Chapter 586: Overdrawing
Translator: Sigma Editor: Hitesh
Buzz Buzz Buzz!
The Demonic Bell continually jingled, as a devilish light like waves rippled in all directions. The scaled face of the Ghost Hunter looked malicious. He was shaking the bell constantly, gathering the evil power in it.
Devil Qi released from the Demonic Bell while demonic scriptures undulated, making a connection with the Ghost Hunter’s soul, looking for any soul fluctuations.
Suddenly, the light from the Demonic Bell twisted behind a gravestone.
The Ghost Hunter howled gloomily as the Demonic Bell sent it a strong energy impact. A wave of condensed energy shot towards that distorted area.
Boom!
The gravestone exploded, powdering the area. In the ash-gray dust, a figure ran away in panic.
Thick blood mist exuded, as a bloody scent diffused everywhere.
Light on Ai Ya's precious armor dimmed as she spurted out blood. Exhausted, she was fleeing at the fastest speed.
Her slender legs wore a pair of blue leather boots, which had a delicate formation. When she was running like flying, that formation was fiercely taking in the Essence Qi of her body to accelerate her speed. She was gliding swiftly like an electric current.
The Ghost Hunter’s bloodthirsty eyes gazed at her, then it shook the Demonic Bell again.
Devil Qi surged torrentially. When the Demonic Bell shook, the whole area shook together with it. A thick cluster of cloud swiftly drifted towards Ai Ya’s general direction.
Ai Ya was distressed. Turning around to peek, she was more frightened, running away at any cost.
She had only the Third Sky of Sky Realm cultivation base. Facing the savage beast like the Ghost Hunter, she had no means to resist with force. If she hadn’t had many treasures, she would have perished already.
Ai Ya’s heart was filled with resentment, but she wasn’t blind. She understood that even if she had the guts to stay here, she would never come back.
She ran away with all of her efforts.
With the secret treasures from her Storage Ring, Ai Ya was as if she had received the support from God. Her figure flashed like a series of shadows that they couldn’t see clearly.
Even the Ghost Cloud that the Ghost Hunter released couldn’t chase after her. As it couldn’t lock her aura, it could only see her disappearing into the horizon.
The Ghost Hunter held the bell, hovering in the air for a while. Then it came back unwillingly, standing next to Shi Yan.
The group of strange creatures including the War Devil, Ghost Hunter, Devouring Gold Silkworm, King of Demonic Insects, and the Holy Spirit God continued guarding Shi Yan. They were alert, in case something strange happened.
Among them, the War Devil was a dead thing. It didn’t move, nor did it have any surging soul fluctuations.
The Ghost Hunter, the Devouring Gold Silkworm, the and King of Demonic Insects were releasing the thoughts of their souls as if they were having a conversation.
The Holy Spirit God’s living form wasn’t similar to theirs, so it couldn’t participate in their discussion. However, the Holy Spirit God was a peculiar alien in this world. It had watched them for a while, then adjusted its soul frequency to form a connection with the Ghost Hunter, Devouring Gold Silkworm, and King of Demonic Insects.
The four peculiar living beings gathered. Their eyes had a very humanized emotion as they were discussing something in silence.
…
Shi Yan’s soul had been drifting for a while. All of a sudden, he found himself in a marvelous space. Also, he immediately felt the aura of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame.
This was an endless space, where a thick, milky white mist was hovering. The mist filled every corner of this place, making it look like a white ocean.
Five-colored beams of light twinkled in this space, each containing some sorts of magical power.
There were some beams with the furious flame inside. When they flashed, the flame burst out with various shapes and then ceased. Some beams appeared with crystal clear streams of water inside. These streams were murmuring where the strange power was overflowing.
Also, there were beams with the Five Element Powers, constantly changing with different shapes inside those beams, releasing their unique aurae.
Countless beams shot, sparkled, then disappeared into thin air. Shi Yan couldn't know their trajectories, which made it hard to observe their shapes and forms from the beginning until the end.
These beams carried with them different powers that existed in heaven and earth. There were Five Elements power, the power of desperation and fear, also the thick brutal power, or the hazy power of the soul.
Each kind of power took turns to sparkle in this strange space. They were flying and shooting like shuttles, as if they were maintaining the existence and order of this space.
Shi Yan’s soul became a phantom, gradually appearing in this space. He could vaguely feel other different aurae.
Observing this space for a while, he couldn’t see the deep meaning behind those things. He hesitated for a while, then tried to communicate with the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame again, wafting towards its general direction.
