Chapter 433

Soon Alchemist Linus and Leylin left the Flying Cloud Summit. It took them only two hours to reach the target place, the cave where the dead souls gathered.


Right when the fat Linus arrived, he took out an emerald armor, which looked like a stream of water flowing around his outfit. Green waves were rippling on it. This was a Sacred Level secret treasure with water attribute.


After he got into the cave under the shade of the mountain, His small eyes got colder. His face darkened as he said glumly. "We're late."


The cave was empty. No dead souls remained, neither did a single blade of grass. The green dot that looked sinister and gloomy on the wall were all gone too. Only the cold, strange aura stayed.


Leylin didn't comment, he walked to the deepest area of the cave, searching carefully. He looked at a concave area intensely.


"Is that where you saw the green meat block?"


"Yes."


Linus didn't doubt him as he nodded. His brows furrowed tightly, revealing a seriousness he had never revealed before. He walked back and forth inside the cave many times. His small eyes were as bright as two dazzling diamonds in this gloomy cave.


Afterward, He exhaled begrudgingly. "Big troubles."


Leylin sighed, he could now confirm that he wasn't wrong to retreat back then. For a Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior to be this disoriented and disturbed, it's sure to be a big deal.


"There must be a big change in those dead souls."


He turned around, contemplated for a while, and then explained, "Forty years ago, a formidable dead soul had appeared in the dead souls' evil lairs. We had joined hands with the Pure Land, the Devil Valley, and the Radiant God Cult to kill that dead soul. In that battle, many Spirit Realm experts from the Pure Land, the Devil Valley, and the Radiant God Cult died. Their souls were dragged into the dead soul's evil lairs. A warrior of the Devil Valley, thanks to his bizarre soul technique, could endure for a short while in the evil lair. Before he lost his mind, he reminded us not to let the dead soul give birth to an entity at any cost. At his last moment before turning into a dead soul, he said that the dead souls have some secret method that uses the warriors' dead bodies to nurture their entity. Once a high-level dead soul could have a body, its power would increase tremendously. And, its cultivation base would be enhanced several times stronger."


Leylin frowned, this surely seemed like a big deal.


"The Sky Realm warriors can't deal with the typical dead souls. A relatively high-level dead soul can toy the Spirit Realm experts in its hands. Regarding this max-level dead soul, only the True God Realm warriors can save their souls from the erosive power. If you want to destroy it, you have to use the secret treasures with the lightning attribute. When the max-level dead souls have a body, they will be complete. At that time, they won't need to depend on the dead souls' evil lair anymore. They can leave the evil lair and it will be a big catastrophe of the Dead Soul Mountain range. This can even spread to the Divine Great Land!" Linus was anxious and kept sighing.


Leylin kept silent, not saying a word. He didn't have anything to do with all this, at worst he would just drift away and let others deal with this issue.


'But I have to determine first, if this calamity can reap some benefits. Opportunities and danger come hand in hand, if I can squeeze out some benefits that would be for the best. Anyways even with my current strength, I can roam pretty much carefree in the whole Divine Land.' Leylin thought as he commanded the A. I. Chip to project his stats.


[Beep! (Berkan Lenoir) Leylin Farlier, Strength: 69.4, Agility: 59.3, Vitality: 123.0, Profound Qi: First Sky of Spirit Realm. Status: Healthy]


Leylin physical stats have already surpassed the limits of a normal Spirit realm or a Morning Star Magus strength, Leylin is sure that when he breakthrough to Second Sky of Spirit Realm his physical attribute won't be worse than a New Moon Radiant Moon Warlock!


With such a strength, very few in the whole Divine Land mostly only the leaders of the seven ancient factions and few hidden old experts can interpret Leylin and cause him trouble, otherwise he is unmatched under True God Realm.


"I have to contact the experts in the mountain range shortly and notify the Elders of the Pure Land, the Radiant God Cult, and the Devil Valley. Before that dead soul completes its body, we should destroy the chunk of meat that could become its body. We can't linger for even a second!"


Linus pondered and then suggested, "You should leave the Dead Soul Mountain range as soon as possible. I think it would be very dangerous in the coming time. The dead souls know what that body means to them, so they will protect it with all of their abilities. The Dead Soul Mountain range will have a big battle, in which I don't know how many would die. Sigh, too bad I haven't entered the True God Realm yet. I still need one more year. This event has happened before time."


"Things seldom pan out, the way you want them to." Leylin replied naturally.


"Yeah...*Sigh* You can go to the Spirit Potion Valley or the Precious Tool Valley. But you shouldn't stay there for long."


Then, Linus left quickly. It seemed he wanted to check the caves around the area to see if he could find the gathering point of the dead souls.


