The Negative Karma Flames in the Eye of the Holy Hell King bloomed like a lotus flower. Invisible negative karma flames surged out like layers of petals that enveloped Zhou Wen's body.
Outsiders only saw Zhou Wen floating in midair and couldn't see the invisible negative karma flames on his body, but they could sense that Zhou Wen's aura was constantly rising.
When the aura reached its peak, Zhou Wen's body underwent a tremendous change. The Holy Hell King Life Soul completed its final evolution in the negative karma flames.
Instantly, Zhou Wen felt as though his entire body had entered a higher dimension, separated from reality.
The real world became extremely filthy in his eyes, like a junkyard. However, his body remained untainted in such an environment.
As the negative karma flames in the Eye of the Holy Hell King were expended, the Eye of the Holy Hell King gradually closed and vanished.
When Buddha closes his eyes, there will be no more pure land in the world. The life in the filthy world will be abandoned by Buddha and the final purification will descend.
Looking at the filthy world in front of him, Zhou Wen seemed to come to a realization. Although the Eye of the Holy Hell King was closed, his eyes didn't close. Nor did he completely sever himself from reality. Instead, he allowed himself to return to the world.
The process of condensing a Life Soul wasn't only related to talent, bloodline, and Essence Energy Art. It was also related to a person's concept and insights. No two people's Life Souls were identical because everyone's thoughts were different. It was impossible for them to be completely the same.
If Zhou Wen had been bent on escaping this filthy world, the Holy Hell King Life Soul would have evolved in the direction of a sage and eventually become a Buddha or a god.
However, Zhou Wen didn't have the thought of transcending. Instead, he entered the filthy world, so the Holy Hell King Life Soul evolved in another direction.
Li Mobai and company looked at Zhou Wen in midair. They originally felt that Zhou Wen's body emitted a holy pressure, as though he was a reincarnated Buddha.
However, in the blink of an eye, Zhou Wen's entire body turned dim. It was as though a Perfected Immortal had been struck down to the mortal world, turning into a mortal. They could no longer sense the otherworldly aura from him. It was as though he was an extremely ordinary youth.
Zhou Wen landed on the ground and stretched his back. He picked up the Essence Energy Skill Crystal that the Hell Butterfly dropped and asked Li Mobai and company, "There's only one crystal. How do we split it?"
"I'm only here for the Guardian cocoon. I don't want anything else," Li Mobai said.
Gu Shanshui also shook his head and said, "I only hope that you can help me capture the Corpse Bug after this matter is over. These things are useless to me."
"In that case, I'll accept this Primordial Energy Skill Crystal." Zhou Wen didn't stand on ceremony as he took the crystal.
Everyone continued on their way. The Flowers of Life in the Flower River had all withered, and the originally beautiful Flower River had become a barren land. There were no living creatures at all, and this allowed them to advance much faster.
While rushing, Zhou Wen took out his phone to take a look. Indeed, he realized that the Holy Hell King Life Soul had evolved again and become a Perfect Body.
However, to Zhou Wen's disappointment, the Constitution attribute that corresponded to the Holy Hell King Life Soul remained at 40 points. It didn't increase to 41 points.
This was the same as the advancement of the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder. The corresponding Essence Energy stat didn't advance to 41. It remained at 40.
My Life Soul has advanced to a Perfect Body, but my stats still haven't reached 41. How can I advance my stats? Zhou Wen was somewhat vexed.
He had been looking forward to it for so long. His Life Soul had advanced to a Perfect Body, but his stats hadn't increased. This meant that his chances of advancing to the Mythical stage by himself were still very slim.
However, on second thought, Xia Jiuhuang had used the power of nine Life Providences and Life Souls. He had also absorbed the life essence of more than ten thousand Epic experts. With the help of lightning, he had advanced to the Mythical stage as a human. It didn't seem reasonable for him to advance to the Mythical stage with just four Perfect Body Life Souls.
With this in mind, Zhou Wen's heart suddenly stirred. Xia Jiuhuang used nine Life Providences and Life Souls to advance to the Mythical stage. Does that mean that Life Souls and Life Providences are still helpful in advancing to the Mythical stage? I didn't take the wrong path. It's just that a single Life Soul isn't enough to break through the restrictions of stats?
Zhou Wen thought of his Dao Sutra and the First Order of Chaos. The two were very similar. They both strengthened his Essence Energy stat.
If I advance the Chaos Egg Life Soul, which also strengthens my Essence Energy, to a Perfect Body and augment my Essence Energy stat with the two Life Souls, will I be able to break through to 41 points? With this in mind, Zhou Wen felt hope.
Feeling much better, Zhou Wen carefully looked at the newly advanced Perfect Body Life Soul.
Supreme Hell King (Perfect Body): A supreme existence in hell, the last faith of the source of evil.
Zhou Wen could sense that Supreme Hell King was clearly different from the Holy Hell King. Without the Eye of the Holy Hell King, he didn't have the supreme authority of the Holy Hell King.
The current Supreme Hell King Life Soul made Zhou Wen feel like he truly belonged to hell. He could enter it with his body, not just through the Eye of the Holy Hell King.
However, Zhou Wen had yet to try what would happen if he really used the Supreme Hell King Life Soul to enter hell.
Zhou Wen planned on finding an opportunity to give it a try in-game. In reality, it was best not to rashly attempt it.
Even if he didn't enter hell, the strengthening of Supreme Hell King's senses wasn't something that the Holy Hell King could match. With the Supreme Hell King Life Soul augmenting him, Zhou Wen's senses were already terrifyingly strong.
However, there were also disadvantages to this. Under such sharp senses, no matter what his eyes saw, he felt extremely dirty. It was as though he was in a garbage dump. It was unbearable.
If it wasn't necessary, Zhou Wen usually wasn't willing to activate the Supreme Hell King Life Soul.
Before long, the group crossed the Flower River and arrived near the legendary Valley of No Return. The Guardian cocoon that Li Mobai mentioned wasn't in the Valley of No Return, but they had to pass through it.
Back then, in order to refine the Evil King Gu Life Soul, Li Mobai had accidentally fallen into a stone cave in the Valley of No Return when he was chasing a Gu King. Furthermore, he followed the stone cave through the Valley of No Return and arrived in an underground cave behind the Valley of No Return. It was there that he discovered the Guardian cocoon.
Now, Li Mobai led Zhou Wen and company through the underground tunnel again. They circled around the Valley of No Return that everyone in the South District paled at the mention of and arrived at an underground cave.
Indeed, they saw a Guardian cocoon. The cocoon was gray and emitted an evil aura. It was different from any Guardian Zhou Wen had seen before.
"We can't go any further. There's a terrifying Mythical creature guarding it." Li Mobai pointed to the side of the gray cocoon.
Zhou Wen and company looked over and saw a calabash vine growing there.
