Chapter 352: Aura Mirage Shelter Treasure
“Alright, don’t look at me with that expression. Defeating my opponent took all my effort. Without some luck, you might not even see me return,” Nash sighed.

Although he had the power, his foundation was still lacking.

If he mastered and condensed a thousand elemental cores, defeating a Void Marshal would just be a flick of his finger.

At that moment, he would truly become invincible in his realm.

Of course, if someone with an SSS-class Void Affinity for all elements appeared, Nash would still have to run.

With an SSS-class Void Affinity, mastering all the elements should be a cinch.

Calculating the power of all elemental cores condensed from SSS-level affinity, the total amplification would be over 1.6 million times!

With the maximum Void capacity of 10 billion, their combat power could reach a total of 16 quadrillion, almost three times that of Kaius before.

Nash estimated that even with the Soul Celestial Beast, he would still have to run.

Changing the topic, they began to ask what Nash had earned in the secret realm.

“I got 500 top elemental crystals, three fragment pieces of my weapon, and a shelter treasure.”

“A shelter treasure… what is that?” Camilla asked in puzzlement.

“You don’t know?”

“No. In the treasure vault we were in, besides treasures related to our element, there was nothing else.”

“Oh? What was the name of the treasure vault you were in?”

“Mine’s called C5 Treasure Vault,” Camilla said, recalling the announcement from the secret realm.

“I’m the same,” Natasha and Hobis said.

“It’s different for me. The name is D3 Treasure Vault,” Skylar said.

“I see. It seems that based on our results in the trial, we were assigned to different treasure vaults,” Nash nodded in understanding.

“Anyway, hurry up and show us what shelter treasure you’re talking about.”

“It’s this. Aura Mirage.” Nash said, taking out a crystal core that emitted a myriad of colours.

“So beautiful…”

Much less a powerful shelter treasure, Camilla and Natasha thought its appearance alone was enough to make them drool.

“This is for Tsuka, not for you.” Nash quickly held back the Aura Mirage, preventing their claws from getting it.

“Stingy!~”

“We just want to look!”

“Please~”

“No.”

“Tsk! Then don’t!”

Seeing Nash wouldn’t budge an inch, the two could only roll their eyes.

“Anyway, what treasure did you get with your points?”

“It’s nothing, just some resources. It’s not as dazzling as yours.”

“What is it?”

“We were able to exchange a few drops of Soul Essence and Void Essence Dew,” Natasha and Hobis answered.

“That’s good! It seems you’re about to rebuild your foundation.” Nash congratulated.

Natasha and Hobis were different from them.

Coming from humble backgrounds, their early rise to power was full of bumps due to a lack of support.

As a result, their foundations were full of gaps, holding them back from advancing.

Because there were no resources for their elements, they hadn’t even been able to condense a complete elemental core until now.

Otherwise, with their SSS-level affinities with Shadow and Inferno, their strength could be enhanced up to a thousand times, surpassing even him, who mastered five elements.

Unfortunately, while rare elements were beneficial, they also had massive downsides.

If not for the secret realm, they would never have gotten an elemental crystal related to their element.

Now, with resources attuned to their elements and a treasure that could rebuild their foundation, Natasha and Hobis should soon show their true power as elites.

“What about you, Camilla? What did you get?”

Having a perfect foundation from the tailored manual he provided, Camilla shouldn’t need Soul or Void Essence Dew.

“Hmph! I got a drop of Phoenix Blood.”

“A drop of Phoenix Blood? Is there even such a treasure?”

Natasha and Hobis didn’t seem to have encountered anything like it.

“It must be related to my genetic ability,” Camilla muttered proudly.

“Then have you taken it?”

The drop of Phoenix Blood should significantly enhance Camilla’s genetic ability.

However, seeing no other change in her genetic structure, Nash guessed she hadn’t taken it yet.

“I’m waiting for you. How could I relax, knowing you’re still outside?” Camilla rolled her eyes.

“Hmm, then wait for me before you take the Phoenix Blood. Let me see if I can gather some useful data.” Nash whispered into her ear.

After the [Memory Module System], Nash planned to optimize the [Recovery Module System].

With Camilla’s genetic ability as a reference, he should be able to come up with an interesting result.

“Then I’ll wait for you…”

“What about you, Skylar? What did you exchange for?”

“Nothing special. I just exchanged my points for another top-grade Time Elemental Crystal,” Skylar answered.

The resources he needed were rarer than those of everyone else.

Without the secret realm, it might take him decades or even centuries before he could condense a complete Time Elemental Core.

However, with the resources he got, even if it wasn’t enough, it should be enough for him to condense a partial core to advance.

Soon, after briefings on all the things they had gained, Nash and the others began to have a little celebration.

—

After eating and relaxing, Nash finally remembered the Aura Mirage.

Not wanting it to rot in his storage space, Nash began communicating with Tsuka, guiding it to merge with the shelter treasure.

Suddenly, wrapped by its power, the fist-sized treasure began to expand, fusing into Tsuka’s forehead.

In the process, emitting dazzling light, the others in the Nova Team soon noticed the commotion.

“What’s happening? Is Tsuka evolving again?”

“How is that possible? Tsuka was still far from advancement.”

“Then what is this?”

“Maybe it’s the leader…”

“That’s right. Leader just returned from the secret realm. He must have gotten some treasure for Tsuka.”

Guessing the reason for such a sudden spectacle, the dazzling colours of light suddenly expanded, enveloping the area around the shelter.

“This—”

“Now what?”

Enveloping everything their eyes could see, they didn’t notice that, on the other side of the dazzling light, a mirage silently formed, blending with the surrounding shelter as if it were a part of the environment.
