Chapter 499: Mai Shinomiyai Annihilation Battle 3
Impossible. A dual-core soul core.
It looked transparent, not like a soul core at all, but more like a soul ring. Within the soul core, immeasurable energy was contained.
But even he didn’t dare to easily attack the soul core. The soul core’s defense was terrifying.
Moreover, a layer of invisible domain was arranged around the soul core. Once touched, it would be repelled, making it impossible to get close.
Unless he could instantly unleash power exceeding the soul core’s tolerance, he wouldn’t be able to harm it at all.
He could influence the soul core through the domain, but the soul core’s defense was definitely not something he could affect.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that such a monstrous soul core existed in the world.
Just looking at it felt like being sucked in.
His mental power, though powerful, seemed like an ant in front of the soul core, completely suppressed.
It felt like he was facing a universe, and he was merely a speck of dust within it.
This soul core was too strange.
Moreover, a strange fluctuation emanated from around the soul core.
This fluctuation was like a form of magic, attracting his mental power, wanting to devour him completely.
He quickly restrained his mind, no longer looking at the soul core.
This feeling was too terrifying.
However.
This also strengthened his resolve to completely destroy this soul core’s power.
Within his body, a surge of soul power was surging madly.
He knew.
He had to go all out now, otherwise, he might just capsize in the gutter.
If he were to be devoured by this soul core, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Drink!”
He roared, stamping his foot hard. His figure, like a bolt of lightning, charged towards the soul core.
His fist was clenched tightly, enveloped by a surge of soul power, emitting a terrifying aura.
“Boom!”
His fist smashed heavily onto the domain around the soul core.
But the expected impact sound did not occur.
The domain around the soul core was not broken.
The moment his body touched the domain, he was directly repelled.
He felt as though his arm had smashed into an indestructible steel plate. A tremendous force rebounded from the domain, shaking his arm painfully.
“How is this possible?”
His eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
That was his full-power strike, and even an ordinary soul core would have been shattered by his fist.
But the domain around this soul core remained unmoved, instead repelling him.
The defense of this soul core was simply monstrous!
However.
Although the soul core’s defense was astonishing, he also discovered a problem.
That was.
This soul core seemed to have no ability to counterattack.
It was purely passive defense.
This meant.
As long as he could break through the soul core’s defense, he could destroy it.
Thinking of this.
Hope surged in his heart again.
“I don’t believe this defense of yours can last forever!”
He roared again, his soul power exploding within him, his figure charging towards the soul core once more.
“Heaven Shattering Fist!”
He shouted.
The soul power on his body condensed again, and he unleashed a punch.
“Boom!”
This time.
His fist finally landed on the soul core.
But.
The expected shattering of the soul core did not occur.
The soul core remained intact.
Instead, his body was repelled again by a tremendous force.
“Puff!”
He spat out a mouthful of blood, his face instantly turning pale.
His arm felt as if it were broken, causing him to grimace in pain.
“How could this be?”
His heart was filled with shock and despair.
He was a dignified soul sect expert, possessing unparalleled power, yet facing this soul core, he felt so powerless.
This soul core was simply his nemesis.
At this moment.
He even had the thought of retreating.
But.
He knew.
He had no retreat now.
Once he retreated, he might be devoured by this strange soul core.
“I’ll risk it all!”
He roared again, his soul power erupting once more. This time, he didn’t choose to confront it head-on but opted for a flanking tactic.
His figure turned into an afterimage, circling the soul core, constantly moving, searching for its flaws.
However.
This soul core seemed to have no flaws.
No matter which direction he attacked from, he would be repelled by the domain around the soul core.
Moreover.
Each rebound was so painful to his arm.
He knew.
The domain around the soul core possessed a powerful repulsive force.
As long as he didn’t break this domain, he wouldn’t be able to harm the soul core.
And to break this domain, unless he could instantly unleash power exceeding its tolerance.
This was almost impossible.
This domain seemed endless, and no matter how he attacked, he couldn’t break it.
His heart was filled with despair.
Could it be.
He was really going to die here?
Just as he was losing heart.
Suddenly.
He saw a faint glow flickering on the soul core.
“What is this?”
His heart rejoiced.
Although this glow was faint, he felt a glimmer of hope.
This glow seemed to be the soul core’s power being continuously released.
This meant.
The soul core’s power was not infinite.
As long as he persisted, he could eventually exhaust the soul core’s power.
Thinking of this.
Hope rekindled in his heart.
“Hahahaha!”
He burst into laughter, his voice filled with excitement and joy.
“I understand, although this soul core’s power is immense, it has a fatal weakness.”
He looked at the soul core, his eyes filled with excitement.
“That is, it can only defend passively and cannot attack actively.”
“As long as I can persist and exhaust its power, I can completely destroy it.”
“Come on, let me see how long you, this soul core, can last.”
He roared again, his soul power erupting once more, his figure charging towards the soul core again.
This time, he didn’t choose to confront it head-on but opted for an attrition strategy to deal with the soul core.
His figure darted around the soul core, constantly attacking, constantly being repelled.
Although each rebound caused his arm to ache, he didn’t care.
Because.
He knew.
Every time it rebounded, the soul core’s power would weaken slightly.
Although it was slight, it would add up.
One day, he would be able to break through the soul core’s defense.
Time.
Seconds ticked by.
