Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

If... if I died, but my soul pet survived! Even if it survives in a state that people can’t comprehend!

Would my soul pet want to return to my world, to my grave after a very long time?

It should, right?

No!

It certainly will!

Wen Yu was sure of this.

So, Wen Yu gently nodded.

”If you do as you say! I will do everything in my power to escort you to your master’s grave!”

Then, Wen Yu saw the Almighty Demon Vine bend its body slightly—it appeared as if it was paying deep respect.

”Thank you!”

...

Ye Nan and her two companions, who had just stepped out of the extra-dimensional asylum, were taken aback by this strange scene.

The three of them, unable to make sense of it all, stood rooted to the spot, daring not to move.

Kasu, however, was fearless and looked eager to come over and ”spar” a little with Ye Nan and the others.

”Stop!”

A loud shout put an end to everyone’s actions.

Wen Yu first looked at Ye Nan and her party, then at the treasure land key in his hand.

The Almighty Demon Vine’s sudden change had momentarily caught Wen Yu off guard.

”Let’s get something straight. Some complications have arisen on my end, so, you!”

Wen Yu pointed at Kasu.

”If you want to kill someone, wait until I leave. I don’t want to see any unforeseen incidents right now!”

One can only do their best by focusing on a single task, and I’m not clever enough to juggle multiple things, Wen Yu thought. Therefore, as the Almighty Demon Vine was about to open the treasure land, he absolutely didn’t want any further complications.

As it turned out, Wen Yu’s words were absolute law here.

Kasu, discerning the situation, halted and gestured for Wen Yu to proceed.

Wen Yu glanced at Ye Nan and her party again, then at the treasure land key in his hand, and decisively transmitted a Spiritual Fluctuation to them.

”I’ll be opening a treasure land soon. Watch for the opportune moment and sneak in. Oh, and Ye Nan, bring Wanping’s corpse with you. How you handle it is up to you!”

Currently, that fellow Wanping isn’t very important. Handing him over to Ye Nan is a decent option!

”Thank you, but that key opens to a place deep within Bohai City...”

Ye Nan added this piece of information.

”That doesn’t matter anymore...”

...

Where it opens truly doesn’t matter anymore!

A pet of a powerhouse from the Universe of Immortals and Heroes? And that powerhouse is very likely the expert closest to the Dominator, the one the Almighty Demon Vine mentioned.

Even if it were merely one of his potted plants, the Almighty Demon Vine’s power would be beyond my imagination!

Seeing that Wen Yu was prepared, the Almighty Demon Vine picked up the treasure land key again.

A purple glow began to radiate from the top of the Almighty Demon Vine.

Wen Yu sensed the Almighty Demon Vine brandishing the purple light, tracing several bizarre symbols in mid-air with the treasure land key. Afterward, the vine seemed to have been utterly drained, collapsing limply to the ground.

A Spiritual Fluctuation from the Almighty Demon Vine resonated in his mind.

”It’s done. In a moment, I will alter the spatial opening and targeting coordinates of the treasure land key. It contains the fundamental operating principles of space-type skills. Learn as much as you can! Consider this an advance on your reward!”

”Understood!”

At the same time, I’ve also learned something else—Level 10! The Almighty Demon Vine’s Soul Strength must be Level 10, right? And reaching Level 10 means one can already touch upon the essence of skills.

...

After a while, the monumentally tired Almighty Demon Vine put down the treasure land key.

Wen Yu could only watch as the needle on the key spun erratically, like a compass in an area of magnetic disturbance.

Then, the needle, which had originally pointed towards Bohai City, slowly came to a stop a short distance in front of him.

Wen Yu’s eyebrows shot up.

Did it just forcibly shift the treasure land’s entry point right in front of me?

But what about the fundamental operating principles of space-type skills that were promised?

Perhaps sensing Wen Yu’s thoughts, the Almighty Demon Vine gently swayed its branches.

”Watch closely!”

The next second, a torrential power began to surge outward, and an immense, ferocious Soul field instantly enveloped the entire CH Town!

Wen Yu had never witnessed such a level of energy in his life!

This was the power of the Almighty Demon Vine’s original Soul!

Level 10, definitely... Wen Yu silently affirmed in his heart.

Then, Wen Yu sensed waves of immense energy radiating outwards. In his perception, the Almighty Demon Vine blazed like a colossal, fiercely burning torch!

Using its Soul as fuel to ignite the most ferocious Life Light!

At this moment, the Almighty Demon Vine, in my eyes, is blooming like a giant firework!

...

Under the burning flame of life, the supposedly indestructible shell of the treasure land key began to melt like wax exposed to fire, gradually revealing the structure underneath...

However, the treasure land key had no complex internal structure...

Hidden beneath its outer shell were only countless, densely packed, silvery-white threads.

These innumerable silver threads, like a vast net, were arranged in a neat and orderly fashion, constituting the path to the treasure land’s destination.

”These are called the Strings of Space.”

The Soul of the Almighty Demon Vine explained weakly yet solemnly to Wen Yu.

But what the hell could Wen Yu understand from just a single sentence?

To put it bluntly, this stuff is even more complicated than advanced mathematics! You show it to me once, tell me its name, and I’m supposed to get it? Wouldn’t that make me some kind of genius? Would I still need to risk my life fighting all the time? I might as well go slack off at a research institute!

Unfortunately, there truly wasn’t enough time; the Almighty Demon Vine simply couldn’t explain much more to Wen Yu.

He saw countless, even finer tendrils suddenly extend from the Almighty Demon Vine’s tip. These tendrils, as nimble as human fingers, constantly plucked at the silvery-white threads within the treasure land key.

”Universe of Immortals and Heroes, Universe of Immortals and Heroes!! Found it!!!”

”The Universe of Immortals and Heroes is divided into 6,589 treasure lands, of which three are Super Treasure Lands. They are...”

”Kunlun Secret Realm...”

”Penglai Fairy Island...”

”The Ten-layered! Heavenly Palace!!!”

The next second, the fine tendrils extended by the Almighty Demon Vine vibrated wildly, almost instantly reconfiguring the entire arrangement of the silvery-white threads within the treasure land key!

Then, the energy output began!

...

The Soul is the origin, the body merely a vessel.

At this moment, the power erupting from the Almighty Demon Vine gave Wen Yu a profound understanding of this statement.

The Almighty Demon Vine’s Physical Strength was not inherently great. However, the power it unleashed by burning its Soul alone was enough to make Wen Yu—and indeed every living being within the bounds of M City—take notice!

In Wen Yu’s perception, the Almighty Demon Vine’s Soul Fluctuation grew increasingly faint, but in its place, the power within the treasure land key surged, growing ever stronger!
