Chapter 1195: Nine Soul Mountains
A fluctuation containing eternal force transmitted from the mysterious place and erased the rift in an instant, crushing Yang Feng’s black hole.
The shade of regret flashed in Yang Feng’s eyes: “The soul sea is a treasure prepared for Empyreans. As long as anyone strong enough comes, they can collect it. The soul dew, however, is a reward for climbing the soul mountains. It can’t be forcibly taken away.”
Yang Feng stepped on the second soul mountain and walked towards the peak.
Along the way, all kinds of soul monsters appear and attack Yang Feng crazily. A black hole floating next to Yang Feng swallowed and crushed the soul monsters one after another.
Against those soul monsters, only soul force is effective. The black hole formed by Yang Feng is the manifestation of purest soul force.
After Yang Feng devoured Swallow Heavens Ogre Emperor’s traces, he was no longer a stranger to how to form a black hole with soul force. He easily suppressed and devoured the Great Holy rank soul monsters.
As he climbed up the soul mountain and fought the soul monsters, Yang Feng’s soul evolved bit by bit, becoming more formidable.
Great Holy rank powerhouses are rare in the outside world, while Great Holy rank powerhouses proficient in soul battle are even rarer. Only on Myriad Souls Hall’s soul mountains can one see so many Great Warlock rank soul monsters and fight them.
Three days passed in a flash.
After three days of fierce fighting, Yang Feng finally reached the top of the second soul mountain.
The void cracked, soul dew emerged, and a second mysterious soul rune formed in Yang Feng’s spirit sea. Then, a bridge leading to the third soul mountain appeared.
“Amazing! He climbed the second soul mountain in two days!”
“What a terrible monster!”
“With the exception of quasi-Empyreans and Empyreans, the previous record to climb the second soul mountain was three months.”
“How can his soul force be so powerful? It’s as if there’s no limit to it. No matter how powerful he is, his soul is only a Holy rank soul. How can he fight around the clock like that? Isn’t he afraid of damaging his soul origin?”
“…”
When the Great Holies saw Yang Feng reach peak of the second soul mountain, shock flashed in everyone’s eyes.
Although the soul monsters that appear on the soul mountains have no substance, but it takes a lot of soul force to kill them. Ordinary Great Holies must spend one or two months to suppress a soul monster before they can nourish their soul and let their soul transform to a higher level.
When Yang Feng devoured the entire soul sea, he channeled it into the Kunmo Stone. In this way, he can receive pure soul force from the Kunmo Stone to fight continuously and temper his soul.
When he reached the foot of the third soul mountain, Yang Feng took a day to rest and recover to his peak condition, and then began to climb the soul mountain.
Nine days later, Yang Feng reached the peak of the third soul mountain, and another soul rune formed in his spirit sea.
After another 28 days, Yang Feng reached the top of the fourth soul mountain and formed the fourth soul rune.
After another 82 days, Yang Feng reached the top of the fifth soul mountain and successfully formed the fifth soul rune.
“Firmament Holy, you’re really something else! It took you less than a year to climb the fifth soul mountain of Myriad Souls Hall’s nine soul mountains! It’s amazing! Time Lord, who was the fastest among the eight Warlock Emperors of the human race to climb the fifth soul mountain, climbed the fifth soul mountain in five years back in the day. Furthermore, he was already a Great Holy. You’re incredible!”
On the peak of the third mountain, Bluewater Great Holy spoke, an enigmatic glimmer in his eyes.
Although the two mountains are 100 kilometers apart, but Yang Feng and Bluewater Great Holy can still communicate freely.
Yang Feng smiled and said, “It’s just luck!”
Bluewater Great Holy uttered: “Starting from the sixth soul mountain, the soul monsters have substance and can kill you in body and soul! Be careful!”
Yang Feng said, “Thank you!”
The soul monsters on the first five soul mountains are merely strange soul forms that can harm the soul of Great Holies. But they cannot harm the body.
Starting with the sixth mountain, the soul monsters will have a physical body formed from soul force. Consequently, they will be able to attack both the body and soul of Great Holies.
Many of the bones at the bottom of the soul sea belong to Great Holies who died while climbing the sixth and seventh soul mountains.
Yang Feng looked up at the sixth soul mountain and saw that there are only three Great Holies fighting with soul monsters.
After recovering to his peak condition, Yang Feng started climbing the sixth soul mountain.
Halfway up the fourth soul mountain, a handsome Great Holy with a golden ogre horn, a tall and sturdy figure, and a ferocious face, covered in hair like a savage, stared at Yang Feng.
