Invincible Kungfu Healer

The Soul of the Ghost Mother was a very rare being. Normally, it only existed in the Underworld. The Hades Heavenly Ghost and the Soul of the Ghost Mother actually shared similar origins. However, the power of the Soul of the Ghost Mother was much higher than that of Hades Heavenly Ghost and was deemed the “Empress Dowager” of all Hades Heavenly Ghosts.

Although the Soul of the Ghost Mother was not especially rare in the Underworld, it was not particularly common either. Each and every one of the Soul of Ghost Mother beings was the Empress Dowager of her own Underworld tribe.

It was extremely unusual for them to be able to see a Soul of Ghost Mother in the Source World.

“Xu Qianqian?” Mo Wen’s expression was serious. He did not have much knowledge of the Soul of the Ghost Mother and did not even know what it was in the first place. However, he knew that Xu Qianqian’s condition did not appear normal at the moment.

Initially, Mo Wen had simply planned to save Xu Qianqian from the clutches of the Ghost Lair. However, things did not seem to be so simple anymore.

“It is impossible for the Source World to produce a Soul of Ghost Mother. However, in the Underworld, there are some special Soul of Ghost Mothers that are able to be reborn in different worlds…” Mo Qingge’s gaze was sparkling, and it was hard to tell what was on his mind at the moment.

“You mean to say that she is a reincarnation of a Soul of the Ghost Mother?” Xiao Hongyu exclaimed in surprise.

Mo Qingge shook his head. “It is very possible. However, the requirements for such reincarnations are very stringent. Normally, it cannot be done on one’s own accord. More than half the time, it occurs by chance.”

There had always been legends about these reincarnations across different worlds. However, no matter how strong Immortal Cultivators were, they could not confidently claim to be in control of such reincarnations. The Six Paths of Reincarnation were the most basic law of the Heavens. Hence, even Immortal Cultivators had no control over it.

“Just what does Ghost King Jiang Yan want by capturing that girl?” one of the veterans from the Senate could not help but ask.

“They want to catalyze the Soul of the Ghost Mother and use her power to form a passageway between the two worlds. If I have not predicted things correctly, they want to summon somebody over to the Source World,” Mo Qingge said with a solemn expression.

The Soul of Ghost Mother was a very special being. Her power could be harnessed to construct temporary passageways across spaces. Moreover, her ability to travel across space was superior to that of the Hades Heavenly Ghost.

That Soul of Ghost Mother was currently still in the beginning stages. Jiang Yan planned to use the God of the Underworld’s imperial edict to catalyze her such that she would at least possess the ability to construct a temporary passageway between the two worlds.

Most of the people of Huatian Palace turned pale. All of them started to think of Emperor Wu You whom Jiang Yan had just mentioned. If he managed to summon Emperor Wu You to the Source World, it would be a catastrophe for them all. Huatian Palace would also be destroyed in an instant.

“Is there no way for us to stop him?” one of the veterans asked with a pale face.

Xiao Hongyu shook his head. “At this point, it is far too late to do anything.” If he had known earlier that things would be so serious, they could have thought of a method of response and would have had more time to prepare. However, at this point, nothing could be done.

“The Source World has its own set of rules that nobody can go against. As long as the Underworld seal has yet to disappear completely, Emperor Wu You cannot possibly enter the Source World. The higher one’s cultivation is, the harder it is to cross worlds. I believe that at most, only a part of Emperor Wu You would make it over to the Source World,” Mo Qingge said.

Things might not actually be as bad as they currently seemed. If all the powerful beings from all the worlds could enter whenever they pleased, chaos would have long ago befallen the Source World. Even with very special methods, it was impossible for Emperor Wu You’s complete being to arrive in person.

The Source World was under the control of Huatian Palace and also had the Spirit Realm as support. If only a part of Emperor Wu You made it over, he would not be able to create much trouble.

“Emperor Wu You?” Mo Wen looked quizzically at Mo Qingge. When everyone talked about this Emperor Wu You, they all had pale expressions on their faces.

Mo Qingge glanced over at Mo Wen and thought for a bit, before saying slowly, “Emperor Wu You is the most mysterious person in the Underworld. There are many legends about him. Legend has it that Emperor Wu You is the person who has lived the longest in the Underworld. They claim that he had been alive since the Primeval Age, and legend has it that Emperor Wu You tended to the God of the Underworld in the past, even acting as his personal guard. Legend also has it that Emperor Wu You is not an average supernatural being, but is much stronger than other supernatural beings. It is also said that Emperor Wu You has the ability to seal Gods, but has never been willing to do so for an unknown reason…”

“There are too many legends that exist about Emperor Wu You, and nobody knows if they are true or false. However, one thing that we can be sure of is that Emperor Wu You is still alive and is one of the most powerful people in the Underworld. There are even many supernatural beings and undead that are willing to risk their lives for him.”

Mo Qingge shrugged his shoulders and said, “I don’t know much more. Anyway, Emperor Wu You is a living legend. He is the most renowned being across all the worlds.”

Mo Wen nodded his head, still a little confused. A presence of such a being was already out of his league. However, in this world, it seemed as though all the powerful beings from the various worlds had the title of being godly. Meanwhile, Emperor Wu You was simply an Emperor, yet he had so many supernatural beings serving under him. It was indeed a very unique situation.

“If Emperor Wu You was truly once the personal guard of the God of the Underworld, it would no longer be a surprise for him to have the God of the Underworld’s imperial Edict.”

