Chapter 357: Essence Soul Seal! Firefly Dream Spirit, Legendary Beast from the Remote Antiquity Era!
A familiar cry.
Oracle Phantom Spirit!
At this moment, a clear cry formed a starlight barrier that blocked the monster phantom formed by the black patterns.
As it roared, it emitted intense soul fluctuations, as if it could penetrate everything.
The starlight barrier glowed brightly, and the cry of the Oracle Phantom Spirit became louder and louder.
Wang Che’s eyes flickered.
The timing of the appearance of the Oracle Phantom Spirit was indeed ingenious.
From the moment it entered this special cave and saw the other party, it should have been here long ago.
Yet, it did not appear until now.
Now, Wang Che could naturally tell that the Oracle Phantom Spirit should be using the Heavenly Balance Order.
…
In the starlight barrier, there was a phantom like the Scale of Heaven that was formed by a mysterious power.
The roar of the monster phantom had already destroyed the endless dark energy.
However, at the same time, the light of the starlight barrier slowly weakened.
Even the energy of the array was weakening.
The Heavenly Balance Order was indeed a little abnormal. This soul skill that balanced everything seemed to be partial to enemies.
“It’s not helping me…” Wang Che whispered, “It’s helping that egg!”
The egg contained a very special evil energy.
At the same time, the moment the Thorny Fire Badger was infected by the egg, there were also life fluctuations inside.
This meant that this egg was indeed nurturing a soul pet.
Wang Che wanted to try using the Three Sacred Universe Cleansing Array of the cultivation world to purify this evil energy.
There were many cleansing-type formations. He chose this because it was more suitable.
Because Wang Che happened to have three soul pets himself, and they matched the three demon beasts needed by the array, from the looks of it, the effect was naturally not bad.
The treasure light of the purified egg gradually disappeared, but there was no longer that strange feeling!
However, the evil energy still had a faint consciousness.
Of course, this was also within Wang Che’s expectations.
“This evil energy is indeed similar to the Heavenly Devils…”
Wang Che looked at the monster phantom formed by the black patterns.
Similar meant that they were related.
If it was really a Heavenly Devil, this simplified and improved Three Sacred Universe Cleansing Array could not completely purify it.
However, it was still possible to weaken it.
Wang Che narrowed his eyes and soul power erupted from his palm. The Myriad Treasures Dao Palace martial soul appeared and flew into the air, gradually growing larger.
A palace like the Nine Heavens Divine Palace glowed brightly and emitted a supreme aura that was enough to suppress everything.
The first two levels were engraved with countless patterns that seemed to be alive. The patterns moved and suppressed the soul!
Under the array, the black patterns became smaller and smaller. The monster phantom seemed to be melted and gradually dissipated!
“Shriek!”
At this moment, the Oracle Phantom Spirit seemed to have sensed everything. It immediately retracted the starlight barrier and immediately turned to Wang Che, urging him.
It asked Wang Che to stop!
“Are you worried about the life in the egg?” Wang Che slowly asked, “Are you worried that it will lose its life because of this evil energy?”
“Shriek!”
The Oracle Phantom Spirit swung its tail and blinked.
The next moment, its eyes lit up and shot a light into Wang Che’s eyes.
Information surged into his mind.
A moment later, Wang Che frowned slightly. With a glance, he immediately retracted the Myriad Treasures Dao Palace martial soul.
Then, Wang Che’s eyes shook as a huge humanoid phantom rose from his body!
The terrifying aura caused the surrounding space to tremble.
As soon as the Essence Soul martial soul appeared, Wang Che did not waste time. His palm moved slightly and outlined a mysterious spirit pattern in the air.
“Seal!”
The shrinking black patterns were instantly surrounded by the seal Wang Che had set up and imprinted on the egg.
Then, it slowly disappeared. There were only patterns that looked like crystals shimmering on the egg.
Wang Che grunted and immediately retracted his martial soul. He took out a medicinal pill and fed it to himself.
The array consumed a lot of soul power, and the Essence Soul martial soul consumed even more.
Especially the restriction array formation just now which was a high-level spirit sealing array driven by soul energy. It was very special.
The stronger the soul of the target, the stronger the sealing restriction.
