A Life essence flame shard!
That was what levitated in front of Jason, right now.
The Queen had used her connections to procure it to show Jason how important he was to her.
Sensing the purity of the Life essence flame shard, he clearly understood what Queen Lilya was trying to do, and he could only smile at that.
She could have gotten him just any kind of flame, but what his Emperor Eyes perceived was something grandiose, of immense value, and quality.
A golden hue enveloped the Life essence flame shard, causing him to swallow his saliva, as he looked at it with wide eyes that nearly popped out.
Meanwhile, Solaris was trying to leave the Soul world with all its might, desperate to devour the Life essence flame shard.
Jason could understand how his soulbond felt, and he wanted to help Solaris to undergo the second evolution too.
However, there were still a few things he wanted to keep a secret from the Queen.
But even that was something he began to question himself if it was really necessary as he was not sure whether it was useful or not.
She looked at him as if she was omniscient.
This caused him to smile oddly, rather than feeling that it was disturbing to be scrutinized by her gaze.
Nevertheless, Jason didn't allow Solaris to leave his Soul world despite its repeated attempts and instead he simply approached the Life essence flame shard.
"We have prepared a place on Myriad for you to stay for the following decade. The planet's origin vein that supplies the entire planet with the three cultivation energies is located near it.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64ce79d606107d003c23ea27", id: "pf-5140-1"})The resources you demanded will also be brought there once we successfully procure them.
After you leave to fully cleanse Lyina, they will be stored there too. We can also store them elsewhere. You just need to tell me, or my direct subordinates and we will arrange it!"
Giving Jason a short summary of everything important, the Queen said everything she had in mind before allowing Jason to finally take the Life essence flame shard in his hand.
She sighed inwardly, knowing that an invaluable treasure would be destroyed, and be devoured by another flame just for the sake of becoming stronger.
However, that was how the current Era was- either you devour or you get devoured.
This thought had kept her alive, and fighting her way to the top, giving her the necessary power to become far stronger than anyone else.
Having shared the information she wanted to, the Queen thus left the room.
She had done everything she was supposed to do, and even more, as her schedule was jam-packed with back-to-back appointments giving her hardly any time to breathe.
Yet, the Queen still took a glance at Jason's cleansing, how efficient it was, and how long it was likely for him to take to cleanse the entire planet.
In the end, she realized that her earlier assumption of him requiring a century to complete the assigned task had been exaggerated.
Only if he were to be interfered with by other beings or even beasts that lived on Lyina would Jason take longer.
While leaving the room, she issued a voice transmission to one of her attendants, giving out several orders.
[Fulfill every single demand he has, and protect him by all means, whether it is on Myriad or while cleansing Lyina!]
After that, she disappeared, and Jason wondered when he would see her again or if she would ever grace him with her presence.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})It was not that his relationship with her was unique in any way.
Rather, they could be considered as strangers who were helping each other for their own benefit.
But even then it was Jason, who had many things he wanted to take care of.
It was at this exact moment when the Life essence flame shard in his hand began to tremble a little.
His hand had been burning for quite some time due to the Life essence flame shard's increase in temperature.
Being a sentient existence, it could sense what was about to happen.
As such, it tried to burn through Jason's hand and escape its inevitable fate even if it was unable to move, to begin with.
Its instinct made it attempt everything possible until the last minute.
Unfortunately, the moment the Life essence flame shard began to burn Jason's hand, it turned black as blazing flames erupted from every single pore in his hand.
Jason hadn't noticed that yet, but after looking at his right hand, he realized that Solaris had found a way to escape the Soul world.
And that was despite him sealing his Soul world, which would normally prevent any soulbond from emerging in the outside world.
As such, Jason was a little bit astonished at the sight of his blazing black hand.
Right in the center of his black palm, a white glow appeared which originated from the pulsating Life essence flame shard.
However, Jason knew that it was only a matter of time before Solaris would devour it.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})Thus, he was able to avert his attention from the interesting fight of the Black Origin flame against the unawakened Life essence flame shard.
Looking up, the attendant the Queen had spoken to earlier simply stared at him and his right hand before muttering nervously,
"The Queen ordered me to provide you with the best service. If there is anything you need, I shall help you!"
This was something Jason, and Jennifer had expected.
As such, they just nodded their heads before Jason stated his demands,
"In that case, please take me to the place the Queen had mentioned earlier. I also need a beastarium about all beasts on Lyina, and if possible about all types of materials, plants, and natural treasures which I will be able to find there!"
Feeling like it was time to start working on the large-scale customization plan he had in mind, he realized that Lyina was likely to be the best planet for him to achieve this.
He would stay there for, at least, half a century, and just cleansing the surrounding of its dark and impure energies would soon become a boring and mundane task, either way.
The Queen's attendant didn't ask him any questions and just nodded his head before leading the way.
By using spatial portals, they arrived at the designated location in no time.
However, Jason didn't notice anything around him anymore as his senses grew numb.
The only thing he knew was that they had arrived, and this was extremely great.
After all, Solaris had geared up on the devouring process of the Life essence flame shard.
It wouldn't take long before his soulbond would devour the shard that was attempting its best to survive and repel Solaris.
Yet, all of its struggles was rendered useless when Jason allowed Solaris to fully emerge from the Soul world.
Tightly enveloping the Life essence flame shard at once, Solaris devoured it, as it disintegrated into countless small particles, none of which escaped the Origin flame.
It appeared to be a cruel sight, to the extent that Jason inserted Divine energy in Solaris to accelerate the devouring process.
Hours passed and the moon crept up the sky indicating nightfall as Jason slumped on the chair that Jennifer had brought him.
He was still outside the small mansion that had been built in the middle of nowhere.
Without any kind of knowledge or perception of the surrounding cultivation energies, Jason would be confused about the mansion's location.
However, he could clearly sense that all the energies were running through the floor of the mansion.
And the most important fact was that the mansion had a specific energy gathering runic circle drawn around it, followed by some other runic circles that appeared to be intricate and of great use.
A wealth of valuable resources was stored inside the mansion including but not limited to cultivation stones, and nutrition solutions worth the resources a prodigy required for an entire century!
But all of this was of no use for Jason as of now.
After all, Solaris had just fully devoured one of the purest flames in existence, a shard of a Life essence flame!
The energy that was released inside the Black origin flame owing to this, was immense and unfathomable.
And even without having done anything to support Solaris, Jason's entire body seemed to be on fire both inside and on the outside.
His eyes turned into blazing, dark flames with golden flecks intermingled into them as a faint white glint emerged within the darkness.
Solaris' Evolution had just been initiated, yet, Jason was also undergoing a transformation, causing him to feel flabbergasted.
'The evolution and baptism are…interconnected?'
