Tier 6 - ?

This was the general trend of upgrade for control that Draco and Eva had noticed, and each stage yielded more benefits for the Void of Perfection that the Body of Godliness.

The official name for control, as was seen in the Eternal World, was Unity of Body and Soul, which was one of the most potent Eternal talents available but was exceedingly hard to achieve.

So the question obviously was; how did the Gerdo Galaxy humans achieve it? And not just achieve it, but how did they condense it into a racial bloodline?

After all, Draco and Eva were not pioneering this route, unlike with their Eternal Chaotic Bloodline. The levels of Control had be pre-written into their human DNA and only had to be dug out when your bloodline got purer.

They had Tier 5 when they were at 99% and theorized that they could reach Tier 7, which was their limit with their purity of human DNA back then. However now, with their bloodline at 100% and perfectly merged with their human  DNA to allow them to reproduce, they could reach the maximum level of Tier 10.

In fact, they should have increased their Control level automatically when they reached 100%, but they suppressed it because they wanted to understand the stages they were in, and there was no pressure to go higher.

However, now that Draco had seen the value of Control to his crafting ability, it was time to unleash the shackles and advance.

Unfortunately, there was no explosion of power or a shockwave. After churning his human bloodline specifically and activating Control, he felt like there was a thin paper wall in front of him that could be easily torn down.

So he did.

He entered the next level smoothly and began to feel the changes it brought to his body and mind.

Meanwhile, Eva and Shuangtian, who were both doing their own things, had their expressions changed as they immediately sat down cross legged and accepted the mental feedback from Draco.

They also simultaneously broke through in their levels of Control to Tier 6.

Tier 6 Control... what was it all about? Well, lets recount on the powers of Control from Tier 1.

The Tier 1 Body of Godliness granted the ability to directly control muscles in the body. A person could perfectly re-allocate force/power in their body and control the various senses within the body with relative ease.

The Tier 1 Void of Perfection granted the ability to expand the mind outside the body in a short range (depending on the person in question) to sense the area around them using their 3 senses of sight, hearing, and smell.

The Tier 2 Body of Godliness granted the ability to indirectly control muscles. At this point, one could even tighten muscles instinctively to reduce the impact of hits as well as bullets or blunt force impacts.

The Tier 2 Void of Perfection granted the ability to expand the mind outside the body in a greater range at least double of Tier 1. One could now sense the area around them using the 4 senses of sight, hearing, touch, and smell. At this stage, one can also act upon forces within the range of the domain, bending light and twisting sound, etc.

The Tier 3 Body of Godliness granted the ability to slightly control blood within the body. At this point, one could accelerate their healing, send blood to and from places within their body as well as forcibly stop their hearts for periods of time.

The Tier 3 Void of Perfection granted the ability to expand the mind outside the body for a large range, once again, at least double of Tier 2. At this stage, small psychic abilities were gained, like an elementary form of telekinesis, telesthesia, telepathy and more. They were far weaker than the Dark Angel or Celestial Maiden Inheritances when Draco and Eva were at 30% activation way before reaching 100% bloodline purity.

The Tier 4 Body of Godliness granted the ability to control the blood thoroughly, as well as some organs. One could now overstimulate their blood to increase their speed, power and intelligence for a short period of time. This created a great amount of body heat that escapes in the form of steam and greatly reduces nutrients in the blood, requiring massive sustenance later.

The Tier 4 Void of Perfection granted the ability to expand the mind outside the body for an immense range, double of Tier 3 at least. Psychic abilities were further perfected, now reaching 30% of the Dark Angel and Celestial Maiden inheritances back then. They could now use all 5 senses of taste, touch, hearing, smell and sight in their sensory domain. A major change happened here, because they could now peer into the atomic realm with intense focus.

The Tier 5 Body of Godliness granted the ability to fully control all muscles, blood and organs directly and indirectly. You could literally shift your organs about to dodge a sword stab or a bullet pierce, thereby reducing the fatality of strikes greatly.  Also, as seen with Eva, on could change their organs directly, allowing one to grow a genuine penis if female or a vagina if male. A new ability at this tier was the power to slightly control skin, allowing for cosmetic morphing or skin hardening.

The Tier 5 Void of Perfection granted the ability to expand the mind outside the body for a massive range, twice that of Tier 4 at least. The potency of the Psychic abilities gained finally reaches about 60% of the bloodline standard back at 99% purity. The previous ability to barely peer into the atomic realm now upgrades to being able to look deeply the atomic realm with ease and even affect things at that level with the mind.  At this stage, they could slightly peer into the quantum realm.

And this was where they had been for the past few months, never really seeing a need to go further. But after reaching Tier 6 control, Draco realized how naive his thoughts were.

The Tier 6 Body of Godliness granted the ability to fully control all muscles, blood and organ and the skin directly and indirectly. You could become a changeling, switching from one face to the next without any stress. You could change your height, weight, smell,and visage into anyone you could think of. At this stage, you could slightly control your nerves, which granted great effects to enhancing mental power.

(Author's Note: Control of nerves is basically entry level Ultra Instinct, specifically the battle form not the complete version.)

The Tier 6 Void of Perfection granted the ability to expand the mind outside the body for an impossible range, three times that of Tier 5 at least! At this point, you could both look and control the atomic realm as well as the quantum realm. Both of them had no secrets before a Tier 6 Control user whatsoever.

Taking it a step further, Draco could see... something. There was a level beyond the Quantum Realm, but even reaching Tier 6 and mastering the Quantum realm didn't give him the qualifications to peer into this realm.

Draco tentatively named this the Origin Realm, likely where the origin of the universe and its truths lay. It should be the deepest and most central layer of the universe, and Draco wondered what would be in there.

That was a question for later though. The him now finally had the qualifications to continue his work and ascend into the God Realm of his Tradeskill techniques, and even of the Tradeskills themselves!

Draco got up and ended his meditation. His could still advance control further with the feedback from increasing his bloodline to up to Tier 9, but then that would be unnecessary in his opinion.

Control only had 10 stages, so it was better for him to slowly experience them all and understand them, because breaking into Tier 10 would be essentially reaching the full Eternal stage of the ability.

That would require a culmination of everything done in the previous Tiers and if he skipped past them without understanding them, how would he be able to accomplish that?

Draco got up and finally took out his beloved Pair Dadeni and Mjolnir and inspected them after so long.

Draco rubbed his chin and pondered many things. He knew that he had gotten 10,000% experience for his class from the system, but that was subject to his Eternal Class's exp reduction.

As such it was better spent on these two. After allocating them each 5,000%, Draco got up and left the Morningstar World after informing Eva and Shuangtian of what he was going to do.

He was off to farm monsters to raise the two items to Divine Rank, as that would smoothen his upgrade to the next level significantly. With them, he wouldn't need to waste actual Divine Materials and could convert lower ones upwards.

In fact, the ability of these two items was somewhat similar to Refinement, but more crude. Draco also decided to investigate their abilities with his powered up Control and find out why these two sets could achieve this effect.

Draco appeared at the second trade route area he had opened up with Eva when he wanted to gather experience for his Three NPC Beauties. He looked down and saw that the monster population had still not recovered, but no one had come to develop this since neither he nor Eva told anyone.

Anyway, it was now pointless since Vita and Umbra were going to war with practically everyone. Draco and Eva had long planned to conquer the entire western fantasy section and rule with an iron fist before going to the Divine Realm, but they never had a reason to.

Now, the whole world would feel the flames of conquest in just less than 2 months. It will be bloody and brutal.