As the Oracle Phantom Spirit had said, after leaving the evil energy, the life in the egg would indeed disappear.
Of course, more importantly, Wang Che could not completely purify this evil energy now.
He could only seal it for the time being.
Then, he would bring it out and give those research bases or Heavenly Kings a headache.
The array disappeared, and the egg did not emit any treasure light, causing the cave to instantly turn dark.
The little caterpillar lit a fire with its tail and surrounded it with the Magnetic Sword and Bear Treasure.
“I’m fine. I just need to rest.” Wang Che said.
On the other side, the Oracle Phantom Spirit floated to the egg and wrapped its tail around it, gently kissing it.
“My luck is really bad.”
Wang Che glanced at the Oracle Phantom Spirit.
The Oracle Phantom Spirit had told him something.
This was indeed no longer the Heavenly Peak Mountain.
Instead, it was the cave space constructed by the Oracle Phantom Spirit at the bottom of the Heavenly Peak Mountain.
That egg… was its relative.
They were originally of the same race and were originally a very ancient mental-type soul beast, the Firefly Dream Spirit.
How ancient was this soul beast?
Wang Che did not know because he had never heard of it.
According to the Oracle Phantom Spirit, it would take at least ten thousand years for a special race like them to hatch.
As soon as it hatched, it had extremely high intelligence and knowledge. Its cultivation speed was extremely fast.
At the same time, this race was very interesting.
They took a long time to hatch, but their lifespan was extremely short. After hatching, they would die within a hundred years.
Interestingly, their deaths only turned them into eggs again. Their consciousness returned to zero, and their memories remained. They hatched for another ten thousand years and were born again. They would inherit the memories and continue cultivating.
Like a system bug, they could cultivate endlessly.
Therefore, every hundred years after birth and cultivation, they would find an extremely hidden place to transform into eggs again and wait for the next ten thousand years to hatch.
Wang Che had seen several similar cycles in the cultivation world.
However, it did not take that long.
“In terms of time… there’s a high chance that the Firefly Dream Spirit is a soul beast from the Remote Antiquity Era. It’s very ancient. Moreover, this circulation method can basically be said to be guaranteed a million years of cultivation. No matter how slow the cultivation is, it can be guaranteed.”
“Moreover, it can definitely reach such a high cultivation level… It’s a little ridiculous.” Wang Che muttered.
In the Remote Antiquity Era, there were not many soul beasts that had the potential to cultivate to a million years.
There were only a handful of them.
Even without the subsequent human battles, not many soul beasts could cultivate to a million years.
A million-year cultivation guarantee sounded a little unbelievable.
“This is probably unacceptable for soul beasts of the Remote Antiquity Era…”
Wang Che shook his head slightly.
The soul beast battles of the Remote Antiquity Era were much crueler than now.
The heavens had given the Firefly Dream Spirit this magical ability, but it had also given them some bad flaws.
Their weakness was that to other soul beasts, if they ate them, their lifespan would increase greatly!
They could even cultivate to a million years!
This was basically a priceless treasure.
For this reason, the Firefly Dream Spirit had rarely appeared in the vision of soul beasts since the Remote Antiquity Era. In order to avoid the slaughter and fighting of countless soul beasts, they constantly improved themselves, learned evolution, and had the ability to transform to protect themselves.
However, sometimes, the transformation could be seen through. In order to escape, they kept learning to evolve and had the ability to travel through space.
However, sometimes, space would also be sealed by other soul beasts that were good at spatial power. They kept learning to evolve and had the ability to predict fortune and danger in advance.
However, predicting fortune meant that they wanted to spy on the Heavenly Dao.
Of course, they did not know what the Heavenly Dao was, but they had obtained this ability.
The heavens did not allow it.
That was how Wang Che interpreted it.
The Heavenly Dao was unpredictable. Any world had its own rules.
Predicting any future was a provocation to the rules of time and the Heavenly Dao of the world.
They often had to pay a huge price.
After obtaining this ability, the Firefly Dream Spirit was cursed by the heavens. As long as it hatched, it would definitely be accompanied by bad luck. Once other living beings encountered it, those living beings would also be accompanied by bad luck.
Under the bad luck, the number of Firefly Dream Spirits decreased.
Even after hatching, they would not easily appear in the eyes of other soul beasts.
