The words of the orb left Bai Lung stunned, his mind racing with unknown thoughts trying to make sense.
He struggled to process the knowledge that he had to confront his own soul and absorb its energy in order to pass the trial.
"This can't be true," He muttered under his breath, feeling a mixture of fear and frustration washing over him.
The orb's explanation was more complex than he had expected.
He glanced around the room again, searching for any source of energy, but the room was still completely devoid of any light or visible energy.
It was as though his own soul was completely devoid of any power, which seemed impossible given his own strength and accomplishments.
But then again, it all started from the gift of the system.
"This can't be possible," he repeated, his voice taking on a pleading tone.
