"People with perfect souls, even when their perfect souls are extracted, their bodies themselves are shells that nurture souls; as long as there is sufficient energy, such a perfect soul can be regenerated.
A regenerated perfect soul will be even more perfect, stronger."
"Lei Yan King gave birth to a second perfect soul but ended up betraying himself, giving up on himself, sealing himself.
Is Nine Revivals to welcome a brand new life as Sword Venerate, or will it culminate in complete silence, death, and eternal fall into reincarnation?"
"Not even the gods from the True God Plane have found the answer."
"As for you, are you Lei Yan King? This question will soon have an answer."
"But for now, you must wait for me to finish speaking—all my words—this is my mission."
Zhuge Wuwei spoke, heaving a deep sigh, his aged face displaying a bleak smile.
"Lei Yan King’s life was a bloody struggle for his family, lover, and friends, yet he became a pariah, abandoned by all—until the final reveal of the truth, which was deeply lamentable and heartbreaking."
"He held no hatred; instead, he used his last bit of strength to seal their memories, even utilizing the Time Trace Technique to restore their Tao Rules, allowing them to remain in their former state, to cultivate anew, to walk a different path in life."
"But the more Lei Yan King did, the less people understood."
"Nobody understood, nor did they try."
"They would only say, ’Lei Yan King? Inhuman, worse than a beast!’ They would only say, ’Lei Yan King is like King Yan, a slaughter devil!’"
"Yet they never considered that the world could be stable or that in the future, direct insight into the Divine Realm Ninth Transition’s Tao might descend upon the Nine Origin Reincarnation, thanks to Lei Yan King breaking certain rules to fight for them."
"They won’t say it, nor will they think it. Because the worst nature of people is, indeed, that they can share adversities but not wealth; they can discard everything to live carelessly."
"Lei Yan King’s Three Souls and Seven Spirits were shattered, and the one who delivered the most severe blow was the one he loved most."
"With the Three Souls and Seven Spirits broken, having the Nine Orifice Exquisite Heart should have meant not dying, but the heart, too, was taken by an upper being because of that woman, leading to the loss of the source of power, with predictable consequences."
"Lee Ran passed up the chance of divine realm rebirth, fell into a Demon Heart, using it as the source of power to condense his shattered Seven Spirits, stabilizing the spark of life by infusing his own soul, and to live seven more lives through the Sword God’s rebirth ability—sadly, five were slain.
The sixth incarnation, a failed fusion—this person, named ’Yang Qingtan.’
And the seventh incarnation, which is more complete, is now you."
"And the remaining Three Souls evolved into the ’Heavenly Soul Mountain’ in the Heavenly Emperor Universe. Those shattered pieces of soul power turned into Heavenly Mechanism Soul Stones."
"So, reaching the peak of Sword Void Nine Changes means your spirit is complete and can exist independently.
Therefore, the soul enhancement from Lee Ran will be lifted off you.
To stabilize and further advance, you will need to go to the Heavenly Emperor Universe in search of Lei Yan King’s fragmented Three Souls."
"Heavenly Soul Mountain has become a terrifying force, like a Secret Realm. It will be difficult for you to obtain it."
"But that is just the first step."
"After Heavenly Soul Mountain, when you obtain Lei Yan King’s Residual Soul, your realm will fluctuate, manifesting the Sword Void Nine Changes Realm. Your combat power won’t be affected much—the only good news is your mortal decline hasn’t arrived, which is very fortunate.
Only then can you unlock the Starry Sky Gate of Purgatory Ancestor Star.
Through the Starry Sky Gate of Purgatory Ancestor Star, you must go to the Netherworld Life and Death Illusion Realm, to obtain the Holy Daughter’s soul, healing the Soul Loss of Lei Yan King’s fragmented Three Souls—Gu Xi’s injuries require just a strand of the Holy Daughter’s Life Soul to heal."
"Compared to Lei Yan King’s soul damage, Gu Xi’s situation is truly inconsequential."
"So, although you can now unlock the last Memory Inheritance from your brother, I advise you not to do it yet."
"Once you return from Heavenly Soul Mountain, you’ll be here, and by then, he will open that last strand of inherited memory without needing a reminder from me."
"So, where is this last inheritance memory? It’s fine to tell you now. This final inheritance, the protection of your fragmented soul by your brother, has always accompanied you—correct, it is that special space in your glabella, the Purple Flame Void."
"They say life is a bridge. So, the soul is the bridge to the soul. To protect your growth, to witness your rise, he naturally stays with you always.
Once you unlock this final inheritance, the Purple Flame Void will vanish. The consequences... Lee Ran promised Lei Yan King to take care of his daughter Yanyan, who will also lose her sanctuary, revealing that safe passage.
Therefore, Lei Yan King’s daughter Yanyan will be in constant danger of being hunted.
And without Lee Ran’s soul bridge, unless you reach the Divine Level Third Transformation or higher realm, you absolutely cannot contact Yanyan.
In other words, from then on, you will no longer see Yanyan.
The vastness of the Divine Plane is unimaginable. Comparable to the Nine Origin Universe, it is but a drop in the ocean. By that time, whether Yanyan can live safely is an unknown."
"The later you unlock the inheritance, the better.
However, Lee Ran’s power can only maintain this bridge of souls for another hundred years at most; you just need to awaken Lei Yan King’s Three Souls within a century."
"But be aware that after you go to Heavenly Soul Mountain, once you obtain Lei Yan King’s Three Souls, and as part of your memories unravel, this Purple Flame Void will also disintegrate by itself."
"Yanyan’s crisis will inevitably come—sooner or later. The difference is, the faster Lei Yan King’s power awakens, the less the risk."
"These are all the answers. If you had known this from the beginning, you probably would have been in despair by now. But now, there is still hope."
"In the Heavenly Emperor Universe, although the Three Souls of Lei Yan King are fragmented, once you get them, you have the hope to truly awaken Lei Yan King’s strength. Although the progress of your realm might be insufficient, if you can acquire the Holy Daughter’s Life Soul for repair, that is an ascent to the heavens! Many things, you can face on your own."
"The path that Lee Ran has left for you, I do not know, but it should be to go to your Soul Ancestral Land, to activate the supreme Emperor Bloodline, allowing you to create a perfect soul again, overshadowing people like Jiang Tianxin... Regardless, cherish the journey ahead, slow and steady."
