“Such a rookie mistake, you actually… Forget it, forget it. I’ll leave Wailing Mountain now and see if that remnant soul has left this place. As for you, stay in Wailing Mountain. Once you discover anything, contact me immediately.”
Victor impatiently replied Gongye Yuyu, then turned around and flew away.
If the remnant soul had already left Wailing Mountain, the longer he stayed here, the less likely Victor would recover the remnant soul.
Upon leaving Wailing Mountain, Victor was clueless. After all, it was just a remnant soul. To put it bluntly, it could go anywhere it wanted. Searching for the remnant soul in the vast Central Plains was like looking for a needle in a haystack!
“Think of a way. How do I find him?”
With no other way out, Victor could only place his hopes on the mountain spirit in his body.
“Don’t look at me. What can I do? There’s no way to connect the remnant souls unless I use a secret technique. However, this will also attract the attention of certain existences. This is no different from a disaster for you.”
“Then what should I do? Do you not want this remnant soul?”
“You seem to be more impatient than me. Can you give me a reason?”
“What reason do I need? You helped me increase the power of my qi and blood and strengthened the power of my soul. This is a huge favor. I will keep it in my heart. Since I promised to help you repair your soul, I will not go back on my word.” Victor’s expression was not too sightly. He smiled self-deprecatingly and continued, “However, now that I can’t even collect this remnant soul, how can I repair your soul?”
“Actually… it’s not entirely impossible. It’s just that this method might require you to make some sacrifices.”
At the right time, the mountain spirit said this, and Victor’s eyes lit up when he heard it.
“Tell me quickly!”
“You should know that I’ve already cultivated the mountain spirit. In essence, I’m already somewhat different from the remnant soul. Therefore, if I want to find the location of the other remnant souls, I will need a physical body. Of course, it won’t take too long. 15 minutes is enough.”
“Then what are you waiting for? Is there anything more suitable than my physical body?”
“No, you don’t understand. Right now, I’m in an incomplete state. Once I fuse with your physical body, I’ll madly absorb the soul power in your body. With my rank, you’ll die within an hour!
“Even if I only fuse with you for 15 minutes, the damages done to you will be unimaginable. In fact, it won’t lose out to you increasing that woman’s cultivation base.”
“This…”
A short fuse would require him to sleep for more than ten days. Such a huge sacrifice calmed Victor down.
“Speaking of which, I have an idea…”
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Victor’s mind. He had an excellent idea.
“Try and see if you can parasitize this long sword.”
Victor’s mind moved. The Rose Sword flew out from behind him and sent itself into Victor’s hand.
“This is… a soul weapon?!”
“That’s right. There were many souls in the Rose Sword. Can you be like them and parasitize the sword?”
“I can, but when I complete my soul in the future, it will also be the day this sword is destroyed. To be honest, soul weapons are very rare and precious. Can you bear to part with it?”
“That… it’s fine!”
After hesitating for a moment, Victor finally convinced himself.
“Don’t regret it.”
“I won’t regret it! As long as you give me one in the future, it will be fine. Of course! It’s not that I can’t bear to part with this sword, it’s just that this Rose Sword belongs to a confidante of mine. I’m just borrowing it.”
“Soul weapons are unlikely, but a heaven-grade magic weapon is possible.”
“That’s fine!”
No matter how Victor thought about it, he did not find it disadvantageous if he used an earth-grade magic weapon to exchange for a heaven-grade magic weapon!
“Alright, then I’ll have to ask you to spread my remnant soul out of the mountain spirit. Also, be careful. Without my guidance, the mountain spirit will quickly dissipate. Before that, you have to refine it. This way, your qi and blood power will have an unimaginable growth!”
“Don’t worry, I’m going to start.” Victor nodded and said in a deep voice. Then, he wrapped the mountain spirit with his qi and pulled the remnant soul out like a cocoon, guiding it into the Rose Sword.
Very soon, a huge amount of spiritual power exploded from Victor’s body. Without the remnant soul’s guidance, this power was like a headless fly, rampaging inside Victor’s body and harming him, it was not even inferior to the spiritual power at the peak of the nascent soul realm that he carried previously!
Not only that, Victor could feel his body carrying an unimaginable weight of life. It was as if there was a pair of invisible hands firmly pressing down on Victor!
Bean-sized sweat seeped out from Victor’s forehead, and his spine twisted into an unimaginable shape. It was as if in the next moment, Victor’s entire body would be crushed into a pile of meat paste by this huge pressure!
Creaking sounds that made one’s teeth ache could be heard coming from Victor’s body. His bones continuously pressed against each other, causing a heart-piercing pain!
However, at the same time, the remnant soul did not feel good either.
Being separated from the mountain spirit was like a person’s heart being gouged out and placed in another body. The tearing pain made it almost impossible for the remnant soul to maintain its figure. It was as if it would completely dissipate in the next moment!
Fortunately, the remnant soul managed to survive in the end. The moment it successfully parasitized the Rose Sword, the last bit of mountain spirit in Victor’s body was completely refined by him!
This action allowed Victor to finally break through the extreme power of the mountain stage!
It was not an exaggeration to say that if Victor were to fight against the Soaring Serpent, he would now be able to hold the upper hand!
Victor clenched his fists and could not help but smile as he felt the abundant energy in his body.
“From today onwards! Mountain-moving and sea-filling are no longer empty words!”
“Alright, don’t flatter yourself… I can sense the location of the remnant soul. It’s in the east.”
“How far is it?”
“It’s hard to say. I can only roughly sense its location.”
“It doesn’t matter. As long as it hasn’t left the Central Plains, it won’t be able to escape!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Victor grunted and exerted force with his legs. With a loud bang, the ground collapsed!
On the other hand, Victor soared into the sky like a cannonball! In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived more than ten miles away!
Feeling the wind whistling past his ears, Victor could not help but clench his fists.
Now, of the four stages of the mountain, thunder, rain, and wind, the mountain, and wind stages had already been solved, leaving only the thunder and rain stages. As long as he broke through these two levels, Victor’s strength cultivation would increase by one level!
Even if he did not rely on his sword intent and cultivation techniques, just his physical body and his power of qi and blood alone would enable him to take on a mid-stage nascent soul realm expert!
Of course, beyond this level, the damage to Victor’s physical body would be great, but even so, it was still shocking!
