Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 533: Soul Slave

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Soul slave!

This was a very special presence. Its meaning was obvious if taken literally. Soul slave was also a special kind of slave!

There was a distinction between a soul slave and giving up one’s Soul Seal.

If a martial expert gave up his Soul Seal and became other’s slave—unless this Master returned the Soul Seal to him, he could never improve his strength… even till the moment he died.

However, it was different for a soul slave!

Giving up a Soul Seal was that the slave gave a wisp of the root of his soul spirit to the Master, who could destroy this root as he pleased and let the slave die. On the contrary, in the case of a soul slave, the Master would use powerful magic to imprint a wisp of soul spirit—which acted as a mark—on the soul slave’s soul spirit. The Master could control the soul slave with their mind and make the soul slave’s soul spirit to break down, thus, killing the slave.

This soul spirit mark normally hid in the deepest part of one’s soul spirit, and the slave was completely unaware of its presence and couldn’t detect it at all. Therefore, when someone became a soul slave, they could continue to cultivate and strengthen their ability. The one difference was that their soul spirit would involuntarily create a notion that they could never disobey the Master and had to follow all the orders from the Master, including… the order to kill themselves.

Thus, the art of soul slave was obviously more advanced than that of the Soul Seal. If one took in a powerful soul slave, one would have a powerful fighter in the future. If the fighter continued to progress and even surpassed the Master, it would be an excellent deal for the Master.

The nine star spheres inside Jiang Yi were very peculiar. Phoenix Cry Thearch thought that he possessed an unlimited potential and decided to refine him into her soul slave.

Of course, it was quite complicated to refine a soul slave and would consume some power of the soul spirit. In addition, only the truly powerful martial artist dared to do it. Otherwise, if there was a backlash, one would be doomed.

Region Mistress Qing Yu didn’t dare to refine Jiang Yi because she felt that Jiang Yi was stronger than her. If something went wrong, she might be consumed by Jiang Yi instead.

It would naturally not be a problem for the Phoenix Cry Thearch!

Although this Thearch progressed by refining the Dao pattern shard, she was still a Heaven Monarch, which was a fact that couldn’t be changed. The Vajra Realm could crush the Soul Travel Realm easily; the Heaven Monarch Realm was even far better than the Vajra Realm. Under the Hades Abyss, Ji Tingyu used the Heaven Fate Great Array and suppressed Jiang Yi effortlessly. The power of a Heaven Monarch was evident.

Therefore, to Region Mistress Qing Yu, it was so simple for Phoenix Cry Thearch to refine Jiang Yi.

However, refining a soul slave needed silence and time, and one should never be disturbed during the process. After Phoenix Cry Thearch gave the order, Region Mistress Qing Yu immediately started to make arrangements. She imposed martial laws on the whole city. The castle was surrounded by and packed with numerous guards and soldiers.

Buzz!

After arranging for everything, she turned on the restrictions in the central hall. Then, she went to the small hall. She nodded at the Phoenix Cry Thearch and whispered, “Thearch, you can begin now.”

“Alright!”

The Phoenix Cry Thearch got up and slowly released her aura, which instantly shrouded the entire small hall like a violent storm. Her blurry face slowly turned clear.

What an unrivaled beauty!

Though Jiang Yi’s heart sank to the bottom, his eyes instinctively glowed.

The Phoenix Cry Thearch had extremely delicate features, which were even better than Su Ruoxue’s. Maybe as she liked women, she had a very unique bearing, giving people a seductive feeling. Being the ruler of the Phoenix Cry Thearch added another character to her. She was as majestic as a fairy on the Nine Heavens, tempting men to dominate her involuntarily.

Just imagine… having a Heaven Monarch Thearch under one’s body, looking at her amorous face, and listening to her captivating moaning… might drive any man crazy.

Buzz!

A black light lit up on the Phoenix Cry Thearch’s hand. Jiang Yi suddenly woke up from his daydream and felt ashamed in secret. He was about to be turned in to a soul slave and lose his freedom for life, and yet he still had the mood to think of these?

Tsk! Tsk!

The black light on her hand flashed by and instantly hit Jiang Yi’s head. As expected, Jiang Yi rolled his eyes and passed out.

“Qing Yu, unlock the Soul-Locking Chains.”

The Phoenix Cry Thearch smiled daintily, as beautiful as a blooming epiphyllum. Region Mistress Qing Yu looked as Jiang Yi warily, but then she thought that with the Phoenix Cry Thearch, it wouldn’t matter even if Jiang Yi woke up.

