Chapter 714
On the surface it was a self-explosion, but secretly he let his Remnant Soul escape.
He is of the Soul Clan, and clearly his understanding of souls far exceeds his own; he must have a way to restore a Remnant Soul.
Clearly, Antares had helped him once again.
Antares looked at Lin Moyu, knowing he already understood.
Hu Hou snorted arrogantly, turning her head and ignoring Hong Hong Zhu.
Lin Moyu softened his tone, "Can you tell me about the Soul Clan?"
"Apologize!" Antares slowly uttered two words, but did not refuse Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu took a deep breath, "I'm sorry, I was indeed too anxious just now."
Just now Lin Moyu was indeed a bit angry; if Jiang Yi's sword strike hadn't been aimed at Senior Ye Hao but at Bai Yiyuan instead…
Bai Yiyuan might not have been able to escape unscathed.
If something had really happened, Lin Moyu would have regretted it.
That was why he was somewhat angry with Antares.
But thinking about it now, it wasn't actually Antares's business; he himself was fine, and at that time, he wasn't familiar with it.
Antares still ignored Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu flew in front of Antares's eyes, less than half a meter away, and bowed sincerely, "I'm sorry, Lord Antares, I was wrong this time!"
"You are broad-minded, surely you won't hold it against me, right?"

Chapter 695: The Miserable Jiang Yi
Under Lin Moyu's persistent pestering, Antares, being a magnanimous dragon, finally forgave Lin Moyu.
Then, a fist-sized bubble appeared in front of Lin Moyu.
Inside the bubble was Jiang Yi's Remnant Soul, looking very weak, unconscious, and without awareness.
Antares puffed out Dragon Breath, casually playing with the bubble; as the bubble tumbled, the Remnant Soul inside tossed and turned incessantly.
The Remnant Soul did not wake up, but Lin Moyu saw pain on its expression.
The Remnant Soul was already very weak, and who knew how long it would take to recover; after being tossed around by Antares like this, it became even weaker.
Lin Moyu looked at the bubble and mourned for Jiang Yi for half a second; Jiang Yi's Remnant Soul could dissipate into nothingness at any moment.
He probably never imagined he would fall into Antares's hands.
Antares said, "Do you see the thing inside the Remnant Soul?"
Lin Moyu nodded, "In the center of the Remnant Soul, there seems to be a pebble."
"That's not a pebble; that's the Soul Core of the Soul Clan." Antares exhaled a puff of Dragon Breath that merged into the bubble and seeped into Jiang Yi's Remnant Soul.
Jiang Yi's Remnant Soul showed a look of pain, trembling even in his coma.
In the center of the Remnant Soul, a point of light lit up, tiny, smaller than a fingernail, looking like a pebble.
Antares said, "The Soul Clan isn't some powerful race; their weakness is too obvious. They have no physical bodies and need to possess the bodies of other races."
"Therefore, the Soul Clan's appearances are all sorts of strange, coming from every race, and they have a bad reputation; no race likes them."
Lin Moyu understood immediately; who would like a race that spends all day thinking about possessing them?
The Soul Clan was likely like a rat crossing the street, hated by everyone.
Antares continued, "However, the Soul Clan also has advantages; as long as their Soul Core isn't destroyed, they can regenerate."
"They can discard their physical bodies at any time; as long as the Soul Core remains, they can find another body to possess after regenerating. At most, they just have to cultivate all over again."
"If they happen to encounter a powerful physical body, the Soul Clan can even become extremely powerful in a short time."
Lin Moyu said, "Has no one wiped out such a race?"
In Lin Moyu's understanding, such a race would surely be targeted or even attacked by everyone.
Antares shook its head, "They want to, but they can't."
"Are there invincible existences in the Soul Clan?" Lin Moyu thought about it; that was the only possibility.
"That's one reason."
Antares exhaled Dragon Breath, and Jiang Yi's soul showed pain again, trembling constantly.
Antares seemed to have become addicted to playing, treating Jiang Yi's Remnant Soul as a toy.
As for whether Jiang Yi lived or died, it didn't care at all.
It said while playing, "There are indeed several powerhouses in the Soul Clan, but that's not the main reason. There are plenty of races much stronger than the Soul Clan."
"The key is that the Soul Clan is hard to kill; to kill a member of the Soul Clan, you must destroy their Soul Core."
"But after reaching the True God Realm, the Soul Clan can split off a second Soul Core."
"And later, as their realm increases, they can split off a third or fourth Soul Core."
"A wily hare has three burrows; these rascals will hide their split Soul Cores. God knows which corner they'll hide them in."
"As long as one Soul Core is missed, they can be resurrected and regenerated."
Lin Moyu said, "In that case, can the Soul Clan never be completely wiped out?"
Antares shook its huge head, "Not necessarily, it's just very troublesome to kill them."
"For certain truly and incredibly powerful existences, wiping out the Soul Clan isn't difficult, but in the eyes of such existences, the Soul Clan is nothing."
"The Soul Clan is just a little ant in their eyes; as long as this little ant doesn't crawl onto them, they don't bother to act."
"The Soul Clan is also very smart; they know which races they can provoke and which they cannot."
Lin Moyu nodded inwardly; to survive in a world full of powerhouses, the Soul Clan must have their ways.
