The snake moved restlessly. The distance is no longer far with the gate made by Xika. He tried hard to escape, or at least stopped approaching the gate.

But the rope that bound her came from Xika's mind. And at this moment Xika did not waver in the slightest, so she could not escape. After all his soul energy had stayed a little so there was not much resistance he could put up.

The snake was getting closer and closer to Xika's gate. Meanwhile, his face was getting worse with each second.

Right at the edge of the gate, the snake stopped. This time her mind was very strong so the rope of Xika's mind could not take her there.

"Hm? Why did you stop? Let's advance!"

Then after saying that, Xika kicked the snake into the gate.

The double!

Whussh!

For a few seconds, Xika's gate lit up very brightly. Then after the light dimmed, the snake was nowhere to be seen.

When Xika still turned her head left and right looking for the snake - a very stupid thing because this was her own soul realm - various images appeared.

It seemed like those images were the memories of the old snake soul that Xika had absorbed earlier. But something was bothering Huo Bing.

"Wait a minute," he said, "If it's true this is the memory of that damn snake, isn't it too little?"

"What do you mean?" ask Xika who doesn't understand.

"The snake should have lived for several hundred years. Why is the memory visible only a little? I'll bet this isn't even a quarter of his life."

"Totally so."

Heiliao also started to notice it. What Huo Bing said made sense. The picture he showed Xika during their first meeting was much more than the current picture.

"Hmmm........."

Xika thought for a moment.

"Is it possible.......because what we absorbed was only a small part of his soul so the memory is also only a small part?"

Huo Bing and Heiliao were silent. They think for a moment.

"It seems that's the only reasonable explanation."

"Then, can we energize the formation to awaken its soul, then absorb it to retrieve its memory?"

"It seems that it can't. Perhaps this memory loss is also one of the side effects of the formation it uses. Most evil formations usually have evil consequences as well."

Xika nodded. Then he realized something.

"wait. In that case, didn't the technique Heiliao gave him also have side effects?"

"Totally so."

Huo Bing and Heiliao also just remembered that.

"What are the side effects? Is it possible to be single forever?" huo Bing asked while scaring Xika.

"Damn it! No kidding!"

Then Heiliao stared at one figure.

"Looks like that."

"What?"

"The effect beside him."

Xika and Huo Bing followed the direction of Heiliao's gaze. And they found a black fog that formed a faint figure.

"What's that?"

"Maybe the negative energy left behind from a soul that is not willing to die."

"Is that dangerous?"

"Maybe."

"Can he hurt me?"

"Maybe."

"With you two?"

""Of course not possible!"" answer both at the same time. Then the wolf and the bird looked at each other for a while before turning their eyes to the approaching black fog.

"Can that figure be defeated? Or destroyed?"

"There's nothing that can't be defeated" Huo Bing replied confidently followed by a nod in Heiliao's agreement.

"Including the two of you?"

"Of course not!" The two spoke in a louder tone but at the same time.

Xika scratched her head. It was quite strange to see these birds and wolves could agree on the same thing. They usually have the opposite view.

Then Xika imagined Bai Fengs sword. But this time with a smaller size so it looks like a knife.

He threw it into the fog.

The knife hit the fog. But the figure did not look hurt or in pain. The knife Xika threw just pierced through her body like that.

Xika looked at each other with Heiliao and Huo Bing. Then he took his card.

He threw one of his cards at the figure made of fog.

Whush!

The Xika card pierced through the figure as well, but this time it seemed to be in pain. When Xika was about to throw the next card, Huo Bing stopped him.

"wait. You tried your card and it proved successful. That thing can protect you. So I want to try my fire and ice too."

Huo Bing opened his mouth and then came out a frost that led to the black fog.

Some parts of the fog that were exposed to Huo Bing's coldness turned stiff then froze. After that it broke into pieces then evaporated.

Huo Bing nodded seeing his ice work. Now he wants to try the fire.

He opened his mouth again, but this time it was a burst of fire. The flames hit half of the fog and instantly evaporated on fire.

