891 Soul Remnants

Spiritual Light spread about, instantly covering 3,000 miles.

This formation, known as the Yin Yang Spiritual Turning Tides Formation, was actually half black and half white, like a Yin Yang fish shape.

It slowly shone a bright light, dyeing this entire space with two colors; black and white.

"Success!"

Zong Shou was delighted, waving his sleeves and releasing his few Protector Beasts to guard him.

He flew beside a black colored axis of the formation, at the fish eye of the Yin fish.

He closed his eyes, taking in a deep breath and adjusting his breath.

When he felt that his body had entered its best state, a streak of True Qi carried up the Mysterious Life Golden Book page and sent it across, into the axis of the Yang fish fish eye.

The moment the page reached it, a blinding golden light shot out. 

The golden light shone all over, causing this world which had no sun, no moon or stars, to be as bright as day.

All the remaining Spiritual Energy in this world formed into a huge whirlpool, sweeping toward this 800-mile large formation.

Zong Shou felt his head go numb. He knew that reviving a Saint Realm Venerable, even a Peak Saint Realm would cause a large commotion. If not for the fact that this world was hidden in the Xuwang Ocean, this could have possibly alerted surrounding worlds.

However, only when he personally witnessed it did he feel that it was totally different from what he imagined.

The formation was not only consuming the power of the Celestial Crystals he laid out, but it was also crazily absorbing all the remaining power of this world.

Along with this Spiritual Energy storm rising up, Zong Shou felt an extremely strong attraction absorbing his True Qi and Soul Power.

In just three-hundredths of a second, he was nearly sucked dry.

Only because his body had the Heaven Swallowing Energy Conversion Technique, he was able to block it for a moment.

He was able to avoid being directly squeezed dry which otherwise would have resulted in his death.

Zong Shou knew that this formation was gathering power as well as True Qi and lifeforce to inject into the Yang formation.

If there was a Peak Saint Realm or End Realm Expert here, with their large amount of True Qi and life-force, they wouldn't be afraid of being sucked dry and they could just directly inject in energy.

If it was simply not enough, then they could eat several pills before carrying on.

At this moment, he wasn't even able to provide 1% of the True Qi that the formation needed.

The seven drops of Heaven Snatching Liquid was used here.

However, due to this formation needing lifeforce energy, an ocean amount of it, Saint Realm Venerables who had 14,000 years of lifespan had to use a third of that for this formation.

Thus, even though the Common People's Path had the Mysterious Life Golden Book, no one was able to revive the few Saint Realm Venerables.　　

Even his Master Lin Xuanshuang was the same.

On the contrary, the God Realm and Celestial Realm Cultivators benefited greatly these few years.

He didn't dare to delay, his finger flicking out as three drops of the blue sticky liquid floated in front of him.

In an instant, he felt more relaxed. The suction force on his body was reduced by half and shifted on those three drops of Heaven Snatching Liquid instead.

Then, the golden light became brighter and more majestic, like a sun shooting out unlimited light.

An extremely strong golden light shone in the air.

At this moment, not only did this world have a Spiritual Energy storm, but the outside region of Xuwang Ocean also had a giant whirlpool wrapping around this world.

Zong Shou didn't worry about it, stretching out his Spiritual Sense to every single corner of this Yin Yang Formation.

He went all out, opening up all the Spiritual Meridians to suppress and lead the Spiritual Energy around to maintain the rotation of the formation.

The golden light was blinding, the Heaven Snatching Liquid in front of him was also decreasing rapidly. 

The various attainments snatched from Heaven and Earth were disappearing swiftly and scattering in this 800-mile formation.

Opposite, above the Yang fish eye, there were also changes.

One could roughly see the shape of a person who was appearing within the light, it was like a shadow that had a really ethereal aura. 

Jingyin and Lu Wubing looked on from the side. They both couldn't help but hold their breaths.

Zong Shou didn't wait for those three drops to be used up and shot out two more.　　

At this moment, the formation had passed the initial stage where it absorbed large amounts of lifeforce and energy. It slowly stabilized and became gentler.

The next stage was to wait. As long as it stabilized, the formation would form his Master's True Image Soul.

Zong Shou didn't dare to let his guard down as he continued to fully focus.

A moment later, his mind sensed something. He looked into the sky in shock.

He only felt that this broken world which was on the verge of death suddenly came back to life.

Threads of broken Spiritual Sense were being absorbed by the page of the Mysterious Life Golden Book.

They flew over from all directions and gathered at the Yin Formation Eye.

What followed was an intent filled with great sadness, extreme despair and a hard to describe sense of longing. There was also determination and no regrets hidden within.

It struck his soul causing him to almost lose control as his Soul Ocean nearly shook.

Only after several breaths did he come back to his senses. He adapted to the huge intent wave and recovered.

Just a slight thought and Zong Shou knew the reason.

"These were the last thoughts of Xuanshuang before she died? What a sad Spiritual Sense, she longed for this world but also had no regrets. She also didn't regret going through the tribulation. At that time, my Master had become a Saint for only 1,000 years, originally she didn't need to rush to succeed. However, who knows what caused such hatred? Was it that person from the Taoist Faction…"

All of a sudden, Zong Shou understood where that feeling of him being stared at when he entered this world came from.　　

"Master's soul remnants were actually not totally destroyed by the End Realm tribulation. They didn't dissipate and lasted till now. But, it didn't have any power to get through the Xuwang Ocean and back to the Vast Habitat. As such, it's bound to the depths of the source of this world to take a breather…"

Thinking about it, Zong Shou's eyes lit up slightly, a joy flashing across his face.

The fact that the soul had not dissipated added another 30% chance to this all succeeding.

It also meant that if his Master recovered her body, she would be able to get back the abilities that she had when she was alive.

As time went on, the shadow within the golden light stabilized.

One could start to see flesh and blood growing once more.

Right as many people focused their eyes on her, a strong Spiritual Sense exploded out.

It chased Zong Shou's Spiritual Sense out of the Yang Formation axis, directly taking over the Yang Formation.

There seemed to be a barrier appearing in front of the shadow, blocking off Zong Shou and Lu Wubing's gazes.
