Corrupt Creations

The energy she was receiving from Seth didn\'t stop flowing, what made an expression of shock form on her face. She wasn\'t able to understand what kind of cultivation was this, where she had to put almost no efforts and gain a considerable amount of power.

While she was cultivating, Lexi was analyzing everything as Seth conducted the whole process.

"Do not use this technique on the same person again at least for an entire year." After taking her conclusions, she told Seth what she discovered.

"An entire year?! Why do you say that?" He mentally asked.

"Simple. It\'s not because of her body, but using it on a small window of time will make her soul shatter."

"What the fuck?!"

"Hm? That\'s what you should have expected by a technique developed by a god. A mortal won\'t be able to handle it, even though it is on its primitive form."

"Primitive form? Do you know how it will transform after I get stronger?"

"It\'s not going to transform, but enable you to share other things. I was able to figure this out just now. Try paying close attention to Rina\'s Evergreen Essence. You are capable of doing that, since you share a soul connection with her."

"Alright."

Seth did as Lexi had said, concentrating on observing the signals coming from her Evergreen Essence.

Suddenly, Seth stood up in shock, making Rina open her eyes and stop cultivating. Not because he stopped supplying her energy, but because she had absorbed all her body was able to handle.

She was feeling like she was almost able to advance her strength once again, but the Mana she received had to be properly converted in order for her to assimilate it with hers. But those next steps, she would have to thread alone.

However, she forgot about the cultivation topic, when she noticed Seth was making a very funny face while looking at her. He had his mouth wide open and she would be able fit to her entire small fist there if she wanted.

"What is it? Did I do something wrong?"

"No! Rina, try to use your Evergreen Essence now."

Rina lifted her hand, using the same Evergreen Essence she has always used. That mild and warm green energy seemed harmless and vivid, just like the vibrant green color plants had.

But suddenly, she felt something different, something changing. She was able to feel another form of Evergreen Essence available for her to use. Without thinking twice, she tried releasing that second form of Evergreen Essence.

The vibrant green light around her hand turned dark green and at the same time, the energy started to behavior violently, trying to infect anything around it.

Her healing essence was turning into poison, albeit it was way weaker than the poison Seth and her mother were able to produce.

"W-What it this? How am I able to use this?"

Seth was just as perplexed as she was. He was able to improve her Evergreen Essence through the Soul Resonance. No, actually, he was able to transmit some of his Evergreen Essence source for her.

He quickly checked his own situation, trying to see if he had lost too much of that energy source, but then, he got shocked once again. He didn\'t lose a single bit of quality on his Evergreen Essence, yet he was able to improve hers.

\'What sorcery is this?\'

The Soul Link was improved. An improvement Seth would never dare to think about happened.

"This seems to be the poisonous energy mother is able to use... How did this happen?" Rina was moving her Evergreen Poison up and down, trying to feel it better.

"Rina, as I\'ve said. The Soul Link is a power left behind by an ancient god, it\'s only natural it would be able to create an unexpected effect like this. Don\'t be harsh while using it, try to get accustomed with how your Evergreen Essence was modified on your next cultivation sessions."

Rina nodded, still amazed with what had happened. She kept feeling how her Evergreen Essence had improved, even forgetting everything else besides that.

Seth saw she was entertained by that and decided to leave and do what he needed to do. He had only one way to go to the Glazed Lake Sect, and it required Jiang Yi\'s help. But the way he was going to ask her for help would be a bit peculiar, and that required him to monitor some of her activities.

Two days later, Jiang Yi had finished putting every single gift she received inside her spatial ring, together with all her other things and even more things her father had given her. She was practically a walking merchant guild at the moment, full of things even she didn\'t know for what purpose they served for.

Jiang Yi was preparing for her departure, because the day for her to join the Glazed Lake has come.

She still remembered the events that happened some days ago, leaving a strange taste of defeat in her mouth, something she hadn\'t felt before. Until the present moment, she didn\'t know what that mysterious man really wanted, nor who he actually was.

Impressively, her desire to know more about him and conquer him as a personal toy, had grown exponentially, even though she knew she was probably not his match in terms of strength.

As some people say, the harder the challenge, the greater the will to overcome it.

When she opened the door of her room to leave, she saw the figure of her father, waiting to say his goodbye. His eyes were red and wet, because he got emotional that his little angel would leave his home.

"Jiang Yi, my daughter, I will miss you so much."

"Father, mother, I will miss you too."

Her mother was standing beside her father, but her condition was relatively better than his.

"I\'ve told butler Zhao to be your driver and he is already waiting for you outside."

"Okay, thank you father."

After hugging both of them, Jiang Yi left her father\'s mansion, entering the blue carriage butler Zhao was in charge of driving.
