hear all the sounds the creature you’ve created with Create Illusion would make if it was real.

Distance: Disrupt the strength of a sound to confuse the listener about the distance, making it sound closer or further away than reality.

Illusions Space:

If more than one creature is created from the Create Illusion skill, the creatures will acknowledge each other, causing them to talk to and not bump into each other to create the illusion of an army.

Kelly only had these four skills.

John shared all his skills that a mortal could use with Kelly after Sarah used a strong poison to knock her out. Kelly had built up an immunity to the poisons, so Sarah had to strengthen the poison.

The skills John shared would strengthen Kelly’s body, mind, and immunity system.

John and Sarah stood at the end of Kelly’s bed, watching over her as she rested. They noticed her skin moving as the Flesh’s Strength skill tightened both her skin and the muscles just under the flesh on a cellular level. This continued for five minutes, until the skill was completed.

Nothing happened to her that they could see for the next thirty minutes. John was calm as he kept watch, but Sarah grew worried before asking, “What’s happening?”

John chuckled. “This is what happened when I gave you the skills. We’re only able to see the skills that affect her appearance, but the skills are working on her organs, bones, and muscles while also giving her abilities like the map and storage. Obviously, we can’t see those working.”

Sarah nodded in understanding and calmed down.

Ten minutes later, Kelly’s skin became smoother. The rough skin on her hands from handling weapons for too long softened, and her face became rosier.

“Wow.”

“That’s the Absorption skill working. Any dehydration she had is gone now. It’s been so long since I’ve shared these skills with anybody, and I got used to them working in the background that I forgot all about them,” John reminisced.

“Remember to whisper when talking to her when she wakes up. I remember how loud your voice was after my hearing sense skyrocketed.”

John gave Sarah a playful nudge, and silence filled the room as they waited for Kelly to wake up.

Half an hour later, Kelly’s eyelids twitched and slowly opened.

“How are you feeling?” Sarah whispered.

“Weird. You guys are so far away, then too close.”

“That’s the vision skill working,” John whispered. “You’ll get the hang of it soon, but until then you might feel a bit of nausea from the sudden changes.”

Sarah helped Kelly get out of bed and supported her while she refamiliarized herself with everything.

It took Kelly a few hours to get used to the new strength, speed, and senses she had gained, and from that day on, all three of them became honest with each other.

One month later, on Kelly’s birthday, Sarah took out the Age Test Crystal that she found when she was a mortal and placed it in front of Kelly.

Kelly knew what it was because they had explained how it worked, so she took a deep breath and touched it. John and Sarah watched as Kelly gritted her teeth and held her head with her hands. However, she never rolled around in pain or screamed out loud like they had done.

They realised the pain she was experiencing wasn’t as bad as when they turned immortal because of the training she had done, but she still showed signs of being in pain.

When it was all over, Sarah used poison to knock Kelly out while she was on her bed again.

John then shared all the immortal skills with Kelly.

Once again, they stood at the end of the bed and watched the transformation.

Her transformation was just like Sarah’s, including her hair shrinking while it turned curly. Her eyes and hair were already silver to begin with, so the colour didn’t change.

The only problem was that he couldn’t share the Life Toxin skill he got from Sarah to turn the Life Power to Toxin Power.

With the amount of Life Power their cultivation techniques got, and because Kelly couldn’t use Toxin Power, she would get the maximum of one trillion Life Power her brain could store in less than fourteen days. She wouldn’t be able to expand her neurons until she reached higher ranks.

She would be able to nourish her body by using the proper cultivation method instead of what John and Sarah did, so after that, she’d be able to store Life Power in her body.

After Kelly woke up, he gave her the beastmen cores so that she could control all elements, and he also gave her half of his Life Stones. While he didn’t need Life Stones for anything other than for the Recovery Skill, he had a plan he wanted to put in motion when he left and needed the other half.

Sarah gave half of her Life Stones to Kelly because she was near the limit of Toxic Power she could gather, too.

On this day, John’s final skill had finished, but when it did, nothing special happened. He was already generating vitality for his entire body manually, so all that happened was the skill took over for him.

Now, there were no skills he could place the Idlers into, so they were just sitting there, idle.

After a few more days of helping Kelly get used to the skills and controlling the elements, John told them it was time for him to leave and, hopefully, find a way to transcend.

He gave Kelly and Sarah a long hug that lasted for twenty minutes before he let go and disappeared.

Chapter 26: Catching Up

John didn’t use his universal map or teleport next to the Nobody Sect’s teleport room. He only teleported a few dozen miles away before he flew straight up.

He flew for tens of miles, entering the stratosphere, but he kept going.

A few minutes later and he was almost five hundred miles above the planet and inside the planet’s orbit.

Looking down at the planet, he saw how beautiful the mostly blue planet
