Chapter 661: Six Reincarnations
After Yang Ling killed the arrogant and hateful Dio, he openly led the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others back to the main hall opposite to the Departed Spirit Road.
The main hall was in a mess due to the turmoil that had suddenly occurred. The region previously occupied by Algernon Divine Branch had changed beyond recognition because of the many flying demons that had detonated themselves there. A large crater had appeared in the ground, and even the pillars in the vicinity were shattered. The main hall’s height was on par with a multi-storied building, yet a hole had appeared in the ceiling due to the strong airwaves.
In the end, dozens of flying demons had detonated themselves to erase all traces. Even though Yang Ling’s group stood brazenly next to the crater, no one around them knew that it was them who had caused all this.
“Huh? What is the matter with this crater?” The Corpse Wizard King looked at the large crater before looking at the numerous wanderers in the vicinity. He knew the answer, yet he still questioned them.
“It was caused by an explosion. Godhead explosions,” a wanderer answered, and shook his head. He continued, “Several hundred flying demons detonated their Godheads, and it was really so terrifying. Almost all of Algernon Divine Branch’s guards were killed. It’s fortunate that you have only just come here, because if that wasn’t the case, you might have been torn to shreds by the explosion.”
“Impossible! Why would the flying demons detonate their Godheads?” the Corpse Wizard King exclaimed. He continued playing the fool and wore a pensive look on purpose before saying, “Could it be that some people committed too many crimes, and even flying demons couldn’t bear to watch?”
“Hehe, that is right,” the wanderer said. “It’s retribution. It’s really good that they exploded. Let’s see whether Algernon Divine Branch’s men will still dare to act so arrogantly and tyrannically in the future.”
As a vulgar person with a triangular face thought about Dio’s pretty female guards, he couldn’t help but shake his head and say out loud that it was a pity. “It isn’t good,” he said. “It isn’t good at all. It’s fine for those guards to die, but why did the group of pretty women have to be killed by the explosion too? If they were left behind to accompany us, wouldn’t that have been better?”
…
After Yang Ling ascertained that hadn’t left any traces, he didn’t hesitate any longer and led the crowd toward the Departed Spirit Road, which was engulfed with resentment. He planned to cross the bridge and go to the Demon Hall on the opposite side. After they observed the numerous skeleton hands on both sides of the bridge and detected the inextinguishable resentment in the air, the Corpse Wizard King and others found themselves at their wits’ end, while Yang Ling’s expression turned grave.
The closer they got to the bridge, the intenser the resentment became, and the stronger the soul attacks contained within it. Even Yang Ling felt a chill, not to mention the Corpse Wizard King and others. The soul attacks consecutively attacked the Soul Crystal in his brain and tried to break through his soul’s defense.
The Departed Spirit Great Formation was an Ancient Magical Formation Spell that could bind souls, and it was no small matter.
After the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others formed the Demon God Battle Formation, scarlet radiance emanated from the Magical Divine Rings around their fingers, and they managed to resist the resentment’s impact. But the closer they got to the bridge, the weaker the scarlet radiance became, and it even started shaking. It seemed like a flame that would be extinguished at any moment.
The Demon God Battle Formation possessed great power, and the Magical Beast Divine Branch had great potential. But Algernon Divine Branch and Longbarton Divine Branch had an inheritance of millions of years, so there was a large disparity between the Magical Beast Divine Branch and those great Divine Branches when it came to comprehensive power and numbers of followers.
It was only after the Magical Beast Divine Branch left the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension and gathered innumerable followers in many planes that Yang Ling would become a Magical Beast Lord who could overlook all beings. And it was on that day that the Magical Divine Rings might be completely revealed.
There were many Divine Branches in the innumerable Alien Planes and all sorts of Divine Branches, but most only had a fixed domain and a limited number of followers. Their development potential was limited. Algernon Divine Branch and Longbarton Divine Branch were Divine Branches with a large influence and followers in all planes, and there were only a few great Divine Branches like them.
