Chapitre 182

Struggling will only pull him further back.

Qin Ming sighed helplessly and gave up on activating his soul power.

A futile struggle is of no use.

Suddenly everything went black, plunging me into complete darkness. I reached out, but couldn't touch anything. I suppose I was imprisoned in some kind of vessel that holds souls by that blurry figure.

Time had lost its meaning, and there was no sense of turbulence there. After an unknown amount of time, a clear, cold voice faintly heard: "This soul power is very strong."

Qin Ming felt the space around him shake a few times, as if someone was moving around trying to hear his movements.

Qin Ming focused his mind, trying to hear what was happening outside, but unfortunately, there was no further sound after that first sound.

Who exactly arrested him?

What happened?

If this were the underworld, wouldn't it react like this?

A beam of light pierced into his space. Qin Ming didn't know if things were good or bad outside, but he still drifted towards the light.

After escaping, find another way to escape.

Having just escaped the darkness, he was almost dazzled by the beautiful light before him. He instinctively shrank back, but then felt a strong push from behind, causing him to involuntarily rush forward.

They were instantly enveloped by various colored lights, as if they were stuck to something, and were pulled into the sphere of light.

If anyone could still hear Qin Ming's voice, they would be terrified out of their wits; that scream was just too painful and shrill.

Unfortunately, at the bottom of this tower, apart from the Venerable One in the sphere of light, there is no one else.

The Venerable One, dressed in a light gauze dress, swayed gracefully, but her elegant figure could not soften the cold lines on her face. She stared coldly at the ball of light that was constantly changing and shifting in various colors, watching Qin Ming's soul being devoured, watching him struggle left and right, trying to find an exit.

Unfortunately, once a soul arrives here, it cannot leave and is destined to become nourishment for the immortal souls.

"Well done." Qin Ming's strength pleased the Venerable One greatly, but even his praise was indifferent.

The blurry figure beside him nodded excitedly, and after seeing the Venerable One nod slightly, it rushed into the sphere of light.

Compared to the agonizing struggles of other souls, the blurred figure found enjoyment.

It felt like soaking in a warm spring, comfortably absorbing energy.

Qin Ming struggled for a long time, only to find it was all in vain; the more he struggled, the deeper he sank.

Gradually, Qin Ming's struggles grew weaker and weaker, until finally he stopped, allowing the various lights to envelop him and merge into the sphere of light.

The Venerable One watched quietly, a smile appearing on his face: "It's truly rare to find someone with such a soul."

After thinking for a moment, he muttered to himself, "If only there were always souls like that."

well……

The Venerable One sighed inwardly; of course, she knew this was wishful thinking on her part.

Whenever someone dies, they are taken away by the underworld. It seems that this soul was a powerful figure in life, and must have encountered an opportunity when it died to remain in the world.

Seeing that the sphere of light had returned to calm, the Venerable One did not linger any longer, turned around, and slowly left.

As the Venerable One departed, the lamps on the walls went out one by one, leaving only the light of the sphere flickering in the vast space. No one noticed that inside the sphere, in a corner, a tiny, tiny remnant of its own consciousness lay still, like fine sand at the bottom of water.

Qin Ming did not resist, but instead opted for a second-best option: to preserve his last vestiges of consciousness so that it would not dissipate.

The matter of the Prince of Jing has not yet been resolved, and Liu Xinya is still not out of danger.

He finally understood: this was actually the immortal realm!

He never imagined that the immortal realm would do such a despicable thing, using souls to nourish souls.

Now, he has no choice but to give it his all and take a gamble.

I don't know if it will work, but if it does, maybe Liu Xinya can be saved.

Even if he fails, he will die without regrets.

He slowly activated the power he had reserved, sensing it as it subtly radiated outwards.

The only connection we have, I don't know if we'll ever find it.

Qin Ming focused all his energy on activating his power, because he used all his power to connect with others, so he had no power left to protect himself.

His soul was corroded by the power of the light sphere, causing him to tremble all over in pain. His already fragile soul slowly became almost transparent, so transparent that it seemed as if it would shatter at the slightest touch.

Despair surged up like a tidal wave, completely engulfing Qin Ming.

His remaining strength was almost exhausted, his consciousness was becoming increasingly unclear, and he could no longer feel any pain.

Qin Ming knew that his time was coming to an end.

In the end, it still didn't work, but he really tried his best.

Just as Qin Ming was about to exhaust his last bit of power, there was a fluctuation in the space outside the sphere of light, and Liu Lanyan appeared in mid-air, looking at the space with a strange expression.

"Liu Lanyan." Qin Ming's surprised voice faintly rang in Liu Lanyan's ears. Liu Lanyan looked at the ball of light and immediately sensed the source of Qin Ming's last bit of power.

"Qin Ming, what are you doing here?" Liu Lanyan approached the ball of light curiously. As Liu Lanyan got closer, the ball of light immediately began to shimmer again, and with a whoosh, it shot out a beam of light, trying to grab Liu Lanyan as well.

