The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1346 - 514: Four Seas Divine Pool_2

"Whoosh——"

The crack once again widened, escaping into the void white, the body light as a feather, the five senses plunged into the Mysterious Mist, direction utterly lost.

"Whoosh~~ Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~"

Every time Ye Hanjun opened his eyes, he could see the alternating scenes between the void white and reality.

He held his breath, patiently waiting.

After what seemed like dozens of days, a sea mirage suddenly appeared above the deathly still sea surface.

At a fleeting glance, collapsed high-rises and sunken caverns hinted at the presence of living creatures.

"Swoosh!!"

As they say, it was later than sooner.

Xu Xuan took advantage of the exposed spatial rift, darting through in a flash.

Ye Hanjun’s pores suddenly tensed, and in an instant, his sensory organs awakened.

"Flap! Flap flap!!"

That was a deep sea vortex, its outer ring a deep blue rotating clockwise at a frightening speed.

But it also had an inner ring, bright red, spinning counterclockwise.

The two, combined, were an utterly discordant and bizarre phenomenon, transcending common sense and cognition.

Yet Ye Hanjun furrowed his brows and followed the throbbing direction in his perception, peering into the distance—

Beyond the vortex, in every nook and corner, were mutilated corpses left to the merciless exposure of the sun.

There were also surviving strange life forms, in utter terror, scurrying away with their head in their hands.

They possessed the handsome faces of human males.

Besides that, with one arm, double tongues, three legs, four ears, five eyes, six scales, seven brows, eight feathers, nine toes — all combined, not only was it not a jumbled and ugly visual shock, but rather, they were characterized by striking beauty and poise, eerily out of the ordinary.

"Momma mia, what kind of species is this, with divine fluctuations, and such a strange appearance, huh!"

GuaGua tried transforming into the same body type, his double tongues protruding, his sole arm swinging, finding everything awkward, and quickly reverted back.

"Chen Xin Immortal?"

Ye Hanjun softly recited the content he saw on the attribute panel.

The Chaos Seal corresponded to ’immortal’, which is part of the Divine Trace Lineage of the immortals’ system.

With the addition of the character "Chen," eight out of ten chances, this lineage descended from the Ancient Immortal God, "Heavenly Indignant Fairy."

"Eh, are there other species?"

GuaGua heard the intense sounds of battle, looked towards them, and suddenly saw two monsters charging out of the deep sea vortex.

One of them was an old Demon hag with white hair like crazy-growing vines, cascading from the sky, obscuring much of the view.

In her hand, she held a crystal ball, her whispers indistinct, it was unclear what she was saying, but it made one’s ears incredibly itchy, as if many layers of tiny people were stacked in a tower, chanting spells in unison.

A moment later, Ye Hanjun raised his eyebrows.

The itch turned into pain, as powerful Soul Power, like blades, struck at one’s spirit.

He dared not hesitate, assuming a defensive stance, ready for battle.

"Woo!"

The other divine being locked in combat, also with white hair and an aged appearance.

But it didn’t have feminine features, its sunken eye sockets exuded hysterical madness:

"Die, die, die! Everyone die! With Heavenly Dao destroyed, what’s the point in living? All of you, die!"

The divine being named "Soul Witch Emperor" was also employing soul-attacking spells, clashing with the "Spirit Witch."

It turns out that both entities were Divine Enthroned of the Witch lineage, with their status indicating descriptions such as "Law Pollution" and "Demon Seed Heart," suggesting they had fallen and become the henchmen of ’Calamity’.

GuaGua volunteered to take the initiative:

"Don’t know if ’Super Purification’ can lift the curse and pollution from Big Eyeball, but let me confront them!"

Finished speaking, GuaGua reverted to Heavenly Frog Ancestor’s original form, leaping high with a jump of its legs.

To fight two on one, of course, meant going all out with firepower!

Suddenly, its body grew larger and larger, its frog face dignified, frog legs robust, and when standing tall, it was imposing without being fierce.

That sacred and inviolable light, almost turned into rings of divine light rotating around its body.

And those sacred texts on the kasaya, soaring high into the sky, as swift as swallows, yet with the ferocity of dragons, make it hard to look directly at them.

Fatian Xiangdi—The True Form of Frog Ancestor!

This is an Upper Divine Skill GuaGua comprehended after proving himself as a Pure God.

