"Kill me? Let's see if you have the ability," Mu Can said with an indifferent smile.
"Yun Yi sister, do we have any chance of killing this monster? He seems even more terrifying than my second uncle."
Despite his outward demeanor, Mu Can felt concerned in his mind.
"Don't worry, little brat. Your sister will definitely kill him. Human World cannot suffer a loss," Purple Cloud stated assuredly.
Though she had died many years ago and only a remnant soul remained within the Reincarnation Pearl,
Purple Cloud was still that Supreme of the Heavenly Realm, with a sense of responsibility for the Human World that came from deep within her heart.
The Human World is the foundation of the Heavenly Realm, as most of its denizens ascended from the Human Realm.
"Then let's fight," the monster said hoarsely, having long noticed something odd about the young man before him.
To the monster, Mu Can was the only person present he could not see through.
When investigating Mu Can, it felt as if a layer of mysterious energy was blocking the investigation.
Aside from Mu Can, the strength of everyone present was clear at a glance; none posed any threat to him.
With a wave of his hand, a dark circle of light enveloped Mu Can and himself, forming a Barrier.
"Once I kill you, the rest will all be food," the monster said with a sneer, and his body suddenly soared into the air.
A powerful energy gathered between his hands and a ball of black fog condensed in front of him.
Within the fog, wailing souls of all ages could be seen, each with a different face.
The one commonality was the painful expression of these souls, wailing and writhing, intertwined with each other.
"Infinite Purgatory," the black fog slowly grew, obscuring the entire platform.
"You deserve to die," Purple Cloud exclaimed furiously upon witnessing this.
Each soul had been collected by a special Secret Technique and could not enter Reincarnation, doomed to struggle in agony within the black fog.
"Ha-ha, these souls were all collected for me by Wu Ming, such delicious souls. I really should thank him," the monster chuckled ominously.
Trapped in the midst of the black fog, Mu Can also found himself in peril.
Countless souls wailed in pain around Mu Can, incessantly striking his body.
"I can't let this go on, Yun Yi sister, find a way to destroy this black fog," Mu Can spoke to Purple Cloud, who was controlling his body.
"Alright, I'm thinking about how to liberate these souls," Purple Cloud said.
Looking at these suffering souls, Purple Cloud felt unbearable compassion.
Each soul had once been a living being, now imprisoned in the black fog, unable to escape.
They could only suffer torment forever.
"I have it, thankfully I remember a set of Taoist Cultivation Technique, perfect for liberating these lost souls," Purple Cloud finally relaxed her furrowed brows.
"Reincarnation Life Spell." Mu Can felt a loss of control over his senses and could no longer speak.
A complex chant came out from his mouth.
It turned into lotus blooms that were emitted with each breath, producing golden lotuses.
Upon contact with the black mist, the gold lotuses hissed.
It was like pouring a large amount of cold water into boiling hot oil, resulting in violent reactions.
The golden lotuses slowly disappeared, and the black fog also began to fade.
One by one, the souls were freed from the grip of the fog, no longer screaming in pain, and finally calmed down.
When all the fog was gone and all the souls were liberated, they surrounded Mu Can, joining hands and forming a circle.
"This is, Daoist Scripture? Are you someone from the Immortal World?" Wu Ming looked at Mu Can in shock, his huge eyes wide open.
I've been collecting souls for nearly three years to create such a small part of Infinite Purgatory.
Yet Mu Can resolved it so effortlessly, and not only that, all the souls have been liberated.
In fact, Purple Cloud had a simple way to deal with it, the easier method being to control the Fire King Cauldron to incinerate the black fog.
However, if it were done that way, these souls would not be able to find liberation.
"Heh, more insightful than I expected. It seems you're not just some nobody in the Demon World," Purple Cloud scornfully said through Mu Can's mouth.
Only creatures in the Demon World who are far from ordinary would know of the affairs of the Immortal World.
Therefore, this Demon World creature inhabiting Mu Can's body must not be so simple either.
"Trying to pry into my origins? Dream on. Even if you vanquish me, this is merely one of my avatars," Mu Can cackled.
"Do all of you from the Demon World like to play tricks and give foolish laughs?" Mu Can asked this question.
"Uh." Mu Can didn't expect to be asked such a question and was momentarily at a loss for words.
"Yun Yi, what are these souls doing right now?" Mu Can asked curiously, seeing that all the Soul Bodies surrounded him hand in hand.
"They are thanking you for saving them, but now they have nowhere to go. I do have a method," Purple Cloud said after some thought.
"What method?" Mu Can felt encountering Purple Cloud was the greatest fortune of his life.
No matter what difficulties he faced, as long as Purple Cloud was behind him, Mu Can felt the courage to face them.
"Reincarnation Pearl," Purple Cloud said.
"Reincarnation Pearl? What about it?" Mu Can asked in confusion. The Reincarnation Pearl was hidden inside his body.
"The Reincarnation Pearl has nine layers. The place where I am now is the first layer, the Soul Space. The location in the Soul Space where I reside is a forbidden area. Outside there is an even more vast space. How about we put all these Soul Bodies into the first layer? They could even slowly grow there, and it wouldn't be strange for them to eventually reshape a physical body," Purple Cloud explained.
"There are actually nine layers, and I've only seen the first one?" Mu Can asked in surprise.
"What did you think? Even I haven't figured out the Reincarnation Pearl until now. You're just a lucky kid, to be chosen by the Reincarnation Pearl. You should know, during that great battle back then, two of the Immortal Realm Supremes perished, and countless rulers were killed or wounded, yet none could make the Reincarnation Pearl choose them actively," Purple Cloud explained.
Even without seeing Purple Cloud's expression, Mu Can could feel Purple Cloud's disdain.
"Alright, am I being despised by you? What should I do?" Mu Can also felt speechless.
After all, he was rated as a genius. Why does he feel like he is no different from a roadside beggar in front of Purple Cloud?
In fact, Mu Can wasn't wrong; in Purple Cloud's eyes, he has seen countless geniuses like Mu Can.
But in the end, it's not even to say to become a Supreme, even to reach the level of a great leader is extremely rare.
"Connect your consciousness with mine, then just imagine opening the Reincarnation Pearl and sucking them in," Purple Cloud instructed.
"Okay."
As soon as he said it, Mu Can established a connection with Purple Cloud, and for the first time, he really connected to the Reincarnation Pearl hidden in his Sea of Consciousness.
It was also the first time Mu Can perceived the existence of the Reincarnation Pearl.
A cyan pearl quietly hung in the space above his Sea of Consciousness. If it weren't for the connection with Purple Cloud, Mu Can would not have been able to sense the Reincarnation Pearl's presence.
People outside only felt a breeze, and the black fog surrounding Mu Can dissipated into nothingness.
It seemed as if something had vanished in the blink of an eye.
The black Barrier outside was also shattered.
In a moment, only those with a slightly higher cultivation vaguely saw some nearly transparent small figures disappear along with the fog.
Nearly a thousand transparent Soul Bodies appeared inside the first layer of the Reincarnation Pearl.
The vast outer space of the first layer, the Controlled Space, suddenly came alive.
"Where did you hide them?" Not only did Mu Can's eyes widen, but his mouth also gaped open.
The souls he had painstakingly collected had disappeared without any perception.
