For thousands of years, the Shatter Battlefield had been an important battlefield for the Mortal World and Spirit World.
In earlier eras, the Ancientspirits of the Spirit World had fought against the Phantasms and Demons in it as well.
Powerful creatures would have fragments of their souls left behind after their deaths. Thanks to the unique features of the Shatter Battlefield, they would experience new changes instead of completely dissipating.
For example, when ninth-grade Phantasm grand patriarchs died, their fragmentary souls could remain imperishable in certain bleak places on the Shatter Battlefield.
The imperishable fragmentary souls could even quietly absorb other fragmentary souls for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years in those kinds of unusual places.
Of course, when the fragmentary souls existed in such a form, they weren’t the original souls anymore.
Such ferocious souls and evil spirits could not only be found in the Shatter Battlefield, but in some unusual lands of the Mortal World and Spirit World as well.
Most of them had no intelligence. Few of them had a confused intelligence, so they could only lurk in the dark, preying on weak creatures and swallowing their spirits to strengthen themselves by relying on their most basic instincts.
Rumor had it that as they grew up, such souls would become stronger and stronger, and one day they would be able to recover their lost intelligence and memories and walk the worlds as their true selves again.
SWOOs.h.!.+ SWOOs.h.!.+
The ferocious souls and evil spirits with sharp thorns and b.l.o.o.d.y long tongues shrieked and resisted in despair with threatening gestures.
However, under the power of the Spirit Scepter, their ethereal illusory soul bodies were forced to leave the places where they had hidden.
“Great Soul-conjuring Spell!” Nie Tian exclaimed softly, and the sounds of rus.h.i.+ng water came from all the Nether Rivers engraved on the Spirit Scepter.
At the same time, a beam of cyan light blasted wildly from the top of his head, and shot straight up into the Profound Truths Crystal in the scepter.
The cyan ward that the Spirit Scepter had released burst forth with dense uncanny soul characters, runes, imprints, and interwoven soul strands that were like twinkling bright stars.
At this moment, Nie Tian’s eyes were filled with brilliant, cyan divine light.
No matter how hard the ferocious souls and evil spirits struggled, they were all bound by the bright ward the Spirit Scepter had released, before they were quickly refined, giving rise to fizzing sounds.
When the souls and spirits dissipated, strands of extremely pure soul power were condensed.
SWIs.h.!.+
Under Nie Tian’s guidance, the strands of gossamer-like soul power fell into Mo Heng like wisps of lightning.
Mo Heng shuddered, and his dim eyes instantly lit up.
As soon as the first strand of soul power slipped into his sea of soul awareness, he felt very comfortable, like a dry well that was being filled with fresh water. He realized at once that the soul strands could help him regain his soul power rapidly.
Hence, he closed his eyes and sat down on the spot to calmly accept Nie Tian’s help.
As more refined soul strands flew into Mo Heng’s sea of soul awareness, the exhaustion on his face gradually disappeared.
“Great Soul-conjuring Spell!” Feng Beiluo of the Heavenly Corpse Sect screamed before he took a deep breath and fixed his eyes on Nie Tian. “This kind of soul magic is a secret spell even among the Netherspirits and Phantasms! As far as I know, many Netherspirit and Phantasm grand patriarchs and even grand monarchs are unable to comprehend the Great Soul-conjuring Spell!”
“Great Soul-conjuring Spell! The legendary Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit’s wonderful soul magic!” Yuan Jiuchuan exclaimed softly.
After joining that powerful force as Feng Beiluo’s subordinate, Yuan Jiuchuan’s areas of activity had no longer been confined to the Mortal World over the years. He had fought some battles with the experts of the Void World in the Doomed Star Sea.
He had suppressed many of his Netherspirit peers because he cultivated lightning power, and had gradually become a main force in the battles against the Netherspirits.
Therefore, he had learned about many secrets of the Netherspirits in the Void World, the existence of Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit, and the rare, powerful soul magics that he had created.
