shadow pool

Chapter 16 Drifting

I have a new name, Shadow Sky.

Because from the day I released the Soul-devouring Beast, I have become a sinner of heaven and earth, and I can no longer appear in front of the world, otherwise I will be arrested and punished.So from that day on, I began to live a life where I could not see people in the shadows of others, so I changed my name to myself, Ying Kong.

After coming out of the human world, the Soul-devouring Beast did not release the smoke pool as promised.I said that he is very smart, he took advantage of my feelings for Yanchi, and forced me to do evil for him, capturing human souls for him to nourish his injured body.

I am naturally very resistant to hurting human beings, but once I resist him, he will reveal Yanchi's soul and torture Yanchi's soul in front of me, making me miserable.

Yan Chi never opened his eyes, but when he was tortured, the pained expression on his face was truly revealed.My heart felt as if it had been wrung to pieces, I finally compromised, and I said that as long as you let go of Yanchi, I will give you anything.

The Soul-devouring Beast smiled, and he said yes, first go to me and find ten souls for me to eat.

I looked at the recovered soul in Yanchi, and after being too bitter to speak out, I sneaked into the shadow and left silently.

He only said that he wanted the souls of ten people, but he didn't say who he wanted, so I cleverly captured the souls of ten evildoers and gave them to him.

After he benefited, he was very happy, but I was in great pain.

Because I made an oath back then that I would never harm human beings easily, and I still have the prohibition placed by Tian Shi in my body for my promise. Even if I kill a wicked person, the punishment will still come to me.

Every time those human beings shed a drop of blood because of me, my body would feel like a gash being cut by a knife.Therefore, the first thing I learned when I returned to the human world was to kill people with the fastest speed and the most agile means in the least amount of time.

The soul-devouring beast's desires are endless, he was not satisfied with sucking the souls of ordinary humans, and began to ask me to fetch the souls of people with spiritual power for him.I couldn't refuse, so I mustered up the courage to go, and came back with a whole body injured.Therefore, I learned the second thing to return to the human world, to learn powerful spiritual arts and protect myself.

I spend every day in torment, and the soul-devouring beast will release the soul of Yanchi to meet me at intervals.But I can only look at it, but I can't touch it, I can't hug it, and Yanchi won't wake up to see me or talk to me.

Seeing each other is worse than not seeing each other, but it is hard to miss without seeing each other.

In this life, I have loved, been happy, and also been in pain.

Missing without response, waiting without hope, I don't know when I can save Yanchi, and I don't know when I can end this coerced life.I was about to collapse, and the only thing that kept me from falling down was the soul of Yanchi who never opened his eyes.

Although I often see the soul of Yanchi, I am still lonely|lonely.When celebrating the festive season, I can only drink wine quietly, look at the soul of Yanchi, miss my father who is far away in the hell of Huangquan, and recall the past with Yanchi.When I saw couples walking hand in hand through the bustling streets, I could only look enviously, and then continued to be the shadow that was trampled under my feet.

Day after day, year after year.My spiritual power has been greatly improved due to self-protection, and I also forged a sword that belongs to me by accident, but these glorious achievements can't cover up the blood on my hands.

Over the years, the Soul-devouring Beast has become more and more arrogant, and began to be dissatisfied with only eating ordinary human souls, and even asked me to join the sect of cultivating immortals to steal the life and soul of the master.I'm not that stupid, and I also know that I can't deal with those people with high spiritual power with my own skills, so in order to hide the soul-devouring beast, I began to learn the third thing of returning to the human world, to hide the truth.

I crazily practiced spiritual arts to enhance the power of blindfolding, and in the end I was able to confuse the real with the fake.

Therefore, the ones I captured for the Soul-devouring Beast were evil children with ordinary spiritual power. I just used some cover-ups to make the Soul-devouring Beast feel the abundant spiritual power emanating from the soul at the moment of devouring it, but actually entered the soul. After an hour in his belly, those spiritual powers dissipated and became nothing.

Of course, there are pros and cons to everything. Using this spiritual technique consumes a lot of my spiritual and mental power, so I will feel weak and exhausted almost every few days.Whenever this happens, I will take out the black crystal hanging on my chest, caress and stare at it carefully, it is what Yanchi left for me, when I can’t see Yanchi, I rely on it to see things and think about others.

How many years have passed, I thought this life would be wasted like this, I took the soul of Yanchi as my sustenance, and the soul-devouring beast took pleasure in eating the soul to recuperate, and then restrained each other until the day when it could no longer be restrained until.

But my fate with Yanchi changed after meeting those people.