They would rather cultivate slowly and not go out to seek resources…
“How tragic…” Wang Che sighed inwardly.
The tragic thing was that his situation was even worse.
He had seen it. Not only had he seen it, but he had also come into contact with it.
This meant that he would have endless bad luck in the future.
The Oracle Heavenly King had said that the others who had seen the Oracle Phantom Spirit were already dead.
This curse was most likely formed by the Heavenly Dao.
If he wanted to break it, he had to resist the Heavenly Dao of this world and deceive the heavenly secrets.
It was not surprising to say that the Oracle Phantom Spirit was a Karma Beast.
What happened later was also related to this.
More than ten thousand years ago, at the end of the Remote Antiquity Era, these two Firefly Dream Spirits chose an extremely hidden treasure land and turned into eggs.
This treasure land was the Transversal Peak Mountain Range ten thousand years ago.
At that time, there was almost nothing here, so even if bad luck was about to happen, it would not threaten the two of them.
However, the plan was very good.
Unfortunately, they did not expect that thousands of years later, another world would begin to invade this world.
The world changed drastically, and the ground was covered in creatures.
Under the endless station, the soil cracked, the mountains and rivers were destroyed, and the Transversal Peak Mountain Range was also greatly shaken.
Due to their relatively hidden location and the special space, the effects were not as serious.
However, after a calamity, bad luck struck.
A dying Dark Beast happened to enter the cave they were in.
After the Dark Beast died, soul energy invaded the two eggs…
Wang Che looked at the distant Oracle Phantom Spirit… and was speechless.
“Ssss…”
The little caterpillar let out a cry and rubbed its head against Wang Che’s calf, as if to comfort him.
It could feel the subtle emotions in Wang Che’s heart.
No matter how careful the Firefly Dream Spirit was, it chose an unknown area and even created a cave inside the Heavenly Peak Mountain. However, bad luck was coming and it could not be stopped.
Later on, the Dark Beast was a monster from another world and was extremely ferocious and terrifying.
Its soul energy had violent and evil dark magic power. It was obvious that this monster’s soul energy had invaded it…
Fortunately, the cultivation of these two Firefly Dream Spirits was powerful enough. Even when hatching, they had extremely powerful strength.
After all, it had cultivated for so many years.
Therefore, it had been resisting for nearly a thousand years.
One of the Firefly Dream Spirits could not resist anymore. It knew that if it was still in the egg, it would not be able to unleash its strength.
If this continued, it would only be corroded slowly and be devoured by the soul energy of the Dark Beast.
One of them had to hatch to control this situation.
Therefore, one of the eggs absorbed the soul energy of the other and let one of the Firefly Dream Spirits hatch first.
This one was the current Oracle Phantom Spirit.
However, even though the Dark Beast’s soul energy had been absorbed, it had not finished absorbing it.
A very small portion of the remaining soul energy combined with this Firefly Dream Spirit’s life force. Coupled with the gathering of the soul power essence of heaven and earth in the Transversal Peak Mountain Range, various combinations caused it to produce a mysterious power.
In other words, it had become a demon spirit-type soul pet!
It was no longer the previous mental-type soul pet, Firefly Dream Spirit.
This was all the information the Oracle Phantom Spirit had given Wang Che.
After resting for a while, Wang Che stood up.
The current Oracle Phantom Spirit was different from the original Firefly Dream Spirit.
The difference was that it could control its Curse of Misfortune ability.
Not everyone who saw it would be plagued by bad luck.
Wang Che walked over and said, “Send us out of here. The Firefly Dream Spirit inside should be fine for the time being.”
The Three Sacred Universe Cleansing Array stripped the soul energy from the egg and purified a portion of it but that was all.
The Dark Beast’s soul energy had absorbed a lot of the Firefly Dream Spirit’s soul energy and become much stronger.
If not for the fact that the Oracle Phantom Spirit had hatched in advance and used its power to stabilize it, this egg should have hatched from the Dark Beast.
Therefore, the purification of the array was only partially weakened.
However, Wang Che used his Essence Soul martial soul to seal it.
With the power of the Essence Soul martial soul, it was basically fine.
This time, the Oracle Phantom Spirit was found, but he obtained nothing.
He also confirmed the existence of this curse.
