"It is Soul Essence!"
The lady sighed in amazement. At first, she could not bring herself to believe Emrys possessed Soul Essence, however, the repeated use of Soul Essence gave her no choice but to believe that her senses were not lying. Emrys was indeed using Soul Essence to refine and purify the Soul Orbs.
"What a waste of Soul Essence. Soul Essence is an extraordinary treasure for Soul Masters. Even Purple Crystal Soul Masters could not use it; a single drop of Soul Essence could distort and heavily injure their souls. Only Soul Masters several realms above the Purple Crystal Soul Masters could even consider absorbing Soul Essence, and even to them, Soul Essence is a treasure worth causing a worldwide war. However, this little guy, who isn't even a Bronze Soul Master, not only has Soul Essence hidden within his body but can also utilize it. Furthermore, he's actually squandering Soul Essence on these trinkets. Since he can already use Soul Essence, why doesn't he use it to increase his strength? Just a single drop of Soul Essence is enough to raise his cultivation all the way to Secret Silver Soul Master."
Firstly, she was already marveling as to how Emrys was able to awaken his Soul Mark despite having been cursed by a horrible curse. Not to mention, he should have either awakened an Ice-attributed Soul Mark or a Lightning-attributed Soul Mark, but he actually awakened a Spatial-attributed Soul Mark.
Now that Emrys showed yet another mysterious act of using Soul Essence even though he has yet to step on the path of Soul Cultivation truly, the beautiful lady was increasingly intrigued by him. She could not help but become more and more interested in his secret. Not only was she fascinated by Emrys and curious about several aspects of his being, but her resolve to train him was also becoming stronger and stronger.
The more mysterious Emrys appeared to be, the more she desired to use Emrys to complete her own agenda.
Of course, she would not take advantage of Emrys. She would properly train and give him enough benefit to rise to the rank of those old monsters controlling the world from the dark.
Emrys, on the other hand, not knowing that one of his secrets had been exposed to a mysterious lady, hesitated a little before choosing to refine and purify the Green Soul Orb as well.
As he added points, a soft blue light shimmered through the surroundings before calming down and disappearing.
This time, purifying and refining the Green Soul Orb consumed 10 Soul Points.
After doing all this, he looked at the remaining Soul Points in his possession.
[Soul Points: 222]
Looking at the remaining Soul Points, Emrys's heart ached a little. After all, he risked his life in order to gather so many Soul Points, spending a total of seven days inside the dangerous forest.
However, when it comes to consuming the Soul Points, it has not even been five minutes and 50 Soul Points disappeared from his account.
It has to be known that he can only obtain one Soul Point every day. In other words, the soul points he had consumed in a matter of five minutes would have normally taken him fifty days to collect.
The more Emrys thought like this, the more his heart ached. But he knew he had to change his viewpoint of looking at things.
Taking a deep breath, Emrys climbed on the bed and decided to take a good nap.
The next day, Emrys left the house after breakfast. He still had a big backpack on his back.
No, he was not going to the Twin Mountain Forest again. Currently, his target was a tower located in a city called Crystal City. This was a very big city that controlled dozens of small cities such as Midnight City, Emberwood City, and Dark River City.
Several big forces were located within this city. Countless Soul Masters dream of joining these forces. Even Emrys wanted to join any one of these forces after becoming a Bronze Soul Master.
Emrys had already booked a ticket to Crystal City in advance. He boarded the high-speed train and arrived at Crystal City.
After leaving the station, he took a flying taxi that brought him all the way to the center of the city.
In the middle of the city stands a tall tower, stretching high into the sky with over 10 floors. Each floor is unique and designed differently from the others. The outer surface of the tower is adorned with intricate patterns, making it stand out amidst the surrounding buildings.
This tower is known as the 'Trade Association', the central power that governs the market. The Trade Association is a force controlled by the highest-ranking people sitting in the Federation that controls the direction of the world. It serves as a marketplace where people can come to buy and sell authentic treasures at their true value.
Emrys arrived in front of the Trade Association and took a deep breath. He was already taken aback after witnessing the appearance of this tall tower.
As Emrys entered the ground floor of the Trade Association, he was greeted by a spacious hall adorned with shimmering lights and elegant decorations. The layout of the floor was organized into various sections, each showcasing different types of treasures. In one corner, rare artifacts gleam under spotlights, while in another, precious gemstones sparkle in glass displays.
A crowd bustled about the hall, dressed in a myriad of attire that also reflected their diverse backgrounds. Some wore sleek business suits, exuding an air of professionalism, while others wore tight uniforms and Nano-biochemical Suits adorned with intricate patterns.
At the heart of the hall stood a central platform, where a recipient dressed in a simple yet dignified attire presided over the bustling activity. Their gaze was keen and their manner composed as they oversaw the transactions taking place.
With practiced ease, they guided buyers and sellers alike, ensuring fair deals and maintaining order within the bustling marketplace.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, the air was filled with excitement and anticipation.
Emrys was dazzled at first. He snapped back to reality only after hearing someone coughing beside him, but when he turned to look, there was no one. Currently, he alone was standing a few steps ahead of the entrance.
