Chapter 45: Ch 45: Elysia Nightshade
Emrys looked directly into the lady\'s viridian eyes and almost lost himself on the spot. Fortunately, the mysterious existence helped him come back to his senses once again. This time, his heart was stirred even more.
The beautiful lady raised her brows in surprise. She hadn\'t expected Emrys to regain his composure so quickly after meeting her gaze. She knew all too well that her eyes were her most potent asset when it came to captivating others. It wasn\'t intentional; her beauty was simply an innate, formidable weapon bestowed upon her from birth. She had been this way from the very beginning.
Observing how quickly Emrys regained his composure, a nod of acknowledgment silently escaped her lips. It was clear to her that the mysteries concealed within Emrys\'s being were far from ordinary. In fact, the more it is like this, the stronger her conviction grew that Emrys held the potential to fulfill her objectives. All she needed to do was guide him properly.
"My name is called Elysia Nightshade."
She smiled at Emrys and finally introduced her name. Then she pointed at Emrys\'s dark body and said, "Let\'s talk about me later. Why don\'t you first use the Soul Essence to purify the blade? Although it\'ll be a waste of Soul Essence, you have already wasted about half a drop. As long as the blade is purified with Soul Essence, it will lose its demonic nature. Since it is the source, the sinister energy engulfing your body will also disappear!"
Emrys took a deep breath. Indeed, she is right. They could talk about her later; for now, the priority was to rid himself of the sinister energy threatening to consume him entirely.
\'Eh, when did it stop trying to engulf him?\'
Only now did Emrys notice that the dark energy had stopped spreading on his body for some reason? He looked at Elysia Nightshade and then looked at the dark energy that had already covered more than half of his body. He is not sure, but he has a feeling that she must have stopped the spread of dark energy.
"What is Soul Essence?"
Emrys did not thank him. It is useless to thank her if he could not even get rid of the sinister energy.
"I expected you to not know, but knowing that you really don\'t know is disappointing." Elysia sighed and then said, "I\'ve mentioned this before, but I\'ve been observing you for a few days now. I witnessed how you used Soul Essence to evolve those seemingly insignificant orbs. While evolving them to a higher level and nurturing your Soul Mark with that level of orb is indeed advantageous, it\'s undeniable that you\'ve squandered nearly half a drop of Soul Essence on them. You can\'t fathom how precious Soul Essence truly is, at least at your current level."
Emrys was stunned. He immediately understood that Elysia was talking about Soul Points. What surprised him was that the thousands of Soul Points he used were not even a drop of Soul Essence. They combined barely made half a drop of Soul Essence.
The most surprising thing for him is the way Elysia put Soul Essence in light.
What does she mean that at his current level, the Soul Essence is more precious than he could think?
Seeing his confused expression, Elysia sighed and asked, "First, tell me how you obtained Soul Essence? How many drops do you have in your possession?"
Emrys was alerted. His senses always warned him to stay away from this lady, as if she was an extremely dangerous being, capable of killing him in an instant.
When she asked about Soul Essence, he could not help but think that she was not taking action against him might be because she wanted to know how many Soul Points (Soul Essence) he had in hand.
Elysia shook her head, perfectly guessing Emrys\'s thoughts. She said, "Don\'t worry, I pose no threat to you. I have no bad intentions. As for Soul Essence..."
She spread her palm in front of him, and a small amount of dense liquid slowly appeared on her palm. It is unknown how many drops of them were there, but they were extremely pure and captivating. Even Emrys was moved. He had never actually seen Soul Essence. Even if his Soul Points are Soul Essence, in reality, he was unable to see or touch them. He can only use them.
Seeing Soul Essence in front of his eyes, he could breathe the purity they were discharging in the air. A comfortable wave of tranquility ran through his entire body. In that instant, he felt a profound sense of peace and clarity wash over him, soothing every nerve and muscle. It was as if the very essence of serenity had enveloped him, calming the storm of thoughts and emotions. He felt like entering a peaceful state where there was no noise, worry, or violence. His disposition improved greatly just by inhaling the air of breath that is touched by the Soul Essence.
"What do you think?"
Elysia smiled and closed her palm. The Soul Essence in her hand disappeared tracelessly, as if they never appeared. However, the air affected by their appearance was proof of their existence.
"Umh?"
Emrys was confused for a moment, not knowing what to say. This was the first time he saw Soul Essence in person. His heart told him that he would benefit greatly if he could absorb them. His cultivation will soar to an entirely new height.
It is a pity that he could not do that. Those Soul Essence were not his.
Elysia frowned seeing him like this. From her perspective, Emrys already possessed Soul Essence, indicating he had undergone the same stimulation he experienced just now upon encountering the Soul Essence. Perhaps it was due to this that he never truly took the Soul Essence out; rather, he utilized a secret method to indirectly infuse part of the Soul Essence Drop to evolve the Soul Orbs.
Unbeknownst to her, this was the first time Emrys saw Soul Essence, and she was the one to show him.