The Dead Soul Mountain range had almost one thousand mountains, situated in a vast area. Not all the dead souls were stupid. When they knew they should hide their auras, they would be more careful.


After he left, Leylin didn't linger. He decided to take a stroll around the Spirit Potion Valley and the Precious Tool Valley. He could ask for more details and traces there to keep track of this strange event.


Soon he reached the Precious Tool Valley, he visited each store to find some strange spirit crystals.


He then borrowed a small cultivation room in the Tool Hall and modified it to his liking, with his attainment in formation and blacksmithship along with appropriate resources he can turn any run of the mill place into a cultivating heaven.


Treasure and capital is the least important thing he had to worry about, so he immediately finished the modifications to his liking.


Then, Leylin entered secluded training to research Blacksmith's Secrets of Success and possibly breakthrough to Second Sky Of Spirit Realm.


The most subject of research for him currently isn't increasing his understanding of Upanishads to reach the next realm into his cultivation, but instead the mysterious and ancient Blacksmith's Secrets of Success.


Especially the Transportation Arrays recorded in its mystic space. The reason why Leylin is so concerned in this particular subject is because, fully comprehending the Transportation array would help him in comprehending Space upanishads.


If he used the mysteries of the Teleportation Formation to break through shortly, his understanding of space power would rocket to a high level.


Space power and time power, these two kinds of powers were always the rarest and the most difficult to master. Even in the Divine Great Land, no one had ever heard that anyone could control these two powers.


....


Time flew fast, as a month passed like a blink of an eye.


Leylin was constantly exhausting him Soul Consciousness to unravel the secrets of Blacksmith's Secrets of Success and continuously used various precious self concocted pellets to revitalize and further strengthen his sea of consciousness.


Leylin sat emotionlessly still and quiet. During this month in this cultivation room, he had been sinking into his mind, wholeheartedly focusing on training without caring about the impending chaos outside.


...


The Spirit Potion Valley…


Recently, many experts from the Pure Land, the Radiant God Cult, the Devil Valley showed up in the area. They were rushing with gloomy faces.


In the Precious Potion Valley, some famous alchemists of the Divine Great Land were affected. They often walked back and forth in the valley. Sometimes, they sighed begrudgingly.


Although many low-level warriors in the Dead Soul Mountain range didn't know what was happening, they vaguely felt the danger like a breeze before a big storm.


People who knew the secret told their disciples and friends silently. Some warriors who had regularly visited the Spirit Potion Valley and the Precious Tool Valley left the area without leaving any trace. They didn't dare to stay in the Dead Soul Mountain range for any longer.


More and more people recognized that the Dead Soul Mountain range was about to face a big event.


The danger of the dead soul should have been spreading out, which gathered the warriors living around the Dead Soul Mountain range in the Spirit Potion Valley and the Precious Tool Valley.


There were many outsiders at Spirit Realm experts in the Spirit Potion Valley, joining hands with the experts to find some solution but without any avail.


Mount Heaven Whistle…


Inside a gloomy cave in the center of the mountain, countless dark green dead souls hung on the walls, covering the entire surface. A pond of corpses situated in the middle of the cave where bodies piled up. Dark green blood was constantly oozing. Many blocks of meat were stuck into the corpse refining pond, sucking the nutrition from the dead bodies. They kept enlarging continually.


Mount Heaven Whistle was a small and poor mountain among almost one thousand mountains of the Dead Soul Mountain range. The heaven and earth aura here was faint, and no warrior stayed on this mountain to cultivate.


Inside some caves in Mount Heaven Whistle, green light columns as big as tree trunks were shrinking, and a large amount of Yin Qi was overflowing from them.


Dead souls inside the cave were spurting out a dark green, viscous liquid onto the meat chunks. This liquid then turned into layers of energy, getting absorbed into the meat chunks.


Time passed quietly.


Crack!


The cracking sound of an egg hatching rose. The membrane covering the meat chunk cracked, then fell on the ground piece by piece.


A green, short-limbed creature which was as tall as a ten-year-old child emerged from the meat chunk. Its skin was wrinkled like an ugly toad. Its three pupils had a deep, cold, dark green hue, and its look was sinister to the extreme.


It was a humanoid creature, with a pointy head and no ears. There were many holes on its cheeks, and its nostrils moved as if it were breathing the evil aura of this cave.


Dead souls in the cave suddenly got excited. Hundreds of dead souls joined hands and fiercely pushed that creature into the dead souls' evil lair inside the cave.


Swoosh!


The first body of the dead soul that was refined from the Corpse Refining Pond had been pushed into the dead souls' evil lair.


A sinister green halo expanded from the evil lair as its center, rippling out. The size of the evil lair doubled in just a blink.


