Chapter 59: Ancient Remnant Soul

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This was the graveyard of a human expert.

When he came, Adjutant Li had mentioned the origin of the Floating Forest.

It was the battlefield of both sides when the other world invaded.

Many human experts died.

The corpses of both sides became nutrients that nourished the Floating Forest.

Through the green caterpillar’s Spit Thread soul skill, Wang Che arrived at the floating dirt block the Soul Tempering Tree was pointing at.

This land was clearly much larger than other places.

The fog was even thicker.

When he landed on the ground, Wang Che finally saw a simple graveyard.

On the already mottled tombstone, there were a few vague ancient words that had undergone weathering:

[Eastern Dragon Empire, Saint Soul Master, Gu Sheng’s Tomb.]

Wang Che was slightly stunned.

According to the history of the high school, the Eastern Dragon Empire was the Eastern War Zone, a country that existed during the war more than two thousand years ago.

Saint Soul Masters were Contract Soul Masters who had reached Level 70.

He could definitely be considered a true expert.

“A person from more than 2,000 years ago… At that time, the Contract Soul Master just appeared…”

Wang Che looked around and indeed, he found a few patterns behind the tombstone.

On each pattern was a soul pet.

There were a total of five.

They were: Cloudy Dark Crow, Explosive Spirit Conch, Divine Sound Pig, Heavenly Mother Earth Worm, Cave Horn Dragon.

Seeing the pattern of these soul pets, Wang Che’s expression was complicated.

The reason was simple. These soul pets were all extinct.

There were records of both high school history and biology.

It was not that they were rare.

Among them, only the Heavenly Mother Earth Worm was a third stage evolution, a King-ranked soul pet.

The rest were all at the peerless level.

“In that battle, countless humans and soul pets were either injured or killed… many soul beasts were extinct because of this. However, after these years of recuperation, many new soul beast species were born… but it is very difficult for extinct soul beasts to appear again.”

Wang Che sighed inwardly.

Not counting the awakening of his memories, he had already lived in this world for 18 years. He still had a certain sense of identity with this world.

Professor Yan had said that before the war, there were at least a hundred soul beasts that could cultivate to a million years.

After the war, after so many years of cultivation, there were only ten or so soul beasts that had this aptitude.

They were definitely true divine beasts of heaven and earth.

Once extinct, it was almost impossible to see them again.

It was even more difficult to inherit the bloodline.

A light wind blew, as if an ancient soul was calling.

“Ssss!”

The green caterpillar naturally did not understand this scene.

It crawled to the side of the tombstone and saw the soul beasts’ carvings.

Its gaze landed on the Heavenly Mother Earth Worm. It could roughly sense that they were both insects and could not help but cry out twice.

Wang Che looked at the tombstone. As a human, he naturally did not want to dig up this tomb.

The cemetery did not look well protected. There were traces of digging on it.

This meant that someone had actually come to dig it up.

Unfortunately, it was too old. Even the words on the tombstone were gradually deformed.

Moreover, this was a battlefield. The tombstones were definitely not built long ago.

It must have been built according to the traces left behind when the later generations came to explore.

Where else could there be treasure?

“They were all heroes of the past…”

Wang Che sighed, “The soul of the ancestor has passed away. I can only chant the Afterlife Sutra for you to express my sincerity.”

In his previous life, he cultivated the Dao, Buddha, and Demon together and was proficient in various techniques of the cultivation world.

This Afterlife Sutra was only meant to pacify the soul. It did not require magic power and was not rare.

Although the rules of the world were different, the souls were the same.

Wang Che sat down and calmed his mind.

When the green caterpillar saw Wang Che do this, although it did not know anything, it felt that it was very amazing.

It also ran over and lay down obediently with its not-so-long body.

Then, Wang Che chanted softly.

An ancient sound slowly came from his mouth…

The green caterpillar felt that it could not understand what Wang Che was saying.

It tilted its head and looked at him.

The head was confused. It could understand human language.

But now…

Soul cries sounded, dark winds howled…

Although the green caterpillar could not hear what Wang Che was saying, it slowly calmed down, its expression inexplicably calm and peaceful…

In less than half an hour.

Wang Che opened his eyes.

The green caterpillar had already fallen asleep…

Wang Che: “…”

Alright, this was a lullaby now.

Wang Che patted the green caterpillar’s head to wake it up.

“Let’s go. There’s no Soul Tempering Tree here. Let’s find the next one and continue asking.”

Wang Che patted the dust off his body.

“Huh?”

The green caterpillar opened its eyes groggily. It had just slept and felt very comfortable.

Wang Che repaired the tomb slightly before planning to go to the next floating land block.

However, at this moment, the tombstone suddenly emitted a faint glimmer.

“What?”

Wang Che stopped in his tracks.

In the next moment, an ethereal figure slowly rose from the tomb and transformed into the outline of a broken figure.

“The soul’s remnant will?”

Wang Che’s gaze narrowed. He had encountered many remnant souls.

In his previous life, he had encountered it when exploring many ancient immortal tombs.

There were immortal tombs that had existed for hundreds of thousands of years in the universe. A wisp of immortal remnant will could easily kill a large number of Nascent Soul and Soul Formation Stage mighty figures.

However, Wang Che did not expect to meet a remnant soul in this world.

“It’s unconscious…”

Wang Che only took a glance and shook his head. It had been too long. This remnant soul clearly had no consciousness.

It was more like a ball of soul energy.

Moreover, as soon as it came out, the feeling was about to dissipate.

It was probably because of the scripture he had chanted that had awakened it.

Soul energy…

Wang Che was slightly stunned.

Immediately after, the remnant soul flew towards Wang Che.

It turned into a stream and entered Wang Che’s mind.

In an instant, his soul felt an impact. But who was he?

In his previous life, he had traveled the universe and was almost comparable to an Immortal Ascension Stage mighty figure. How could he be compared to this mere remnant soul?

Moreover, the interesting thing was that this remnant soul was very gentle. Wang Che did not know if it was out of instinct or because of the sutra.

Or both?

But at this moment, Wang Che could not care less.

The remnant soul might be useless to others, but to Wang Che, it was a treasure.

Because with such a gentle remnant soul, Wang Che could cultivate his soul.

The greatest benefit of cultivating the soul was that it could produce divine sense!

The divine sense was usually born in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

To actively cultivate divine sense, one might need to be at the Golden Core Realm.

It was extremely dangerous when it involved the soul. If one was careless, they would be doomed.

Moreover, there were very few cultivation techniques that required special cultivation techniques to cultivate divine sense in the cultivation world.

It was extremely difficult.

“This came too suddenly… Although this remnant soul can’t produce divine sense, it can definitely make my soul stronger.”

Wang Che was surprised.

He had originally wanted to find some opportunities for the green caterpillar, but he did not expect the opportunity to land on his head.
