Chapter 164 Repairing the Divine Soul, Collapse and Scattering
After Qin Chengcheng and Chen Yi's divine senses entered the mysterious soul thunder space, Qin Chengcheng's divine soul was instantly infused with a surging torrent of purple lightning soul thunder.
Her innate lightning talisman was slightly weaker and could hardly resist the erosion of this level of soul lightning. In an instant, her consciousness dissipated and she fainted.
Chen Yi clearly sensed that Qin Chengcheng's soul essence was being rapidly devoured and dissolved by the Purple Lightning Soul Thunder, and was on the verge of collapse.
The original flaw in her soul's origin, now like a breach in a dam, became the key weakness that allowed the Purple Lightning Soul Thunder to completely destroy her defenses.
Chen Yi's mind sank slightly. He then used his divine sense to transform the invading purple lightning spirit light into a pure soul-replenishing power, precisely filling the gap in Qin Chengcheng's soul origin.
Chen Yi drew in, absorbed, and refined all the Soul Thunder Space Power that surged in and that Qin Chengcheng's soul could not bear.
Because it was isolated within this strange soul lightning space, the vast soul lightning energy here could not be transmitted back to its main body.
Chen Yi had no choice but to passively pour all the spiritual energy and power of this massive soul lightning into the divine thought that contained the essence of the purple lightning soul lightning and the four elements, to deeply temper and enhance it.
Unbeknownst to him, under the continuous nourishment and stimulation of countless high-level purple lightning soul thunder energies and spirituality, Chen Yi's special divine sense began to undergo continuous transformation and sublimation, its essence constantly improving.
At a certain instant, a fundamental qualitative change occurred within it!
The purple lightning and soul thunder radiance that enveloped the body completely merged and mutually generated with the essence of divine consciousness within, which carried the origins of the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind.
Ultimately, it coalesced into a dazzling and magnificent five-colored divine consciousness: its core radiated five colors of light—purple, cyan, blue, red, and gold.
The essence of this newly formed divine consciousness instantly leaped to a higher level, and its degree of refinement and the power it contained were already infinitely close to the level of a late-stage third-order cultivator.
Its form also becomes stable.
Like a naturally formed divine thunder whip, its body is covered with fine thunder patterns like dragon scales. With the slightest thought, it can unleash a combined attack that blends the annihilating power of soul thunder with the power of the Four Symbols Laws.
Its instantaneous burst of pure destructive power has far surpassed the strongest thunder soul power that his own body can unleash.
Simultaneously,
With the help of Chen Yi's wisp of divine thought,
Qin Chengcheng's soul was on the verge of collapse, but it had not yet truly broken down.
Under the infusion of the soul thunder's spiritual power, an unknown amount of time passed.
Qin Chengcheng regained her senses and came to her senses.
At this moment, only the enormous soul lightning energy remained in the entire eerie space, but its spirituality had been completely exhausted.
Qin Chengcheng's mind was filled with the same information about the Thunder Soul Sect's heritage as the two women before her. At the same time, she felt a renewed sense of mission to revive the Thunder Soul Sect or pass on its legacy.
She knew she had survived the most dangerous hurdle.
As instructed by the mechanical voice, it will help Qin Chengcheng restore his original soul essence.
However, for Qin Chengcheng now, this matter has become nothing more than an obsession.
She was 99.99% certain about what had happened regarding the lost memories.
because,
Just as her soul was being sucked away, a divine thought attached itself to her from behind.
That divine thought possessed the attribute of soul lightning, and within it was a minor five-element divine consciousness, sharing the same origin as a portion of her divine consciousness.
In that instant, she understood.
This divine thought must belong to the person who helped her break the seal on her soul, and also the person with whom she first shared a divine communion with the Phoenix Dance in the Nine Heavens.
Otherwise, her soul wouldn't have been tainted by the other party's divine sense attributes.
Of the people present, the only one who might be the one is Chen Yi.
In this way, everything makes sense.
"Hmph, now you finally admit it, don't you?"
