Spirit Guardian Summoning - Chapter 98 Soul Crystal
98.-Soul Crystal
Now that everything seemed to have ended well, Rainer decided to use his Devil Vision to explore the surroundings.
His eyes turned green as a strange energy circulated through them.
One of the demons’s racial techniques, the devil’s vision allowed him to see the spiritual energy flow and things that at first glance would be hidden.
“…!”
Floating around him there was a fine colorless thread, he tried to grab it but he just passed it through as if there was nothing present.
“What is this thread?” Rainer wondered before remembering that something punctured his neck during the fight.
After bending down Rainer was able to see that the thread was connected to his neck.
“It was an attack after all! If I follow the thread I will find the aggressor!” Rainer thought.
Suddenly,a strong feeling of weakness ran through Rainer’s body, causing him to fall to the ground.
“My body… it feels heavy…”
It was exhausting to move, he just felt the urge to sleep.
“Kekekeke, I’m almost done… “A sudden laugh reached Rainer’s ears removing all evidence of drowsiness from his body.
In his legs, a small transparent and invisible sphere to normal eyes sucked the thread constantly, he didn’t know what was snatching him but it had to be something important!
Inside the transparent dome, a bug had grabbed his clothes and was eagerly absorbing the thread.
“A soul attack!” Rainer finally recognized what was happening after identifying the attacking bug.
A Soul Leech Bug!
“Physical attacks do not work on it once it has begun its attack, only a soul attack can counteract another soul attack.” Rainer decided to return soon to the Sect, maybe there was time to save himself!
“It is useless, I have been sucking up your soul since the start of the fight, you will soon be nothing but an empty shell!”
The hoarse but familiar voice of the monstrous man indicated that the bug was none other than Kirios, the man who had been killed by the zombie!
“How are you still alive after being killed twice? Damn cockroach!”Rainer ignored Kirios and rose to head for the Sect as quickly as possible.
…
To save time, Rainer tried to use Void Step but it didn’t work!
“What the hell is going on?”
“Hahaha, you idiot, your soul is what controls the spiritual energy from your body, without it you won’t be able to run away with your spatial leaps!” Kirios’s voice resounded through Rainer’s ears like he wanted to mock him until the end.
Despair seemed to fill Rainer just before he had an idea.
“That’s it!”
Rainer remembered something he had always had with him, he used the little spiritual energy available to activate his storage ring and pulled out a small crystalline drop.
This crystalline drop looked like a pure and holy tear, a small film of light covered its exterior as if it was preventing the slightest corruption from reaching it.
“A crystallized soul!” Kirios’s mouth looked like it was going to start drooling after seeing such a discovery.
Soul is immutable for most people, only geniuses with special physiques are able to empower their souls before reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
Of course, nature is wise and there are few but powerful cultivation resources capable of empowering a cultivator’s soul after consuming them!
One of those is a crystallized soul! Think of it as a spiritual stone formed by a soul instead of the energy from heaven and earth.
These stones were a very limited resource, after all, who would be disposed to reduce their own soul for the sake of others?
“After I kill you, that crystallized soul will be mine!” Kirios shouted in emotion.
“You won’t get the chance, you filthy leech!” Rainer drew Scale of Doom and pierced the soul crystal with its tip.
Cracks began to appear through the crystal as it trembled, a powerful light emerged from the cracks, it was about to explode!
“No, you dare!” Kirios shouted in alarm, a soul pulse could kill him!
An immaterial blast happened at that moment, nothing was destroyed and a gentle breeze whipped the forest but all the animals in the area fled in terror.
At the pulse epicenter, Rainer spat blood, his soul was already weak after being absorbed and now this soul pulse threatened to destroy the last chink of his soul.
Ssss!
Scale of Doom was pleased at having two tasty prey the same night, the blade eagerly absorbed the soul power from the crystal and diminished the soul pulse effects.
