Corrupt Creations-Chapter 334 - Evil Spirits

Seth stopped what the was doing and stood in silence for some seconds.

"Sigh... You're right. Even though those abilities are practically overkill against weaker opponents, they are more like a useful tool when fighting against stronger enemies. However, whenever I use a soul related skill during combat, I feel like it consumes too much of my mental and even physical energy. It's more like a burden than a helpful boon during the battle."

Seth was telling the truth, but he decided to not tell her the fact, that he felt his current soul skills and even the state his soul was in, was not what it was meant to be. That sensation he felt was really strange for him and he still didn't know what it was.

"As I thought..."

"What do you think I should do?"

"Don't worry, I have something to tell you and it will help you dealing with those problems as well." As Lexi was speaking, there was a very suspicious smile forming on her lips.

"Eh? What is it?"

"Well... Uhm... Do you still remember the crystal that Velgor tried to use to control your and Serene's soul?"

"The crystal you destroyed? I do."

"So... I just didn't simply destroy it. At that time, the link it formed between the three of you was so strong, that I was able to absorb all the energy and the information it had, before it was destroyed. And because of that, I have actually kind of "evolved"."

Seth didn't know how to properly react to what she was telling him yet; however, he was able to perceive one thing.

"So that's why you've been so quiet these past few days! It turns out that you've been eating and sleeping even harder than ever before!"

"What are you trying to say?!"

"You're just like an evil spirit of gluttony!"

"What?! Humph! Who's the one that not even a day after waking up, had already shown his predator fangs in front of all those girls? You're the one that's just like an evil spirit of lust!"

"..." Seth got speechless. Lexi was even better than him while cursing already.

"While I was working hard to get stronger and learn new things, you were rolling naked on the bed, together with those women!"

Seth almost had the urge to spit blood when he heard Lexi saying she was "working hard", but before he could say anything, she continued talking.

"I went as far as eatin... Erhem... Absorbing all the purple Skystone energy contained inside that crystal, just to get stronger a bit faster..."

Seth was about to berate her, when her words kind of shocked him.

"Wait... Did you say there was an energy from a purple Skystone inside that crystal?"

"Hm? Yes. That Velgor guy had probably charged up that crystal with lots of purple Skystones before going to the battle at that day. Probably hundreds of them." 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

"Hundreds...?" Seth almost couldn't believe that Velgor would have so many purple Skystones available to use. The fact that he used them on a broken ass crystal was really strange as well. He remembered at that time when he dueled with Qiao Bao to earn him some extra purple Skystones, but he knew the quantity he won was not even close to that number.

'Maybe he found out about the purple Skystone mine?'

Seth realized that maybe Velgor had looted that mine before the Lion's Pride Golden Palace was able to. In that case scenario, if he and the Huo Sisters were to find some more of those purple Skystones hidden inside the Demonic Shadow Royal Clan, they would be able to develop the Blazing Phoenix Country very quickly and safely.

"Hmph! Because of that, I was actually able to improve in many areas. I most probably won't need a mediator to act anymore and I can even help you out in some of your battles now."

"What?! Is that real?" Seth got genuinely impressed after hearing her words.

"It is. However, I have absolutely zero physical combat power and will have to stick to purification abilities and some soul related skills."

"Good! Wait... What kind of soul techniques?"

"Ehehehe, actually, I will only be able to perform very weak soul techniques, but I can ease that burden you feel when you use some of those powerful soul skills. Other than that, look at this..." Lexi made a purple crystal appear in front of Seth.

He immediately recognized it. It was actually a skillbook. However, he didn't know from where and when Lexi had acquired it.

"What is this?"

"You should read its contents. You'll understand where it comes from."

Seth felt like following her advice and touched the skillbook. Just as his hand made contact with it, he was brought to a purple world, where he was able to learn the Soul Trap technique, together with some soul controlling techniques that were bound to the Banshee Crystal Core. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮

When Seth left from that world, he was really impressed by what Lexi had accomplished.

"Lexi, I'm really sorry. I was totally wrong... Please continue sleeping and eating in order to bring me some more of these absurd techniques."

"Hmph! You should really feel sorry, since I'm not a perverted beast like you are. And that purple skillbook is not even the best thing I got out of that crystal. There is this one as well. However, this one I created it myself, after using the energy I gained from that."

Lexi made another purple crystal appear in front of Seth; however, this particular crystal had a lighter color and its contents were a bit different. Inside of it, there was not only a powerful technique, but something that would be the motive of a full-scale war in the whole continent if it were to be found out by the greedy fellows out there.

When Seth touched it, a lot of information poured inside of his mind. Most of that information was not really useful for him, but it was totally useful for his women.. And that's because that crystal contained a way to cultivate their souls.
