Things Got Out of Hand

Of the nine kinds of Soul Power in heaven and earth, Jerry had already condensed seven. Was he afraid of condensing two more? He first condensed a Purple Lightning Attribute Soul Power Seed, reaching level one without any surprises. Last came this white one of unknown attribute! After absorbing a great deal of White Soul Power, he discovered that it could not be condensed into a Soul Power Seed. Jerry finally realized that this White Soul Power was Attribute-less—it could merge with any attribute!

As he absorbed the White Soul Power, a sudden change occurred inside his Martial Soul, completely beyond Jerry's control. He tried to stop it, but he could not. This had gotten out of hand!

Once the White Soul Power reached a certain amount, it began frantically absorbing the Soul Power around it. The white glowing mass took on a spherical shape and grew larger and larger! Jerry suddenly could not move. He had originally placed this white Soul Power in the center, with the light and darkness attribute Soul Power Seeds nearby. Those two Soul Power Seeds were soon enveloped by the White Light Ball, causing it to absorb Soul Power even faster. Even the light and darkness attribute Soul Power joined in! The white sphere grew larger and larger, quickly overtaking the five elemental seeds. Then the five elemental attribute Soul Power joined in as well. Jerry felt his Martial Soul trembling violently, as if it could no longer endure. He had placed the Lightning Attribute Soul Power Seed at the very top, far away at first, but in the end, it too could not escape being swallowed!

With the Lightning Attribute joining in, the Light Ball seemed to stabilize considerably! Now all the attributes of heaven and earth had joined in, absorbing at a rapid pace. Soon, it seemed as though the inside of the Martial Soul could no longer contain it. The Martial Soul shook violently! With a bang, the Martial Soul exploded! The Light Ball was directly exposed to the air!

Jerry's mind exploded along with it. His Martial Soul had exploded! Would he still be able to cultivate in the future? Had he been crippled just like that?

The fragments from the exploded Martial Soul were not spared either, directly wrapped into the Light Ball. Then it continued. Even the Soul Rings outside the Martial Soul could not escape, getting enveloped one after another!

Jerry was now on the verge of tears. He could not move at all and could only watch helplessly, unable to stop it. He even worried that once this Yellow Ball absorbed enough, it would explode. With that much Soul Power, the entire Core Region would probably be leveled to the ground!

All Jerry could do now was hope—hope that it would stop quickly. But reality was completely contrary to his hopes. It continued rapidly absorbing all kinds of Soul Power from heaven and earth at a speed that filled Jerry with despair!

The violent disturbance of Soul Power between heaven and earth quickly caused panic among the Soul Beasts. The Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beasts could vaguely sense that all Soul Power was flowing toward the Core Region, and they hurried there one after another! Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu, who had been cultivating, also woke from their cultivation. They were the first to discover Jerry sitting motionless, with a massive Light Ball before him rapidly absorbing the Soul Power of heaven and earth. Being close by, they sensed it even more clearly and could all feel the danger of the Light Ball!

"What happened to Jerry?" Xiao Wu asked anxiously!

But Jerry could only stare wide-eyed at Xiao Wu, unable to say a word!

As the Light Ball absorbed more and more Soul Power, it grew larger and larger. Soon, it touched the ground. Anything on the ground that came into contact with the Light Ball was directly sucked inside. The Light Ball was now nearly a meter in diameter and very close to Jerry. He could even feel the powerful suction. Thinking that he would soon be swallowed as well, Jerry felt deep regret. Since coming to this world, he had spent all his time cultivating. He had not even properly seen this world yet. Was it going to end like this?

Xiao Wu could tell that Jerry was in an abnormal state. He had not responded to her at all, so something must have happened to him. Watching the Light Ball draw closer and closer to Jerry, Xiao Wu gathered her courage and walked toward him. Although the Light Ball filled her with fear from the bottom of her heart, for Jerry's sake, she would risk it!

Xiao Wu quickly reached Jerry's side. "Jerry, don't be afraid! I'll take you away!" As she spoke, Xiao Wu went to embrace Jerry!

