Faced with this pressure, which was several times stronger than before, Yao Chen gritted his teeth and supported his body with his strong willpower, stubbornly standing in front of Hei Wuchang.
Looking at the Black Impermanence, the god of the underworld who exuded an unimaginably powerful aura and seemed invincible, Yao Chen repeated his previous words with a firm tone.
"Give me back my junior sister's soul!"
Thank you to ~Call Me Xuanbi King~ for the donation!

Chapter 108 River of Souls
"Hmph! Nonsense! Are you looking for death?!"
Black Impermanence forcefully flung his left hand, which was shrouded in his long sleeves, toward Yao Chen in front of him.
Locked in place by the powerful pressure emanating from the black body, unable to move at all, Yao Chen was immediately struck by an invisible force.
"boom!"
Although Hei Wuchang's attack was not intended to kill Yao Chen, Yao Chen was still sent flying into the wall behind him, leaving a spiderweb-like crack on the wall.
"puff!"
A large mouthful of bright red blood spurted from the medicine's mouth.
Looking at Yao Chen, who was coughing up blood and was already seriously injured, Black Impermanence turned around again to leave.
Just as Hei Wuchang turned around, Yao Chen struggled to his feet, and a layer of eerily white flames began to burn on his body.
This eerily white flame was the strange fire that Yao Chen possessed in his previous life, the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, ranked eleventh on the Strange Fire Ranking of the Dou Qi Continent.
"Give me back my junior sister's soul!"
With a roar from Yao Chen, the bone spirit cold fire burning on his body, along with his incomparably powerful soul force, attacked the Black Impermanence in front of him.
With Yao Chen's soul power, even a powerful expert who had already reached the fourth level of the extraordinary realm would be severely injured by his all-out attack.
Just as the powerful soul attack, burning with bone spirit cold fire, was about to approach Hei Wuchang, Yao Chen's attack stopped in mid-air as Hei Wuchang's body paused slightly.
Black Impermanence slowly turned around, and with a gentle stroke of his hand, the incredibly powerful soul impact was wiped out from mid-air.
"snort!"
After the soul impact was erased, Yao Chen, whose soul suffered a strong backlash, let out a muffled groan.
After the soul attack backfired, Yao Chen's face turned deathly pale, and blood began to flow from his eyes, nostrils, and other seven orifices.
Black Impermanence slowly extended his hand, grasped Yao Chen with a clenched fist, and then forcefully squeezed Yao Chen.
Yao Chen immediately felt a tremendous force lock onto him, slowly lifting him into the air.
As the force locking onto him grew stronger and stronger, Yao Chen could feel that his bones were about to be crushed by this inexplicable power.
"Hmph! You really are asking for death! Just wait until I send your soul to the eighteenth level of hell, where you will suffer endless torment."
Black Impermanence looked at Yao Chen in front of him and said fiercely.
Just as Hei Wuchang was about to use force to crush the medicine dust in his hand, a voice entered Hei Wuchang's mind, causing him to stop his actions.
Yao Chen, who had closed his eyes and was quietly waiting for his death, suddenly opened his eyes in surprise and looked at Hei Wuchang, who had released his hands and placed him back on the ground.
"Kid, you're lucky. The Great Emperor just said that because you made a contribution to opening up the path of alchemy, you possess immense merit."
"The Emperor said that if you are willing to spend 30% of all your merits, he can arrange for your junior sister's soul to be reincarnated into your Pill Tower."
"And with some of your merits protecting her, your junior sister will not only be incredibly talented after her reincarnation, but she will also awaken her memories of her previous life when she is 16 years old."
"The Great Emperor asked you if you were willing to use your merits to protect your senior sister through the cycle of reincarnation."
After saying this with hatred, Hei Wuchang looked at Yao Chen, this ant who dared to attack him, with great hostility.
"this……"
Upon hearing this news, Yao Chen, whose heart had been filled with despair, suddenly became overjoyed.
He stared intently at the Black and White Impermanence, and asked incredulously, "Is this true?"
"Nonsense! Of course it's true. Would I, a god, falsely convey the Emperor's words just to deceive you? You may not care about your life, but I do!"
"Hurry up and decide whether you want to use your merits to protect your junior sister's reincarnation. I'm busy with my duties, I don't have time to waste on you," Black Impermanence said impatiently.
Subsequently, as expected, when Hei Wuchang took away Xuan Ling'er's soul, the Netherworld Emperor inexplicably extracted 30% of the immense merit that Yao Chen possessed.
Of the 30% of the merit power extracted from Yao Chen, the Netherworld Emperor kept only 20%, and injected the remaining 10% into Xuan Ling'er's soul.
This power of virtue will not only protect Xuan Ling'er's true spirit during her six reincarnations, but will also endow her with talents that are unparalleled by ordinary people from birth.
As those hundreds of powerful ghost immortals constantly traveled between the Gates of Hell and various parts of the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm, all the souls in the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm and the souls of those nearing the end of their lifespan had been captured by the powerful ghost immortals and taken to the Underworld.
The Netherworld Emperor looked down at the ghost immortals who had gradually returned to the Gates of Hell, nodded, and then proceeded to the next step.
As the Netherworld Emperor manipulated a series of mysterious hand seals, the scene inside the Gate of Hell gradually appeared before the eyes of all beings in the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm.
Looking out from the gate, one could see a vast and boundless River of Souls within the underworld, with countless souls flowing along its waters.
On both banks of the River of Souls, there grows endless fields of spider lilies, one side with red red spider lilies and the other with white datura flowers.
At the end of the River of Souls, souls with merit will come ashore from one side of the Mandala Flower, choosing whether to live in the underworld as ghosts or enter the cycle of reincarnation to be reborn into a better life.