Huo Bing smiled in satisfaction seeing his attack succeed. He stood up with a proud expression.

Without him noticing, Heiliao also tried his attack. The wolf walked until it was close enough to the fog. Then he opened his mouth and absorbed the black fog until it was not there.

When Huo Bing turned his head and found Heiliao sucking on the black fog, her smile froze.

Finished sucking, Heiliao turned around and looked at Huo Bing with a look of disdain.

Seeing Huo Bing who was about to advance and attack Heiliao, Xika immediately stopped the two of them. He didn't care if Huo Bing and Heiliao fought each other in the outside world, but he couldn't let them fight in his own soul realm.

After trying hard to keep the two from fighting, he looked around.

"So this place is the realm of my soul?" tanyakanya.

Heiliao answered him with a nod.

"Once upon a time yes." said Xika commenting on her own soul realm.

Heiliao and Huo Bing looked at the child with strange gazes. This was his own soul realm, why would he comment on it?

"Ah, by the way, how do I get out of this place?"

Huo Bing and Heiliiao looked at Xika with increasingly strange looks.

"What?"

The two creatures did not answer. They just shut up, then disappeared. Leaving Xika alone in her soul realm.

"Basic shit!" objurgation.

Then he thought hard how to get out.

He tried to think of the outside world, the clear blue sky, the expanse of outer grass with flying butterflies, cities and villages full of life. Uh, it seems he's imagining it too far.

This time he tried to focus more. He imagined the room that had been his residence for a year. The room was filled with formations on its walls and there was a corpse of an old snake.

WHUSHES!

Xika felt herself as if sucked in. And without knowing how, he had already returned to his body in the outside world.

He looked around him. Then his body and check all his gear. Starting from Space Shifter, Lian Minjie's knife and knife he wrought himself, as well as his back protector. Everything exists. Complete and not lacking.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he took out Bai Feng's spatial ring. He stared at the sword artifact that Bai Feng previously had. The artifact is now his.

Xika was a bit confused about what he should do to the sword. He is not a sword user. Indeed Huo Bing and Heiliao had taught him various kinds of weapons and one of them was a sword, but he was still not a sword user. The sword is not his favorite weapon. If the situation is urgent, he can use a sword, but he will only use it in certain situations.

His favorite weapon is a stick. Wands are much longer than swords. The weight is balanced, it fits in his hand and it is not a weapon to kill. He did not intend to be a killer, which is why he decided to choose the stick as his main weapon, and the card of course.

After thinking for a while, Xika intended to present the sword to Xingli. A beautiful woman with a face like a goddess who has no expression. Xika often calls her a disabled girl because she has almost no expression. Of course without Xingli's knowledge.

He wondered where and what the girl was doing now.

"The wolf's charred, you see that face? It was the face of a foolish man who was thinking of a girl whose feelings he still did not know."

"Damn it!"

Xika sparred with Huo Bing for a while with Heiliao watching from the side and nodding like a fool.

Finished arguing-because Heiliao's stupid expression was bothering them both-Xika discussed regarding the formation.

"Is the formation useless now?"

"It looks so."

Then Xika immediately shot out quickly and held onto Heiliao's jaw.

"A-akha are you doing?" he said with his mouth half open.

"I need that lizard." replied Xika with a sharp look.

Heiliao sighed then let Xika pick up the lizard she almost ate.

Xika carried the lizard in front of the old snake's corpse. Then he threw it into the middle of the formation.

Pluck up!

The lizard immediately escaped from the three creatures that captured it.

Huo Bing, Xika and Heiliao looked at each other. They smiled as the formation no longer worked.

Then they walked to the middle of the room.

Xika laid down a round disc that was the core of the teleportation formation.

"You ready?"

"Come on!"

Huo Bing and his two clones fired their attacks towards the dish.

The disk shone, then the nearby patterns shone and began to spread to other patterns.

Immediately, in a few moments, all the formations in the room lit up.

WHUSHES!
