Black Soluo, opened his eyes, a deep and unconcealed sorrow and pain welling up within them. However, this sorrow and pain vanished in an instant, replaced by heightened vigilance.
Before him appeared another Lord of Souls, also at Level Four!
Unlike his Lord of Souls, this Lord of Souls did not have haphazardly pieced-together limbs; like Black Soluo, he was a complete living being!
"I am Yesula, the guide of the newly ascended Lord of Souls." This Lord of Souls, who resembled a giant insect, couldn't hide the shock in his pupils as he looked at the enormous beetle before him.
He is the chosen guide of the Lord of Souls by the World Will, and one-tenth of the newly appointed Lord of Souls in the world will be guided through him.
From the first Lord of Souls he guided to the present, there have been a total of 385 Level-Four Lord of Souls.
However, among all these newly appointed Lord of Souls Lord of Souls, none of them have ever put so much pressure on themselves.
It is no exaggeration to say that standing before this newly crowned Lord of Souls, he felt a sense of impending death.
This newly ascended Lord of Souls body showed no signs of disassembly, seemed to be a seasoned Lord of Souls had been elevated for over a thousand years, while I, standing before him, looked more like a newly ascended one!
"Hello, Guide Yesula, I am Black Soluo." Black Soluo's low voice stirred up an energy storm in the air.
The newly promoted Lord of Souls is not yet used to his sudden increase in power, and every move he makes can cause all sorts of strange phenomena.
This scene made the guide Yesula's eyes twitch. He was now certain that the newly appointed Lord of Souls, Black Soluo, could easily kill him.
The topic of guides was introduced in the knowledge just infused; they are actually similar to the Guardian Wizard in the Wizard World.
However, these guides do not have the same authority as the Guardian Wizard; they are only responsible for guiding newly Lord of Souls and are not responsible for anything else.
There weren't many of these positions before, only two or three, but since the Returning Breath World launched its mass production plan, the number of guides has gradually increased.
" Black Soluo, the great Returning Breath World Will has infused your soul with all the important information. Now, come with me to the Luosha World to receive the Gift of the Returning Breath World," Yesula said.
"Okay, thank you."
Black Soluo followed behind Yesula, and after Yesula tore open space, he was directly teleported to the Luosha World.
The so-called gift is actually to give him some creatures from other worlds that have not yet been controlled, so that he can learn how to control puppets here. After initially acquiring military strength, he can then go and conquer other worlds.
Similar to the requirements of the Wizard World, once one advances to the Lord of Souls, they are forbidden from descending to the native land of the Returning Breath World.
They can only survive in the world outside the Returning Breath World!
Outside the Returning Breath World, instead of the demiplane of the Wizard World, there exist many habitable worlds.
Before the mass production plan begins, newly appointed Lord of Souls like Black Soluo will share a world with the other three Lord of Souls, with enough space between them so that none of them can affect the others.
Once someone gains control of another world, they can leave this place. This place is essentially a temporary residence arranged for them by the Returning Breath World after their advancement.
However, with the launch of the mass production plan, there are many new Lord of Souls. Originally, there were only four Lord of Souls in a world, but now there are at least ten Lord of Souls in a world. There aren't enough worlds to accommodate all these Lord of Souls.
Furthermore, the puppets bestowed upon the newly Lord of Souls have dropped from tens of millions at the beginning to millions now, and their average strength is less than one-third of what it used to be.
The war between the two worlds has severely weakened the power of the Returning Breath World.
"You stay here and learn to control the puppets, and master the knowledge of infusion as soon as possible. The evil Wizard World still needs us to conquer it."
Yesula, as expected of a seasoned guide, skillfully placed Black Soluo into a small world that already had twelve Level-Four Lord of Souls.
Perhaps because Black Soluo's advancement differed from other Level-Four Lord of Souls, the puppets given to Black Soluo for practice in controlling were of decent quality, with at least a few reaching Level 3.
Thank you.
Black Soluo politely saw Yesula off. When he first stepped into this Luosha World, he had already sensed that the Lord of Souls here were all newly promoted, and their strength was incomparable to those Level-Four Lord of Souls he had encountered on the battlefield.
Even without his main body taking action, Black Soluo's clones could easily crush several of them, and with just a slight cost, he could kill everyone here!
In such a world, Black Soluo's aura was released without any concealment. When those Lord of Souls investigated Black Soluo's strength, they all felt as if they had touched a red-hot iron and shrank back in terror.
Is this the strength of Lord of Souls?
You must be kidding!
Black Soluo ignored the frightened Lord of Souls. These Lord of Souls were of little use on the battlefield, except as cannon fodder or to eliminate slaves. Black Soluo couldn't think of any other role they could play.