If Emperor Wu You had the Edict of the God of the Underworld, nobody would dare to disrespect him. Meanwhile, Xiao Hongyu did not have much interest in this matter. All he was worried about was how to escape from this place.

The connection between the Huatian Palace Projection and Huatian Palace had been completely broken. Under the God of the Underworld’s Imperial Edict, it was not easy for any of them to escape from this cleft space.

As they were speaking, Jiang Yan’s figure began to fade more and more. Meanwhile, the black hole began to grow deeper and deeper. Xu Qianqian – or more accurately the Soul of Ghost Mother – who was levitating above the black hole, became more and more obscured as her body started to be surrounded by black mist.

The God of the Underworld’s Imperial Edict was in the air as it started to morph with the black mist to transform into a bright ray of light. It shrouded the Soul of Ghost Mother. Under the light, Xu Qianqian actually seemed to exude a holy and pure aura.

“It is indeed the legendary Soul of Ghost Mother. It has such a pure origin.”

The fading figure of Jiang Yan had a look of shock on his face. The Soul of Ghost Mother was very respected in the Underworld. Hence, he had never imagined that he would be in such close proximity to it.

Jiang Yan extended a finger and the light that enveloped the Soul of Ghost Mother cracked and exploded. In a moment, it turned into countless souls that floated about. However, within the blink of an eye, those souls gathered together to turn into a dense Ball of Souls.

There were tens of thousands of souls within the Ball of Souls. They started to sparkle lightly and appeared before Xu Qianqian before delving straight into her body.

Ow!

A piercing scream resounded and Xu Qianqian suddenly opened her eyes. A faint green light started to fill the entire sky. Her pupils had turned green, and they looked like the purest emeralds. Her eyes emanated an aura of elegance and purity, yet, at the same time, there was a faint sense of evil.

Between her brows, an additional rune had appeared. On it was a red colored mark that had been contorted by lightning, forming a blood-red lightning eye in the middle.

A layer of black mist surrounded her body and within it, there were countless contorted souls. It seemed as though there was a deep sea of souls hidden within the mist.

“Is that the Soul of Ghost Mother?” Mo Wen let out a cold breath of air. Even from a thousand meters away, he could feel the deathly threat from the body of the Soul of Ghost Mother. It was as cold and evil as a curse and seemed as though it would be almost impossible to get rid of because it existed deep in her bones.

“That is the Soul of Ghost Mother that has just been formed. It is still in the preliminary stages. If it was the Soul of Ghost Mother in the growing stage or adult stage, your soul would be sucked away just by making eye contact with her,” Mo Qingge said calmly.

“Then, she…” Mo Wen’s expression turned ugly. Xu Qianqian had actually become a being that was neither human nor ghost.

“Don’t think about it anymore. She is no longer your friend but is now the preliminary Soul of Ghost Mother. It is hard to say if she will even have her memories from before. You should think of her as though she has already died.”

Mo Qingge looked over at Mo Wen. He naturally knew of the relationship between Mo Wen and Xu Qianqian. However, from now on, Xu Qianqian would no longer be the Xu Qianqian from before.

Mo Wen let out a light sigh and did not say anything more.

In the ancient city, a cleft space had appeared suddenly. All the members of the Ghost Lair began to stream out in groups. Under the God of the Underworld’s Imperial Edict, only Jiang Yan had the ability to open a passageway in the cleft space. Evidently, he no longer wanted the people of the Ghost Lair to remain in the cleft space.

The young master of the Ghost Lair looked deeply into his father’s eyes, before looking at the people of Huatian Palace with a deep hatred. Then, he left the cleft space without a trace.

“We warmly welcome Emperor Wu You and thank him for gracing us with his presence in this world.”

Jiang Yan dropped to his knees. His figure began to fade even more, before turning into a light ray and entering Xu Qianqian’s body. Xu Qianqian’s body suddenly exploded with a million light rays. There was a mysterious power exuding from her body and the black hole that was wrapped around her began to swell, covering the entire sky and ground.

A blood-red passageway began to extend endlessly from the center of the black hole. On the other end, it had connected to the body of the Soul of Ghost Mother.

Oh!

There was a cry and the Soul of Ghost Mother became like a flaming red piece of iron. Her entire body was shining with red-hot rays. She seemed to have been attracted by something as she waved her hand carelessly and destroyed the barrier of space. Then, with a knock of her head, she barged her way into the passageway, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, an immensely huge aura was transmitted through the passageway.

Cough!

Cough!

A large number of the Huatian Palace warriors turned pale and began to cough up blood. Some of them had even keeled over. In the face of that invisible force, they could only surrender like mere ants.

Mo Wen had also turned pale and was continuously coughing up blood. However, his perseverance was stronger than the rest and he forced himself not to keel over. However, under such a strong force, the torture in his mind was even worse than death itself.

Just as Mo Wen felt that the pain was too much to bear, a ray of white light suddenly shone down on his body. The uncomfortable feeling immediately lifted completely.

Mo Wen tilted his head to look up and saw Mo Qingge.

“Luckily, it is not the worst-case scenario. I believe that was only a part of Emperor Wu You.”

Mo Qingge’s expression had relaxed significantly. If it the actual Emperor Wu You had made his appearance, even she would not be able to withstand the force, let alone those ancient martial art practitioners like Mo Wen.
