Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!

1045 Godly Faith

The end of the Tekur race changed everything. Michael never counted the number of Tekur slain by his people, but his main body sensed the energy influxes and death energy of trillions of Tekur. And that was only the mass of energy influxes from the Tekur in the Origin Expanse. There were far more Tekur in their lands, which Sylth and others conquered.

They claimed the planets while giving Michael all corpses. The Normie Tekur carcasses were used to nourish the Untamed Jungle, while the Awakened were plundered first. Plundering the Awakened took a while, but it was much faster than Michael had expected since hundred of workers used Plunder Crystals on the Lesser Lifeforms to extract their War Rune storages, Soultrait Symbols, and SoulStar Fragments.

Once everything had been extracted – several weeks were sacrificed in the effort to extract as much as possible – Michael surrendered the plundered corpses to the Untamed Jungle, which had already started expanding to the borders of the first conquered Tekur territory. It would probably take a few months, maybe even a year or two, until all territories that had once been part of the Tekur race would be claimed by the Untamed Jungle, but Michael was not in a rush.

If anything, Michael had much more time to spare than most others.

That was also why he didn't rush when he procured the Faith Soultrait from the Tekur Queen. He'd feared Extraction wouldn't work on a Soultrait like Faith because the droprate for powerful Soultraits like Faith was lower than the norm, but it worked out.

He acquired Faith and altered it slightly to add more perks and remove the Soultrait's downside. After that, Michael didn't waste any time and expanded his Soul Sphere. A new Empty Soul Socket was formed, and Faith fused with it. The Soultrait Symbol was in the inner area of the Main Body's Soul Sphere and was upgraded slowly. It was pushed to 7-Star at once before Michael switched to integrating SoulStar Fragments more slowly.

The effect of Faith was rather simple, but Michael did not want to rush upgrading it to 10-Star. He was a little afraid his body wouldn't adapt fast enough to the potency of Faith and be torn apart long before he was strong enough to deal with the Primal.

Michael considered many things and upgraded Faith slowly. First, every act of loyalty to Michael improved his physical traits. His energy circulation and control increased as well, but there was more to it. His senses were enhanced, and so were his endurance, agility, flexibility, raw power, and the speed with which the Energy Vortex absorbed the surrounding energy.

It was important to know that it did not matter where the loyalty of the living and Summons counted equally. Both were accepted by Michael's Faith, which was superior to the Faith of the Tekur Queen. As the faith of every one of his loyal subjects increased, Michael's power would increase. However, his Soul Power, mental fortitude, and soul were reinforced by their faith once Faith was upgraded to a 7-Star Soultrait.

Once it reached 8-Star, Michael's Essence received some benefits as well. After it reached 9-Star, a portion of Faith fused into his Divinities, nourishing each of his Divinities through the faith of his loyal subjects.

However, the greatest advantage from Faith was granted when the Soultrait Symbol finally reached 10-Star. First, Faith evolved to Godly Faith, and second, everyone with good intentions toward Michael would now grant him power. Everyone hating the same enemies as Michael empowered him, but that was still not everything. Every devout believer of his persona and actions enhanced his strength differently.

The more devout the believer, the higher the enhancement. However, at the same time, the believer's strength was also crucial. The Rebel Gods, with faith in him as the savior who would defeat the Primal, were tremendous. They did not necessarily trust him, some at least, but they had faith in his power and potential to deal with the Primal and rescue everything. That pushed Michael much more than anything else. It increased every property of his being above and beyond anything Michael had hoped for.

Michael was also surprised to sense who had faith in Michael, how devout they were, and why they believed in him. Michael also learned how everyone of the Tritan Alliance felt about him and that the Nest was loyal to him. Even Fera was now considered a follower because of his tremendous power and how he treated the Nest after hearing about the Altors Union's betrayal.

Other than the Nest and the Tritan Alliance, Michael received Faith power from the allies in the Untamed Jungle – the Lords hiding in there –the Elders of the Altors Union, including a considerable portion of the Altors Union's population, the Thorn Merchandise, and many more organizations. They did not even know some of Michael, but they had heard about him and what the Rebel Gods were trying to do with him. That was all they had to know to pray for his well-being. After all, Michael's victory or defeat would change everything.

His victory and defeat decided the fate of the universe. Many did not like this, but even more were praying for Michael's success. That was enough to trigger Faith.

Godly Faith was what Faith transformed after reaching 10-Star. It was now a Godly Soultrait and sounded like one, too. Extraction, on the other hand, didn't sound that impressive. Extraction was the first Soultrait to reach 10-Star. It took a while to upgrade Extraction because he didn't have billions of SoulStar Fragments to spare, but the scarcity of SoulStar Fragments ended with the end of the Tekur race.

Extraction was pushed to 10-Star as his first Soultrait, but its powers didn't skyrocket. At least Michael couldn't perceive a shocking difference anymore. He could only tell that Extraction replenished the Wolf Divinity passively. Michael was having a much easier time tapping into the power of the Wolf Divinity, replenishing it actively much faster than before and unleashing its full power.

That was nice and the greatest benefit, other than the massive boost in all properties of Michael's beings as the Soultrait reached its full potential.

But while Extraction was the first Soultrait to reach 10-Star, it wasn't the last.

His other Soultraits would soon follow suit. After all, he had the SoulStar Fragments of an entire race in his grasp!
