Chapter 327: Vow Poison

Boom! With a muffled thud, followed immediately by a scream, the scene before Chen Fan shifted abruptly, and his vision returned once again to Amir's Sea of Consciousness.

At this moment, he held the Bell Body of the Soul Suppressing Bell high in his hands, Diana stood one meter away from him, and Amir was collapsed on the ground, wailing in agony.

Amir's Soul was now covered in cracks; he had already suffered heavy damage!

"How did you see through it? How could you possibly attack your father?!" Amir looked at him in disbelief.

He had believed this illusion to be seamless, guiding Chen Fan's inner heart back to the very moment Chen Fan most wanted to return to in his memories.

He had integrated himself into it, becoming Chen Fu, and tried to make Chen Fan smash the man he had woven into the scene to death.

If Chen Fan had smashed down, Diana would certainly have suffered a severely damaged Soul or died.

But he never imagined that at the final moment, Chen Fan would actually turn and smash toward his father.

Chen Fan's voice was low: "My father was always kind; when I was about to smash someone, Father would definitely have stopped me, but he didn't at that time, so that could not have been my father."

Chen Fan said no more, instead raising the Bell Body of the Soul Suppressing Bell in his hands and smashing it down fiercely toward Amir.

Amir's Soul was already heavily injured and now could not dodge at all; with a bang, he was struck squarely by Chen Fan.

Amir immediately clutched his head and begged for mercy, but Chen Fan remained unmoved, the Bell Body of the Soul Suppressing Bell falling repeatedly until it completely shattered Amir's Soul.

Diana broke free from the illusion at the same time Chen Fan regained his senses; her eyes were red, clearly indicating that the illusion she had experienced just now was also extraordinary.

At this time, Chen Fan patted her shoulder and said: "Let's go, Amir is dead, his Sea of Consciousness is about to collapse."

Diana nodded, and the two of them's Souls instantly returned to their respective bodies.

The two did not speak, each lowering their heads in deep thought; Chen Fan was thinking that the vendetta for his parents needed to be put on the agenda.

Regarding his parents' deaths, he had a total of four enemies: one was Ye Beichen of Kyoto University, one was Ji Yuan of the South China Military Region, and the other two were his second uncle and second aunt.

He was not yet a match for Ye Beichen and Ji Yuan, but he would soon have the strength to challenge them one-on-one.

As for his second uncle and second aunt, Chen Fan had already investigated their whereabouts back in Qingcheng City; perhaps worried that their crimes would be exposed, the two had moved to the United States shortly after his parents died.

"I'll have to take a trip to the United States once things here are settled," Chen Fan thought to himself.

And just at this moment, Diana's exclamation of surprise rang out.

"Chen Fan, quickly feel if there is anything unusual about your Soul."

Chen Fan was puzzled, but he still calmed his heart and felt carefully; however, the next moment, his expression changed drastically.

A wave of chill was faintly coming from his Soul, as if he were in a world of ice and snow.

"Do you also have that freezing sensation?" Diana asked Chen Fan.

"I do." Chen Fan nodded, his expression grim.

Diana's face turned pale all at once: "We must have been struck by a Soul Poison."

"Soul Poison?" Chen Fan repeated, uncomprehending.

"In India, there is a secret technique called the Vow Poison; when a Soul dies, it produces an invisible toxin that erodes the enemy's Soul. I suspect the two of us have been struck by this poison."

"Can the Vow Poison be cured?" Chen Fan immediately became tense.

"It cannot be cured." Diana's expression was extremely ugly: "Once infected with this poison, within thirty days, the Soul will be completely frozen, and at that time, we will die."

"Damn it!" Chen Fan couldn't help but curse under his breath; he had just recovered from his Soul injuries during this trip to the Lingze Secret Realm, and now he had been struck by a Soul Poison again.

Diana, at his side, had already begun to weep.

"Chen Fan, we are finished; in a month, we are going to die."

