The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2418 - 2407: Soul Point Platform
Previously on The Strongest Dandy in the City...
In the front of the great hall.
There was an extremely large ritual altar.
The entire altar was a deep, dark red color.
A very complex formation was drawn under the altar.
What caused Ye Chenfeng’s eyes to show a solemn look was not the dark-colored altar, but the souls suspended above it.
All these souls were trapped above the altar, with roughly thousands of them.
Based on the aura these souls emitted, Ye Chenfeng deduced that even the weakest among them should at least be at the Initial Stage of the Heavenly God Realm.
On the surface of the altar, there was an opening similar to a mouth, continuously inhaling and exhaling black mist, as if relentlessly absorbing the power of the thousands of souls.
Ye Chenfeng’s gaze focused on the center of these souls, and he saw a dragon-shaped soul appearing in his sight.
When a soul from the Dragon Clan is extracted from the body, it returns to its true form, so this dragon-shaped soul should be Long Wenshi’s.
What does the Zhengqi Sect intend to do with so many souls?
Ye Chenfeng’s figure moved towards the altar, but as he reached the altar and tried to touch it, the formation drawn underneath emanated a burst of light, and a surge of power suddenly struck him, forcing him to step back three steps, with a tightness in his chest.
Ye Chenfeng fixed his gaze on the formation under the altar, finding it to be extremely perfect, so perfect that he couldn’t find a way to break it.
Old Bai and Old Hei remained silent after seeing the altar.
Finally, Old Hei Jiang Yuntian spoke up, "Soul Point Platform? Could this really be the legendary Soul Point Platform? Could it be that the Soul Point Platform actually exists?"
Old Bai Wu Fengxian also said heavily, "This should be the Soul Point Platform; it matches the description in legends perfectly. How could such an evil method appear in our era?"
Upon hearing Old Bai and Old Hei, Ye Chenfeng pondered in his heart, "Old Bai, Old Hei, what is the Soul Point Platform?"
Old Hei Jiang Yuntian explained with a mysterious tone, "Kid, the origin of the Soul Point Platform traces back to the Chaos Era, when various peerless beings emerged, and many incredible things appeared. Although the Initial Stage of the Ancient Era was the most brilliant, the Chaos Era was the most mysterious."
"It’s said that during the Chaos Era, a peerless demon painstakingly created a Soul Point Platform."
"This Soul Point Platform can gather thousands upon thousands of souls, eventually merging them into a single soul, known as the Ghost Fiend Soul."
"The Ghost Fiend Soul is a puppet soul with no consciousness of its own, and when the Soul Point Platform is activated, the activator drips their blood into it, and the merged Ghost Fiend Soul obeys only the activator’s orders."
"As long as enough souls are gathered, it’s said that even a Ghost Fiend Soul at the Divine Emperor Realm can be formed. However, forming a Ghost Fiend Soul at the Divine Emperor Realm requires far more than just millions of souls. Based on our calculations, with the current number of souls on this Soul Point Platform, a Ghost Fiend Soul at the Peak of the Divine Venerable Realm could be formed, yet it would merely be a newly entered peak-level Ghost Fiend Soul."
"The soul of Long Wenshi in the center of the Soul Point Platform should serve as the main soul; although Long Wenshi’s strength is somewhat weak, since he is a dragon soul, his soul is more than sufficient as the main soul of the Soul Point Platform."
"Yet the Soul Point Platform should have disappeared long ago. Even in the Ancient Era, we never heard of it appearing."
"The peerless demon of the Chaos Era had indeed formed a Ghost Fiend Soul at the Extreme Peak of the Divine Venerable Realm."
"Ultimately, the peerless beings of the Chaos Era joined forces and eradicated that demon. Since then, the Soul Point Platform vanished."
"Before entering the Ancient Era, the peerless beings of the Chaos Era mysteriously fell one after another. As the Ancient Era began, the Dragon Clan rose to prominence, ruling the world for some time."
After listening to Old Hei’s explanation,
Ye Chenfeng furrowed his brows and asked, "How can we rescue the soul of Long Wenshi now?"
Old Bai replied, "The formation beneath the Soul Point Platform seeped out after it was activated from within by the Chaos Era’s peerless demon’s design. Breaking this formation might be challenging for the three of us."
"Now, there’s only one last option: you must channel the Dragon Clan leader’s mark on your back to summon Long Wenshi’s soul, allowing the Dragon Soul Stone’s soul to fly out of the Soul Point Platform by itself."
"Old Hei and I notice that the formation under the Soul Point Platform prevents outside forces from entering, while the souls floating above it are merely trapped by a force. If you can use the Dragon Clan leader’s mark to help Long Wenshi’s soul escape its confines, the formation under the Soul Point Platform won’t stop the soul from flying out."
Upon hearing this,
Ye Chenfeng didn’t hesitate much further.
He began to activate the Dragon Clan leader’s mark on his back.
Attempting to summon Long Wenshi’s soul with the Dragon Clan leader’s mark.
What emanated from the mark was not power, but an aura that the formation under the Soul Point Platform wouldn’t block.
Long Wenshi’s captured soul.
Was in a state without awareness, but upon feeling the summon of the Dragon Clan leader’s mark, it instinctively started to struggle.
Ye Chenfeng accelerated the activation of the Dragon Clan leader’s mark, and the summoning force from the mark could enhance Long Wenshi’s soul power.
Long Wenshi’s soul struggled more and more intensely.
Ye Chenfeng pushed the Dragon Clan leader’s mark on his back to its peak.
Generally, outsiders cannot affect the souls on the Soul Point Platform because the formation blocks external forces, but Ye Chenfeng is an exception. Additionally, since the soul trapped on the Soul Point Platform is of the Dragon Clan, if it were someone else’s soul, Ye Chenfeng would probably be powerless. It is only by relying on the Dragon Clan leader’s mark that he forcibly summoned Long Wenshi’s soul.
As Long Wenshi’s soul continued to struggle,
the confining power diminished more and more.
Ye Chenfeng exhausted all his energy to operate the Dragon Clan leader’s mark, channeling all his focus into the mark, which was an extremely taxing effort.
As time passed,
much of the confining power on Long Wenshi’s soul vanished, with his dragon-shaped soul’s head and half of its body emerging from the Soul Point Platform.