In that instant, Qin Chengcheng thought that if he didn't die today, he would call Chen Lang from now on.
In the future,
Whether he wanted to live a quiet life in seclusion or travel to the ends of the earth, she stayed by his side, never leaving him.
But these were just fleeting thoughts.
The subsequent endless space of soul lightning scattered her consciousness.
However, deep within her soul, she subconsciously harbored a willingness to accept that wisp of Chen Yi's divine thought.
Because they share a common origin, and because of this subconscious liking and acceptance,
This allowed Chen Yi's wisp of divine thought to so easily enter the gap in her soul's origin, merging with her to simultaneously defend against and accept the intrusion and infusion of those purple lightning soul thunders.
Now that the Thunder Soul Sect's inheritance has been received, the spirituality of the entire Thunder Soul Space has decreased, and coupled with the strengthening of Chen Yi's divine sense...
In his field of vision,
The entire strange space suddenly became "visible," as if countless soul lightning bolts were emanating from somewhere within it.
Enclose this space.
Chen Yi had almost no concept of the size of this space, which seemed to be only survivable by special spiritual energy.
However, after undergoing sublimation, the perception of this wisp of his divine sense improved considerably.
He could "see" some sights that were incredibly awe-inspiring to him.
Beyond the boundary of the sphere intertwined with purple lightning, streaks of light trailing rune chains occasionally flashed through the chaotic gray mist, each flash causing a stinging sensation of being spied upon by divine senses.
Further away, several giant spheres covered with unknown runes were emitting spiritual light, and the runic fluctuations they emitted were in no way weaker than the soul lightning light where Chen Yi was located.
"roar--"
A dark, lumpy shape suddenly crashed into the network of soul lightning, emitting a piercing shriek that sent shivers down the spine as it was scorched by the purple lightning.
Chen Yi keenly noticed that the dissipating dark energy seemed to originate from the same source as the awe-inspiring black demonic thought in this secret realm, yet it was of an extremely high grade.
The most bizarre thing is the trajectory of those lights—they disappear without warning and then reappear in places that completely defy the laws of space.
All sounds acted directly on the level of the soul, as if the concept of "sound" did not exist in this dimension at all.
Chen Yi was extremely vigilant.
The cultivation world is far more terrifying than he imagined; it is a place he cannot fathom at present.
He must not become complacent just because he has achieved some success.
Even the Thunder Soul Sect, which dominated ten thousand years ago, perished for reasons unknown.
Compared to the endless years of cultivation, his current strength is nothing more than a drop in the ocean.
Faced with the unknown and bizarre world, Chen Yi had already decided to leave.
However, Qin Chengcheng's soul seemed to still be receiving something.
Chen Yi's divine sense had already been pushed out of the core by Qin Chengcheng's divine soul essence.
At the center of this purple lightning space, beams of soul power appeared, transmitting towards Qin Chengcheng's soul origin.
Chen Yi sensed the situation briefly and guessed its general outline.
This is the inheritor replenishing Qin Chengcheng's missing divine soul essence.
While the other party was expending their own resources to compensate Qin Chengcheng,
Its own energy has weakened.
Chen Yi focused his divine sense and managed to catch a glimpse of the thing:
"It's an incredibly complex Soul Lightning Rune!"
Chen Yi was surprised.
Within this strange space, there exists a rune that controls the inheritance of the Thunder Soul Sect.
It can also emit soul lightning to protect this space.
As for the rune itself, Chen Yi focused his mind and took a clear look at it.
I was even more deeply shocked.
Its core concept is indeed the power of soul thunder, which is the same as Chen Yi's natal thunder talisman.
The soul lightning runes contained within also consist of 108 patterns.
However, the quality of each of its textures is more complex than that of Chen Yi's natal thunder talisman, which is 108 runes fused into one, to a degree that Chen Yi cannot currently perceive.
"Could this be the natal thunder talisman of some powerful figure from the ancient Thunder Soul Sect?"
