Main Text Volume Chapter 387 The Function of the Soul Bead

It seems that there are only two choices.

Either purify your soul or get things back on track.

"If I change the rules set by the Black Castle in the past, what will be the consequences for me."

The high priest shook his head after a long time and said, "I don't know."

"Then let me ask you in another way. If I choose to change the selection location, what changes will your clan have?"

The high priest still shook his head.

"Didn't you say that you are looking forward to change?"

The high priest: "Your arrival is a variable. The change of selection is also a variable. When variables accumulate one by one, it may not be possible to pry open a page of change."

The high priest's tone reminded Angel of a person-the prophecy apprentice who always wears a white bear doll costume, Hobson.

Since the high priest didn't know the consequences, Angel could only think for himself.

Weigh the pros and cons.

Let's talk about your own benefits first. It can purify the soul and make the soul more refined. This is indeed attractive to Angel, but in fact other methods can also purify the soul, such as using potions.

What Angel is more concerned about is: What effect can soul purification have on the gravity veins in my soul?

Angel is currently unable to mobilize the gravity veins in the soul. Even if he really mobilizes them, it will consume a lot of soul power, which he cannot bear at present.

If soul purification can slightly solve the problem of gravity veins, even if the gravity veins are extracted from the soul. Angel is willing to fight for it.

Thinking of this, Angel asked: "You once said that the gray breath in my soul also needs a rain. So, if I choose to purify my soul, what effect will it have on the gray breath?"

The high priest was silent for a moment: "The gray breath in your soul is the condensation of the law, right?"

Angel nodded.

"Ordinary soul purification has no effect on the law veins in your soul. But the secret treasure has been nourishing in the soul source, and it has also been stained with a trace of the breath of the law of life soul, which should make the law veins in your soul clearer and more condensed."

Make the law veins clearer and more condensed? If there is only this point, Angel feels that it is a bit tasteless and a pity to throw it away.

In terms of his "benefits", it seems to be just average at the moment.

Angell tried to analyze it from the perspective of "disadvantages".

Speaking of disadvantages, Angell actually didn't have a definite answer. Because he didn't know how much the people in the Black Castle valued this matter, and the high priest couldn't explain it clearly.

But it's not impossible to speculate from the side, for example, as long as you know the value of the soul beads, you can measure some clues.

Angell: "You have a grand festival once a year, which means that the main purpose of the people who come to the Holy Castle every year is actually to obtain the soul beads refined by the secret treasure?"

The high priest nodded in response.

"Then what is the use of this soul bead?"

"Before Lady Isabel left, I heard her say that the soul bead is an extremely special and precious soul product. It can not only be used as energy to promote the growth of soul source; it can even be directly absorbed as a supplement to soul power, and it will not be rejected."

After a pause, the high priest suddenly raised his finger and pointed at Angel's chest: "The incomplete soul in your pocket can also be slowly replenished by absorbing soul beads."

...

Incomplete soul? !

Angell moved very slowly and took Toby out of his chest pocket.

"You said, it's a broken soul?" Angell pointed at Toby, whose breathing was steady and all his physical signs were normal, and said word by word.

The high priest asked instead: "Isn't it your magic pet?"

Angell shook his head: "It's not my magic pet, it's my... best friend."

The high priest looked Angel up and down, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Best friend, it seems that it is very important to you."

"Why do you say it's a broken soul?" Angell asked again.

The high priest: "It has been unconscious for a long time, right?"

"More than a week."

"I can sense its soul, which is a peculiar soul that is not inferior to yours. Hey... No, its soul is even more worth looking forward to than yours." The high priest suddenly said: "No, no, it's obviously in the shape of a bird, why can't I feel the feeling of an avian soul, is this really a thing in the world?"

The high priest's words made Angell admire him a little. He almost analyzed Toby's origin just by observing the soul.

Seeing that the high priest seemed to be inclined to continue talking to himself, Angel hurriedly said: "You haven't said why it is a broken soul. And why is it always unconscious? Isn't it advancing?"

"Advancement? Maybe it can be considered that. The reason why it has been unconscious is that its soul is confronting a feeling of anger." The high priest paused: "If he can overcome this anger, it may be considered as an advancement."

"However, from what I can see, the anger has invaded its soul and is slowly eating away at it. If this defect cannot be made up, it will soon become a puppet of anger."

The high priest said a lot, but Angel was completely confused.

