Chapter 4489: Improved Violent Punitive Soul Physique
Vereina finally absorbed Lilliana Rayton's soul essence and began refining it.
The resistance she met after she yanked Lilliana Rayton's soul essence out of the seal was almost negligible. The poor Lilliana Rayton couldn't even resist after the excruciating pain she went through for two hours. She was absolutely spent, and there was no energy, causing her to be thoroughly refined by Vereina.
Vereina's soul throbbed, and her blood rushed. Her energy circulated towards her soul, rapidly transforming her Violent Punitive Soul Physique.
At the same time, she was also capable of accessing Lilliana Rayton's memories. Her experience with soul-devouring also allowed her to learn soulscouring, allowing her to access memories of countless souls she had devoured. She could look into it and discard it as she pleased.
She quickly accessed the manual she wanted to reference since she also needed to enter the Exalt Stage in the future. She imagined that this would decrease her cultivation time by many times.
Quickly, she found it.
[Soul-Devouring Yin-Yang Nirvanic Sutra]
Vereina inwardly cheered on seeing the name of this manual. She felt it was likely this was the manual that she used to secure her undying soul. Moreover, the Godskull seemed to be made from obtaining an Empyrean Grade Nether Devil Core, of which there was plenty.
Evidently, she also realized Lilliana Rayton had her encounter with a Nether Devil. Accurately, she had stolen the Nether Devil Core from an auction by sleeping with the host and, thereafter, researched the Nether Devil Core and used it as the core of her Godskull.
Nonetheless, she didn't go through the manual now and turned her attention towards her soul, which was undergoing immense transformation.
Inside the soul sea, her three heads still remained as three heads. However, its features drastically changed.
The faces now had runes on the forehead and the cheeks, appearing more tribal and devilish. As for the horns, they grew sharper, but the main change was that there were two pairs of eyes in each head. The golden-red eyes turned blood-red, shining with a malevolent light.
As she hovered in the air, she could feel it. Her cultivation base began increasing, and her prowess also visibly shot up. Immense power filled her, and she couldn't help but think she had achieved nirvana at that moment.
Outside, Schleya and the others saw the seal break down, and the twenty-six Divine Exalt Grade Armaments fall to the ground. Their spirits were once sacrificed to seal the witch. Now, they were nothing but husks of their previous majesty. Regardless, they radiated a tremendous might that made the Heaven's Warriors think they had a chance to fight back before Illumina threw them all into her spatial ring with a wave of her hand.
Nonetheless, most of the eyes were on the corpse that was hanging upside down because of the chains.
Lilliana Rayton's gruesome and bloodied body simply began to disperse, becoming dust. It was as though her body had lived long past its lifespan. The blood on the chains and the fountain also dispersed, causing the rest of the formation to power down.
The only thing left in the air was Vereina.
Her cultivation base exploded, climbing up the levels faster than they could ever imagine.
Even Clara had her brows raised. Back then and even now, she felt like Vereina was the fastest cultivator to be born.
Her cultivation base increased to Level Nine Empyrean Stage, hitting a bottleneck. However, the density of her aura didn't seem to stop rising. Her prowess, which appeared to be seven levels higher, soared, becoming eight levels higher and nine levels higher. Still, it didn't stop, continuing to rise until it was ten levels higher.
Not only did it increase her cultivation massively, but it also allowed increasing her prowess by three levels.
The Heaven's Warriors watching this- Faruja and Thalor, trembled at the birth of a new Soul Devouring Demoness. However, they couldn't even be sure if it was the old or the new one. By their knowledge, there was no way Lilliana Rayton could die without a powerful intervention like the Celestial Transcendent himself.
Finally, Vereina opened her eyes. It shone with a blood-red light before fading and becoming her normal black eyes again. She smiled cutely, “Success!”
With a squeal, she threw her hand to the skies, raising her fist in celebration.
Vereina couldn't explain how happy she was right now after having devoured Lilliana Rayton. She descended and stopped in front of Schleya and the others as she placed her hands on her hips and smiled smugly.
“Hehe~ I'm already so strong. I can only imagine how strong I would get after obtaining a few more souls.”
Vereina knew she could obtain Emperor-Tier Six-Headed Hydra soul essence from Gralex later on. And then she imagined she could also feast on Nine-Headed Hydras to enrich her Violent Punitive Soul Physique. There were still many improvements to be made, yet she had already caught up to the big three.
Their prowess would also drop when they become Empyreans, so she imagined that she had finally caught up to them.
Rokushi Mirai nodded. Now, Vereina was more powerful than her. Still…
“Are you sure you should've not held back the increase in cultivation? Now you can't return to the Third Layer.” Rokushi Mirai reminded.
Hearing her words, Vereina's expression deflated. Her eyes became soft, and her gaze turned forlorn.
“It's useless, but so be it. Just like Illumina and you, I'll also grow my powers here.”
She turned to look at a crimson-black robed woman, “Schleya, take good care of him. When you need us when you ascend, we'll be there. This time, we will protect you.”
“…” Schleya didn't say much but nodded and recorded her words in her heart.
“Alright, make us an exact copy of the manual you obtained. I need to deliver it.”
“Understood. I'll start now, so keep an eye on them.”
Vereina moved away and began transcribing the Soul-Devouring Yin-Yang Nirvanic Sutra into a new scroll. She took her sweet time, recollecting every detail and recreating it. She took a few hours to do it, but ultimately, she was able to transcribe it nearly perfectly.
Just as she nearly finished, her soul abruptly shuddered, and she found herself in her soul sea.
There, she felt something hugging her from beside, making her soul sink to the depths of the abyss, or that was at least what it felt like it, as she turned to look and saw Lilliana Rayton floating beside her, naked and translucent.
“I told you- I won't die, my little demoness.”
Vereina stared at the woman beside her. She wondered if it was an illusion but eventually shook her head.
“So what if you're still alive? You're nothing but a mere fragment who could do nothing. Eventually, you'll meet your demise if you meet my man sooner or later.”
She waved her hand, easily destroying Lilliana Rayton's manifestation.
Outside, Vereina opened her eyes and woke up. She gave the scroll to Schleya as though nothing happened.
Schleya nodded with a thankful gaze. She kept the scroll inside, had some discussion, left some instructions, and left the Shadow Dimension by herself through the Voidshade Chasm, returning to the Whispering Wildlands Lower Realm.
In the Shadow Dimension, the trio stayed for some time before ultimately releasing Clara and the others before they made their way out, returning to the portal without meeting any dangerous elements.
