Chapter 468 Ch 468: Arrival Of The Inferno Thunderbird
The Red Particles inside Ling Xiaolong's soul were very unique and possessed the characteristics to corrupt the soul. They were unlike anything Ling Xiaolong had ever encountered before.
He attempted to suppress the Red Particles with his powerful Soul Force, only to fail. His soul force was devoured by those damnable particles in an instant.
Since the Soul Force proved ineffective, he tried to suppress them with his raw strength and Origin Energy but still failed. In the end, he even mobilized the Supreme Rules, but for some reason, even they did not work.
Ling Xiaolong simply couldn't understand why nothing was effective against the Red Particles.
Abyss Emperor, having finished speaking about Spiritarium, moved his index finger, and all the Red Particles scattered throughout the void started gathering on his fingertip, gradually taking on a certain shape. In the blink of an eye, they coalesced into the form of a red python.
It was a living Red Python, manifested from the Red Particles. Its presence caused Ling Xiaolong's soul to tremble.
"Now, let me explain the frightening characteristics of the Soul Abyss."
Abyss Emperor played with the Red Python as he continued, "The Soul Abyss not only possesses the characteristics of my Soul Force, which you could call Dark Soul Force because, unlike other Abyssals, my soul has evolved and broken free from the constraints of the Abyss. To sever the ties binding me to the Abyss, I had to fuse my Soul with my physical body, which resulted in the evolution and transformation of my soul into Dark Soul."
"In addition to my Soul Force, the Soul Abyss also embodies the characteristics of Abyssal Energy, Cursed Abyssal Energy, and Miasmic Veil, which contribute to the manifestation of the Soul Abyss as red particles."
Ling Xiaolong's eyes immediately lit up the moment he heard about the characteristics of the Soul Abyss. He immediately found a way to remove the Red Particles corrupting his soul.
'The answer was right in front of me, I was just unable to see it!'
Ling Xiaolong could not help but sigh and shake his head.
In order to be one hundred percent sure, he asked, "Abyssal Energy and Cursed Abyssal Energy?"
He had no idea what Cursed Abyssal Energy was, but from its name, he could at least infer that it was another form of Abyssal Energy.
Abyss Emperor nodded, "You must be wondering why I'm explaining everything to you so easily, right?"
Ling Xiaolong softly nodded, indicating for Abyss Emperor to continue. He had already devised a plan to remove the Red Particles, but to execute it successfully, he needed Abyss Emperor's attention diverted elsewhere.
"Hahaha!" Abyss Emperor laughed loudly, clearly satisfied with Ling Xiaolong's response. He then answered, "It's because there's no way you're leaving here alive. Your fate is sealed; you will surely die. And then, I'll devour you. Since your death is inevitable, why should I worry about the secret of my Soul Abyss spreading?"
"A logical move, indeed!" Ling Xiaolong displayed a pained expression on his face and muttered.
Abyss Emperor was even more satisfied after hearing his words.
"Ummm... Your soul is much stronger than what I had expected. It is taking too much time. you go and finish the job!"
Abyss Emperor looked at the Red Python who nodded its little head and immediately flew inside Ling Xiaolong's body.
Ling Xiaolong did not try to resist. Now that he found out the way to get rid of the red particles, there was no need to worry. In fact, he wanted Abyss Emperor to pour more and more red particles inside his body.
Time continued to pass.
One minute.
Five minutes.
Ten minutes.
An hour!
Finally, after an hour, Abyss Emperor could no longer contain his puzzlement. He wondered why Ling Xiaolong's soul had not been corrupted, despite sending the red python inside his body.
Unbeknownst to Abyss Emperor, Ling Xiaolong had already eliminated every trace of Soul Abyss from his body and soul.
The fact that it took over an hour to achieve this underscores just how terrifying Soul Abyss truly was.
"Umm?"
Suddenly, Abyss Emperor seemed to have felt something. His figure flashed and appeared thousands of meters away from where he was standing. It was also at this moment, that a fountain of white flame exploded in the sky like a pillar of light and expanded crazily.
This is?
Abyss Emperor had a very subtle sensation, but he could tell that something was extremely wrong.
"Your reaction speed is not bad!"
