Chapter 706: Soul Law

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After the crowd left the Starry Sky Castle, they traveled south under Boll’s direction. They rode Twin-legged Flying Dragons. A great rift valley that stretched for 10,000 miles quickly appeared in front of them. If they observed the valley from a high altitude, it would seem like a large mark left by a blade.

Corolla Great Rift Valley, known as the most beautiful scar in the Far West Land, appeared in front of the Corpse Wizard King and his companions.

On the journey, Yang Ling had assumed that Corolla Great Rift Valley would be narrow, dark and eerie. He assumed that it would be filled with tangled streams, wild weeds, and rugged stony terrain. When he arrived in the sky over Corolla Great Rift Valley, however, he discovered that he had been gravely mistaken. A completely different scene appeared in front of him.

In the distance, there were mountains rising from lush primitive forests that stretched on continuously, and the hillsides were covered with pretty reddish-purple and yellow flowers. There was also a vast grassland with greenish shrubs, weeds, and fragrant flowers. There were glistering lakes in the depths of the grassland filled with water from the mountains. The rift valley’s bottom was flat and smooth, with white clouds fluttering over it.

Corolla Great Rift Valley had lush grass and verdant forests; it was full of life. It seemed like a hidden paradise that would please anyone. But the air was filled with obscure Energy Ripples. The Energy Ripples were indistinct, and it was difficult to detect them. It seemed like a powerful Protective Magical Formation Spell was set up inside the valley.

“Sir, you can go into the rift valley through its entrance, and you will arrive shortly at a lake. The Sound Demon that sold the Star Indicators in the Starry Sky Castle resided there.” Boll sat nervously on a Twin-legged Flying Dragon. When he saw Yang Ling waving his hand and summoning dozens of powerful Twin-legged Flying Dragons, he’d discarded any ideas about putting up a resistance.

Boll wasn’t very strong, but he was quick-witted, and he understood clearly that he couldn’t deal with an expert at the level of Yang Ling.

“Let’s go in on the ground.” After Yang Ling detected the obscure Energy Ripples in the air, he muttered to himself for a moment before he descended to the ground with the group. This way, he could avoid the unknown Magical Formation Spell in the air, and he would also show respect to the Sound Demon.

Yang Ling was very powerful, but he still didn’t dare take a Dimensional Merchant with unfathomable powers lightly. After all, a Dimensional Merchant was usually a Dimensional Wanderer, and they had unfathomable powers. They were even a bit stronger than small Divine Branches’ Core Deities.

Swoosh!

The ground was covered in weeds and shrubs. After they’d been walking for a while, a cold wind suddenly started blowing, and the obscure Energy Ripples became more intense. It was obvious that a Magical Formation Spell with a large scope was set up on the ground.

As the cold wind blew over them, Boll looked at the land, which was covered with dead leaves, and his body couldn’t help but shiver. The terrifying scene from several hundred years ago emerged in his mind, and his pupils contracted. His face turned pale, and his legs shivered. He couldn’t seem to take another step, no matter how much the Corpse Wizard King threatened him.

“Sir, the Sound Demon lives on the lake ahead of us. I still have an ill old mother at home. Sir, please let me go. Sir, I’m begging you.” Boll shivered as he begged loudly for forgiveness. He recalled what had happened several hundred years ago, and his body trembled with fear. He would rather give up on the reward than take the risk of venturing there again.

“Stand up! A Moon Soul Stone is enough for you to live the rest of your life without having to peddle some trash in the Business Hall and scam people.” After Yang Ling found out the location of the Sound Demon, he didn’t need trouble the peddler Boll any longer. He took out a Moon Soul Stone, as well as a bag of Black Crystals, from his spatial ring, and stuffed them into Boll’s hands.

“Sir, thank you. Sir, thank you!” Boll was overjoyed. He didn’t expect that Yang Ling would be so generous. He didn’t just give him the promised Moon Soul Stone; he also gave him a bag of black crystals. Boll prostrated respectfully in front of Yang Ling, thanked him loudly, and then left quickly full of longing for the future.

Swoosh!

The group wasn’t burdened by Boll any longer, and they advanced quickly. As they got closer to the lake, which stretched for a thousand miles, the cold wind turned more terrifying, letting out a swooshing noise. What was strange was that the wind’s direction changed repeatedly. Sometimes, it would blow from the west or east, and at other times, it would blow from the north. Energy Ripples permeated the air, and they only got more intense.

“Lord, you should be careful. If I’m right, this is a terrific Ancient Magical Formation Spell.” The old Dragon Turtle, Kaleisa, had rich experience, and his expression was grave. He found the cold, erratic wind very dangerous.

Yang Ling issued orders in a deep voice and spread out his tremendous Divine Consciousness around them. He also waved his hand and summoned a group of Mutant Horned Bee Beasts. He ordered them to fly forward and explore the area. He also ordered the Corpse Wizard King and his companions to form the Demon God Battle Formation and prepare for defense. He made preparations for the worst situation possible. “The Demon God Battle Formation! No one is allowed to leave the perimeter of 20 feet around me.”

The Horned Bee Beasts in charge of exploring the path had gone through a mutation after they’d fused with the Blood Essence of Lightning Birds, Flying Dragons, and other Flying Magical Beasts through the Beast Soul Altar. Their size didn’t change, but their wings got stronger, and their speed was five times higher than before. Some of them had even become Level-Surpassing Magical Beasts. They weren’t useful against High-Level Divine Duty Experts, but they were more than enough to explore the road ahead.

