Placing the Calmness Charm in the vortex, which serves as the source of mist, it is clear to see the condensation of the Calmness Charm. Often, just as Bexia and Christine finish using one Calmness Charm, the Town Soul Eight Diagrams has almost condensed another one, maintaining a delicate balance between the two.
Bexia and Christine are in a fused state, refining the power of their souls. This process is faster, and Christine is the main force, or more accurately, it is her Soul Divinity.
The growth of soul power is rapid, especially when resources are abundant. Bexia's soul was not particularly strong to begin with, just slightly stronger than those of others at the same level. However, with the absorption of a large amount of pure soul energy, his soul strength has greatly increased.
The physical body is the carrier of the soul, and there is a limit to the strength Bexia can enhance his soul. He is not specialized in practicing soul power, so after reaching a medium level similar to that of a champion, Bexia feels a swelling sensation in his soul. If he continues to absorb, it will cause a unique kind of damage to his body, hurting its fundamental basis.
As for Christine, it's completely different. She doesn't have a physical body and cultivates soul power. For her, absorbing soul power is as simple as Bexia absorbing various energies. Unless she encounters a bottleneck, continuous absorption means continuous improvement.
Moreover, with the presence of Soul Divinity, Christine can't encounter a bottleneck at this level. Absorbing this soul power is as simple as eating and drinking for her.
Bexia sits by the side and continues to consume. As he absorbs more, he can refine it, but this process is slow. Fortunately, he has plenty of time now.
As for Christine's strength, it keeps increasing. The fluctuations emanating from her can be seen, and her internal Soul Divinity is also in operation, aiding Christine in rapidly absorbing soul power.
Christine's absorption speed becomes faster and faster. Originally, one Calmness Charm was enough for her to absorb for about three minutes, but towards the end, even two charms were not enough for three minutes. Bexia knows that this is likely a major breakthrough for her. So he takes out all the Calmness Charms and also lets Christine absorb the Resentment Crystals they obtained earlier.
"Huh! It's decreasing?" Bexia continues to control the Town Soul Eight Diagrams, and he clearly feels that the mist in the vortex is starting to decrease. It's frustrating to think that Christine is in a critical stage now, and to lose it at this time is really infuriating.
"Boom!" However, before Bexia could complain, a dull rumbling sound suddenly comes from within the vortex. The vortex made up of white mist instantly reverses and becomes pitch black. Arcs of lightning flicker on it, and its powerful suction is like a whale sucking in water.
"Damn it!" Bexia is completely caught off guard. The erupting suction force is too strong, leaving him no time to react, and he is instantly sucked in.
"Master!" Christine immediately grabs Bexia's arm, trying desperately to resist, but both of them are gradually pulled into the vortex.
"Christine, you go first!" Half of Bexia's body had already been sucked in, and it felt like a sticky swamp inside. Once you got trapped, there was no way to exert any force to escape. In the end, Bexia could only disappear bit by bit.
"No way!" Christine saw the situation and knew it was impossible to pull Bexia out. Even if she wanted to leave, she probably couldn't. She decisively gave up struggling and embraced Bexia, and the two of them were instantly engulfed by the black vortex.
Inside the pitch-black vortex, the suction was extremely strong, and Bexia couldn't control the speed at all. He felt as if his soul was about to leave his body.
"This is the spatial headway!" Bexia felt the change in the void grip in his hand. The spatial energy diffusing here was passively absorbed by the void grip. Otherwise, Bexia would have been torn apart by the spatial force.
"There's an exit ahead!" Bexia looked excitedly at the white hole in front of him. Because the speed was too fast, his voice hadn't fully come out of his mouth yet, and his body had already appeared outside the spatial channel.
"Wow!" It was as if he had been thrown out by a force weighing tens of thousands of pounds. Bexia was fiercely thrown out, and as soon as he appeared in the outside world, he let out an exclamation. At this moment, he was in mid-air. It wouldn't have been a big deal, but with the addition of such tremendous force, even if he could fly, it was difficult to counteract such a terrifying force.
"Boom!" Bexia landed heavily on the ground, even though he had propped up his shield and Thousand-Change Robe, he was still half-dead from the fall. At least a dozen bones in his body were broken, and a large amount of blood gushed out of his seven orifices.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Bexia felt like he was about to faint completely. This was the first time he had suffered such severe injuries, and in the end, it was thanks to Christine's shield that he was still alive.
"Master, are you okay?!" Christine immediately separated from Bexia's body and anxiously supported him. She looked at his body and clothes covered in blood, feeling extremely distressed.
"I'm... cough, cough... fine!" Bexia tried to sit up, but the injuries on his body far exceeded his expectations. As soon as he propped himself up, he fell down weakly again, with one of his arms completely broken.
"Stay still, master, let me treat your injuries first." Christine supported Bexia and let him lie down with her thigh as a pillow. She opened the subspace and immediately took out the lifeforce crystal from the Dragon God, imprinting it on his forehead and using her own power to assist in his treatment.
After opening the subspace, the two little girls who had been hiding inside jumped out together. After all, it was extremely boring in there, especially for the lively Luo Cailin, it was like hell.
"How did big brother get hurt?" As soon as they came out, the two little girls saw the severely injured Bexia and surrounded him from both sides.
"Sister Xian can perform healing magic, right?" Luo Cailin looked up at Luo Ningxian.
"That's right! I can perform healing magic. Let me help big brother." Luo Ningxian slapped her hand, looking like she had just realized something.
"Sister Xian's healing magic is very powerful!" Luo Cailin said.
"Can I help too?" Luo Ningxian looked at Christine, who was busy assisting in the healing process.
"You're welcome!" Christine spat out the words without paying much attention to Luo Ningxian's healing technique, but when Luo Ningxian actually performed it, it was truly astonishing.
After confirming the effectiveness, Luo Ningxian didn't recite any complicated spells. She simply closed her eyes, clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and whispered a prayer for Bexia. "Big brother, please get better soon..."
It seemed like ordinary words, but as soon as her words fell, countless points of light lit up from her body. An ethereal figure emerged from behind her, dressed in a blue gown with a feathered crown, and a breathtakingly beautiful face. She assumed the same posture as Luo Ningxian, bowing her head in prayer.
Countless blue lights formed a water curtain that fell onto Bexia's body. To Christine's surprise, the healing effect of these blue lights was even better than the life force in the crystal, and the speed was extremely fast. Bexia's serious injuries improved by more than half in the blink of an eye.
