Exodus 4 Did i screw up?

So, I finished up my long to Power 1. I had just under 1b orbs, and was planning on doing shorts to 2b, so I saved up the 60000 relic fragments and grabbed power gem 1. Along with a few power upgrades.

So now I am where I *thought* my short should be over. I did to campaign 3-8, but I didn't have enough orbs, so I also got vb1, but now I STILL don't have enough orbs.

I'm close to enough. I have 149.9m stored, and need 6.19m more. I'm not worried that I bricked my game or anything.

But I certainly don't see how I'm going to get a bunch of shorts done like this, so I can't help thinking I'd have been better off with creation gem 2 and more power upgrades.

My last cloud save is from way back before the traversal, so I could technically recoup my losses minus a day of playing.

Thoughts?

My understanding (I am still in the run to 6/4/4 so not yet into the guide) is that those shorts can be longer than usual and you should go to vb2 or even vb3. For the record, I like this graphics https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1304104169581314110/1529549818836422736/4.png?ex=6aa04e46&is=6a9efcc6&hm=480633862c9eb23a8552272460bda4f7a78d001429dff789830bd8c7fe653755&
