Mo Wen had not expected that he would actually encounter a Dragon Bloodline monstrous beast like the Red Scaled Earth Dragon. Compared to the huge Devil Clan, monstrous beasts with the bloodline of the Dragon Clan were still very rare.
However, that Beast King seemed to be a descendant of the Red Scaled Earth Dragon. Its bloodline inheritance level was very low, so it couldn't be considered a real Red Scaled Earth Dragon. Otherwise, with the Beast King's cultivation, he would have already succeeded in becoming a demon.
Mo Wen cautiously walked towards the white jade treasure box in the middle of the altar. He did not know what was so strange about this altar. Right now, he could only take it one step at a time.
Based on Mo Wen's experience, the Beast King had indeed suffered serious injuries and was in a deep slumber.
Under such circumstances, as long as the Beast King's life was not threatened, it would usually not wake up.
If the danger inside the altar did not come from the Beast King, then what was it?
For a moment, Mo Wen was also a little puzzled.
When he was within fifty meters of the white jade treasure box, suddenly, a terrifying beast roar sounded. The roar shook Mo Wen so much that he felt dizzy. He subconsciously took a step back.
The Beast King is awake?
His expression changed drastically, and he suddenly looked towards the Beast King. He saw that the Beast King's body was glowing with a red light. The red light set off the crimson scales of the Beast King, making it look rather bright.
A ball of flames quietly flew out from the Beast King's head. It was a ball of blazing flames the size of a washbasin. Wrapped in the flames was an ever-changing silhouette. It was a shrunken phantom of a demonic beast. It was only the size of a palm, but it emitted terrifying energy waves.
Scarlet Scaled Earth Dragon!
Mo Wen's pupils shrank. He could tell at a glance that it was a miniature version of the Beast King. It was exactly the same as the Red Scaled Earth Dragon on the ground.
In other words, it was the soul of a Red-Scaled Earth Dragon, a Beast King's soul form.
Only immortal cultivators in the Primordial Soul Realm could transform their souls and release their bodies. Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster did not have this ability. The Immortal Cultivators of the Primordial Soul realm cultivated their souls into Primordial Spirits. Only then could the primordial spirit leave the body.
Otherwise, if one's cultivation wasn't high enough, one's soul would be destroyed if they forced it out of their body. Never to reincarnate.
Logically speaking, in the Demon Realm, only the Demon Clan had the ability to have their Demon Soul leave their body. Even a Beast King Demon Beast couldn't do it.
How did this Scarlet Scaled Earth Dragon do it?
Mo Wen was certain. The Scarlet Scaled Earth Dragon in front of him was not a member of the Demon Race. It only had the cultivation of a Beast King.
Roar!
The Beast King's Demon Soul slowly floated out. Then, it raised its head to the sky and roared. Red light shone brightly, and the fist-sized Demon Soul suddenly grew bigger, turning into a huge Scarlet Scaled Earth Dragon. Although it could not be compared to the main body, it was still one-third the size of the main body.
Waves of majestic soul aura continuously emanated from the Red Scaled Earth Dragon Beast's Demonic Soul. The soul power, which was almost tangible, caused even Mo Wen to be shocked.
Mo Wen's soul power was not low. But compared to this Red Scaled Earth Dragon, it paled in comparison.
An out-of-body experience. So that's what it was.
Right now, Mo Wen finally understood what dangers lurked within the altar.
The Demonic Soul of the Beast King! Although it was not a complete Beast King, a Beast King's Demonic Soul that could appear in three dimensions was still a fatal threat to ordinary warriors.
It was no wonder that Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan had been defeated so quickly. Furthermore, their souls had been severely injured and they had fallen unconscious.
Perhaps after they barged into the altar, they would not be able to escape. He encountered the terrifying Beast King Demon Soul and almost died at the hands of the Beast King Demon Soul.
The Beast King couldn't wake up because it was heavily injured, but it could leave its body to intercept the enemy. This was most likely the last hurdle of the task.
Although Mo Wen did not know what the Beast King had used to allow its Demon Soul to leave its body, his expression now relaxed.
The Beast King's Demon Soul was, of course, rather terrifying to ordinary warriors. It was far more threatening than the three Lord Monstrous Beasts. This kind of soul attack attacked the soul the moment it attacked. It was practically impossible to defend against. If one's soul was not strong enough, it was very easy to be severely injured.
However, Mo Wen smiled relaxedly. His cultivation might not be high, but his soul power was not lower than that of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Even some ordinary Martial Arts Grandmasters could not compare to him. Although it was not as powerful as the Earth Dragon Demon Soul in front of him, it would not be easy for the Beast King's Demon Soul to do anything to him.
Roar!
The Beast King Demon Soul twisted. Then, its red crystal-like eyes released two beams of enchanting red light that suddenly shone on Mo Wen's body.
Two masses of golden light appeared in Mo Wen's eyes. The golden light was like two suns. Mo Wen merely blinked his eyes, and it was as if nothing had happened. The Soul Ray released by the Beast King Demon Soul was still unable to pose a threat to him.
The Beast King Demon Soul clearly had not expected that its Soul Ray would actually be useless against a human warrior. Wasn't his cultivation only at the later stage of the Golden Elixir Realm? How could he possibly block its soul attack?
A look of doubt flashed in the eyes of the Beast King Demon Soul. When it reached the level of a Beast King, not only was its intelligence not lower than that of humans, but it could also speak the human language and communicate with humans. As for those from the Devil Clan who were a step further, they could even transform into human form. After transforming, they looked no different from humans on the surface.