The Great Holy covered in hair like a savage grinned and said, “Waveroot Great Holy, how long do you think it will take him to reach the peak of the sixth soul mountain?”
The handsome Great Holy with a golden ogre horn responded coldly, “Arcane Battle Great Holy! I say a decade! The eight Warlock Emperors of the human race were each peerless prodigies who suppressed the world. Among them, Taboo Lord was the fastest to climb the sixth soul mountain! But even for Taboo Lord, it took 50 years to reach the top back then. Even if Yang Feng surpasses Taboo Lord’s record, it will take him at least a decade to climb the sixth soul mountain.”
Arcane Battle Great Holy grinned and said, “I bet you he can climb the sixth soul mountain within a year! If I win, you will give me three Springs of Immortality. Conversely, if I lose, I will give you three Springs of immortality.
Waveroot Great Holy pondered for a moment and the uttered decisively, “Okay! I accept your bet!”
Arcane Battle Great Holy said: “I’m really looking forward to it! If he can reach the top of the sixth soul mountain within a year, he will be able to leave his name in Myriad Souls Hall! Among the names of Empyreans! By then, as long as Myriad Souls Hall isn’t destroyed, his name will exist forever. This is equivalent to a kind of eternal life.”
Waveroot Great Holy looked at Yang Feng quietly.
With the exception of the powerhouses who are comprehending the mysteries of the soul, the remaining Great Holies on the soul mountains focused on Yang Feng. They want to see if he can create miracle and break another record left by the Empyreans.
When Yang Feng advanced 100 meters on the sixth soul mountain, countless runes shone, and a soul monster with a single strange eye and emanating Great Holy rank fluctuations of power suddenly appeared.
A black hole emerged and directly swallowed the Great Holy rank soul monster with a single strange eye.
The black hole flickered, and light of devour shrouded the Great Holy rank soul monster and devoured its soul and essence.
Wisps of pure soul force gushed out from the Great Holy rank soul monster and poured into Yang Feng, nourishing his soul.
At this time, strange soul chains emerged from the sixth soul mountain, enveloped Yang Feng, and sealed Spirit Osta Fortress, Green Yang Halberd, and the other Empyrean grade secret treasures on Yang Feng.
“I see. Starting from the sixth soul mountain, you can’t use Empyrean grade secret treasures! Xi Shen Armor also had most of its power sealed. However, I still can use the Kunmo Stone. The Kunmo Stone, whose origin is mysterious, should be a treasure above the Eternal grade. That’s how it’s able to invalidate the setting of an Empyrean Sovereign.”
Yang Feng scanned his body with soul force, and his eyes lit up.
Spirit Osta Fortress, an Eternal grade treasure, is sealed. Yet the Kunmo Stone is unaffected by the seal. This shows that the value of the Kunmo Stone is far beyond Yang Feng’s expectation.
After the Great Holy rank soul monster was devoured, Yang Feng continued to move forward. The black hole crashed anything in its way. As soon as the soul monsters appeared, they were swallowed and devoured.
Halfway up the sixth soul mountain.
A Great Holy with a human head and a snake body, with an ice pitchfork in his left hand and a fire spear in his right hand, operating the essences of ice and fire respectively, emanating advanced Great Holy rank fluctuations of power, is fighting a one-eyed, three-headed, and six-armed soul monster.
Ice and fire flickered in the void and swept towards the soul monster.
With a wave of the soul monster’s spear, ripples surged and smashed the ice and fire one by one.
With a flash of light, the soul monster tore the ice and fire, and then appeared in front of the Great Holy and stabbed at him with the spear.
The expression of the Great Holy with a human head and a snake body flickered. He retreated briskly, and a shield appeared on his body.
The soul monster’s spear stabbed into the shield, erupted with terrifying force, and the shield apart, and then stabbed the Great Holy.
The Great Holy unleashed a miserable scream. His soul was wounded. He unleashed all kinds of spells and retreated briskly.
The soul monster stepped forward and appeared in front of the Great Holy. All of a sudden, a black hole emerged and swallowed the soul monster.
The soul monster struggled inside the black hole for a while before turning into dust.
The black hole disappeared, and Yang Feng appeared in the place where the black hole had been.
The eyes of the Great Holy flickered with shock: “So strong! So this is Firmament Holy! He’s just a Holy, yet he can slay such a terrifying soul monster! Incredible!”
The Great Holy saluted Yang Feng and said, “Firmament Holy, I am Fire Ice Great Holy! Thank you for your help.”
