Immortal Reincarnation Tribulation

Chapter 276 Soul Transformation

"There's no need for you to trouble yourself, senior. Since you're not interested in my previous suggestion, I'm afraid I'll have to presumptuously challenge you." The voice transmission came from the first cyan figure.

After speaking, the two cyan figures moved simultaneously, shooting out and appearing directly in front of and behind the white figure, completely blocking its path of advance or retreat.

The second cyan figure was actually the second soul hidden in Du Fan's primordial spirit space. It had once caused great harm to Gui Yuan, the proud disciple of the Burial Ghost Sect, making him unable to use the Soul Devouring Technique, and ultimately causing him to perish both in body and soul.

The experience of almost having his soul devoured and his divine consciousness absorbed back then has always been like a heavy stone weighing on Du Fan's heart. Therefore, after joining the Qixia Sect, he took advantage of his status as a sect elder to read through a large number of related books in the sect's library.

He quickly gained a quantitative understanding of those ethereal elements such as divine consciousness and soul. It turned out that all the spiritual elements in a cultivator's body existed in a place in the mind called the Primordial Spirit Space.

This space appears very small from the outside, as it is only a small part of a cultivator's brain, about the size of a fingernail. However, within the primordial spirit space, it is a completely different world, even infinitely large, just like a storage artifact. It seems to contain spatial laws, truly profound and unpredictable.

The cultivator's soul exists in this primordial spirit space, which resembles the beginning of chaos, and takes the form of a ball of light. It is difficult to describe the size of this ball of light. It can be regarded as an insignificant speck of dust, or it can be understood as a star in the vast chaos. However, in this vast chaos, there is only this one star.

Under normal circumstances, whether one is an ordinary mortal or a cultivator with earth-shattering abilities, as long as one is human, one will possess three souls and seven spirits, which are contained within the soul sphere.

The unique divine sense of cultivators is naturally also within this soul sphere. As for divine thought, it is actually the most common application of divine sense, and can also be understood as the concrete realization of divine sense. If quantified, divine thought is contained within divine sense.

Later, Du Fan met Master Jiuyang at the bottom of Hundred Flowers Valley. From Master Jiuyang, he gained a deeper understanding of divine sense and the primordial spirit space. It was from then on that he vaguely felt that he seemed to have two souls.

The existence of two souls in one person is naturally inconceivable to others, but in Du Fan's view, it can be said to be both unexpected and reasonable, because he himself was a soul that transmigrated to the Blue Star Realm, so it is not unacceptable for an extra soul to appear in his primordial spirit space.

After returning to Qixia Sect from Hundred Flowers Valley, Du Fan made a snap decision and specifically sought out Sect Master Maple Leaf. He practically pestered him until he obtained the qualification to peruse confidential texts at the level of a Supreme Elder. During that reading, Du Fan was surprised to learn some more about the soul.

He vaguely learned that a person's memories are also contained within their soul, but he was different from others. His memories belonged to two souls. His memories of this life in the Blue Star Realm existed within the first cyan figure, while his memories of his previous life on Earth existed within the soul sphere that he usually hid.

Of course, this is not absolute. Information between the two souls often interacts, but with Du Fan's current cultivation level and experience, it is impossible for him to fully comprehend such complex and ethereal matters.

During his time browsing through the confidential texts at Qixia Sect, Du Fan benefited immensely. He not only learned about many mysterious elements within the primordial spirit space and their relationships, but also secretly learned how to activate his thoughts within his soul, as well as the profound and mysterious art of soul transformation.

Therefore, at this moment, Du Fan really didn't need to show much fear when facing the little white figure.

If they were outside, and the other party had turned into that skeleton, Du Fan knew he wouldn't have a chance of winning. However, since they were now in his own primordial spirit space, where he was the main force, he naturally had a combat power boost. Moreover, their soul power seemed to be about the same.

More importantly, he was still fighting two against one here, so the outcome was quite obvious.

The white figure was well aware of its predicament. Its face was contorted, and it looked like a madman. It raised its head and let out a silent roar. Its white pupils were faintly glowing red. The next moment, its eyes were fixed on the first blue figure. A fierce light flashed in its eyes, and it was ready to fight to the death.

