Chapter 122 - Bodily Death (2/2)
”I see. Wu Yuanxu…” As if trying to recall something, he constantly tapped the podium. ”Ah! Wu Yuanxu. Earth-Rank, 4th Crest Member. Last recorded soul sultivation at the Advanced Nascent Soul. Current status: bodily death.” He listed off some information, but when he reached the last bit, his expression twitched. He wanted to say something about the ranking. The Anima Syndicate Medallion he had indicated three rankings: Anima Initiate, Anima Lieutenant, and Anima Commander.
However, before he could ask Pinaka's voice resounded in his mind.
”Bodily Death?!” It sounded shocked, and Yan Zaizen was just as shocked.
Bodily Death? That meant he was dead...right?
Wait.
”Bodily Death means he has a soul remnant or second soul! With his soul cultivation, it's impossible to produce a soul remnant, so he must've segregated his soul at birth and linked the two, therefore his memories, instincts, and thoughts would all correspond to this second soul. However, without a body, one could only stay in a state of suspended animation.” Pinaka explained, her voice filled with incredulity.
One must know, the segregation of one's soul was exceptionally difficult to do, and it was essentially impossible as an adult. Only a newborn, with a nascent soul without any memories, instincts, or substantial thoughts created could do that, and that was extreme! The chance to survive was about 10%, but that did not mean it was okay! Afterwards, the segregation of the soul could cause countless problems!
However...if it succeeded…
Hearing Pinaka's explanation, Yan Zaizen's eyes widened with shock. Could this mean...Wu Yuanxu was alive?!
Old Tai's eyes narrowed as he looked at Yan Zaizen, there was like a shroud preventing an in-depth inspection of his soul form. Only thing he could obtain from this youthful man was that his soul cultivation base reached the Aurora Soul Realm, but he couldn't determine its exact stage. Also, his lifeforce was far too vibrant to determine his age. If he went off vibrant lifeforce, then he had just been born. It was a little frustrating, like looking in a fog.
”Wait, where's Wu Yuanxu's second soul?!” Yan Zaizen asked, his voice erratic and filled with excitement. Old Tai was a little shocked, but he regained his calm immediately.
”Currently in our Anima Pond.”
”How can I revive him?!” Yan Zaizen nearly shouted out his lungs with this, his hand grabbing the podium. Wu Yuanxu died because of him, if he could save him, then he wanted to, no, needed to! It has been weighing on his heart for far too long.
”You must either pay 100,000 contribution points or have a status of an Sky-Rank, 9th Crest Member to request it.” Old Tai explained patiently.
What? How much is 100,000 contribution points? How high of a status was a Sky-Rank, 9th Crest Member?
Seeing Yan Zaizen's confusion, Old Tai explained, ”Contribution Points is obtained by doing select missions by the syndicate, turning in materials, pills, or elixirs beneficial to soul development, earning a stipend depending on your status, or turning in unique cultivation methods, arts, and formations relating to the soul.”
”There are Three Ranks: Earth, Sky, and Heaven, with Crests from 1 to 9. Each additional crest can be obtained by turning in contribution points, this will allow you to possess more access to the Anima Syndicate's storage of knowledge in regards to soul cultivation, arts, or materials.” After this explanation, Old Tai waited for Yan Zaizen to digest what was said.
It took him several dozen seconds before his eyes brightened in comprehension, he understood now. Having never personally experienced a contribution points system or this type of ranking, using only a few dozen seconds was already extraordinary. ”Will my soul cultivation base help my status?” He asked, curious if cultivation level mattered, especially since stipends were given to members because of it.
Old Tai was surprised, not many would ask this question right off the bat. This child may seem to be a little slow, but he asked the most important question. Typically, people would start taking out items to see if they were worth anything in exchange, or ask if there were any missions available.
”Of course. One's cultivation base determine your minimum rank and crest status. Initial Nascent Soul: Earth-Rank, 1st Crest. Advanced Nascent Soul: Earth-Rank, 4th Crest. Perfect Nascent Soul: Earth-Rank, 9th Crest. The Sky-Rank and Heaven-Rank are similar, corresponding with the Aurora Soul Realm and Astral Soul Realm respectively.” Old Tai felt happy to get all that out of the way.
Yan Zaizen's eyes lit up in happiness! Currently, his soul cultivation base was at the half-step Perfect Aurora Soul Realm, but it lacked the requisite energy to make that final step. During this time, he's been focused on his qi cultivation base, but if all he needed was to breakthrough, then that was as simple as eating!
”I need a cultivation room!” He shouted.
He was going to save Wu Yuanxu!!!
