The Carefree Soul Pearl was only a crystal formed by the soul energy in the Soul Cleansing Sea.
It was a rare item.
At this moment, Mu Rou vaguely understood something.
She wasn't slow or stupid.
The moment she saw the Carefree Soul Pearl, she recalled what had happened on this trip and guessed something.
"You … you left earlier to return to the island and snatch this Carefree Soul Pearl from the hands of the people on the island?"
Mu Rou's eyes reddened.
But at this moment, the huge suction force from the cauldron made it difficult for her to move.
Her soul was disappearing at an extremely fast speed.
Especially when Fairy Meng put the Carefree Soul Pearl into the cauldron.
An even stronger suction force suddenly erupted from the cauldron, quickly pulling Mu Rou and Shang Jun's souls into it.
"Not enough!
Still not enough! "
A violent roar came from the cauldron again.
Fairy Meng ignored Mu Rou and frowned slightly. Then, she said in a low voice,
"There is still one more soul. I believe this soul should satisfy you."
After saying that, Fairy Meng looked at the golden light pillar on the island with a deep gaze.
A cold snort came from the cauldron.
"Why?"
Mu Rou's soul became more and more transparent. Her body slowly disappeared from the bottom. But the angry roar was very loud, as if it was not the voice she should be emitting.
Fairy Meng glanced at her indifferently and did not say a word.
That gaze was very strange.
There was the indifference of looking down on all living beings, but there was also a sigh.
"Fairy Meng …" Shang Jun muttered.
After the souls of the human race were forced out of the Styx Waterfall.
Almost the entire human race was in a state of huddling together.
Whether they were immortal cultivators or other experts when they were alive.
Basically, they were united in order to let their souls survive.
In order to let the souls of ordinary humans be able to fight against the demonic souls, every once in a while, they would choose some human souls with good qualifications to be taught and nurtured.
To increase the combat power of the human side.
For example, Fairy Meng was a very famous immortal cultivator in the surrounding hundreds of islands.
Not only because she came from Cloud Gathering Island, but also because she often helped the surrounding islands to kill the demonic souls that had recently drifted over from the end of the waterfall.
She had high prestige and was very strong. Her appearance could be said to satisfy almost all the requirements of a 'fairy' among cultivators.
Even if it was just a soul, her charm was enough to kill anyone.
But Mu Rou didn't expect …
"She said there is another soul … Could it be Wang Aotian?"
Mu Rou's eyes were somewhat dazed as she looked at the light pillar in the distance. Her soul consciousness gradually became blurry.
"It's my fault."
This thought flashed through Mu Rou's mind before her soul consciousness dissipated.
Meanwhile.
In the highest palace on the island.
Vast amounts of Soul Energy seemed to fall from the array in the sky, rushing towards Wang Feng's location like rivers returning to the sea.
It was as if Wang Feng's body was going to explode.
"Success." Meng Yuanqing looked at Wang Feng with a complicated expression. "What a pity."
"It is indeed a pity."
"If our human race's situation hadn't reached such a stage … this child might really be able to become the savior of the world.
His soul aptitude is indeed too good. "
"Such a pure soul, coupled with the soul energy stored in our sect, rushed in all at once.
He was unable to withstand it and could only disperse his soul. However, Senior Brother Meng's Soul Controlling Body Severing Technique was able to preserve his soul.
As a sacrifice … "
The people around Meng Yuanqin shook their heads.
But there wasn't much emotion in their eyes.
"This child's heart is pure. He didn't do anything evil when he was alive. He didn't even suspect much.
That's why he has such a pure soul.
It's a pity … "
As they murmured in low voices.
At this time, a low voice came from the golden light in the center of the array.
"Hey, I said, why are you doing this?
What's your purpose?
I'm about to die. Can't you let me die, understand? "
Hearing this voice, Meng Yuanqing and the other cultivators stilled.
"Fine. Our Mysterious Heaven Sect is a Righteous Sect in the Cloud Coming Domain. We've never done anything that goes against our Dao heart.
It's good that you understand. "
Meng Yuanqing looked at the sky and said, "Child, in your eyes, we're high and mighty cultivators. Even if we die, we're still extremely powerful.
In the Cloud Coming Domain, our Mysterious Heaven Sect is the leader of the Righteous Sect, the leader of the Immortal Dao in the world. We've inherited the legacy of Immortal Cloud Coming.
But after he died, we did such a thing. We secretly used you ordinary human souls as vessels to do things that go against our Dao heart. But … "
Speaking of this, Meng Yuanqing's eyes turned cold.
"Senior Martial Brother Meng!" a man next to him warned, "Be careful of traps."
"Traps?" Meng Yuanqing smiled and said, "He's just an ordinary human soul. What traps can he have?
And the Soul Controlling Body Severing Art has been completed. No matter how strange he is, it's useless.
What's the harm in telling him … Since we came out of the Nether River Waterfall, there's only a slim chance of survival for us human souls. "
The man sighed and shook his head.
"From what you said, you're hiding something?" Wang Feng's voice came slowly. It got lower and lower as if it would disappear at any time.
"Not really," Meng Yuanqing said lightly, "Child, you don't understand. This Soul World is much more complicated than you think.
We're not doing this to let those ordinary human souls fade away.
On the contrary … "
"You're doing this for them?" Wang Feng asked in surprise.
"Not completely. It's for ourselves," Meng Yuanqing said slowly.
"A Demon God's soul has descended into the Soul Washing Sea. We basically have no chance of entering the Reincarnation Well.
It's because the Demon God's soul is too powerful … It's not something we can resist. "
"Isn't it just a Demon God?
Is it that exaggerated? "
Wang Feng said, "You cultivators have always believed in going against the heavens. You inherited the Immortal's orthodoxy. Is a Demon God enough to suppress you to the point that you can't even breathe?"
"A Demon God?" Meng Yuanqing shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly, "It's far more than one Demon God.
That Imperial Demon God is just a Demon God who publicly appeared in the Soul Washing Sea.
In fact, not long ago, a second Demon God descended into the Soul World. "
"And this Demon God hates us humans to the core. He didn't go to the Soul Washing Sea.
Instead, he came to the area outside of the Nether River. The Demon God's soul is unbelievably powerful.
He didn't directly destroy all of our human souls. "
"Instead, he turned them into countless demonic thoughts and landed on various small islands."
Hearing this, Wang Feng let out a long 'oh'.
"To him, destroying us is as simple as a sneeze.
But this Demon God didn't do that. Instead, he made a deal with us … As long as we continuously bring him the best human souls.
Not only will he not attack us, he'll even take us into the Reincarnation Well. "
"You believe the Demon God's words?" Wang Feng asked.
"We have no choice but to believe," Meng Yuanqing said faintly.
Meng Yuan said calmly, "If we don't do that, he will immediately destroy all of our human souls."
"…" Wang Feng.
"Every once in a while, we'll go and collect the souls of ordinary humans … Sometimes, we can't find any and can only rely on ourselves."
Meng Yuanqing looked at the sky again, "We're cultivators and don't have much affection for ordinary humans. But our Ascension Heavenly Sect is a righteous sect and won't kill the innocent.
Even souls are the same. "
"Because you're a soul, once you disappear, you won't even have the chance to transcend. You'll disappear forever.
So, I've fulfilled your wish and told you this. "
Wang Feng was silent for a while after hearing this.
