Chapter 602: Wanting to See Clearly If That Light Was Huo

As Shen Yaowei stepped out of the spatial wormhole first, a terrifying and sinister aura surged over.
The strange aura was terrifying. Heavy dark clouds covered the sky like ink and pressed down heavily. An invisible pressure enveloped his shoulder, bringing with it invisible pressure.
“Compared to the last time, the murderous aura in the Ghost Annihilation Abyss seems to be even stronger,” Shen Yaowei said slowly as she sensed the aura drifting around.
“In the past, the two divine weapons were intermediate in the Ghost Annihilation Abyss and could suppress the murderous aura here to a certain extent. Now that the divine weapons have disappeared, the murderous aura in the Ghost Annihilation Abyss is no longer suppressed. It will become more and more intense as time pa.s.ses.” Yue Hu looked around and asked Shen Yaowei, “Which direction do you want to go first?”
“Northwest. That’s where I was forced to separate from Junhan back then.” Just mentioning Huo J unhan’s name made Shen Yaowei’s eyes light up with longing.
After so long, she had finally returned.
Today, no matter what, she had to find Junhan!
Yue Hu and Yan Bei didn’t say anything. The two of them exchanged looks and didn’t stop Shen Yaowei in the end. Instead, they silently followed Shen Yaowei.
Along the way, Shen Yaowei finally arrived at the abyss of the battle.
When they arrived at a familiar place, Shen Yaowei looked forward, her eyes filled with shock.
If it weren’t for the fact that the aura of the two divine weapons was still lingering here, she would even think for a moment that she had come to the wrong place.
At this moment, it had already changed a lot compared to the first time they came. The originally uneven ground had long been razed to the ground. The height of the ground had collapsed by half a meter, and the ground was covered in a thick layer of stone powder.
The surrounding walls were filled with traces of battle. It was obvious that the aftermath of the battle had caused irreversible changes here.
After a few months, she could even sense a trace of the aura of Jun Mohan and Dugu Aoyun here.
The aura that filled the surroundings made Shen Yaowei feel more hopeful. “Junhan’s aura is still here. He must be nearby.”
Yue Hu couldn’t bear to dampen Shen Yaowei’s spirit, so she could only remind her in a roundabout manner, “Mistress, back then, in order to close all the spatial connections between the human and ghost races, Master spent a lot of strength. In this situation, it’s very normal for the aura to remain for a few months, or even a few years or decades. We’re not looking for Master’s aura this time, but Master’s remnant soul.”
Initially, Yue Hu wanted to say that finding Master’s remains was the same as finding a remnant soul. There was a high chance of reviving her Master.
However, when she looked around and realized that the rocks on the ground had been shattered into powder, she knew very well that no matter how strong her body was, it couldn’t be harder than rocks. She stopped talking.
“Even if there’s a little hope, I won’t give up. All of you, move aside. I want to use the Soul Summoning Technique to find Junhan’s soul.” Shen Yaowei’s tone was solemn. After taking a deep breath, she stood on the spot and took out cinnabar, gold foil, and a wolf hair pen from her pocket. She mixed her blood with the cinnabar and gold foil.
Shen Yaowei’s blood was mixed with spiritual power that was difficult to ignore. She dipped the wolf hair pen and drew a perfect Soul Summoning Array Formation on the ground.
Yan Bei’s face was pale, and his throat was stiff. He spat out a sentence with difficulty. “From the moment I came here just now, I’ve been trying to find His Highness’s aura, but I found nothing…”
“Me too.” Yue Hu sighed. “The bloodline in Master’s body can allow us ghost race to acutely sense his existence. Unless Master deliberately hides himself, it’s impossible for me not to sense it at all. But you should also know that when a soul is too weak, it doesn’t hide its strength.”
Yan Bei pursed his thin lips tightly, and a storm surged in his heart.
Even if the king was alive, he could at most maintain a remnant soul state. It was very likely that he had lost all his strength or even consciousness. It was impossible for him to hide his strength.
Therefore, the chances of the king still surviving could be said to be extremely small.
Yan Bei’s heart was like a mirror, but he didn’t dare say it. The complicated feelings in his heart were indescribable. He could only look at Shen Yaowei along with Yue Hu.
Shen Yaowei focused. After constructing the most perfect Soul Summoning Array Formation, she took out a Three Sun Bone, copper coin, iron bell, and red rope and tied them all together.
Then, she stood in the middle of the array formation and held her breath. Huo Junhan’s figure appeared in her mind.
A strong longing was instilled into the red rope with spiritual power. The copper coin and iron bell quickly swayed, emitting a clear sound.
The Soul Summoning Array Formation under her feet emitted a dazzling strong light. Shen Yaowei quickly searched the aura around her, but she couldn’t find any aura related to Huo Junhan.
Her Soul Summoning Technique was like a small stone thrown into the sea. The waves raised were too weak, and it didn’t attract any response.
However, she was indignant. She took a breath and sent her spiritual power further into the array formation.
The array formation almost couldn’t withstand this power. The strong light shone, and the surrounding air let out a sorrowful cry.
Yue Hu and Yan Bei were shocked. Yue Hu wanted to go forward, but she was instantly bounced away from the spot by the spiritual power spreading around the array formation. “Mistress, you can’t spend so much strength! The Soul Summoning Array is unstable. At this rate, if you can’t summon Master’s soul, you’ll suffer a backlash!”
Shen Yaowei didn’t seem to hear Yue Hu’s warning. Her strength was like a surging tide that hit the array formation.
She didn’t even care if the array formation could withstand her power and further expanded the range of the soul summoning. Even when she saw the Three Sun Bone on the red rope shatter because it couldn’t withstand the power, she didn’t stop.
Yue Hu and Yan Bei’s advice was thrown to the back of her mind. She didn’t listen, let alone believe it.
She didn’t believe that Junhan had disappeared without a trace in this world. She didn’t believe that Junhan would never return. She believed that she still had a chance to save him from the abyss.
Junhan, Junhan, Huo Junhan!
After chanting Huo Junhan’s name crazily in her heart, Shen Yaowei stuffed all the spiritual power in her body into the array formation.
Crack, crack.
The shining array under its feet couldn’t withstand such huge power, and cracks appeared on its surface.
The red rope broke, the Three Sun Bone, the copper coin, and the iron bell were shattered by spiritual power at the same time, splattering everywhere.
The backlash attacked, and Shen Yaowei’s eyes instantly turned red, almost bleeding.
But even if she gritted her teeth and felt intense pain all over her body from the backlash, she didn’t stop!
This kind of pain was nothing compared to the pain of losing Junhan!
“Your Highness, stop!”
Yan Bei’s worried cry sounded in her ears. Shen Yaowei’s entire body stiffened, and she couldn’t move. It was as if the blood in her body was flowing backward, making her eyes darken.
Her consciousness was on the verge of disappearing. Before she fainted, she saw a bright light summoned from the array formation.
Wanting to see clearly if the light was really Huo Junhan, Shen Yaowei stretched out her hand with difficulty. Only then did she see that the skin on her arm had cracked from the backlash, and blood flowed all over her body. She actually seemed to have been born from blood.
The intense pain hit her brain and she was unable to resist. In the end, before she could see the light clearly, she closed her eyes and lost consciousness..
