The Spike Demons' magic cores contained not only immense magical energy, but also exceptionally pure energy. As natives of another world, only the finest creatures, selected through countless generations, could pass through the distorted space and come to this world.
Even if they seemed weak, that was only in comparison to the other world. So when Lu Yang began absorbing the energy within the magic core, the pure magical energy washed over and refined his Soul Sea again and again. Not only did he feel no pain at all, he actually enjoyed it immensely.
It was like replacing all impurities and turning the energy in his Soul Sea into its purest form. Even as his Soul Sea expanded, the immense magical energy could instantly repair its boundaries.
Almost in a state of enjoyment, Lu Yang expanded his Soul Sea to the level of a Level 3 mage. The remaining energy then began nourishing his spiritual power, allowing it to reach Level 3 as well.
