"What's going on?" Sophia quickly adjusted her balance. Everything around her was moving toward the deep jungle.
"The space was shrinking toward the northwest just now, but now it's moving straight north!" Lucia kept calculating the speed of everything around them and used a compass to check.
While the two were amazed by the scene, Natalia already figured out the source: "It's Logan! He's absorbing the space energy around us!"
Hearing this, Sophia frowned slightly. "You're not joking, are you? After the Blood Cultivation Realm's space broke, the space crystals would completely shatter and spread into the real world's space."
Lucia added: "And they would mix with the real world's space in a short time. It could be done in as little as 24 hours."
Natalia smiled and waved her hand. Two strong spider threads wrapped around Sophia and Lucia's waists, pulling them quickly out of the jungle and steadying their bodies.
At that moment, Natalia remembered a few months ago, when Logan was still outside the elite Blood Cultivation Realm in Twilight City. He had done something similar then, and he had relied on Natalia's help to survive.
Thinking about this, Natalia suddenly turned and charged toward the center of the space energy vortex.
Sophia and Lucia had just escaped the space whirlpool when Natalia pulled them both, along with the spider threads, into the jungle. They both rolled their eyes.
But Logan was absorbing space energy faster and faster. When the group reached the destination again, Logan was already at the third location, absorbing energy.
So Logan ran, and Natalia and the others chased him. They kept chasing until Logan had absorbed all the space energy from half a cave. Only then did Natalia and the others finally catch up.
After absorbing the space energy from four Blood Cultivation Realms, Logan's soul power could now sense anything within 1,600 meters. He slowly opened his eyes and met Natalia's gaze, smiling. "You're here. The blood tree is dead. I'm cleaning up the mess it left behind."
Natalia gave Logan a quick look and sighed in relief. "At least you're alive. Everything else doesn't matter."
Sophia and Lucia looked at Natalia in surprise. They couldn't believe the cold-hearted Natalia would say such a thing.
In the meantime, Sophia tried to use her Mental Power to check Logan's level. But before her power even touched him, a strong mental force stopped her.
Sophia frowned and looked at Logan. "You really broke through to Legend stage?"
Logan smiled and nodded. "Yeah, I got lucky. I absorbed Dale Morgan's soul. You guys forget? Heserion has the [Soul Drain] skill."
Sophia frowned slightly after hearing Logan's explanation.
Logan's words sounded reasonable, but they didn't hold up when you thought about it.
Even if Heserion had the [Soul Drain] skill, she was only at Master stage.
A Master stage familiar tamer killing a top Legend stage one? That was impossible.
Sophia was about to ask more when Lucia stopped her with a hand.
Lucia gave Sophia a look that said "don't push it" and smiled. "Logan, even though you don't need to join the Genius Training Camp anymore, if you want to take on the Supernova challenge, you still need to go back to Saint Heart City and take part in the second round of the internal war."
When she said that, Logan scratched his head. "You guys don't mind if I scare people?"
Natalia gave him a look. "You're already Legend stage. Who would dare mind you? Anyone who gets to fight you is lucky, got it?"
Logan nodded, a little embarrassed.
He had no idea what Legend stage really meant. He didn't feel like a real strong person at all.
Natalia saw this and sighed slightly, then started explaining to Logan.
In the whole federation, only a few hundred familiar tamers could reach Legend stage.
The military had the most Legend stage familiar tamers
Even the dozen members of the Federal Military Committee were all at Legend stage.
Next, the City Lords of the main cities were mostly strong Legend stage warriors.
But since the cities were not very close, they didn't often form groups. Instead, they focused on controlling local Blood Cultivation Realms.
Under their control, the City Guard and familiar tamer guilds were directly managed by them and were a powerful force.
Then there was the Judgement Tribunal. They were always mysterious, but no one doubted their top fighters.
After all, even the City Lords and top members of the Military Committee had been arrested by the Judgement Tribunal before.
Finally, there were the federal parliament, cabinet, and various civilian groups.