"But wasn't it said that the Ancient Thunder Soul Sect was only a sect at the late Nascent Soul stage?"
"Could it be that the natal lightning talisman condensed by a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator has already reached a level beyond my comprehension?"
Several thoughts of surprise flashed through Chen Yi's mind.
He couldn't reach a conclusion on this issue for the time being.
He currently possesses some Core Formation combat power, but hasn't truly formed his Core, let alone the higher-level Nascent Soul stage.
This is a question he can only ponder after he has cultivated the [Purple Lightning Soul-Nourishing Technique] to a certain level.
The scene before us today will serve as a direction and guiding light for Chen Yi's future cultivation.
At the very least, let's create a natal lightning talisman of such strength before considering touching this strange soul power space.
Soon, Qin Chengcheng's soul essence was repaired.
The powerful inherited lightning talisman sent Qin Chengcheng's soul back to the real world and placed it back into her body.
With a ding,
Qin Chengcheng woke up.
When she opened her eyes, the first thing she felt was not joy at having received the Thunder Soul Sect's inheritance.
Instead, she looked at Chen Yi with her beautiful eyes and gently transmitted her voice:
"Chen Lang, I knew it was you! Are you still going to deny it?"
Chen Yi awkwardly touched his nose and remained silent.
"No, even if your soul's essence is restored, your memories will need to recover slowly; they can't be fully restored in such a short time!"
Suddenly, Chen Yi thought of something and asked via telepathy.
result,
Qin Chengcheng smiled broadly:
"Yes, I was just kidding you."
But you didn't deny it, did you?
My memory hasn't fully returned, but I can recall some parts.
Moreover, given the overlap between your divine sense and my divine soul's origins, the evidence is irrefutable. How dare you deny that you stole my first spiritual connection?
"Uh, Fairy Qin, that time was because I was helping you break the restriction on your soul. You had no choice but to use Phoenix Dance in the Nine Heavens to temporarily improve the quality of our souls in order to deal with the unexpected situation."
actually"
"Chen Lang, you don't need to explain so much."
I already know that since my past self chose you, there must have been a reason.
Otherwise, given my personality, if I encounter someone I don't like, I would rather die than engage in dual cultivation with them!
"All right."
Chen Yi didn't explain further; what's done is done, and saying more is pointless.
Regardless, the outcome is good.
As for how his relationship with Qin Chengcheng will develop later, let nature take its course.
He is no longer the insignificant ant he was a few years ago, before he had even reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
He now possesses multiple methods that are sufficient to protect himself against a Core Formation cultivator.
Moreover, they possess a wealth of unused resources, as well as numerous uncultivated techniques and supernatural abilities.
Even after he completed the first level of his Jade Bone Refinement and the Refining of the Inner Veins, he hadn't had time to cultivate some of the accompanying skills and abilities he was going to develop.
In the coming period, he will make significant improvements and progress.
If Qin Chengcheng insists on being with him, he is not incapable of resisting this risk.
Right now is not the time to talk about romantic love between men and women.
At this moment, the three women have now received the most important inheritance of the Thunder Soul Sect, especially after they distributed the last 30% of the spiritual essence of the inherited thunder talisman.
The entire fourth floor of the Inheritance Hall suddenly trembled.
The powerful soul lightning field was rapidly contracting, like a receding tide.
At this moment, Qiu Li and Qin Cheng were both quite weak, and Ning Bu'er's soul was severely injured, making him almost unable to fight.
Only Chen Yi was in good condition.
Qiu Li suddenly sensed an abnormal flow of spiritual energy throughout the Inheritance Hall, and her expression changed drastically:
"Damn it! Thunder spirit energy is being forcibly extracted, and the spatial structure is about to become unstable! Spatial collapse is imminent!"
"Fellow Daoist Xu, you haven't accepted the inheritance and are still maintaining your fighting strength. Please lead us away from the Inheritance Hall!"
Qiu Li's voice was undisguised.
After the entire minefield in the Inheritance Hall was removed, the spatial barrier between the first and fourth floors also disappeared.
