"Awake?" Su Hong asked the Mermaid before him, who was about to open her eyes.
Beside Su Hong were other souls. At the very front were the souls of the twelve Sea Soul Beasts, while the souls of other humans and soul beasts had gathered around them.
After Su Hong brought these souls in, he used the Spiritual Power of the Divine Origin Realm to strengthen their originally fragile souls.
In their current state, so long as they did not suffer a fatal attack, they could survive in this form for more than a century without issue.
After the Mermaid awoke and saw the scene before her, she was startled at first. Then, she quickly remembered what had happened and asked tremblingly, "Was it you who saved me just now? And... where is this?"
"That's right. I was the one who rescued you from the Evil Soul Masters' branch. As for this place, it is a Demiplane within my dantian," Su Hong said.
Upon hearing that Su Hong had saved her, the Mermaid hurriedly thanked him. "Thank you, my lord, for saving my life. Lina has no way to repay this kindness. If you ever need me, Lina will brave fire and water without hesitation."
"There's no need to brave fire and water. With my strength, I don't need you to do anything. Your Spiritual Power hasn't recovered yet, has it? Once you've recovered a little more, you can go back," Su Hong said.
"Ah?" Lina was stunned at first. Then she remembered that Su Hong had rescued her, and with his strength, he truly had no use for her.
Seeing that Lina understood, Su Hong transformed into a streak of golden light and vanished from the Demiplane. After seeing Su Hong leave, the other souls scattered in different directions.
