Chapter 707 - 707 373 Proof of the Soul Holders (4000)_2

Chapter 707: 373 Proof of the Soul Holders (4000)_2 Chapter 707: 373 Proof of the Soul Holders (4000)_2 The last one is the Ultimate Dark Entity, also known as the Origin of Darkness.

It possesses unimaginable terrifying abilities, the power to change terrains, to move mountains and seas. Some are even the Progenitors of a group.

In addition to the Ultimate Dark Entity, beasts, wild beasts, and Hazard Spirits all have divisions of lower, middle, and upper ranks, which differentiate their strength.

The dark creatures Casio encountered can all be categorised within this system. For example, the Incorruptible Level, Immortal Level, and Indestructible Dead Blood correspond to beasts, wild beasts, and Hazard Spirits.

Worth noting is that the dark creatures in the World of Calamities have greater aggressiveness, are more dangerous, and are stronger. The dark creatures in the real world escaped from the World of Calamities; they are generally more rational and wiser. After leaving the influence of the World of Calamities, the dark creatures in the real world, although they still retain their twisted nature, are more rational.

However, rationality in the World of Calamities represents weakness.

The more insane a dark creature of the same rank, the stronger it is.

Based on the unique areas of the World of Calamities, dark creatures in these areas have some environmental characteristics and are divided into different groups. Such as the Scarlet Group, Corrupted Group, Crystallized Group, Evil Insect Group etc, dark creatures are everywhere.

Casio feels a bit restless seeing this. Although it is very dangerous here, it is a good place to hunt the dark creatures, gain massive life vibration energy and rapidly increase strength.

Without further consideration, he continues to watch the third type of information.

Soul Holders are those who, like Casio, enter the World of Calamities in the form of Qi. First of all, to become a Soul Holder, one must have a sufficient amount of Qi. That is to say, the minimum threshold is to be at the level of a fighter to be able to condense a physical body capable of action.

To resist the omnipresent influence of the Endless Calamity in the air.

Corresponding to the Soul Holders are the Wraiths.

These are the fighters who died in the real world, whose Qi entities far exceed those of ordinary humans and are difficult to dissipate. They gradually fall from the Surface World to the Deep World, and become mindless Wraiths.

They walk aimlessly on the ground, following their inborn Secret Martial Arts instinct. Either fighting, sleeping, or cultivating. They are each powerful entities, comparable to the Hazard Spirits in strength.

These Wraiths are immortal; even if they are defeated, they will re-condense in a corner of the World of Calamities. But they will be weak and will lose some fragments of Qi, which contain hundreds of years of pure combat experience. Both Soul Holders and other Wraiths can absorb them. However, it is precisely because of this characteristic that Soul Holders and Wraiths will attract each other and attack each other.

Casio continues to think while reading the last book.

This White Tower is called the Shelter Tower, built by the Oyon Civilization in the World of Calamities. Each special area has such a tower that serves as a safe house and provides guidance.

The Shelter Tower possesses miraculous abilities.

The first layer, the Altar of Resurrection.

Succinctly put, the user can resurrect himself using this.

However, it is limited to those who possess five Keystone Runes.

Additionally, each time the possessor resurrects, they need to provide energy.

The energy represented by the Wisdom Runes is also the Blood of Spirit, a full progress bar of Blood of Spirit can let Casio resurrect once.

The energy needs to be injected into the Altar of Resurrection in advance.

Casio isn’t entirely clear on the mechanism inside, it probably has something to do with the bodies composed of Qi and the Wisdom Runes. Qi isn’t the physical body; even if it dissipates, it can still be recollected.

The Wisdom Runes on the Qi body have a connection with the Altar of Resurrection, and can correspond with each other even from a long distance.

It is likely that the Altar of Resurrection attracts the dispersed Qi back little by little, taking a certain amount of time to re-condense a body.

With the existence of the Altar of Resurrection, obviously, Casio can feel much more at ease. After all, exploring the World of Calamities is quite dangerous.

Dark creatures are everywhere, and the environment is hostile.