A few seconds later, when the pillar of white flame disappeared, Ling Xiaolong's figure was revealed. He was playing with a ball of white flame and was looking at Abyss Emperor mockingly.
"It is impossible. How did you do it?" Abyss Emperor could not help but ask. He wanted to know how Ling Xiaolong got rid of his Soul Abyss.
"Eh, looks like I was not the only one. This minor detail escaped even your mind." A light flashed in Ling Xiaolong's golden pupil which quickly subsided. The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.
"What minor detail?" Abyss Emperor was curious.
Ling Xiaolong raised his hand, revealing the ball of white flame to the Abyss Emperor. Now, it was his turn to explain, "My Chaos Essence Flame is quite unique. It possesses many special qualities, but one of its most remarkable characteristics is its devouring ability. Unfortunately, it only consumes what it deems exceptionally beneficial for its own growth. Abyssal Energy happened to fall into this category."
"Since your Soul Abyss possesses the characteristics of Abyssal Energy and Cursed Abyssal Energy, my Chaos Essence Flame was able to extract and devour them. What remained were only your Soul Force and the so-called Miasmic Veil. The Miasmic Veil was inconsequential, it merely provided the Soul Abyss with its particle-like shape and poisonous attribute. I am immune to all sorts of poison, there is no need to say much about it. As for your Soul Force, I refined it. Now, your Soul Force has become a part of my Soul."
"Getting rid of your Soul Abyss wasn't that difficult, was it?"
Ling Xiaolong smiled brilliantly as he spoke, but in the Abyss Emperor's eyes, his smile was like a thousand sharp needles that directly pierced into his heart.
He made a mistake, a very big mistake indeed.
Previously, when Ling Xiaolong was fighting and killing Abyssals in the Land of Abyss, he was watching his every action. He clearly saw how Chaos Essence Flame devoured Abyssals and Abyssal Energy. It was ferocious enough to even devour the Land of Abyss itself.
How could he miss such a small detail?
At least one fact brought him a moment of relief: it wasn't just him who had forgotten about the Chaos Essence Flame; even Ling Xiaolong, its owner, had overlooked it for some time. It was only when Abyss Emperor mentioned Abyssal Energy and Cursed Abyssal Energy that the idea sparked in his mind.
Regardless, it was nothing much. Even if Ling Xiaolong managed to rid himself of the Soul Abyss, the Abyss Emperor had many ways to eliminate him.
"Your flame is useless against me. It is too weak to devour me!" Abyss Emperor pointed at Chaos Essence Flame and sneered.
"I know that which is why I won't be fighting you with my flame!"
Ling Xiaolong kept the flame back in his Chaos. The KING Martial Spirit behind him took a stance, once again ready to strike.
However, this time, the Spear Martial Spirit was not in its hands.
Ling Xiaolong thought of something and once again revealed the Eternal Fury Divine Spear Martial Spirit, letting the KING Martial Spirit grab it.
"Kekeke!"
Abyss Emperor laughed evilly. He said, "This attack did not work on me previously. Do you really think it will work this time?"
"I am well aware!" Ling Xiaolong shook his head. He knew what he was doing. He said, "But who told you that this attack is the same as the previous one?"
As he spoke, the reflection of Chaos flashed with a brilliant light.
"Roar!"
A deep roar, seeming coming from beyond of the void of darkness, echoed everywhere. Silent ripples yet strong enough to destroy hundreds of Lands immediately extended in every direction.
Rumble!
Very soon, the Reflection of Chaos flashed with thunder and lightning. It also seemed to have been set on fire.
Slowly, a huge creature emerged out of the Reflection of Chaos. It was the Inferno Thunderbird.
This creature used to be his Martial Spirit.
Inferno Thunderbird is the first creature to be born when his Chaos was still nothing but a small Souce Universe.
Later, along with the evolution of his Chaos, Inferno Thunderbird also continued to evolve. It never needed to cultivate to become strong.
Now, with the birth of 36 Supreme Rules of Chaos, the Inferno Thunderbird's strength was even stronger than several Level 36 Masters of Chaos.
With the Inferno Thunderbird here, Ling Xiaolong got a strong helper to fight the Abyss Emperor.
