God's Eyes

Chapter 677 - Expelled

Little did Jason know that the 'fun' he had mentioned was anything but that.

Extinguishing the mana vein was not possible because the required heat was too high.

As such, he was forced to expel the mana vein which was more difficult than he could have expected.

On one hand, the clogged state of the Spiral veins had marginally improved when Solaris had cranked up the flame to a certain degree.

However, it was only afterward that the true challenge began which was directly noticeable as Jason inserted his mana, or to be precise a thread of mana into the Spiral Spirit egg.

Not only was this alone already dangerous because it could lead to a complex chain reaction that could be caused by the repulsive energies of spirit force within the Spirit, and his Mana.

Nevertheless, he did what he had to do in order to pull out the dead mana vein.

Because of that, Jason also had to cut the dead mana vein as it was too long, thick and filled with offshoots, preventing him from working on the whole vein at once.

This was, in fact, the most difficult task, and only by being patient and acting slowly, he was able to overcome everything.

Without injuring the Spiral Spirit, Jason used the inserted mana thread to coil around a small part of the mana vein, constricting it before cutting it off with the tip of the same mana thread.

The tip was sharp, and it hurt the Spiral Spirit just a little, but it was not lethal, let alone capable of inflicting a permanent injury.

As such, his new soulbond had to bear with it until Jason was done with the entire procedure that felt like a surgery.

After a fraction of the dead mana vein had been cut off, Jason pulled it out of the Spiral Spirit.

This seemingly simple process took him more than ten minutes because the dead mana vein was not supposed to touch anything.

If it were to come in touch with the deteriorated Spiral cultivation vein, it could scratch through the vein while being pulled outside. The result would be that the already fragile yet intact vein in the vicinity might rip apart, damaging the Soul Spirit.

Cold sweat trickled down Jason's back, plastering his clothes to his skin, which made Petri grumble as he didn't want the sweat of Jason to pass on to him.

Despite that, he couldn't care less about Petri's opinion right now as a part of the dead mana vein had been expelled out of the Spiral Spirit.

When that happened, a reeking stench permeated the entire room.

Because of that, Jason burned that strand of the vein without a second of hesitation before averting his attention back to the Spiral Spirit egg.

Hours flew by, and more than a day had passed when Jason decided to take a break.

His entire concentration had been used up, and his head was aching as if it would blow apart at any moment.

Nevertheless, a faint smile emerged on his exhausted face.

Taking his time to inspect the Spiral Spirit egg, Jason clearly knew that he had barely expelled a part of the mana vein.

However, that was already enough for him to feel great because it wouldn't take much longer before the entire dead mana vein was to be fully expelled.

His goal was at most a few days away from him, which made him want to quickly finish the procedure without taking a break.

Unfortunately, this was not something he could negotiate and a necessity if he didn't want to make any mistakes.

As such, he decided to take a quick shower, and ease his mind by eating something nutritious.

It had been a long time since Jason was able to savor the food. Thus, he took his time relishing in the taste without thinking about the Spiral Spirit.

There were many things that had changed about the malnourished beast, but the most important was that the provided soul energy helped improve its condition by a large margin.

Now, it wasn't malnourished anymore and appeared to be rather well-nourished.

Because of that, the Spiral vein, which had been freed from the clogged upstate to a certain extent, was being nurtured.

This helped the Spiral vein swiftly recuperate and now was also able to circulate a small amount of spirit force through its body.

Through that, it was possible for it to finally annex the spirit force that had long since rested within its Spiral vein.

After that, the Spiral Spirit began to absorb some of the surrounding spirit force before focusing on using the cultivation energy to nurture its body.

Even if it was not well nourished, the provided soul energy was not a permanent measure.

Thus, Jason was glad that the Spiral Spirit finally started to cultivate properly, increasing the egg's size by producing more liquid.

When it would have attained the size it required to hatch, the Spirit would slowly liquefy the solidified parts of its body before finally hatching.

When it hatched, a certain shape would be revealed, becoming the true form of the spirit.

Jason had already heard many things about the true form of spirits.

During the bi-annual auction house event, he had listened intently to the pieces of information that were revealed by the powerhouses in the VVIP lounge.

As such, it was most likely true owing to the fact that a powerhouse that lived for millennia was unlikely to have acquired wrong intel, even less about something shallow such as the most basic information about Spirits.

Thus, the true form of a Spirit was what it could maintain instinctively, without the need to focus on anything.

Meanwhile, it was still possible for the Spirit to change into all kinds of forms, with the only condition that it required extreme focus to make it happen.

The complexer the shape, the more focus was required.

Because of that, the final form of a Spirit was essential to determine its ability to fight!

Some forms were simply unsuitable for combat because they might look like a Wolf, only to lack an entire leg, fangs, and so on.

For such a Spirit, it would be difficult to fight.

Fortunately, it was rare to encounter such Spirits, and Jason hoped that his soulbond wouldn't be among the unfortunate ones.

In the end, even if his soulbond's form would be completely unsuitable for combat, it was still possible for Jason to reap the benefits of having bound a Spiral beast.

Other than that, adjusting its form by adding a single limb, fangs, or claws wouldn't be much of an issue, and require only a small amount of focus to be maintained.

Thus, Jason was not worried at all, thinking that the Spiral Spirit should be able to do anything as long as it had enough time.

And time was exactly what Jason wanted to give his soulbonds as much as possible, allowing them to grow at a steady pace.

Unfortunately, this was easier said than done because the first of the many series of events was about to occur.

The Grim Reaper was already lurking around the City Lord's abode, which was about to turn into a place where hundreds of beings would meet their final end.

However, the final outcome of the soon-to-occur event would shock both the perpetrator and everyone around the City Lord. Even Luna herself would be shocked to the core despite having prepared for seemingly every scenario that could occur!
