SINGULAR UNITY

Zac gazed at the eight shimmering orbs floating in his mind, urgently trying to figure out a solution for the final missing core. Soon, his attention turned to the clouds containing vast amounts of Life and Death-attuned energies. At first, he simply assumed the nebulae were leftover energies from the process. After all, his soul oceans had contained far more energy than necessary, so it made sense there would be some remaining.

But what if that wasn’t the case? Zac had an idea, and streams of Mental Energy emerged from the eight fully-formed cores. It felt so natural, so easy. Before, he could arduously control two streams to form his crude Dao braids. But now, he was actually controlling eight of them, though their movements were a bit stiff.

Still, that was enough for Zac’s purpose, and he made the streams catch large globs of nebulous dust before dragging it all toward one of the cores. It was one of the first two he’d formed, and Zac looked on as he drenched it in the two sets of clouds, prompting the familiar explosions to erupt.

It was like magnificent fireworks had gone off around the core, and Zac felt the immense pressure the explosions put on the core. The chaos continued for a few moments, and Zac’s brows furrowed as doubt crept into his heart. However, a small stream of shockingly pure light was eventually squeezed out from the heart of the core, its radiance almost blinding.

Zac’s eyes lit up, and he gingerly took control of the sliver, helping to drag it out from the core. He first planned on pushing the attuned clouds away, only to realize the clashes didn’t impact this pure string at all. It was his soul, condensed and refined to an unprecedented state. Some random Life-Death explosions weren’t enough to harm it even if it was just a thin string.

His instincts were correct, and it looked like the tendril knew what to do on its own. The eight attuned cores kept rotating in that mysterious pattern, and it was like they formed some sort of vacuum at the heart of it all. The scene made Zac think of a yarn winder.

He figured out the method to refine the cores one final time, but had a feeling that execution could still impact the end result. If he put pressure on just one core at a time, he would eventually form eight unconnected strings. Wouldn’t it be better to extract all eight strings simultaneously, allowing them to form a proper yarn?

Zac had spent years looking at the intricate patterns on the array disks of the [Nine Reincarnations Manual], and he was almost certain his theory was correct as he looked at the pattern of the eight outer cores. Zac didn’t quite understand the underlying meaning of their movements, but he sensed the same truths hidden in the clouds that sprung from the array disks.

The essence of the Soul Strengthening Method was hidden in that dance, and he needed to imprint that essence into the ninth and final core.
