Chapter 575: A Battle Between Soul And Life Part 2

Tian and Camlia both watched as the goddess of life's body shook at Angelica's command. She gritted her teeth and used every ounce of her willpower to resist the command. "You! How!? The Ghost Empress should already be dead! Her trial is impossible to pass! So how!?" The young woman did not understand. She knew how hard the Ghostempress trial was. There should be no one who is able to pass it!

"How? All I did was read some books." Angelica said with a smile before curling up her finger and motioning towards the young woman in front of her. The young woman looked as if she was struggling. Her face began to turn red, and the veins in her head began to pop out.  The pain of having her soul practically ripped out of her body was almost unbearable. If it was not for the fact that she was the goddess of life and that her body was constantly healing itself and her soul, giving some resistance to Angelica's power of word, she would have already have had her soul ripped from her body.

"You!" The young woman waved her hand, creating thousands of monsters. She could only create monsters as she had not learned to create humanoids yet. That was something she could only do once she became a true god. But with thousands of monsters at her side, she did not think she could lose.

"Humph! Lie down!" Angelica yelled out, her voice booming across the void. The monsters who were summoned all shook and laid down. Angelica sneered and once again yelled out: "Come here now!"

"Ahhh!" The young woman could no longer control her own soul. The last command was much more powerful. Her soul ripped from her body, and as if in a daze, walked over to Angelica. 

Angelica watched as the young woman's body slumped to the ground. She then focused on the soul in front of her. Within it was a white and green light swimming around. She stared at it for a long time before finally saying: "So this is what makes one the goddess of life…." 

"Can you separate it?" Tian asked out of curiosity.

"Mmm… I should be able to." Angelica answered while giving a slight nod. She reached into the young woman's soul and grabbed ahold of the white and green light, and pulled it out. It looked like nothing more than a wisp as it quietly floated above her open hand.

"Hmmm… not bad you even separated it." A voice floated right into Angelica's ear, causing her to jump away.

"Old man!" Angelica felt as if her heart was about to jump out. The sudden sound of a voice right next to her ear scared the hell out of her.

"Hoho! Sorry. I just saw that it was over and came to take a look. I will be taking this wisp as it is needed right away. I would like to ask you to send her soul to be reincarnated but with no memories if you could after you are sent out." That old man looked at what was once the goddess of life and sighed. 'She was once a good girl, but power corrupted her...' 

"Alright, I will take care of it. Can you bring these monsters out as well? They were created by her, but it is not right to kill them for no reason." Angelica felt bad for the monsters as they were birthed into existence by the goddess of life. To have to kill them right away just did not seem right.

"No problem. No problem. Let's get out of here." The old man waved his hand, and everyone disappeared from the void. 

When they reappeared, they found themselves back in the ancient library. "Angelica, you have helped your mother greatly. I will now go and implant the goddess of life into your mother while she is still undergoing her evolution. Once her evolution is over, she will become a force that is unstoppable. She can only start getting stronger from here on out."

"Then I thank you." Angelica bowed her head and thanked the old man for once. She then waved her hand and pulled the old goddess of life's soul through a gate to the realm of the dead. 

Camlia and Tian stood there scratching their heads. "It seems they forgot about us..."

"Maybe it is for the best. " Tian replied with a dry laugh. "Camlia. It is time for you to go to the sea of stars. You have waited long enough."

"I was planning on it. I am just glad everything worked out okay. But to think, Kana's children, my godchildren, are just as much as little power freaks as she is. Angelica only said a few words and was able to rip the soul right out of the goddess of life, who is from a realm far above the sea of stars. It just goes to show how much I have been slacking." Camlia said as she looked at her little fist and clenched it. "I will grow stronger so I can still be considered a big sister to Kana, or else I will be left behind."

"You can do it. You just need to grow stronger and stronger. There is nothing but time, and only the hard work needs to be put into it all. Go to the searing desert in the sea of stars. In a location hidden from prying eyes is an underground palace. Pass its trials, and you should be able to grow stronger faster." Tian patted Camlia on the head and disappeared.

Camlia touched her head and pursed her lips. But she remembered his words and made note to go there as soon as possible. "It's about time I go mess with that old pervert in the soulist realm."

Inside Kana's ship, the old man appeared inside her bedroom, where her egg was resting comfortably wrapped in blankets. Seeing the shiny egg that was now twice its original size and seemed to be well taken care of made the old man smiled. "These daughters of hers truly are for her. But it is to be expected as she has always been someone who cares highly of others. Now then to finish my mission..."
