“There it is… now that is out of your system let’s head to the third stage of Ego Gem formation, shall we?” Seeing Anna be jealous enough to show it out in such an ugly way. I felt it was worth it having gone through all the trouble to extract soul energy manipulation skills from the Soulpoles.
“Hold your horses, buddy. You may have mastered the basic soul energy circulation method because of your cheat skill, Soul energy manipulation. But you still have to refine your entire soul energy to the required degree of purity. And then use that refined soul energy to nourish your ethereal spirit to conjure it to reality.
For you to achieve the required degree of purity you will have to purify your soul energy for 2 or 3 weeks even with your cheat skill. And then nourish your ethereal spirit to reality. So, the third stage will have to wait. Until you can conjure your spirit to reality. Don’t think having a cheat skill will save you from the required grunt work.” Anna seemed to be pretty mad about my soul energy manipulation skill to repeatedly call it a cheat skill. But jealousy was not her colour it did not suit her.
“Anna, I think my soul energy has already reached the required degree of purity for the nourishment of my ethereal spirit. Can you check if I have met the requirement? So that I can start nourishing my spirit and soon conjure it into reality.” I did not know what degree of purity of soul energy was needed to nourish my ethereal spirit so I had to ask Anna to check if the purity of my soul energy was enough.
“Hahaha! Oh, Wyatt now you’re sounding narcissistic you know that right. You have just refined your soul energy for 5 minutes and you think you have already met the required degree of purity of your soul energy to nourish your spirit to reality. If you are not being narcissistic then what?” Anna laughed at my words and called me a narcissist, for thinking that I have achieved the required purity for the nourishment of the spirit.
“Could you please check if the degree of purity of my soul energy is enough?” I pleaded to Anna as I stretched my head towards her and circulated my soul energy in it for her to check it.
“Fine, since you insist I will check. But don’t get your hopes up. These things take time… you son of a Banshee. What in the name of Satan? How in the hell is your soul energy so pure and thick? You are not toying with me on purpose are you, Wyatt? I swear If you are I will make you regret it. This is the first time you used a soul energy refining technique in your life right?” Anna grabbed my wrist and began clicking the purity of soul energy reluctantly. But soon she yelled in shock as I proved her wrong once again as my soul energy had met the purity requirement. which led to Anna start doubting that I had already refined my soul energy long ago and was messing with her.
“No, I am not toying with you, Anna. This is the first time I have used a soul energy refining technique in my life, I swear. I always felt my Soul energy get denser and purer every time I went through Baptism. First I thought it was the same for everybody but after learning the soul energy refining technique from you I realised my baptism experience differed from what others experienced. And how hard it is to purify soul energy. Therefore I insisted you verify if the purity of my soul energy had met the requirements. Anyway, what would I get from toying with you Anna?” Yes, I lied my ass off. The two secrets that I would take to my grave were the Calamity Soul Core and the Soul mutation method both of which I created.
Yes, my soul mutation was the reason why my Soul energy was so dense and pure. My soul energy was 4 times denser and purer than regular soul energy. To achieve this degree of purity in soul energy using the basic circulation method even with my soul energy manipulation skill I would require a minimum of 4 years. And for an average talent, it may require 10 to 20 years to reach this level of purification in his soul energy.
The most revolutionary thing was how dense my soul energy was. The basic soul energy circulation technique only helped with refining and purifying the soul energy, not enhancing the quality of the soul energy. For example,
Cow’s milk and Donkey’s milk are not the same as Donkey’s milk is more nutritious compared to Cow’s milk but both are milk at the end and nobody could tell a difference once they were mixed. The fact remains that Donkey’s milk is more nutritious and expensive than Cow’s milk. Similarly, my soul energy was 4 times denser and of better quality than the average soul energy.
“Um, you’re telling me that you were able to achieve this level of dense and pure soul energy due to your special baptism. Um… then that means you have a special physique or a trait stat, don’t you? Only that can explain why your baptism is special and gives you extra benefits.” Anna reached a conclusion I never could have thought of. This conclusion was bad news for me considering how the government was actively recruiting people with the physique or a trait. And also helping the secret clans, families and sects to hide any information about physique and trait stats from the general public.
“…” Anna’s judgment regarding my special baptism caught me off guard and I did not know how to answer her. My words and facial expression froze which was enough to hint Anna to the obvious answer.
“From the look on your face, I take it that my guess about you having an extra physique or a trait stat was right. My god, you are a prodigy. The natural extra stat is a sign of a prodigy.
I liked you a lot, Wyatt. But this information changes everything. What to do? This is difficult, I can’t decide. On the one hand, I want you to be mine but on the other hand, I have to fulfil my duty. Wyatt, you would understand me if I chose the latter right? I am so sorry, Wyatt. I did not want this”
