Chapter 1157
Just like Passed Princess said, War Dancer, who exists in the way of the soul core, will absolutely not be touched by Yun Xi as long as she doesn't let her guard down.
Don't look at how Passed Princess tears and bites, kicks and stomps on Yun Xi, but she has never really touched him once.
This is what makes the soul core special. Aside from being an ancient weapon in the form of a half-body, which has a synchronized reaction when fatally attacked, they are practically immortal.
Unless they encounter a divine-level sealing technique, they are immune to all physical and magical attacks in the world. They won't even be harmed in the center of a nuclear explosion, just like being protected in an isolated Ideal Homeland.
On the other hand, they cannot interfere much in this world. The most they can do is blow a cold wind or create a ghostly reflection in a mirror.
Yun Xi used the power of the faceless god to tear apart the Emerald Sea Dragon Beast and seal the black iron giant, but he couldn't truly harm Passed Princess and War Dancer.
They became his spoils because he had control over their half-bodies.
Passed Princess's black iron giant can quickly revive in place as long as it escapes from the high tower and touches the real ground.
The Emerald Sea Dragon Beast looks quite miserable now, with its head severed and its body dragging along like a broken snake.
But it wasn't alive to begin with. The severed head is just a result of significant internal system damage. If it can be taken back to the Underground Cemetery for repairs by the King of Undead, it can still be fixed.
The Passed Princess and War Dancer, are basically the core parts of ancient weapons. If their shells are damaged, as long as they are still there, the weapons can be repaired and used again.
The Passed Princess is not afraid of Yun Xi at all, because she cannot be harmed. As long as she doesn't want to, even a nuclear explosion cannot destroy her.
The soul core is such a mysterious existence.
However, there is one exception.
That is when the soul core voluntarily reveals its secrets and lets down its guard.
At this time, the soul core can be rewritten or even destroyed.
It's like innocent fairies opening the gates to their isolated Ideal Homeland.
Once the door to the outside world is opened, the fairies' Ideal Homeland is no longer invincible. This is an event that must be avoided at all costs.
At this moment, War Dancer is acting foolishly in the eyes of the Passed Princess, almost like committing suicide.
"No... don't...!"
"If you let him in, the war dancer will be in trouble."
"This shameless silver dragon can absolutely not be trusted!" Passed Princess desperately held War Dancer's hand. As fellow war weapons and soul cores, she cherished her companions more than anyone else.
Especially the war dancer, she was Passed Princess's relative, a cousin, and even a sister-like presence.
"I want to... do something." War Dancer looked at Yun Xi with a brave gaze.
This is a gamble, to willingly open her soul core to this silver dragon. It is a challenge, but also a sign of confidence. She firmly believes that her will cannot be changed.
She even wants to change the other side in return.
Unlike the naive princess who died from an illness, her death was extremely tragic, which gave her an even stronger belief than when she was alive.
She craves power and wants to change this world.
The king gave her a power that allowed her to possess the Emerald Sea Dragon Beast, which had the power to change the battlefield.
However, now the Emerald Sea Dragon Beast has been defeated and she has lost her power.
For someone who desires power, this is an unbearable situation.
Luckily, she still has one last move.
The development of the soul core has its advantages and disadvantages. For her, it means removing her last defense and allowing the opponent to directly access her true nature.
Likewise, it also allows her to access the opponent's true nature.
She wants a stronger power, just like the power of the silver giant before her eyes.
Everything is for the great king.
"No, I have a very bad feeling, we can't do this." Looking at the soul radiance spreading from Yun Xi's fingertips and gradually covering his whole body, Princess Passed showed an expression of immense panic.
Something is wrong, definitely wrong, with this silver dragon!
This is not the normal scenery after the development of the soul core. It's something she and War Dancer have never encountered before.
"Why... is it like this?" War Dancer also realized this.
It was an incredibly unbelievable fact. As the ruler of the Emerald Sea Dragon Beast, she had gathered countless Netherworld auras and was born from the battlefield of the divine era. Compared to the quantity of her soul, the silver dragon in front of her was insignificant.