Just then, the white figure suddenly felt a pain in its shoulder. Turning its head, it discovered that the second cyan figure had somehow gotten behind it and opened its mouth wide, biting down hard on its shoulder.

The little white figure was filled with shock and anger. It was too late to dodge now, so he could only raise his arm and throw a punch.

However, the cyan figure knew when to stop. With a sway of its body, it instantly transformed into a streak of cyan light and fled into the distance, causing the white figure to miss its target.

"Ah..." A silent, mournful wail came from the white little man's mouth. A large chunk of light had been torn off his shoulder by the blue little man, leaving a dent.

The blue light in the distance faded, and the figure of a second blue figure reappeared. He was standing there chewing on his own, as if he were devouring the flesh and blood of the other.

"It tastes good."

The one transmitting the message was the first cyan figure. At this moment, he actually stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, a look of intoxication on his face, as if he were experiencing the same thing.

To the white-haired little man, this scene was truly bizarre, filling him with both rage and a profound sense of dread.

But soon, the sense of horror that permeated the mind of the white little man was replaced by anger. His eyes suddenly blazed with fierce light, and then his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already about ten feet behind the second blue little man. He opened his big mouth and rushed over instantly, as if he wanted to take back the ball of light on his shoulder.

The cyan figure smirked, and with a single hand gesture, vanished in an instant, leaving the white figure missing its target once more.

The white figure was taken aback, but before he could take any further action, a piercing pain suddenly shot through his thigh. He looked down and his expression froze. The first blue figure had appeared there at some point and was biting his inner thigh hard with its mouth wide open.

The white figure's eyes flashed with shame and anger. Just as he raised his arms, preparing to smash them down, a sudden, intense pain shot through his neck.

The second cyan figure that had fled earlier returned and silently crept up behind him, biting down on the back of his neck. With a swift movement of its mouth, it tore off a large chunk of light, nearly severing his entire neck.

The white figure was startled. Without saying a word, he quickly made a hand seal and his entire figure disappeared in an instant. When he reappeared, he was already a great distance away from the two blue figures.

At this moment, the white figure's face was filled with panic and resentment. After giving the two blue figures a venomous look, it immediately turned around and flew away into the distance. It seemed that it had already given up on this attempt to possess someone.

"Senior, what kind of place is your primordial spirit space? You can come and go as you please. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?" The cold, detached voice instantly entered the white figure's mind, immediately turning into a roar that echoed for a moment.

The white figure in the escaping light suddenly shuddered violently, stumbled and fell out, spitting out a mouthful of white mist, which was not blood, but a primordial soul power.

The little white figure now appeared to have shrunk in size, its light had dimmed, and fear was evident on its face.

Just as the white figure moved, intending to flee again regardless of everything, a sudden surge of chaotic energy appeared on its left and right sides, and two cyan figures instantly appeared, rushing straight towards the white figure without saying a word.

"Ah..." With a scream from the little white figure, two more deep dents appeared on its chest and abdomen.

Ignoring the excruciating pain emanating from the depths of his soul, the white figure seized the opportunity presented by the attacks of the two cyan figures and vanished in an instant. However, the same scene repeated itself moments later…

After about several hours, the little white figure had transformed into a beehive-like structure, its entire body covered with countless pits, some even going right through. It was truly riddled with holes, giving anyone who saw it a feeling of unease that made their hair stand on end.

At this moment, the white figure's entire body glowed extremely dimly, and with a slight flicker, signs of instability in its form were clearly visible, as if it would disintegrate at any moment.

"Boy, if you're willing to let me go, you can take that Qiankun Ring as you please, I won't pursue the matter. Moreover, I'll teach you a powerful secret technique that will guarantee your successful Foundation Establishment. Besides..."

The white figure's face had lost all its initial arrogance. Its eyes were dim, filled with intense fear. Now, it had no airs left and hurriedly transmitted its voice in a trembling voice, almost pleading.

Before the little white figure could finish speaking, Du Fan suddenly shouted, "Hmph, senior, isn't that nonsense? After I kill you, the Qiankun Ring will naturally belong to me."

At this point, the white figure formed from Du Fan's soul suddenly paused, and a strange expression immediately appeared on its face.

Upon seeing this, the little white figure seemed to realize something, and its whole body trembled instantly, thinking to itself, "This is bad!"
