Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 497: Chapter 440: Soulsplitter Hasn’t Been Doing Well Lately

The divided soul hasn’t been feeling great lately, ever since encountering Han Yu in Minzhou City, everything seems to be off.

There’s a constant heavy sensation in his heart, which might not be unusual for ordinary cultivators.

But for someone who has reached his level, or can no longer be considered human, things are different.

Transcendence may be seen as crossing the threshold into non-human endeavors, especially for cultivators seated at the divine pedestal; stating that they have utterly shed their mortal bodies is fair.

Thus, any peculiarities happening to people like him are never trivial or insignificant incidents, he dares not underestimate them in any way.

However, even after employing various methods, he was unable to identify the problem within himself, which made the whole thing even more strange.

Incapable of finding any clue, he’d temporarily set the matter aside, yet over time, various minor errors kept occurring, forgetting or outright losing things on a whim.

But that’s not all.

”Damn it, met dirty Daoist seven times in half a month, truly preposterous.”

The divided soul was gnashing his teeth; within the last half month, he tried sneaking back into the Central Continent but repeatedly encountered the Daoist.

The Eastern Sea Domain is vast; heaven knows how one could achieve these repeated coincidences.

Running into them isn’t the worst, the worst part is after each encounter, he ends up fleeing in disgrace.

Seven escapes within half a month, and pressed against by a junior no less, how could he not be utterly consumed by rage?

The final battle of the past few days was fought near Sea Stone City’s coastal area. This time, he played cunningly, fleeing only to return afterward.

That fool wouldn’t have expected him to slip back into Central Continent from here.

The divided soul thought darkly.

Miles away, Liu Zongyuan, the Daoist, was quite wearied as well.

Lately, Corpse Refining Lineage activities have been excessively frequent, otherwise, he wouldn’t keep running into the divided soul.

He’s certain this divided soul isn’t up to anything good; he’s been coming in and out of the Central Continent often, seven encounters so far, sly comings and goings who knows how many times.

Little did he know, the divided soul hadn’t managed even once; every attempt was thwarted in the Eastern Sea Domain.

Even though he won the fight days ago, his consumption wasn’t light either.

The opponent lost due to fear of death, while he won for fighting desperately, hence his consumption was always greater.

”I’m no sea patrol; just need to ensure these fools don’t make a move in Central Continent.”

He’s really not keen on pursuit anymore; the vastness makes searching hard, enough time may allow sneaky infiltration instead.

Better to rest near Sea Stone City, should the divided soul dare to reveal in Central Continent, he can surely charge forth to kill him.

”Not going anymore.”

After summoning the green leaf, Liu Zongyuan lays sprawling atop it.

...

Everyone returned to the Government Office; Chicken Feather Gall saw Han Yu and Ling Wuce as if seeing family, almost moved to tears.

Heavens knows what kind of horrid days he’s had recently, on edge, unable to sleep well at all.

Afraid to sleep and awake to find Corpse Refining Lineage has stormed in and never wake again.

”Yoo-yoo...”

Wood Spirit snorted seeing Chicken Feather Gall’s demeanor, with a strange cry.

”The coward is afraid on his own, kept babbling when I went to the seaside.”

Qing Wan laughingly translated Wood Spirit’s words.

Ling Wuce didn’t blame him, a Divine Gaze cultivator facing Realm of Transcendence is powerless enough, let alone against someone like divided soul.

Even if he himself is on this side, facing divided soul genuinely is heart-palpitating.

”You have quite the nerve, aren’t you aware they’re interested in Five Elements Spirit Body too?”

Han Yu joked, Fire Spirit desires to stay as far from divided soul as possible while Wood Spirit even sneaks to watch fights.

”Yoo-yoo-yoo!”

A dismissive expression crossed Wood Spirit’s deer face.

”Let him come, let’s see how he takes me away.”

Qing Wan playfully mimicked Wood Spirit’s tone.

Han Yu grinned and rolled his eyes, yet another spirit body unscarred by beatings, or perhaps forgetting pain once healed.

A few in Transcendence Realm move mountains and seas; divided soul carrying Wood Spirit’s body wouldn’t be difficult.

Han Yu currently easily carries Wood Spirit’s body, divided soul wouldn’t be much worse.

”Do you think divided soul is targeting Wood Spirit?”

Ling Wuce frowned; Wood Spirit is precious, can’t be lost.

”Who cares what he’s after; seeing him, first teach him a lesson, repay the grudges.”

Powerless during last beating, barely scratched him.

Han Yu never faced such embarrassment, especially near capture as spoils.

Not only him desires to hit divided soul, Artifact Spirit too roars to chop him.

His greatest secrets are Ping and Artifact Spirit; divided soul seeks his secrets, it endangers both.

Han Yu guessed Ping’s eagerness to advance himself likely due to intense pressure from divided soul.

”Doesn’t he love poking people with fingers? Break them next time!”

Artifact Spirit defiantly shouted, even offered generous reward.

”Kill him, I’ll reward you.”

Han Yu instantly gained interest; dealing with divided soul, gaining double rewards, perfect, wonderful!

”What reward?”

Artifact Spirit held hands behind, spoke eloquently, ”The large fortune you owe doesn’t...”

No repayment?

His joy overflowed; heavens know how much owed till now; fearful of calculating, for headaches.

”No interest then.”

Artifact Spirit gasped announcing, Han Yu’s face darkened, only interest waived?

He truly misunderstood Artifact Spirit, treasure Qi Fortune like life roots; wishful thinking of debt forgiveness.

He was speechless, uncertain of response, inwardly prepared to die with debt; large fortune likely never fully repaid!

...

The village where Wood Spirit once lived had undergone thorough changes, due to Han Yu and Celestial City Peak Eight Monsters’ fierce battles, even Mo Yang once attracted Tribulation Thunder using pills here.

Located hardly dozens of miles from Sea Stone City, divided soul expressionlessly steps on waves like flat ground, vanishingly shifting nearly four miles per stride, swiftly reaching shore.

This time finally no Daoist obstructed, divided soul rarely sighed relief.

”No foot soldiers make tasks ultimately troublesome.”

He expressionlessly sighed, Impermanence Mansion was entirely ruined, old Judge dead, new recruited Judge vanished without trace.

Why is it so bizarre; how many men fell beneath one person’s hand.

Currently, divided soul owns no functional puppets, forcing him to handle matters personally, every affair he must undertake himself.

Yet Liu Zongyuan’s ox nose persistently watching, any move struggles with ease, slightest commotion stirs him into pursuit.

”Two of the Five Elements Spirit Body manifested, naturally brought back.”

”Han Yu’s mysteries surely useful to Holy Sect, also brought back.”

”Righteous and evil fools perish in numbers, items ought to be taken.”

His return entailed numerous tasks, thus headache-inducing.

”Central Continent still needs subordinates working; brain-filled ones, no further deaths.”

Unaware his underlings, besides Ox and Judge, all peculiarly collided with Han Yu’s endeavors, just as he intends managing nearby Wood Spirit, always coincidentally clashing.

...

”Must be a special fate!”

Ling Wuce currently gazes at Han Yu, eyes shining, swiftly rubbing hands, earnestly eyeballing Han Yu, face brimming with yearning.

”Give it to me! I want it!”
