Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

When Wen Yu opened his eyes again, all he saw was an endless starry sky.

Faceless had directly dragged the two of them to an undeveloped mainland bloc in District 9. At this moment, Wen Yu and Tang Haofei were lying on a protruding rock while Faceless hummed a tune leisurely beside them. Seeing Wen Yu awake, Faceless smiled at him.

”Resolved?”

”Half resolved.”

Indeed, only half of it was resolved; until Tang One regained control over his body, the issue was far from over.

Thinking of this, Wen Yu turned to look at Tang Haofei beside him. Old Tang was still asleep, not moving for quite some time. Wen Yu was puzzled and was about to enter the World of the Heart’s Image again to check Tang Haofei’s status, when unexpectedly, Old Tang’s body began to twitch as if he were being reanimated. After what seemed like half a day, Old Tang finally opened his eyes.

”It seems possible.”

Wen Yu contemplated—his solution was simple. As long as Tang Four was sealed and Tang One could regain control over the body, Wen Yu could periodically reinforce the seal if needed, then Old Tang would essentially return to normal.

A temporary fix, not a permanent cure.

However, the first words out of Tang Haofei’s mouth described the troubling consequences of the power!

”I am Tang Two, Tang One is finished... He has no way to regain control of the body!”

Wen Yu paused, then his face immediately darkened.

...

The World of the Heart’s Image was extremely unique; it was akin to Tang Haofei’s imagined space, also known as the Soul’s essence space, with all internal elements constructed from imagination—Tang Haofei’s every personality coexisted here.

On the surface, it seemed no different from the outside world, but nothing occurring inside the World of the Heart’s Image could affect reality—it was all fake...

Wen Yu overlooked a situation—ever since Tang Two appeared, and as Tang Two refreshed the Life and Death Battle Execution, Tang One’s influence had been diminishing, until in the end, were it not for Lin Haifeng’s intervention during Tang Haofei’s slumber, Tang One might never have woken up.

In other words, as the Life and Death Battle Execution took effect, Tang Haofei’s core personality was continuously weakened. No matter how normal Tang One seemed in the World of the Heart’s Image, if he couldn’t appear in the outside world, to everyone outside, what had Tang One become?

The past tense...

To outsiders, he was merely a disappeared person, a dead person...

Even without external interference, Tang One could not regain body dominance—he could only allow Tang Two to come out and communicate with Wen Yu!

The situation worsened... but it was still not the worst, as Tang Two gently moved his body, accompanied by the crackling of bones, the news got even worse...

”It’s over... all over... my power is completely gone...”

Tang Two rose tremblingly like a candle struggling in the wind, even the simple act of using his arms to lift his body and then standing straight required considerable effort from him.

He shakily lunged towards Wen Yu, staggering after just a couple of steps. Had Wen Yu not quickly supported him, Tang Two might have really fallen drastically...

As his eyes slowly turned red, Wen Yu could even see the glitter of tears at Tang Two’s eye corners; he trembled as he tried to wipe the tears, yet the mere act of raising his hand was already extremely difficult.

Seeing this, Wen Yu could only sigh softly.

”Don’t worry, there will be a solution.”

...

Creation Energy invaded Tang Haofei’s brain, yet Tang Haofei’s Soul appearance, from all aspects, looked intact—Soul strength was equivalent to physical fitness, and there were no injuries to the Soul, making the so-called consequence of power seem nonexistent.

Creation Energy was ineffective, at least Creation Energy couldn’t solve Tang Haofei’s physical problems...

The next moment, the Dream Come True Ability was already activated, Wen Yu pondered for a while without knowing what wish to make, ultimately just said ”healing.”

However, as the Dream Becomes Reality Skill System came into effect, Wen Yu paid no price—Dream Come True’s feedback indicated Tang Haofei had no injuries whatsoever.

Then, Wen Yu made the wish ”resolve the consequence of power,” but the Dream Becomes Reality Skill System did not react—consequence of power was merely a vague idea, a skill couldn’t discern what it was.

”Then... what about resolving the side effect of the Life and Death Battle Execution?”

Wen Yu thought this, then wished for it, yet the result was disappointing—no reaction!

Perhaps the Dream Becomes Reality Skill System determined there were no side effects, or maybe Wen Yu’s body couldn’t withstand the aftermath of resolving the Life and Death Battle Execution’s side effects.

Wen Yu didn’t know which the current situation was, but after exhausting all means, he discovered he was truly powerless against the consequences of power.

”So, it can only be like this...”

Tang Two’s face was full of bitterness. He sighed as if accepting his fate. Seeing this, Wen Yu just took a cigarette from the space ring, lit it, and put it in Tang Haofei’s mouth.

In this state, for Tang Haofei, even living independently became questionable...

After a while, when one cigarette was finished, Wen Yu finally spoke.

”I’ll place you in the tiered battleground’s main city, and instruct Mountain Kui and the others to take care of you.”

This seemed to provide Tang Haofei with a simple yet meager exit—everything needing other people’s care, for Old Tang, this reality was truly too harsh!

And Tang Two remained silent, before speaking again after a pause.

”I guess if I want to release Tang Four, you’d definitely stop us, right?”

This voice was calm, cold, Tang Two’s face like dead ashes, under the massive blow, he seemed to have thought of an impossible option...

Release Tang Four! As long as Tang Four was out, Tang Haofei was still Tang Haofei! He was the unparalleled one that even Wen Yu couldn’t oppose as long as he had enough development space!

But Wen Yu silently shook his head—in Tang Haofei’s view, this method might work, however, to Wen Yu, this was absolutely impossible!

The name of the strongest seemed merely nominal, yet for Wen Yu and Tang Haofei now, it had become substantial—given Tang Four’s state at the time, Wen Yu could already guess that if he couldn’t defeat Tang Haofei, the world would face an unprecedented monster.

Actually, were it not for considering the past relationship with Tang Haofei, Wen Yu would have already ended Tang Haofei with one slap by now.