In the parliament, besides the chairman, some old council families had Legend stage familiar tamers in their ranks.
For example, the Tattalia and Corleone families had power that could challenge even the City Lords.
Civilian groups varied in strength. Some, like the Alchemist Guild, the Adventurer Guild, and the Familiar Tamer Guild, also had Legend stage fighters.
For example, the Genius Training Camp was part of a civilian group.
After understanding all this, Logan looked like he finally got it. "So, in the human federation, I can also be in the top one thousand?" he asked.
Natalia gave him a look and huffed. "Don't get too excited. The gap between Legend stage familiar tamers is huge. Dale Morgan was a perfect example. If you hadn't had an advantage over him, none of us would have been able to beat him."
Logan nodded, thinking she was right.
At the end of the day, the size of a familiar tamer's familiar space sets their limit.
Whether it's battle techniques, the number of familiars, or their types, everything is limited by the space they can hold.
So, if a familiar tamer wants to go far in their path, they have to make choices when it comes to choosing their familiars, building rune arrays, and creating battle techniques.
Even Dale Morgan could only steal others' familiar abilities using his [Divine Fruit] to improve his fighting style—but that had its own problems.
What? Logan's familiar space is already bigger than the whole city?
Well, that's fine then!
Because the banquet Morgan family set up had a big impact, Natalia and the others had to leave the underground space to deal with it.
They told Logan to come back to Saint Heart City as soon as he was done, and then they left.
Logan remembered that his girls were still in the underground cave, so he asked Natalia to help bring them out too.
After seeing the three girls off, Logan was about to go to the next place to absorb space energy.
But before he took two steps, a bright holy light barrier suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his way.
Then, a group of Temple knights surrounded him. Eugenia slowly stepped forward and looked at Logan with a careful, suspicious gaze. "Is that Dale Morgan?" she asked.
Logan heard the name and realized Eugenia thought he had been taken over by Dale Morgan. He sighed and said, "Don't worry, I'm Logan."
Eugenia didn't relax at all.
She called out a golden parrot, which landed on Logan's shoulder.
Then she looked at him again and asked, "Who are you really?"
Before Logan could answer, the parrot on his shoulder spoke first: "My name is Logan!"
When she heard the parrot's answer, Eugenia finally relaxed and looked relieved.
She ordered all the Temple knights to stop using their skills, and the holy light barrier in front of Logan disappeared.
Logan stretched his hands and was about to tease Eugenia when the parrot on his shoulder spoke first: "I didn't expect you to have such a big chest, but you're actually pretty careful."
Hearing that, the nearby Temple knights all snorted and laughed.
"Haha, Logan, you're not the first one to think that!"
"Did a high school student really think our boss's size was too big?"
"This is my favorite part every time our boss uses the pure parrot to question prisoners."
Logan listened to the knights laugh while looking awkwardly at Eugenia.
Now, he didn't dare say anything. If the parrot on his shoulder said something embarrassing again, he would really be embarrassed for life.
Eugenia gave him a look and took the pure parrot off his shoulder. "It's my familiar," she said. "It can't fight, but its interrogation skills are S-level. Even Legend stage familiar tamers can't hide anything from it."
Logan looked at the parrot and sighed, "At least my mind is clean."
Pfft!
Logan's explanation made everyone laugh again.
Eugenia looked around and said, "That space contraction just now was you, right?"
Logan nodded silently and admitted what he was planning.
Eugenia was surprised that Logan could solve the Blood Cultivation Realm pollution this way, and she bowed to him. "I represent the people of Snow Dragon. Thank you. You deserve praise from the whole federation."
Then she handed Logan a parchment and said, "I know you have a deal with The Black Church, but I don't recommend you get too close to them. They're all people who lost their faith. They have no rules. Got it?"
After saying that, Eugenia left with her knights, no hesitation.
Logan opened the parchment and was shocked. It was a QR code with a small note under it: "Add me as a friend and stay in touch."
