Chapter 1339 Reconstruction

A sense of foreboding filled Merle.

He wondered if the Rule Soul Avatar was going to kill him.

He couldn't understand the Rule Soul Avatar's rationale for such an extreme step, though. Both his soul and the Rule Soul Avatar's were from the real body. So if the Rule Soul Avatar attacked him, then it would be tantamount to harming himself.

Boom!

When the raging law force descended from the sky's depths, Merle's eyes widened in astonishment. The Rule Soul Avatar was indeed going to kill him.

"Humph!"

Since Merle had a body at the Celestial God Realm, he wanted to brave the attack head-on.

"You!"

But as the law descended, he discovered that his physical body was insufficient to resist that mysterious law force.

As he had no defense against it, the law force coursed through Merle's body and reached his soul.

"Xavier, do you intend to destroy me?" Merle hissed with disbelief.

The Rule Soul Avatar was silent, and his expression remained cold. He released more law force and commanded it to surround Merle.

"Ouch!"

Merle fell to his knees as agony tore through him. He felt as though his soul was being ripped.

"Damn it!"

His face twitched as the torment continued. When he couldn't bear the pain any longer, Merle grimaced and rushed toward the Rule Soul Avatar. Anguish and bitterness were evident in his expression as he readied himself to attack before he lost consciousness.

"I will kill you!"

he swore through gritted teeth just before using the last of his physical strength to attack the Rule Soul Avatar.

Bang!

The incoming blow did not faze the Rule Soul Avatar. He stayed motionless as Merle's fist neared. To Merle's astonishment, his fist stopped in front of the Rule Soul Avatar's forehead as though blocked by an invisible barrier.

"Howl!"

Merle roared as several cracks appeared in his soul.

After he struggled for a while, his soul was torn to pieces.

He trembled and finally fell on the yellow sand.

Jenifer, who was watching from aside, was shocked. Her eyes widened, and her hand flew to her mouth.

"Did you kill him?"

The Rule Soul Avatar, who was still in the state of silvery eyes, did not respond.

Splash!

At this moment, Resurrection Force began to pour into Merle's body.

At the same time, the Rule Soul Avatar's face twitched involuntarily as he forcefully ripped a wisp of his soul and mixed it with the Resurrection Force.

The Resurrection Force and the wisp of the Rule Soul Avatar's soul worked in tandem to repair Merle's broken soul. After a few tense moments, Merle was revived.

"Hmm."

Merle opened his

ved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the Rule Soul Avatar would ask another question that would give him an unbearable headache, like the previous one.

"The fiend race," Merle answered.

"The reason," the Rule Soul Avatar prompted.

"Stupid! I'm not strong enough to find Elsa. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Merle stated coldly.

Looking for Elsa was Merle's goal, but he felt insufficiently prepared. He could handle a few problems with his current strength, but there were other tasks that he could not fulfill, especially when he encountered a more powerful warrior. And so, he was eager to become stronger.

The Rule Soul Avatar didn't object.

Satisfied with the changes in Merle after the resurrection, the Rule Soul Avatar nodded curtly. Then, the three figures disappeared into the yellow sand. They headed west to the edge of the Blood Cloud Region as it bordered the fiend race.

A month later, under a bloody sky, a thick fog of fiendish aura choked the air.

The barren and desolate land seemed devoid of any living creatures. While such surroundings would unsettle others, this was a paradise for the fiend race.

"Let's go in."

Merle appeared excited. Now that he had arrived at the fiend race's land, his path to becoming a powerful warrior was about to open.

"If we go in like this, we'll be killed in the wild."

The Rule Soul Avatar observed the surroundings with his silvery eyes. He spotted several uncanny laws which merged into a colossal net that covered the heaven and earth. Its function seemed to be the detection of the entry of powerful creatures from other races.

If he and Merle crossed the border, powerful fiends would be alerted, and then Merle and he would be hunted and killed.
