章 1597: The Origin Of The Tyrant Race: 2

The Shikis didn't wander around for their short, one-year lifespan and die like they used to. Instead, they searched for a location with a lot of mana and took root there.

They knew those locations through the memories of their predecessors, so they didn't search for long. They just went directly to the place in their memories and planted themselves in the ground. 

Their form changed from the balls of light into a ball of filaments. These filaments spread throughout the soil like roots and absorbed mana into it.

No one knew what caused this drastic change in the race. Maybe it was because the Shikis were born from seeds in the first place and needed the soil to grow. Whichever reason it was, no one was worried about the change because the Shikis led to an increase in the fertility of the soil. This is because they were still mana-to-vitality converters.
