Chapter 517: The Terrified Sacred Source Lifeforms

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Yuan stood there. His usually pristinely straight spine was now hunched over and quivering.

Lin Yuan was worried that the energy in his Extreme Token would run out quickly while combating the Class 5 dimensional rift.

However, Lin Yuan never expected that the spirit qi in his Spirit Qi Imprint would run out before the energy in the Extreme Token.

Lin Yuan had been activating the Bud of Mountain Jade to heal his injured arms, but he had underestimated the depletion of the Platinum/Fantasy III Jasmine Lily’s spirit qi, as well as the severity of his injuries.

The dimensional energy in the dimensional hub was like sharp knives that were slicing apart each inch of Lin Yuan’s skin that was in the dimensional hub.

Not even the supple skin between his fingers was spared.

With every dimensional fluctuation, agonizing pain pierced Lin Yuan’s brain.

The dimensional fluctuations took place every second.

Lin Yuan’s brain was dizzy with anguish, and it soon started to feel numb.

To make matters worse, Lin Yuan also needed to withstand the draining feeling that came with having the spirit qi in his body siphoned out.

It was already enough of a struggle for spirit qi professionals to fight through the feeling of having their spirit qi siphoned out, much less when they needed to endure torturous pain as well, like what Lin Yuan was doing.

His determined expression was partially obscured by the sand blowing around in the air.

Even if Lin Yuan’s Source Sand was not particularly intelligent, it could still sense Lin Yuan’s current condition.

The flying sand was the Source Sand’s way of motivating Lin Yuan.

The Genius mask that Lin Yuan was wearing fell from his face, and the silver mask turned into a three-tailed white cat.

When Genius saw Lin Yuan, its blue eyes welled up with tears.

Instead of snuggling into Lin Yuan’s embrace like what it usually did, it jumped onto Lin Yuan’s shoulder.

Genius knew that if it touched Lin Yuan, it could very well be the last strand that caused Lin Yuan to collapse, effectively wasting all his effort.

Although Lin Yuan was dizzy, numb with fatigue and pain, and seemed as though he could fall asleep at any moment, his mind was actually exceptionally clear.

Even if he only had one breath left in him, Lin Yuan was going to retrieve the two sacred source lifeforms—it was the last thing he would do.

Unfortunately, the damage to his hands was too serious.

The Bud of Mountain Jade could not receive Lin Yuan’s spirit qi, and no matter how much it tried to use Heal on Lin Yuan, his hands would not recover as fast as he was worsening.

In a flash, Lin Yuan’s hands had been reduced to a mere slip of flesh.

The helplessness and pain from being drained of spirit qi combined with the blood loss from his hands weakened him severely.

The three centimeters separating his hand from the source-type lifeforms suddenly felt more like miles to the determined Lin Yuan.

Morbius’ voice rang out from beside Lin Yuan’s ear.

“You can do it, Yuan!”

Along with Morbius’ voice that came from Lin Yuan’s spiritual spatial zone, Morbius also used Calm Mind on him.

During the short period of comfort that came from Calm Mind, a stunning magnificence radiated from between his brows, and Lin Yuan mustered all the strength in him for one final stretch.

One hand after the other closed in on the glowing rainbow masses.

As he lurched forward, he grabbed and swiped all the source-type lifeforms out of the dimensional hub.

Lin Yuan crashed onto the gravel.

The flying gravel was like a bed of cotton that gently cushioned his fall.

Utter exhaustion was evident on Lin Yuan’s face, but the magnificent radiance between his brow was dimming but had not disappeared.

He had just experienced a gut-wrenching fight with death.

The dimming radiance was now wider than his shoulders.

The Bud of Mountain Jade’s healing light continued to work on Lin Yuan’s injured hands.

Lin Yuan immediately felt a numbing itch of pain on his hands.

Lin Yuan silently endured as the pain came from the regrowth of new flesh.

This meant his hands were in a state of recovery.

Lin Yuan took a few deep breaths but still could not fully calm himself.

Suddenly, Lin Yuan felt a different kind of pain than the physical one, and he noticed the two glowing rainbow masses in his hand had disappeared.

Once again, Lin Yuan was awash in excruciating anguish.

The pain was similar to the one he had experienced while cleansing his soul of impurities at the Radiant Moon Palace.

After his soul had been cleansed, Lin Yuan never had the chance to see the two human silhouettes in the depths of his soul again.

But now, Lin Yuan’s consciousness returned to the depths of his soul again.

What Lin Yuan found most appalling was that the two glowing rainbow masses were melding with the two human silhouettes in the depths of his soul.

The two glowing rainbow masses were shining brilliantly as they crashed against the human silhouettes like in a fight for dominance.

Lin Yuan remembered that when the Moon Empress had been talking about the sacred source lifeforms, she had mentioned that one needed the help of numerous soul-nourishing spirit ingredients in order to successfully contract the sacred source lifeforms.

One also needed to be at least 20 years old to contract sacred source lifeforms.

If one’s soul was not strong enough, it was highly possible that the sacred source lifeforms would destroy one’s soul.

Lin Yuan had understood from the Moon Empress’s tone how precious sacred source lifeforms were and how dangerous it was to form contracts with them.

Lin Yuan did not know if he was blessed or cursed.

He never expected that the sacred source lifeforms’ method of contraction was forming blood contracts.

Because of the bloodied state of his hands when he had reached out for the sacred source lifeforms, the contract-forming process had immediately begun.

Lin Yuan could not deny how lucky he was.

Normally, people required the help of soul-nourishing spiritual ingredients to form a contract with a sacred source lifeform.

Yet, he started to contract two sacred source lifeforms without any soul-nourishing spirit ingredients. It was a disaster!

Lin Yuan could feel his soul silhouettes repeatedly being smashed under the power of the two sacred source lifeforms.

The agony of having his soul shattered could not even be compared to physical pain.

Just as the two sacred source lifeforms were about to destroy Lin Yuan’s soul, Lin Yuan lost consciousness.

At that moment, Morbius lit up again.

The light coming from Morbius was no longer creamy white, like when it was using Calm Mind, but rather a gold light that shone out of its body.

Initially, both the soul silhouettes and sacred source lifeforms in the depths of Lin Yuan’s soul refused to give in.

They fought ferociously like two lions clashing over territory. All they wanted was to take over Lin Yuan’s soul in order to complete the contract.

However, when the gold light lit up from within Morbius, the two glowing rainbow masses pulsed.

It was as though they had encountered something terrifying and were cowering in fright.