The new Magical Beast Divine Branch’s power wasn’t enough to conquer everything, but it still had great potential.
“Departed Spirit Road, what is the difference between this Ancient Magical Formation Spell and a Soul Restriction Spell?” he asked. When Yang Ling discerned that this task had turned more strenuous for the Corpse Wizard King and others, he didn’t force them to persist any longer and moved back with them by several steps. He set up the Great Wizard Altar in the Departed Spirit Road’s vicinity and sat cross-legged on it.
After Yang Ling set up several Restriction Spells, he asked the crowd to guard the Great Wizard Altar. “Rodriguez,” he said, “guard the Great Wizard Altar, and don’t allow anyone to go alone without my permission.”
Yang Ling strove hard to rouse the Soul Crystal in his brain and release his cobweb-like Mental Energy. He carefully observed the Departed Spirit Formation’s mysteries.
He had felt for a while that this Ancient Magical Formation Spell wasn’t used for something as simple as blocking the road. The towering palace’s end couldn’t be seen with a glance, but while there were some places preserved well, there were also many regions destroyed in some places. The bridge’s handrails were almost destroyed, and only some marks were left. It seemed like this Ancient Magical Formation Spell had sustained great damages, and if he could comprehend the mystery behind this formation’s soul fetters, it would probably be quite beneficial to his practice.
Swoosh!
The Soul Crystal in Yang Ling’s brain started shaking intensely, and it released dense Crystal Mist, which spread slowly. The mist slowly started eroding the Death Energy and resentment within its scope. Yang Ling’s Divine Consciousness was greatly restricted by the Departed Spirit Formation Spell, but he drew help from the Great Wizard Altar and managed to spread out the Crystal Mist little by little. His mind was clear, and he carefully observed with his senses the Departed Spirit Formation Spell’s mysteries. He didn’t let anything suspicious escape his notice.
The gravity in the Departed Spirit Road’s air was too high, and it was difficult even for Divine Duty Experts to fly there. The higher the altitude, the denser the resentment and the higher the gravity. It was like a Gravity Restriction Spell with a large scope. There were also many departed spirits in the black river, and those were all illusory souls. Some of them had turned into unconscious Undeads that stretched their skeletal hands out of the river. These Undeads tried to rush out of the black water, but even if they devoured a large number of souls, evolved into a Specter King, and expended a lot of effort, it would still be difficult for them to get out of the water.
When Yang Ling saw the innumerable skeletal hands in the black river and listened to the mournful ghosts’ cries, he felt like he heard innumerable souls wailing and complaining. “Huh?” he thought. “Can it be that a layer of Restriction Spells is set up on the water surface, and it can forcefully bind the souls of the dead in the water?” Once this happened, their souls would be restricted, and they would never become reborn. This was terrifying torture and a curse to those people.
“Could I use a Soul Wizard Spell to forcefully break the Restriction Spell on the water and destroy this damaged Departed Spirit Formation Spell?” Yang Ling thought. When he detected the resentment in the river and heard the numerous souls’ cries, he started weaving Wizard Seals subconsciously and read the Ancient Sacrificial Words written on the obelisk. He drew help from the Great Wizard Altar, which was covered by magic symbols, to cast a Sacrificial Wizard Spell.
In ancient times, Great Soul Wizards studied Sacrificial Wizard Spells to appease their dead warriors and resentful souls. They would arouse the Soul Print in the depths of the departed spirits’ souls and evoke their yearnings for home and their families. In the end, they would help the soul regain their calm and turn to nothingness. Dust would return to dust, and soil would return to soil. The souls would go back to the place where they should have been all along.Read more chapter on NovelFull
The sacrifice could appease mutant departed spirits, and the Sacrificial Fire contained the essence of a Soul Wizard’s offensive power, which was a soul attack that could be used to neutralize evil spirits. It could even be used to destroy the souls in the river and protect the Soul Wizard’s tribe.
