Chapter 3671 - 3671: Immortal Emperor Wuya

At this moment, at the very bottom of a forbidden ground, an Immortal Emperor’s soul was chained up to a stone pillar. Strange black glyphs flickered within the soul.

Miserable howls rang out from the soul, filled with despairing pain.

The strange black glyphs inside the soul was the Imprint of Soul Incineration and Stabilisation. This curse would make the soul face unimaginable pain and torture constantly.

At this moment, Jian Chen slowly appeared near the stone pillar. He stared at the soul chained up against the pillar in a daze as his heart trembled violently.

He had already found out about the true identity of the soul.

He was one of the past great elders of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Immortal Emperor Wuya.

Immortal Emperor Wuya was a figure from the same age as Immortal Emperor Taihang. He was one of the only three Immortal Emperors of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens back then.

Among the three Immortal Emperors of the past, Immortal Emperor Taihang had already perished on the Grand Sovereign Heaven. All of the disciples from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens who left with him had met a bad end.

Right now, in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, he met the second person among the three Immortal Emperors, Wuya!

From elder Nong, Jian Chen learnt that Immortal Emperor Wuya had already perished several hundred thousand years ago, yet his soul was here right now, which meant that Immortal Emperor Wuya had already been tortured for several hundred thousand years.

Looking at how much pain Immortal Emperor Wuya was in, Jian Chen immediately felt sorrow, together with surging killing intent towards the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

“Senior Wuya!” Jian Chen tried calling for him, but Immortal Emperor Wuya’s soul had already been tortured to a point of madness. He had lost his mind, so he could not hear anything from Jian Chen at all.

That only made Jian Chen’s heart ache even more.

To the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens back then, both Immortal Emperor Taihang and Immortal Emperor Wuya were prestigious seniors, yet he currently suffered such inhumane torture, which left Jian Chen filled with pain.

“Source of Life, are you able to assist him in any way, or do you have any method to alleviate senior Wuya’s pain?” Jian Chen secretly communicated with the Source of Life.

“My power can only heal the body. It’s not effective on the soul.” Surprisingly, the Source of Life did not kick up a fuss this time and instead answered calmly.

Jian Chen stared at the chains on Immortal Emperor Wuya’s soul. After a close examination, he confirmed that the chains did not harm Immortal Emperor Wuya. He raised his hand and cut through the chains with a few strands of sword Qi.This §ub§tanc€ is firm1¥ €mb€dd€d in n0v*lbin★

However, with the chains severed, Immortal Emperor Wuya’s soul had only been freed. It did not alleviate any of the pain he suffered.

“Kill me... q-quick, kill... me...”

Each word seemed to take all of Immortal Emperor Wuya’s strength to utter, requiring extremely great willpower. When he said the final word, he could not help but howl again. His soul spasmed violently.

If it were not for the Imprint of Soul Incineration and Stabilisation’s consolidation, the inhumane agony probably would have ripped his feeble soul apart a long time ago.

Jian Chen did not understand the Imprint of Soul Incincernation and Stabilisation, so he immediately asked the Source of Life, the Primeval Divine Hall, and the twin swords.

As it turned out, neither the Source of Life nor the Primeval Divine Hall understood this technique. They could only see that it was quite profound and created by a peak expert. They knew nothing else.

“Master, you better just kill him,” the sword spirits said.

When he heard that, Jian Chen’s heart immediately sank. “Don’t tell me I’m really unable to remove the Imprint of Soul Incineration and Consolidation?”

“You can’t, as this imprint results in certain death. The imprint has fused with his soul. The soul can only survive when the imprint exists, but once the imprint vanishes, the soul will perish as well.”

“As a result, even if you manage to remove the Imprint of Soul Incineration and Consolidation, the soul will disperse as soon as you achieve that.”

“It’s said that this imprint was created by a Grand Exalt of the Daemons’ World. It contains the truths of the ways, so it’s no regular curse.”

Jian Chen immediately fell silent after hearing the sword spirits’ explanation. He stared blankly at Immortal Emperor Wuya who endured the excruciating pain as his heart weighed heavily.

He had finally found one of the original members of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens after so much difficulty, yet they were in a state where death was guaranteed. The deep sense of powerlessness was torturous to Jian Chen.

Kill him?

How could he bring himself to do that?

“Argh! Argh! Argh— K-kill me, kill me... quick, kill me...”

“I-if you really a-are a disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, t-t-then I beg you. Quick, kill me...”

“Kill me... kill me... set me... free. Please... I beg you... I’m begging you...”

Immortal Emperor Wuya’s soul twisted violently as if it took him all of his strength to say those broken words. He was in agony, basically wishing for death.
