1438 Resurrection Part 3 (2/2)

Saleen's current power did not allow him to fully absorb that divine persona. He took the divine persona off his Thunder Dragon Blaster and held it in his hand before beginning to slowly absorb its power, per the general's instructions.

The way Saleen went about it was different. He had to first infuse his lightning territory into the divine persona before extracting power within the divine persona as slowly as possible.

Saleen felt the pulse from the depths of his soul. Such a pure power of water element triggered his soul in a parallel space easily. Two souls of even higher purity burst through the barrier in space and were absorbed into Saleen's body. All three pieces of his soul melded within the lightning territory without any signs of rejection.

The enhancement of the power of the soul was much easier than before. That was because Saleen had begun to master territory and the naturally formed lightning rules in his territory were of the highest rules after all, which afforded extremely powerful protection to his soul.

There was no need for his souls to generate greater power to return to his body. Saleen did not anticipate any of that. He nonetheless remembered what the general told him—seeing his soul stabilized did not mean he could let his guard down. He needed to continue to stabilize his soul.

Saleen then continued to extract more power from the water element god's divine element in order to strengthen his soul. This wasn't a common method; it was a method created by the general. Saleen did that because he had a body of water element that melded well with the divine persona of the water element god.

Even so, the level difference between him and the general was still too great. Most of the power in the divine persona ended up being wasted.

Fortunately, Saleen didn't need that much, to begin with. The divine persona hardly changed at all even after Saleen extracted power from it.

The contracts he had signed at the depths of his soul became even clearer. Saleen saw the contract belonging to Nailisi and it basically the same. He was somewhat relieved and looked at the two kept being at his side all the while. Rafel then answered, ”Only a month has passed.”

Nicholas was frustrated, by contrast. He was not capable of not eating or drinking like Saleen, and there was little good food to be had in the metal house. For one whole month, he had been eating stale bread instead of fresh loaves.

A month?

Saleen felt as if it had taken less than an hour to feel the rise of his soul's power.

There wouldn't be too much happening in the mainland in just a month. The priority now was to save Nailisi!

By the time Saleen walked out of the metal house, the heroic spirits had long returned to their respective graves. A lot went through Saleen's mind when he saw that desolate cemetery. He had once thought he would never visit the place again, much less expect he would show up there for Nailisi's sake. He had even promised the general to come again, bringing them more items related to the gods.

Saleen came before the general's grave and took out the crystal coffin. Nailisi's appearance was sad and pitiful. The space where her heart once beat had been thoroughly penetrated. Because of the Winged Skull's protection, Nailisi still looked like she did when she was killed.

Sigh...

Saleen let out a long sigh and said, ”General, please come out.”

”No need for that!” A huge hand extended from the ground and took Nailisi's crystal coffin into the grave.

Saleen quickly took out the crystal ball and ended up being taken into the grave himself as well.

The space inside the grave was not very big. In fact, it was far smaller compared to Nailisi's 12 Notes of First Purgatory. Saleen sensed right away that his power of the soul had become unnervingly stable within that space. If he used his sensory powers as they were outside, he'd be able to extend them to an area far larger than his territory.

The power of the soul kept vibrating, just like waves of an ocean. Such vibrations granted power but consumed the soul's power at the same time.

Saleen realized all of a sudden at the very second he was thrust into the grave how he should be treating souls and what he should do to walk the path from then on out.

An enormous stone coffin was seen a the center of the grave. The general sat at the side of the coffin and waved to Saleen.

”You happy now, Saleen?” The general asked.

Saleen bowed solemnly and replied, ”I will always remember your teachings. As for the gods, I will definitely think of something. I will bring whatever is within my power to bring. For those that I'm unable to, I will just lure them here instead.

Saleen could only comprehend how precious the grave was after he entered it. The reason the general permitted him entry was to learn of Saleen's soul vibrations in order to enter and extract Nailisi's soul brand and repair her damaged soul.

The second reason for bringing Saleen here was so that the general could instruct Saleen using the power of the grave, regarding knowledge of the soul. The instruction would have used up some of the grave's power. Saleen was not in a soul state and entering the space of the grave came with a price after all.
