Chapter 1584 – Increase sharply!
The broken territory barrier was mended by Shi Yan’s Space power Upanishad little by little. After he had swallowed the Grace Mainland, it didn’t send forth any energy fluctuation. When the wrath of heaven descended, the experts had somehow stopped it, saving the desperate warriors and mortals.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Audrey’s body turned into a jet of gloomy light, landing from the sky. After Desolate’s soul retreated, Audrey’s host soul was still sealed. She couldn’t control the soul altar to use the power Upanishad or control her mind to urge the God power.
Three divine lights of purple, cyan, and orange-red color came from three different corners, covering her body like ribbons and guiding her to Zi Yao. The latter’s bright eyes radiated dazzling divine lights as she concentrated on her while hissing, “She hasn’t awakened yet!”
Three ribbons tying Audrey had turned into three snakes, entering her body fast and making her shiver in the void. Just like someone in a coma awakened by an electric shock, Audrey woke up with a start.
She was shaken, her cold face reflecting a deep fear as she screamed hoarsely.
Underneath them, Ming Hao, Adele, and the members of the Imperial Dark Tribe were worried. They had floated up as they wanted to wake Audrey up. However, they didn’t do anything when they saw Zi Yao take action. Hearing her screaming, Ming Hao and Adele hurried to come and check her, their faces stern.
Han Tian, Hiro, and Montecie looked as if they had to face another enemy, gathering by Audrey with heavy faces.
“Desolate had used her soul to get here. She was his medium. If she’s still here, is it true that Desolate could arrive through the territory barrier any time?” Hiro’s eyes were as sharp as a cold sword. He looked at Audrey, not trying to conceal his intentions. “To cut off the potential danger, the best way is to destroy her soul, which will prevent Desolate from channeling through her!”
Hiro didn’t have human emotions, and only talked logic. If he thought it was right, he would discuss directly without beating the bush.
Hearing him, Ming Hao, Adele, and many members of the Imperial Dark Tribe became cold and hostile. A dark light flashed in their eyes as they were trying to restrain their wrath.
Unexpectedly, Han Tian, Montecie, Gay, and Judy nodded in agreement with him.
“If we want to ensure the Cloud Mist Territory’s safety and Shi Yan’s life, killing…this girl is a wise move,” said Judy, while Han Tian and the others nodded inwardly.
The terrifying intimidation of Desolate had frightened them deeply. Even though Han Tian, Montecie, and Hiro were experts at the level of the Ten Great Territory Ancestors, when they faced Desolate, they had felt a deep, powerless feeling.
And, it was just a wisp of Desolate’s soul in Audrey’s body. If Desolate came personally, how could they resist this brute?
No one had that confidence!
They all knew that Audrey used to have a soul clone of Desolate, so her soul had his aura, which had facilitated his consciousness to arrive here. As long as Audrey was here, Desolate could use a wisp of his soul to occupy her body, just like he had done this time.
This meant that the disaster would always loom over their shoulders!
They were too scared to face Desolate again.
Ming Hao turned to face Hiro’s team, his face terrifyingly sinister. He gritted his teeth but didn’t say anything, waiting for Zi Yao’s decision. At the same time, a wisp of his Soul Consciousness had condensed and approached Shi Yan in the distance.
Once they came to a negative decision for Audrey, he would report to Shi Yan immediately. He wouldn’t care even if he was at his critical moment. He had to force Shi Yan to protect Audrey.
“You’re worried too much,” Zi Yao looked at Audrey, watching her slowly wake up. She then smiled and said, “Even if Desolate wants to use her soul to come here, it won’t be easy for him because she has reached the Territory Ancestor Realm. Actually, Desolate’s possession is an extreme encounter she will never have again in her life…”
Everybody was puzzled and surprised as they all turned to look at Audrey, including Ming Hao, Adele, and the members of the Imperial Dark Tribe.
The Netherworld dragons that hadn’t vanished flew toward her from a far distance, the dark, evil, and cold auras swarming over. Ming Hao’s team also felt chilled as if they were suddenly sent deep inside the Netherworld.
The Netherworld dragons curled around Audrey for several rounds and then got into the Soul Refining Cauldron above her head. Immediately, the Soul Refining Cauldron acquired many earthworm symbols. Billions of brutal souls emerged on the cauldron’s surface for a moment as the massive cauldron slowly revolved and lowered, eventually entering her head.
At this moment, Audrey’s eyes were closed. However, as soon as the cauldron went inside her head, she opened her eyes.
Her eyes glowed with a gloomy light as if she had the ghostly flames moving in them. The aura from her body also chilled people to the core.
