"The reason you're absorbing the soul stones so quickly is because you actually aren't, at least not all of it just a small portion of it." replied Moj Dak
"I'm not absorbing it...?" said William
"It's your cultivation method kid, you practice an attribute-less cultivation method meaning the mana you absorb into your body must be absolutely pure. Which is good because it means your spells will be stronger, but you're really only absorbing about 10% of the soul stone maybe less. The rest is just being released around you." replied Moj Dak
"So what can I do?" said William
"You need to cultivate using higher tear soul stones, the higher tier the more likely you'll absorb the mana in the soul stone. Meaning it's going to get expensive to cultivate." replied Moj Dak
"Will I be able cultivate using low tier soul stones at least until I reach one star bronze?" asked William
"They should work until you reach about three star bronze, you will need a lot of them though" said Moj Dak
"That's good enough, it'll take many years to reach three star anyways." said William depressed.
"Huh? You seem to have misunderstood something William. I did say it would take two years to breakthrough to one star bronze, because humans have no natural affinity to magic. However, once your gate to magic is fully open and your body can contain mana. It should only take you about eight months, to advance to the peak of bronze if you have enough resources. Specially with that flawless cultivation method you possess." said Moj Dak.
"What really?! That's great! What about silver rank?" asked William
"You should focus on bronze before thinking of silver, but if you must know with that method you have there. If you have the enough resources it should take you about three months to breakthrough to one star silver, and about sixteen months later you'll be at the peak of human cultivation" said Moj Dak.
"Peak of human cultivation? What's that supposed to mean?" asked William.
"Don't tell me... you didn't know" said Moj Dak confused.
"Know what?" said William.
"Humans can only cultivate up to the peak of silver rank..." said Moj Dak.
"How...? How is that possible...? But I've seen plenty of gold rank... and platinum rank... even diamond rank humans..." said William.
"That's right you have that warlock general's memories, that must be what warlocks believe... unfortunately boy that's just a lie told to the Warlocks." replied Moj Dak
"What kind of bullshit is this?! I've fought... I mean general Ja'aduk has faced plenty of humans on par with him even!" yelled William
"Well maybe it was too much for me to say it's a lie. As, at one point they were human after all..." said Moj Dak
"What are you saying Moj Dak?" said William.
"It's a miracle that humans can use magic at all. A race with no affinity to magic an yet they can reach the peak of silver rank even. However, the human soul has a limit on how much mana it can handle, that just happens to be it." said Moj Dak
"So how did other humans break that barrier?" asked William.
"By giving up their humanity..." said Moj Dak
William swallowed a mouthful of saliva after hearing that.
"When a human reaches the peak of silver rank... To advance further he must find a magical beast with equal or greater power, and kill it by stabbing it through the heart. Then when the magical beast's spirit leaves it's body, he must let the magical beast's spirit devour his soul replacing it with it's own. The two become one and a contract is formed, a tattoo appears either on the arms, face or chest to signify the union." said Moj Dak
"You're saying that in order for a human to advance beyond silver rank, they must die...?" asked William
"I did say it devours you're soul but it's actually more of a fusion of souls, you become what you've killed." replied Moj Dak
"So I just kill any random magical beast with a silver rank or above magical cultivation rank" asked William
"Of course not! You not only have find a magical beast with a similar attribute to your cultivation, but one that has potential to advance further as well." replied Moj Dak
"Potential... you mean that they are capable of becoming a gold rank or higher?" asked William
"Yes, for example if you were to fuse with a fox-bear. The fox-bear's spiritual limit to absorb mana is at one star gold rank. When you fuse with the fox-bear you become the fox-bear, so you're mana limit is raised but only to one star gold. The higher mana limit the magical beast you fuse with has, the higher you'll be able to raise your magical cultivation" said Moj Dak.
"So I should fuse with a magical beast with nine star diamond mana limit then." said William
"That's easier said then done kid, those magical beasts are ultra rare to find. Not to mention you have to be able to kill them, with a magical cultivation of nine star silver no less. Those beasts are born at silver rank already. So unless your going to sneak into a nest to kill the infant magical beasts, you won't be a match for them specially not the adults." said Moj Dak
"Well, why not kill them in their nest?" asked William
"Why not?! For one it's even harder to locate their nest then it is to find one in the wild and two, all of the powerful magical beast have very high intelligence. They are very protective of their young so they rarely leave their side." replied Moj Dak
"Well-" said William but was interrupted
"Enough questions! If you're interested in something, you have one of the largest libraries in the world here to find out whatever it is you need. I only came to drop off this scroll I have to go get the other scrolls." said Moj Dak
"What you're leaving again master? You only just got back..." said Nin Li from across the room.
"Yes, I have to get the other scrolls before anyone else does." said Moj Dak.
"I'm going go cultivate for now." said William as he began to walk away
"Wait! William!" said Moj Dak
"Yes, how can I help?" said William
"Here these are all the soul stones I have right now, there are some mid tear and high tear there as well" said Moj Dak as he took out a pile of soul stones all in pouches.
"This... are you sure you don't need it yourself?" asked William
"No most of these I got from the scroll hunt I just came back from, I'm positive I'll find more in the next one as well." said Moj Dak
In total there were ten thousand low tier soul stones one hundred mid tier soul stones and two high tier soul stones.
"Thanks, these will be a great help. I hope you get your scroll" said William and walked off.
"Master, have a safe trip" said Nin Li
"Right, I'll be back in a few months with the second scroll" said Moj Dak before vanishing into thin air.
