Deep inside the Sea Domain of Nihility.
Clusters of ink-like clouds hovered quietly in the void. Mountains, lakes, and palaces hovered above the black sea of clouds. So many members of the Soul Clan were moving here and there. Ghosts and departed souls flashed and disappeared in the sky.
This place was the gathering place of the Soul Clan.
Above the boundless clouds, a pitch-black mountain range stretched out. In a pitch-black cave, malicious ghosts crawled on the ground, and suppressed roars could be heard coming from within.
Many members of the Soul Clan gathered by the cave, their faces dark and gloomy as they discussed.
"Sir Neptune is really unlucky this time. He's at the Territory Ancestor Realm, but he's hurt badly."
"I heard that Desolate, the Absolute Beginning creature, appeared on the seabed of the Sea of Annihilation. He overturned the situation and killed many Immortal Realm experts of the Sea of Annihilation."
"Isn't 'Desolation' rumored to be heavily injured and splitting apart?"
"What a coincidence! Desolate's three clones were all there on the seabed. After the three clones appeared, the energy they released was earth-shaking. Master Neptune was wounded and had to run away."
"Gosh, how intimidating is Desolate? It's just a combination of three clones and it could hurt Sir Neptune?"
Most of the members of the Soul Clan were at Incipient God Realm or Immortal Realm. They surrounded the cave and were in charge of protecting Neptune and waiting for his orders.
A thin figure gradually emerged from the sea of clouds in the distance. It was a handsome man with a feminine temperament. He looked to be in his thirties and wore a greyish-brown robe that was simple and unadorned.
Hunched over, Patriarch Earthly Ghoul followed behind him respectfully like a dog.
The members of the Soul Clan who were talking to him had their eyes filled with admiration when they saw him. They kneeled down and shouted in unison, "Welcome, Forefather Serene Prison!"
The handsome, feminine man wore an indifferent face. He nodded and walked into the cave.
Forefather Earth Ghoul followed him.
Inside the cave, billions of ghosts and souls hung upside down on the stone walls like bats. Neptune was naked inside the soul pond, his face ferocious. Sometimes, dazzling light shot out from his body. Every time the light flashed, Neptune screamed.
The soul pond was created by an ancient formation that used countless departed souls in this mountain range as the source of energy. The Soul Clan used it to heal the elders and commanders.
The handsome man walked into the cave and glanced at Neptune, sighing. "You're unlucky."
Neptune was bewildered. Seeing Serene Prison, he slightly bowed inside the soul pond to show his respect. Then, he said, "I didn't expect that Desolate's three clones would stay together. Because of the threat of my soul river, Desolate's consciousness hiding deep inside that kid's co-soul felt that something was wrong. It had used a strange technique to gather the three clones. It hurt me badly …"
Forefather Earth Ghoul had reported what had happened on the seabed to Serene Prison. Of course, Serene Prison knew about it. "How long do you need to recover?"
"How long do you need to recover?" "I don't know," Neptune grimaced. "That Light ball in my body is eroding my flesh. If I hadn't returned in time, I wouldn't have been able to keep this body. Without the help of the precious materials, I need at least three hundred years to recover. I lost the Soul Refining Cauldron too. My competence has been reduced greatly. "
"I'm here this time to give you a Territory Soul that our clan has been raising for many years. I hope that after you swallow it, you can recover fast and increase your power," said Serene Prison.
Neptune was shaken. "Why?"
The Territory Soul was a soul that the Soul Clan had hunted down and killed. They had used a secret technique to raise the soul to the Territory Ancestor Realm. It was used for the juniors to break through to the Territory Ancestor Realm. After the juniors at the Peak of Immortal Realm took in a Territory Soul, they could have a chance to use Dark Energy to become the Territory Ancestor Realm.
The Territory Soul was extremely precious. In the entire Soul Clan, there were only a few Territory Souls. Normally, unless the Territory Ancestor Realm was on the verge of death, they wouldn't give him a Territory Soul to recover.
Neptune felt strange because his condition wasn't that desperate yet. Although three hundred years was a long time to recover, it was just a blink of a finger to experts at their level.
It took at least several thousand years to raise a Territory Soul, maybe even longer.
Besides time, they also needed to provide souls to the Territory Soul unceasingly to help it grow. The value of a Territory Soul wasn't something that Neptune's three hundred years could compare to.
"The clan needs your power. If it were in the past, we wouldn't give you a Territory Soul. But now, the situation in the Sea Domain of Nihility isn't good. Within three hundred years, the war will break out. Thus, we must ensure that the clan is at its peak." Serene Prison wore a stern face. "After you take in this Territory Soul, not only will you recover, but you will also be stronger. That way, our clan will have the upper hand in the future war."
Neptune pondered for a while in the soul pond. Then, he bowed and lowered his voice. "I won't fail you."
Serene Prison nodded.
…
The Mysterious Sky Clan's territory.
It was a massive continent that had many ancient castles. Those castles were all grand and majestic.
Around the continent was a mysterious area of the Sea Domain of Nihility. A lot of drifting energy was attracted to that area. Many rocks were like stars in the sky, which hindered the battleships in this area.
