He was relentlessly beaten by these Lord of Souls, and if Leo hadn't appeared and helped relieve the pressure, he doesn't know how long he would have been beaten.
Now that's settled, there's only one left. The Interstellar Wanderer is determined to avenge the previous attack.
Leo quickly retreated, getting away from this level-five battlefield!
He is currently suffering from the aftereffects of his soul being torn apart, and his strength has declined significantly. He needs some time to recover.
He landed on the ground, found a big tree to lean against, and waited for Yaoyao to return.
He was unharmed when he was hit by the Lord of Souls's soul attack, as his soul was anchored in the Shadow World and was therefore immune to harm.
The soul tearing was Soul Splitting Technique he released on himself, actively Soul Splitting.
No one knows what he did, and no one will ever know.
What the Interstellar Wanderer saw was that Leo was deliberately luring away the Level-Five Lord of Souls. When he caught up, he saw the Lord of Souls strike Leo with a soul attack, damaging Leo's soul.
Even the Lord of Souls believed this; he was the one who struck Leo, causing Leo to be seriously injured. He was almost able to kill Leo, but unfortunately, the Interstellar Wanderer happened to arrive saved Leo's life.
Leo would never tell them how there were so many coincidences. He explained that he had calculated the distance based on his understanding of the Interstellar Wanderer Interstellar Wanderer and knew when they could rescue him, which is why he decided when he would be injured.
The Level 5 battle in the sky was violent and frenzied. Every moment of the battle was a life-or-death struggle. No one held back. The entire sky was churning and the sun and moon lost their light. Only the bright stars continued to send down beams of light.
With a slight slump, Yaoyao appeared on Leo's shoulder.
"Done, your soul fragment has been sent into the Soul Passage," Yaoyao said.
"Let's see if the Returning Breath World's World Will can discover it now," Leo said slowly, watching the battle unfold in the sky.
"You've learned some of the Black Skull's knowledge, completely concealing your soul fluctuations, making you no different from a dead soul; it won't detect it."
"Besides, with hundreds of world wars going on right now, who knows how many souls have entered the Returning Breath World? How powerful must their World Will will be to distinguish each and every soul?" Yaoyao comforted Leo Xi.
"You're right, the chances of being discovered are extremely small. We'll know that once he awakens his own will, we'll be able to contact him," Leo said.
"So what do we do now...?" Yaoyao asked Leo.
"Of course I need to go back and recuperate. I have witnesses who saw me injured by Level-Five Lord of Souls. I definitely won't recover without decades of rest."
Leo stood up and disappeared in a flash.
His serious injuries were his reason for resting, and no one could object to that.
The battle at the Soul Passage was too dangerous; having completed the mission, Leo had no intention of continuing.
Besides, he saved four World Lord and helped the Interstellar Wanderer draw away their enemies. No one can find fault with his achievements, so it's best to leave first.
They've been hiding on the mothership for decades, waiting to recover from their injuries before making any further moves!
If I could stay hidden for a hundred years and return to the Wizard World, that would be wonderful.
Leo, who had walked thousands of steps in the shadows, emerged from the shadows and landed on the first deck of the mothership, just in time to see the Boiling Blood Tyrant Body directing the battle.
" Atomic Control, you're injured?" Boiling Blood Tyrant Body looked at Leo, whose aura had greatly diminished and whose complexion was pale, with shock.
In his memory, he had never seen Leo get injured. No matter what kind of opponent Leo faced, or how many there were, Leo had never been injured.
The wizard who had remained unharmed even after being chased by Level-Five Lord of Souls for two years was unexpectedly found to be severely injured shortly after going out with the Purple-Gold Vine Stigmata Great Wizard.
Is the Soul Passage that dangerous?
"Yes, the fighting there is too dangerous; it's simply beyond our reach. It would take me decades to recover."
"You keep command, I'm going to recover from my injuries. Don't call me unless it's something important." Leo looked extremely frightened, as if he shouldn't have agreed to the Purple-Gold Vine Stigmata Great Wizard's request in the first place.
"I'm here, so you can rest and recover without worry."
Watching Leo's departing figure, the Boiling Blood Tyrant Body felt even more terrified. Even Level Four Stigmata Wizard of Leo's strength was severely injured upon his arrival.
He was lucky he didn't go; if he had, he would have basically died there.
Inside the mothership's cabin, Leo closed her eyes, her consciousness already immersed in a sea of thoughts.
The seawater of the ocean of consciousness, along with the golden light emanating from the power of the physical body, formed a double helix structure that continued to rotate in space.
