As he look around the special space, the Spirit Beast where also looking him and observing, some look curious and surprised, some look cautious while other look at him with disinterest. The Spirit Beast cubs that were playing around were being called back. Nicos didn't bother with all this and move towards the Stream. Standing by the side of the Stream, he could see the lake clearly due to the pureness of the water, various types of water plants, lotus and lilies were flowing on the stream and they too – did not look ordinary, it could be seen that they will have a special effect when taken. He felt refreshed and energized standing by the edge of the stream, a subtle changes happen in this body, feeling like it being cleanse just with the breathing in of the air here.
Nicos didn't bother with etiquette and go directly on his knee, drinking straight from the stream with his mouth, like a deer that pants for water.
The Spirit Beast continue to look at him as intelligent light shines briefly in their eyes. He continue to drink but it felt like he is pouring water into an abyssal hole that has no intention of getting filled anything soon. He wish he had more than one mouth at this moment. The decayed Spirit-Root keeps absorbing all the Spirit Element from the water as he drinks, but there is still no changes in the Spirit-Root, this didn't bother him and he continue to drink. Deep inside the stream, seeds that look like lotus seed pop out and flow upstream towards Nicos. Apart from not having any changes in the Spirit-Root, other changes occur in Nicos body, like his internal system being strengthen, is bone and body structure going through a thorough transformation and his veins, blood vessels in his body being purified, his meridians and channels that has shrinked are invigorated and refined. The lotus like seed continue to move upstream and gradually gets close to Nicos. Without knowing, he swallow three of the lotus like seed along with the water and it rushed down his throat to his lower abdomen where the decayed Spirit-Root is located, destroying the decayed Spirit-Root completely. Nicos was startled and stopped drinking the water when this happened, he could feel in him that there's no Spirit-Root where is usually is and the place is now void. He noticed something though, even after absorbing so much Spirit Element, it not having any effect on the Spirit-Root, and now that it has been destroyed, all the Spirit Element absorbed earlier has been released into his lower abdomen and it went directly to every of his body part down to his five major organs and his bone marrow, cleansing them of all kind of impurity. The lotus like seeds settle in the place of the Spirit-Root and revolve around speedily forming lines, Nicos went back to drinking the water from the stream but this time, taking note of what is happening in his body, the spirit seed as Nicos named it, continue to resolve and absorb the Spirit Element, emitting bright light, indicating the Spirit Element is having an effect. This process continue and the special space becomes so serene during this time. The three spirit seed merged together after absorbing enough Spirit Element to form one baby fist size spirit seed. Nicos stop drinking the water and observe what happening inside of him.
The spirit seed settle in the place where the Spirit-Root was located in his lower abdomen, after a while, cracks could be heard on the outside which caught the attention of the Spirit Beast and make them look at Nicos more inquisitively. The crack sound becomes more audible and frequent, like fire crackers, InsideNicos, at his lower abdomen the cracked shell of the spirit seed disintegrated and leaves behind a platform that looks like an opened lotus flower with a Being sitting on it in a meditation posture. Nicos immediately knew that it is his Spirit being, while at that, tiny tentacles shining brightly formed out of the body of the Spirit being and Nicos could feel it connecting with his inner spirit. Nicos got rooted in the spot, his understanding of the connection with the Spirit Realm taking a bizarre turn that is outside of his understanding. Unlike others who have their Spirit-Root connected to their inner being, what is happening in him is utterly different from the norms, "the decayed Spirit-Root is also outside the norms" he thought and continue to observe the process. After the whole process of the connection between his Spirit being and his inner spirit was done, a transformation begin again on the outside of him, on his body, "are we not done yet" he thought while looking at what is happening to him. The Spirit Beast continue to observe but creating more distance between them and Nicos, they are getting a feeling from Nicos that they were so familiar with. They have been staying in this special space and they understand the feeling they are getting from Nicos to be the same feeling from the Sacred seed at the bottom of the stream. Nicos continues to go through the transformation without noticing anything around him. After the transformation was done, Nicos become a very different person from the person he was before, the generic silver color hair of the Silvermoon family has now changed to a complete white long, slick hair that reaches his shoulders, his face seems to have also be reshaped, looking more exquisite and well proportion, looking as if the most renowned sculptor has taken his time to chisel out every details of this face and make it more pronounced, his jawline becomes well angled, his eyebrow and lashed in adequate proportion like a super model, his nose is also well placed, fitting in perfectly on his face, his lips looks full and pink, going from there to his necklines that will make some beautiful lady blush and hide themselves. Opening his eyes, his former brown hazel eyes has now changed to a grey color blending with his now white eyebrow and lashes, his skin color also changed from the copper color it was to a pale white like a plain sheet of paper, every part of his body well refined and compact. He looks healthy than he could have ever been.
He look at the Stream brimming with Spirit Element and thought back to the people at home, "I will be selfish if I am the only one who benefit from this, surely this is a blessing from the Holy One and I need to share it with everyone" Nicos takes out his two water flasks and empty the water in it to fill it up with the stream water, surprisingly some of the sacred seed enter into the water flask, filling the two water flask, he closed it and secure it properly in his backpack. He look around at the vegetation and wish he could bring it back with him outside the special space, he discard the thought as he knew nothing with Spirit Essence can last in the Forgotten Region.
He readied himself to leave when he found four Spirit Beast cub on his path out of the special space. The Spirit Beast looks so cute and adorable, but he resist taking them with him to the Forgotten Region as it will be detrimental to them because of how the place is. He look around and found the other Spirit Beast are also looking at him, so far they have not made a move on him, so he decide to not risk it and pass around the Spirit Beast cub to leave the special space after looking at it one last time.
The little Spirit Beast looked at the older ones after Nicos left and surprisingly they speak. "Go, if things follows the same progression, it won't be long before we join you" one of the older Spirit Beast said. Nicos will have been flabbergasted if he knew the Spirit Beast could speak. The little Spirit Beast rush out the space to join Nicos quickly after gaining the permission.
