Chapter 183: The Familiar Soul Pearl

In the Life and Death Netherworld Illusion Realm, inside the Netherworld Palace.

“To establish oneself and command one’s destiny, Heaven and Earth are created. The Universe is tamed, and a new order is established.”

“Born with a destiny, dying with a Dao. Life and Death are impermanent, but the Netherworld Palace is eternal.”

The Netherworld Palace Master murmured to himself.

By his side, Mu Qingyan, known as an extraordinary woman of the Ten Thousand Realms, was still dressed in a simple, icy white gown, cold like a goddess of an icy mountain. Her body no longer enveloped in that mysteriously profound aura, yet she was even more captivating than any supreme demoness.

Even the resolve of the Netherworld Palace Master was constantly being influenced by her.

Therefore, while speaking, the Netherworld Palace Master did not look at his daughter, Mu Qingyan.

“Father King, are these words because you sensed the descent of a bloodline’s Life Chart?”

The woman in white asked, her voice calm and indifferent but enchantingly beautiful that fascinated the mind. Even without listening to her words, just hearing her voice was enough to bewitch someone.

The Netherworld Palace Master sighed internally as his massive body, like a black tower, paced back and forth within the Netherworld Palace. After a moment, he sighed and said, “Before the Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys visited the Nirvana Ancestor Star, they discovered the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm in that area, as you know.”

“Because of this event, I had initially set my sights on the Yuan Ci Secret Realm, but I did not expect the Yuan Ci Secret Realm to be of a lower level. Thus, the likelihood of the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm being absorbed, devoured, and refined was minuscule.”

“As such, the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm was naturally abandoned.”

“However, before this, there is something I must tell you, Father King, and you have already vaguely sensed it—the arrival of a generation possessing the Emperor Sword Bloodline.”

“Father King, did you perhaps intervene, interfere in some way?”

The Netherworld Goddess displayed a contemplative expression, then her delicate body trembled slightly, her voice losing some of its calm as she asked.

“It wasn’t exactly interference. Initially, the Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys communicated from the Life and Death Netherworld Illusion Realm that there was a cycle of life and death near the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm, with opportunities from heaven and earth. That severely injured woman possessed immortal spirit, capable of endless regeneration, her body harboring embryonic will…”

“At that time, what I thought was to use this immortal spirit to initiate a rebirth for a second-generation powerhouse. Thus, combining an immortal spirit with the second generation’s life would create an unparalleled genius.”

“Therefore, I had the Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys use the ancient Blood Concealing Technique to suppress and Seal her, performing the Three Corpses Return to Life, exterminating her original heart. Since you had mentioned similar matters before, I placed great importance on this and controlled such a life through its bloodline.”

The Netherworld Palace Master explained.

Initially, when the Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys communicated the message, they mentioned that there was a floating corpse in the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm. However, because of obsession, the corpse had not completely died and even harbored a trace of immortal aura, which was why the Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys took notice.

The Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys understood some information and knew that once the life force within this person’s bloodline was passed down, it would create an unparalleled figure. Therefore, they boldly contacted the Sovereign of the Netherworld Palace and relayed this information.

For such a figure, the Netherworld Palace naturally preferred to take control in advance, hence they planted a drop of Sealing Blood to suppress her, so she could assist the Netherworld Palace at a critical moment.

Now, this life form should have awakened and would naturally feel enmity towards the enemies of the Netherworld Palace due to instinct. At the same time, because of the differences in Life Charts, she would be seen through by the higher-ups of the Netherworld Palace and could be governed by them.

This was an unintended action, but what the Netherworld Palace Master had not anticipated was that now, through the Seal left by the Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys, he was sensing the bloodline of the Emperor Qi Sword Body, which was definitely an unexpected joy.

Initially, he had sent out the Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys on a task, and he had already harbored a similar thought, though he hadn’t expected such a situation to truly arise. After all, such circumstances were fortuitous and not to be sought, even as the Netherworld Palace Master, he couldn’t guarantee accomplishing this.

