Chapter 500

~7 min read 1,275 words

"The Heaven and Earth Furnace is a magic array created by the Soul Emperor using the unique environment of the Spark Continent."

"Hmm, it is rumored that this Gale Abyss was once part of the Soul Emperor's Heaven and Earth Furnace array, and later it slowly formed the Gale Abyss."

"The Gale Abyss is actually part of some array?" Zhao Xing listened quietly, feeling it was incredible.

"The Soul Emperor succeeded, and he also failed."

"The Soul Tower he refined reached the legendary top grade!"

"But he also failed."

"The Soul Emperor's soul was not eternal; anyway, when I obtained it, I didn't find the Soul Emperor's spark inside, only his last words."

"He said the Soul Tower was a semi-finished product and asked later generations to continue perfecting it according to the refining method he left behind."

Zhao Xing was shocked; the top-grade legendary Soul Tower was still a semi-finished product?

"When I obtained it at the time, I didn't take it to heart," Yuan's voice was somewhat emotional.

"At that time, I was already invincible in the world, so how could I listen to the Soul Emperor?"

"Until the first expedition beyond the heavens, I didn't take this matter to heart."

"This also buried hidden dangers for my second war failure."

Yuan's voice was somewhat heavy.

"After the second expedition, my soul was severely wounded."

"After escaping back, I studied it painstakingly and also spent endless materials, perfecting the Soul Tower according to the refining method left by the Soul Emperor."

Zhao Xing's heart suddenly tightened. Did Yuan succeed?

If according to the Empire's classification of legendary equipment and treasures:

Legendary Early Grade, Legendary Mid Grade, Legendary High Grade, Top-Grade Legendary, and Invincible Legendary.

Generally speaking, only a Void Prince would have such a top-grade legendary item.

They were rare, even rarer than troop types.

Of course, this category does not include mechanical equipment.

After all, there is the Great Emperor.

There are still quite a few mechanical legendary equipment.

As for going a step further than top-grade legendary, it is Invincible Legendary!

It essentially still belongs to 'Top-Grade Legendary.'

But it is extremely famous, and its effects are stronger!

Because Invincible Legendary treasures have gone through countless trials.

It has been proven that this equipment is unsolvable within the same grade!

For example, a legendary mecha left by the Great Emperor; when the Great Emperor created it, he only named it Number 4.

Mecha No. 4, however, has terrifying speed!

Ever since it was bestowed upon the Mechanical Lord 'Venerable Ming' four thousand years ago.

On the Myriad Races Battlefield, Venerable Ming has never been defeated.

Because speed is an invincible existence; even Void Grade enemies holding top-grade legendary items cannot catch up.

This led to the No. 4 legendary mecha being classified into a separate rank.

Namely, 'Invincible Legendary Grade.'

Venerable Ming himself also looked down on other Void Grades because of this equipment.

Therefore, Void Grade Lords holding this type of Invincible Legendary.

Are also a unique existence and can be classified into the 'Void Invincible' level.

"If Yuan successfully perfected the Soul Tower, wouldn't the Soul Tower belong to the 'Invincible Legendary' level?"

Zhao Xing thought to himself.

At this time, Yuan's voice sounded.

"I perfected the Soul Tower and finally took its effects a step further. However, I didn't let it reach the level the Soul Emperor envisioned, because the materials on the Spark Continent are limited."

"Whether the current Soul Tower can be called an Invincible Legendary treasure, I leave it to later generations to verify."

Yuan continued: "With the rule trials I set, even if a Star Rank Lord learns the first five layers of the Soul-Slaughtering Art, they can only barely drive 1% of the Soul Tower's power."

"If they haven't learned the Soul-Slaughtering Art, I'm afraid that even reaching the Void Early Grade, they wouldn't be able to achieve even 1% of the power."

"So remember, the Soul-Slaughtering Art must not be passed on!"

"The following are the functions of the Soul Tower."

Subsequently, although Zhao Xing had not yet driven the Soul Tower, he immediately knew its effects.

The Soul Tower has a total of five layers, each of which possesses the 'attack' effects of the Soul-Slaughtering Art.

Namely, Soul Threads, Soul Black Hole, Abyss Eye, Soul-Slaughtering Domain, and World of Souls.

Of course, the main function of the Soul Tower is not 'attack.'

It is defense and containment.

Because the Soul Emperor's initial vision was to make the soul immortal.

The Soul-Slaughtering Art is merely an incidental attack power; even so, this set of secret techniques to drive it is at the Void Grade secret technique level.

And the final 'World of Souls.'

Is the Soul Emperor wanting to create a world where the 'soul' lives forever.

Even hiding the soul core within the world of the Soul Tower.

No matter how severe the soul damage is, one can be reborn from the Soul Tower.

But clearly his vision was unrealistic.

This caused the Soul Tower to instead become a legendary equipment with extremely powerful defense and containment capabilities.

"The Soul Tower can absorb and pull away the life souls in a range, locking them into the Soul Tower."

"Secondly, the Soul Tower can protect the soul core and resist damage for it; this is also its most powerful function."

Zhao Xing pondered the functions of the Soul Tower.

"Yuan once said that there are many powerful spark souls detained within the Soul Tower."

"They were collected by Yuan in an attempt to compensate for his soul injuries; the Soul Tower can refine these soul bodies and absorb them to supplement the owner."

"But because there were no souls of his level on the Spark Continent, they were ultimately not used."

"Absorbing souls to supplement oneself, why does this sound so evil?" Zhao Xing was stunned.

But then remembering the story Yuan told, he immediately understood that this Soul Emperor was probably an evil tyrant.

To refine the Soul Tower, he could even cause the country to collapse.

He even caused a dangerous place like the Gale Abyss.

"Regardless of whether he is good or bad, treasures follow the owner; a kind heart is righteous, an evil heart is evil."

Zhao Xing's mind sank into the Soul Tower.

According to Yuan, many souls were detained on each layer of the Soul Tower.

Because the Soul Tower was an ownerless object back then, it attracted many people who wanted to subdue it.

As a result, their soul sparks were all absorbed by the Soul Tower.

Over time, when Yuan first obtained it, there were over ten trillion extraordinary spark sources on the first layer!

"Hmm? Empty?!"

Zhao Xing saw that the first layer inside the Soul Tower was empty.

"That's right, the soul sparks of extraordinary life are weaker and cannot survive for so many years, and Yuan's ruins have been buried underground for two or three thousand years."

Extraordinary-grade soul sparks collapse in two or three hundred years.

King-grade soul sparks cannot exceed a thousand years.

Only Emperor-grade soul sparks can exceed a thousand years and live another life.

Emperor-grade soul sparks are basically over ten thousand years old.

Legendary-grade ones can exist for over a hundred thousand years.

"The second layer is also empty."

"The third layer, finally not empty."

Zhao Xing looked at the third layer of the Soul Tower; the first two layers were a pitch-black starry sky.

But on the third layer, it was as if stars were embedded on a curtain.

With a thought, Zhao Xing immediately knew that there were over a hundred Emperor-grade sparks inside.
