Boom!
The scarlet mist fiercely collided with the Sword Qi Shield, dispersing instantly!
Then, it gathered into a human shape in another corner of the Sea of Consciousness.
With its sneaky plan exposed and unable to approach Shen Chongxu’s divine soul, the blood-colored figure clearly became a bit agitated.
Red light flickered rapidly over its body, and then it suddenly transformed into a rapidly spinning spike, rushing upward toward the Sea of Consciousness.
"Trying to escape?"
Seeing this, Shen Yuan instantly transformed into a beam of white light and rushed upward.
Bang!
A massive fist smashed into the rotating spike formed by the blood-colored figure, directly breaking it into a mass of scarlet mist.
But clearly, after taking Shen Yuan’s blow, the scarlet mist showed significant changes in both color and amount.
Experiencing Shen Yuan’s terrifying strength, the scarlet mist dared not gather again, splitting into dozens of strands scrambling around in Shen Chongxu’s Sea of Consciousness.
Seeing this, Shen Yuan steadied his form and waved his sleeve forcefully.
Suddenly, a red and white vortex appeared in front of him.
Accompanied by the emergence of the red and white vortex, the strands of scarlet mist running chaotically in Shen Chongxu’s Sea of Consciousness were sucked into the vortex one by one.
The moment the last bit of scarlet mist disappeared into the red and white vortex, Shen Yuan faintly heard a scream and indistinct words.
However, the voice was too feeble, the tone incredibly strange, and Shen Yuan couldn’t hear what was said in its last moments.
After thoroughly clearing away this remnant of will, he meticulously searched Shen Chongxu’s Sea of Consciousness for a long time, ensuring there were no hidden threats, before returning to his normal form, approaching Shen Chongxu’s divine soul. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"Chongxu."
Calling out, Shen Yuan released a pure and gentle stream of divine soul power.
Stimulated by this power, the divine soul that had fallen into a coma suddenly radiated waves of light.
Before long, Shen Chongxu’s divine soul awakened.
"Grandfather?"
Looking at the figure before him, exuding a gentle glow and smiling with folded hands, Shen Chongxu called out in surprise and doubt.
"Child, it’s all right now."
Shen Yuan spoke with a gentle smile.
Looking around, Shen Chongxu exclaimed in surprise, "This... is my Sea of Consciousness!?"
"Grandfather, you..."
His divine soul had been asleep, leaving him with no memory of the brief battle that just took place.
He was curious how Grandfather Shen Yuan appeared in his Sea of Consciousness.
"You and I are bound by blood, so naturally, your grandfather has a way to project a trace of divine sense into your Sea of Consciousness."
"Chongxu, the furnace you obtained is an extraordinary item, and you must use it cautiously in the future."
With a change in tone, Shen Yuan spoke solemnly.
The Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace was evidently crafted from the skull of that mysterious strong figure.
Although the last remnant of will from that mysterious figure was destroyed, this object is still entangled with the forces behind the giant mountain and that mysterious strong figure.
"Grandfather, I..."
At this moment, Shen Chongxu also realized his previous mistake.
Upon learning the true function of the Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace, he had assumed his firm will could resist the influence of this demon artifact.
Unbeknownst to him, he overestimated himself in the end.
He nearly ended up possessed by the remnant will within the Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace.
Fortunately, his grandfather intervened just in time.
"No matter."
Shen Yuan waved his hand with a smile.
"The energy from this fragment of your grandfather’s divine sense is nearly depleted and won’t last much longer."
"You have your own ideas, and it’s not my place to say more."
"Chongxu, I hope you remember the identity of the Shen Family. Yunshui City will always be your home."
"Whenever you feel like going back, you can always visit..."
As he spoke, Shen Yuan’s form gradually turned illusory and eventually completely vanished from his Sea of Consciousness.
"Grandfather!"
Shen Chongxu called out hurriedly, but Shen Yuan’s trace of divine sense had already completely dissipated, leaving no response.
Standing silently in a daze for a while, Shen Chongxu gradually withdrew his consciousness back to his body.
Alongside the bed in the sleeping quarters.
The blood cocoon surrounding his body slowly disappeared after Shen Yuan eradicated the remnant will of that mysterious strong figure.
When Shen Chongxu opened his eyes, Wushi Qianrou, who had been watching over him, suddenly leapt up in joy!
"Master!"
With warmth in his embrace, Shen Chongxu initially wanted to push her away but ultimately didn’t.
He gently patted Wushi Qianrou’s back and said in a deep voice, "It’s all right now."
Tears filled Wushi Qianrou’s eyes as she quickly stepped back and apologized, "Forgive me, Master, I... I was too excited."
Shen Chongxu stood, stretched his muscles, and felt that his current strength had reached the Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm.
His previous state stemmed not only from an internal longing for power but also from the influence of that remnant will inside the Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace.
Now that the remnant will was eradicated by his grandfather, his mind was no longer restless as before.
"Did you know there was a remnant will hidden within the Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace?"
Regaining his composure, Shen Chongxu suddenly turned to ask Wushi Qianrou.
Wushi Qianrou was the Artifact Spirit of the Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace and his Blood Demon Avatar, refined with his own Soul Seed and Essence Blood.
If not for this, Shen Chongxu’s first action upon awakening would have been to erase her.
"Remaining will?"
Wushi Qianrou looked puzzled and said, "I didn’t know... Master."
"Over the years, the Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace has devoured countless souls, leaving behind too many residual wills and grievances."
"I..."
Seeing that Wushi Qianrou didn’t seem to be lying, Shen Chongxu understood that she might truly be unaware of the remnant will’s existence.
