Spirit Realm - Chapter 1828

Chapter 1828: The Terrifying Nature of Dead Souls!
For the first time, Qin Lie realized the terrifying nature of the power of dead souls!

After being forced into a corner by the Saint God and over thirty returnees, changing the core law of his power to dead souls reversed the situation immediately!!

Soon after that, the returnees’ soul seas were infected by the dead souls’ presence.

He could feel that despite the experts’ anger, their soul energy was gradually under his control.

The power of dead souls was even more terrifying than the Thunder Emperor’s Heavenly Thunder Eradication that could annihilate all souls!

The thunder and lightning power could only kill souls.

Once the power of dead souls permeated deep into an expert’s soul sea, it could turn the expert’s soul into a dead soul!

Such soul could be used by those skilled in the power of dead souls!

Qin Lie probed Farid’s soul sea and noticed that all the crystals above became gray could be used as a source of power.

“Break!”

His thoughts shifted and the spatial barrier that Farid had created was smashed by the countless gray crystals that continued to hurl towards Farid’s soul origin like millions of meteors.

“Go!”

He could clearly see that Farid’s soul origin that had manifested in the soul sea was being corroded by the power of dead souls.

Farid, under Qin Lie’s gaze, turned from a blue soul into a gray dead soul.

The peak expert of the Spirit Race had been forcefully converted by the power of dead souls!

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Countless gray crystals pierced Farid’s soul origin and caused his transformation to speed up.

Not long after, all of Farid’s memories were replaced by the aura of death.

In this moment, he had a wondrous feeling—Farid had become his soul slave.

A soul slave from a dead soul!

Fortunately, like the many phantoms and wraiths that Castor could release, Qin Lie could now summon the dead soul of Farid.

He was completely under Qin Lie’s control!

Farid’s soul consciousness was completely conquered by the power of dead souls in just a few moments!

Farid and the other returnees stopped shouting.

As Farid was converted into a dead soul, similar scenes happened in the soul seas of other peak experts.

Over thirty peak rank ten experts quickly became Qin Lie’s soul slaves—dead souls under exclusive control of Qin Lie!

Their soul seas became Qin Lie’s home ground, allowing him to feel the most minute of changes.

With this, he immediately located the Saint God’s imprints.

“You sure are vicious!”

Thamur, formed by the Saint God, found the astonishing change in the soul seas of the returnees and was stunned.

“You are as ruthless as expected! You’ve killed all the strongest experts of your universe with your own power!”

“You used an evil secret art to stop them from reaching the ultimate realm and destroyed them!”

“With your own power, you killed all the experts and made them into your soul puppets. You are vicious and ruthless!”

Thamur murmured. His soul imprints did not wait for Qin Lie to act as they left minds of the returnees.

He knew once Qin Lie made his decision and used Castor’s extremely vile power of dead souls to kill the returnees and turn them into soul puppets that his grand plan had failed.

Instead, those returnees have become Qin Lie’s soul puppets, under his absolute control.

He no longer was the strongest existence in the returnees’ soul consciousness.

If this continued, Qin Lie could use the returnees that had turned into dead souls to attack him.

He could only leave the minds of the returnees before Qin Lie capitalized on that opportunity.

“You forced my hand.”

Qin Lie heaved a sigh filled with grief.

They were the peak experts of this universe but had been bewitched by the leader of another universe and returned to attack him, the true protector of their universe.

Their end could only be described as tragic.

He was forced to use the power he hated the most to gain victory.

In the previous era, in his previous self’s eyes, Castor’s actions were condemnable

He had looked down on Castor’s power of dead souls and thought that such vile and extreme power had no place in the universe.

Because such power, when cultivated to the apex, would eventually turn every living being into Castor’s dead soul.

And yet, he now used this very same power to turn the strongest experts of his universe into dead souls.

It wasn’t any different from what Castor had been doing.

Over thirty of peak experts who once had a chance to enter the ultimate realm all died under his power of dead souls, turning into his puppets.

Despite having won his first battle against the Saint God, he wasn’t happy.

“In the next battle, I will come with my true body!”

The soul thought of the Saint God came as he left the minds of the returnees.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

The vicious dead souls, mixed with Qin Lie’s subsouls, flew out of the bodies of the returnees.

Those dead souls all flew into Flaming Sun Purgatory and disappeared from their respective realms.

After the dead souls left, the returnees that Qin Lie had invaded became deathly silent.

Their plan of attempting to reach the ultimate realm as fast as possible was stopped by Qin Lie.

“Honorable Hood!”

In the Bone World, the members of the Eisenberg Family cried in pain as they knelt beside the bone pool.

With their cultivation, they could not feel Qin Lie taking Hood’s dead soul into Flaming Sun Purgatory.

They only knew that the Honorable Hood that had been just fine a moment earlier was engulfed in aura of death, and then his soul stopped releasing any ripples.

They all thought that an accident happened, causing Hood to be unable to take that final step.

“Lord Farid!”

“Lord Farid is dead!”

“He failed!”

In the memorial hall of the Satorius Family of the Spirit Race, many of the Spirit Race clansmen gathered here wailed in grief.

They all felt the absence of Farid’s presence in the memorial hall.

“Whoosh!”

The Profound Heaven Spirit Orb of the Spirit Race flew out of the hall and landed in the hand of Indigo who had returned from Sky Bearing City.

Indigo looked at the grieving Spirit Race old people and softly said, “A breakthrough to the ultimate realm is not so easy. Lord Farid… failed. Please give him a proper burial. He will always be the pride of our race and our forerunner.”

Then, she shot Assad a look and left with some of the Spirit Race clansmen.

Only they knew what had happened in Farid’s soul sea when he tried reaching the ultimate realm.

Dragon Realm.

Abrit’s dead soul was taken into Flaming Sun Purgatory by Qin Lie, but his Dark Soul Beast subsoul did not leave.

His subsoul came out of Abrit’s head and floated in the form of the Soul Tree as he looked at Barett and his brothers.

He spoke with guilt permeating every syllable. “I’m sorry. I failed…”

Barett’s eyes were filled with anger.

“However, Senior Abrit is not completely dead. I managed to preserve a thread of his soul origin.” Qin Lie thought for a moment and grabbed a speck of pitch black soul from Abrit’s head. “Temporarily, I cannot give this soul origin to you. After I deal with the Saint God, I will think of a way to revive Senior Abrit using this soul origin. However, he may lose most of his memories and forget you.”

The three demon dragon brothers could feel their father’s weak presence from the soul shadow.

The great anger in their eyes faded slowly at Qin Lie’s words.

“As long as Father is still here and has not truly died, we… can accept it,” Scott said helplessly.

“Thank you for your understanding,” Qin Lie said apologetically.

His soul floated towards the Dark Soul Beast avatar.

Mitchell, who had taken the Dark Soul Beast avatar hostage to threaten him moved aside when Qin Lie approached.

“How is the Thunder Emperor and Shang Mou’s situation?” Qin Lie asked after he returned to his avatar.
