Chapter 466: Is this the End!?
He only had at most 2 or three batches left and would be sufficient only for two more insane repetitious attacks towards the black remnant soul.
Until now he had been able to stop that thing from counter-attacking since he had kept him under wraps but it seemed like that thing was getting better at its reaction speed.
The miasma it released now was becoming larger and larger in quantity and quality, as it was even trying to corrode his Nirvana flames.
While it didn't seem like it would succeed in corroding them, it certainly had some kind of insulating effect over them and was pushing them more and more trying to make a gap from which it could escape.
Tianlong Yun had yet to understand how, or why, but it seemed like his Nirvana flames, and the entrapment was kind of restricting it from acting.
This made the current situation even more dangerous though, because if that thing was able to escape his grab, and his Nirvana flames, then the situation would be truly terrifying.
Going one week straight, exhausting his Soul Power, and replenishing it almost every 6 hours was a really taxing thing on Tianlong Yun's mental health.
Right now, he looked like nothing more than an animal who was only acting on instincts in order to continue living.
The only truth on his mind at the moment was that if he didn't take care of his enemy before he totally lost control of his body, then he was as good as gone.
All the signs pointed towards his loss though, as not only was he so close to exhausting everything he had, but even his opponent seemed to be getting stronger.
No matter how one looked at it, and no matter how optimist that guy was, Tianlong Yun's death seemed to be set in stone.
Only a miracle would help him in this situation, and it didn't seem like it could happen, as a matter of fact, the opposite happened.
He was hit by a big misfortune, as the black remnant soul didn't take a long time to restore as before, and it released a massive amount of miasma, nothing like whatever it had released until now.
The amount was crazy, it was at least 3 or 4 times the amount it had used to defend itself in the last attack!
But how was that even possible, just how much of a cheat thing could this remnant soul be? Just what kind of fu*cked up situation was this!?
It was already more than enough that a miracle wasn't happening, then things needed to take a turn for worse with this misfortune.
Just as he thought that things couldn't go any worse than they had, the Heaven's had decided to play a prank on him and show that it could!
If until now he still held some slight hope that he might overturn the situation, and escape alive from whatever all this was, that hope was slowly being extinguished.
The good thing was that the miasma didn't seem to want to attack him, but was trying all it could to push open the lock of his Nirvana flames.
It didn't seem to possess much intelligence, because as Tianlong Yun's Soul Avatar was now, even the weakest attack would send him in dire straits.
Yet that wasn't good news either, as he could feel that he wouldn't be able to last for long. As a matter of fact, he could feel that his grab was slowly slipping away.
It was like trying to hold the sweaty hand of a man falling from a high building at the edge of it, the hand was so sweaty that the hold was easily slipping away.
He couldn't allow that to happen, no matter what. The person whose life was in line, was he himself, after all, if he let that happen he would be erased from existence.
But what could he do?! The situation was even worse than he had thought about, his only choice was to refresh his Soul Power and redirect as much as he could in instigating the Nirvana flames.
The normal burst of power wouldn't make the cut though, he needed more, even more, Soul Power that his lake could hold.
It wasn't impossible actually, if he took the last two batches of pills remaining he would be able to hold on for a little longer, but once the Soul Power wore off he was certain to lose.
So, it wasn't much of a solution to him, it felt more like just postponing his disappearance time, the same thing he had been doing until now.
Something that clearly hadn't worked at all until now, as a matter of fact, it seemed to have just added more to his pain and suffering.
For this whole week, he hadn't been able to achieve anything, all he had done seemed meaningless!
He had just continuously punched towards a regenerating wall, and in the process only hurting his hand, as the wall seemed to not suffer in the least.
The only thing that was wearing off was his own regeneration and strength, and right now he was left with only one more chance, and that was only defense.
This whole situation was nothing more hopeless for Tianlong Yun, but still, his Soul Avatar, his being, his existence didn't allow him to give up here.
He wasn't the person who gave up, even though he might know he was going towards sure death, there was no way he was giving up, as he would walk ahead killing death if he needed to.
This case wasn't different, he wouldn't give up no matter what happened, he would continue and do everything he could, no matter what.
Not to mention that he had people waiting up for him, there were people he couldn't abandon, and someone whose life was tied to his.
Even if he gave up on himself, there were people he couldn't give up from. So, he had to do everything he could, no matter what.
With that decision taken, there was nothing stopping him from continuing to hope, as he immediately consumed the last two batches of the pills.
Immediately he could feel his nearly drained lake of Soul Power revitalize, and the Soul Power sourcing and filling it quickly.
In no time it had already filled the lake to its normal state, but that wasn't the end of it, as more and more Soul Power was being gathered in there.
The lake was too small to hold that much, so the Soul Power started to get out of the boundaries and flood the nearby areas, as everything was flooded on its path.
Just like a ruthless flood that knows no bush, and no vegetables the same thing was happening with his Soul Power, that it was destroying everything on its path, causing pain, suffer, torture.
His Soul Avatar was in ecstasy right now, as it was being overcharged with Soul Power, but the scenery around him was changing for the worse.
Certainly, this didn't bode well with his conscience sea, as it was starting to change, and get affected by the sudden burst, but there was nothing he could do about it now.
He could only try his best to continue forward with his decision, as his Nirvana flames became brighter and brighter!
Suddenly the Nirvana flames that he was releasing seemed to be getting a power-up, and their burning and restricting power seemed to increase as well.
That powerful miasma that was trying to insulate them, and pushes them away until now, not only wasn't able to reach its goal, but it was in fact starting to burn away.
The tables had turned once again, even though this was going to be for a short time, Tianlong Yun thought that he would be able to burn the miasma away, and try to land one last attack.
Certainly, his thoughts were good and encouraging to him, but probably were just too optimistic, because the miasma didn't seem to burn that easily!
Not only that, but that black remnant soul was producing even more miasma at the same time, making up for the part that was burning up.
Even though his Nirvana flames seemed to be burning more and more of that black miasma, the black remnant soul seemed to be able to keep up with it.
In fact, the truth was that the black remnant soul was on the losing side, as the burnt-up miasma surpassed the regenerated one slightly.
But the difference was so small that it didn't seem like it would be possible to produce any result! Furthermore, that difference was slowly approaching zero.
Pretty soon the difference would not only be inexistent but there was a high chance that it would start going against him.
If that happened then it would truly be game over for him! Not that he would be able to do something about it even if it didn't.
Right now his Soul Power was still in overcapacity, so he was able to keep up the current Nirvana flames, but in a short time, his Soul Power would be totally gone.
Then he would have truly hit rock bottom, and lost the fight! Which clearly meant his disappearance from existence!
As if everything that happened until now wasn't already shitty enough, the black remnant soul seemed to have adapted to his new strength, and had closed the gap!
Damn! Just how much of a cheat existence could this motherfu*cker be!? Was this going to be his end?
Was he just going to die inside his own conscience sea!? Without having his revenge!? Without fulfilling his promises!?
How pathetic! It seemed like even this second chance of his was nothing more than a wasted chance! This time because he tried to bite more than he could chew!
