Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1045: The Soul-suppressing Beast’s Reincarnation

Yet he still refused to give up, but in the next moment, Feng Liyan was completely hopeless.

By the Forgetful River, lay something larger than any Ancient Fierce Beast, resting quietly with its eyes closed.

It lay there silently, without any movement, and its massive body and powerful dark aura were enough to inspire fear and keep people at bay.

Even through the mirror’s surface, Feng Liyan could feel the immense intimidation emanating from that entity.

Feng Liyan thought that if that being had its eyes open at this moment, he would not dare to scrutinize it so brazenly.

It was precisely because of the presence of this entity that countless malicious spirits and wrongful ghosts along the Forgetful River did not dare make a sound, and the river’s surface was eerily calm.

Soul-suppressing Beast!

He was indeed the reincarnation of the Soul-suppressing Beast.

Feng Liyan’s eyes were glued to the mirror, his eyes heated, and his hands clasped tightly together, as a storm of emotions surged within him.

From initial shock and disbelief to a current state of panic and unsettlement, Feng Liyan was utterly lost, his mind in a daze.

The Soul-suppressing Beast was a presence in the Netherworld more powerful and significant than the King of the Netherworld.

No, it wasn’t just more powerful than the Netherworld King—his father told him that this entity’s strength far surpassed even that of the Demon Lord Nie Jiuque, able to crack mountains and tear the Earth with a mere gesture, making heaven and earth tremble and discolor in its wrath.

It had lived for at least tens of thousands of years, unmatched by any opponent in the Six Realms.

The reason why it and the Demon Lord, who was far weaker, ended up in mutual destruction a thousand years ago remained a mystery to all.

It was probably the victim of a villain’s scheme.

The Soul-suppressing Beast was neither an Ancient Divine Beast nor a Fierce Beast, nor was it truly a beast.

According to historical records, this entity naturally came into being from all the darkness between earth, nurtured in the Earth’s darkest places for tens of thousands of years, growing by absorbing the wrath and grievances of malicious spirits and wrongful ghosts.

Simultaneously, it weakened the hostility of these malicious spirits and wrongful ghosts, helping them to reincarnate more smoothly.

It had no name, and no one knew exactly how long it had lived; tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years were possible. Since its manifestation, it had resided in the Underworld, never taking a single step out.

For whether human, demon, or immortal, their souls would come here after death, making the Underworld its perfect training ground.

At that time, the Underworld was just the Underworld, not yet the Netherworld.

Back then, Demon Beasts ran rampant, the world was chaotic, and only the Underworld was safe.

Perhaps because it was born of the Earth’s darkness, it took on this responsibility.

In truth, it was the first King of the Netherworld, the true ruler of the Netherworld.

It simply did not compete with others, only desiring to reside in the Underworld, training and sleeping in peace. So, after the division of the Six Realms, it personally selected a King of the Netherworld to manage it on its behalf.

Each King of the Netherworld was as powerful as the Heavenly Emperor, Demon Lord, or Demon King, so for tens of thousands of years, there was almost nothing that required it to personally step in.

As a result, many descendants didn’t even know of its existence in the Netherworld.

Because of its presence, the Netherworld remained more stable than the other Five Realms for tens of thousands of years.

The name Soul-suppressing Beast originated from this.

Until a thousand years ago, when the Demon Lord Nie Jiuque stormed the Netherworld with his army to reunite the soul fragments of Immortal Shang Ying, breaking that silence.

Nie Jiuque came with such force that not even the Netherworld King could stop him.

Just as Nie Jiuque was about to forcibly reunite the soul fragments of Immortal Shang Ying, the Soul-suppressing Beast, who had slumbered for tens of thousands of years, intervened.

Resurrection defies heaven, and it had no choice but to get involved.

However, the matter was not beyond negotiation; it was only that the stubborn elders from the Immortal Realm arrived, fanning the flames, and Nie Jiuque, obsessed with Immortal Shang Ying, lost his composure, leading to the situation escalating out of control.

Thus, the war erupted.
