Chapter 3671: Immortal Emperor Wuya

At this moment, at the very bottom of a forbidden ground, an Immortal Emperors soul was chained up to a stone pillar. Strange black glyphs flickered within the soul.

Miserable howls rang out from the soul, filled with despairing pain.

The strange black glyphs inside the soul was the Imprint of Soul Incineration and Stabilisation. This curse would make the soul face unimaginable pain and torture constantly.

At this moment, Jian Chen slowly appeared near the stone pillar. He stared at the soul chained up against the pillar in a daze as his heart trembled violently.

He had already found out about the true ident.i.ty of the soul.

He was one of the past great elders of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Immortal Emperor Wuya.

Immortal Emperor Wuya was a figure from the same age as Immortal Emperor Taihang. He was one of the only three Immortal Emperors of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens back then.

Among the three Immortal Emperors of the past, Immortal Emperor Taihang had already perished on the Grand Sovereign Heaven. All of the disciples from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens who left with him had met a bad end.

Right now, in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, he met the second person among the three Immortal Emperors, Wuya!

From elder Nong, Jian Chen learnt that Immortal Emperor Wuya had already perished several hundred thousand years ago, yet his soul was here right now, which meant that Immortal Emperor Wuya had already been tortured for several hundred thousand years.

Looking at how much pain Immortal Emperor Wuya was in, Jian Chen immediately felt sorrow, together with surging killing intent towards the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

Senior Wuya! Jian Chen tried calling for him, but Immortal Emperor Wuyas soul had already been tortured to a point of madness. He had lost his mind, so he could not hear anything from Jian Chen at all.

That only made Jian Chens heart ache even more.

To the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens back then, both Immortal Emperor Taihang and Immortal Emperor Wuya were prestigious seniors, yet he currently suffered such inhumane torture, which left Jian Chen filled with pain.

Source of Life, are you able to a.s.sist him in any way, or do you have any method to alleviate senior Wuyas pain?

Jian Chen secretly communicated with the Source of Life.

My power can only heal the body. Its not effective on the soul.

Surprisingly, the Source of Life did not kick up a fuss this time and instead answered calmly.

Jian Chen stared at the chains on Immortal Emperor Wuyas soul. After a close examination, he confirmed that the chains did not harm Immortal Emperor Wuya. He raised his hand and cut through the chains with a few strands of sword Qi.

However, with the chains severed, Immortal Emperor Wuyas soul had only been freed. It did not alleviate any of the pain he suffered.

Jian Chen looked through his possessions before taking out a golden fruit from the s.p.a.ce in his soul. It was covered in a thin layer of Xuanhuang Qi.

This was a mid grade G.o.d Tier heavenly resource. Although it mainly benefited the body, it could also benefit the soul to a certain degree.

Without any reluctance, Jian Chen directly crushed the priceless heavenly resource that possessed Xuanhuang Qi in his hand.

Immediately, a heavy fragrance wafted out. Even just a whiff of it was enough to make him feel like his cultivation had progressed drastically.

Jian Chen contained the fragrance with a spatial barrier before refining the fruit in his hand into juice. Afterwards, he turned the juice into a medicinal cloud of mist before channelling it into Immortal Emperor Wuyas soul carefully.

As the essence of the heavenly resource entered his soul, it seemed to have a replenis.h.i.+ng effect. It became slightly more consolidated.

At this moment, his howls gradually weakened until they vanished completely.

That did not mean that Immortal Emperor Wuyas pain had vanished. He had just endured it forcefully with his great willpower, so he stopped howling hysterically.

Senior Wuya! Jian Chen called out gently again.

W-who are you

This time, Jian Chen finally received a response. Immortal Emperor Wuya let out a mental pulse that was extremely feeble.

As he did that, his soul twisted violently. The face he conjured blurred, clearly enduring pain that Jian Chen could not comprehend.

I am a disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, said Jian Chen.

The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens right? How is the sect right now

The sect is well right now. We already have an Immortal Exalt watching over us. Jian Chen knew he could not go into the details, so he gave a simple introduction of the situation.

Immortal Exalt Immortal Emperor Wuyas soul only said those two words before falling silent for quite a while.

Senior, how do I save you? How do I remove the Imprint of Soul Incineration and stabilisation? Jian Chen continued to ask.

Cant be removed and cant be saved. If you really are a disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, then then then kill me

K-k-kill me

Kill me q-quick, kill me

Each word seemed to take all of Immortal Emperor Wuyas strength to utter, requiring extremely great willpower. When he said the final word, he could not help but howl again. His soul spasmed violently.

If it were not for the Imprint of Soul Incineration and Stabilisations consolidation, the inhumane agony probably would have ripped his feeble soul apart a long time ago.

Jian Chen did not understand the Imprint of Soul Incincernation and Stabilisation, so he immediately asked the Source of Life, the Primeval Divine Hall, and the twin swords.

As it turned out, neither the Source of Life nor the Primeval Divine Hall understood this technique. They could only see that it was quite profound and created by a peak expert. They knew nothing else.

Master, you better just kill him,

the sword spirits said.

When he heard that, Jian Chens heart immediately sank.

Dont tell me Im really unable to remove the Imprint of Soul Incineration and Consolidation?

You cant, as this imprint results in certain death. The imprint has fused with his soul. The soul can only survive when the imprint exists, but once the imprint vanishes, the soul will perish as well.

As a result, even if you manage to remove the Imprint of Soul Incineration and Consolidation, the soul will disperse as soon as you achieve that.

Its said that this imprint was created by a Grand Exalt of the Daemons World. It contains the truths of the ways, so its no regular curse.

Jian Chen immediately fell silent after hearing the sword spirits explanation. He stared blankly at Immortal Emperor Wuya who endured the excruciating pain as his heart weighed heavily.

He had finally found one of the original members of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens after so much difficulty, yet they were in a state where death was guaranteed. The deep sense of powerlessness was torturous to Jian Chen.

Kill him?

How could he bring himself to do that?

Argh! Argh! Argh K-kill me, kill me quick, kill me

I-if you really a-are a disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, t-t-then I beg you. Quick, kill me

Kill me kill me set me free. Please I beg you Im begging you

Immortal Emperor Wuyas soul twisted violently as if it took him all of his strength to say those broken words. He was in agony, basically wis.h.i.+ng for death.
