The First Layer of the Sage Realm
“Soul Emperor Territory?” Nie Yuu raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard the place.
“Yes. You must have known that every Layer of the Sage Realm was the ending place of all the souls of the Seven Galaxy. The Soul Devil was in charge of managing all of them. But, can everything be put into the reincarnation cycle? The answer is of course not. Among the souls that entered the First Layer of the Sage Realm, many of them survived and eventually reached a very strong level.”
“Natural Sage has been around for a long time, and you think, from that time, how many souls have not been captured? How strong are they? This was also one reason for the Devils being tasked with helping the Demon Soul.”
“In a certain area in each Layer of the Sage Realm, there will be a special place, they are always named Soul Emperor Territory by Devils and Soul Devils. In that place, many souls gathered.”
“Other than that, these souls are very unique because of the existence of the place. That said, souls that managed to reach the Soul Emperor Territory, they would cultivate bodies, and their bodies would be like Demon Souls. But these develop according to their original bodies. For example, if the soul of a human enters the place, then he will become half human and half soul even though the composition of his body is more inclined towards the soul.”
“But only there they can compress the body until it reaches that shape. If they came out, the form they solidified would slowly erode. Because of the large number of inhabitants of the place, wars often occurred and eventually a ruler was born. That is why the place is referred to as the Soul Emperor Territory, because the ruler in that place is the soul that escaped the hands of the Devil and the Demon Soul.” The Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign explained patiently.
“There is still such a place?” Nie Yuu was stunned to hear that. It would be very strange that in the Sage Realm there would be a special place that seemed to be made especially for the incoming souls not to enter the reincarnation cycle.
“Isn't it because the length of time passed, the souls there will get stronger? Why don't they fight back against the Devil and the Demon Soul?” This time Xu Han let out his opinion, he immediately asked out of astonishment as well.
“Bocah. I didn't expect that you'd be asking up to that level. It seems your brain has developed a little. But you forgot the keyword I mentioned, which is that the body they are condensed on will be eroded when it comes out of the Soul Emperor Territory!” The Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign said as he looked at Xu Han and still showed a look at someone idiot.
Xu Han's face darkened instantly. He desperately wanted to smash the Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign but he realized that he was no match for it.
“Wait, if it is like that, aren't they hostile towards Devils and Soul Devils?” Nie Yuu asked with a frown on her forehead.
“Yes, this is one of the reasons why I brought you there, son. You just need to use the human body, and we'll see what reactions will occur.” The Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign smirked evilly.
Nie Yuu's pupils narrowed when he heard what the Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign had said. He is not a moron like Xu Han and instantly know which way to talk, “Old devil, don't tell me that you want to use them to petrify taking key shards aside from increasing my strength?”
“As expected of you son. I feel relieved that your brain is not as dull as Xu Han because you became his Master.” The Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign nodded in satisfaction with Nie Yuu's cleverness.
As for Xu Han, his face grew darker and uglier. He did not understand why the Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign seemed to be so fond of oppressing him.
“If it is like that, we will go to Soul Emperor Territory! I want to see what kind of place it is.” Nie Yuu raised the corner of her lips as she felt that the Sage Realm was becoming more attractive.
“Yes. I'll tell you the way.” Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign entered into the Dark Demon Sword then continued, “Don't be careless. Wars often occurred near the Soul Emperor Territory. Try to avoid a war between demons and souls before you get in there.”
“Ya.” Nie Yuu gave a small nod then looked towards Xu Han, “Why do you put on such a face, let's go!”
Nie Yuu and Xu Han continued flying for quite a long time, not until a week later, the two halted in midair and gazed towards the distance.
In a place far enough away, there was a war between demons against souls that seemed almost to be the real form of living beings.
“It seems that what the old devil said was indeed real. It is strange that the place of the end of the soul has a region to condense the body for the souls.” Xu Han could hardly believe what he saw.
Nie Yuu simply rolled her eyes at Xu Han and shook her head. He would naturally believe what the Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign said because there was no point in the old demon lying, after all this time the old demon was a sword spirit. He would know that the Heavenly Slaughter Devil Sovereign if it lied to him.
“Hey shit! What are you two doing? Help them!” A very high voice sounded in Nie Yuu and Xu Han's ears.
Nie Yuu already knew that someone was approaching, but he did not care at all. As for Xu Han, he immediately turned his head and looked towards the source of the voice.
Because Xu Han was too focused on gazing towards the battlefield, he ended up not tracking down someone who was approaching. At a distance not far enough, one demon with a height of five meters stared at Xu Han and Nie Yuu with a cold gaze.
“Devil Tier God Exalt Early!” Inner Xu Han gulped his saliva because he knew that he was no match for such a powerful demon even though he used the newly awakened power, namely the Nie Clan's Demon Prince Mode. But because his Master was with him, he relaxed a little and felt no need to fight it out.
The five-meter-tall demon looked towards Xu Han who he thought was very weak then looked towards Nie Yuu who did not even look back. This made him very angry. War was going on and the two dregs were just watching, of course this made him very angry.
“It seems I should discipline you boy!” The demon instantly disappeared and appeared right behind Nie Yuu.
Xu Han instinctively turned his head back even though he was unable to keep up with the demon's speed. But he failed to react when the demon attacked Nie Yuu.
Nie Yuu had already seen everything with the laws of Fate. He simply twisted his body then swung his palm after coating it with a considerable amount of qi and laws.
Plaque!
Before the demon finished swinging its fists, a slap hit its face that made it swirl and then shot to a very far place.
It looked like Nie Yuu slapped a fly to get away.
“Really annoying.” Nie Yuu said without looking at the demon. He also looked back towards the war then glanced in a certain direction because that place was the direction the Soul Emperor Territory was located in.
However, before Nie Yuu flew towards the Soul Emperor Territory, a person's voice rang out in his mind which made him give a small smile.
“It's been a long time for you just to fuse those genes. I thought you would be like that forever.” Nie Yuu said with a small smile on her face. Because, the voice of someone he heard in his mind was the voice of a woman who had been meditating in his Inner World, Zi Ling.
