In the pit filled with corpses, Jiang Ping An huddled up in a ball, clutching his head with both hands, his face full of pain.
A large amount of cold sweat continued to seep out from his forehead, instantly spreading all over his body, soaking his clothes.
At this moment, he finally knew how these people died.
It's a soul invasion!
Deep in his consciousness, an extremely strange soul appeared in Sea of Consciousness.
The shape of this soul goes against common sense and is made up of the souls of various creatures.
The main body is a creature similar to an octopus. Its tentacles are densely covered with ferocious and twisted human faces. Those faces are like evil ghosts appearing in the world, and their mouths are constantly emitting sharp and harsh sound waves, which penetrate directly into Jiang Ping An's soul, making his soul tremble.
Immediately afterwards, this weird soul suddenly jumped on his Divine Soul Tree and began to eat crazily, like a long-hungry evil beast, greedily eating away at his soul.
Fortunately, the soul of Jiang Ping An is extremely huge and was born from the extremely hard World Tree Seed. If it had been anyone else, it would have been eaten clean in an instant!
Even so, no matter how special his Mental Power is, he is still powerless to resist the devouring of this God-level Soul.
In only ten breaths at most, his soul will be eaten away.
When life and death were at stake, Jiang Ping An was so anxious that he quickly activated Time Power, trying to reverse time and drive this terrifying thing away from his body.
However, just by allowing this strange thing to be separated from Divine Soul Tree by a small distance, the surging immortal power in his body was instantly drained away like a flood that broke a bank.
This strange soul is a high-level god-level existence, and the immortal power in his body is not enough to support him to change the trajectory of this god-level thing.
"What should I do? What should I do?"
The shadow of death was like a mountain, weighing heavily on Jiang Ping An's heart, making his face so gloomy that it could drip with water.
Although he still has some trump cards, those methods are aimed at tangible things and are completely useless against this invisible soul.
Perhaps, the reason why God-level Expert, who came in before, died here was because of this strange creature.
"What is this thing and why is it so scary?"
"Am I going to die here today? No, I haven't taken revenge yet, I'm not willing to accept it!"
Jiang Ping An was unwilling to give up, and the anger in his heart was burning. He gritted his teeth, urged Divine Soul Tree's branches, and plunged into the soul of the weird octopus, trying to swallow the opponent's soul.
Thanks to the special function of World Tree Seed, his soul does have the ability to absorb other souls.
But the problem is that the devouring speeds of both sides are not at the same level.
The swallowing of Jiang Ping An is like a mosquito sucking blood, slow and difficult; while the swallowing of the weird octopus soul is like a lion eating meat, fast and greedy.
I saw the weird octopus soul hugging Jiang Ping An's Divine Soul Tree tightly, gnawing big mouthfuls of food, with a look of intoxication on his face, as if he was enjoying the most delicious delicacies in the world.
It has no autonomous consciousness, all this is purely instinctive.
"Boom~"
There was a loud noise, like the earth was shattering. Divine Soul Tree couldn't hold it on and collapsed suddenly. Blood slowly seeped out of Jiang Ping An's seven orifices. The whole person looked miserable.
"Are you really going to die..."
Jiang Ping An is filled with despair.
He has no means to fight against this thing.
"Haha~haha~"
At this moment of despair, a burst of harsh laughter suddenly sounded, awakening him from the edge of despair.
Jiang Ping An focused his attention and looked in the direction of the laughter. It was coming from a human hair on the octopus tentacles.
This human head is currently eating a [Soul Sphere] infected by [Paradise Divine Seal].
[Paradise Divine Seal] comes from a sunken ship discovered by the Sea Spirit Hall during the last space jump.
This sunken ship comes from an organization called [Paradise Divine Sect].
Back then, the organization [Paradise Divine Sect] relied on a strange power that could make people fall into crazy happiness, and quickly set off a storm in the God Realm, and its influence shook the foundation of Four Great Powers's rule.
In the end, Four Great Main Gods personally took action, causing one-fifth of the God Realm's creatures to be slaughtered, and this religious cult was completely destroyed.
Among the sunken ships discovered by the Sea Spirit Hall, there was a piece of [Paradise Saint Tablet] branded [Paradise Divine Seal].
He entered it and was beaten into [Paradise Divine Seal] by Paradise Saint Tablet, and was almost controlled by Paradise Divine Seal.
In the end, the crisis was narrowly resolved by devouring the souls of other pirates and transferring Paradise Divine Seal into these souls.
Because Paradise Divine Seal is too terrifying and belongs to the god-level rune, he has always been wary and dare not touch it easily.
Just hang those pirates Soul Sphere infected with [Paradise Divine Seal] on Divine Soul Tree.
Now, the human head on the octopus tentacles gnawed on a [Soul Sphere], as if it had been enchanted, it laughed like crazy and stopped eating Soul Tree.
Jiang Ping An noticed this scene keenly, and a glimmer of hope instantly ignited in his heart that was already as gray as ashes.
He endured the severe pain in his soul and immediately threw the other Soul Sphere infected with [Paradise Divine Seal] in front of the heads, inducing them to eat them.
This strange soul has no independent consciousness and only knows how to eat the soul crazily. When Soul Sphere fell in front of its eyes, it devoured it without hesitation.
Soon, all the heads on the octopus tentacles stopped attacking Soul Tree, and instead immersed themselves in laughter, looking extremely happy.
The most bizarre thing about Paradise Divine Seal is that it can make the soul feel endless happiness. Even if the father passes away or the wife dies, the soul affected by Paradise Divine Seal will only be immersed in happiness and unable to extricate itself.
When these two strange beings met, it was obvious that Paradise Divine Seal was superior, successfully making the octopus soul completely forget about swallowing Soul Tree.
Jiang Ping An saw this perfect opportunity and immediately rooted Divine Soul Tree's tree roots deeply into the octopus's soul, frantically absorbing its soul power.
His soul has lost two-thirds, and now he must rely on devouring the opponent to make up for the lost soul, otherwise his soul will be difficult to repair.
Time passed slowly, and several hours passed. Jiang Ping An finally reconnected the broken Divine Soul Tree.
But he didn't stop there, and continued to absorb it crazily, until he increased the power of Soul Force to the limit of the Golden Immortal Realm, and then he stopped with fear.
He knew in his heart that if he absorbed too much, he would probably lose control.
As he continued to absorb the power of this strange soul, a large number of messy and majestic memories poured into his consciousness like a surging tide.
If too many memories, especially memories of strong men, enter his mind, it is very likely that he will not be able to tell who he is, and will eventually fall into the terrible state of schizophrenia.
By carefully analyzing these memories, Jiang Ping An finally figured out the origin of this strange soul.
They were all living creatures when they were alive, but because they offended Three-Colored Fairy, Three-Colored Fairy used [Soul Devouring Gourd] to absorb their souls.
[Soul-Eating Gourd] has the ability to refine the souls of other living beings into pure soul power, which is then absorbed by the user.
Before Three-Colored Fairy encountered an accident, there was still a part of the soul Future that had time to be refined, so it remained in [Soul Devouring Gourd] and gradually merged together.
In the last battle of Three-Colored Fairy, [Soul Devouring Gourd] was unfortunately damaged and its soul, which had not been fully refined, took the opportunity to escape.
It was this soul body that almost destroyed Jiang Ping An.
Due to the isolation of souls from the surrounding Green Silver Mine, this special soul could not leave until the miners dug here, resulting in the tragic death of the miners.
Suddenly, Jiang Ping An opened his eyes suddenly.
Among these chaotic memories, he captured a crucial message.
"The artifact [Soul Devouring Gourd] really exists, that woman didn't lie!"
