Chapter 674 - Evolution
Chapter 674 – Evolution
Jason held the Frozen Lunarium right in front of Artemis, who immediately lunged at it, devouring the orb without a single moment of hesitation.
After she gulped it down, nothing happened for several seconds, until the energies within the Frozen Lunarium were finally released.
Artemis' stomach first disintegrated the outermost layer of the Frozen Lunarium only for her to shriek loudly as the unleashed energies began to merge with her body.
Through his Emperor Eyes, Jason was able to see everything that was happening, and he couldn't help but feel that it looked unique and completely different from what he expected.
Even if he was not sure what he thought was what he was supposed to see, it was what he saw right now.
The properties within the Frozen Lunarium spread through Artemis' entire body and it didn't take long before everything seemed to change.
While Artemis released her own mana, the Frozen Lunarium began to sweep through her mana core, forcing it to transform.
At the same time, the remaining energy swept through her cells, invigorating and preparing her for the evolution process that had just been initiated.
With every single cell in her body being oversaturated, Artemis was overflowing with energy, which caused white strands of energy to emerge from her body.
They radiated from around the mana core that seemed to crumble due to the terrific energy waves the Frozen Lunarium was unleashing.
Yet, the moment the mana core even cracked a little, it was repaired, reinforced, and further enhanced through the nourishment of the Frozen Lunarium.
Because he was able to see all of this happen in a short period, Jason couldn't help but feel astonished.
His entire focus was trained on Artemis.
Thus, he didn't even notice that Jennifer and the City Lord were also eyeing the situation but with an utterly dumbfounded expression.
They were rendered speechless for some time, and it was only when Jennifer mumbled something that the City Lord regained her senses while Jason lifted his head to look at them.
"That owl ate the unrefined Frozen Lunarium…it's raw, how the hell did it not die?!"
Seeing the two women's expressions, Jason couldn't help but be reminded of how the Flers had reacted when he had given Artemis a Lique rank mana core.
At that time, they had looked at him with the same bewildered expression.
However, now there was an extraordinary prodigy and powerhouses looking at him in the same way as the Flers.
This caused him to smile faintly as he cleared the air before the situation could escalate.
"Artemis is a mutated beast. If I'm not wrong she can devour almost everything. Mana cores, mana stones, and even transmuted energies are no problem for her.
Unfortunately, I don't know the limits of her evolution, but Artemis wanted the Frozen Lunarium because she was confident to evolve through it.
That's why I bought it…."
While he explained Artemis' condition to a certain extent, he couldn't help but justify his reasoning through it.
Despite that, both Jennifer and the City Lord were still staring at him, dumbfounded that he retorted to such a barbaric tactic to hasten his soulbond's evolution.
Under normal circumstances, one would have extracted the necessary main ingredient's essence, refined it with other ingredients that unleashed the main ingredient's full potential before creating a serum for the beast to eat.
This serum had to meet certain requirements such as slowly releasing its effects, preventing the beast from tearing apart by initiating the evolution too hastily.
Furthermore, one would normally know what kind of an existence a beast was supposed to evolve into, so that the evolution serum would be altered to suit the evolved beast's state perfectly.
However, in Jason and Artemis' situation, this was completely different!
Not only was Artemis demanding the raw and unrefined energies from the Frozen Lunarium as it is, but from the looks of it, it didn't seem like she was bothered about the toxicity in the outer layers of the orb she was slowly disintegrating.
Meanwhile, Jason didn't even know what kind of beast Artemis would evolve in.
As such, the City Lord couldn't help but feel like dismissing Jason as she replied,
"Just do…whatever you're doing…but as mentioned earlier, follow the plan I have set up. It's important to do that so that you're prepared to be assassinated!"
It sounded weird to hear that one should be prepared to be assassinated, but Jason understood what the City Lord meant by that.
As such, he looked at Artemis, whose entire body was about to be enveloped in a white shroud, one more time before bringing her back to the soul world.
Afterward, he simply said,
"I will be in my room and bind the Spiral Spirit egg to me. It's possible that I will visit the auxiliary tower from time to time during the next few days, but other than that, I will stay inside the manor.
That should be more than enough to follow the plan as of now, right?"
The City Lord nodded her head, before dismissing him with a wave of her hand.
Because of that, Jason quietly left, while looking at the Spiral Spirit Egg, whose hue was a mixture of all potential hues he had seen, in addition to a silver and golden hue.
In the end, all of these hues were enveloped by the semi-translucent color his other soulbonds also had.
Because of that, he couldn't help but feel that the dead mana veins were the restriction that was put on the Spiral Spirit Egg.
Owing to the mixture of all potential hues which was something his eyes could perceive since the moment he gained his eyesight, Jason knew that the Spiral Spirit Egg was something unique, which was, in fact, not difficult to figure out.
The other Grand Spirit Eggs had only released the semi-translucent hue, which was what Jason assumed made them have limitless potential.
However, that was also not completely correct, as Jason had only realised this after spending several months on Manyr.
Apart from the translucent potential hue that was supposed to indicate not being restricted by potential, Jason knew that there were racial limits, along with other restrictions such as impurities, disease, and mutations.
Despite the other restrictions, the first indicator of someone's potential was the most important.
Yet, it was completely useless to have limitless potential if a beast's race prevented one from increasing one's strength further.
As such, after reaching the racial limit, a beast either had to break through said limit, and slowly increase its strength just as Artemis was doing, or one had to evolve.
Through an evolution, all attributes of a beast were bound to be enhanced, including the racial limit that could be said to reset after an evolution.
That was why evolutions were so important, and the reason for Jason to give his soulbonds the best possible nourishment to evolve.
Owing to the potential he could see in beasts, Jason would bind them to his soul because there were several things a beast was unable to do without the necessary potential, even if it might be trivial things it was missing out on.
However, that was not the case every single time because he would rather follow his instincts and gut feeling than the logical way of explaining specific things.
This was the reason why Jason had decided to purchase the Spiral Spirit egg, and why he would bind it to his soul too!
Following his gut feeling had always proven to be the correct choice so far, and every single time something bad had happened, his instincts had clearly warned him.
Whether this was a premonition, or something similar to being able to foretell events, Jason didn't care because the most important was that his premonition had never proven to be wrong!
It was the exact same reason for why things were going to unfold the way they would because the premonition that clung to him was the most distinct and worst he had ever felt before!
There was not a single event, but a chain of events that were bound to change the lives of every single being living in the Julandra region!
Jason was unable to decipher the premonition, let alone when the devastating events would actually kickstart.
However, if Jason would have known that everything was bound to happen much sooner than expected, he wouldn't have held back in his pursuit of binding a small number of soulbonds with high potential.
Instead, he would have bound as many soulbonds as his physique and vessel could take, just to prevent the worst possible outcome of the events that approached them slowly!