In this state, he becomes a godlike Buddha, with hands covering like mountains and feet stomping like pillars, the oppressive power of his gaze is what ghosts and monsters fear the most.

"Wake up!"

"You should be kin, right? Why engage in such fratricide!"

Two gazes fell like giant blades, the fiercely sacred power instantly immobilized the two Witch Gods who were fighting fiercely.

Strands of "poison" mixed with deep black and grey matter began to drill out bit by bit from their bodies.

The two Witch Gods froze, their dirty and bloodshot eyes finally began to foster a glimmer of Spirit Wisdom again.

"It’s working! That’s great!"

"I am Pure, and also an Evil God Slayer—if I can purify such pollution, I can surely save many unlucky fellows!"

GuaGua pressed his lips tight, his aura even more majestic.

While continuing to exert force, he boomed out a voice as loud as thunder, leaving the two Witch Gods dazed and confused:

"Hey! I’m asking you!"

"Is this the legendary Four Seas Divine Pool? It is said that at least five Divine Enthroned reside here. Why are there only you two, where are the other divine spirits?"

"Your ancestors are beyond saving, but if you reform yourselves, you still have the chance to avenge and cleanse the shame of your ancestors!"

"So don’t get in our way, spill everything you know, and by the way, answer me, is there a path leading to the Gate of Awakening here? Why don’t I see it?!"

After dumping a slew of questions, the already overwhelmed Witch Gods could only move their lips, unable to speak.

GuaGua patiently waited for five breaths, during which the "Spirit Witch" gained clarity, and shakily replied:

"Pollution... transmitted along the bloodline... unstoppable... reacted too slowly..."

"The gods stationed here, Chen Xin Immortal, the Obsessed Divine Female, the Greedy Immortal—one died, the other two fled..."

"As for the Gate of Awakening... there is indeed an entrance here, but we cannot see it, perhaps it is deep within the heart of the pool..."

"Save... save us!!"

Another "Soul Witch Emperor," suddenly choked up, his eyeballs bulging out.

With a *puff*, the eyeballs exploded, followed by the skull.

Then, the rest of the Witch God’s body disintegrated, spewing forth a foul-smelling mist of blood that forced GuaGua to jump back next to Ye Hanjun, blocking it with the utmost gravity.

"Puff!!!"

As if triggering a chain reaction, the Spirit Witch self-exploded on the spot, following in the footsteps of the Soul Witch Emperor.

Ye Hanjun was stunned, these were two deities from the Witch System, with no room for falsehood.

They, just like the once Blood Witch God, Light Witch God, and even his father’s Death Witch Gods, held the same stature, with bloodlines so noble, one could only look up to them from thousands of years ago.

And yet... they just died like that?

GuaGua may not dissolve pollution from its roots, descendants of the Heavenly Venerate, even though they rank in the domain of myths, can’t control their destiny, and are left to decay and be enslaved by "calamity"?

"Without attempting to purify, maybe they could have fought and killed, lived a bit longer..."

"The moment they try to remove it, they get stimulated, and then the countdown, and with a bang, explode into fragments of flesh and soul..."

GuaGua analyzed from his perspective and concluded:

"Big Eyeball is overdoing it. If the Four Seas Divine Pool is like this, one can imagine that Primordial Mountain, the Eternal Life Pool—the other living places of the descendants of the Heavenly Venerate—will also go from glory to decay overnight, with no hope of revival."

Ye Hanjun, with a deeply furrowed brow, as if in deep thought, suddenly asked the person beside him:

"Huazhu, can you sense the Divinity after the fall of the Witch Gods?"

"I couldn’t before, only this place is somewhat different."

Huazhu closed her eyes and spoke gravely:

"My lord, I vaguely feel that something very important to me is left in this world, but deep inside, there is a strong repulsion, very strange."

"Hmm... the Divinity of the descendants of the Heavenly Venerate is obviously extra evolved beyond the rules."

"All Heavens itself has Witch’s Divine Status, carrying beyond the law, and perhaps unable to roam All Heavens at will, this might be the reason why the descendants of the Heavenly Venerate cannot appear in the world."

"And now... there’s also the pollution of ’calamity’, if it touches their Divinity, the consequences are unpredictable..."

Ye Hanjun pressed the center of his brows, pondered for a moment, and decided to give up:

"Let’s go down to the vortex below and see, something seems to be drawing my attention."
