Chapter 1292: Underworld Soul River
Chapter 1292: Underworld Soul River
With Kent now at peak, his next move was to focus on his soul cultivation and then break the limits on his four attributes: body, mind, soul, and cultivation.
So far, he had broken 3 limits each on his four attributes, making 12 in total. Naturally, that was more than enough for someone in the high world.
Most prodigies in the high world can go as far as 16, some 18, and the best of them sit at 20. Naturally, they could go further than that. However, the resources in the high worlds are limited, so those who can go as far as 20 are both wealthy and hardworking.
However, Kent already has the means to break at least 3 more limits each, since to him, breaking a limit is as simple as having sex with his wives.
Ever since he began walking the path of slaughter, instead of earning spiritual qi from the yin qi he absorbed from his wives, it has turned into limit-breaker points.
Now, with every sex he has with his wives, he earns those points. However, while it isn’t enough to break more limits, since each limit broken increases the number of limit-breaker points required for the next, Kent happens to have a goddess in his harem.
When he was in the medium world, he wasn’t earning anything usable from Vexthra when they had sex. In fact, the yin qi she had sealed inside him when they first met in the god realm was basically useless.
She was too powerful for Kent to use even a drop of her yin qi.
However, the moment he ascended, the essence he had stored from her began to show its might. Now, provided he has the required cultivation level and soul strength, he can use the points to break the limits.
So now that he had reached the peak in cultivation level required of a mortal in the High World, the only thing left was to increase the strength of his soul. Thankfully, he has more than enough soul essence to use for that.
He had more worlds linked to him, and millions of people inside the tower now, so the last thing he would be worried about is running out of soul essence, at least while he is still in the high world.
"Time to increase my soul strength and see the surprises waiting for me inside my soul universe and soul sea."
The tower started directing the soul essence into Kent’s soul. The thrill instantly sent him into a state of joy. The more soul essence channelled into his soul, the stronger his soul gets.
His soul is vast, so like his cultivation base, a single level up is enough to boost his soul strength beyond mortal comprehension.
The last time he checked with Elsa, she had already reached Tier 21, showing she wasn’t limited by the high world limit either. She is a soul sentinel after. One of the 13 legions.
However, Kent knew he would be restricted at the Tier 19 stage. He knew this because he could tell his existence, if not kept in check, would topple the heavens.
Unlike Elsa, who, if restricted at Tier 19, would have her growth stagnate, Kent isn’t like that. Even if he was shackled at Tier 19, his soul universe is there to keep him growing, just like how, at the peak of his cultivation, his core is still absorbing blood essence.
So he wasn’t too worried. Even at Tier 16, he feels like he would win in a soul battle against a Tier 19. So if he gets to Tier 19, then perhaps even Tier 23 wouldn’t be his match.
Also, once he is back from Elina’s galaxy, he will ascend to the immortal realm.
After about three minutes, a message appeared showing his progress. Soon, more messages started appearing.
<You have absorbed enough soul essence to level up. Soul Cultivation: Tier 17>
<You have absorbed enough soul essence to level up. Soul Cultivation: Tier 18>
<You have absorbed enough soul essence to level up. Soul Cultivation: Tier 19>
<Congratulations, you have unlocked a new soul skill. Name: Underworld Soul River>
The moment the last message appeared, the limits started breaking. It was like the tower wanted to take her master to the peak as quickly as possible.
Of course, that is perfectly understandable, considering the situation they had found themselves in. Soon, however, the limits started breaking like crazy.
In no time, he has broken 4 limits on all four attributes: mind, soul, body, and cultivation. After the 4th limit for each attribute was broken, the process stopped, indicating that he had reached another bottleneck.
But even so, he had made so much progress that he never saw coming. He estimated three each, but he got 4 instead.
<You have broken the 7th Limit on your Mind.>
<You have broken the 7th Limit on your Soul.>
<You have broken the 7th Limit on your Body.>
<You have broken the 7th Limit on your Cultivation.>
"Well, that took an unexpected turn real quick," Kent grinned, feeling the power surge through him. "Breaking 28 limits in total while only at the Heavenly Ascension Stage. I wonder how many I can break when I become an immortal."
Kent didn’t even want to know, considering that Vexthra had told him that breaking limits on the four attributes is what increases one’s chance of forming Immortal Qi.
So at the Immortal Stage, aside from forming Immortal Qi, one thing everyone focuses on is breaking the limits on their four attributes.
She even bragged and said that by the time she became a True Immortal, she had broken 40 limits. According to her, that achievement put her on par with prodigies in the Immortal Realm.
However, Kent had just broken 28 limits, and it only stopped because of the restrictions of the high world. If and when he becomes an immortal, he can easily break more limits.
"I am a freak of nature." With the joy on his lips, he focused on the soul skill he had awakened.
So far, the only soul skills that aren’t from the soul universe are [Soul Shock], [Soul Torture], and [Soul Shatter], which he had no use for thanks to the soul universe.
Now, it seems he had awakened something good.
[Name: Underworld Soul River]
[Rank: Supreme+]
[Mastery: Perfection+]
[Description: Reach into the underworld and open the gate of your soul river, drowning the souls of all who dare oppose you. All souls drowned become a part of your strength.
NB: The more soul essence harnessed into the skill, the more water you can channel.]
"Looks like this time I have something good." Kent tried to test the skill, but just as he accessed it, he saw something that made him turn it off, his expression turning pale.
"What the fuck?" Kent screamed, gasping for breath.
[Hehe... The master is scared.]
"Hell yeah, I am scared. Who wouldn’t be scared of something like that?" Kent wasn’t even bothered by the fact that the tower just laughed. What he saw left him freaked out beyond his understanding.
"What the hell have I awakened?"
[I believe the master has awakened an innate talent that links to him somehow, or more precisely, a part of his past.]
"So you are saying one of my incarnations used to have this skill?"
[Created it would be more precise.]
"Damn."
