Chapter 1298 The Quest For Evolution.
Any one of his conjectures could be why he didn't gain any information about her evolution from the soul fragment. But if it were the first, it would show that despite her confidence in her soul fragments, the great mother knew to keep some things confidential. That may mean that the colony that formed the great mother is not as united as he thought.
He thought to himself, "It doesn't matter now. If she can do it, then so can I. I already know the requirements for the evolution of the soul. The law of the soul and a suitable primal. All I just need is to find a primal."
According to the law of the soul, the soul can continuously evolve. This is not a new or unprecedented acknowledgment. It is even acknowledged in the world of manifestation. The evolution of the soul is a feature of the path of perfection and divinity. It is how the path of the soul leads to the awakening of the soul after the body-forging stage.
Even the souls of demons also evolve. But after the breakthrough to the mana stage and the formation of the soul core in the soul space, soul evolution has always been accompanied by the assistance of the world. This assistance is either in the form of mana, Origin energy, faith, or cosmic energy.
Unfortunately for soul prowlers, that assistance is not present in the spiritual dimension. He could achieve this evolution and dig out the potential of his soul if he had access to the law matrix and law fragments. It would be very easy to do too according to his estimates.
Even Aeternus who couldn't wield laws could use law fragments to turn his soul into a concept. It is a kind of soul evolution based on the law of the soul. But there is no such thing down here in the spiritual dimension.
All those things are primals but he doesn't have access to any one of them here which is why he believes that the great mother succeeded in the evolution after she created the Phoenix race to send her resources.
He didn't give up though. He continued trying to evolve himself. It became extra important to do so when he couldn't increase the quantity of the grafted soul fragments anymore. The grafted soul fragments are not his soul. They are just a part of him in a sort of symbiotic relationship. So there is a limit to what he can handle without it becoming too much of a burden on him.Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
"Should I try Chaos energy?" he asked himself and the other clones.
"Aeternus replied, "As someone who very intimate with Chaos energy, I do not recommend that."
Chaos energy is the other type of energy they have access to apart from mana and Origin energy. Mana and Origin energy can't help him directly but it is uncertain if Chaos energy would have a beneficial reaction with the nether waters.
The feedback from the other clones helped him to make a decision. He decided that it was too dangerous to mess with Chaos energy. He knows how dangerous Chaos energy is to everything apart from Aeternus.
He isn't immune to Chaos energy and Legion also isn't willing to let such a dangerous energy enter the mind network. In fact, Aeternus himself is not immune to Chaos energy and he is a high-grade demon. So he had to continue trying something else.
He spent more than a hundred years on the problem of evolution without making any progress. The failure made him frustrated and angry.
"Will I be stuck here forever?" he lamented.
The stagnation in finding a way to evolve means he didn't grow at all during the 100 years of trying. It is something to be frustrated about.