The branches of the World Tree above the ocean of consciousness remained motionless, as if asleep.
But Leo knew that as long as he called out, the World Tree would wake up and would provide him with some help, as they had agreed on last time.
So far, however, there hasn't been a time when we needed the World Tree's help.
Looking towards the edge of the sea of consciousness, one can see a long ravine that has appeared in the sea of consciousness, just like when I was a first -Level One Lesser Wizard. This is a wound that can tear the sea of consciousness apart.
At the point of tearing, a thin spatial barrier prevents the waters of the ocean of consciousness from flowing into the ravine.
This is the effect of Leo's Soul Splitting Technique on himself, forcibly tearing a piece off from his sea of consciousness.
When Leo was first hit, he was still Level One Lesser Wizard and almost died. He was in a coma for several months. This time, however, the damage appeared to be more severe than it actually was.
Because after Yaoyao received the message that his torn soul had been thrown into the Soul Passage, she anchored that torn soul in the same location in the Shadow World.
It was on that statue that, in this way, the soul seemed to have been torn apart from Leo, yet it was still connected to Leo.
The injuries Leo displayed were caused by the pain of his soul being torn apart, not by the reduction of the soul's tearing.
His strength was not diminished in the slightest.
"Fortunately, everything is within the calculations, and no unexpected situations have arisen."
Leo had already calculated and simulated countless times, and had already determined a range of soul-tearing conditions. This tearing did not have any serious impact on his strength.
As consciousness returned, Leo took deep breaths to alleviate the pain. He knew he could recover instantly, but Li Xi couldn't.
The pain must be shown sufficiently for others to internalize the idea that Leo is seriously injured.
Because of his severe injuries, it seemed everyone had forgotten his existence, leaving him alone in the room to recover slowly.
Leo would at most use the crystal ball and the Fate Wizard Book to learn about the battlefield situation; as for the Soul Passage, Leo wasn't worried at all.
Whether they turn it off, on, or whatever, it doesn't really matter to him.
His strength is not yet at the level to command the direction of the war; he should take care of his own affairs first.
Three months later, Leo, who was recuperating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, his eyes bright and alert, as if some joyous event had occurred.
"Did it work?" Yaoyao asked excitedly, jumping onto Leo's chest as she looked at his open eyes.
Although they didn't ask a specific question, they both knew what Yaoyao wanted to ask.
That is, the fragment of soul that was torn apart and thrown into the Returning Breath World awakened its original will; in other words, the will of Leo within that soul awakened.
Leo was able to contact him!
Leo closed his eyes again, entered his sea of consciousness, and walked lightly, quickly reaching the sky above the torn ocean.
Consciousness returned to the body, but this time it didn't return to the physical body inside the mothership, but rather appeared in a very narrow body.
It's as if someone stuffed him into a small bottle, completely filling the space, yet still unable to contain his body.
Leo had a feeling that if he made even the slightest movement, his body would burst.
It was too weak, so weak that Leo dared not have any fluctuations in consciousness and could only reduce the fluctuations in his soul to minimize damage to his body.
Even so, the body continued to emit terrifying cracking sounds, so frightening that Leo immediately tried to curl himself into a small ball.
Leo wanted to save his body; he didn't want to face the crisis of death as soon as he regained consciousness.
Then all the things he did would have been wasted!
His gaze swept quickly across everything before him, and it was similar to the scene seen in the soul of Level-Five Lord of Souls. This was the Returning Breath World!
After his soul fragments passed through the Soul Passage, they safely passed the will test of the Returning Breath World and completed their rebirth.
This is no longer inside the mountain; we have successfully left our birthplace and entered the first area for training and growth.
This place teems with life, all kinds of life. Creatures that successfully survive from their birthplace need to undergo further transformation here!
He was a beetle the size of a fist, bleeding profusely. At the current rate of damage, his body would be shattered in less than a minute due to the ever-growing, awakening soul.
"Roar"
A ferocious beast, accompanied by a terrifying howl, pounced from afar and instantly appeared before Leo. It wasn't targeting Leo's beetle-like body; it was simply passing by.
His roar was a way for him to intimidate the enemies around him and protect himself.
But when Leo saw this beast radiating energy fluctuations, his eyes lit up. Although in terms of energy intensity, he was only at the apprentice level, he was still much stronger than this beetle.
"You're the one."
The moment the beast trampled over the beetle,
The beetle, which appeared to be dying to other wild animals, suddenly leaped up and jumped directly into one of their mouths.
Before the beast could even chew it, the beetle burrowed into his stomach through his throat.
The beast was clearly taken aback. Food that was directly fed into its stomach?
