Royal Dragon and Phoenix transmigrate to Earth

Chapter 465: Hopeless Situation

He regretted doing that the next moment though, as it tasted like nothing he had tried before, and not in a good way.

It was at least 20 times worse than those level 2 'herb roots' he had tried the last time. It was more than just disgusting!

He could feel his body act in reflex to stop that thing from passing his throat, as he needed to surpass his reflex, and then force the level 3 'herb root' down his throat.

That just made things worse for him, but there was nothing else he could do about it, this thing was supposed to be really precious and necessary for him.

He had to control the urge he had to throw it up as soon as he swallowed it down, but he managed to control himself, and concentrate on what would happen inside his conscience sea.

There was no way it was going to be easy, as even the level 2 'herb roots' were really dangerous with the remnant soul pieces, not to mention that this level 3 'herb root' had gained sentience.

For that reason, he was staying on his guard, as he could feel that his sea of conscience was getting more and more disturbed as the power-up from the 'herb root' was coming.

He could feel that the lake of Soul Power he had formed was getting larger and larger as it had a plentiful new source supplying it.

The new source was truly something as it was slowly enlarging his lake more than 1/10 at the moment and it didn't seem like it would stop soon.

Seeing this happen, Tianlong Yun wanted to use his Soul Avatar, and try to make the most out of this opportunity, but there was also the possibility of that remnant soul attacking.

He couldn't let his guard down no matter what, otherwise he might end up regretting his greed. But at the same time, leaving such an opportunity slip away would be a true pity.

It wasn't that he wouldn't get a good power-up, it was just that if he didn't concentrate well on processing the Soul Power coming to him, most of it would go to waste.

The water was falling from the waterfall, and the container was down its path, but if he didn't place its container to get the best out of it, then most of the water would be just passing by.

This was his current situation, and he wasn't able to change his situation due to the fear of that remnant soul that might be out there waiting for him to lower his guard down.

But no matter how much he waited there didn't seem to be any sign of that remnant soul, and he didn't know for how long would the source continue.

He couldn't lose this chance no matter what, so he decided to make use of this opportunity he had, as his Soul Avatar sat in a lotus position concentrating on managing the Soul Power coming his way.

In that position, his guard was down, and in case of a surprise attack, he wouldn't have been able to protect himself.

Not long after he sat in the lotus position, his conscience sea seemed to have been more than perturbed for a moment, and something appeared in there.

But the next moment everything returned to normal, and everything seemed to be the same, with the difference of some other entity being inside his conscience sea right now.

That entity didn't attack him as soon as it appeared in there, in fact only looked at him for a while to make sure he was truly unable to perceive him in there, and then made way towards another section.

If one thought that this new entity didn't have any negative or dangerous thoughts against Tianlong Yun, they would be just fooling themselves.

The section this guy headed towards was Tianlong Yun's negative thoughts, feelings, and emotions area. The section where all his worst nightmares, and memories were preserved.

This adversary was even worse than the level 2 'herb root' because at least the level 2 'herb root' had only used a tiny bit of itself to go towards this section.

While this new guy, waited for the perfect moment when Tianlong Yun didn't expect it in the least his appearance and could do nothing about it, as he went directly to 'eat' what made him stronger.

By the time that Tianlong Yun was finished with the Soul Power he was provided with, he would have already grown big enough and would have corrupted Tianlong Yun enough to win the battle.

It was a perfect plan, no matter how one looked at it, Tianlong Yun had totally fallen for the trap, and if he didn't act soon enough he would most certainly end up disappearing.

His body would still be there, but the essence wouldn't be the same anymore, it would be the same thing as when he took over the previous owner of the body he had right now.

After getting assured that Tianlong Yun was completely concentrated on making the most of this opportunity, the new entity, the remnant soul didn't look back as it made its way towards its target.

But it hadn't even gone for half of the distance when it felt the temperature in the surroundings get hotter, and then some powerful flames surround it.

It was completely unexpected, as it had no time to react in the least, as the flames pulled him back, and then a flaming punch came towards it.

The punch seemed to be holding all the power its owner could possess at this moment, together with those dangerous flames that seemed to be able to burn him out of existence.

But before the punch could even make contact with the remnant soul, some kind of black miasma started spreading out of it, to block the fist.

Even though it looked nothing more than a waste effort, the moment the punch clashed with the black miasma a powerful torrent of energy, and momentum spread from the impact.

Tianlong Yun's conscience at the point immediately got blasted into a storm, as a big hole appeared on the sea, and right after the water poured down once again.

In this process, the Nirvana flames didn't seem to be affected, but they served to clean the area of any residue of the impact.

The black miasma had also disappeared at that moment, revealing once again that black remnant soul entity, completely unaffected by the attack.

It seemed like a lie or an illusion, but there was no change in the black remnant soul. Not even a scratch, or a small part missing, nothing.

The happy and gloating Tianlong Yun's Soul Avatar of a moment ago now had a serious and solemn expression.

This whole thing was weird, extremely weird. How could something like this be possible? He knew it wasn't going to be easy, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult either.

The Soul Punch he had just thrown it truly contained the most he could offer, his maximal output, but even that didn't seem to work.

If that was the case, then just how was he supposed to fight against this thing, wasn't his fate sealed with this?

Still, even though this whole situation seemed hopeless he couldn't give up, if he did it would be game over for him, and he would disappear from existence.

Surely, he wasn't one of those guys who gave up quickly, so he didn't lose time and sent another punch of the same power towards the enemy.

This time he mixed even more of his Nirvana flames to the attack! According to his previous experiments, his Nirvana flames were really effective against these remnant souls.

Once again, the same thing happened, he sent a punch covered in flames towards the black remnant soul, bigger impact, more rain, and still no effect on the enemy.

Well perhaps besides the fact that the thing seemed to have a slightly paler black color to it for a moment, but that seemed like nothing more than a joke considering the attack.

Just what the hell was wrong with this thing, how it was possible that his attacks looked like nothing more than street gimmicks?

This shouldn't have been possible, was he that weak!? Or just was this thing that strong!? No matter what it was, Tianlong Yun was in a deep shitty situation right now.

The only good thing about this situation was that this thing wasn't attacking back, in fact, it looked like it didn't have the power to attack back whenever Tianlong Yun attacked him.

It was either that or just he didn't feel like attacking a weaker form and wanted to play with him until it died of exhaustion.

No matter what Tianlong Yun couldn't give up, if he did then everything would be over for him, as long as he was alive he had a chance, he might find a way to solve this situation.

With these thoughts in mind, he started punching once again, as with each punch he used more and more of his potential with the Nirvana flames, and the maximum of his Soul Power.

At first, it was 3 punches set, then 5 punches, then 7, and it continued like that as he arrived at a moment when he wasn't counting more the punches, but the time he went one.

At first 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, slowly the time was going up and up, but there was no big difference, just the black color became paler and paler, nothing more.

It was a good thing that he had a lot of 'Heart Cleansing' pills, and other supportive pills, together with the source of the Soul Power working for him, otherwise he would have already died of exhaustion.

This time he had been punching this thing for 1 hour and 40 minutes straight, but the results didn't seem to change, the situation he was in seemed hopeless as even the pills he had prepared seemed to be close to exhaustion
