454 The Dark Art, Soul Guidance (2/2)

This was because the Soul Guidance technique accelerated the absorption of Dark Qi and compressed the Dark Fire inside one's body.

This allowed multiple Dark Fires to appear. The number of Dark Fire appearances would differ according to each individual's natural talents.

According to the Dark Sect's records, the highest number of times the Dark Fires multiplied was eighty-one times. This meant that eighty-one Dark Fires layered over one another and eventually formed a Dark Core. Its power was immense. The person who had achieved such a feat was… the Senior Brother beside him, Chen Qing!

Others had managed to reach a couple of dozen layers as well.

As a means of attack, the Soul Guidance technique would summon a Dark Hand from inside one's body. This Dark Hand could pierce through the flesh of all living creatures and grab hold of its soul!

This was Soul Guidance!

Powerful beyond measure!

If a Dark Core realm cultivator unleashed this technique, its power would be even greater!

After regaining these memories, Wang Baole's breathing quickened. Besides painting Corpse Faces every day, he began to practice the Soul Guidance technique. It was still a struggle for him to practice this divine power, but its effect of increasing one's Dark Fires was clear, especially where Wang Baole was concerned. The Dark Fires inside his body grew from its original three to four, then five, then six, then seven…

At the end of the two weeks, he had seventeen Dark Fires inside his body. When they were layered together, their combined power surpassed that of what he had in the past!

Now, when he walked around in the Dark Sect, the mere aura that he exuded would strike fear and awe into the hearts of those souls outside the sect who had sinned greatly in their past lives and had been punished and made into servants. When they saw him, they would quake in their boots and prostrate themselves before him.

This was an awesome aura that Wang Baole hadn't possessed when he had first returned to the Dark Sect!

Wang Baole had thought that the days that followed would be as peaceful as they were now, that they would pass quietly. However, after seven days passed, suddenly, one day at noon, sudden winds swept into the Dark Sect. Lightning descended, and the heavens boomed with thunder. The skies darkened as an overpowering aura descended from the starry skies!

The aura was simply too overpowering. There were seven presences, and six of them had surpassed the power of a heavenly presence. When they descended, the entire sky quaked, and the planets beyond the Dark Sect shuddered. All living creatures felt a weight upon them. It was as if time itself had slowed down.

They were secondary to the seventh presence. As soon as it appeared, all planets beyond the Dark Sect let loose a loud booming sound. It was as if they were about to collapse into themselves. One could even see lines of fractures appearing on each planet. The Gates of Rebirth on the planets began to sway, and their brightness dimmed. The rivers of souls passing through the gates trembled and froze, seemingly unable to move.

Every Dark Sect disciple on the planets began breathing quickly and unevenly. Alarm and shock rose like waves in their minds. It was the same for the giant planet that the Dark Sect was on. Giant beasts trembled, countless souls shrieked, the earth shook, and the heavens thundered. In the skies above the Dark Sect appeared… seven suns!

Amongst the seven suns, six were crimson red. Only one was purple!

As soon as they appeared, a voice filled with intense fury and violence howled from within the purple sun!

”Ming Kunzi, hand over my daughter's soul!”

As the howl thundered out, an intense purple light exploded from the purple sun. The same happened with the surrounding six red suns. Light blanketed the entire region in an instant. Violence and heat, carrying infinite destruction, seemed to be threatening the complete annihilation of the region! It appeared as if it was about to crush and turn everything into dust!

As the overwhelming power erupted, within the Dark Sect, an equally overpowering aura erupted. Numerous moons rose to the skies. There were thirteen bright moons, and each one of them exuded a power that rivaled the red suns. They pushed back the intense aura of the red suns, and it was then that the fourteenth moon rose into the sky!

The color of this moon was black!
