Chapter 593: Perfect Duet
Across the immeasurable landmass of the subcontinent, Chen Wentian received the fourth immortal soul within his soul realm. As Qin Shuier sat down to cultivate and refine the vital water she extracted from four Spirit Lords, so did he with the four souls. These two were connected by the mysterious power of the soul realm which transcended the physical world, one human and one demon, two beings striving for the Spirit King Realm at the same time.
Chen Wentian held no thoughts like pity or sadness toward the four human souls he was about to refine. If anything, he felt a tinge of irony toward Immortal Desolate Sword Peng Yuefeng. He had no idea why that old sword immortal had antagonized him at the beginning of the Immortal Sect Competition. Perhaps Peng Yufeng had wanted to bully a newbie immortal. But now, their soul was about to be utterly destroyed by his hand.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com
The floating figure of Chen Wentian appeared in front of the four hazy souls. Trapped by unknown powers, they could not move nor could they fight back. They made a variety of noises akin to crying and angry yells but it didnt matter. There was no escape.
He extended his hands and summoned the power of his souls. A bright blue star flashed, sending a beam of blazing fire which lanced through all four souls at the same time. As they screamed in pain, another star glowed a brilliant purple. Rays of sword flared across the vast emptiness, slicing through the souls one by one.
What followed was a succession of immortal powers. There was mighty strength and crushing force of the Golden Serpent. There was the unescapable darkness of Chen Mo, the shadow fox. The Insightful Swallow added its saber might. The Comet Lynx added chaotic wind attacks. After them came the Fire Wolf and the Ice Wolf siblings and the might of Summer and Winters Eternal Sutra. And then there were the void lances of the Queen Void Bee, the heavy punches of the Steel-Furred Gorilla, and finally, the mountain-crushing might of the Jade Tusk Elephant.
All of Chen Wentians immortal souls added their strength and refined the four souls together. At this moment, there werent separate avatars but a single soul, working towards a common goal.
The four souls were turned into nothingness, leaving behind an enormous surge of soul energy that spread out in all directions. Almost instantaneously, all the soul stars which had displayed their unique abilities hid away. The soul realm became dark once more, darker than night, than the void.
The only one that remained was Chen Wentian only his foggy figure was no longer there. He had already become one with the soul realm. This space was his domain, not a star but the whole realm. It was him, the manifestation of his soul.
He absorbed all of the soul energy for himself, leaving nothing for the subordinate souls. With this boost, his soul realm rapidly expanded toward the limit. It felt like a bubble was expanding with unstoppable force.
He soon met an invisible barrier that stopped the expansion. But he still had plenty of strength left. Unlike the last two times, he was fueled by the souls of four Spirit Lords. It was inevitable, it was only a matter of time.
Spiritual energy pulsed in great waves, creating circular undulations in the dirty and loose stones. High above, these same pulses ripped the clouds apart, creating concentric circles that led the sunlight through upon a particular spot which was the epicenter.
Suddenly, there was a great surge of immortal might followed by a flash of blinding white light. A beam of heavenly energy shot down like a divine lance and pierced the earth. It was a gift from heaven, signifying ones achievement.
Simultaneously, the skies above the Gulf of Giant Tortoises opened up. Another beam of heavenly light shot down, piercing the untold depths and disappearing into the endless waves.
Chen Wentian and Qin Shuier, one human and one demon, both of them achieved a breakthrough at the same time. Like a perfect duet, they reached the Spirit King Realm in unison. These two who were entirely dissimilar, enemies even on the best of days, their fates would be forever intertwined by this event.