The radiance on his fingertips was even hotter and more dazzling than hers, like countless shining stars in the sky.
"Quickly, get away from this silver dragon!"
"Danger, dancer!" Passed Princess, who noticed something was wrong, clenched her teeth and opened her own soul core, trying to rescue her from the silver dragon's clutches.
Unfortunately, everything was already too late, or rather, she walked right into it herself.
Like small asteroids attracted by the sun, the two soul cores could no longer escape the grasp of this scorching star once caught by its gravitational pull.
As for Yun Xi, he had no idea what was happening. He just watched as War Dancer and Passed Princess connected one after another in his mind, completing the mental link in an instant.
Hmm, now apart from Pafu, two more small connections appeared in Yun Xi's head.
"No, what is going on?!"
"Where am I, and what happened to me?!"
Passed Princess's voice shouted loudly in Yun Xi's head, giving him a terrible headache.
On the other hand, War Dancer, who had also completed the connection, fell silent and seemed to be carefully observing this unfamiliar world he had never been to before.
Helpless, Yun Xi looked at the two soul cores floating beside him, both of them now unconscious. They lay in the palm of the faceless god, gazing up at the endless starry sky. His consciousness began immersing itself into the small world they were in.
......
This place is an altar located in the starry sky. It is where Yun Xi accepts the trial of the stars and is also a reflection of his inner world and the place where he first met Meier.
Right now, on this previously empty altar, there were three newcomers - two adults and a child.
"Pafu! Pafu! Pafu!" Pafu, who was as green as fresh leaves, hopped around in the center of the altar, teasing the newcomer who was still getting used to this world.
"No, what is this thing!"
"Don't come in... that place... that place is not allowed..." Princess Passed sobbed, sounding so pitiful, but Pafu had no idea what it meant to pity someone.
After bullying Princess Passed for a while, Pafu found a familiar and warm spot and started enjoying the comfort of a long-lost chest area.
Yun Xi looked silently at Princess Passed, who was running around due to Pafu's bullying, and at War Dancer, who was being used as an enormous pillow by Pafu.
Hmm, having the ability to have clones is really powerful, the slime's talent is certainly cheating.
However, Yun Xi's biggest question was - how did you all end up here?
It's not strange that Pafu can come in. Pafu is Yun Xi's pet, a magical creature that Meier helped sign a contract with. Pafu and Yun Xi are perfectly synchronized, to a certain extent, they can be considered as Yun Xi's shadow.
The problem is that Passed Princess and War Dancer are not supposed to be here.
This is a projection of Yun Xi's inner world, the imprint of Starchild, in a way it is his biggest secret.
Apart from Meier and Pafu, no one else has ever appeared in this altar.
Speaking of which, when choosing the three initial fairies, I did see the figures of different fairies on two other paths of destiny.
However, Passed Princess and War Dancer are unrelated to oneself, why would they appear here?
Moreover, they seem to have real bodies now.
"This is... real breathing..." Different from Passed Princess, who is crying and completely unaware of the situation due to being bullied by Pafu, War Dancer is looking at her own fluctuating chest with an incredible gaze.
Even though her chest has been invaded by Pafu, she doesn't mind at all, and is completely immersed in the simplest breathing process.
Yes, just the simple action of breathing is so familiar and yet so unfamiliar to War Dancer.
She existed in a soul-like way and didn't know how long she had forgotten this feeling.
It's not just breathing, but also the sound of heartbeat, the flowing of blood, and the temperature of the skin.
This is the feeling of "being alive," a real and tangible feeling that only living beings have the privilege of experiencing.
For War Dancer, it was like dreaming.
"Welcome to my world," Yun Xi felt a connection that was somewhat unfamiliar compared to Pafu, and had a mixed feeling of laughing and crying.
It seemed that they had committed some inexplicable mistake and became connected to his soul.
As beings existing as soul cores, in theory, they couldn't be harmed as long as they didn't open their souls.
