Chapter 922: Unnatural (2/2)
But those crystal balls Han Shuo presented will allow them to skip all that time and effort!
Not just Han Shuo’s harem, but even old fellas like Stratholme and Ayermike were in raptures. Ayermike looked at Han Shuo in disbelief and emotionally asked, “Bryan, how did you do that? We have lived on Elysium for a while now but never had we heard that it is possible to artificially erase the self-awareness of a soul without damaging it. That is miraculous! I think even those Quintessence Overgods cannot do so!”
Aykermike’s words had reminded the party just how difficult it was to erase the self-awareness of a highgod soul and to somehow prevent it from naturally degrading and vanishing into the world.
During the many years they lived on Elysium, they learned that it was only in a certain extremely unique environment and under unique circumstances that a divine soul without self-awareness could form. But this was an extremely rare natural phenomenon.
They had never heard it be achieved artificially!
Naturally, Han Shuo wouldn’t explain his ability granted by demonic arts to alter souls. He smiled and replied, “Don’t bother asking how I did it, just focus on fusing with these highgod souls and assimilate their knowledge. After obtaining the understanding and comprehension they had accumulated over the centuries, you will all obtain breakthroughs very easily. With sufficient divine energy, you will reach highgodhood in just a few years!”
The party was overjoyed. Next, they each received a crystal ball of their energy following Han Shuo’s assignment.
“Most of the souls are in the mid-stage highgod realm and a few of them are in the late-stage highgod realm. The information contained in their souls would be extremely enormous. Take caution when assimilating their souls. Do not try to take in everything in one shot, lest your soul crumbles!
The special container you are holding stops their soul from degrading and dissipating. So take your time and absorb their knowledge bit by bit in intervals. Again, do not more than what you can handle!” warned Han Shuo when he saw the ecstatic faces of the party.
“Don’t worry, Bryan. We’ve got it!” said Emily cheerfully. No one could be happier than her and Phoebe. During the past many years, they had placed most of their energy on Celestial Pearl and did not have as much time to cultivate as the others did.
Therefore, in the House of Han, Phoebe and Emily had been making relatively slow progress, especially in their realm state. Despite having the privilege to enjoy more divine essences than the others, they stagnated in their cultivation as they were bottlenecked by their realm states which needed time that they did not have. They had been feeling rather worried about falling too far behind the others.
But now, with these crystal balls, that will no longer be an issue.
“This act is against the natural order. We need to keep this a top-secret, no outsider must know anything about this! Godhunters are Elysium’s public enemy for consuming another person’s divine energy. What we are doing is the same as consuming another person’s soul. This would be more outrageous than what the godhunters are doing. We must never, ever reveal a thing about this. Otherwise, the House of Han will become Elysium’s public enemy!” warned Ayermike gravely.
“That’s right. This is why I had dismissed the House of Han guards earlier. Only we who came from the Profound Continent can know about this. Keep this knowledge within this circle. And if you want to exchange your findings, only do so in a secret chamber!” warned Han Shuo gravely.
After hearing the warnings, everyone in the room understood the importance of keeping it a secret as what Han Shuo did was a hundred times more appalling than what the godhunters did. They withdrew their smiles and solemnly swore not to divulge a thing to outsiders.
“Good, I believe everyone understands how important this is,” Han Shuo smiled and continued, “Alright, you all be careful. We will be moving to the Pandemonium after I’ve met Ossora. Over there, you won’t have to worry about anyone finding out. With layers of demonic formations around it, even the Sovereign cannot glimpse into the Pandemonium!”
Other than Sanguis and Bollands, every House of Han members received a crystal ball. Even Gilbert received the soul of a mid-stage highgod of darkness.
With those divine souls and the tremendous financial power of the House of Han, Han Shuo believed that it wouldn’t be long before these people would soon possess powerful strengths and he could spend less time worrying for their safety.