The Demon Hall had existed for innumerable years, and the Departed Spirit Road had accumulated a large amount of resentment, but it would finally go through new changes.
Bleak Sacrificial Words echoed out of the Great Wizard Altar and reverberated throughout every corner of the hall. They spread far away and seemed like formless spring rain, seeping into every person’s soul and stunning it. This matter occurred suddenly, and even strong wanderers’ minds were slightly affected. They reminisced about their dead relatives, and the voices and smiling faces of people who had died many years ago emerged in their minds.
The dense Crystal Mist at the vicinity of the Great Wizard Altar dissipated at an unknown time and was replaced by faint scarlet radiance. This radiance emitted obscure Energy Ripples, and it seemed like a throbbing flame, spreading quickly to both sides of the Departed Spirit Road.
Buzz!
A creaking noise echoed out as if an old wooden gate had been pushed open, and a soft cry emanated from the black river. Soon after, many phantom images soared into the sky and flew toward Yang Ling’s Great Wizard Altar. They started revolving quickly around the Great Wizard Altar, which was covered with magic symbols, and emitted black light specks, which entered Yang Ling’s body.
The phantom images quickly turned more transparent due to the Sacrificial Words, and they thoroughly disappeared from the surface of the world. The ghastly skeletal hands in the black river disappeared along with them, and the resentment in the air of the Departed Spirit Road, which contained terrifying soul attacks, also dissipated quickly.
This was Departed Spirits’ Purification. The departed spirits bound to the black river finally got the purification they had yearned for even in their dreams. They were purified by the bleak Sacrificial Words and the Sacrificial Fire.
“Soul fetters, it turns out that it’s like this,” Yang Ling thought. His Divine Consciousness spread quickly thanks to the Sacrificial Fire and the Great Wizard Altar, which was covered with Magic Symbols. He managed to understand the Departed Spirit Formation Spell’s mysteries and smoothly broke the Ancient Soul Magical Formation Spell. He also got another nice surprise. The numerous souls, which were purified, drastically raised the amount of Soul Energy in his mind, and he also managed to get a faint understanding of the mysterious and abstruse Soul Restriction Spell recorded on the obelisk.
As Yang Ling observed with his senses the Departed Spirit Formation Spell’s mysteries, he pondered over something and came up with a daring idea. “Soul Fetters, can I create an independent space in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension and set up a Soul Restriction Spell similar to the Departed Spirit Formation Spell? It could be used to condense the souls released after people’s deaths, and I could also create with it six reincarnations that can’t be restricted by the World’s Laws.”
The Wizard Pagoda’s dimension was the homeland of the numerous Magical Beasts, and it was his followers’ holy land. The lifespan of humans and Magical Beasts alike would be raised greatly after practicing to the Domain-Level, and if they advanced into the God-Level, they would have a very long lifespan. But both humans and Magical Beasts alike would still become old or die by unnatural causes. Yang Ling was a Great Soul Wizard, and he could take care of his relatives and competent battle generals, but he still couldn’t take care of every devout follower and tamed Magical Beast.
Usually humans’ and Magical Beasts’ souls would go to the mysterious Death Plane after their deaths, and this was the case unless those souls were extinguished on the spot. In the Death Plane, their souls might be devoured by other people or turn into a new Undead after passing millions of years in the boundless Bone Sea. They were controlled completely by Fate Laws!
He should go over the Three Worlds’ Laws and go beyond the Five Elements’ restraints.
After the amount of his Soul Energy turned higher, and he his comprehension of Soul Wizard Spells and Soul Restriction Spells grew deeper, Yang Ling suddenly got the idea to create the special six reincarnations in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension.
He would fight against the world and contend against fate. He would break all fetters. He was a Great Soul Wizard, and he wouldn’t let fate control him and his relatives. Breaking the world’s World Laws, Fate Law, and other laws was quite difficult. But it wouldn’t be impossible for him to achieve it with the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension and the mysterious Wizard Spells.