This strange space didn't have gravity. It was like the scenery in his dream. He thought it would take time to find the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame. However, as his thought flickered, he appeared in their battle instantly.
Lightning strikes were flying in the milky mist like giant dragons. They were all furious and hostile.
Thunder and lightning filled the space, with the aura and power that were enough to destroy the whole world.
The World Extinguishing Thunder Flame’s soul hid in the core of each giant lightning strike. There were so many lightning strikes gathered at the same time. Vaguely, they were forming the shape of a giant Antiquity God, who was watching every creature disdainfully, as if he could hold every one of them in his hands.
Flows of silver flame condensed a sea of silver fire, surging under those lightning strikes.
Big waves surged from the silver fire sea. Each wave was one fierce silver flame that could burn down all souls.
Silvery flames seethed torrentially. Sometimes, it rose up to the sky, hitting the robust electric dragon created by the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame. Dazzling sparks shot out from the impact.
Two rivers meandered around that silver fire sea; one was jade white, and the other was scarlet. The jade white river froze many crystal clear ice cubes, piling up in the middle of the river while releasing an ice cold energy that could chill one to the bone.
It was a turbulent flame inside the scarlet river. Its aura was filled with the heat of lava. Inside the flame, Shi Yan could vaguely see the pure fire of the Sun with its solar divine light.
These two rivers were situated aside the silver fire sea. They were also changing. Sometimes, countless ice dragons, ice snakes, beasts, or giants flew out of the jade white river. Each of them was condensed from snowflakes. All were giant, at least hundreds of zhang, and they carried the freezing power that could freeze everything.
The scarlet river had condensed red fire shower. However, these fire raindrops went against natural orders when it rained from the ground to sky.
Vigorous lightning strikes were slaughtering in the sky, hitting the ice dragons, smashing the ice snakes, and pounding the giants into powder. They also evaporated the fire shower.
Only the soul-destroying willpower in the silver fire sea could resist the lightning. It was using the ancient will and guts to compete with the hateful soul inside the lightning strikes.
Flashes of light, thunder, and lightning strikes interweaved, filling the entire space. Living fluctuations of the silver fire sea and the two rivers were gradually worn out.
Light and energies madly impacted in this space. These lives were using the most primitive means to carry out a brutal soul war.
Swoosh!
A lightning strike precisely struck Shi Yan’s phantom, making it crack like bubbles.
His brain went numb, following which Shi Yan woke up abruptly. His eyes shone like two pieces of diamond, but his face was oddly strange. He didn’t know where that magical space was. Even the Soul Consciousness aided by space power couldn’t detect it. But, he could confirm one thing: the battle of the four heaven flames had come to a critical moment. Who could survive, who could take the final triumph after this strange fight?
If the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame won, the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, the Ice Cold Flame, and the Earth Flame would be fused with him. He would evolve the second time, coming to gain the perfection of his living form, and an unimaginable soul power.
And Shi Yan, with the connection he had with the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, his soul would scatter as his existence in this world was erased.
If his life seal didn’t exist anymore, even if he had an immortal body, it would mean death to him, which put an end to his revival process, and he would never have a new life again.
The Immortal Rebirth Secret could only revive his body, but not make his soul undying. In this world, when the life seal was erased, there were no means to gather or restore it.
Of course, Shi Yan didn’t want to die.
It was just that he didn't know how to help the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame. The World Extinguishing Thunder Flame had destroyed his hollow soul when he had just gotten there He couldn’t have the exact situation of that battle.
This was definitely not good!
Shi Yan’s face was dismal. He paled, as he had never felt so helpless like this. It was too aggrieving to give the control over his life to others. He didn't like this feeling!
‘What to do? What to do now?’ Thoughts glided in his brain as he was trying to search for a suitable solution. However, soul power in his host soul was drawn away rapidly.
Shi Yan discolored.
The fast consumption of his soul power meant that the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame was encountering a hazardous situation. The faster Shi Yan’s soul power was sucked away, the worse situation the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame was in.
Soul power was the foundation of the host soul, which was condensed using Soul Consciousness. Once soul power was drained, the host soul would perish.
Soul power was the power of life, the original source of strength of a warrior!
At this moment, the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame was taking his life power to fight against the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame.
At this speed, the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame would drain his life power soon!
No! He couldn’t just wait like this!
Shi Yan’s complexion was brutal. He clenched his jaws as a devilish light shot out from his eyes. A magical light flashed across his head as his eyes brightened.
The Blood Vein Ring!