Mo Wen ignored the Beast King Demon Soul. After confirming that the Beast King Demon Soul was unable to threaten him, he boldly walked towards the white jade treasure box in the middle of the altar. As long as he took the white jade treasure box, his task this time would be completely completed.
"Roar! Damned human, you covet my treasure. You deserve to die! "
The Beast King Demon Soul had not expected that this human warrior would actually ignore it and walk towards its treasure on his own.
It was simply unbearable. The Beast King was furious. With a flash of red light, it pounced towards Mo Wen. It wanted to kill this human's soul and then hang his corpse in front of the city gate.
Humph!
Mo Wen coldly snorted. His eyes shone with golden light. A formless ripple instantly spread out with him as the center.
With Mo Wen's current cultivation, the soul attack power of the Divine Soul Trillion Layers could even slightly disrupt a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Against a soul body like the Beast King Demon Soul, its power was naturally even greater.
The formless ripple collided with the Beast King Demon Soul. The figure of the Beast King Demon Soul trembled and suddenly stopped, unable to pounce towards Mo Wen.
Right now, Mo Wen had already walked in front of the white jade treasure box. He extended his hand and grabbed the white jade treasure box. The white beam of light from the technique gradually dimmed and then slowly disappeared.
"How dare you! Put down my treasure!"
When the Beast King Demon Soul saw that its treasure had landed in someone else's hands, it immediately became anxious. Its eyes were red and masses of frightening soul power emanated from its body. The frightening aura was enough to suppress a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
"I will kill you, you bandit."
Roar!
The Beast King Demon Soul let out a shrill roar. The next moment, its figure had already appeared in front of Mo Wen. Beams of red light flashed continuously. It was like a resplendent sun.
A formless ripple emanated from Mo Wen's body. He had originally wanted to use the Divine Soul Trillion Layers to send the Beast King Demon Soul flying again.
However, the Beast King Demon Soul had unleashed some unknown power and actually only paused for a moment. Then, it broke through Mo Wen's soul attack and pounced on Mo Wen.
Mo Wen's figure trembled and his expression immediately turned serious.
The Beast King Demon Soul did not have a physical body. Once it pounced on Mo Wen, it burrowed into his body and charged towards his declarative memory.
Once the Beast King Demon Soul controlled the declarative memory, Mo Wen's entire body would be controlled by the Beast King.
If it was an ordinary ancient martial art practitioner, they would almost certainly die at this moment. This was because when an external soul entered one's body, only a similar soul power could withstand it.
The soul power of a Beast King was so powerful that ordinary ancient martial art practitioners would naturally not be able to withstand it.
However, Mo Wen's soul power had already exceeded the scope of ordinary people's understanding. Moreover, he had also cultivated a Primordial Spirit secret technique like the Divine Soul Trillion Layers.
Just as Mo Wen was preparing to use his declarative memory as a battlefield and have a good battle with the Beast King Demon Soul, something unexpected suddenly happened.
The Beast King Demon Soul had just charged into Mo Wen's declarative memory and had yet to find the essence of Mo Wen's soul when an azure sun suddenly rose from the vast declarative memory.
The azure sun released a brilliant light that illuminated the entire declarative memory. At the same time, it also enveloped the Beast King Demon Soul.
A vast and boundless Soul Power poured down and instantly enveloped the Beast King's Monster Soul.
The Beast King Demon Soul that was flying at high speed instantly froze, unable to move at all.
It was as though it had been hit by a Body Fixing Spell, or perhaps it had instantly turned into an ice sculpture. The expression on the Beast King Demon Soul's face froze.
"No … no …"
The Beast King Demon Soul's eyes were filled with terror as it screamed hysterically. It continuously tried to struggle, but it could not move at all.
The azure light descended and swept past the body of the Beast King Demon Soul. The Beast King Demon Soul shattered inch by inch, turning into specks of light that dissipated in the boundless declarative memory.
A golden light flashed and Mo Wen's soul appeared in the vast declarative memory. He looked at the body of the Beast King Demon Soul that was slowly dispersing. His face revealed an expression that he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
The Primordial Soul Pearl!
The azure sun was the Primordial Soul Pearl that Ji Wuya had passed on to him not long ago in the Devil's Heart Palace.
The Primordial Soul Pearl contained Ji Wuya's inheritance and the power of his Primordial Soul. It had always been hidden in Mo Wen's declarative memory. Before this, although Mo Wen had passed Ji Wuya's test and obtained his inheritance, he had only inherited a little bit of alchemy knowledge. It could even be said that he had not obtained Ji Wuya's true inheritance at all. At most, he had only learned a little bit of the technique.
That was because with his current cultivation, he could not come into contact with things at Ji Wuya's level. The alchemy techniques that he had learned from Ji Wuya were only the basics and only scratched the surface.
The Primordial Soul Pearl contained the power of Ji Wuya's Primordial Soul. Since it had acknowledged Mo Wen, it would protect Mo Wen's declarative memory. The Beast King Demon Soul that had barged into Mo Wen's declarative memory could be said to have met with great misfortune. It was seeking its own death.
However, Mo Wen had not expected that the illusionary beast's Beast King Soul would actually cause the Primordial Soul Pearl to attack. Could it be that the life created by the Tower Spirit had already reached the stage where it could pass off the fake as the real one?
After the Beast King Demon Soul dissipated, Mo Wen felt that his declarative memory had become much more substantial. Even his soul had received great benefits. It was as though he had absorbed the soul of a Beast King. He felt that his soul power had increased by a large margin. (To be continued.)