Liu Lanyan smiled slightly, waved her hand without even looking at it, and directly knocked the light aside.

She doesn't have any time for random things like playing with this.

Reaching out, he grabbed Qin Ming, who had shrunk to a tiny size, from inside the sphere of light.

As soon as he was separated from the ball of light, Qin Ming immediately returned to his original appearance, lying to the side panting heavily, the light of his soul flickering slightly, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.

The ball of light wanted to pull Liu Lanyan inside, but perhaps because of the previous incident, it was afraid and dared not make any further moves.

"What's going on?" Liu Lanyan asked Qin Ming curiously. What exactly is this place?

It made her feel very uncomfortable.

"I don't know, I was captured." Qin Ming, who had finally regained some strength and could speak freely, immediately answered Liu Lanyan.

Now he knew that only Liu Lanyan could save him.

Moreover, seeing how easily Liu Lanyan dealt with the light sphere just now made him even more convinced that Liu Lanyan could definitely handle the situation here.

"This is the Immortal Realm." Qin Ming told Liu Lanyan the only piece of information he knew.

"The Immortal Realm?" This news was clearly too unexpected for Liu Lanyan, who couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and ask in surprise.

Qin Ming nodded, indicating that he was not lying.

Liu Lanyan ignored Qin Ming and walked to the ball of light, observing it carefully.

Then, he reached out and touched it directly.

Liu Lanyan's action startled Qin Ming, who cried out in surprise. He then discovered that Liu Lanyan's arm had entered the sphere of light, causing the various colored lights flowing within the sphere to pause, as if it had been frightened.

Liu Lanyan was unharmed.

Qin Ming frowned slightly. Although they were both soul beings, Liu Lanyan's soul seemed far too powerful.

"What's wrong?" Qin Ming noticed that Liu Lanyan's expression was a little unpleasant, and she seemed to be in a difficult position. His heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she couldn't leave this place?

He didn't want to be trapped here, so he tentatively asked, "Liu Lanyan, you don't have any way to get me out of here, do you?"

Liu Lanyan waved her hand: "Taking you away is no problem." After comforting Qin Ming a little, Liu Lanyan fell into deep thought again.

She sensed Qin Ming's soul pleading for help in the Demon Realm Palace. She hadn't originally intended to come and check on him, but along with the power of Qin Ming's plea for help, she sensed another power that puzzled her.

He then made an excuse to go back to his room and came over in his soul form.

Upon arrival, she felt very uncomfortable, as if she had been thrown into water, leaving her with a tightness in her chest, an unpleasant feeling of being unable to breathe properly.

"You go first." After pondering for a while, Liu Lanyan remembered that Qin Ming was still beside her, so she opened a passage that could only be traversed by souls to let Qin Ming leave.

"You're not leaving?" Qin Ming stood at the entrance of the passage, looking back at Liu Lanyan. This was the Immortal Realm, what was she going to do here?

"I have other things to do." Liu Lanyan flicked her sleeve and sent Qin Ming into the passage, as he was really getting in the way.

The passage closed, and Liu Lanyan turned her head, looking thoughtfully at the sphere of light with its various colors flowing around it.

Is this why celestial souls in the celestial realm developed consciousness?

Is the intention to nourish immortal souls with other souls, hoping that once they gain consciousness, they can better enhance the power of the immortal realm?

However, this method seems somewhat inappropriate.

I don't know where this soul came from, but if a celestial soul absorbs such power, it will "pollute" the celestial soul.

It will cause the pure power of the immortal soul to be tainted by various "filths," resulting in various murderous intentions, gradually deviating from the boundaries of the immortal soul, and leaning towards the feeling of a demon.

The two immortal souls that attacked her last time already showed signs of turning into demons.

Haven't the people of the immortal realm discovered this yet?

Is this meant to strengthen the power of the Immortal Realm or destroy it?

It seems necessary to investigate the Immortal Realm thoroughly. Otherwise, with so many immortal souls about to gain consciousness, if the Three Realms were to truly clash, the Demon Realm would suffer greatly.

She didn't want the demon god to be caught off guard.

Chapter 137 The Power of the Three Realms

I wonder what the people in the celestial realm are thinking. Are they from the celestial realm or the demon realm?

Liu Lanyan glanced at the ball of light in front of her, wondering if this was the only way to cultivate immortal souls, or if there were other methods.

From the moment Liu Lanyan saw this thing, she had already decided to stay in the Immortal Realm to figure it out first. That's why she sent Qin Ming away so he wouldn't get in her way.

It's unbelievable that keeping Qin Ming's soul behind in order to learn more about the Demon Realm has now done her a huge favor, allowing her to even learn about the Immortal Realm.

Liu Lanyan carefully observed the ball of light, then turned around and looked at the room. A moment of confusion flashed through her mind; the thought passed by so quickly that Liu Lanyan couldn't even grasp it.

Thinking back again but still unable to find a clue, Liu Lanyan frowned, shook her head, and suppressed the strange thought from before. Now was the time to think about this.
