"How could this happen?!"
Watching Serena's soul phantom shatter into countless soul fragments the moment it touched the surface of the Magic Cube, Saine cried out in shock and fury.
Pain, regret, incomprehension, confusion, sorrow, and countless other negative emotions flooded Saine's mind in an instant.
But this was not the time for remorse. He had to do everything in his power to salvage the situation.
Under Saine's careful control, the shattered soul slowly gathered toward the Magic Cube's surface once more.
This time, the Magic Cube began to slowly absorb those soul particles.
Yet the scene Saine had envisioned, of Serena's soul being reconstructed, did not appear.
Instead, another wave of will emerged from within the Magic Cube.
It was the voice of the Magic Cube's Origin Will.
Only Saine, as the Magic Cube's master, could instantly understand what it wished to convey through this kind of exchange of wills.
—It turned out that the Magic Cube did not possess the ability to directly transform the souls of intelligent lifeforms into mechanical wills.
This indicated both that the Magic Cube was not advanced enough and that Saine's own strength might not meet the required standard.
After all, "resurrection"-type methods were not entirely absent from the Star Realm.
Whether it was the Immortal Domain Civilization's "Reincarnation Underworld" or the Light God Race's "Angel Reincarnation Pool" recorded in history, both were supreme artifacts with certain "resurrection" properties.
Yet without exception, artifacts of this kind had all reached the level of Civilization Supreme Treasures!
Although Saine's Magic Cube was a World-Class Secret Treasure with exceptionally outstanding growth potential, in terms of quality, it had not yet reached the standard of a High-Level World-Class Secret Treasure.
Much less that of a Civilization Supreme Treasure!
Since birth, aging, sickness, and death were one manifestation
