Unlike Frazier, Jacob did not care about Tigron's skin and tendons because the statue before him was worth even more.
Having been around for thousands of years, the statue has probably absorbed an immeasurable amount of spiritual energy. If I can use it as a source, I believe I'll be able to improve myself even further. I might even become a Manifestor.
Jacob's spiritual sense slowly emanated from his body to envelop the statue.
He hoped to uncover all the statue's secrets with Tigron finally out of the way.
However, just as Jacob's spiritual sense was about to shroud the statue, a flash of golden light suddenly cut him off.
Immediately after that, the statue's eyes lit up as if it had come alive. "Ignorant human, you will be punished…"
Bursts of bell-like sounds could be heard from inside the statue before Jacob felt blood crawl up his throat and out of his mouth.