At that moment, the Light Ball seemed to sense something and suddenly increased its suction! Xiao Wu could barely stay on her feet!

"Xiao Wu, get out here! Get out now, it's dangerous!" Da Ming shouted, while Er Ming began to roar as well!

The Light Ball increased its suction again. This time, Xiao Wu could no longer stand steadily. Holding Jerry, she said, "Brother Jerry, it looks like we can't escape this time. Actually, Brother Jerry, I've always liked you. After Mom left, you were the one who treated me best. You taught me things, helped me cultivate, and came to live in the forest with me to protect me. I don't want to be your little sister anymore. I want to be your wife! It's a pity I said it too late. We're going to die soon. I hope I can still meet you in the next life, Brother Jerry."

Listening to Xiao Wu's words, Jerry thought to himself, Xiao Wu, you fool. Why did you come over? You fool, you're such a fool! Xiao Wu, I like you too. I liked you in my previous life too. But Jerry could not speak now. He was so anxious that tears flowed from his eyes!

Seeing Jerry's tears, Xiao Wu said, "Brother Jerry, I don't know what happened to you, but it looks like you can't move. Don't be anxious. I came willingly. I'm very happy to be able to die together with you, Brother." Then Xiao Wu kissed Jerry on the lips! Jerry's first kiss across both his lives was wonderful, yet also a little sad!

The Light Ball soon swallowed Jerry and Xiao Wu! Once they were swallowed, Jerry suddenly regained the ability to move. He saw the Core Region of the Light Ball. At its center was an attribute-less sphere, while spheres of every other attribute had separately condensed around it. The five elemental attribute spheres moved rapidly along a flat circular ring. Darkness and light moved along a vertical circular ring, while the Lightning Attribute had a ring of its own, also vertical. This moving ring was perpendicular to the ring of darkness and light. The centers of all three rings were that attribute-less sphere! These three rings were also formed from Attribute-less Soul Power. At a glance, they looked somewhat like a Gyroscope!

The various attributes rapidly absorbed Soul Power before finally channeling it into the central sphere! The sphere refused no one, absorbing every kind of attribute!

Then he saw Xiao Wu beside him. She seemed to be in great pain.

"Xiao Wu, how are you?"

"Brother Jerry, it feels like my entire body is being torn apart! It hurts so much!"

"No!" Jerry looked at the core sphere and roared, "Stop right now, stop! You are not allowed to hurt Xiao Wu!"

The sphere seemed to sense Jerry's will and stopped pulling at Xiao Wu's body. But it still seemed to desperately need energy. Suddenly, a red Soul Ring flew out from Xiao Wu's body. The Soul Ring flew toward the core and was quickly broken down and absorbed! At that moment, the central sphere and the surrounding spheres seemed to suddenly double in size!

"Xiao Wu, how are you?"

"Brother Jerry, after it absorbed my Soul Ring, it doesn't seem to be hurting me anymore!"

"As long as it's not hurting you, that's good. That's good!"

Suddenly, the space inside the sphere shook. Jerry looked around and immediately saw Da Ming outside attacking the Light Ball. But when the energy attacks struck the sphere, it merely shook before directly absorbing them. At this moment, all the Soul Beasts began attacking, but every attack vanished like a stone sinking into the sea, with no effect at all. In the end, they were all absorbed by the Light Ball!

After absorbing so much energy, the Light Ball finally began to stop and slowly shrink! In the end, Xiao Wu and Jerry were both expelled. It finally became something like a Crystal Ball. Everything Jerry had previously seen in the core was wrapped inside this Crystal Ball. The Crystal Ball eventually shrank to the size of a ping-pong ball, then flew into Jerry's forehead and vanished!

Jerry looked around. Apart from the huge pit that had been swallowed earlier, nothing else had changed much! Da Ming hurriedly asked, "Jerry, Xiao Wu, are you two all right? What was that Light Ball just now?"
