The Purgatory Calamity
Chapter 682 - 644: Second Soul_1

Chapter 682: Chapter 644: Second Soul_1

In the Sea of Consciousness, that Filthy Essence seemed to be the product of some rule.

It had no spiritual consciousness, yet it followed a specific law, desiring to find something.

Pang Jian acutely sensed that what it sought was actually his own Spiritual Soul.

Unfortunately, his Immortal Primordial Spirit, which had merged with fate and ventured into the Outer Star River for battle, was not currently present in his Sea of Consciousness.

It was precisely because it was absent that the Filthy Essence did not sense the fate, instead noticing him and actively flew over.

The fate derived from nature’s spiritual energy has always been in conflict with the essence of Filth Alien Power.

The endless struggles between the warriors of the Alien Tribes of the Fifth Realm and the Human Race’s powerful warriors could also be seen as a war between Filth Alien Power and Spiritual Energy.

If one were to say that these two types of natural energies possessed their own volition, then it would be they who were orchestrating behind the scenes.

This Filthy Essence was supposed to create a level ten supreme being, supposed to integrate into the heart of a strong individual, causing a fundamental transformation in the Alien Bloodline Crystal Chain.

Yet it had inadvertently drifted into his own Sea of Consciousness.

Looking at the current situation, when a Human Race cultivator became sufficiently powerful and their dantian was filled with the crystals of Filth Alien Power, they too would gain the favor of Filthy Essence.

Could it be said that the Human Race could also ascend to the Supreme through Filthy Essence and transform into True Gods?

Just like the Demon Gods of the Demon Race?

Pang Jian thought deeply and found that among the legends of the various Human Race Sects in Purgatory, there seemed to be not a single Human True God who had achieved godhood through Filth Alien Power.

Even the so-called demonic cultivators, such as the forces of the Blood Prison Sect, Bone Gate, and the Black Wood Sect, seek to become True Gods through fate.

Could it be that he was about to become an exception?

In the Sea of Consciousness, the grey, dim alie-glow representing the Filthy Essence patiently ceased movement.

It was as if it was waiting, waiting for Pang Jian’s Spiritual Soul to return before merging at that moment.

Meanwhile, Pang Jian, present within the Mysterious Fog of the Fifth Realm, found his connection to the seven continents dramatically deepen.

He even felt a kind of kinship towards those seven continents.

It seemed that as long as he possessed that Filthy Essence, he could freely control the seven continents of the Fifth Realm and the ubiquitous Filth Alien Power everywhere.

He had no doubt that possessing that Filthy Essence would greatly enhance his combat power in the Fifth Realm.

——And this was without merging it with his Spiritual Soul.

"What a pity, I became a True God through fate first," he murmured softly in the fog, pondering how he might utilize or expel this Filth Essence.

He feared that with this thing in his body, it could affect his connection with the Immortal Primordial Spirit and that fate might reject it.

"Crack!"

There came a peculiar sound from inside an unknown star beyond the skies, from within the caves at the heart of the earth.

This sound reached directly into his brain.

He, present within the Mysterious Fog on the Fifth Layer of Purgatory, suddenly noticed that under the power of the "Original Demon Fusion Spell," amidst streaks of crimson lightning piercing through, the God Status of Youkui abruptly shattered.

The emerald-like crystal-clear God Status suddenly broke into many crystals, with Youkui’s Origin of Gods also dissolving within.

Inside the liquid Origin of Gods, countless soul imprints suddenly filled Pang Jian’s divinity.

Pang Jian’s consciousness covered and erased Youkui’s, engraving his own traces within.

In an instant, the Origin of Gods changed hands.

And Youkui perished in an instant!

The shattered pieces of crystal were the core Divine Skills Youkui had comprehended throughout his life.

Soul Capture, Ghost River, Soul Forbidden, and many other profound arcanes related to the Spiritual Soul spread throughout each broken crystal.

"Eh!"

Suddenly, Pang Jian felt he had an additional soul.

A liquid state, floating amid the many shattered crystals, and not yet fully solidified... Spiritual Soul.

"Soul Transfer Skill!"

The Soul Secret Technique that Youkui had mastered suddenly flashed into his mind.

His memories, his life’s realizations, his thoughts and wills, duplicated and imprinted a copy, which he injected into that unformed Spiritual Soul.

It was like one "me" being infused into another "me."

The other "me," which was originally blank, only held the essence of my soul.

Those experiences, memories, realizations, and consciousness, once merged with this essence of the soul, quietly enriched the blank "me," abruptly turning it into the real "me."

The Soul Transfer took shape in the blink of an eye, as a cold ghostly shadow arose within the still "Lava Furnace" shaped Primordial Spirit.

The fire and water vortexes that were smelting suddenly stopped, and the cold ghostly shadow appeared above the magma, with all the fragmented crystals floating nearby.

"The Second Soul!"

Pang Jian in the Purgatory was greatly shaken.

Within the Mysterious Fog, a slender crack quietly opened behind the true form of Pang Jian.

The power of "Purgatory Gate" was suddenly released, turning the light within the narrow crack into a field of Thunderous Lightning.

The cold ghostly shadow, those fragmented crystals, flew out from the crack filled with Thunderous Lightning, and abruptly appeared behind the true form of Pang Jian.

Then in a flash, they entered Pang Jian’s Spirit Sea of Consciousness.

The Filthy Essence that had been waiting for Pang Jian’s Spiritual Soul to return, prepared to fuse at any moment, didn’t hesitate at all as it immediately began merging with Pang Jian’s Second Soul and those fragments of God Status.

...

Outside the sky.

Upon a mysterious star shrouded in a ghostly chill, stood a grand Earth Palace.

Around the Earth Palace, rivers carrying the souls of all beings undulated, constantly circling and flowing around the Palace.

"Youkui is dead."

Zimo, the Supreme God of the Ghost Clan, opened his eyes from meditation.

His skin was pale, his figure slender, and there was a hint of frailty in his features.

His true form in the Outer Star River bore a high resemblance to his manifestation, Ling Yimo, in Purgatory.

At this moment, within the depths of one of his pupils, the image of Youkui’s shattered God Status appeared.

He summoned Divine Power to trace back in time.

He saw that in the Earth Heart Cave, the Lava Furnace reverted to the past, transformed into a dazzling Star River, into Pang Jian’s seven-color Immortal Primordial Spirit.

The Origin Demon Sword, Thunder Pond, Five Thunders Bombardment, including the Teleportation Array corresponding to the Bronze-faced God, all flickered as if disappearing into the past.

"Pang Jian!"

Having seen the past, Zimo naturally understood the truth.

"Gui Li, tell the God Spirits outside, Pang Jian of Purgatory World has appeared in the starry sky above the Mysterious Fog!"

"I shall inscribe the location coordinates for you now. Have the nearby God Spirits pursue him!"

As his voice faded, the vast Earth Palace rose thunderously from the ghostly star.

In the cold and desolate vacuum, the Palace began to drift, covering millions of miles in a breath.

"He Motian, Ti Wei!"

"This Human junior has escaped from Purgatory and killed Youkui under my command. Please arrange your men to intercept him!"

Zimo’s divine voice spread through the Earth Palace, creating ripples on the surfaces of passing stars and stirring the various God Spirits.

Suddenly, many stars shone ten times brighter.

...

"Whoosh!"

The Source Demon abruptly expanded a thousandfold, taking on the appearance of Pang Jian surrounded by seven-color God Light. Unrestrained, he spread his divine and Demonic Energy, successfully drawing the attention of numerous God Spirits.