The Great Soul-conjuring Spell was a well-known, terrifying soul magic that he had left behind!
WHOOs.h.!.+ WHOOs.h.!.+
Under the power of the Great Soul-conjuring Spell, the illusory soul shadows of the Saint domain experts that had come with Feng Beiluo and Yuan Jiuchuan and had been so easily killed by Grand Monarch Soul Devourer seemed to gather slowly.
Their souls had been broken by Grand Monarch Soul Devourer and condensed into cl.u.s.ters of soul power, which he had then unleashed on Nie Tian in the form of a soul seal.
They were dead and completely gone.
But unexpectedly, because of the Great Soul-conjuring Spell, some of their remaining soul power was now gathering.
FIZZ! FIZZ!
Even their fragmentary souls were purified by the power of the Spirit Scepter, and then fused into Mo Heng’s sea of soul awareness to help him recover quickly.
“Sorry...” Feng Beiluo murmured, but his expression wasn’t apologetic at all, as if those people’s deaths had nothing to do with him.
He continued to channel powerful flesh auras from the Doomed Star Sea down into the earth to help the Chaos Behemoth revive itself.
Moments later, no more ferocious souls or evil spirits emerged in the surrounding area of tens of thousands of miles, and the cyan bright light that the Spirit Scepter had released gradually dimmed.
Nie Tian, who now looked tired, heaved a long sigh of relief and put away the Spirit Scepter.
Feng Beiluo came forward, his eyes filled with the light of antic.i.p.ation. “Young Master... Mo Heng’s soul power has recovered very quickly, and he has regained his middle G.o.d domain cultivation base. If you could continue, he should be able to break through to the late G.o.d domain in a short time! Given his fighting power, he’d be a great help if he can reach the late G.o.d domain!”
Seeing through his thoughts, Nie Tian thought for a moment, then said, “Casting the Great Soul-conjuring Spell was too exhausting. I need time to recover. Why don’t you continue to help the Chaos Behemoth revive? I’ll go to the floating continent and help the Ancientspirits and Floragrims migrate their young and weak into the Silent Star Sea first.”
Feng Beiluo nodded and said, “Sure. Umm, it won’t be long before your mother...”
Nie Tian’s eyes instantly lit up. “Where is she?”
Feng Beiluo seemed to feel deep veneration as he said. “The Doomed Star Sea. She may need your help, too.”
Nie Tian was worried. “She’s hurt too?”
When Dong Li had obtained the Dark Aureole at the Seven Stars Realm Sea, he had learned that the person who Feng Beiluo had served should be his mother, Nie Jin.
His grandfather and aunt had also said that they had often dreamed about his mother.
Now, he, who had also seen some signs through his master Wu Ji’s time power, was completely sure that she was still alive.
Feng Beiluo pondered for a while, then said, “Why don’t you go to the Doomed Star Sea after the disaster in the Mortal World is solved? It’s very difficult to mobilize many experts from the Doomed Star Sea because we’re facing trouble there as well. The main reason is that many late G.o.d domain experts and top grand monarchs of the Ancientspirits are trapped in some forbidden place in the Void World.
“Why are they trapped?” Nie Tian asked.
Feng Beiluo’s mouth glinted with sarcasm. “Why else? They have always wanted to transcend and see the best scenery like the three paragons of the Void World. But how can it be easy to transcend the G.o.d domain? In the end, they were all trapped in a forbidden place in the Void World, and we have no idea if they’re still alive, which is why we have been so pa.s.sive.”
“I’ll go to the floating continent first!” Nie Tian said.
Knowing that his mother was injured, he was very eager to finish with all the troubles in a short time.
He held the bone of the Rampage Behemoth and communicated with the Ripper Behemoth in the floating continent through it. “Take me back!”
BOOM!
All of a sudden, the area of s.p.a.ce above his head collapsed, forming a pa.s.sage full of surging energies.
He flew in like a flash.