Buzz!

Several hundred Horned Bee Beasts separated into 10 teams and quickly spread out to search the valley’s terrain. They immediately transmitted back many images. Yang Ling was about to order them to rush into the lake’s vicinity where the Sound Demon was located when a terrible cold wind blew suddenly from the depths of the valley, accompanied by an ear-piercing noise.

Large trees were uprooted, and the boulders atop the steep cliff were moved with a loud rumble. The ear-piercing swooshing noise turned into formless sound waves, attacking the crowd’s souls. Every wave was stronger than the last!

Sound Waves! The rare soul attacks, sound waves, reached them suddenly and pierced the group’s bodies like blades. They attacked their souls fiercely and tried to break the team’s soul defense.

Creak!

As a miserable cry echoed out, the few hundred Horned Bee Beasts with a Level-Surpassing Magical Beast’s power instantly lost their soul connection to Yang Ling and fell on the ground like rain. They laid there, motionless. Their souls were instantly extinguished by the terrific sound wave.

The Corpse Wizard King’s Death Ripples were also specialized in attacking enemies’ souls, but their might was much less than this terrific sound wave. The crowd was caught off-guard, and even the Corpse Wizard King, the old Dragon Turtle, Kaleisa, and the others turned pale, not to mention Yuna, Alice, and their companions. They suffered greatly, and they strained to resist the soul attack. Only Yang Ling and the Golden Roc could handle it with ease.

Was this a peerless powerhouse that practiced the Soul Law?

Yang Ling’s expression changed drastically, and he cast a Soul Wizard Spell without the least bit of hesitation. He wove hand signs with both hands and cast many Wizard Incantations. He set up Restriction Spells at the highest speed possible and blocked the sound wave with his whole power. As for the Golden Roc, it let out a cry and took its true form. Then, it soared into the sky and flapped its large wings rapidly. It gave rise to a gale that contended against the cold wind blowing out of the valley’s depths.

Rumble!

As a loud rumble echoed out, the gales collided and formed a terrific whirlwind. All the boulders and trees within several hundred meters were shattered and torn. At this critical juncture, the Golden Roc poured its whole power into the terrific gale. It still hadn’t recovered its peak power, but its offensive power was no small matter.

“Huh? Not bad! What a good Wandering Divine Beast!” A surprised cry rang out from the valley’s depths, and the cold wind stopped suddenly. It disappeared as quickly as it had arrived. Then, a melodious saxophone echoed out.

The sound was very rich, and it had a quick tempo. It was like a little butterfly dancing among flowers. Then, the tempo gradually slowed, and the beautiful music seeped into every person’s heart. It coiled around their hearts like a passionate lover.

There wasn’t any devastating gale nor a terrific soul attack. In an instant, it seemed like this melodious saxophone was all that was left in this world. It was a beautiful sound, with a light and quick tempo that entranced the people. They all got caught in an illusion. The Corpse Wizard King, Rodriguez, wore a smile, and it seemed like he’d gone back in time10,000 years and returned to his homeland. He saw his beautiful wife and his charming daughter. As for Sofia, she also smiled broadly. She saw herself running in the forest, hand in hand with Yang Ling, in the early morning, crossing great distances.

The melodious saxophone-like sound was like spring rain, seeping unknowingly into every person’s heart.

Hum!

Once the crowd was entranced, the melodious noise that resembled a saxophone trembled and slowed. The noise also turned mellow and low. Intense grief and pain welled up in everyone’s hearts.

The absent-minded Corpse Wizard King witnessed his wife’s merciless betrayal, and he saw the vile Count West. He also saw his daughter, Beth, laying on his chest, her body getting colder with every passing moment. As for the old Dragon Turtle, Kaleisa, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he felt like he went back in time by innumerable years and returned to the Giant Dragon Castle. He got to see the men of the City Amongst the Clouds and other great factions that had slaughtered his relatives mercilessly.

The Corpse Wizard King, Kaleisa, and the others got caught in an illusion and couldn’t free themselves. The Golden Roc possessed a powerful body, but soul attacks and soul defense weren’t its strong suit. It could handle the devastating gale, but it didn’t know how to handle the strange sound wave.

Sound attacks. Was this the real power of the Sound Demon?

Yang Ling was stunned. He sat cross-legged on the ground and read a Wizard Mantra silently. He wove Wizard Seals with his hands and tried to resist the soul attacks attached to the sound waves. He noticed that as the souls of the Corpse Wizard King and others fell victim to the attack, they were so pained that they shed tears. He understood that they were caught in an illusion. If even a Great Soul Wizard like himself was entranced by the illusion, then the consequences must be too horrible to imagine.

What should be done? How could he deal with this strange sound wave and quickly sober up his team?

Yang Ling’s face was pale, and he thought hard about how to deal with this. A large-scale Soul Restriction Spell could block this strange sound, and he could also cast Soul Wizard Spells to awaken the Corpse Wizard King and the others one by one. But he’d need a lot of time, and he didn’t have much. From the depths of the valley, the Sound Demon could take advantage of any chance and launch a deadly attack at any moment.

The best offense was the best defense. Since this was the case, they just had to see whose soul attacks would be the strongest.

After Yang Ling mulled this over a moment, he gnashed his teeth and made a decision. He waved his hand and took out the Great Wizard Altar as he held the Great Wizard Seal. The Wizard Core in his body breathed in and released a large amount of Wizard Power. As for the Soul Crystal in his brain, it released dense Crystal Mist that quickly enveloped the whole Great Wizard Altar.
