151: The Laws of the Soul!

Xu Feiran and He Han also found it inconceivable.

This was the Soldier Soul Profound Realm, and even though Chu Yuan had just accomplished a major feat, it was only because the Seventh Realm anomaly in Withered Eye City was absent for some unknown reason... Did he really think this was his own backyard?

However, the next moment, an extremely faint voice rang out in everyone's ears simultaneously.

"A big one is coming. You all should leave first; otherwise, you will become a burden to me. I naturally have a way to escape..."

Seeing their solemn expressions, Chu Yuan focused his voice and said, "Before entering the Secret Realm, Senior Brother Lü Xuehai gave me something to save my life, so rest assured!"

Yuan Yang didn't think much of it; he had already known when he yielded the space earlier.

It wasn't eavesdropping; Lü Xuehai simply hadn't intended to avoid being heard, and since he hadn't walked far away at the time, coupled with the keen hearing of a Martial Artist...

The expressions of He Han and the other Sixth Realm Cultivators from the First Legion became quite interesting.

The relationship between Lü Xuehai and the Legion Commander was no secret within the First Legion, and many people also knew that their Master was none other than Wei Huang, who had made huge contributions to the founding of the First Legion and had served as Legion Commander in the early days...

Chu Yuan, he was the Legion Commander's Junior Brother?

If they left him here to cover the retreat, were they sure they wouldn't be given endless trouble when they returned...

"Stop dawdling! There is only one Seventh Realm entity now, and their target is most likely me! If we delay any longer, who knows how many Seventh Realm entities there will be!" Chu Yuan urged.

Yuan Yang took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Take care, we will wait for you at the exit... Let's go!"

"Chu Yuan, take care!" He Han and the others also made their decision.

Since Chu Yuan said that Officer Lü had given him something to save his life... he should be confident, right? He couldn't possibly just stay behind to die...

Chu Yuan watched them leave. Just as he had anticipated, the anomaly circling outside the Formation did not appear.

It allowed these people who had broken the 'rules' of the Soldier Soul Profound Realm to leave...

A cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth; it seemed that the Blood Sea Soul Locking Formation posed a significant threat to the other party, which was why it was acting so timidly.

As for whether the other party would call for reinforcements... Chu Yuan felt that given his attractiveness to anomalies, the other party would not give up the desire to 'monopolize' him until all hope was completely lost...

The activity of the Blood Sea Soul Locking Formation gradually subsided, held in check but not released, as if it were brewing an even greater power.

He sat cross-legged in mid-air, closed his eyes, and actually began to Cultivate!

Although the talk of 'Cultivating' was meant for the anomaly, it wasn't a lie; earlier, after refining and absorbing a large number of anomalies, he had gained insights... It was just that, considering the Soldier Soul Profound Realm was not a place for seclusion, he could only temporarily suppress those insights and plan to deal with them after leaving.

But now... it didn't matter.

The Golden Core Great Dao Song covered a wide range, and he had finally pulled a single thread from the countless messy ends.

The name of this thread was... Soul Law!

...

On the periphery of the Blood Sea Soul Locking Formation, Meng Yue suppressed the restlessness in its heart, waiting for Chu Yuan to finish Cultivating.

It ignored the departure of Yuan Yang and the others, fearing that it would scare Chu Yuan and cause him to keep lingering in this strange Formation...

Of course, they were in the Soldier Soul Profound Realm; no Formation was of any use, and they were merely waiting for death inside it;

But... what if it took too long and others discovered them?

Meng Yue did not want other members of its kind to come and share the spoils!

Furthermore, if the Great One discovered Chu Yuan's existence, it wouldn't even be able to get a sip of soup...

Therefore, even though it was very annoyed, it still let those humans leave.

"A temporary insight, and in a dangerous place... he shouldn't be able to Cultivate for long," Meng Yue thought to itself.

It slowly and covertly radiated its power;

Before long, looking from a very distant place, one could vaguely see Withered Eye City shrouded in mist.

However, there was no Formation above this 'Withered Eye City'...

...

Soul...

All living beings have a Soul;

Without a Soul, one is nothing more than a pool of flesh and blood, a pile of rocks, or a static mirage...

Even a Cultivator's Primordial Spirit is, in essence, still a Soul!

And Mental Energy, or even Divine Sense, is nothing more than a derivation of the Soul;

When used for attacks, what is being attacked is likewise the opponent's Soul...

After refining many anomalies, the special qualities contained within those anomalies had undergone a qualitative change;

It was as if a pair of large hands had parted the fog, allowing Chu Yuan to gain a deeper insight into the mysteries of the Soul!

He knew that anyone above the Seventh Realm must have comprehended the power of Law, yet he had never heard that there was any distinction in Rank among Laws;

But Chu Yuan felt that the Rank of the Soul Law must be higher than things like fire, water, and so on.

Not to mention anything else, just in terms of using it against enemies, the lethality efficiency was different...

The contents of Zhao Zheng's cultivation notes surfaced in his mind, and he had new insights;

Unknowingly, the third pattern on the flawless Golden Core within Chu Yuan's body was fully outlined, and new changes occurred!

The patterns twisted, intertwined, and overlapped;

Forming an abstract pattern that seemed to be... a torso?

...

"Why is he still not done!?" Meng Yue felt anxious.

A day had passed, and the tribute had long since ended.

Familiar members of its kind had already asked how things were in Withered Eye City, and whether the humans causing trouble had been eaten by it?

They even jokingly said they wanted to come and watch the spectacle...

Although it had brushed them off, there was always a risk;

Especially since there were a few members of its kind who liked to wander around and look for fun; if they really came over quietly...

Amidst its anxiety, it noticed that Chu Yuan within the Formation suddenly opened his eyes;

An unfathomable aura flashed across his body, as if it were the nature of heaven and earth, containing infinite mysteries!

In an instant, Meng Yue even felt a hint of inferiority...

But afterwards, its appetite became even more voracious!

Although it didn't know what this human had Cultivated, it just felt... he seemed to have become more fragrant, more delicious!?

"Come out! Yes... come out..." it muttered.

Chu Yuan indeed did not intend to keep shrinking back inside the Formation;

The seclusion had ended, and although there were still many gains to be slowly realized and absorbed after returning... this was all that could be improved in the short term;

Golden Core Middle Stage... that was acceptable.

He covertly radiated his Divine Sense, and the thin mist covering the world was fully within his view;

Chu Yuan curled his lips, his fingertips danced, and the Blood Sea Soul Locking Formation above Withered Eye City immediately shifted;

Countless blood-colored chains appeared, whipping and trembling as if in a frenzy, and then shattered inch by inch!

"Explode!"

With a dull thud, countless dust rose up;

The entire Withered Eye City collapsed and sank...

Meng Yue's attention was instantly drawn over, and it was extremely furious;

Even though there were no living things left in the city, this was, after all, its lair... This human, if he wanted to leave, he should just leave; why did he have to do something so superfluous!

Fortunately, that annoying Formation had finally disappeared;

It no longer had any reason to wait, and countless silver-gray mists surged over frantically...
