“It’s not that bad if Mu Bai is chosen to be an envoy for the Dark Plane, right?” Zhao Manyan asked.
Xinxia immediately shook her head, “Once his soul is enslaved by the God of Darkness, the pain and suffering he endured prior to his death will be magnified significantly after he turns into a Darkness Creature. It’s how the God of Darkness enslaves the souls from our world for eternity. Even though we haven’t received any information about the Dark Plane, we can only imagine it’s worse than death. Death only happens briefly, but those who are enslaved by the God of Darkness will suffer eternal torture. Most undead do not have their own consciousness. They are merely walking corpses, yet Darkness Creatures have their own consciousness, spirit, and senses…”
“It’s similar to the Dark Beast Monsters, but Mu Bai’s rank in the Dark Plane will be slightly higher,” Mo Fan said.
Xinxia nodded. She had only read about the Dark Plane last night. She had basically opened a terrifying door leading to the unknown!
It was also the reason why she could not resurrect Mu Bai!
“Dark Beast Monsters… that’s one more reason we have to save Mu Bai!” Zhao Manyan declared.
“Mm, if we can’t save him, we should at least purify his soul to prevent it from falling into the God of Darkness’ hands,” Mo Fan agreed.
“Strange, why have I not heard about this before?” Zhao Manyan had to ask.
“We were still too weak in the past. There are things that we can only comprehend after we have reached the Super Level. The Dark Plane is very selective. The God of Darkness’ avatars will only choose powerful human Mages to replenish their lost numbers,” Xinxia said.
“What should we do now? Should we cremate him?” Zhao Manyan proposed.
Zhao Manyan studied Mu Bai. He suddenly felt sorry for Mu Bai when he realized how unfortunate the man was. Death was the final punishment for many people when they found themselves at a dead end, yet Mu Bai had been chosen by a God of Darkness’ avatar!
“If we can figure out a way to make the God of Darkness give up on Mu Bai, I can heal him without relying on the Spell of Resurrection,” Xinxia said.
“Let’s just cremate him instead!” Zhao Manyan rolled his eyes.
What kind of joke was that? If the God of Darkness was like Yama, the King of Hell, were living humans like them even worthy enough to negotiate with it? It would already be merciful by not enslaving them too!
Mo Fan was struggling to make a decision now.
They had no clue where to find the God of Darkness. How were they supposed to negotiate with it?
Even if they did find the God of Darkness, how could they possibly convince him to give up on something he had laid its eyes on?
The God of Darkness was most likely a far more formidable existence than Khufu!
The Dark Magic that had been used across mankind’s history was from the God of Darkness… It was a true god! Why would it care about a mere human’s request?
No wonder Xinxia told them the situation was much worse and complicated than she had thought yesterday.
They had thought that even if Xinxia was unable to use the Spell of Resurrection now, they could just wait until Xinxia defeated Izisha and was elected as the Goddess. Mu Bai only had to wait in the ice cocoon for a few years. It had been their last resort, yet it was no longer an option now.
“Xinxia, is there really no other option?” Mo Fan asked.
“The worst thing about Mu Bai’s condition is the fact that his soul is locked away by the God of Darkness’ avatar. If he doesn’t reclaim his soul, he won’t be able to recover, so his body is going to fail rapidly…” Xinxia said.