She walked a few steps forward. White light lit up in her hand, and she clenched the Soul-Locking Chains. As she inserted the essence force from her hand, the Soul-Locking Chains glimmered and soon fell out. Finally, it magically became smaller and smaller and turned into a bracelet around Region Mistress Qing Yu’s wrist.

When Region Mistress Qing Yu saw Phoenix Cry Thearch coming towards her. She lifted Jiang Yi with one hand to keep his body upright and made him sit cross-legged on the floor.

“Qing Yu is getting plumper recently!”

Phoenix Cry Thearch walked over gently. She slapped at Qing Yu’s voluptuous bosoms and said in a smile. The latter shivered. She looked back at the Phoenix Cry Thearch alluring and said bashfully, “Thearch, get the main thing done first…”

“Little bitch!”

Phoenix Cry Thearch waved her hand, and Qing Yu backed off for ten steps. The Thearch was getting serious. The black light flashed by her hand, and there were indistinct runic patterns shining on it. She slowly covered Jiang Yi’s head with the black light, and Jiang Yi was in a coma from the start.

Buzz!

When Phoenix Cry Thearch pressed her hand on Jiang Yi’s head, both his head and Phoenix Cry Thearch’s hand glowed simultaneously. The Thearch closed her eyes, appearing grave. Apparently, she began to release magical skills and refine Jiang Yi.

Qing Yu held her breath and swept around with her divine senses to make sure that no accident happened. Now was the most crucial moment. If there was any mistake—though it didn’t matter that Jiang Yi would die, the Phoenix Cry Thearch might be implicated as well, which would be a disaster to the continent.

A wisp of black energy slowly infiltrated into Jiang Yi’s soul spirit through his head. Jiang Yi was in a heavy stupor and was completely unconscious now. His Fire Spirit Pearl was taken by Qing Yu and couldn’t protect him automatically.

Therefore, that wisp of black energy entered his head unobstructed and eventually stayed in his soul spirit, outside that red sword-shaped soul spirit body.

Jiang Yi’s soul spirit had reached the tier two after he refined the Sweet Flag Leaf and condensed into a sword-shape soul spirit body, which was exactly the same as the Fire Dragon Sword but a hundred times smaller of course. After he refined two more Sweet Flag Leaves, this sword-shaped soul spirit body grew a lot bigger but still showed no sign of evolution.

“This spy’s soul spirit body is quite strange!”

This black energy was a wisp of soul spirit mark from the Phoenix Cry Thearch, and so she knew exactly what was like inside Jiang Yi’s soul spirit. Sighed, she controlled a soul spirit mark to slowly enter Jiang Yi’s sword-shaped soul spirit body.

Refining a soul slave was a very tedious process.

One had to control the soul spirit mark to enter the subject’s soul spirit body, search for his soul spirit brand, and then imprint the master’s soul spirit mark onto the subject’s soul spirit brand. In this way, the soul spirit of the slave would automatically generate submissive consciousness and would not dare to defy the master.

The stronger a martial artist’s soul spirit was and the more experiences one had, the more the soul spirit brands were. Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was fine, and he had up to nine soul spirit brands. Thus, the Phoenix Cry Thearch had to find all nine soul spirit brands inside his soul spirit body and imprint every one of them with her soul spirit mark.

“Got one!”

Soon, the Phoenix Cry Thearch’s wisp of black soul spirit mark found a soul spirit brand as tiny as dust. She then easily imprinted her soul spirit mark onto it.

One, two, three, four, five!

Time passed by slowly. Tiny beads of sweat began to surface on the smooth forehead of the Phoenix Cry Thearch. It was a drudgery to control one’s soul spirit mark and find small soul spirit brands inside the vast soul spirit body. She had to devote all her energy, and there was no room for mistake. Otherwise, that wisp of soul spirit mark might be consumed by the subject instead, and she would be finished.

Of course…

Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was so much weaker relative to hers. Right now, he was still in the coma and was unconscious.

However, even if he woke up, it wouldn’t really matter. At most, the Phoenix Cry Thearch would let go of her wisp of soul spirit before easily shattering Jiang Yi’s soul spirit and kill him.

Just as she was thinking about it!

Six, seven, eight!

When the Phoenix Cry Thearch found the eighth soul spirit brand, Jiang Yi’s soul spirit suddenly shook. He woke up!
