337 DEALING WITH THE EVIL SOUL-” You want our help. Why not do it yourself?”

“As you would be aware by now, that neither of us is going to last for a very long time. We are waiting for someone who could help take care of the evil soul with our help, and either of us will die along with it.”

“Why should we help you then?” The Keeper asks in a questioning toe.

Both the tree and the altar are silent as they couldn’t find a feasible reply. ” You are asking us to accompany you into a situation whose severity is not known to us, nor is the success rate. You want him to risk his life, and in return, the only thing which motivated him to come here is going to get destroyed. So where is the logic to help them.”

“It would be much more feasible to help the evil soul and take your weakened bodies forcefully. If I absorb you, much of my powers will be restored and I would go through a series of transformations, enabling me to contain the evil soul. Hence I would like to reject your offer.” Google search f𝐫e𝘦𝘸e𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵe𝗹. c𝑜m

“Are you trying to threaten us?” The altar’s irritated voice spoke up.

You have quite a strong voice for someone who is at the end of his life, unable to do anything but contain the evil soul. Where does your arrogance come from.” The altars were forced into silence by the words since he was surprised that the artifact could sense his real condition.

“The evils soul is too powerful and evil to be let out in this world. He would end up destroying the whole plane, and hence I request you to help us. Is there any way you would agree to help us?”

“There is. Give me half of your remaining essence as a reserve for the situation. Should they fail, the essence would help Li Meng survive the situation. As per the altar, your weapon soul will be absorbed by me, and you will not resist. I can easily suck all of it with you being helpless, but I have decided to help.”

.....

The tree and altar finally agreed on the proposal, when the Keeper interfered once again.

“Anything that is left of the two of you will also go this boy, or be absorbed by me. If you agree, start with a soul vow.” The tree and the latter finally gave up to the Keeper’s demands and made a soul vow, leaving all of their remains to Li Meng and the Keeper.

“I will start the process by helping you put another set of seals on the area. Once I am done with it, we will start the process of eliminating the evil soul. I will try my best to contain the destruction within the area and you can concentrate on destroying the evil soul.

“What is the evil soul exactly?”

“It is an abomination built within the depths of hell. It is a herald of destruction that brings death along with it. Especially powerful ones like this one sealed here. The owner decided to destroy it with his own hands, but it was too powerful for him to deal with. That’s when he came up with a plan to drain it out.

“The river which led you here is created out of its energy. You can also describe it as the core of Hell too. It has the potential to affect the world core of any plane and attach to it like a parasite, eventually changing it. The world’s core slowly morphs into a hell core and ends up eliminating the beings present within the plane.”

“It will eventually start changing the environment and the energy within the plane. Then it will start affecting the laws of the world, slowly devouring it, and morphing it into the laws of hell. In the end, nothing will remain of the world as we see it now.”

“What do you want me to help with?”

“We will siphon our remaining energy through you while you destroy the evil soul inside the altar. Your job is to tire it out. The formation was designed to continuously drain it of energy. The more he tries to move and attack, the faster it will be devoid of energy. Your task is to tire him out and force him to utilize his energy.”

“Wouldn’t it be more feasible to directly destroy it?” Li Meng asked.

“You overestimate our power. If we were able to kill it, we would have done it long ago. Its power could only be eliminated after a prolonged fight with it, draining its energy as time passes. Eventually, all that will remain is a hollow shell and its energy drained by the formation.”

Li Meng decided to consult with Keeper before rushing with the process.

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

“Can we utilize its energy?” Li Meng asked. He practiced Hell energy himself, and it would be a huge supplement for him if he could use the energy of the evil soul for himself.”

“If you were a little more powerful, I would have asked you to try and devour it directly. I can work something out by connecting with the formation. We might be able to collect all the energy which the formation drains off the evil soul.”

“It wouldn’t be harmful right?” Li Meng was still concerned with the complications which might arise due to the evil soul.

“When it finally weakens, and the two entities are at their last bit of strength, you could try and devour it directly. You might bring the transformation which we were expecting by absorbing the Extreme-Yin tree.

” If it is a tree from hell, why is it insistent on killing the evil soul? Shouldn’t it support the evil soul in its path?”

“A tree with sentience is somewhat difficult to find. The owner of this cave not only found one but managed to tame it and make it his servant. It now works based on the will of its master. What is more important is that the evil soul is also consuming the tree’s energy. So it must sacrifice itself if the evil soul is to be destroyed.”

“The more concerning point is the possibility that the evil soul can overpower and take control over you. We might face a calamity then.”

“What do you suggest we do?”

“I suggest that in the case of a possession like that, you blow yourself up.” The Keeper was straightforward. It instructed Li Meng to blow himself up in case of failure. Long tao would end up losing an avatar in case of failure, which he didn’t want. But the lure of the treasures was too great. At the moment the weight of the treasure far outweighed the avatar’s value.

“I guess huge reward comes with huge risk and this is a risk I am willing to take.”