However, they made such a simple mistake, one that not even a three-year-old child would make, and opened their soul cores to Yun Xi.
Compared to their souls, the nature of Yun Xi's soul was unbelievably high.
This is the soul of Starchild, who has had four previous girlfriends from the Creation level. It is a soul that cannot be corrupted by the polluted Golden Sea of Chaos at the bottom of the Abyss, even the Supreme Heavenly Demon would be attracted to it.
Therefore, once the soul core is opened, even if their combined soul core is considered, it is still weaker compared to the quality of Starchild's soul. It is easily captured in an instant.
This phenomenon is like a weaker meteor passing through a massive star's range, instantly becoming a member of the asteroid belt. The difference in size between the two sides is too great.
Yun Xi doesn't need to do anything. The mere presence of his own soul pulls these two small soul cores over.
If it wasn't for Yun Xi's subconscious lack of malice towards them, they would have likely become nothingness the moment they entered here.
All curses related to the soul don't exist for Starchild. It is better to say that Starchild itself carries the greatest curse, the result of the collaboration of his four Creator level ex-girlfriends.
Being able to withstand the curses of all four Creator level ex-girlfriends, and even using one to suppress the other three, this ability of treading multiple boats is unique in the entire Endless God's Domain.
Compared to the curses of his ex-girlfriends, these two small soul cores don't even amount to a drizzle.
"Is this... your world, your soul?" War Dancer widened her eyes, looking at the countless stars in the sky above the altar, and the ancient and mysterious ground beneath her feet.
How much soul does it take to build a galaxy, with countless stars, in one's own soul?
For the first time, War Dancer felt that maybe this person was even stronger than The King of Undead, otherwise how could they create such a starry world!
She had once entered the king's world, and saw that desolate land, a death world made up of countless skeletons.
The power of that world was enough to destroy the entire Sia's world, it was the most terrifying Field she had ever seen.
Compared to the endless starry sky in front of her, The King of Undead's sad and lonely world suddenly seemed so insignificant.
What kind of soul can carry this starry sky?
What kind of fate can project such a huge world landscape?
The person who owns this starry sky wouldn't really care about a mere continental crown.
She knew, the great The King of Undead didn't even care about the continental crown he possessed.
In the eyes of the great king, there is a bridge to the sky.
The entire Underground Cemetery is a base prepared to build a bridge to the stars, it is the weapon that breaks the confinement of this world.
And now, War Dancer sees a more vast world, even more boundless and radiant than what can be seen on the ground, with a dazzling array of stars.
This is not a projection, she can feel that each and every star here exists, even that stars are constantly being destroyed and born again.
The ancient altar contains knowledge and wisdom that humans in Sia's world cannot imagine.
How great it is!
How mysterious it is!
"Yes, it's a very beautiful scenery, isn't it?" Yun Xi himself cannot understand the impact this starry sky has on outsiders.
The memories of Starchild, it holds the records of countless stars being born, growing, and being destroyed, it is the color of the stars that even the gods of creation would be immersed in.
Long, long ago, this place used to welcome different guests, who made a promise with Starchild under this starry sky - a woman.
The ruler of the Starry Dragon Clan, the leader of Dragon God's Domain. A dragon of order, the Mother of Time and Space, the creator, symbolizing birth, life, and eternal representation of death - Dragon God Asha.
The owner of the haunted Ghost City, connecting multiple dimensions, the master of the God's Domain of Darkness Abyss, the ancient source of pain, the god of the impossible - Nameless Lady.
The horrifying entity beyond description, the embodiment of chaos and confusion, one of the incarnations of the Abyss Will - Naiya.
The supreme among gods, the ruler of the colorful realms, the summoner of the divine market, the master of the Pantheon - Ionia.
"I will build a bridge to the stars for you, so we can be together often."
At that time, Starchild made such a promise to them, holding hands and making an agreement.
In the name of the great stars, I and Asha...
"Ionia..."
"Unnamed..."
"Naiya..."
