Walker Of The Blue Sky
Chapter 51 The Symbol Of Nightshade

51  Ch 51: The Symbol Of Nightshade

Maybe the creatures of Infinite Soul Star don't know or can't tell, but Soul Cultivation is unique. They walk a path that no other cultivator has taken.

Choosing Soul Cultivation doesn't mean there are no other paths available in the Infinite Soul Star. People who cannot awaken their Soul Mark but still want to cultivate can always choose the path of Body Cultivation, focusing on strengthening their physique. This results in them having extremely powerful bodies. They can shatter a huge mountain with a simple punch and possess the capabilities of facing any type of elemental attack with the raw strength of the physical body alone.

Some people choose the demonic path and become demons by practicing demonic cultivation techniques. This has happened in the past.

However, no other cultivation path is as popular, admired, well-received, and sought-after as Soul Cultivation.

No matter how powerful a person's physical body is, or how demonic in nature they are, if their soul is weak, they are nothing but a lamb to the slaughter, easily killed at any time. Soul Masters can simply destroy their souls, killing them as easily as killing an ant.

That is why such paths of cultivation have slowly disappeared from the Infinite Soul Star over time.

However, as the saying goes, every positive thing has a negative side. Soul Cultivation is not without its dark path. Some people cultivate dark-type Soul Cultivation Techniques, becoming Soul Demons. They have brought great disasters to various places on the Infinite Soul Star in the past. Although they were eradicated after long struggles by all forces, it doesn't mean they have completely disappeared. From time to time, a few of them still appear, and whenever they do, they leave a mark of fear in people's hearts.

Emrys, although having no idea about the dark path of Soul Cultivation, was extremely shocked when he learned about the disasters they could bring upon the world.

"I have yet to cultivate any Soul Cultivation Technique, sheh!"

He shook his head, thinking that his progress over the past few days had been simply too fast. He hadn't even had time to buy a Soul Cultivation Technique or choose one from the School Library, and he was already an Intermediate Bronze Soul Master.

Soul Cultivation is unique. In order to progress further, it doesn't require cultivating a technique. Soul Masters can simply take assistance from their Soul Marks while cultivating, progressing in cultivation extremely easily.

However, Soul Cultivation Techniques are still very important. They can make a Soul Master's soul stronger, their Soul Force purer, and their Soul River wider. A Soul Cultivation Technique can enable a Soul Master to easily defeat an opponent with the same cultivation level who has not cultivated a cultivation technique before. It is a huge factor that can create a big gap between the strength of two Soul Masters.

"I can give you one, and I can also help stop those people who are about to enter this Pyramid for a while. However, you have to do one thing for me. If you promise, I will lend you my assistance." Elysia said.

Emrys understood what she meant. She wanted him to do something for her, and in return, she would help him. He had no idea what a powerful expert like her would need his help for, but considering the current situation, he was indeed in dire need of assistance. If she helps him stop those people outside for a while, he can absorb the liquified Soul Force and increase his cultivation. As long as he advanced to become a Silver Soul Master, Emrys believes that he can escape even if he is facing several Advanced Silver Soul Masters. He might be capable of killing a few at that time.

"Okay, I promise you!"

Emrys nodded and promised, and it was at this moment something unexpected happened. A green light flashed in the surroundings.

Looking closely, Emrys found that this was not a green light but a green fog that completely shrouded his sight. The green fog soon transformed into a whirlwind and drove inside Emrys's body.

Emrys could feel a foreign substance entering his body. He subconsciously wanted to struggle and force this substance out, unfortunately, he was helpless. He was unable to do anything to resist the invasion of green fog.

Very soon, the green fog disappeared entirely inside his body. Exactly at this moment, Emrys noticed a symbol of 'a veiled flower' on his left hand.

Emrys curiously looked at this symbol and noticed several things.

At the center of the symbol is a stylized flower, reminiscent of a nightshade bloom, with delicate petals unfurling. However, the flower is partially obscured by a veil of darkness, represented by wispy, swirling lines or shadowy shrouds enveloping its lower half.

The upper part of the flower symbolizes its beauty and allure, with intricate details highlighting its delicate nature. As the eye moves downward, the veil of darkness grows denser, indicating the hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface.

"A flower motif partially obscured by a veil of darkness, symbolizing the hidden dangers within the beauty of nightshade blooms. That is my symbol, the symbol of Nightshade." Elysia smiled at Emrys and said.

She paused for a moment before continuing, "Before you ask, let me tell you that I didn't do this on purpose. This happened entirely because you promised me just now. You are someone far far weaker than me. It is not wrong to say that you are not even qualified to look at me right now. To someone like you, I'm akin to a god. And promises made to a god are bound by the laws of the world itself. In my case, it is governed by the Rules of Spiitarium. Since you've promised, you can't back down, you can't give up, and you can't run away. Even in death, you have to fulfill this promise."

Emrys was again shocked, this time, his shock was beyond senses. This day is truly strange. He is receiving one shock after another. Even in his dream, he never expected that just a single promise to someone could result in such a strange phenomenon. Moreover, his words are now marked by the law of the world...

Wait a minute!

Did she just say Spiritarium?

"What is Spiritarium?" Emrys frowned and asked, thinking deeply.

"You are not qualified to know. If you want to learn about the Spiritarium, the first step is to stand at the apex of the Infinite Soul Star. Remember, this is only the first step; there are many more steps after that!" Elysia smiled at him and disappeared, leaving behind a few words, "Let's talk again after you absorb that little pond full of pure Soul Force. I will stop those guys outside for you, but not for long."
