Chapter 1688: Chapter 177: Yuan Magnetic Stone Gate
The Time-Space Soul-locking Tower was gradually controlled by Lei Yan King.
After gaining control, he would be able to suppress malevolent thoughts.
In this situation, the outburst of malevolent thoughts would no longer appear suddenly as before, no longer so abruptly that it forced Lei Yan King to commit unimaginable acts.
This was a significant progress for Lei Yan King.
Lei Yan King was well aware of his growth journey, understanding that such rapid progress in a short time would inevitably come with corresponding drawbacks.
Lei Yan King had pondered these drawbacks when he first entered Thunder Flame Breaking Path Mountain.
Now, he could bear the consequences of these drawbacks. However, if malevolent thoughts erupted, causing excessive carnage, it would ultimately be unforgivable for Lei Yan King.
He never considered himself a great Saint, yet he has no desire to wantonly slaughter the innocent.
The presence of malevolent thoughts would only disregard all this, ignoring any life.
The ability to suppress malevolent thoughts undoubtedly laid a foundation for Lei Yan King’s transformation.
The Time-Space Soul-locking Tower contained very profound rules, which Lei Yan King could partially comprehend and realize, yet this comprehension was only superficial.
The Tao contained within the Time-Space Soul-locking Tower was unfathomably deep.
This situation even surpassed Lei Yan King’s belief in his own bloodline and mastery of his Realm, making him realize for the first time that there were things in Heaven and Earth that were very ’difficult’.
Lei Yan King instinctively knew the name of the Time-Space Soul-locking Tower, feeling that he had profound memories of it, but could not awaken the source of these ’profound memories’.
Even after suppressing malevolent thoughts, Lei Yan King always felt that he hadn’t found himself.
This feeling had been instinctive since birth, growing stronger over time, yet never finding a solution.
The Time-Space Soul-locking Tower let Lei Yan King perceive a brand new opportunity.
Within this opportunity, Lei Yan King felt that his Awakening was intricately linked to the Time-Space Soul-locking Tower.
...
"Buzz—"
Suddenly, within the Time-Space Soul-locking Tower appeared patches of purple mist, rising and enveloping Lei Yan King.
Lei Yan King’s Realm, after absorbing and refining the purple mist, finally surpassed the previous stage of Earth Spirit Sky Sword Venerable, reaching the second stage of Sword Venerate—Heavenly Spirit Sword Venerate.
After crossing a layer of Realm, Lei Yan King’s combat power naturally became even more invincible.
At the moment of breakthrough, a storm raged in the Soul Sea at his brow, vaguely presenting a unique mirage-like scene.
It was a massive ancient warship, piled high with corpses.
Among the mountain of bones was an enormously huge skull, with hollow eyes.
Yet, from those hollow eyes emanated two very peculiar halos.
Intangible and colorless, yet containing profoundly penetrating meaning.
At that moment, Lei Yan King seemed to see a very eerie vision.
A beautiful girl in a red gown, with a face bearing a seven-part resemblance to Mu Qingyan, but even more shocking and unsettling than Mu Qingyan.
At the instant he saw this figure, Lei Yan King felt his heart was violently shaken, and in that moment, it ached intensely.
After this figure appeared, a young man in purple also appeared, standing next to the girl in the red dress, his figure was very blurry, but Lei Yan King suddenly felt that the youth was very important, seemingly having an extremely mysterious connection with him.
However, after these two figures appeared, black light suddenly filled the heavens, enveloping the Soul Sea.
In an instant, the red-clad girl and the purple-clad youth in the scene were devoured by the black light, and their bodies shattered and disintegrated.
At the moment of that burst, Lei Yan King clearly saw a very complex and peculiar look in their eyes.
That look was like a sharp sword, piercing deeply into Lei Yan King’s spirit.
Lei Yan King shuddered, sensing that he had lost extremely important memories, memories that were incredibly crucial to him!
Even if he could not remain alive, he must not lose such memories!
"Ah—"
Lei Yan King suddenly shouted, his voice a bit heart-wrenching, evidently in great pain.
However, after this sound emerged, it seemed to break a certain balance, and the realm that previously lingered suddenly broke through, fully entering the Heavenly Spirit Sword Venerate’s realm.
The previously abnormal situation in the Soul Sea also completely vanished.
As if all this were just an illusion.
But in reality, was this an illusion? Even if Lei Yan King wished to deceive himself into believing it was an illusion, he knew that ultimately, it was not an illusion but reality.
The significance embedded in such reality contained far too much.
The transformation of the Realm gradually calmed Lei Yan King, and no further illusions appeared.
Everything seemed to be the interference of a ’Heart Demon’.
But in fact, Lei Yan King felt it was all related to himself.
