Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

The Demon Lord shivered, and his recent memories were abruptly interrupted.

Looking at Wen Yu beside him, the Demon Lord slowly moved his body and propped up his upper half.

”You’re here.”

”This is...”

”Bai is dead, the Heavenly Dao is severely injured and trapped in the Soul World. I’m now exhausted and can’t deliver the final blow, so I need you.”

Wen Yu remained silent for a while, glancing at the half-lying Demon Lord on the ground, then at the Heavenly Dao who seemed lifeless, hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and asked resolutely.

”What do you need me to do?”

”Use the Soul Battlefield, the unaltered version, charge into his Soul World, and finish him off directly!”

”I understand...”

...

In the perspective of Soul Perception, the light of the Demon Lord’s soul was dimmer than ever, and the Heavenly Dao appeared just like a corpse. Wen Yu focused all his attention to find the faint Light of the soul within the Heavenly Dao’s body—a crystal ball-like cluster with violent and powerful soul power within. However, for a Level 11 powerful expert, this strength was too weak—even far lower than Wen Yu’s current Soul Strength...

Upon sensing this, Wen Yu gritted his teeth, suppressing his fear of the Level 11 powerful expert, his entire body turned into a black light and in an instant, rushed into the body of the Heavenly Dao.

Beside him, seeing this, the Demon Lord exhaled heavily as if he had accomplished something significant. At the same time, the light on his body slowly emerged, and his entire body shrank rapidly as if being dehydrated and melted, disappearing completely within moments.

...

Eleventh Floor of the Heavenly Palace.

As the carbon copy dissipated and dissolved, the power belonging to the carbon copy and the memories of this period flowed continuously into the Demon Lord’s main carbon copy.

Noticing the smooth unfolding of the plan, the Demon Lord remained expressionless, his hands never stopping, as if casually placing chess pieces.

”Check.”

It was like two old men sitting at the entrance of their neighborhood playing chess, but given their identities, the game had another flavor.

”You won.”

The Dominator, straightforwardly, waved his hand, and a new game appeared on the board.

This scene had occurred countless times over the past twenty-plus days.

In the new game, the Dominator made the first move, then alternated between attack and defense, their speed at playing chess was dizzyingly fast.

A voice, as if chatting, came from the Dominator’s mouth.

”Your mood has changed...”

”Mm.”

The Demon Lord answered cluelessly.

”So, your little trick with Tongtian went very smoothly, right?”

The Demon Lord’s hands paused.

”You guess?”

”Heh...”

The Dominator chuckled nonchalantly, casually placing a piece down, then glanced at the space trapping him.

”The power of this barrier is getting weaker, your power is also getting weaker, it seems your tricks are about to complete, is it a few days? One day? Or two?”

The Demon Lord remained silent until the Dominator slowly stood up.

”In that case, I won’t play with you anymore. Actually, I’d really like to see, the guy you consider your backup plan to defeat me, who exactly is he.”

As soon as the Dominator finished speaking, the Demon Lord immediately looked up.

In front, the Dominator’s body was flickering, followed by a rampant white light, terrifying power rapidly impacted the surrounding space barrier.

Then, Demonic Qi surged, and a strange black light blossomed from the Demon Lord’s body, incessantly reinforcing the power of this space.

”You’re crazy, do you know how much of the Demon Realm’s Origin Energy will be consumed by forcefully breaking through the barrier...”

”Oh, just decades of the Demon Realm’s Origin Energy. I do think that since you can use decades of the Demon Realm’s Origin Energy as the cost to try to keep me here forcefully, the threat you’re posing outside is even more significant...”

”So...tsk, tsk, what’s happening outside, I wonder.”

A teasing tone came from the Dominator’s mouth: ”Let me think... the Almighty Demon Vine, and Sequence Number 2, and this inexplicably activated Heavenly Palace Treasure Land, hmm, it should be this, right? Come to think of it, this Sequence Number 2 that never appeared in the previous life does indeed have a quirky feeling, as does the profession of Soul Master...”

”By the way, your main Skill System should be Spirit-based.”

The eerie tone permeated the entire space, the next second, the white light suddenly dissipated, and the Dominator’s figure reappeared in the original position.

”Tsk, tsk, it’s just a little thought, don’t be angry, don’t be upset, let’s play chess.”

Seeing the Dominator’s indifferent attitude, the Demon Lord chuckled dryly and sat back down beside the chessboard.

In the Demon Lord’s plan, the greatest danger was not some unexpected person outside the plan, or a chess piece not acting according to plan...

The real danger, from beginning to end, was merely the Dominator sitting in front of him...

...

The power of the Soul Battlefield surged, Wen Yu’s body transformed into a black light, instantly rushing into the body of the Heavenly Dao.

A familiar sensation arose, and the next second, Wen Yu was standing in a pure white space, with a crystal-clear sphere emitting white light spinning playfully in front of him.
