Changsheng: My experience in patrolling the liver

Chapter 638 The Abyss Emperor Reappears! (Two Chapters Combined)

"My soul was pulled into a seal."

Song Changming took a deep breath, confirming that only his soul had entered the seal, while his physical body remained in the abyss outside the seal.

Song Changming hadn't expected that this Star-Devouring Dragon possessed such abilities.

However, this is ultimately caused by the seal loosening.

"It seems that you are the only one in the outside world who has mastered this sealing formation. As long as your soul cannot return, I think no one else can repair this seal."

The roar of the Star-Devouring Dragon was like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing, instantly filling the entire sealed space. If Song Changming's Witch God Soul had not been sufficiently refined, he would have been shattered by the roar of the Star-Devouring Dragon and ended up with his soul scattered.

Song Changming's divine soul figure gathered with soul power, and three layers of divine steps appeared beneath his feet, causing the giant dragon eyes of the Star Devouring Dragon to narrow slightly, its ferocity growing stronger.

"The Witch Clan has been missing from the primordial land for a long time. Although we don't know why you, a fish that slipped through the net, were able to hide here, now that you've entered, don't even think about leaving."

As it spoke, the enormous dragon head drew ever closer to Song Changming's divine soul.

"Who has won now, you witch clan brat?"

The Star-Devouring Dragon spoke with smugness, as a mere wielder of a divine soul was nothing more than a puppet to be manipulated by its true form.

Therefore, it believed that it had victory in its grasp and that Song Changming was doomed.

Next, he only needs to swallow it whole. Without Song Changming's obstruction, given the current state of the seal's wear and tear, its breaking free is just around the corner.

"If you beg for mercy, I might let you live a few more days."

Perhaps it was the first time in ten thousand years that a companion had come to keep it company, so the Star-Devouring Dragon was not in a hurry to kill Song Changming's soul, but wanted to find some fun in Song Changming's soul.

After saying that, it looked Song Changming up and down, but the result disappointed it somewhat.

Song Changming remained calm and showed no sign of panic. He simply observed it and the sealed space with composure, seemingly indifferent to his own life or death.

"Kid, aren't you afraid of dying?"

"After you die, I will slaughter all of humanity. Oh, I don't even need to do it myself. Those mist spirits will sweep across the land, leaving nothing but barren land!" The Star-Devouring Dragon chuckled, threateningly.

He tried to find amusement in Song Changming and hoped to see Song Changming trying to please him.

Unfortunately, Song Changming remained unmoved, which made it feel very bored.

"Perhaps, I need to let you experience what real pain is."

As the Star-Devouring Dragon spoke, a waterspout rose from the black water below, sweeping straight towards Song Changming's demigod soul.

The pain of a broken soul is usually far greater than the pain of physical injury, and the Star Devouring Dragon did not believe that Song Changming could remain indifferent.

hum!
Upon seeing this, Song Changming's demigod directly conjured a long blade with his soul power and slashed at the Star Devouring Dragon.

Divine Sense Slash!
Ignoring space, he directly used his divine sense to leap and sever the enemy's soul!
Roar!
The instant Song Changming was submerged by the waterspout, the Star-Devouring Dragon let out a roar tinged with pain.

Clearly, it hadn't expected that Song Changming, in his predicament, could instantly deliver a fatal blow to the soul.

Even though the Star-Devouring Dragon's soul was powerful enough, it had been suppressed under this seal for ten thousand years. Even though its original strength was all-powerful, its current state was far from its past peak, and it might not even have retained half of its strength.

Therefore, Song Changming's sudden strike did indeed hurt it.

On the other side, Song Changming's soul stood on the divine steps. Although he was shrouded in black water, the divine steps protected his soul, which remained solid, and his body emitted a faint glow of soul power.

When the black water dissipated, although his soul had lost some of its soul power and energy, making it appear slightly dimmer, it was still far worse than the result the Star Devouring Dragon had anticipated.

Now the Star-Devouring Dragon lost its playful intentions and, with a roar, its body burst forth with dazzling colorful light.

Each dragon scale is like a twinkling star in the sky; when they come together, the Star-Devouring Dragon is like a vibrant galaxy!

Beneath the starry sky, the endless black water was mobilized, instantly turning the entire sealed space black, just like the night sky.

Under the cover of night, the starry river formed by the Star-Devouring Dragon is the only light!

At this moment, Song Changming had to admit that the Star-Devouring Dragon seemed to be the true ruler of the starry sky under the night.

