Going Too Far
Chapter 48 Going Too Far
Of the nine types of soul power in the world, Jerry has already condensed seven. What's there to fear about condensing two more? First, Jerry condensed a purple lightning-attribute soul power seed, and it reached level one without any surprises. Finally, there was this white one, whose attribute was unknown! After absorbing a lot of white soul power, he discovered that it couldn't be condensed into a soul power seed. Jerry finally realized that this white soul power was attributeless; it could be fused into any attribute!
As the white soul power was absorbed, a sudden change occurred within the martial soul, making it completely uncontrollable for Jerry. Jerry tried to stop it but couldn't. He'd really messed things up!
When the white soul power absorbed a certain amount, it began to frantically absorb the surrounding soul power, and then this white luminous body grew larger and larger into a sphere! Jerry suddenly couldn't move. Originally, he had placed this white soul power in the very center, near the light and dark attribute soul power seeds, so these two soul power seeds were quickly enveloped by the white sphere of light, and then the absorption of soul power became even faster, with even the light and dark attribute soul power joining in! The white sphere grew larger and larger, and soon the five elemental seeds were conquered, and then the five elemental attribute soul power joined in. Jerry felt his martial soul trembling, as if it couldn't withstand it anymore. The lightning attribute soul power seed that Jerry had placed at the very top, initially relatively far away, but ultimately it couldn't escape being conquered either!
With the addition of lightning attribute, the sphere of light seemed to stabilize considerably! Now, all the attributes of heaven and earth were being absorbed rapidly, and soon the martial soul seemed unable to withstand it any longer; the martial soul trembled violently! With a bang, the martial soul exploded! The sphere of light was directly exposed to the air!
Jerry was completely devastated. His martial spirit was destroyed! Would he still be able to cultivate in the future? Would he be crippled?
Even after the martial soul exploded, the fragments were not spared by the light sphere, which directly enveloped them and continued to do so. The spirit rings outside the martial soul could not escape either, and they were all enveloped one by one!
Jerry was now on the verge of tears. He couldn't move at all and could only watch helplessly. He was even worried that the yellow ball would explode after absorbing a certain amount of soul power, and that the entire core area would be razed to the ground!
Jerry could only hope that this would stop soon, but reality was completely opposite to Jerry's expectations. It continued to rapidly absorb all kinds of soul power in the world, at a speed that made Jerry despair!
The surge of soul power in the world quickly caused panic among the soul beasts. The hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts could already faintly sense that the soul power was flowing towards the core area, and they all rushed towards it! Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu, who were cultivating, also woke up from their cultivation. They were the first to notice Jerry sitting motionless with a large ball of light in front of him, rapidly absorbing the soul power in the world. Because they were close by, they could sense the danger emanating from the ball of light!
"What's wrong with Jerry?" Xiao Wu asked anxiously!
But Jerry could only stare at Xiao Wu with wide eyes, unable to say a word!
As the sphere of light absorbed more and more soul power, it grew larger and larger until it finally touched the ground. Anything on the ground that touched the sphere was immediately sucked in. Now the sphere of light was almost a meter in diameter and was very close to Jerry. He could feel a strong suction force. Thinking that he would soon be swallowed up, Jerry felt very regretful. He had been cultivating in this world and hadn't even had a chance to properly see it before it was all over.
Xiao Wu noticed that Jerry was acting differently and wasn't responding to her, so something must be wrong with him. As the ball of light got closer and closer to Jerry, Xiao Wu mustered her courage and walked towards him. Although the ball of light frightened her, she was determined to do it for Jerry!
Xiao Wu quickly came to Jerry's side: "Jerry, don't be afraid! I'll take you away!" With that, Xiao Wu hugged Jerry!
At that moment, the light sphere seemed to sense something and suddenly increased its suction! Xiao Wu could barely stand!
"Sister Xiaowu, come out quickly, you have to come out, it's dangerous!" Daming shouted, and Erming also started yelling!
The ball of light increased its suction force, and this time Xiao Wu lost her balance. She hugged Jerry and said, "Brother Jerry, it seems we can't escape this time. Actually, Brother Jerry, I've always liked you. After Mom left, you were the best person to me. You taught me knowledge, guided me in cultivation, and came to live in the forest with me to protect me. I don't want to be your sister anymore, I want to be your wife! It's a pity I said it too late. We'll be dying soon. I hope I can meet Brother Jerry again in my next life."
Listening to Xiao Wu's words, Jerry thought to himself, "Xiao Wu, you're so silly! Why did you come here? You're so silly, so silly! Xiao Wu, I like you too, I liked you in my past life." But now Jerry couldn't speak, he was very anxious, and tears streamed down his face.
Xiao Wu looked at Jerry's tears and said, "Brother Jerry, I don't know what's wrong with you now. It looks like you can't move anymore. Don't worry, I did it willingly. I'm happy to die with you, brother." After saying that, Xiao Wu kissed Jerry's lips! Jerry's first kiss in two lifetimes was beautiful, but also a little sad!
The sphere of light quickly engulfed Jerry and Xiao Wu! After being swallowed, Jerry suddenly regained his mobility. He saw the core area of the sphere: a single, attribute-less sphere in the center, surrounded by smaller spheres representing various attributes. The five elemental spheres moved rapidly on a planar ring, while the darkness and light spheres moved on a vertical ring. The lightning attribute sphere was on its own, also vertical, perpendicular to the darkness and light rings. At the center of all three rings was the attribute-less sphere! These three rings were also composed of attribute-less soul power, somewhat resembling a gyroscope at first glance!
Various attributes rapidly absorbed this soul power, eventually transferring it to the sphere in the center! The sphere accepted everything, absorbing all attributes!
Then I saw Xiao Wu next to me. Xiao Wu looked like she was in a lot of pain.
"Xiao Wu, how are you?"
"Brother Jerry, I feel like my whole body is being torn apart! It hurts so much!"
"No!" Jerry roared, staring at the core sphere. "Stop right now! Stop! Don't hurt Xiao Wu!"
The sphere seemed to sense Jerry's will and stopped pulling on Xiao Wu's body. However, it still needed energy, and suddenly, a red spirit ring flew out from Xiao Wu's body. The spirit ring flew towards the core and was quickly decomposed and absorbed! The central sphere and the surrounding spheres seemed to have suddenly doubled in size!
"Xiao Wu, how are you?"
"It seems like Jerry stopped hurting me after he absorbed my spirit ring!"
"As long as it doesn't hurt, that's good!"
Suddenly, Jerry felt the space inside the sphere shake. He looked around and immediately saw that Da Ming was attacking the sphere of light. However, the energy attacking the sphere shook for a moment and was then absorbed by the sphere of light. At this time, he activated all the soul beasts to attack, but all the attacks were like stones sinking into the sea, with little effect. In the end, they were all absorbed by the sphere of light!
As it absorbed a great deal of energy, the sphere of light finally stopped and slowly shrank! In the end, Xiao Wu and Jerry were expelled and turned into something like a crystal ball. The core that had been seen earlier was now encased in this crystal ball. The crystal ball eventually shrank to the size of a billiard ball and then flew into Jerry's brain and disappeared!
Jerry looked around and, apart from the large crater they'd been swallowed by, nothing seemed to have changed. At that moment, Da Ming quickly asked, "Jerry, Xiao Wu, are you alright? What was that ball of light just now?"
