Chapter 545: Death Fusion! Sovereign Peak!
Chapter 545: Death Fusion! Sovereign Peak!
"Conditions? What conditions?" Charles looked at him.
Su Ping didn't hesitate for a moment:
"I know that since you were able to come here from the Eagle Kingdom using the Soul Mark, you must have a deep understanding of the situation within the Heavenly Tomb and possess a certain degree of control.
Therefore, before I enter the Death Sword, I will release all the others from what you call the Soul Furnace, and at the same time, send my body and that of the Origami Man."
Charles was not surprised at all, but smiled and said:
"Su Ping, after entering the Death Sword, when you merge with the power and partial soul consciousness of the Lord God of the Dead, at that time, you will also be able to control these through the Death Sword and the residual power of the Death God. You won't need me to do much."
Su Ping shook his head directly:
"No, I don't know how long the fusion process will take. If it takes too long, I'm afraid they won't be able to bear it! I can't take that risk.
Your Excellency Charles, if you can do it, we can continue. If not, then forget it."
Charles frowned, not because the condition was troublesome:
"Su Ping, your character is too concerned about these inferior people. Many times, you have to give to receive. What's the point of worrying about their lives?"
But he soon smiled:
"However, it's not a big deal. Once you personally experience it and truly understand the power of this force, you'll get it. Compared to these, those souls that grow to be fuel are like garlic sprouts, one after another.
But those fuels aside, it's better to preserve your Companion Beast and your body."
As he spoke, the flame in Charles' forehead instantly burned again.
The raging ashen flame caused the entire space to seem to shake.
Indeed, Su Ping's guess was correct.
If Charles truly merged with the soul of the Death God as he said, his control over the Heavenly Tomb space would likely far exceed Su Ping's expectations.
He could indeed activate some abilities and influence the interior of the space.
...
In the dim space, the endless ash fog continued to swirl.
In this eternal land of death, within the Soul Furnace, numerous figures surrounded the person in the center.
Su Ping remained seated, his eyes hollow and empty.
The other members of the Heavenly Tomb Force summoned their Companion Beasts, surrounding him.
Perhaps sensing the number of living beings, an extremely large number of undead appeared in the endless ash fog.
A hint of worry flashed in Li Feng's eyes, along with a sense of cold, rigid feeling that he himself was aware of.
Even he, his soul was already severely polluted.
Not to mention the others present at this moment.
Take Zhu Linxin at the beginning; at this point, forget about helping. If he hadn't been tied up tightly, and even before, he had already made Zhu Linxin put his Companion Beast into the Beast Taming Space, he might have already reached the black stone tablet at this moment,
Becoming one of the black sword spirits.
But as time passed, this situation didn't just happen to Zhu Linxin. Some of the Heavenly Tomb members were also affected.
They became sluggish, occasionally glancing at the black tombstone, which made Li Feng anxious.
However, what worried Li Feng even more was Su Ping's departure.
He had prepared for their lives, as a member of the legion and a battalion executing such a terrifying task, he had already prepared for death.
But Su Ping wasn't! Su Ping was not only Su Instructor's son but also the future of the entire Dragon Kingdom. He was the most talented and promising Breeder in the Dragon Kingdom, a genius even admired by Lord Holy Dragon.
If such an existence were to die here, he might not be able to let go even in death.
Thinking of this, Li Feng glanced at Su Ping's body, already feeling some regret. He truly regretted letting Su Ping leave.
In such a dangerous situation, no matter what, they should have been the ones to experiment first.
But now, it was too late to say anything.
All he could do was continue to wait in this dark, cold, and deathly space.
Wait forever.
Until, eventually, even he couldn't control it and arrived at the dark tombstone, becoming a remnant soul and completely leaving.
Perhaps the only good news was that in this short time, a few other members of the Heavenly Tomb Force, who were lucky, found their way here through the opened-up passages, and reunited with them.
In the midst of their preparations, a peculiar black vortex slowly emerged within the eerie gray mist that shrouded the land. The sudden appearance of the vortex caught everyone off guard, and in the blink of an eye, it hovered directly above Su Ping and the origami figure in his arms before vanishing.
Before Li Feng and the others could react, an indescribable soul shock surged through their minds.
The next moment, the black tombstone transformed into a massive spatial vortex, sucking in all the members of the Heavenly Tomb Force and disappearing without a trace.
Ten seconds later, Li Feng and the others regained consciousness, looking around in bewilderment.
A towering tombstone, as tall as a small mountain, stood behind them.
In front of the tombstone, a small cat stared with wide eyes, gazing at Li Feng and the others who had returned after a day's absence. It took a moment for the cat to react, but soon its orange-yellow irises locked onto them.
"Where's Su Ping?"
...
As Su Ping emerged from the spatial vortex, he first returned the Thousand One Sword Soul to its body before speaking, "So you really can do it?"
Charles smiled, "The Heavenly Tomb is the Death God's converted death rule, a secret realm left behind, and after merging with the Death God's soul mark, it naturally has some control! Su Ping, don't be curious, soon you'll be able to master this power too, immediately, I promise, come now!"
Charles fixed his gaze on Su Ping, awaiting his next move. He had no intention of defending himself, seemingly certain that Su Ping wouldn't make any foolish decisions.
In his eyes, Su Ping had no reason to refuse.
Wasn't that right? Indeed, it seemed to be the case.
Su Ping's soul body flickered slightly, his gaze fixed on the Shadow Blade before him.