It was as if a deity had manifested, and its power was something Song Changming had never experienced in his more than two hundred years of cultivation.

"How can someone be this powerful while sealed?"

Song Changming sighed inwardly, mentally preparing himself for the possibility of not being able to leave this time.

"I am the true dragon!"

The Star-Devouring Dragon's two burning eyes stared at Song Changming, and the immense pressure alone caused Song Changming to suddenly increase the consumption of his soul body.

At the same time, the black water was constantly eroding his soul.

Since Song Changming did not bring his physical body with him, he was unable to activate the witch seal and deploy his own protective domain.

He couldn't even mobilize anything else besides his soul power.

The Star-Devouring Dragon swooped down on him, as if countless planets were crashing into his soul.

Energy intertwined, and a continuous rumbling sound arose.

The dragon swam in the water, and after flying around once, it returned to the top. Meanwhile, Song Changming's soul figure had dimmed considerably and was on the verge of disappearing.

"Star Devouring Dragon, see you next time! We'll compete again then!" Song Changming said coldly.

Upon hearing this, the Star-Devouring Dragon chuckled softly.

"What, you don't actually think you can leave alive?"

It knew that the witch clan possessed many unpredictable witchcraft techniques that could save lives, avert danger, and even bring the dead back to life!

But it didn't believe that Song Changming could still survive if his soul had been completely destroyed.

The art of bringing the dead back to life is usually only possible when the physical body has lost its life force, but the soul still exists.

If the soul is gone, no matter how skillful or miraculous the art of resurrection is, it will never be able to save Song Changming. That is why it is at ease.

Song Changming's soul will absolutely not be able to escape, and it will definitely be destroyed!

Song Changming was too lazy to waste any more words with it. Seeing that there was no hope of survival, he planned to disperse his soul and then rely on the panel to consume his lifespan to be reborn!

This is also the source of his confidence in remaining calm.

Anyway, he has accumulated a lot of lifespan, so even if he loses one life, it is not something he cannot accept now.

However, at that moment, as if activated by him, or perhaps by the riot caused by the Star Devouring Dragon, the entire sealing array suddenly lit up brightly.

The black water that originally covered the entire sealed space was also forced back down by the power of the seal, and even the Star-Devouring Dragon could no longer mobilize this black water.

hum!
Countless beams of light suddenly shot out from the seal, like golden ropes, wrapping around the overly restless Star-Devouring Dragon.

Song Changming's research and control over this seal had reached the proficiency level, close to the minor completion level, so he could tell at a glance that the seal had been fully activated.

However, in reality, for this array to unleash its full power, the person who set it up must personally oversee and control it.

However, how could Emperor Yuan of that time possibly be personally overseeing things at this moment?

Just as he was puzzled, countless rays of light shot out from the seal and converged, manifesting a figure. It could be vaguely seen that this figure was humanoid, with one hand pulling on the golden rope. No matter how much the Star-Devouring Dragon struggled, it could not break free from the restraint at the other end of the rope.

Song Changming felt a strange sense of familiarity with this humanoid figure of light and shadow.

"It's you!"

The Star-Devouring Dragon became extremely violent the moment it saw the humanoid figure of light.

This is the appearance it has never shown since it dragged Song Changming's soul into the seal.

A thought struck Song Changming, and he suddenly understood.

"Could this be the remnant soul of Emperor Yuan?"

He couldn't think of anyone else who could make the Star-Devouring Dragon so hostile and ferocious, except for the Abyss Emperor who imprisoned it for ten thousand years.

Not to mention that only Emperor Yuan, the one who set up the seal, could fully control and activate it.

In addition, Song Changming had seen a remnant soul left behind by Emperor Yuan in the Tianxu territory, which is why he felt a sense of familiarity.

The reappearance of the remnant soul of the Abyss Emperor almost convinced him that there was no mistake.

His appearance at a time of crisis seemed to give him a glimmer of hope to escape.

Ignoring the roars of the Star-Devouring Dragon, the remnant soul of Emperor Yuan moved its head slightly, seemingly turning it to look at where Song Changming was.

He held the golden rope of the Star-Devouring Dragon in one hand and pointed at him from afar with the other.

Then, Song Changming's soul felt a sense of weightlessness.

Suddenly everything went black, and the space shifted.

Everything happened in an instant.

When Song Changming came to his senses, he saw that the sealing runes had moved from above his head to below his feet.

The surrounding scenery told him that he had already come out.