It can’t even be guaranteed that a Wraith at the fighter’s level won’t be attracted and come over to fight Casio to the death without saying a word.

The second level, the Library of Calamities.

Which is where Casio is now. It stores some intelligence about the World of Calamities, including the detailed information about various dangerous areas and evil groups. It also plays a guiding role.

The third level, the Defense Array.

Its core is a transparent crystal that’s half a person high, and the entire tower body is lined with array trails. Once activated, it can produce a gray protective layer similar to an enchantment barrier, enveloping the White Tower.

To prevent the most important revival altar from being damaged.

As long as there is enough energy, even if the Ultimate Dark Entity appears, the protective gray layer can resist it. This can make the White Tower as safe as a shelter, allowing the Soul Holders to rest assuredly.

It must be noted that entering the World of Calamities with a Qi body will be affected by the endless calamities in the air. If too much time passes, they can lose their sanity, gradually turning into a mad beast. But inside the White Tower with the activated Defense Array, calamities will be filtered out, allowing Soul Holders to return to a state where they can act normally.

Spirit Blood can serve as the energy to maintain the Defense Array.

In addition, the crystal at the core of the Defense Array can also function as a locator, which can be used in conjunction with the map that Casio just obtained.

No matter where Casio is in the World of Calamities, there will be two red dots on the map. One is fixed, which is the position of the Shelter Tower. The other is moving, which is Casio himself.

With this, one can discern location and direction.

So, one won’t lose themselves in various strange environments.

It should also be noted that there isn’t just one Shelter Tower. Every special area in the World of Calamities has a tower that provides safety and purification of calamities.

The towers do not possess the power to teleport between each other, but there are two wonderful ways that can allow Casio to quickly travel back and forth between the special areas of the World of Calamities, without having to take dangerous journeys.

First, leaving a measure of Spirit Blood on the revival altar of each tower. This way, after death, one can choose which tower to be revived and re-form the Qi body.

Second, the third floor of the tower possesses a magical token called “Proof of the Soul Holders.” After obtaining it, Casio doesn’t need to enter the World of Calamities through a fixed tunnel. He only needs to activate the Proof of the Soul Holders, allowing him to enter the World of Calamities anywhere in the Real World. Also, the initial location of the Proof of the Soul Holders is selectable.

Casio can designate any activated Shelter Tower.

With a clap, a pair of hands closed the ancient book.

Casio took a deep breath, digesting the content in his mind.

Suddenly, he found something strange. In his third retrospection, Casio was played the Eerie Night Guest of the Black Rain Villa, and he had killed many dark creatures. However, he had never heard of or encountered a tunnel leading to the World of Calamities.

In the face of his severe torture, all the dark creatures behaved as if they were species from the Real World.

The Black Mechanism also had no information relevant to the World of Calamities.

Something was off.

From the Imperial Period of the Hong Li Empire to the Federal Period of the Hong Li Federation, something must have happened in between that caused a gap in information.

No, this didn’t seem like just an information gap, but rather a conceptual one. Everyone, including the dark creatures themselves, had forgotten the concept of the World of Calamities. It was like during his third retrospection, he faintly felt as if a pair of mysterious hands were preventing the Secret Martial Arts World from interacting with other supernatural forces. The Secret Martial Arts World seemed to be an independent entity, disconnected from other forces.

Moreover, Casio had always wondered whether the Secret Martial Arts World had been in steady decline for centuries simply because of technology advancement and changes in eras? It seemed that these two things didn’t necessarily correlate absolutely. For instance, scientific exercises could provide martial arts practitioners with a better foundation of technique and power.

Behind all of this, it seemed as if a mysterious force was in control. Like the eyes in the fog, watching the world from a high vantage point, occasionally intervening, stirring the threads of the era.

Was it the Organization? Or the immortal Xiadu?

Casio didn’t know.

He only knew that he currently needed to go to the third floor to take the Proof of the Soul Holders. Then he would go to Ash City to hunt down dark creatures, use a portion of Spirit Blood to activate the tower’s Defense Spell Layer, and then formulate the next move.