This thing seemed always ready to devour his soul.
Nonetheless, Su Ping stepped forward.
He had never intended to transform himself into something neither human nor ghost.
However, through his conversation with Charles, Su Ping realized he might not need to be like Charles. So, under Charles' approving gaze, Su Ping's soul, guided by the grayish-white Heavenly Tomb mark or Death God mark on his brow, finally reached the Death Sword.
Then, his soul body merged once more with the grayish-white flame of the Death God mark, slowly seeping into the entirely black sword body.
Su Ping's consciousness became extremely hazy.
Despite the indescribable chill of death permeating his entire being, causing his soul to tremble involuntarily, he saw no concrete material world or dimensional space.
After entering the Death Sword, he felt enveloped in darkness, as if floating alone in a deathly sea with no end in sight.
No one knew where it would lead or when it might capsize.
What he felt more profoundly was a chill seeping slowly into his body and soul.
This chilling sensation left him unable to move, even freezing his limited thinking ability.
He could only passively experience the fusion of this power.
As this power merged, the boundless death sea seemed less terrifying.
It was as if, with a mere thought, he could control the speed of his journey across this deathly sea.
The infinite death sea no longer seemed like a terrifying force that could extinguish life with the slightest touch, but rather a powerful weapon under his command.
Just like its physical form in the outside world, the Death Sword.

However, Su Ping felt no joy.
The remaining clarity in his consciousness, deep within his soul, kept calling out for something.
This was the ace up his sleeve, the reason he dared to enter the Death Sword and confront the so-called Death God reincarnation mark.
It was also his greatest reliance, which had brought him to this point today.
The All Spirit Compendium!
The Heavenly Tomb mark had once been absorbed and utilized by the All Spirit Compendium.
Su Ping believed that if it was possible then, it should be possible now too!
However, despite his constant calling and waiting, that familiar feeling never appeared.
Su Ping's heart gradually sank.
Could it be that the All Spirit Compendium's grade was insufficient?
Initially, he could absorb and merge with the Heavenly Grave Mark because it was merely a thin, fragmented seal. But now, facing such a massive amount, or even a quarter, of the Death God Reincarnation Mark's power, even the All Spirit Compendium couldn't absorb it?
Su Ping felt uneasy.
He would absolutely never cooperate with Charles.
Regardless of whether Charles was telling the truth, why would he share such power and authority with him? Even if it were true, what difference would it make?
He would never allow himself to become some sort of inhuman creature.
What could the so-called Death God do?
At this moment, the terrifying Death Sea seemed to sense the resistance deep within its master's soul, and the once obedient sea suddenly roared with towering waves!
Even the 'raft' beneath his feet transformed into a hideous beast of death.
Together with the entire Death Sea, they sought to engulf Su Ping completely, turning him into a part of themselves.
Amidst this onslaught, Su Ping clenched his teeth.
Despite the chilling sensation and the terrifying fear of death constantly assaulting his mind, he remained unwavering, preserving the last bit of self-consciousness deep within his soul.
Meanwhile, in the outside world, Charles eagerly watched the Death Sword.
He hadn't lied; among the Death God's four legacies, the Soul Flame held the most knowledge about the Death God's memories and soul.
The Death Sword symbolized the Death God's mastery over death and its rules.
Compared to the soul, once he grasped the power of the Death Sword, he would also experience a significant boost.
Perhaps he could directly help himself break through the Legendary Rank.
Indeed, he truly wanted to share this power with Su Ping.
But how could the soul flame, the true core, not gain anything once the Death God's power was restored?
The energy on the Death Sword vanished, and the surrounding black air currents dissipated.
At this moment, it seemed like just a pure black longsword, nearly one and a half meters long with a three-finger-thick blade.
Dark and profound.
Qian Yi, slowly merging his sword soul with his body, didn't blink, and even drooled slightly.
But at this moment, Su Ping faced the greatest test and danger of his life.
The omnipresent death energy seemed to be washing over him entirely.
Consciousness, self, and mind, all seemed to surge under the merging of this power.
Of course, there was a tiny benefit.
This onslaught enhanced his soul and spirit, and just a few days after his recent breakthrough, he broke through again, further unleashing his soul's potential.
At this moment, Su Ping became a true Monarch Peak.
A Beastmaster at the Monarch Tenth Rank.
Moreover, he was now twenty years old, having passed his birthday at this peak.
Of course, this achievement held no meaning in his current situation.
The cold death seemed to engulf him entirely.
However, at that moment, within his soul, almost entirely enveloped by the Death God Reincarnation Mark's power, a faint light appeared.
Just as Su Ping began to doubt the All Spirit Compendium's effectiveness in his soul state, a ray of hopeful light emerged from the depths of his soul.
The endless cold death could no longer completely occupy Su Ping's entire soul. On the contrary, the faint light's appearance made the death energy from a Mythic Rank existence retreat.
But at this moment, when the Death God Reincarnation Mark, now a living entity, tried to leave, it wasn't so easy.
Su Ping felt his soul within the All Spirit Compendium had become a locked iron bucket.
No matter the force of this power, it couldn't escape.
And at this moment, the All Spirit Compendium finally turned a page, slowly forming a familiar feedback in Su Ping's somewhat chaotic consciousness:
【Discover a large amount of advanced primordial power. Collect?】
In an instant, even in his soul form, Su Ping couldn't hide the slight upturn of his mouth.