A quick scan revealed that his flesh and blood had been embedded in a protruding rock wall by the impact of the abyss's energy.

Fortunately, he had already cleared out most of the strange beasts in the abyss over the years.

At this moment, no abyssal beasts were able to disturb his body.

Without much thought, Song Changming immediately returned to his body in the Sea of ​​Darkness.

It's like a rootless duckweed has finally found its home, feeling much more at ease and secure.

The Underworld immediately began to nurture Song Changming's runaway soul.

His tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

This time, I truly escaped death.

He had already made plans to be reborn. If it weren't for the remnant soul of the Abyss Emperor intervening, he would probably be gone by now.

Feeling the continuous and surging power emanating from his physical body, Song Changming learned a lesson this time.

"It seems necessary to find a way to strengthen the connection between the soul and the body..." Song Changming thought to himself.

Otherwise, if his soul were to be taken away again in the future, all his hard-earned master-level cultivation and his honed physical strength would be rendered useless.

This is definitely a terrible situation he doesn't want to face again.

Fortunately, the traditions of the Wu tribe should contain a solution to this problem.

Making a mental note of this matter for future study, Song Changming casually pushed aside the buried stones and returned to the top of the sealing array.

He was shocked to discover that in just a short time, many of the worn parts of the sealing array had been completely repaired.

In this way, the Star-Devouring Dragon inside would have wasted all its efforts.

As expected, this sealing formation should have been repaired by the remnant soul of Emperor Nayuan.

Song Changming stood outside the seal, his perception unable to penetrate it, and he could not perceive the current state of the sealed space.

And once the seal was fully repaired, the Star-Devouring Dragon could no longer affect the outside world.

At the bottom of the abyss, the cosmic energy and supernatural powers previously released by the Star-Devouring Dragon had completely dissipated.

The abyssal energy continued to erupt like a torrent, forming an insurmountable energy barrier at the entrance, while also supplying the sealing array to operate day after day.

Everything in the abyss returned to normal, as if nothing had ever happened.

Song Changming was in no hurry to leave; he simply waited quietly.

Not long after, the many runes on the sealing array lit up again.

Immediately afterwards, streaks of light re-outlined the shadows, revealing the remnant soul of the Abyss Emperor that he had identified.

His face remained blurry, obscured by a halo, making it impossible to see clearly.

But Song Changming was certain that the other party was also watching him at that moment.

Suddenly, a voice drifted over, magnetic and with a touch of dashing spirit.

"That Star-Devouring Dragon said you were a member of the Witch Clan, but I can see that you are a pure-blooded human, just like me."

Song Changming sensed the friendliness in the voice.

The other party's words were to the point and almost directly revealed his identity without any attempt to conceal it.

Both being pure-blooded humans, who else could the other be but Emperor Yuan?
To Song Changming's surprise, the remnant soul of Emperor Yuan attached to the seal seemed to have self-awareness and cognition. Not only could it suppress the Star Devouring Dragon and repair the sealing array, it could also communicate and interact with Song Changming.

It was as if he was not just a remnant of a soul, but the true body of Emperor Yuan!

"Are you Emperor Yuan?" Although he was quite certain in his heart, Song Changming still wanted to confirm with this person in person again.

"It's just a wisp of divine thought left behind." The voice from the light and shadow continued to drift out.

"Before I left Kyushu, I was worried that this Star-Devouring Dragon would break the seal and continue to harm the human race. Therefore, I specially left this divine thought as a remedy, which only appears when the seal is worn down to a certain extent and repairs the seal."

Song Changming was taken aback and blurted out instinctively, "You're not dead?"

Hearing the remnant soul of Emperor Yuan say that he left the Nine Provinces instead of sacrificing himself and burning away, he couldn't help but wonder if Emperor Yuan back then really didn't die, but just left!
After a brief silence, Guangying said, "I went to the Primordial Continent, and I am still alive."

At this point, he suddenly changed the subject and asked, "What? None of you know I went to the Primordial World?"

He seemed quite surprised by this as well.

Song Changming nodded and said directly, "All the past history books and rumors say that you sacrificed yourself to prevent a cataclysmic disaster."

If what this light and shadow said is absolutely true, then even Song Changming never expected that the Yuan Emperor, who unified the Nine Provinces, personally forged the peak of the human race, and established the Ancient Yuan Kingdom, was none other than Emperor Yuan.

This legendary figure, who had long been mythologized, now told him that he was not only still alive, but had also gone to that primordial world!
