I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 650 Gods in the Whirlpool, Killing to Obtain Souls

Jiang Chen retreated quickly, and Wang Feng and his wife followed suit.

Jiang Chen retreated tens of thousands of meters until he was more than 30 kilometers away from the whirlpool before stopping.

At this moment, the waves in the whirlpool surged one after another, each giant wave rising more than a thousand meters high, and the number was increasing rapidly.

The whirlpool expanded rapidly, swallowing up all the surrounding seawater.

The spot where they had just been standing was submerged by the expanding vortex in less than half a minute.

Wang Feng looked terrified. If he had retreated any slower, it would have been another life-or-death crisis.

"Thank you so much, brother!" Wang Feng sincerely thanked Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen didn't speak, but stared intently at the vortex.

Others see surging waves, but he sees the turbulent souls beneath them.

A massive amount of soul power emerged from the whirlpool, transforming into a giant hand that continuously slapped the water's surface, creating towering waves.

Jiang Chen felt the soul turmoil, and so did Wang Feng.

With such a violent and powerful soul force, Wang Feng felt that if he were hit even once, he would definitely die instantly.

His face looked even paler.

It wasn't just the injury, but also the shock.

"How could this be? My predecessor's notes didn't mention anything like this."

Wang Feng kept muttering to himself, his palms even starting to sweat. Jiang Chen still ignored him, instead focusing on a deeper level of feeling.

The towering waves were merely a facade; at their core lay a rampage of soul power.

But what is the core of the chaos caused by the power of the soul, and why does it riot?

Deeper still, Jiang Chen saw a consciousness far more chaotic than before.

The vortex absorbed a large number of living monsters, trapping their souls within it and kneading them together with their consciousness.

Souls merge under the influence of some great force, becoming even stronger.

However, consciousness did not merge; instead, it remained independent and scattered, each going its own way, thus becoming chaotic and disorderly.

It's like a powerful army without a unified command.

Some soldiers were to head south, while others were to head north; some were to charge forward, while others were to retreat.

However, the entire army was incredibly powerful; even a small fraction of its strength could wipe out the enemy.

The area may be a bit chaotic, but the impact will be minimal.

This was just before; although my consciousness was chaotic before, it hadn't reached the point of eruption.

It seems that something has changed inside the vortex, and these chaotic consciousnesses have completely erupted.

The chaos of the vortex finally reached its limit after several minutes.

With a deafening roar, a massive wave of water, tens of thousands of meters high, shot out from the center of the vortex, reaching straight into the sky.

At this moment, the sky and the sea merged into one line.

From a distance, it looks like a waterfall flowing backwards, which is extremely spectacular.

I've never seen such a huge wave fountain before. It looks like it's going to pierce the sky.

Wang Feng and his wife exclaimed in surprise at the same time, and their fear from before subsided considerably.

Jiang Chen gazed at the towering fountain and sensed that with this eruption, his chaotic consciousness was suddenly driven out and quickly dissipated into the world.

A strange aura emanated from the bottom of the vortex.

"A deity!" Jiang Chen frowned; he sensed the aura emanating from a deity.

Along with the divine aura, laws also appeared.

The power of the laws quickly integrated the power of the soul, extracting the essence and discarding the dross; those chaotic consciousnesses were the dross.

In the blink of an eye, the chaotic consciousness inside had been driven away, and the remaining soul became extremely pure.

Then, the soul power fell with the waves and re-entered the vortex. The vortex was like an invisible giant maw, swallowing the purified soul power whole.

The divine aura vanished without a trace.

Jiang Chen finally understood that there was a god, or at least a high-level god, inside the vortex.

It controlled the vortex, absorbing a large number of monsters and brutally kneading their souls together.

Once there are enough, use the laws to dispel the chaotic consciousness within and claim the power of the soul as your own.

This method indiscriminately imprisons souls, regardless of friend or foe, and ultimately devours them.

Jiang Chen felt that this deity was neither friendly nor kind.

After one eruption, the vortex quickly returned to calm.

The vortex shrank, and its range became much smaller than before.

Wang Feng exclaimed, "It's over! Although it was dangerous, it was truly spectacular!" "The sea and sky meet at the horizon. Our ancestors didn't lie to me. It's worth seeing."

He could only sense the surface of the soul power, unlike Jiang Chen who could sense it more deeply.

He couldn't sense anything deeper.

Jiang Chen stared at the vortex, analyzing what he had seen and felt before.

"A god should be sleeping deep within the whirlpool, and he must be seriously injured."

