Zhang Yan looked at the humanoid Anti-Soul Beast and asked with confuse, "Can you hold on this shape?"
He was curious about its strength, because it was quite weak now, but extremely powerful soul energy was needed to shape like humans.
It answered with head down, "My master, though weak, my soul still had the power to maintain such shape. But without a body, I can't fully perform my strength."
He nodded. After all, as an ancient monster, it had been invincible, so he absolutely believed its ability in the soul.
"How can I reshape your body?" He asked in concern. After all, it possessed the cultivation of Devil King State, the highest level in the Renhuang Realm and if he could help it find a body to restore to its perfect state, he would be companied with a super bodyguard, which was a strong guarantee for his future times.
"Thank you for your concern, my master. But my body has been completely dissipated hundreds of thousands of years ago and my soul is swallowed little by little by the Stone to Suppress Souls. I forced my soul energy out of the stone through some secret skill to devour souls of human warriors and support myself for such a long time. And now I can only devour souls to repair my soul. Before it fully recovered, I can't restore my body." It replied.
"Doesn't it work to inherit a body of a human warrior or a devil monster?"
It shook head, "It does! But it is so hurtful. Even a good-conditioned soul will be greatly and permanently injured after inheriting a body from others, let alone my weak soul. And in this way, due to the new body's physical limit, my strength will never be recovered to my extreme state, so it is unnecessary."
He nodded once again, "Well, I got it. But will your present shape bring about troubles? After all, you are now shaped of fogs and what if you are seen by others?"
"No worries, my master." It mobilized its soul energy again to form a middle-aged person's face, which enabled it to look like a dark-skin human.
He did not expect it to be so powerful in soul. Satisfied with its new look, he could bring it around him as a helper.
He looked at the naked beast, took out a large robe from his ring and hand it to the beast, "Put on this cloth, or the others would feel strange about us!"
"From then on, I will call you Anti-Soul and you call me sir, okay?" He said faintly.
It immediately bowed, "Yes, sir."
Some footsteps came from outside the door at this time, followed with a shout, "Zhang Yan, are you?"
He knew it was Yan Luo and walked over to open the door. Yan Luo and Meng Yao were standing still, staring at Zhang Yan like gazing a prisoner. Zhang Yan touched his head and asked with a smile, "What are you going to do? What's the matter? Go in!" He invited them into the room.
They saw the Anti-Soul Beast wearing a large black robe at once and turned to Zhang Yan in puzzle. Zhang Yan introduced, "This is a friend of mine who had an appointment to meet here with me, called Anti-Soul."
Yan Luo and Meng Yao greeted it and asked Zhang Yan, "What did you do in the North Mountain?"
"What happened?" He was confused.
"What happened?!" Yan Luo screamed loudly, "Tell us what did your kid do?! Why did all the black fog disappear? Many people have gone to the North Mountain to investigate, even including our Lord. But he seems to not figure out reason, only saying that it will not be recovered to the past."
