Re: Evolution Onlinechapter 757: forging the dragon soul

Liam steadied his mind and adjusted his body's condition to the best that he could. This beast horde was the perfect place for this. He couldn't have asked for a better location.

With every beast soul that was being slaughtered aiding him to become stronger, he took a black bead and started pulling out the first dragon soul.

RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

Almost instantly, a tyrannic pressure assaulted him. The soul he had grabbed onto this time felt infinite.

He did not feel this much strain when he had shoved the soul into the black bead but now that he was trying to get a sense of the whole thing, the situation was completely different.

He gritted his teeth as the pressure was almost too intense for him to handle. His mouth, nose, ears and eyes started bleeding and his head felt as if it was going to blast apart.

But just as he was going to completely crumble, Liam sucked in the souls from around him. He shouted in agony but he tried to bear the pain. He almost had it. He can do this.

Liam shivered and tried to hold on. Two more minutes of intense agony washed over him, the pain assaulting him in waves. He continued holding on and withstanding everything.

At a certain point, his health started dropping rapidly.

Seeing this, Alex who had been observing him closely for a while now immediately cast a healing spell.

At first, she was hesitant because it could potentially disturb him but when his health dropped to an all-time low, she decided to make the decision even though she hadn't talked about it with Liam beforehand. Her guts asked her to intervene and she decided to do it.

And luckily for them, the plan did not backfire. Thanks to her, Liam's health quickly recovered but it was only for a second. It then once again started going down.

"Fuck it. One of the priests go up there and keep healing him." Alex shouted.

Without the priest, it was going to be extremely difficult to handle the elites but everyone could see that their big boss was up to something very important at the moment so they bit down and took the pressure.

They could always call the soul minions for help but they did not want the experience points farming to slow down. Everyone right now could see Liam's levels soaring in the ranking board. So no one wanted to disturb that process.

If things continued this way, he could even reach Level 100!

This would be huge for their guild! When every other player in the world would be Level 50 or 60, their guild alone would have a freaking Level 100 player! With this, they could become the unrivalled overlords of this entire game!

So under no circumstance, they wanted to disturb the soul minions who were farming experience points at top speed. They continued dealing with the elites with everything they had and their lives on the line!

Meanwhile, inside the circle of death, Liam was still continuing to struggle. The priest player healed him continuously but his health did not stabilise at all.

This continued on for almost fifteen minutes straight when finally, Liam looked as if he was slightly out of critical condition. His health also stabilized.

Everyone gulped and looked at him eagerly. He did not suffer so much while forging the wyverns, just was he forging now that could send him into a pain spiral like this?

They swallowed and looked forward to the resulting minion that would pop out.

And Liam as well gritted his teeth and finally managed to grab hold of the complete dragon soul. He was panting and heaving but he finally had it in his possession, the entirety of the dragon's soul.

Thankfully, he had saved one dragon soul per black bead so the issue of two-headed joined souls did not happen this time. Otherwise, he would have simply died.

Although, he was not fully out of the woods just yet. Liam weakly smiled as he stared at the football-sized soul energy swirling in front of him. This was the biggest soul he had ever handled and managed to condense.

And this was just a small percentage of the whole forging process. He still needed to go through the rest of the steps. Would he really be able to do it?

As it was, he barely had any juice in his body, but Liam knew that he had to. There was simply no other way. He closed his eyes to suck in a few more souls around him to recover a little and then start the forging process.

He steadied his mind and took a deep breath, feeling the multitude of souls hovering around him as his soul minions slaughtered everything in sight. Perfect! This was just what he needed to recover.

In a single motion, he inhaled the air as he pulled all the souls he needed towards him. The soul fragments obeyed his command and zoomed forward as if he was a magnet.

And just as they were about to reach him and replenish him, suddenly Liam flashed his eyes open.

Confusion, panic and anxiety appeared on his face as he felt an immense force come down on him without any warning. His souls had also gone missing.

The soul fragments that were just about to recuperate him had completely disappeared, with nothing left behind. What was happening?

Liam's instincts told him that something was off. He needed to act quickly. It was only a fraction of a second when everything started changing but because of his gut feeling, he pushed the dragon's soul back into the black bead instantly.

And just as he did, the next second, an even greater pressure crushed him down without any warning and the air around him pulsed with a strange energy. No, it wasn't just any energy. It was divine energy, an intense wave of it burned through his skin like a corrosive acid.