The soul is confronting the anger? If it is said that a certain alien soul is fighting with Toby for control of the body, Angel can accept it, but what is anger?

The high priest couldn't answer this: "I don't know what that 'anger' represents, but it is indeed being swallowed by an emotion with strong 'anger', and the soul is already broken."

"Then how can we wake it up?" Angell focused all his attention on Toby at this time, and threw all other trivial matters out of his mind.

"I said that as long as it can overcome anger, it can not only wake up, but also advance as you said. But it seems that its soul has been eaten away for a long time, and it has been damaged too much. It is difficult to overcome anger."

Angel narrowed his eyes slightly, and his thoughts flew quickly.

"As long as the soul is replenished, can anger be overcome?"

The high priest: "Replenishing the soul power only gives it the strength to overcome anger. Whether it can overcome it in the end depends on itself."

"You just said that the soul bead can make up for its incomplete soul."

The high priest nodded, as if he saw through Angell's thoughts: "I know what you want to say. Even if you choose not to change the selection location, the soul bead you get in the end is not enough to repair its soul."

Angel remembered that the day before yesterday, Toby ran to the temple on the top of the mountain in sleepwalking. At first, he thought that the source of the law was tempting it, but now he thinks... maybe Toby is just sending him a distress signal.

"There should be a soul bead in the temple on the top of the mountain, right?"

The high priest showed a look of surprise on his face: "How do you know?"

Angel told him about Toby's "sleepwalking" the day before yesterday, and the high priest suddenly said: "It seems that he is indeed sending you a distress signal. In fact, there is no soul bead on the top of the mountain. The soul bead is placed in the center of the holy mountain. It stopped on the mountainside, probably because the mountainside is closest to the location of the soul bead."

"Give it to me, I can trade with you." Angle paused: "You name the price."

The high priest shook his head: "The soul bead inside the holy mountain was left by Lady Isabel. Not only does it have her image, but also a trace of consciousness. It is very important to Lady Queen. Not to mention taking it, just approaching there will be sensed by Lady Queen."

"I can assure you that even if you steal hundreds or thousands of soul beads, you didn't take that one soul bead, which made Lady Queen even more angry."

If what the high priest said was true, Angel believed it. With Isabella's crazy love for her teacher, he could do such a thing.

Even if there are hundreds of soul beads, they are not as good as the soul beads that have a trace of Isabel's consciousness.

Hundreds of soul beads?

Angel suddenly thought of something: "Are you hinting at me to steal the soul beads in the Holy Castle?"

The high priest shook his head calmly: "No."

Angel was too lazy to argue: "Are there many soul beads in the Holy Castle?"

"Lady Isabel is a soul wizard, he needs soul beads." The high priest said.

With just this sentence, Angel understood what the high priest meant. Although Isabel left the South Region, it does not mean that she is dead... According to Isabella's madness for Isabel, maybe she has not used any of the soul beads collected in the past thousand years.

Angel looked at the soft little lump in his palm, and a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

Toby is the only obsession he is unwilling and reluctant to let go of in the wizarding world.

Angel looked at the high priest: "Can the selection be postponed?"

The high priest nodded: "Yes, but it must be before the night after tomorrow at the latest."

"Okay! Then postpone it to the night after tomorrow." After a pause, Angel looked at the high priest: "What does the soul bead look like? What are its characteristics?"

"You are going to the Holy Castle?"

"Yes, I must go." Shadow said that there is currently no wizard-level opponent in the Black Castle, and Isabella is not in the Black Castle, so this is a great opportunity.

He went, even if he failed.

But if he didn't go, if Toby was swallowed by anger, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.

The high priest pondered for a moment and roughly described the appearance of the soul bead. Finally, before Angel left, he pointed at Toby: "If its self-rescue consciousness is still there, just follow it, maybe you can find the soul bead the fastest."

Angel nodded, and then he stretched out his hand to the high priest.

A nightmare breath enveloped the high priest.

"Just in case, as long as you don't mention me, everything will be normal. After three days, the effect will disappear." After saying this, Angel turned around and walked back.

The high priest watched Angel walk away, lowered his head and sighed softly. When he came, he thought that this unexpected visitor would choose to purify his soul in the end, because he understood the greedy nature of wizards. So he had already instructed the priests to prepare for the selection in the Centennial Hall.

Unexpectedly, there would be a big turn at the end.

When the high priest sighed helplessly, Angel's voice suddenly floated from the wind.

——"If I can come back successfully in three days, I owe you a favor."
