Chapter 919: Soul Device!

Law God Mirata heartily laughed, saying, “Assemble the clan’s guards! I want to take a personal look at this bizarre golden demon chrysalis you speak of!”

Demon chrysalis tamer Ipha was startled, asking with a frown, “Shouldn’t we inform the patriarch? Mobilizing the clan’s guards without permission is a great taboo.”

Mirata’s face turned dark, and he asked in a sinister tone, “The patriarch? Again with the patriarch! Do my words hold no weight around here?!”

*Zing~*

Ipha immediately broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly shook his head to deny this. Everyone in the clan knew that, while Mirata had a Law God’s cultivation, he lacked a Law God’s composure, and his mood could flip faster than one could flip a page! Everyone only expressed obedience to him on the surface, but nobody actually liked him deep down.

Mirata refused to let up, pointing at Ipha’s nose and saying, “What’s your status? You dared to defy my order? When the patriarch isn’t here, I am the patriarch! Hurry up and convey my orders! This gold demon chrysalis will be mine!”

Ipha hastily stood up and withdrew while inwardly cursing Mirata.

The Edusa Clan had two Law Gods. One was the patriarch, and the other was Mirata. The former ruled the entire clan, while the latter had just become a Law God and had only recently been granted authority over part of the clan.

The chance of crossing the Law God heavenly threshold was less than ten in one thousand, and there were numerous experts who had remained at peak Law Sage for one thousand years without breaking through. This was because this threshold was not just about strength; it was the threshold of life and death!

Upon becoming a Law God, one could step through the Gate of Life! With a Seed of Life, one would possess an inextinguishable body!

Mirata had not been very conspicuous among the other peak Law Sages of the clan. In terms of aptitude, martial strength, intelligence, or judgment, he did not stand out in any way, but he was the luckiest! With the right set of circumstances and coincidences, Mirata had succeeded in breaking through the Law God heavenly threshold after cultivating for only nine decades!

In a flash, he had gone from a sparrow to a phoenix, the second strongest in all of the Edusa Clan, and with the patriarch absent, he had control over the clan’s affairs!

In the past, Mirata had been bullied around by others in the clan, so he now wanted to use this chance to blow off some steam and prove his abilities to the patriarch. Thus, when the demon chrysalis tamer captain Ipha told him about Little Goldie’s existence, this new Law God was impatient enough to seize this chance for himself!

In his view, it would be a huge feat if he could get Little Goldie, which was similar to the legendary Supreme Golden Buddha! At that point, no one would dare to talk behind his back.

Normally, status in the big clans was connected to cultivation, and whoever was strong was king. There was naturally no problem with Mirata’s cultivation; alas, he had a terrible character and had never gotten along with anyone in the clan. In fact, he was almost universally disliked. Thus, many people were unwilling to accept him as the second-in-command based on the clan’s hierarchy. Still, it was true that Mirata was a Law God, and nobody could dispute that.

On the surface, they submitted to his status, but many of them plotted against him in the shadows. This left Mirata feeling very frustrated; eventually, he had become obsessed with getting some achievements under his belt!

…

On the outskirts of the Eye of the Csomos, Xia Fei and Radix found a rather strange cave. Radix was having a terrible headache, seemingly recalling some painful memories.

It was already absurd that a soul could be inserted into a microchip, and that this soul was seemingly suffering from amnesia, Xia Fei found this very hard to comprehend! The technology from beyond the Cosmic Gate was not just advanced; it was also very mysterious!

Xia Fei did not get it. Why did a warship also need an immortal soul? Was technology that used souls very common beyond the Cosmic Gate?

Moreover, that white point of light had also vanished without a trace. No matter how hard Xia Fei searched for it, he could not find it.

After some time, Radix stopped moaning, and his eyes grew brighter and brighter. “I think that I know why the insides of this cave are inexplicably larger. It must be Hosu! He’s not dead!”

Xia Fei was startled, asking, “Hosu? Who’s he?”

Radix excitedly said, “He’s that one passenger of the Ark back then, the one who singlehandedly sealed the Cosmic Gate!”

Xia Fei was stupefied. It appeared that bringing Radix with him on his travels had really helped the latter recovery his memories! Not only did he recognize the region where the Ark had exploded, he even recalled that mysterious passenger!

After a pause, Radix went on. “No wonder I found this cave so familiar. It turns out that this place used to be Lord Hosu’s dwelling! If my guess is correct, Hosu’s body dissolved after sealing the Cosmic Gate, but his soul, which remained, followed the trail here. When he discovered that the Ark had already been destroyed, he decided to set up a temporary residence here to rebuild his body!”

Xia Fei frowned. “This expert was able to rebuild his body? Did that mean he had a Seed of Life? No, Hosu came from outside the Cosmic Gate. Even if he had a Seed of Life, he should be reborn outside the Cosmic Gate.”

Radix shook his head. “My memories haven’t been completely restored, but there’s one thing I am sure of. The cave entrance is so narrow and the interior is so spacious because Hosu finished rebuilding his body!”