However, from Antares's words, Lin Moyu also heard that the outside world is similarly a place where the strong prey on the weak.
The law that might makes right was very clearly visible.
Lin Moyu continued to ask, "Jiang Yi once said he wanted to become the World Lord, and also said that becoming a Super God would make him immortal."
"Oh, is that so?" Antares asked with doubt, "The Soul Clan's so-called immortality generally refers to being able to split off a second Soul Core and then hiding it somewhere no one can find."
"But that can only be done after reaching the True God Level. It seems this guy still has secrets; let me investigate."
Antares moved; the mist that was always wrapped around its body continuously churned, surging like the sea and covering the sky, almost in the blink of an eye, it obscured most of the Core Area.
Even the flowing light in the sky was obscured by the thick fog.
Then Lin Moyu saw a huge dragon claw emerge from the thick fog.
The dragon claw was incredibly massive, enough to cover a hundred miles.
—0 Flowers Requested—
The dragon claw was purple-black, radiating a heavy atmosphere, incomparably noble.
Compared to the bubble that was only the size of an adult's fist, it seemed so insignificant.
A wisp of purple-gold energy flew from the dragon claw and landed on the bubble.
"Soul Search!"
A deafening voice rang out within his soul; Lin Moyu only felt his soul tremble violently, his whole body in excruciating pain.
Lin Moyu was horrified; Antares wasn't targeting him, yet he still felt a threat from the depths of his soul.
If Antares were targeting him, he would surely have no power to resist.
Antares's strength had reached a level he could not comprehend.
The nine-colored dragon soul crystal spat out a breath of Dragon Breath to protect his soul at this time, but he could still feel the stinging pain; it seemed even the nine-colored dragon soul crystal had lost its effect.
It wasn't that the nine-colored dragon soul crystal was bad, but that Antares was too strong, and Lin Moyu's soul level was indeed a bit too low.
…
Lin Moyu endured the stinging pain and watched Antares's movements closely.
The thunderous roar shook his soul; the words "Soul Search" went deep into his soul, unable to be erased.
Lin Moyu knew Antares roared intentionally for him to hear.
It could have refrained from shouting; shouting for him to hear was to let him know what it was doing.
Soul Search: searching the soul to obtain information.
Inside the bubble, Jiang Yi's soul was startled awake under the Soul Search, his soul twisting in extreme pain.
Lin Moyu could hear the soul-sound emitted by Jiang Yi, which was truly miserable beyond words.
First being used as a toy by Antares, and now being searched; this fellow was truly miserable.
Looking at Jiang Yi's life, one could indeed write a history both tragic and laughable.
Jiang Yi's soul gradually faded and disappeared under Antares's search.
Finally, only a Soul Core remained; after a few seconds, the Soul Core also exploded.
Jiang Yi was completely dead, turned to ashes, dead as can be.
With Jiang Yi's complete death, the Core Area returned to normal.
Antares opened its eyes, a glint of light flashing through, "So that's how it is. No wonder he said a Super God could be immortal; a world core actually fell here."
"How did I not notice it before? I really missed it."
"What a pity, this guy is truly pathetic."
Antares muttered to itself, its eyes drifting toward Lin Moyu, the meaning being, "Beg me, and if you beg me, I'll tell you."
Looking at Antares's eyes, two words popped into Lin Moyu's mind: Shameless!
Chapter 696: Kill Me, Four Times!
The person and the dragon stared at each other again; finally, after persisting for half a minute, Antares couldn't help but retreat.
"Alright, alright, for the sake of your thirst for knowledge, this deity will tell you." Antares found a way out for itself and jumped right down.
Lin Moyu chuckled, "Lord Antares is truly magnanimous."
"Of course!" Antares also went along with Lin Moyu's words, "According to this guy's memory, there is a world core in Deep Space. After he becomes a Super God and absorbs the world core, he can use the world core to split off a second soul."
"world core?" Lin Moyu heard another new term and discovered a new continent.
Just looking at the name, it must be something extraordinary.
Antares didn't keep him in suspense this time and explained directly, "A world core is the seed left behind after a world dies. Worlds can be large or small, strong or weak. The world core found by Jiang Yi is just the core of a Small World, not very powerful."
"But even if it's the core of a Small World, it's still a good thing, at least better than everything you've obtained so far."
Lin Moyu didn't quite believe it, "Better than the nine-colored dragon soul crystal?"
Cough cough!
Antares coughed twice in a row, "That's incomparable. Even people make mistakes and dragons misspeak; I said it wrong."
"Anyway, just know it's a good thing."
Lin Moyu chuckled, "Then what exactly is its use?"
Antares said, "A world core has many uses; it's a True God Level item. It can be used to create True God Level weapons, and it can also be used for cultivation to comprehend laws."
"After all, it is the product of a Small World's destruction, condensing all the essence within that Small World."
"However, these uses are secondary for you. If you can obtain it, you'll have the chance to truly become a World Lord."
Lin Moyu said, "Is it the World Lord of that world that was already destroyed?"
Antares shook its head, "No, it's the World Lord of your current world. Think about it, if you become the World Lord, everyone in the entire world will be your subordinate. You can let them live or die at your whim."
"Even a Super God Level wouldn't be able to threaten you. At that time, even if you face a True God Level, you'll have some power to protect yourself."
Lin Moyu suddenly felt a creepy sensation.
