Chapter 1602: Chapter 592: Ghostly Shadows Abound, Layers of Buildings Towering_2

The first cut, as if it were barely there.

The second cut, like falling into cotton.

Just as Luo Chen’s third cut fell, a bizarre event abruptly unfolded.

An extremely intense breath, in the blink of an eye, broke through the Array of the God Sealing Compass, shattering the azure Light Curtain.

"Senior..."

Luo Chen’s eyes widened as he exclaimed sharply.

However, before he could finish speaking, the final layer of black halo also broke open in a standoffish instant.

Quick!

Too quick!

An unmatched tyrannical breath, in a flash, penetrated Luo Chen’s defense, which he deemed impeccable, charging directly towards the Depth of the Sea of Conscience.

In that instance, Luo Chen felt as though he had fallen into an Abyss.

Spectral figures flitting about, towering structures looming!

"What place is this?"

In a daze, Luo Chen surveyed the illusory sights around him, his Divine Soul Endowment, which he had once considered powerful, now fragile as a newborn babe.

And in the next moment, within those looming towers, the bound countless ghostly shadows suddenly flew out, lunging towards Luo Chen’s Divine Soul.

"This is the end of me!"

This thought barely surfaced in Luo Chen’s mind when the next instant, he saw a beam of blue light vividly blossoming within his Sea of Consciousness.

"Luo Chen, wake up!"

Boom!

Within the reverberating cry, as if a giant bell had been struck, Luo Chen snapped out of his trance.

He was soaked in cold sweat, as though he had been fished out of water.

With his body trembling, he couldn’t help but ask: "What on earth was that?"

Outside the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, the Nascent Soul Small People of Han Zhan had already floated out.

At this moment, his shadowy figure also deeply furrowed its brow, uncertainly saying: "It should be caused by the master of this residual malignant Qi. However, what exactly is this entity, and how powerful it is, that just a wisp of malignant Qi could make a well-prepared Golden Core Cultivator feel as though plunged into an Abyss?"

"Senior, next time?"

Luo Chen tentatively said, slightly discouraged.

The Nascent Soul Small People glanced at Luo Chen, coldly speaking: "To forge iron, one must strike while it’s hot!"

Seeing Luo Chen frown, the Nascent Soul Small People sighed, forcing a small smile.

"Don’t be scared!"

"You’ve seen it yourself, although this malignant Qi carries a powerful spiritual influence, that Divine Soul Defense Magic Item of yours can block it for a moment."

"Plus, you have me by your side, a Nascent Soul True Master who has Mastery over Divine Soul Secret Arts, to ensure you won’t fall into that Illusion Realm."

"Once again, let’s try once more!"

Luo Chen smiled weakly and then fell silent, not saying a word.

Han Zhan didn’t urge him, just quietly waiting for Luo Chen’s response.

During this process, Han Zhan occasionally hovered near the Soul Nourishing Wood, observing the wisps of red mist stirred up from the dark wood.

After a long while, Luo Chen lightly nodded.

"Once more."

"Good!" Han Zhan’s face lit up with joy, "Rest assured, this time I will be prepared in advance to ensure you’re not too greatly affected."

"I hope so."

Luo Chen glanced at Han Zhan, then began to repeat his previous actions.

Although the Technique and Array from before seemed to accomplish little, he set them up again, even adding a few more layers of the Glass Sky Canopy.

Perhaps, they weren’t useless, just broken too swiftly?

Just like before, Luo Chen formed seals with his hands, mobilizing his Qi Power, executing the Slaying Dragon Technique.

This time, the malignant Qi from the Soul Nourishing Wood retaliated much quicker than before.

Spectral figures flitting about, towering structures looming.

The familiar scene emerged in Luo Chen’s mind.

The blue light, too, instantly spread, protecting Luo Chen as he emerged from the illusions.

"Again!"

"Mm."

"Again!"

"Let’s rest a bit."

"Let’s continue!"

"Senior, I think I’m starting to understand."

"Oh? Then let’s do it again!"

Day and night rotated, tides rose and fell.

Unnoticed, three days passed in the blink of an eye.

As the morning sun rose, Luo Chen finally delivered a palm strike into the air, causing the Soul Nourishing Wood to tremble slightly in the void.

Seeing this, Han Zhan’s face showed great delight.

"Did we succeed?"

Luo Chen replied wearily, "I suppose we succeeded."

"What do you mean ’suppose’?" Han Zhan asked surprised.

Luo Chen carefully explained: "While it seems to be only a wisp of malignant Qi, to me, it’s still far too vast and deeply rooted. I’ve only found the angle to unsettle it; to completely purge it, I still need a lengthy process of painstaking effort."

Han Zhan then realized the significance.

Though still impatient at heart, he consoled kindly: "It’s good if you’ve found a way. Take your time, I’m not in a hurry."

Luo Chen gave him a wry smile, which made the Nascent Soul Small People feel slightly embarrassed.

"Okay, I’m a little anxious after all."

"I’ll rest for a couple of days, and once I’ve recovered, we can continue. I’ll call for you then."

Having said that, Luo Chen did not wait for Han Zhan’s consent and lay down on the bed, drifting off to sleep with a peaceful breath.

Han Zhan, on the other hand, carefully stored away the Soul Nourishing Wood, his eyes filled with endless anticipation.

This was the most crucial step related to his remoulding the soul and rebuilding his cultivation.

Whether he could regain the Nascent Soul Realm altogether depended on it.

...

As time slowly passed, the giant ship ploughed through the waves speedily.

Half a year went by, and they were drawing ever closer to Giant Whale Port.

Had it not been for diversions to avoid the Great War between Good and Evil, they would have reached their destination much earlier, according to estimates.

Fortunately, nothing of note had happened along the way.

As the destination neared, the atmosphere on the ship grew increasingly tense.

Giant Whale Port was just a port; their actual destination was Divine Yuan City.

It was an immensely vast city, considered immensely large even among the Five Continents of the Mountain Sea Realm.

Compared with the Thirty-six Domains of the Eastern Wasteland, Divine Yuan City alone could match a Domain!
