Chapter 106 - Soul Sense



"That thing? Who are you calling that thing?"

A sound came from the white mass or energy, leaving Seth dumbfounded. It was Lexi\'s voice.

Lexi seemed to be mad at him. Calling her a thing, would cost him a lot.

"Wait... Is that you Lexi?" Seth was thoroughly lost.

"Of course, why it wouldn\'t be me?"

"I thought you didn\'t have a body at all, or at least if you had, that you would be a tiny fairy or something like that. Not a white blob of energy."

"Huh? A fairy? Are you trying to please me? Calling me a fairy..."

"Yeah, of course!" Seth took the opportunity to redeem from his error and agreed with whatever she was thinking.

"Actually, I did have a beautiful form before and I could remember a bit of it with the memories that I unlocked, but it was lost due to my detachment from the Primordial Artifact. Now, I\'m reduced to an energy body without a shape."

"Lexi, do you want to regain your previous form?" Seth asked seriously, because he could feel a bit of sadness on her speech.

"Sigh... I want to, but how can I do it?"

"Don\'t worry. I will help you on recovering your powers and your form, and even if it takes a thousand years, I won\'t give up from trying to find a way for it to happen." Seth looked at her with a determined gaze. He was carving this promise deeply inside his heart.

Lexi has saved him many times, but they are existences tied to one another, meaning that she saved herself as well. However, Seth never felt like she was doing something for herself, but for him. After spending so many years together, she had already transcended the threshold of importance for him. She was irreplaceable and he would accomplish whatever things she wanted.

"Seth..." Lexi felt warmth coming from him and couldn\'t help but feel emotional.

"I bet your previous form was a noisy child that bothered that Beyond Infinity with many useless questions all day, ahahaha."

"You! How dare you mock this beautiful ancient spirit? I was way more beautiful than any of those women you are fooling around with every day!"

"Fooling around? I love them, alright?"

"Hmph! Why are you not sitting down and closing your eyes in concentration, like I told you to do before, huh?"

"Alright, alright. I\'ll do it."

Seth sat near the lake of Soul Essence and calmed down. His breathing got really tranquil and he was ready to learn new things from Lexi. Very quickly he entered in a state of a trance.

Lexi went back inside the lake of soul essence and a bit after, Seth felt that there was something stirring his sea of memories, putting a lot of information there. He saw the basics of what is a soul, how to properly use soul energy and how to form soul essence, things that he already knew of, but with a deeper level of details and insights.

Right after, he started to receive information about what to do with it. How to use skills through his Soul Energy and Soul Essence, things his Hades Manual already taught him to do.

Next was something that he was expecting the most. How to increase his soul power.

A very strange and ancient voice started to preach some kind of "Dao" for him.

"A body is nothing more than a vessel for the soul. If a soul lasts forever, then the body can last forever. If the body is stronger than the soul, when it is destroyed, the soul dies. If the soul is stronger than the body, then it will destroy it itself and wander independently."

Seth opened his eyes, coming back from his reverie.

He didn\'t say or do anything. He first kept trying to comprehend those worlds entirely.

After some time, he stood up and entered the lake of his own soul essence. He had received the method on how to cultivate the soul from the information Lexi poured inside his soul essence, where his memories and consciousness laid.

Seth felt the lake water touching his projection and thought about the method to cultivate.

"I have to transform my soul essence and turn it into something else, something that belongs to me."

He took a bit of the "water" inside his hands and tried to feel it better. Tried to understand what it was and how to mold it.

Seth was having a hard time thinking on how to transform it on something that he wanted. Nothing was coming into his minds, but somehow, he had a feeling that there was only a single thing he needed to do.

He remembered some of Lexi\'s words, something she said kept coming back to his mind and refused to leave.

"Purify and nullify... Nihility... If Lexi can purify, then all I need to do is to nullify."

The Soul Essence in the form of water around him started to move restless. Bit by bit, it started to evaporate, turning into a light blue mist. The more he thought of that, the more drops of Soul Essence turned into mist.

Seth entered in a state on enlightenment, losing the track of time while thinking about his soul cultivation. With his eyes close, he let his consciousness go deep into the process.

Just like that, more than ten hours passed by as Seth was in a trance. The mist was now everywhere but the volume of "water" inside the lake, didn\'t seem to diminish at all.

"Hey, Seth. Seth! What are you doing?"

Lexi\'s voice brought Seth back to reality. He didn\'t feel the passage of time, so when he came back, all he could notice was the light blue mist covering everything.

"What have you been doing all this time Seth?"

"What have I been doing? I was following the method you imparted me to cultivate my soul."

"What? Are you sure? If I\'m not wrong, you were supposed to transform your Soul Essence into something else, something solid. Why are you changing it to this mist particles? It is almost gaseous already."

"I tried to follow my instincts while doing it. It was saying for me to nullify it."

"What?! Nullify? Are you trying to erase yourself?" Lexi was exasperated with him already. Every time he would do something risky and unnecessary.

"No, of course not. I felt it was possible, like it was meant to be."

"No way. You better stop it and do it correctly."

"No, Lexi. I did it correctly, just like that method you imparted me said. I didn\'t do anything other than to follow it."

"Hm? Then what were you supposed to get after transforming your soul essence?" Lexi knew what he should be able to do, but she wanted him to realize it himself.

"If I did the process correctly, then I would be considered to have entered the Soul Transformation initial-stage and I should be able to use something called Soul Sense. It is like a scan in area, I think. I never heard of something like that before and if I\'m not wrong, I should be able to scan an area of a thousand meters now."

"That\'s right. Go on and test it."

Seth left his soul space and found himself on the small guest house inside the Allakiir family mansion area.

Since soul cultivation was not something accessible on this planet, Seth knew that there wouldn\'t be a person able to sense his Soul Sense. He didn\'t think twice before activating his soul energy, successfully forming the Soul Sense.

Seth felt his senses expanding and feeling every single thing in a huge area. Every single blade of grass to every single person in an area of a kilometer was visible to him, however, his Soul Sense didn\'t stop there. It continued to expand, covering more and more space, until he could see things over ten thousand meters away from him.

"What?!" Seth was thoroughly shocked.

"What is it, Seth? You can\'t do it, right?" Lexi expected him to fail, since he has done it wrong.

"No! I can actually do it, and I\'m able to see things over a distance of ten kilometers already."

"Ten kilometers? That should be impossible, right?"

Even Lexi could not believe what he just told her.

Seth was having a hard time, trying to concentrate on everything he was currently seeing. So many information was being poured inside his brain, that if he didn\'t have an abnormal soul, he would be writhing in pain and clutching his head right now.

Seth tried to filter everything he was currently seeing, when suddenly he witnessed something that made his perception lock on it.

A very beautiful elf, with long black hair cascading down to her buttocks border, was entering a hot bathtub full of red and pink petals. Seth could see her very clearly, from her beautiful face to her exquisite feet. He saw every part of her body, since she was completely naked.
