Death… And Me

Chapter 901 - Green Light

There was a reason why Rean took the first Soul Power humans into the sect. Thatʼs because one wouldnʼt understand how to use Soul Power without at least feeling it first. Itʼs just like how Rean mentioned when he first got enough to use it. He would eventually have enough Soul Power on his own as time passed, thanks to his Light Element. But because he didnʼt know he had it, he might have lived his life without ever using that power.

The first humans found to have Soul Power were then brought into the Soul Hall, where they learned how to use it. Once they finished their training, they would be sent to the several countries taking form in Wringan Continent. All they needed to do was to let some Soul Power run inside those who had a score of above 20 points. Once that was done, those people would be able to feel their own Soul Power in their minds.

That being said, by the time a week had gone by, the Soul Hallʼs disciples were all gone from the Freedom Sect. They were all placed in cities where Reanʼs Healing Equipment had been on sale and are now ready to use their own Soul Power on others.

As for the reaction of the humans, they were obviously excited by the news. 99% of the humans were definitely ex-slaves under the Zasfinsʼ control. They knew about Soul Power, this foreign strength that allowed the Zasfins to stay on top of the world for so long. How could they not be interested in it?

Because of that, the Freedom Healing SA business and its partnersʼ profit suddenly skyrocketed. The number of Soul Measuring Orbs placed in various cities of the continent increased as well. Whether they were cultivators or ordinary humans, all of them wanted to awaken this amazing trait.

Rean, of course, followed all of that closely and was very happy with the result that came in the following weeks. ”This is a necessary step for the human race. Or should we call ourselves Zasfins as well? It will be hard to draw out the line since the main factor, Soul Power, is no longer exclusively for the Zasfins.”

Qia agreed with Rean, saying, ”Indeed. However, our bodies still have their differences. I wonder if humans will now develop those crystal scales over their skins because of Soul Power.”

Rean shrugged his shoulders as he said in response, ”That I do not know. But if they do, so be it. That will be one more step into achieving coexistence between both races.”

Roan was more interested in something else, though. ”Thatʼs good and all. However, we have to see how the Zasfins will react to it. Also, we donʼt know whether the Formation Guild will accept your offer or not. Donʼt forget that the Soul Rulers are still the rulers of the Zasfin world. If they say no, the Formation Guild wonʼt accept your offer even if they want to.”

”Well, thereʼs nothing I can do about it. Letʼs hope theyʼre reasonable. After all, they wonʼt have the communication system if they refuse it,” Rean answered as if he was expecting such a question.

In any case, one thing was certain, the Zasfin race also went into an uproar when they got the news.

”Humans with Soul Power? Bullshit!”

”Who the hell is spreading these lies?”

”I heard from a friend that lives in Freedom City that this is not a lie. Heʼs a Zasfin Merchant there, and he has seen a few humans with Soul Power appearing after the Freedom Sectʼs announcement.”

”What?! That canʼt be! Soul Power should only be used by the Zasfin race!”

”We need to get rid of all the humans with Soul Power straight away. We canʼt let that lowly race use the power of a superior race like ours!”

”And how exactly will you do that? We have an agreement with the demon beasts and humans to not touch Wringan Continent for the next thousand years! If we decide to attack, we will definitely suffer a lot more since weʼre at a disadvantage when it comes to combat power.”

”What are the Soul Rulers doing? Are they going to let humans sully our divine power just like that?!”

Those kinds of statements were appearing all around the Zasfin continents. One must not forget that Rean also transmitted that broadcast to the Palif Empireʼs cities that had his antennas. Obviously, it would be impossible to cover that information with so many Zasfins listening.

In the Soul Rulers, the new Soul Rulersʼ Head Master, Sevinia, was currently having a headache. She had to call a meeting between the Zasfins of the Soul Rulers Organization. ”I knew those twins had Soul Power. But I didnʼt expect that Reanʼs Light Element could awaken other humansʼ Soul Power. Things are definitely getting out of control.”

However, Duran Hafel, the so-called new strongest Zasfin, didnʼt seem very concerned with that. ”What are you afraid of? The humans only have a single continent, while our Zasfin race almost has half of the planet, just like the demon beasts. So what if they develop Soul Power? That only means we will have no need for Bloodline Soul Marks anymore. Donʼt forget, it was our reliance on those marks that made us look like a joke. Now that humans have Soul Power, we wonʼt be able to use it anymore. Perhaps now the Zasfins will awaken from their dreams of superiority.”

Duran wasnʼt the only Transition Realm Zasfin unconcerned with the situation. The other ancestors of the Soul Rulers Organization didnʼt seem to care that much either. ”Weʼve already drafted the new approach of our race regarding training and cultivation. Donʼt forget that with the humans now at Wringan Continent, we wouldnʼt need the Bloodline Soul Mark Formations anymore. Instead, we should focus on our forces. Humans have a very, very long path ahead to become any real threat to us,” said Vance, another ancestor.

In the end, the ancestors simply didnʼt want to create a new problem. For them, the opening of the Bestial Sacred Land in a few weeksʼ time took precedence. Any possible conflict with the humans was completely out of the question until then, and it would still be uncertain if the demon beasts really succeeded in opening the path to the Realm of Gods.

Sevinia felt her headache growing as she thought, ʼItʼs easy for you to say that when all of you are leaving. You know what? Fuck it all! Iʼm already busy enough trying to put the Zasfins back on track after losing the war. I wonʼt care about the humans anymore.ʼ

Sevinia then looked at one of the Soul Rulersʼ elders, a man who was also a member of the Formation Guild. ”You guys do whatever you want. Just make sure it wonʼt bring any harm to our Zasfin race. If what you said about this new communication system is really true, then I wonʼt intervene.”

Sure enough, she also received the report of the Formation Guild. Since she already decided to not care anymore, she simply left that task for them to resolve.

Naturally, the Formation Master was delighted to hear that. ”Thank you, Headmaster.”

And just like that, Reanʼs offer got the green light of the Soul Rulers and the Formation Master Guild.