However, the outcome had immensely pleased the Netherworld Palace Master. In the future, with their growth capabilities, they would become another extraordinary figure in the Netherworld Illusion Realm, a marvel of the generation.

“So it is.”

The Netherworld Goddess nodded slightly, her eyes becoming even clearer and brighter, but the Netherworld Palace Master couldn’t fathom what she was contemplating.

“Qingyan, do you… have any requests?”

The Netherworld Palace Master glanced at his daughter Mu Qingyan, and although it wasn’t the first time he had seen his daughter’s appearance, each time he looked, he felt an overwhelming sense of astonishment.

As the Netherworld Palace Master, he had seen countless women, including many exceptional and enchanting women; however, he had never seen anyone with the appearance of Mu Qingyan.

Being called an “Extraordinary Woman of Ten Thousand Realms,” Mu Qingyan’s appearance was indeed a shock across the realms.

As the father of Mu Qingyan, being able to see his daughter’s true face, he sometimes felt very honored, because in front of others, Mu Qingyan always veiled her appearance under a mysterious aura.

It was precisely because of her extreme beauty that she didn’t want this beauty to cause unnecessary trouble or even be seen by people she didn’t care about.

The Netherworld Palace Master understood this well; thus, seeing his daughter now conversing with him without veiling her face filled him with an inexplicable sense of excitement.

“Father King, if possible, let this sealing technique remain with Qingyan, and after this girl grows up, let her join under Qingyan’s command.”

Mu Qingyan spoke.

“My daughter, if you wish it, then of course it’s no problem, I’ll give it to you right now.”

The Netherworld Palace Master happily said.

Saying so, he immediately took out the Soul Pearl that the Netherworld Eight Soul Envoys had transmitted back after sending their message.

This was an extremely dark Soul Pearl, yet within the darkness, wisps of blood fog halos occasionally shone inside the pearl.

These blood fog halos occasionally showed mysterious array patterns and sometimes displayed various irregular rune totems, quite eerie.

The Netherworld Goddess extended her delicate hand to receive the Soul Pearl, her gaze fixed on the inside of the pearl. It seemed she could see through the pearl, observing a small baby girl and a series of life scenes around her.

She gazed for a long while without speaking. The Netherworld Palace Master, somewhat surprised, looked at the Netherworld Goddess. He was curious, as his daughter Mu Qingyan rarely showed such interest in something.

However, as long as his daughter liked it, it was good. It was rare for her to be interested in something. Although the baby girl would undoubtedly grow up to be a remarkable person and become a pillar-like talent in the Netherworld Life and Death Illusion Realm, compared to his daughter, even if the baby was very valuable, the Netherworld Palace Master would not hesitate to let her have it.

The Netherworld Palace Master waited a moment longer, seeing that the Netherworld Goddess had no intention of speaking, he spoke again, “Qingyan, regarding the matter of Holy Daughter Jiang Yuning’s Life Soul, we still need to wait a bit longer as the captured maid, Ping’er, cannot yet detach from the Life Soul. It seems the Holy Daughter has taken some protective measures for this Life Soul, so we need the Soul Killing Chains to exert more force.”

“I’m not in a hurry about this matter, just let me know when you get the Life Soul from her. Father King, I’ll be leaving now.”

The Netherworld Goddess wasn’t focusing on the Life Soul; her gaze never left the Soul Pearl in her hand. While speaking, she didn’t pay attention to whether the Netherworld Palace Master had more to say and directly left, floating through the air.

The Netherworld Palace Master didn’t mind; he just watched, somewhat perplexed, the blood-colored Soul Pearl, feeling as if something was amiss.

It was as if the scene of the Netherworld Goddess taking the Soul Pearl and leaving his side seemed familiar. Yet, he couldn’t remember exactly where he had experienced such a scene before.
