Chapter 476: Total Order & Nirvana Flames
Tianlong Yun this time didn't act immediately, as the more he acted through brute force only the more he would make his disciples and followers have thoughts about rebelling.
It was true that he believed these guys were smart enough to understand his actions, but still, with the loyalty they had shown, he thought that they deserved an answer.
Tianlong Yun was exactly that kind of guy, he would return everything back to the originator 10 times of the original act.
He would return the goodwill of others 10 times stronger, even for the tiniest act of kindness towards him.
But at the same time, he would use the same 10 times stronger option to deal with those that dared to even think about doing something evil to him or his 'precious' people.
The guys who had rebelled had clearly surpassed any limit he might have in that regard, but right now he was thinking about the loyal disciples too.
Furthermore, the Shadow Hall members were supposed to be his dead loyal servants, people selected out of thousands in order to help him in his tasks.
Not every genius would enter the Shadow Hall, but every member of Shadow Hall was a once-in-a-century genius.
People that had been personally guided in their cultivation, and training from the original 16 Shadows, in order to make them a sharp weapon, and a strong shield for Tianlong Yun.
It was a pity that so many treasures and resources were wasted on these guys, but this was just a calculated risk for Tianlong Yun.
No matter how good one cleaned its own yard, there were bound to be a few stalks of bad grass or harmful bugs in there.
He could only hope to be able to take care of these harmful grassroots swiftly and quickly in order to not let them pollute the environment around them.
Still, this didn't mean that he would enter a battle of wits either, as he immediately said in a low but heavy voice,
"All traitors step forward and confess!"
No matter who heard this would think that he wasn't well in the head, after all, who would confess his own crimes when they perfectly knew what lied ahead if they did.
That was nothing more than wishful thinking in the eyes of a normal cultivator, but a strange thing happened immediately after.
4 disciples took a step forward, even though they looked truly unwilling when they did so, they didn't seem able to stop themselves either.
No matter how much they tried, they couldn't disobey Tianlong Yun's words. Their own conscience and will seemed to be unable to resist the power of his words.
It was truly strange, this was the first time that they had felt something like this, and had never been prepared or taught about something like this either.
Just how much of an abnormal monster was this Patriarch of theirs, how was he able to do something like this!?
He seemed to be ordering their own Soul Avatars, and there was no way that those Soul Avatars could disobey the order.
It was truly strange, but things were destined to get worse the next moment, as the 4 of them started one by one to reveal their plans and schemes of the rebellion.
They didn't leave any detail behind, as they said everything loud and clear for the others to hear, including the way how they managed to make those guys doubt amongst themselves.
Their retell made the Shadow Hall members that had been protecting them feel really stupid, and ashamed of what they did, as for the first time in their lives they heard a word of appreciation from their Patriarch,
"You guys shouldn't feel bad about being misguided, after all, you were trusting your intimate friends, and family, while you keep your loyalty to me and the Clan.
This is just a little test of maturity for you, and I am sure that pretty soon you will be able to get through this and become more powerful, and mature.
I am looking forward to you guys surpassing your Masters'!"
With that said, it was useless to let this situation continue for longer, as he immediately took the four members, and disappeared from the place.
Since almost any barrier and protective seal had been destroyed inside the Old Pouch, there was big chaos everywhere that he needed to take care of.
The moment he had awakened, the Old Pouch seemed to have regained a share of its strength, and power, as the light started getting stronger once again.
Not only that, but even the energy, the protective barriers, the seals seemed to be restored once again, and so did Tianlong Yun's control over the whole Old Pouch.
To understand why all these had happened, and why Tianlong Yun was acting only now we need to return a bit back in time
When Tianlong Yun found the weak spot of his enemy and made his final attack, he had been injured really badly, as not much later that injury killed his Soul Avatar.
In fact, in order to be clearer about this, in that last hopeless and crazy attack, both sides suffered heavy injuries.
The remnant soul's injury was heavier than that of Tianlong Yun by only a whisker though, as Tianlong Yun managed to put the core of the remnant soul under the nirvana flames and purify it.
As truth had it, the remnant soul was nothing more than a core, with no apparent form, and all the black form around it was formed from miasma.
It was a kind of deceptive body, that the core couldn't throw away in any case as it would reveal its true form.
One could think of it as a slime, the outer form was just meaningless, everything was taken care of, and happened in its core.
The same thing was valuable even for this remnant soul! For that reason, as long as Tianlong Yun took care of the core, the whole remnant soul disappeared into nothingness.
What was left behind was that only core who seemed to still possess some important thing inside it, too bad that Tianlong Yun was unable to see what it was.
He guessed that this would be the end of his second life chance, as right now there was nothing he could do about the hole inside his Soul Avatar's core.
The only thing he wished and hoped in the last straits of his Soul was hope for Tianlong Xia to not follow him in death, and for his woman to live a good life, without being bullied.
He was certainly unhappy to have been unable to take his revenge, and reached the peak but what could he do now about it!?
There was no other path in front of him besides the path that sent him to oblivion, and he couldn't turn back either.
He still hadn't accepted his loss, as he still thought that something might happen at the last moment but nothing was happening.
No matter how much he tried to find a way out of this, he was unable to. He kept hoping and thinking until the last of his moments, as his Soul Avatar lost all color, and was slowly disintegrating.
It seemed like this would be the end of the new primogenitor of the Seraph bloodline, truly a pathetic ending.
There was one weird thing though, his Soul avatar was disintegrating that was true, but it seemed like all the dust particles were being collected in the same place.
Not only that but the moment this happened the Nirvana flames seemed to get restless. Like someone had thrown gasoline at them and was blowing air at the same time.
The more that Tianlong Yun's soul avatar was getting disintegrated in there the more did the Nirvana flames grow and become more furious.
When finally, the last dust Soul particle fell, and Tianlong Yun's soul avatar could be finally called disintegrated, the Nirvana flames grew bigger exponentially and covered his whole conscience sea.
The once quiet and calm sea view turned into a mixed view of the blue ocean color and the boiling hot magma like Nirvana flames.
Tianlong Yun's Soul dust particles didn't escape the calamity either, as they started burning like some kind of gunpowder.
In just an instant Tianlong Yun's conscience sea was totally covered in the Nirvana flames, and all once could see was flames and Soul power entangling together.
The same view continued for more than a week inside Tianlong Yun's conscience sea, but to everyone outside, it looked like his Conscience Sea had been destroyed, and he was dead.
Only after a week, the Nirvana flames started receding, and retreating, clearing the view! Whoever saw this scene they would think that this was the potential of the Nirvana flames and now Tianlong Yun was officially gone.
But as the flames receded and retreated, they uncovered some kind of a black spot in the middle of everything.
At first, the little thing seemed to be wrapped into a fetus-like position curled forwards, holding tightly his knees with his arms.
But the more one approached, the more lifelike did that little thing look like, and the more it resembled to the already disappeared Tianlong Yun's Soul Avatar.
What was going on!? How could that be!? Who would even believe it!? Tianlong Yun wouldn't believe it himself either!
Still, at the moment, that little thing seemed unmoving, like nothing would ever wake him up. Even if a bomb exploded on his ears perhaps it would continue to sleep peacefully.
But that wasn't all, as the same Nirvana flames, the same fire had also burned and refined the core that Tianlong Yun had managed to take out of the remnant soul, and now that 'material' was free around him