His soul power was being consumed madly.
But.
The soul core’s power was also constantly weakening.
He knew.
His hope of victory was growing.
“Boom!”
Another punch was thrown. This time, the domain around the soul core finally trembled violently.
“This is it!”
His heart rejoiced.
He threw another punch.
“Boom!”
The domain was finally broken.
His fist finally smashed onto the soul core.
“Crack!”
A crisp sound.
A slight crack finally appeared on the soul core.
His heart rejoiced.
He threw another punch.
“Boom!”
The soul core finally shattered completely.
The shattered soul core turned into specks of light and dissipated into the air.
He looked at the shattered soul core, a triumphant smile on his face.
“Hahahaha, I won!”
He laughed heartily.
But.
Just as he thought it was all over.
Suddenly.
The shattered soul core actually began to condense again.
Moreover.
The soul core that reformed this time was more solid and more powerful than the previous one.
The smile on his face froze instantly.
“How is this possible?”
His eyes widened, his eyes filled with disbelief.
A shattered soul core could actually reform!
This utterly subverted his understanding.
He suddenly remembered.
This soul core was a dual-core.
Although he had broken one soul core, the other one was completely unharmed.
Moreover.
He discovered.
The shattered soul core was actually absorbed by the other soul core.
This meant.
His hard work was all in vain, benefiting someone else.
“Damn it!”
He roared, his face filled with unwillingness.
His soul power had been mostly depleted, and now, facing a more powerful soul core, he had no chance of winning.
He knew.
He had lost.
Lost completely.
In front of this soul core, he had no chance whatsoever.
His heart was filled with despair.
He knew.
He was finished.
Being devoured by this soul core was only a matter of time.
“I’m not reconciled!”
He roared, his soul power erupting again. He wanted to fight to the death.
But.
He knew.
This was futile.
Everything about him was within the soul core’s grasp.
“Buzz.”
The soul core trembled again.
This time.
The domain around the soul core condensed once more, and it was even more powerful and solid than before.
He knew.
This was the soul core evolving again after absorbing the shattered soul core.
He knew.
He had no chance anymore.
His heart was filled with despair.
He closed his eyes, waiting for death to arrive.
But.
After waiting for a long time.
Death did not arrive.
He opened his eyes and found.
The soul core was suspended in the air, motionless.
Moreover.
The domain around the soul core had disappeared.
“This?”
His heart was filled with confusion.
Had the soul core spared him?
–
He felt.
There seemed to be a mysterious power within the soul core calling to him.
His heart was filled with curiosity.
He slowly approached the soul core.
The moment he got close to the soul core.
A beam of light shot out from within the soul core, directly entering his mind.
“Boom!”
It was as if a thunderous roar erupted in his mind.
Subsequently.
A vast amount of information flooded into his mind.
This information was all about the soul core.
He was shocked to discover.
This soul core was actually the legendary “Soul Devouring Core.”
The Soul Devouring Core was a type of soul core that could devour all soul power.
Moreover.
The Soul Devouring Core could continuously evolve.
This was why.
The soul core he had shattered earlier was absorbed by the other soul core.
Because.
The shattered soul core was a part of the Soul Devouring Core.
After being absorbed by the Soul Devouring Core, it would re-condense and evolve again.
He was shocked to discover.
This Soul Devouring Core actually possessed self-awareness.
Moreover.
The Soul Devouring Core actually wanted to recognize him as its master.
“This…”
His heart was filled with disbelief.
This Soul Devouring Core could devour even soul sect experts, yet it wanted to recognize him as its master.
This was like pie falling from the sky.
He knew.
Once he possessed the Soul Devouring Core.
He would become the most powerful soul master in the world.
Thinking of this.
His heart was filled with excitement.
Without hesitation, he accepted the Soul Devouring Core’s recognition of his mastery.
“Boom!”
The Soul Devouring Core flew directly into his body and merged with his dual cores.
The moment the Soul Devouring Core merged into his body.
His soul core actually evolved again.
His soul power surged madly.
His body was constantly being strengthened.
He felt.
He now possessed boundless power.
He knew.
He had succeeded.
He now possessed the most powerful soul core in the world.
–
Three days later.
He woke up from his slumber.
He opened his eyes.
His eyes were filled with a sharp glint.
He felt the immense soul power within his body, a confident smile appearing on his face.
He knew.
Now.
He was no longer the weakling he once was.
He now possessed the strength to contend with soul sect experts.
Even.
He could defeat mid-stage soul sect experts.
He stood up and stretched lazily.
“It’s time to leave here.”
He muttered to himself.
He knew.
He couldn’t stay here too long.
This place was too dangerous.
If he were discovered by a soul sect expert, his life would be in danger.
He walked out of the cave and looked up at the sky.
The sunlight shone on his body, warm and comfortable.
He felt.
He now possessed infinite hope.
He knew.
His future.
Would be filled with brightness.
He took a deep breath and stepped forward.
The moment he walked out of the cave.
He glanced back at the cave.
Inside the cave.
Only.
The shattered soul core, turned into specks of light, flickered ceaselessly in the air.
He knew.
That was.
The other soul core silently guarding him.
He knew.
Beside him.
There would always be.
Someone who loved him and protected him.
His heart was filled with emotion.
He knew.
He would not betray this love.
He would strive to become stronger.
