Dustin pondered whether a mysterious element lurked at the depths of the Soul Elixir pool.
“Everyone, please step back,” he exclaimed without an explanation. As he approached the spiritual pool, he extended his palm toward the center and firmly grasped it.
Instantaneously, the liquid in the entire pool began to tremble and swiftly rotate. In just a few seconds, a giant vortex materialized at the spot where his palm had been, stirring the Soul Elixir ever more rapidly.
Guided by Dustin’s mystical pure energy, a colossal swirling mass of Soul Elixir gradually ascended from the water. Everyone soon saw a remarkable sight.
With a single hand, he seemingly plucked the Soul Elixir from the pool like one would pull out a radish. Surrounded by mystical pure energy, the Soul Elixir gathered in mid-air, forming a massive milky-white sphere.
The sphere, with a diameter ranging from 10 to 13 feet and substantial weight, effortlessly hovered above his head without spilling a drop. This remarkable display of control left everyone astonished again.
Having secured all the Soul Elixir, Dustin’s attention returned to the pool, revealing a milky-white pearl at the bottom. The pearl, about the size of a fist, was semi-transparent and emitted a faint white glow.
Upon closer inspection, a small white snake wriggled inside, exuding an extraordinary presence. Dustin extended his other hand and gently grasped the white pearl. The pearl emitted a gentle white glow and landed securely in his palm.
Dustin muttered in disbelief, “Who would’ve thought that such a tiny bead could hold such terrifying power?”
As he examined it more closely, his eyes twitched in surprise.
The bead, small as it was, contained an overwhelming amount of energy. The mystical pure energy he had infused into it just moments ago disappeared as if it were a drop in the ocean.
“Let me take a look,” Grace said, stepping forward to receive the white bead from Dustin’s hand.
As she examined it closely, a smile spread across her face. “This is it! The Dracan essence we’ve been searching for!”
He arched an eyebrow at the mention of Dracan essence. “What’s up with its appearance?” he asked.
In his mind, Dracan essence was supposed to be some kind of energy flow. However, what lay in front of him was just a bead. The conceptual idea and the physical reality seemed different.
“Dracan essence is profoundly spiritual. It actively seeks precious materials, embedding itself within, nurturing its growth gradually,” Grace shared with excitement.
She added, “Notice the small white snake within the Spirit Core? That’s the true form of Dracan essence, though it’s not fully developed yet.”
“In a few hundred, or perhaps a thousand years, this Spirit Core will give rise to a new Dracan force!” she continued, her enthusiasm undiminished.
The value of this Spirit Core far surpasses that of an entire pool of Soul Elixir, be it by a hundred or even a thousandfold. The crucial factor lies in the Dracan essence residing within the Spirit Core, which plays a pivotal role in determining the fate of Dragonmarsh.
As long as the royal family holds onto it, Dragonmarsh will stand strong. In fact, this might be the opportunity to ascend and usher in an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity.