Qiu Li and the other three landed on the fourth floor.
When she gave Chen Yi these instructions, the other prodigies overheard her words.
Chen Yi's expression was solemn, and he nodded slightly.
He reached into his storage bag and quickly pulled out a piece of gnarled, lightning-struck wood, which radiated a warm, almost third-tier spiritual light.
He stretched the wooden stick out horizontally and quickly hissed to the three women, "Hold on tight!"
The three women looked helpless. "If you're going to save someone, can't you at least do something with a little class?"
It would be too embarrassing for us to leave with this thing.
Chen Yi was also helpless; he hadn't had time to refine the flying boat that Qiu Li had given him.
Even if he used the Wind and Lightning Release technique, he wouldn't be able to take three people with him at the same time.
In the current crisis environment, only this can quickly bring three people along and maintain a certain level of combat effectiveness and emergency response capability.
Without saying a word, he thrust the rough wooden stick diagonally under the armpits of the three men, lifting them off the ground like three human-shaped rag dolls.
"rise!"
With a low shout, no wind or thunder escape light appeared, but golden light surged around him, and pure physical power erupted like a mountain collapsing!
He stomped hard on the ground with his toes, golden light flashed beneath his feet, and the Golden Steps erupted.
He carried three fairies who were forced to sway in mid-air, and smashed through the spirit bricks and tiles, shooting towards the passage outside the palace at lightning speed!
As Chen Yi and his three companions escaped...
Young Master Ji, the wise young monk Linghui, Zuo Shouqing, and the other prodigies of Qi Kingdom who were still in the Inheritance Hall also used their abilities to escape quickly.
Outside the Hall of Inheritance, the ordinary cultivators who had been surrounding it saw the lightning disappear from the Hall of Inheritance and the terrifying spatial collapse fluctuations emanating from within, and they too scattered and fled.
Just a few feet behind Chen Yijin, who was moving nimbly and nimbly, a loud boom resounded—
A viscous, ink-like, twisted, and terrifying demonic thought suddenly tore through space and erupted from the core of the collapsing Inheritance Hall!
Evil, tyranny, malice, brutality, madness, despair, and other almost tangible negative emotions intertwined and entangled with filthy demonic intent, instantly covering an area of several miles like leaden clouds.
The souls of all living beings in this area felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, invaded and frozen by the chill originating from the deepest abyss.
Ning Bu'er, who was being held horizontally by Chen Yi with a wooden stick, trembled violently. The moment he sensed this terrifying demonic intent, it was as if a dormant nightmare deep within his soul had been instantly activated.
Her pretty face suddenly turned deathly pale, and she bit her lip tightly, urgently calling out to Chen Yi, "This is an ancient demonic thought suppressed by the Thunder Soul Sect! Run!!!"
Without her prompting, in the instant before the demonic thought erupted, the dense golden light emanating from Chen Yi's feet suddenly changed!
The golden light was instantly enveloped in a layer of firefly-like azure wind-like light, and within the light cluster, faint, illusory, transparent golden lotus petals seemed to flash and disappear.
The violent brute force of Jin Xingbu combined with the lightness and speed of Qingfeng Escape, and then blended in a trace of the true meaning of the Buddhist supernatural power "Shrinking Earth", and the three energies exploded in an instant!
His figure suddenly blurred, like a shadow carrying wind and thunder, and shot towards the passage outside the hall. His speed was more than twice as fast as when he used the Golden Step alone!
For the past few months, although Chen Yi appeared to be meditating all day long while in the three-layered lightning field ravaged by lightning tides, he never stopped tempering his self-protection abilities.
Although he couldn't use the Buddhist body technique "Lotus Steps" that he received from the wise young monk Linghui in public, he still possessed it.
However, he relied on his profound understanding of the speed of Wind Release and the power of Metal.
They figured out a way to escape by disguising their "lotus-like steps" as a facade and using the wind escape technique to conceal their rapid bursts of speed.
Chen Yi never slacked off in his research and practice of various escape techniques.
