Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Wen Yu and Bai stood at the edge of the passage, mouth agape, staring dumbfoundedly at the magnificent scene at the end of the passage.

In front of them was an extremely vast chasm, so immense that even with Wen Yu’s eyesight, he couldn’t see the bottom. Surrounding this chasm were endless cliffs, dotted with numerous pits of various sizes resembling a beehive. Wen Yu and his group stood within one of these ”bee eyes,” while in the center of the chasm, there was something like a giant whirlpool...

It seemed like a celestial nebula whirlpool; though not as large as a real nebula, it was still majestic and grand!

Massive Origin Energy surged incessantly within the chasm, agitating, clashing, mingling into a whole, finally transforming into dozens of mighty arms!

These mighty arms stirred endlessly, continuously spilling vast Origin Energy into the voids within the surrounding cliffs. This was also the source of the Origin Energy leakage!

Within the arms was a huge ball of light emitting white light, entirely condensed from Origin Energy. The concentration of Origin Energy here far surpassed any heart of the world Wen Yu had seen before. Squeezed and liquefied at the center of the light mass, they formed a massive lake, each stirring of the arms causing waves, sending echoes of turbulent waves resounding.

Even from an unknown distance away, Wen Yu could hear the deafening roar of that Lake of Origin!

”This should be it...”

The sound at his ear was too immense, so Wen Yu resorted to Soul sound transmission to express his conclusion to Bai—Wen Yu found it hard to imagine, if this wasn’t the Origin Pool, what incredible capacity of Origin Energy the real Origin Pool might have.

Hearing Wen Yu’s voice, a gleam flashed in Bai’s eyes as he nodded lightly, slowly levitating.

”Wait for me...”

With just those brief words, Bai immediately flew towards the Origin Pool. With the destination reached, it meant Bai’s plan was missing just one last step!

However, a sudden change occurred!

Before Bai could fly far, a startling whistling sound erupted from other bee eyes around them. This sound merged together and, coupled with the special terrain, produced an effect akin to a Psychic Attack.

Of course, this effect could not affect Wen Yu and Bai, but the significance it bore was extraordinary. At this moment, Wen Yu’s face grew grim, while Bai’s expression changed drastically!

Soon, the source of the sound burst out from the bee eyes—a boundless number of Sentinels!

Each pit held about a thousand Sentinels, and the number of pits was beyond Wen Yu’s desire to count. The multiplication of such numbers yielded a value that might exceed even Wen Yu’s Soul Strength!

Quantity changed to quality...

They rushed out of the passage, as though manipulated by some entity. The Sentinels promptly assembled mid-air—the execution power and speed of machines allowed it all to be completed in less than a second, erecting an unending wall in front of Wen Yu and Bai...

The length—seemingly boundless... the height... likewise, they faithfully performed the task of guarding this place, sealing all paths forward for Wen Yu and Bai, but these Sentinel Type III were not just for defense...

The next second, the Sentinels trembled, emitting a violent buzzing sound, drowning out even the waves of the Lake of Origin, and in the next moment, they moved...

The overwhelming attack arrived in an instant, shredding Wen Yu’s body to pieces in a blink of an eye. Any defense capabilities became laughable before the Sentinels. Subsequently, the Photosynthetic Spirit Motifs activated—but in the next instant, a second wave of attack followed closely!

If not for the Ultra Mortal Combat, Blood and Flesh Badge, and Ancient Dragon’s Wrath’s triple protective effect, Wen Yu would have faced annihilation. However, the number of Wen Yu’s Photosynthetic Spirit Motifs was beyond measure, making him able to withstand for a while.

Unlike Wen Yu, Bai...

After consuming Ye Nan, Bai possessed the concept of an undying body, but this seemingly powerful ability had its weaknesses—the Sentinels indeed couldn’t penetrate Bai’s defenses, but the force from high-speed impacts still acted on Bai’s body.

Though unhurt, the knockback effect existed—maybe a dozen or a few dozen Sentinels didn’t generate strong knockback individually, but when they formed a wall and pressed over...

Bai was like a piece of iron struck by a high-speed car. Although the massive wall did not harm Bai in any way, the sweeping strike still sent Bai flying far!

Like hitting a baseball...

”Damn!”

Wen Yu could even hear Bai cursing.

...

Sentinels continuously maneuvered through Wen Yu’s body. On one hand, Wen Yu frequently activated the Dream become Reality Skill System to slow time and capture the Sentinels—but it was merely a drop in the bucket. Given their sheer number, Wen Yu felt he could catch them till the world ended, and even with the time flow slowed, it was impossible for Wen Yu to dodge the Sentinel attacks in such dense formations. On the other hand, Wen Yu silently pondered a solution.

The power of the Sentinels was undeniable, their physical attack abilities brought to an extreme, but they had weaknesses—after all, they weren’t human, and certain attributes stood in plain sight. After a brief thought, Wen Yu promptly found a solution...

Elemental transformation—as long as he completely transformed his body into elements, physical attacks would be entirely immune. Unless lifting the elemental state, Sentinel attacks would be entirely nullified...

Wen Yu thought and acted accordingly. A flash of Black Light, and his physical form transformed into darkness in an instant. However, Wen Yu was still wrong...

The Sentinels instantly sliced through the darkness into which Wen Yu had transformed; the next second, Wen Yu felt a multitude of pain perceptions coursing through. The darkness that he turned into was continuously shredded by the Sentinels, eventually vanishing to nothing, startling him to quickly revert from the elemental state!

There was a problem with their material—this was one aspect. On the other hand, it stemmed from the extreme sharpness attribute—it could penetrate any defense, including Energy Defense. In other words, though Sentinels could seemingly only cause physical attacks, it did not mean they couldn’t harm elementalized enemies.

Seeing this, Wen Yu instead smiled: ”Then let’s try this...”

The next second, Wen Yu’s figure vanished from the spot.

Void Traversing initiated.

Not in the same world, let’s see how you chase me now!

And as expected, these Sentinels completely lost track of Wen Yu, turning instead to another direction.
