Chapter 298 - River Of Souls (2/2)

As he entered the vortex, he couldn't help but look about as he dropped. He discovered something mind-boggling.

The sea wasn't a sea...but a river…

The vortex closed.

Yan Zaizen saw all this and felt horrified. Others may not be able to see the river, or rather, what's inside it, but he did!

It was a river of souls!

Each soul was screeching and screaming as if in the most horrible of pain. They had varied shapes, some were humanoid, and others were animalistic, but they had that one aspect in common. There were even a few souls trying to devour the others. In that brief glance, Yan Zaizen felt as if he saw a glimpse of true Hell.

The soul chains were still tied to his body, starting to carry away his soul energy. He felt his soul become restrained, unable to evoke heavenly law or soul arts. He tried to struggle, but it felt useless. He wanted to use the black hole, but it wouldn't emerge!

”Shit!” Even his physical body was useless.

”Why struggle...you accomplished your goal.” The figure voice sounded, but the amusement in its voice was slowly lessening.

”Activate! Activate! Activate!” Yan Zaizen tried to urge the protective seal on his existence to activate, the swirling black hole. However, his heart went cold when an instinctual feeling emerged. Regardless of his desire, the seal won't activate unless his existence was threatened.

Unfortunately, it was not.

This reminded him of the Asura Phantom Realm when his body was dead and his soul was dissipating. At that time, his swirling black hole remained stagnant.

The only time the swirling black hole activated by his demand was during the sub-realm collapse, and only at the last second. It's likely because he was at the center of the explosion and it could've destroyed him in body, soul, and existence. Therefore, his swirling black hole emerged.

He felt helpless. Even his dao went quiet. Everything that was urged by his soul couldn't be accessed. His eyes were unwilling; his entire being was unwilling!

”Zai…” A soft voice echoed out. This belonged to Pinaka. Since the moment Pinaka met him, she had been in his soul being a companion of his. His strength had risen so rapidly that she was never used as a weapon, even more, Yan Zaizen was unwilling to use her as such. To him, she was more than that.

”Pin…aka!” He struggled to speak, his soul teetering on the verge of exhaustion. If it weren't for his recent soul cultivation breakthrough to the Perfect Astral Soul Realm, he would've already been drained dry.

”Zai...I'm sorry I'm so useless.” Pinaka felt horrible. Outside of a single moment in Yan Zaizen's life, she had been unable to help. Even now, she was useless in his struggle for survival.

When the sub-realm collapse, she was useless.

When heavenly cultivators besieged him in the Sirius Titan Realm, she was useless.

When he had fallen into an existential slumber, she was useless.

Throughout his adventures since, she could only watch him go through his decisions and life.

”Yo-YOU! A..ar...are...no...t,” he tried to communicate, but it was becoming increasingly difficult. His astral star had already gone from the Perfect Astral Soul to the Initial Astral Soul. It wasn't only carrying away his soul energy, but its essence, weakening it considerably.

Yan Zaizen felt urgent; his eyes were the picture of hatred as he stared the figure in front of him. He wished nothing more than to kill it!

In another second, his soul dropped from the Astral Soul Realm to the Initial Aurora Soul Realm, then fell to the Perfect Nascent Soul Realm the next!

A surge of light suddenly emitted from his soul. This light of sky-blue was brilliant beyond description erupted from Yan Zaizen's body. Suddenly, it seemed to take on the aura and characteristics of Yan Zaizen's soul.

Boom!

Yan Zaizen's physical body slipped through the chains and floated downwards. However, a soul form was still bound. This soul form was not in the shape of Yan Zaizen, but it had a womanly figure of beauty and pride. In her eyes was lava-like amber gold that emitted rays of imperious light, and her flowing black hair danced without wind.

Those eyes were fierce, containing no regret.

”If you want his soul, then you can have it!” As she thought this, the aura she released truly was perfectly identical to Yan Zaizen's. After soul-linking and dao-linking, they truly had very little difference concerning the soul.

Also!

Yan Zaizen soul had characteristics of an artificial soul!!!

”Oh?” The figure felt slightly shocked once more but didn't feel too concerned. His 'gaze' looked at Yan Zaizen's floating body, ”I'll let this go…” As he decided this, he 'looked' away. A vortex formed behind Pinaka. This vortex led to the river of souls!