Deep inside the continent was a sealed area. Only the real experts of the Mysterious Sky Clan could visit this place.
The sealed area was a vast valley. Inside the valley, there were dozens of shining realm entrances that led to different realms.
Those territories were the territories of the Mysterious Sky Clan. They were managed by the Mysterious Sky Clan.
At this moment, Tu Shi Qi, Ya Yun, Forefather Dragon Lizard, and dozens of elders of the Mysterious Sky Clan were gathered in this valley. They all wore solemn faces and gazed at one territory entrance.
That territory entrance was where Han Tian was cultivating.
Everybody kept silent, waiting for Han Tian to come back.
After an unknown time, the territory entrance sparkled with yellow light. A muscular old man with hair that looked like a bird's nest walked out of the territory entrance. His face glowed with red light. He wore coarse hemp garments and was barefooted. He stood at the entrance and looked at everybody.
"Are you and your wife the fellows in the Sea of Annihilation?" He looked at Tu Shi Qi and Ya Yun.
The two nodded hurriedly.
Han Tian sighed. "Ling Mei's talented, but she's too cunning. I knew she would have a disaster, but I didn't think that it would come so soon."
Everybody stooped and didn't dare to talk.
"Are you sure that Shi Yan is Bloodthirsty's disciple? That giant shadow that appeared at the last moment was created by Desolate's three clones? "He looked at Tu Shi Qi.
Tu Shi Qi nodded. "Shi Yan cultivates the Death and Devouring power Upanishads. It's okay if he cultivates the Death power Upanishad, but the Devouring power Upanishad … According to you, only Bloodthirsty has it. He should be his successor. The giant shadow that appeared in Shi Yan and the other two warriors of Desolate Territory should be Desolate. Dragon Lizard can feel the unique aura of an Absolute Beginning creature …"
Han Tian pondered for a few seconds. "Bloodthirsty is much more dangerous than you think. If he's still in this world, he alone can stir up the entire Sea Domain of Nihility. Desolate … should still be in a split state. We know it from the fact that it's in the three bodies. It seems like the situation in Desolate Territory is really complicated."
"Forefather, what should we do now?" Tu Shi Qi asked respectfully.
"Find the entrance to Desolate Territory. We should find it first. Otherwise, we shouldn't do anything else," Han Tian said. Then, he shook his head and sighed. "Be careful. I can feel that the war between the seven clans in the Sea Domain of Nihility will break out soon. The one of the Phantom Clan is enraged because of Mei Ji. She has stirred up the entire Sea of Annihilation. Hiro has come to the Sea of Annihilation personally to pick up the two precursors of his clan. It's lucky that they haven't woken up yet. Otherwise, it would be more troublesome …"
"Understood."
"Understood."
"Understood."
…
Sea of Annihilation …
Massive skull islands were moving slowly above the sea. The little skeleton was sitting cross-legged on one of the skull islands.
Two coffins were next to him. His parents were in the coffins. He was guarding them, not moving an inch.
Hiro of the White Bone Clan was a little reluctant. "Let's get back to our clan first. We will think about it. Eventually, we will find another expert cultivating Life power Upanishad."
"Shi Yan has the Life Original Symbol. He's the best candidate, right?" asked the little skeleton.
"Yeah, he's the best candidate. — — If we can find him," Hiro's eyes were gloomy. "I was one step late. When I got there, everything was over. I've searched the seabed of the Sea of Annihilation for a long time but I couldn't find the entrance to Desolate Territory. Anyway, I've asked my clan to search for all the entrances in the Sea of Annihilation. Once I get the news, I will deal with it personally."
"Are they all searching for the entrance to Desolate Territory?" asked the little skeleton.
"Yeah, the members of the seven clans are searching for the entrance to Desolate Territory. Once they find it, many experts will go to Desolate Territory," nodded Hiro.
The little skeleton kept silent.
…
In a beautiful broken star field in the Sea Domain of Nihility …
Pieces of broken stars piled up like crystals, forming a huge, sparkling, and translucent continent. On that shining continent, hundreds of flowers bloomed, ancient trees provided shade, rivers contained astonishing spirit energy, and rare birds lived on the mountains and rivers.
Many exquisite ancient buildings decorated this continent. Handsome men and beautiful women walked on the continent, riding big birds and flying carriages.
On a small island on this continent …
Mei Ji was sleeping inside a massive yellow crystal. That crystal had many colorful lights moving inside it. Those lights were filled with surging energy that entered Mei Ji's body.
After an unknown time …
Mei Ji opened her eyes and looked around hazily. Gradually, her vision cleared up. She knew she was home.
Then, her Soul Consciousness flickered. She found that the energy she had lost in her body had returned. Dark Energy murmured in her Sea of Consciousness. Even her icy Incipient Extent was transforming quietly. It was expanding endlessly.
She knew that she was just one step away from the Territory Ancestor Realm. She just needed to calm her mind and finish the transformation of her Incipient Extent. Then, she could break through to the Territory Ancestor Realm.
She remembered the little girl before she fell asleep. She gratefully mumbled, "Thank you, Grannie."