From outside the evil lair, it looked like numerous dark green tentacles were piercing into the dead soul body, transmitting the evil energy just like a drip-feed.


Crack Crack!


Hundreds of dead souls surrounded the evil lair and cheered. Their sounds were sharp, their whistles seeming like thousands of ghosts crying miserably. An aura of resentment soared to the sky.


Inside Mount Heaven Whistle, blocks of meat enlarged fast.


Soon, another dead soul body was born.


The first dead soul with its body got out of the evil lair, then walked to the pond in the cave. Countless green tentacles extended from its waist like worms, and pierced into the newborn dead soul bodies.


Evil energy quickly poured into the newborn bodies, enlarging them.


Not long afterward, excited high-level dead souls floating around all stormed over at the same time, choosing a body and entering their new hosts.


...


During the next month, hundreds of warriors, alchemists, and blacksmiths seemed to evaporate. Some people had taken risks intruding the Dead Soul Mountain range to hunt the dead souls and harvest the treasures from the dead souls' evil lairs. They all disappeared one by one.


The news of their missing status came to the Precious Tool Valley and the Spirit Potion Valley, which made the ones who hadn't left yet scared, giving up the thought of running away in their heads.


The situation became grimmer day by day.


Alchemist Linus, the blacksmiths of the Precious Tool Valley, together with the experts from the Pure Land, the Radiant God Cult, and the Devil Valley discussed daily to identify the news of new missing people.


These days, according to the statistics of the Spirit Hall and Tool Hall, at least seven hundred warriors went missing.


Warriors living in the two valleys all felt insecure.


Linus was extremely busy, and was even having a serious headache. When he went out searching for the dead souls, he didn't dare to go alone, and often departed with hotshots of the Tool Hall.


It was unknown why when his group came out searching in the regions of the Dead Soul Mountain range, they usually didn't find anything abnormal. Even a single dead soul was hard to see.


This doesn't fit the common sense.


Before the dead souls had the anomaly, they could easily meet the dead souls near the area of the evil lairs. It was impossible that they couldn't find even a single dead soul for several days.


After the dead souls had some big changes, according to normal sense, this should be the time the dead souls operated more crowdedly, and slaughter everywhere.


After several failed searching missions, Linus and his group became more panic-stricken.


People still kept going missing mysteriously. This situation hadn't stopped yet. Gradually, everyone recognized a fact they found it hard to accept.


It wasn't true that the dead souls had stopped all of their operations. They were still slaughtering everywhere else. The reason why they hadn't met them was that the dead souls had sensed their presence and missions beforehand to stay away before they reached the area.


Also, this meant the dead souls hadn't gathered enough power. They understood that they didn't have sufficient force to battle with the human warriors. So, they were hiding and waiting for the chance to snatch other groups of human warriors.


After they confirmed this finding, Linus and the blacksmiths of the Tool Hall started to feel scared, as their worries about the dead souls swelled up in their hearts.


The Spirit Potion Valley and the Precious Tool Valley were sealed up.


At the same time, the Spirit Hall and the Tool Hall had sent the message to the warriors cultivating in the surrounding mountains, asking them to come to the valley quickly.


At the same time, after the Pure Land, the Radiant God Cult, and the Devil Valley sent their Elders to the site, they couldn't help but pay more attention to the moves of the Dead Soul Mountain range tightly.


Some said that True God Realm warriors of these three factions had gradually come back from their secluding cultivation. They would hurry to the Dead Soul Mountain range soon.


All of a sudden, the Dead Soul Mountain range had become the focus of the entire Divine Great Land. After the ancient factions got the information of the anomaly in the Dead Soul Mountain range, they all used their ways to collect the news from there.



Time passed quickly as Leylin continued his seclusion without intervening or caring about the commotion outside.


In between his training, Linda once came to request his company but he didn't move and directly ignored her. Leylin has nothing to do with her, all his potential business is related to her master and he has no qualms to associate himself with any trouble.


Leylin is clear that with his current powers, even if Alchemist Linus where to renegade on the favour Leylin bestowed upon him by giving him the Life Original Fluid he can still make him cough off all that he needs.


Although Linus might have the potential to become a True God Realm warrior in the future, so what currently he's still a Third Sky of Spirit Realm and usually alchemist are not experts in fighting.


Leylin knows that he must have many hidden cards under his wraps but, he's also a man of many ways.


Obviously this is mostly overthinking, because Alchemist Linus isn't one to black out his benefactors. His character albeit arrogant is still rather good.


....


A month later,


Right in the middle of a hidden evil lair was arranged a diamond sacrificial altar, which was made of bones and flesh.