These rapidly ascending Lord of Souls are no different from poultry raised on feed in farms.
Looking at the millions of puppets trembling before him, waiting to be controlled, Black Soluo skillfully extracted the essence of their souls and integrated it into his own.
He then separated a portion of his own primordial power from his soul and injected it into the bodies of these puppets, thus completing his control over them.
The exchange of primal power allowed Black Soluo to obtain 30% of the primal power he initially extracted from the million golems.
The primal power of the soul is the resource for the Lord of Souls to increase his strength, just like the wizards' understanding of the Power of Laws.
Having just advanced to level four, Black Soluo could clearly feel the increase in his strength after absorbing 30% of the power of a million-strong army.
"This method of advancement is really fast."
Feeling a slight increase in power within his body, Black Soluo said with a smile.
The thrill of increased power can instantly become addictive for Lord of Souls, who will use any means necessary to conquer and control other worlds.
However, this level of addiction is still completely within the control of Black Soluo, and it will not cause him to lose control of himself.
This ability to extract the primal power of other beings and to disperse the primal power within one's own soul is the knowledge of the Returning Breath World Infusion.
Just like when consciousness was first born, a large amount of knowledge was directly infused into the body, allowing the Lord of Souls to easily master a large number of abilities.
Besides controlling puppets, there are also Soul Modification, Soul Absorption, Soul Concealment, cosmic cognition, searching for other worlds... and so on.
All of this knowledge was imparted through the empowerment of the Returning Breath World!
What appears to be a simple and rapid indoctrination actually contains knowledge that Leo, the original creator, spent hundreds of years learning in the Wizard World, yet still couldn't fully grasp!
Much of this knowledge is beyond the knowledge of the original being, and some of it is not even found in the wizarding civilization!
Of course, much of the knowledge Leo possessed was not included in the knowledge infusion of the Returning Breath World.
In the Shadow Space, Leo, who had reviewed the knowledge of irrigation systems countless times, had to admit that the knowledge he wanted was not there.
Looking at the Ice palace beside him, and Alice lying quietly inside, he was surprised to find that the knowledge of the Returning Breath World Infusion did not include the restoration of the soul after death.
"How so,"
Why did this happen?
Leo entered the Ice Palace and sat quietly beside Alice's ice coffin. He rarely came here, not because he had forgotten Alice, but because each visit brought him endless sorrow.
I originally thought that after this clone's advancement, I would gain knowledge about soul revival, but unexpectedly... I didn't.
"Could it be that Black Soluo's level isn't high enough to access the knowledge of soul resurrection? This kind of knowledge must be top-level. After all, even when you sought guidance from the Supreme Lord, you still couldn't get it," Yaoyao comforted Leo, standing on his shoulder.
When Leo advanced to the third level, he killed the fourth-level Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard. The Tower of Elements Supreme Lord sent down an avatar to grant Leo a wish.
Leo wanted to resurrect Alice, but the Tower of Elements Supreme Lord told him that resurrecting the dead violated the rules of the universe and that they could not do it.
"You're right. The study of souls in the Returning Breath World surpasses that of wizards. They must have methods to resurrect souls. If this knowledge isn't accessible to Level-Four Lord of Souls, then it must be at a higher level."
Leo looked at Alice in the ice coffin, as if she were asleep, waiting for Leo to gently wake her up.
"My love, wait for me. I will save you, at any cost."
As he strode away from the Ice palace, the voice of his clone, Black Soluo, echoed in his sea of consciousness, "I have applied for an expedition to the Little Red Snake World."
Leo reviewed the memories of his clone, Black Soluo. While he was immersed in carefully studying the knowledge of the Returning Breath World's infusion, Black Soluo completed the control of a million-strong puppet army and even casually made up an excuse to apply for an expedition to the Little Red Snake World.
I originally thought the Returning Breath World would ask more questions, but perhaps the war between the two World Cluster is too intense, and the Returning Breath World urgently needs support.
Without asking any questions, they directly approved Black Soluo's expedition plan!
Furthermore, an additional two million golems were granted to Black Soluo for his use when he conquers the world!
The location of the Little Red Snake World had already been obtained. Although the Returning Breath World did not have a mothership from the Wizard World to conduct expeditions, it was not lacking in means.
Fortunately, the world of the little red snake is not far from a jump world located on the outer edge of the Returning Breath World.
Black Soluo can quickly reach the Little Red Snake World by using the jump world, which takes much longer than using the mothership.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's begin!"
Leo, in a bad mood, wanted to destroy something to vent his anger, and the Little Red Snake World seemed like a good option.
