay away.

"Yet another mission that gives more than 20,000 Eternal Points for the reward." Idris sighed in shock. Unfortunately, this was also not a mission they could accept. After all, their souls are the most vulnerable. They can be killed in Spiritarium quite easily.

Emrys also sighed, but the reason behind his sigh was different.

In the end, he and others looked at the third mission.

[Mission 3: Activate the Ascension Gate and end the Great War in Celestial Horizon.

Details: Some forces from the Spiritarium are manipulating powerful entities in one of the Source Universes. These powerful entities have allied with the Spiritarium because the Ascension Gate has been blocked, preventing anyone from ascending to the Spiritarium, and creating chaos everywhere.

One of the Ascension Gates is located in the Celestial Horizon, a region formed by the collision of four different worlds: Infinite Soul Star, Serene Dawn Star, Mystic Essence World, and Eternal Spirit World. Each world has a "path" that leads to the Celestial Horizon. Only the most powerful individuals in each world can find these "paths" and enter the Celestial Horizon.

A war is currently being fought in the Celestial Horizon that may result in the destruction of all four worlds. Stop the war and take care of this matter completely by activating the Ascension Gate.

Rewards: 3,000 Eternal Points and a chance for a level upgrade (within the cultivator’s respective cultivation system).]