The diamond sacrificial altar was lit up. A strange, sinister energy was generated, multiplying in it.


All of a sudden, blood splashed while flesh shattered everywhere. Under the expanding green halo, the altar crumpled.


The dead soul's evil lair shrank along with the green ecliptic extent. All of a sudden, rays of light bloomed.


Strange aliens with dark virescent skin and green tattoos on their faces struggled, walking out of the ecliptic. They had a humanoid appearance. Their eyes were all cold and sinister.


Their whole body was green, their faces had patterns, and their bodies were covered in thick and heavy armor, which seemed to connect tightly with their flesh as if it were an innate feature of their bodies.


These aliens had a vicious, cold aura. Resentment appeared in their eyes as if they had a deep grudge against every creature. They were all intimidating, appearing from the evil lairs then shooting towards the Spirit Potion Valley and Precious Tool Valley.


That massive dead souls' evil lair was like a battleship that was connected to them, flying behind.



Spirit Potion Valley…


Linus and other top experts were discussing in the room when all of a sudden, their eyelids convulsed. They all felt fear rising in their hearts.


Ferrell, one of top experts currently in the Dead Soul Mountain changed his expression in fear. He jolted up, jumping onto an observatory of the Spirit Hall and released his Soul Consciousness to sense everywhere.


Alchemist Linus with another Spirit Realm Scared Level Alchemist, Neville also came to the place, extending their Soul Consciousness. Taking the Spirit Potion Valley as the center, they were spreading the sense far away.


Almost at the same time, their eyes showed their fear.


From far away, they saw a green light area as spooky as a green swamp. It was gliding deliberately, while the evil energy accumulated in it increased gradually.


"The dead souls!" Linus screamed in fear.


Neville and Ferrell didn't answer him. They all took out the Sound Stone, frowning while narrating the situation.


When Ferrell was done, he used his Soul Consciousness to sense again, more carefully. Suddenly, he said, "It's not the dead souls. It's the Dark Spirit Clan. This dangerous race has finally rebuilt their bodies and struggled out of the foreign land."


Linus was surprised, "What do you mean?"


Ferrell was an Elder of the Pure Land, one of the oldest factions in the Divine Great Land. Books in their sects piled up like mountains, which even had the secret writings of the whole era.


"In the Antiquity Era, there were many races in the Grace Mainland. Humans didn't simply rule the place like now. At some point in history, there was a race called the Dark Spirit Clan. Even if their bodies were smashed, their souls remained. In the ancient time, this race formed a powerful tribal clan. At their peak, they were much stronger than human warriors. They had many generations of experts and hotshots."


Ferrell took a deep breath, "The Dark Spirit Clan was good at controlling souls. At their peak, many human warriors had their souls enslaved, making them their servants. In the Ancient time, when human warriors rebelled, a multiracial war burst out. After that war, the Dark Spirit Clan was almost uprooted."


"Under such circumstances, the Dark Spirit Clan decided to leave their bodies, using only the souls to escape to the foreign land. They then kept the big grudge against the race that won the battle. They tried to survive in the foreign land. It's been tens of thousands of years. No one knows what changes the Dark Spirit Clan has experienced in the foreign land. They have become more sinister and inhumane.


"The five dead souls' evil lairs are the space crack that connects the land of the Dark Spirit Clan, and also their barriers. The strongest experts of the clan had built these five barriers that year to prevent the other races from getting in their territory and their members from escaping the place. The stronger they are, the harder it is to get out of the barriers. The dead souls we meet here are the souls of the Dark Spirit Clan's members who had lost their bodies. But they have been changed after thousands of years…"


Ferrell revealed the secret regarding the Dark Spirit Clan, which was covered in dust for years, with a solemn visage.


"None of us know what is in the foreign land inside the dead souls' evil lairs. But I know that the current Dark Spirit Clan should have something changed in the foreign land, which makes them more intimidating. They are hard to deal with now. Since they can get through the barrier, I think we have to use all of our forces."


Linus and others were scared.


"I notified my Cult Master. He'll be here shortly," A Spirit Rank Warrior from Radiant God Cut, Saurus wore a heavy countenance. "The return of the Dark Spirit Clan is related to the future of mankind. Not only my Radiant God Cult, but also your Pure Land, Devil Valley, and the other factions have to be careful. Once we're careless, the Dark Spirit Clan will take over this land."


"You also know of the Dark Spirit Clan?" Linus asked, a bit angry that they withheld such an important piece of information.


"Although the history of our Radiant God Cult isn't as profound as the Pure Land's, we used to have some books of the Ancient times. We know something about that time too," Sarus answered deliberately.


"The enemy's threatening. We have to counter with all of our forces. Everybody should be cautious."
