Chapter 426 - The Truth Of The Dead Soul Sea (2/2)
A corrupted soulforce generally meant Immortality. Yes, Immortality in the truest sense. However, with everlasting traits came a weakness. It required an enormous amount of soul energy to maintain one's state of existence. This was why the Dead Soul Sea slowly consumed exuded soul energy of other beings, the extend the existence of the Dead Soul beneath it. If there came a day where it could no longer consume soul energy, replenish its soulforce, it might survive, but it would no longer be itself.
After he explained this to the two, Lin Feilin's breathing sped up. ”An Infernal Deity is actually beneath us?!” There was a tinge of fear in her eyes. She had read all sorts of records and was relatively knowledgeable despite her cultivation base.
An Infernal Deity was an existence similar to a Heavenly Commander. An expert who forged their Seventh Stage of their Hell Altar. They were supreme existences, and only Heavenly Creation Realm experts could even hope to contend with them.
Yan Zaizen was somewhat shocked about the extent of Lin Feilin's knowledge. He nodded.
”I can't rely on just the Herculean Path to reclaim my body. It might not be enough. I must have a contingency if it doesn't work.” Yan Zaizen calmly explained, his amber-gold eyes peering into the ground. That was right, he fully intended to cultivate the Infernal Path!
While normally, the Infernal Path required a Soul Regalia of the Heavens, he would have to substitute his Paragon Soul Realm and comprehension of the Soul Source Path. It wasn't likely that his soul could recover with the meagre resources of this continent or realm.
To put it simply, a strand of his soul power at its peak could obliterate the entire Xiantu Realm and its countless beings in the matter of seconds. If he wanted to recover a strand, the soul resources here weren't enough. Perhaps the Source Ring wouldn't contain enough resources to rise.
Furthermore, as his soul was far too powerful, he would require too much time to restore his soul energy. Therefore, he had to form an easier, quicker way to cultivate another form of energy that may or may not work against the Deep Mine's mysterious force.
”...The Infernal Path, it's outlawed, right?” Lin Feilin asked, the fear not abating within her heart. Instead, it continued to gradually increase.
Yan Zaizen truly was startled by Lin Feilin's knowledge. Indeed, the Infernal Path was outlawed. And, it wasn't just in the 27th Heaven. It was all thirty-three heavens, unanimously outlawed by the in-seat Heavenly God. It was that abhorred.
This had to do with the Infernal Path's means, methods, origins, and lastly: Threat! Yes, threat! Those that could reach the Infernal Path had to have an outstanding foundation into the soul, and for Heavenly Cultivators, their souls were their weakest parts.
If it was freely cultivated, a true expert could topple them and claim their throne. And this was because of the peak-Sovereign Soul Conceptual Law requirement that it needed and surprisingly, it was also one of the requirements for claiming the Heavenly God's title.
Clap!
Yan Zaizen smacked his hands together, causing Lin Feilin to start. ”Normally, I'd avoid it cultivating this path as its not all beneficial. However, I don't have a choice now. Furthermore, I have my way around the Heavenly Restriction enforced.” The Herculean Path was similarly outlawed, and now that he had the Heavenly Dao Seed, he could absorb or avoid any threat.
With this handled, he had made ample preparations.
As for the materials for his Infernal Hell Altar?
He grinned as he looked at the endless red sea of sand.
Wasn't he standing on it?
