BXBX NOVEL Chapter 675 The Form?
Gisle left, so Wain and Zero set about absorbing souls. They each had different goals as Wain wanted to light his Third Torch while Zero wanted to reach the limits of the Fourth Chronicle to learn how to reach the Fifth Chronicle.
Souls, one by one, were transformed into streams of energy that were channeled into their Soul Temples. With each soul absorbed, their aura increased, especially Zero\'s as she received energy much faster than Wain.
"Huh, by the looks of things, you\'re seriously ahead of me, right?" Wain asked with a slight smile on his face and eyes closed while absorbing two red souls.
"Yeah. I don\'t know why, but I\'ve always been able to do it so much faster than even the other humans. I only have a few hundred left. It won\'t take more than twenty minutes." Zero said in a careless manner as ten souls exploded around her simultaneously.
\'Well, she better not know why she\'s so good at it.\' Wain muttered inwardly.
In the meantime, Felix continued to enjoy the lake of millions of souls that every few minutes increased by several hundred.
\'The humans... Their soul absorption rate is unimaginable, I couldn\'t believe it, but it turns out that even that isn\'t the limit.\' Felix said to himself while biting his finger in a nervous manner, \'I thought that after the Worlds Merger we would need to reunite with the rest of the Plants Cities as soon as possible, but now I want to stay here. They\'re progressing nicely and there are powerful fighters among them, especially Wain... I knew right away he was different in some way, but what exactly?\'
Crackle.
After a while, one of the buds trembled violently as if there had been a powerful explosion inside.
Felix turned around and with a calm look asked, "Do I need to intervene?"
"No. It\'s okay. I\'m just finishing up." Zero said in a majestic voice as her aura burst out.
She approached the bud, sighed, and her hands became a blur, then two dark blades sliced the bud into small pieces, completely destroying all protective barriers.
"Ah... You could have just asked me to remove it... You didn\'t have to destroy everything... I tried so hard..." Felix muttered while shaking his head.
"Hah, I\'m sorry, I just wanted to test my new powers. I\'ve never felt better than I do now. To fill the Three Torches is something incredible." Zero uttered in an excited manner.
"Well... Now you see the conditions for entering the Fifth Chronicle, right?" Felix asked as he raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah. It\'s going to be hard, but one day I can do it. Now I can focus completely on my training and my skills since I don\'t need the energy anymore." Zero nodded in a serious manner.
"I see..." Felix muttered.
Zero decided to wait for Wain to absorb all the energy, so while Felix watched the soul stream, she stood against the wall with her arms crossed.
\'Damn... There\'s actually quite a lot of energy in these Souls and there\'s still so much of it...\' Wain inwardly muttered while dozens of energy streams were headed his way.

"Well... I filled the second torch to about 20% and spent a third of all my souls on it... so... that should be enough for me to light the third torch." Wain uttered as he swung his hand.
Crackle.
Ten purple souls exploded as energy headed for his chest. All the energy turned into one dense thread that gradually filled the Second Torch, whose flame grew stronger and stronger.
...
"Damn... Your aura has become much more powerful, but what\'s going on in there... looks really dangerous." Felix muttered while looking in Wain\'s direction.
The bud shook as badly as from Zero\'s hit, but it was only because of the tremendous pressure that came from Wain.
"Now it seems to me that my progress was not so incredible... Why is his energy so creepy?" Zero muttered in a curious manner as goosebumps ran down her body.
"Well, we\'ll find out soon enough." Felix muttered in a calm voice, "He\'s been in there four times as long as you have, so he\'s probably finishing by now."
"I hope so." Zero smiled.
At the same time, dozens of messages appeared before Wain, one by one.
[You have absorbed a small amount of Soul Essence. Your Second Torch is 0.05% full]
[You have absorbed an average amount of Soul Essence. Your Second Torch is 0.13% full.]
[You have absorbed a large amount of Soul Essence. Your Second Torch is 0.31% full]
[Your Second Torch is 99.47% full.]
\'Excellent. That one will be enough.\' Wain smiled as he waved his hand.
There were about a hundred more souls hovering beside him, but they were all gone since only one, a massive red soul remained.
Wain touched it with his fingertip, and the soul shattered into tiny particles that traveled down his arm toward his Soul Temple. Then, Wain\'s aura grew several times over, and messages appeared before him.
[You have absorbed an enormous amount of Soule Essence.]
[Your Second Torch is 100% full!]
[Begin the Ignition Process to light the Third Torch!]
[Prepare to burn your Soul!]
[When the Third Torch ignites, your Soul will burn to reveal your true Soul!]
Whoooooooosh.
At the same time, a powerful stream of dark energy burst out of Wain that even passed through the dense petals of the bud.
"Looks like it\'s started." Felix said as he rose up.
"Yeah. It\'s a good thing Wain is here. Such a powerful aura would definitely attract a lot of monsters." Zero nodded.
After a while, the rod glowed brightly and the Third Torch lit up. It was a weak flame, but it was ready to burn his Soul.