Pointing at the smooth walls, Radix excitedly said, “Look here! The stone walls are smoother than glass! Not even a laser would be able to make such clean cuts. These could only have been created by the pulses generated from the rebuilding of a body, and only Hosu could have generated these pulses!”

Once Xia Fei finished listening, he sat down and closed his eyes. There was too much information in his mind, and he needed to analyze each of Radix’s revelation carefully.

“A super-expert who managed to get reborn without using a Seed of Life? If he’s not dead, where would he be?” Xia Fei asked.

Radix shook his head and continued to think.

At this time, Xia Fei’s spatial compass beeped. He looked down and saw that the clan was calling him.

Opening the screen, he saw peak Law Sage Xia Ke looking at him, a somewhat hard-pressed look on his face.

“It’s been some time since we last met. Are you doing well?” Xia Ke asked.

“I’m doing well. How are things in the clan?”

“Nothing can go wrong with me and Xia Lianning keeping things in check, so you can relax. “At present, Fig Corporation is doing everything in its power to find out who stole Pinnacle, but from what we know, their investigation is mostly focusing on those clans who have past grudges against Fig. You aren’t a suspect yet.

“You should focus on the grand ancestor’s mission for now. No rush in returning to the God Race yet; you can wait till the storm calms down. Right, did Xia Guanghai deliver your things?” Xia Ke continued.

Xia Fei frowned. It was clear that Xia Ke had come to talk to him with some other motive in mind.

Smiling, Xia Fei replied, “I received them. Everything.”

“Oh,” Xia Ke nodded, asking, “have you been keeping up with your cultivation?”

Xia Fei lightly replied, “Of course. I’ve already reached peak Law Overlord, but getting past the Law Sage heavenly threshold will probably take some time.”

“That was quick!” Xia Ke had only casually asked this question, but he had received a shocking reply! Not even in his dreams would he have imagined that Xia Fei, who was in the last batch to enter the God Race, would already be making a charge at the Law Sage threshold!

The bespectacled Law Overlord Xia Tian, who had entered at the same time, had only recently gone up one rank, which left Xia Tian overjoyed. As for Xia Fei, he had already crazily rushed up to peak Law Overlord! This was an absurd speed! Even faster than a rocket!

Xia Fei shrugged and said, “If you have anything else, please speak directly. This kind of thing also puts me in a hard spot.”

Xia Ke awkwardly chuckled as he muttered, “I was just thinking about how to broach the topic, but you managed to see through me first. Yes, I contacted you to ask for your help on something. You know that Xia Geng and Xia Dian are carrying out a mission in Dark Space. You also know that the paths in Dark Space are very complicated. Without a demon chrysalis guiding the way, its very easy to get lost.”

After all that, it turned out that Xia Ke just wanted to borrow Little Goldie. Xia Fei was naturally willing to help, and there was little that needed to be said.

Xia Fei directly stated, “Since the clan needs Little Goldie, just have Xia Geng and Xia Dian come over. I’ll order Little Goldie to keep them safe, but if I do this, then I’ll have to get to that other place the grand ancestor wants me to travel through Dark Space much later.”

Xia Ke chuckled. “I already discussed this with the venerable ancestor, and he has no objections as long as you agree. You have The Gemini and also an unregistered compass. With these two, you should be able to go wherever you need to.”

…

Xia Geng and Xia Dian soon arrived to take away Little Goldie. Although the golden demon chrysalis was not happy to leave Xia Fei, it was also more willing to help him, so it reluctantly departed.

Xia Geng and Xia Dian were very curious on what Xia Fei was doing here, but as this was the grand ancestor’s mission, they did not ask too many questions, just like how Xia Fei would not ask what they were doing. The situation had been very tense as of late, and everyone in the Skywing Clan was busy.

Radix was still recollecting his memories. Coming to a familiar place and feeling this familiar energy could help him recover his memories, but the process was very time-consuming.

“Let’s go. I still need to head to the next place, which happens to be very far away from the Law Realm,” Xia Fei said.

Radix was somewhat disappointed. If he could choose, he would stay here so that he could continue recalling the past.

Just as Xia Fei was about to activate the spatial compass, Radix suddenly shouted, “I remember now! I really remember!”

Xia Fei hastily asked, “What did you remember?”

“You remember that little point of light that disappeared here? It’s a soul device!” said Radix in extreme excitement.

“A soul device?” Xia Fei could not help but frown. This was the first time he was hearing about this sort of thing.

“Right! A soul device! Since Hosu found where the Ark had exploded, he must’ve realized that I am still alive! That’s why he left the soul device here, to serve as a signal in the hopes that I would one day notice it! That little point of light led us all the way here not because it’s afraid but because it recognized me! It wanted to take us here!” Radix said.

Xia Fei asked in shock, “So you’re saying that that cave is hiding the soul device! It’s something that super-expert Hosu left for you?”

Radix excitedly replied, “It can’t be wrong! There’s definitely a soul device here! Hurry! Let’s turn this place upside down to find it!”
