âWhoosh whoosh whoosh!â
A great amount of world spirit energy was surging toward Abrit. Its density caused it to be visible to the naked eye, resembling a white mist.Â
The huge drain on world spirit energy caused loud tremors all across the Dragon Realm. A lot of mountains were starting to break apart already.
The earth was also rumbling like it was about to collapse at any moment.
âIt has begun!â Qin Lie said darkly. âToo much of the realmâs fundamental energy has been absorbed by your father! If this continues, your realm will be annihilated!â
âAlso, are you starting to feel weak?â
âF-father does seem to be absorbing our flesh and blood energy,â Barett said weakly.
Scott and Mitchell looked gloomy as well. They didnât reply to Qin Lie.
âLeave this to me.â Qin Lie sucked in a deep breath and stared seriously at the three brothers. He said, âWeâve fought together for many years, and I would never try to harm you. Believe me, I will remove the Saint Godâs imprint from your fatherâs soul. Even if your father must enter the ultimate realm, he should achieve his breakthrough somewhere else. The shadow beingsâ world is probably a good choice, donât you agree? Please give me some time to resolve this problem!â
The three brothers watched Qin Lie quietly.
A while later, Scott finally nodded and said, âWeâll trust you one more time, Qin Lie! Warriors, stand aside and make sure you donât interfere with Qin Lieâs work!â
Having obtained  the Demon Dragon Raceâs permission, Qin Lieâs Soul Tree immediately emerged from his avatarâs body.
The Soul Tree transformed into a dark dot before entering Abritâs head.
âThe Thunder Emperor and Shang Mou are also doing the same thing,â Ling Yushi said quietly.
âI seeâŠâ The Ice Emperor looked hesitant. âWhat should we do then?â\nLing Yushi thought to herself for a moment before replying, âIâve merged with the Geocentric Motherlode, so I probably have the power to stop them from achieving a breakthrough as long as theyâre in Spirit Realm. All I need is your permission.â
âDo it!â the Flame Emperor declared.
Qin Shan was the closest one to Shang Mou out of everyone present. He also nodded after some consideration, saying, âDo it, Ling girl.â
Ling Yushiâs expression changed a little, and her soul figure suddenly split into two and entered a spatial rift each.
Everyone knew that she was going to the Thunder Emperor and Shang Mou.
At the same time, Flaming Sun Purgatory.
Qin Lieâs ten-thousand-meter-tall body slowly emerged from the Origin Sea as he spoke with the seven Devil Monarchs through the soul.
Suddenly, thirty four soul shadows appeared from his giant pupils.
Every soul shadow was a soul of Qin Lie. They were all True Souls with the Imperial Soul Monarchsâ memories in them.
All thirty four subsouls slipped into the Galaxy Mirror.
The Galaxy Mirror refracted thirty four different star realms at once, opening thirty four spatial entrances for Qin Lie.
The subsouls vanished from view after that.
At Winged Raceâs Heavenly Wood Realm.
Terry had declared that he would enter secluded cultivation and work toward the ultimate realm not long after his return. He was currently holed up in the Winged Raceâs ancestral ground.
Qin Lieâs soul suddenly flew into the ancestral ground through a mysterious method. No one was able to detect his presence.
Right now, the Winged Raceâs experts led by Kermit were guarding Terry outside the Winged Raceâs ancestral ground.
But not even they were able to detect Qin Lieâs soul.
âStrange, I felt like Qin Lie was here just now,â Stanca said. He was an Abyss Devil mixed-blood, and his eyes were filled with confusion. He shook his head and said, âMaybe itâs because Qin Lie is so powerful that his soul exists everywhere in the universe.â\nâItâs not just you, I also had a feeling. But it only lasted for an instant,â Kermit, the Winged Raceâs patriarch, said.
âHow unusual.â Stanca concentrated on his feelings a bit longer, but he gave up and threw his suspicion to the back of his mind after sensing nothing.Â
The Bone Race, at the declined Eisenberg Family.
Hoodâs small skeletal frame was glowing like jade not long after he had returned.
He was currently sitting inside a huge bone burying ground. The burial ground was filled with his clansmenâs remains.
The remains were shrouded in cold, corpse energy.
All the corpse energy of the remains in the nearby bone burying grounds was converging inside Hood as well.
Hood was looking to achieve a breakthrough.
A dark dot appeared out of nowhere, but it lasted for only an instant.
Inside the bone burying ground, Hood trembled before becoming still once more.
Spirit World, at the Satorius Family.
The old Spirit Race clansman who had just returned from the outer realms was holding the Profound Heaven Spirit Orb and drawing wisps of rich world spirit energy into himself.
A soul presence suddenly appeared in one of the white wisps he was absorbing.
However, the old Spirit Race clansman didnât notice it at all. He didnât put up any resistance as it entered his bloodline.
An old Three-Eyed Race female was cultivating inside a tall stone palace.
A tiny vortex was spinning inside her third eye.
The vortex was pulling streams of world spirit energy into her body.
Although her other eyes were shut, her third eye glowed brighter and brighter until it looked like the brightest star.
Suddenly, a ray of light appeared out of nowhere and entered her third eye.
She subconsciously closed her third eye after the ray of light had invaded her body.\nQin Lieâs subsouls were able to locate all the returnees with uncanny precision despite them being scattered throughout the realms of the Multihand Race, the Star Moon Race, and the Titan Race.
All thirty four subsouls had invaded the minds of the hasty returnees using a kind of unnoticeable secret art.
Qin Lie knew full well that this was the start of the second battle between the Saint God and himself.
At Flaming Sun Purgatory.
Qin Lieâs one-level Soul Altar flew out of his pupils. A strange orb was shining inside it.
It was none other than the Soul Suppressing Orb, the Soul Raceâs ultimate artifact.
The Soul Suppressing orb looked like an eye that was embedded into the Soul Altar.
Qin Lieâs True Soul, Soul Altar, and the Soul Suppressing Orb were all connected to one another.
He could feel his subsouls operating in an orderly fashion the moment he concentrated.
The returneesâ powerful souls appeared in his soul as grayish soul balls.
Every ball of soul represented the soul of a returnee.
His subsouls were quietly sneaking their way toward the grayish soul balls.
His subsoulsâ every move was reflected inside his True Soul. Their will and intelligence were all connected to one another.
A huge commotion erupted from the returneesâ souls as they lashed out in fury.
âHow dare you invade my soul!â
âYou are courting death!â
âGet out of my head!â
All thirty four souls shouted and lashed out at him at the same time. He knew in that moment that his presence had been noticed.
He felt great resistance from them.\n
