Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?-Chapter 366 - 308: The Soul-Lost Girl
Upon hearing that You Li was in trouble, Han Yu immediately associated it with that piece of Dragon Blood Stone.
Despite repeatedly warning her, that thick-browed beauty still refused to heed and attempted it.
Seeing her current speed in escaping, which is beyond what the Divine Gaze Realm possesses, she likely not only used it but used it extensively, allowing such rapid advancement in a short time.
"Her power is approaching the Realm of Transcendence, which is definitely not a good thing; her Seven Souls are still here."
"If the Seven Souls cannot be returned quickly, once she steps into the Realm of Transcendence, achieving a flawless state, the Seven Souls won’t be able to return, and she will surely die."
Indeed, the fundamental and most crucial difference between the Divine Gaze Realm and the Realm of Transcendence lies here.
A flawless body indicates that you are shedding your mortal form, and your body is undergoing a fundamental transformation.
It is precisely because of this transformation that True Essence can completely transform, turning into Spiritual Power.
Another advantage of a flawless body is stabilizing the Three Souls and Seven Souls, making them indelible and immutable, unable to be driven away by any means, even if someone else tries, they can harm but not take them.
This is originally a good thing, but here it’s rather unfortunate. Once You Li escapes, transcends first, then with her flawless state, the Seven Souls can’t be forced back in.
The Great Elder wore a grim expression, never expecting things to become so complicated, originally only concerned about the Seven Souls leaving the body.
But who would have thought that during the pursuit, You Li’s realm barrier would start loosening.
At any other time, this would have been a joyous occasion for the entire Sect.
But this damn situation isn’t normal.
Had this been known, he wouldn’t have come alone.
Han Yu also realized the severity of the situation and chased out without a word.
The Great Elder helplessly dragged along the Seven Souls to follow, but his pace was too slow, the distance between them growing.
At this moment, You Li’s state changed again; the deep red energy, initially fused with True Essence and circulating within her body.
Now, however, this foreign energy was showing signs of usurping dominance.
The crimson energy gradually overpowered True Essence, and her flesh suddenly shone bright red.
"Damn!"
When Han Yu caught up, he had a premonition of disaster; this color was almost identical to the interior of the Dragon Blood Stone.
In pursuit, You Li’s speed kept increasing, now matching that of a Transcendent Realm Cultivator.
Not daring to delay, he exploded with energy, reaching an extreme speed, catching up to her in a few breaths.
"You Li, stop."
Han Yu attempted to awaken her.
"Shut up, if you keep chasing, I’m not going to be polite."
You Li spat back fiercely, glancing behind.
Han Yu shook his head, preparing for a forceful interception.
Suddenly, You Li underwent another change, her figure flickering, gradually leaving behind afterimages.
Han Yu rubbed his eyes, fearing he was seeing things, and the afterimages became vivid, materializing into an identical You Li.
Damn!
What is this?
"Keep chasing, quickly, that’s her Celestial Soul. She’s even shaking loose her Three Souls now."
When the Great Elder caught up, seeing the dislodged soul, his whole demeanor changed negatively.
This was utter madness, even abandoning her soul.
If this continues, she might not even survive to Breaking Realm before dying.
Han Yu nodded, immediately smashing through the air.
The Celestial Soul seemed bewildered, glanced around, and upon spotting the Great Elder, fled in panic.
This is truly sinful!
The Great Elder felt breathless in frustration, as the Sect’s most outstanding disciple was causing chaos, impossible for him to manage, and upon seeing him, the Celestial Soul fled, further disheartening him.
No sense of closeness?
Reluctantly reaching out into the void, he pulled, dragging along the Seven-headed Giant Ape, chasing the Celestial Soul.
Realizing even the Celestial Soul moved faster than him, a feeling of fatigue welled up from his heart.
"Uncle!"
Three streaks of light swiftly flashed near; it was several Sect Elders catching up, including the previous Fourth Elder, along with two relatively younger newcomers, the Seventh and Ninth Elders, though about half a century old.
After the greetings, the Great Elder finally looked relieved.
After a few brief instructions, he handed the Seven-headed Giant Ape to the Ninth Elder.
"You follow slowly with it."
"You two chase the Celestial Soul, I’ll go after the girl."
With one last set of instructions, he hurriedly pursued.
Meanwhile, Han Yu was again caught in a dilemma.
Despite his relentless pursuit, easily catching up, before any action, You Li threw another soul at him.
"I’ve never seen anyone this reckless."
Even the Artifact Spirit couldn’t bear it, seeing the Three Souls and Seven Souls; having already expelled both the Celestial and Earth Souls, only holding onto the Life Soul.
No amount of lifespan suffices for such squandering.
Once the Earth Soul emerged, it looked this way and that, then suddenly grinned and joyfully flew towards the distance.
"What should I do now?"
Han Yu was stumped, which to pursue?
"Both must be chased, losing the Earth Soul would be irrecoverable, losing her makes her hard to find too."
The Artifact Spirit spoke gravely.
This isn’t realistic—if both could be chased, why even question it!
"You chase the girl, I’ll handle the Earth Soul."
In his moment of indecision, Nanli Grand Elder rushed in.
Fishing Village.
The place was already devoid of vitality.
The small hamlet was barren of any living creature, and the surrounding area appeared desolately gray.
In the sea domain within five miles of the village, all the water appeared chalky, where closer inspection revealed countless fish belly-up and withered.
Soon, a wave rose from the sea, hitting the shore, and as the seawater receded, a rigid body stood there in a daze.
Ox!
Its swollen body now unrecognizable, compelled by instinct, it had fiercely absorbed every bit of life it could from the sea.
Unfortunately, the yield was minimal, and as it slightly opened its mouth, a glob of black Divine Technique monster slowly trickled to the ground, forming only a millstone-sized creature.
Suddenly, the monster revealed a maw filled with sharp teeth, agitated beyond belief.
Its ever-twisting body signaled a pressing urgency.
Just then, a streak of light flickered overhead, and the monster instantly turned thread-like, flew onto Ox’s face, and rapidly crawled back into its mouth, disappearing into a shadowy place.
You Li showed no emotion on her face anymore; devoid of expression, driven solely by instinct on this frantic escape.
No need to await pursuers; her Life Soul was already barely controllable.
The crimson energy surging within her took dominance step by step, causing various changes.
When it first showed its prominence, it gradually expelled the Seven Souls from her body; initially, You Li believed the Dragon Blood Stone was aiding her in subduing turmoil, whereas in reality, the Seven Souls were continually evading this force.
As this foreign energy grew stronger, it revealed a formidable exclusivity.
At this point, You Li’s Seven Souls had nowhere to hide, amidst constant expulsion and rejection, her personality drastically altered, becoming aggressive and irritable.
The visualization of the Seven-headed Giant Ape meant the Seven Souls were entirely driven out.
Next were the Three Souls.
Now with two of the Three Souls gone, only the Life Soul remained.
If the Life Soul were removed, she would be indistinguishable from the dead.
Remaining would merely be an empty shell.
Landing, You Li expressionlessly surveyed her surroundings, her face twitching in spasms.
"Ah..."
As the final soul, vitally important, its removal came with excruciating pain.
In her unconsciousness, You Li emitted a primal wail...
