Chapter 158: Five death omens of an angel

Once Su Yu entered the black flames, he was immediately swallowed by it, he did not feel a burning heat but rather a frightening will that directly rushed at his mind, a formidable pressure that wanted to make him submit.

Su Yu immediately understood, this immense will that was being exerted on his mind was the sentience of the black flames acting on him, thinking back to the lost gazes of the group and also Ning Yan who was currently missing, Su Yu roared: “I won’t lose to you!” black scales began to appear on his body as the eighteen holes began to wildly suck in strange energy, the Rending Storm was activated as he smashed forward.

The frightening will wanted to force Su Yu to his knees but Su Yu’s capabilities was even more vigorous than it, he had sucked in strange energy and smashed, seeming to want to smash the immense will to bits.

Su Yu’s vigorous response caused the black flames to release an even more frightening aura and energy fluctuation, suddenly, black flames began to coalesce and press in from all directions, Su Yu was immediately unable to move, it felt as though he were being pressed by tens of thousands of jin, this force continued to press inwards making him feel as though his body could explode at any moment.

“Roar!” Su Yu howled, in the jaws of death, his vitality blazed as his spirit rose to an unprecedented level, the Protective Bulwark was activated as both arms also activated the Rending Storm, utilising the ten odd holes within his body to absorb strange energy as he continually funneled it into his arms, powering the Rending Storm as frightening amounts of white mist shot out like a steam engine.

Jade, Ma Ziye and the others who were outside were extremely anxious, although they could not see the actual situation, they could see the roaring black flames and could guess that it would be incredibly dangerous within.

Fang Jiong muttered: “If Su Yu is also unable to succeed, who amongst us has a chance to do so…….” Fang Jiong and Su Yu were both tier four experts and he could clearly tell how powerful Su Yu was.

Xiao Wei was filled with confidence: “I believe that big brother Su can succeed, Xiao Wei is the best at seeing through a person. For this fifth lifeform to recognise a master, strength is secondary, a strong will is the most important. Big brother Su has a very firm will, I can see that much.”

Qin Jiagui clenched his fist as it became covered in metal: “The fifth lifeform…… this damned world……”

Within the blazing black flames, a dazzling golden light suddenly erupted, at the same time, the people outside could hear the clear roars of Su Yu, this dazzling golden light was like a beam of light within the darkness, it was incomparably steady, the raging black flames gradually receded before thoroughly disappearing, leaving Su Yu who was half kneeled on the ground, sweat covered his brows as he continued to pant.

“Su Yu!” Ma Ziye, Jade and the others rushed forward.

Suddenly, Su Yu waved his hands telling them not to come closer, at the same time, he crossed his legs to sit on the floor, closing his eyes as large amounts of black flames began to swirl around his body like a mist, shrouding him within.

“Everyone, don’t disturb him. Big brother Su Yu has successfully gained the recognition of the fifth lifeform, he should be connecting with it right now!” Xiao Wei shouted.

Ma Ziye and the others swiftly came to a halt as they looked at the black flames which swallowed Su Yu, they did not dare to get any closer.

Su Yu closed his eyes as the black flames surged out of his body, shrouding his entire form. Within his mind, an extremely large space filled with white mist appeared, within this space, Su Yu was naked and covered in a gentle glow as he floated within, facing him was a ball of fluctuating black flames, within the black flames, two fissures that seemed like eyes appeared, at the same time, a stream of information also appeared within his head.

This sound was in a language that Su Yu understood, indistinct and seemingly ancient yet also young and tender like an infant, like the roar of a dragon or the ramblings of an old man.

The sound was indescribably strange, it was something that simply could not be explained with words.

“Human, your courage has gained my recognition, from this moment forth…… thou wilt form a soul companion contract with me……. If I perish……. So will you……”

Su Yu who was naked and shrouded in a light said in a heavy voice: “Does that mean that our lives will be one? As companions, whoever dies the other party will die as well?”

“No…… My death will be your death, your death might not result in my death.”

Su Yu was stunned: “The contract only works one way?”

“Before going through the soul companion contract, I don’t have something that is called a life……. I am an immortal existence, after becoming soul companions, I will then gain what is known as life, since I would have gained life, then there would possibly be an ending……. Life can evolve, but the price of evolution is that there is a chance of death……”

Su Yu now understood as he nodded: “After becoming soul companions with you, you will have the chance to evolve into an entirely new lifeform but what’s the benefit for me?”

The immense will sighed: “No matter what life form, their evolutionary goal is the same, that is perfection……. Causing one’s being to transform into a perfect form, that sort of perfection is the pinnacle of all life…… using the words of you humans, this sort of perfect life form could be called……. God!”

Su Yu’s entire body trembled: “God?”

“Regardless of the form of life, they have their own strengths and weaknesses. Within this world, there isn’t anything that is completely perfect. As the fifth form of life, we are incomparably close to that sort of perfection, we are unbelievably close to the aptitude of a god, however…… we have an extremely critical weakness, that is……. We cannot rely on ourselves to ignite our capabilities to grow……” The immense will sighed.

“The so called perfect life form……. Is actually the sixth form of life…… as the fifth form of life, we are incomparably close to that divine existence, as for you humans……. You belong to the third form of life……”

As Su Yu heard the immense will talk about the perfect sixth lifeform, his mind trembled as he suddenly thought of the ‘666’, the sixth lifeform was a form of life, they were both ‘6’……. Was there any connection?