Chen Fan tried hard to keep himself calm and comforted her: "As long as it is a poison, there must be an antidote. We still have thirty days; we will definitely be able to find a way to cure it. Moreover, this secret technique comes from India; perhaps India has a way to cure it."

Diana finally calmed down: "After we go back, I will have the Emperor negotiate with India; as long as they have a way to cure it, they will definitely give it to us."

"Right, don't be discouraged yet; there is always a way when you reach the mountain, not to mention we still have thirty days."

After persuading Diana, Chen Fan was also secretly calculating; after returning, he would seek help from his master as soon as possible.

After calming his mood, Chen Fan walked to Amir's corpse, unfastened his backpack, and opened it to find that there were actually dozens of Soul Spirit Fruits inside.

"It seems this guy picked all the ripe Soul Spirit Fruits nearby," Chen Fan muttered to himself, then looked toward the large patches of Soul Spirit Fruit trees in the surroundings.

Sure enough, the remaining Soul Spirit Fruits were not yet ripe.

Chen Fan suggested to Diana: "There are still a few days left before the Lingze Secret Realm opens; let's wait here for the remaining Soul Spirit Fruits to ripen."

"Okay." Diana nodded, but she was listless; she had lost interest in the Soul Spirit Fruits now.

Over the next few days, Chen Fan practiced the second form of the Xingyi Thunder God Spear here frantically.

Of course, during his rest, Chen Fan would also go to the vicinity to hunt Strange Beasts; after all, those were Killing Points, one of the means for him to become stronger.

In five days, Chen Fan harvested twenty million Killing Points, and he was extremely satisfied.

However, what surprised Chen Fan was that the remaining hundreds of Soul Spirit Fruits had all stopped growing, and not a single one ripened.

Diana guessed that because the Soul Suppressing Bell had been taken away, this place had lost a certain power, and therefore the Soul Spirit Fruits no longer grew.

Chen Fan believed this implicitly; after all, the Soul Spirit Fruits here were created by the Soul Suppressing Bell itself. Now that this Secret Realm had lost the Soul Suppressing Bell, he feared there would be no more Soul Spirit Fruits produced in the future.

"This Secret Realm is ruined," Chen Fan couldn't help but sigh.

But he still picked all the unripe Soul Spirit Fruits from the trees.

In any case, his Space Ring was large enough, and they might be useful when he brought them back.

Additionally, Chen Fan salvaged the corpse of the evil flood dragon from the bottom of the pool; this kind of Strange Beast containing a Dragon Bloodline was definitely a great tonic for Qingyou.

Time flew by, and finally, the day for the Lingze Secret Realm to open arrived.

At the exit, the place was already crowded with people; having experienced fifteen days of slaughter, everyone was already physically and mentally exhausted.

Among the crowd, some were high-spirited, clearly having collected Soul Spirit Fruits, but more were dejected.

When Chen Fan and Diana appeared here, the original noise became deathly silent.

The crowd automatically cleared a path; some were trembling, and some were quietly retreating.

Facing a god of slaughter like Chen Fan, no one dared to say a word.

"Chen Fan, your reputation is likely ruined; after today, the whole world will know your great name," Diana stood beside Chen Fan and couldn't help but tease.

Chen Fan did not care, and instead quickly found Ye Tingxuan and the others.

Seeing that he was safe and sound, they all breathed a sigh of relief one after another.

On Diana's side, the few people from Tsarist Russia also gathered around; seeing Diana so close to Chen Fan, the four of them could not help but show puzzled expressions.

Diana looked at Chen Fan and said, "I will notify you the moment I have news on my end, and you do the same."

Chen Fan naturally knew what she meant and nodded slightly.

"I'm off." Diana waved her hand at Chen Fan, smiled brightly at him, and left with the remaining people from Tsarist Russia.

Chen Fan and the others, however, still needed to wait for the remaining Great Xia Ability Users.