"Once you enter the vortex, it treats everyone the same, whether they are monsters, humans, demons or dragons, and accepts all comers."

“Every few years, once enough souls have gathered, it will awaken. It will use the laws to dispel the consciousness within and completely devour the purest soul power.”

"It seems that this deity is skilled in matters of the soul."

Each deity has its own strengths, and the one slumbering in the vortex is clearly skilled in matters of the soul.

It's something that Jiang Chen can't compare to at present.

Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, then slowly flew forward.

Upon seeing this, Wang Feng quickly called out, "Brother, where are you going? It's dangerous there."

Jiang Chen replied, "There's no danger for now. I'll go check it out."

Wang Feng hesitated for a moment and did not follow.

The previous eruption of the vortex had really frightened him.

If I were to take that hit myself, I would be absolutely dead.

He valued his life and decided to wait and see.

Jiang Chen arrived at a point ten thousand meters away from the vortex, where a headless knight appeared and charged towards the vortex.

This time, the headless horseman successfully charged into the 10,000-meter range.

This time they were not attacked, and continued on their way without incident. It wasn't until the headless rider approached within a kilometer of the vortex's edge that the soul attack struck again.

The headless horseman died on the spot and returned to the summoning queue.

The range has been reduced to one kilometer, meaning the deity's defensive perimeter has been reduced to one kilometer.

However, the soul attacks within this kilometer range are even more intense than before.

This is a restricted area; no one is allowed to enter.

"This deity still left some of its power for defense."

"It seems its injuries aren't that serious."

Jiang Chen had no intention of going in to provoke a high-level god who was skilled in using soul attacks; he wasn't arrogant enough to do that.

His gaze swept across the lower space, as if he were looking at all four oceans within it. In the lower space, apart from the Divine Dragon Continent in the east, almost every continent had something to do with gods.

The entire lower level is like a tomb of gods.

A great battle once took place here, and many gods perished here.

Seeing that Jiang Chen was alright, Wang Feng mustered up his courage and came over, "Brother, are you alright?"

Jiang Chen shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

Wang Feng said, "I don't know what's going on with this central vortex. I've never heard anyone say how dangerous it is."

Jiang Chen chuckled softly, "That's because anyone who got too close is dead. Dead people can't talk."

Wang Feng suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. "My god, this is terrifying. Forget it, I'd better not come here again."

"Yeah, don't come if there's nothing wrong."

This is the sleeping place of a powerful god. There is no point in coming here unless you want to kill the god.

"But it doesn't look dangerous at all." Wang Feng looked left and right, but couldn't see where the danger lay.

The vortex appeared unusually calm at this moment.

As long as you don't enter its kilometer-wide restricted zone, there is no danger at all.

"It doesn't look dangerous, but it's actually very dangerous. This deity is very well disguised!"

Suddenly, a series of crisp sounds rang out, gradually forming a beautiful melody.

The sound was melodious and pleasant, with a unique rhythm.

"The voice of the soul." Jiang Chen deduced that the voice came from the vortex.

Wang Feng asked in surprise, "Brother, did you hear anything?"

Jiang Chen hummed in agreement, "It's the sound of the soul." The woman next to Wang Feng asked curiously, "Why didn't I hear it?"

Wang Feng said, "That's because your soul level isn't high enough, so it's normal that you can't hear it."

Then Wang Feng looked at him strangely, "I feel like this voice is summoning something."

Jiang Chen pointed into the distance, "They are summoning monsters from the sea."

Looking in the direction Jiang Chen pointed, the monsters beneath the Starlight Sea and the Wind and Thunder Sea were heading towards the vortex.

This voice of the soul is directed at monsters; Jiang Chen was only able to hear it because his soul level was too high.

Although Wang Feng's soul level was not as high as Jiang Chen's, he still heard the voice.

Summoned by the voice of the soul, a large number of monsters rushed out of the sea and plunged into the whirlpool regardless of the danger.

After entering the vortex's kilometer-wide radius, they died silently one by one.

The soul and consciousness are separated and merged together.

The vortex also expanded in size.

Jiang Chen watched this scene and knew that the same thing must have happened countless times before.

The sleeping gods summoned living beings time and time again, killed them, and forcibly merged their souls together.

Then, every few years, it awakens once and swallows the merged souls whole.

The law of the jungle is laid bare here.

The gods are powerful, so they can do whatever they want with these monsters.

Not only monsters, but even professionals, dragons, and demons will face the same fate as the monsters; they will not be treated differently.