“My luck might be extremely bad in the future…”
Thinking of this, Wang Che felt that something was wrong.
What was luck?
In the Earth Fire Competition, Wang Che was lucky to be able to find six Life Origin Stones.
The little caterpillar’s Emperor Ice Flame, the Netherworld Ghost Flame, and the Green Earth Core Flame were all closely related to luck.
If their luck was too bad, they might not get anything.
“Shriek!”
The Oracle Phantom Spirit turned around and looked at Wang Che, but it did not answer.
“What are you trying to say?”
Wang Che asked, “That evil energy has already fought with the Firefly Dream Spirit inside for too long. Moreover, it has absorbed your portion. After fighting for thousands of years, as you think, it’s basically impossible to separate. Otherwise, it won’t live. Humans shouldn’t be able to resolve it. However, if you’re willing, I can help you contact some powerful humans. Perhaps they have a way now.”
This was definitely the experience of humans who had fought the Dark Beasts for countless years and studied soul beasts.
After all, humans had defeated the Dark Beasts.
The situation of the Firefly Dream Spirit was very similar to the birth of a demon-type soul beast.
At that time, many soul beast eggs had been infected by the energy of the Dark Beasts.
However, because the Firefly Dream Spirit was too special, and their situation was also too special, the Oracle Phantom Spirit was ultimately a demon spirit soul beast, not a devil-type soul beast.
Wang Che could think of a way himself, but he was too lazy to think.
It was a thankless task.
“Shriek shriek!”
The Oracle Phantom Spirit shook its head.
It rejected Wang Che’s suggestion.
“After you transform, you can hide the curse power on your body. As long as you don’t attack, even if humans see you, they won’t be affected by your Curse of Misfortune.”
Wang Che sighed inwardly.
That’s right, the Oracle Phantom Spirit was no longer the Firefly Dream Spirit.
If it changed its form, as long as it did not reveal its true body, it would be fine if others saw it.
At the same time, it would not be unlucky.
However, the ability to predict fortune was still there. Using this ability would also bring bad luck.
The Oracle Phantom Spirit still shook its head.
Since the suggestion was rejected, Wang Che could only tell the Oracle Heavenly King the truth.
“Then you have to be mentally prepared.”
Wang Che pointed at the egg and said, “One day, the seal will loosen. If the soul energy inside is not completely purified, something like today will happen again.”
This was bad luck.
In today’s situation, even this Firefly Dream Spirit’s egg could not hold on anymore.
The reason was that the heaven and earth soul power in the Transversal Peak Mountain Range had thinned. At the same time, Earth Fire kept spewing out from the ground, causing the space in this cave to be unstable.
Many disasters appeared, making it impossible for the Oracle Phantom Spirit to cope.
As a result, the soul energy aura in the egg leaked out. Even many soul beasts in the cave were temporarily infected and became devil-type soul beasts.
Fortunately, it was only temporary…
Otherwise, it would be even more troublesome…
Wang Che said that his luck was indeed affected because this had to happen at this time.
Moreover, Wang Che looked at the Thorny Fire Badger.
“It discovered this cave… You guided it, right?” Wang Che suddenly asked.
He thought that if he had discovered this cave immediately, he would not have come easily.
It was too strange to come here without knowing anything.
With the Oracle Heavenly King around, wouldn’t it be good to come with her?
However, the appearance of the Thorny Fire Badger and its words made Wang Che less wary of this cave.
Coupled with the thick fog that appeared on the Heavenly Peak Mountain, they could not sense the outside world.
Therefore, he entered with the Thorny Fire Badger to take a look.
However, on second thought, the coincidences were too strange!
“Shriek…”
The Oracle Phantom Spirit nodded in embarrassment.
It whimpered a few times.
“Moreover, you knew long ago that I could help you resolve it by guiding me here?”
Wang Che looked at the egg and said slowly, “Back in the Earth Fire Competition, you actually planned to help me from the start, right? If you hadn’t appeared in front of me, this wouldn’t have happened.”
“Shriek…”
The Oracle Phantom Spirit floated around Wang Che and apologized.
“You used the prediction ability?” Wang Che’s eyes darkened, “It was in a very dangerous situation. You wanted to save your kind, so you used this ability on it and predicted my appearance?”