“Desolate’s soul had occupied her soul altar, but her host soul knows everything that had happened. She knows how Desolate used her power Upanishads, especially that Soul Refining Cauldron. She’s like a very lucky apprentice whom her superb grandmaster had taught directly. The experience she gained from that battle is so incredible for her powers and the Soul Refining Cauldron that we can’t actually estimate…”
Zi Yao smiled and continued while everyone was still bewildered, “More importantly, she got a territory soul but she couldn’t refine it. But now, Desolate’s soul has guided the energy and refined it, creating a soul pond in her Sea of Consciousness. In other words, she has leaped to the Territory Ancestor Realm directly from her Immortal Realm. Without Desolate’s intrusion this time, she would have needed thousands of years to have this breakthrough. However, it cost her only fifteen minutes!”
Audrey’s eyes turned as bright as the cold moon all of a sudden, and everybody turned to her with a stunned face. They then inwardly cheered and praised her lucky encounter.
Ming Hao, Adele, and the Imperial Dark Tribe warriors were so thrilled that they almost screamed.
“Desolate could possess her easily because her realm wasn’t high enough, and her understanding of power Upanishad was shallow. But now, she has reached the Territory Ancestor Realm and knows how to use the Soul Refining Cauldron. If Desolate wants to use her again, he will have to make a lot of efforts,” Zi Yao pressed her lips together. “In that case, with Shi Yan’s sensitivity to Desolate, he’ll able to detect that early. Perhaps he can seize the chance to attack Desolate hard. I think as Desolate has failed this time, he won’t use his soul to come again recklessly. Next time, he would come with his real body.”
Zi Yao said many things just to let people know that Audrey wasn’t a threat to Shi Yan, and wouldn’t become a medium for Desolate to arrive here at any time.
She was an Absolute Beginning creature, and she was the strongest expert in the Cloud Mist Territory. No one doubted her presumption, and no one had other thoughts toward Audrey anymore.
Ming Hao and Adele were at ease when they saw the others’ relieved countenances. They weren’t vigilant anymore.
“Thank you,” Audrey hesitated for a while and then bowed to Zi Yao unnaturally.
“You little girl…” Zi Yao smiled casually, sending her a soul message. “I won’t interfere with you and Shi Yan if you have something in destiny. What you have in your mind, you should do it and try to prove it. I won’t stand in your way, so you don’t need to be hostile toward me.”
“Thank… Thank you,” Audrey was surprised. She stooped and regarded the other, her face a little cheered up.
“We should talk about Shi Yan. This time, his luck was really big. Since Desolate’s too powerful, Sauron and Devour had seized the chance to take action, hindering Desolate from completing his union. It’s good for Shi Yan, anyway. He may be able to refine Desolate’s body, making it part of his Absolute Beginning body,” Zi Yao smiled.
Han Tian and the others looked shocked. They then turned to see Shi Yan, who was standing in the middle of the void.
At this moment, Shi Yan was in his Absolute Beginning body, seeming like a majestic mountain piercing into the clouds. He was urging the space energy to mend the territory barriers. The acupuncture points in his body were shining with starlight. At first glance, they were like big and bright stars with dazzling halos.
At Han Tian and Hiro’s level, the experts could sense each of those acupuncture points as a large, mysterious world. If the seven hundred and twenty acupuncture points had become new worlds themselves, would it be real that Shi Yan’s body had become a universe such that he could keep even a territory within his body?
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Explosions arose from Shi Yan’s heart like mountain crackling. Amidst the tremors, his acupuncture points released a thick and immense vitality. An infinite flow of vitality was rising in his acupuncture points, blood, organs, and bones. He suddenly parted his lips, shouting at the void.
Unexpectedly, his massive body began to grow further!
The natural armor plates appeared on his chest, arms, legs, and even under his armpits like dragon scales. The strange but sharp spikes grew like wild weeds on his shoulders and elbows. The bone wings that didn’t show up when he transformed into his Absolute Beginning body finally jutted out from his back while crackling.
The bone wings spread, shadowing the world like demon wings. The endless evil auras from the eight evil powers were now divided into two parts, pouring into each of his wings.
Seeing the unfolding bone wings, people shivered instinctively as if they had just seen the birth of a Demogorgon.
BOOM! BOOM!
Two dragon horns jutted from his head, piercing through the sky. The vitality in the dragon horns was extremely thick, also carrying the sharp space energy. It seemed they could break everything, including the world.
Shi Yan’s Absolute Beginning body was transforming and growing once again. Everybody was frightened as they didn’t know whether the situation was good or bad, unable to help but turn toward Zi Yao.
Zi Yao’s eyes were filled with bright colors. As the others were gazing at her, she said, “In the Absolute Beginning Era, Desolate had hunted many of his kind, absorbing the Absolute Beginning blood to increase his power. He’s the strongest among the Absolute Beginning creatures, with the biggest amount of Absolute Beginning blood. His body part has helped Shi Yan transform one more time. This time, Shi Yan’s body strength would be doubled!”
