Martial Research Master

338 DEALING WITH THE EVIL SOUL-“Can you control the formation properly?”

“I should be able to. I will be absorbing every single ounce of energy which is drained by the formation and whatever is stored within it. So by the end, you should have a great pool of Hell energy within the Crimson Lord world. The next problem is devouring the evil soul. If you could do that, we might have achieved the objective we came here with.”

“It might even help you increase the quality of your soul. When I say quality, I don’t mean the stage of soul cultivation. I mean how abundant and dense your soul is. For comparison, by the difference of a single stage of quality, your power difference will be equivalent to half a realm in soul cultivation. I hope you understand the reason for my excitement.”

“The evil soul, although a notorious and devastating creature, is a valuable resource for soul cultivation. It all depends on you.”

“How should I take care of it?”

“The best way to tackle this situation is to use thunder element energy and your most powerful art, like Dominator’s fist. Also, use the full extent of your body cultivation holding back nothing. It might be the reason for your demise if you decide to hold back. During the fight, if you can, try to absorb the energy within the seal. It will be helpful for your cultivation and also enhance your power.”

“Let us get ahead with it then.”

.................................

Li Meng finally prepared to enter the altar where the evil soul was sealed. The altar and seal began to channel their power into Li Meng’s body, and he could feel his strength growing. Soon enough he had already reached a PowerPoint which he had never experienced before. He felt that the guardian of Pill valley and his master in Thunder academy were ants before him.”

.....

The problem though was that he could feel a heavy burden both on his body and his soul space. Which means that he wouldn’t be able to maintain this form for a very long time.

“Open the channel fast. I need to end the fight fast.”

The tree and the altar knew that his claims were correct. They couldn’t keep siphoning energy to him for a long time either, and his body would break down before they were even done. The tree began to control the formation with the Keeper supporting it, as it pours its power into the altar.

“You will be supported by the altar bombarding energy onto the evil soul. You need to attack it all at the same time.” Li Meng nodded.

A passage appeared and Li Meng began descending into the altar. Soon enough he came across a dome that looked like a fortified hemisphere of energy. All he could see inside was blackness. His heart began to palpitate, but he held his breath and asked the altar to transfer him inside. The altar wished him the best of luck and sent him inside.

...............................

Li Meng felt like he had been thrown into pure darkness. He decided to examine the surroundings and began to utilize his hell energy to create a pathway. As soon as he used it, the energy outside began to coagulate into him, increasing his power substantially. The heaviness he had felt until then vanished almost instantly.

He felt more and more powerful as time passed by. He felt like his body had been drugged, but the feeling almost instantly as if being canceled by something. After examining the surroundings and heading deeper into the darkness, Li Meng finally came across what looks like a human figure.

He decided to stop at a small distance away from the figure and began inspecting it. He felt like the human figure although looked substantial was not the true body of the evil soul. To his surprise, the form was that of a woman. The evil soul must have manifested its energy to take this form.

Just as he was about to step out., he saw another figure of what looked like a guy, then another man, a child. Soon enough almost ten figures came into view, all of them sitting with their heads down.

“These must have been the guys who tried to eliminate it before.” Li Meng guessed.

“You must be the new guy that two bastards chose to take care of me.” A voice sounded coming from all ten figures at once. The ten figures looked up to see li meng, their eyes morphing into a bright red shine.

Li meng felt a powerful jolt in his soul space but was able to regain his composure.

“You managed to cancel my soul attack so easily. How could that be possible? Even if you are a soul cultivator you must at most be at a grandmaster level. How did you fend off my attack.”

“I had a fortunate encounter in the cave earlier which resulted in my soul quality being upgraded.”

“I guess that old bastard left a support resource for his successor, but even that wouldn’t be able to help you avoid an attack like mine. The only explanation is that your origin is similar to mine. But the two guys above wouldn’t choose someone from hell to help them out. So who are you?” The evil soul looked as if talking to himself. He was slowly losing control.

He then looked at Li meng and his eyes had changed once again. This time they had a shine of blue. Once the shine faded completely, the evil soul had a smile on his face.

“You are a successor to one of the suzerian of hell. Just how did you fool the people here to help you.”

What do you mean by the successor to a suzerain of hell?” Li Meng began to question the evil soul. He had a lot of questions regarding the art she was practicing. Maybe this evil soul could solve his doubts.

“This is absurd. You don’t know the source of the art you are practicing. What is even more absurd is that you’re a human in the core, yet your body had been forged with the power of hell, multiple times at that.”

“Answer my question.” Li Meng said in an irritated voice.

“The art you are practicing is called Hell-Forge sutra. The core part of one of the top twelve hell plains. The art can only be practiced by someone of the Hell Suzerian dynasty. Why do you have it?” The evil soul was questioning the situation too.

“We can solve the mystery later. Why don’t you help me get out of here and I help you understand your art properly and progress greatly in your arts?” The Evil soul proposed.

“I have something else in mind. How about I kill you and absorb your energy to advance in my cultivation.” The evil soul began laughing when he heard this.
