Chapter 62: Killing Soul Commander

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the sky, the full moon appeared aqueous.

Compared to before, there were fewer beast roars on Twin Dragon Mount.

This was because many of the larger beasts in the mountain had already been killed. All their blood was thrown into a cave by the cliff.

When it was midnight, the fog under the cliff silently dissipated.

Thud!

After a while, at the edge of the cliff that was almost a 90-degree incline, an eagle claw-like arm suddenly reached out and rested on the rock.

A black figure slowly climbed up the cliff.

Thud, thud, thud...

Then, he walked straight to the cave with slightly stiff steps.

Then, after a brief pause, he bent down and dragged the corpse of a two-meter-long Rank-4 antelope out of the cave.

“I’ve been waiting for you!”

However, when the figure reached the entrance, a human figure stood outside the cave, holding a translucent sword in his hand that gleamed coldly under the moonlight.

“Just as I expected!”

Ji Ye looked at the humanoid creature with three eyes and an eagle-like mouth. Its hands and legs were completely in the form of claws.

However, unlike the Eagle Man he had seen before, this Eagle Man’s third eye was glowing with a dim green light.

Apart from that, there was a large crater on the right side of his head that was covered by black gas!

“...”

Upon seeing him, the Eagle Man’s eyes flashed with a green light. He seemed to be slightly stunned. However, he immediately threw the antelope corpse down. A pair of eagle-like claws that were covered in black gas directly grabbed at his chest.

Thud!

The 1.5-meter-long Black Serpent Sword had already slashed at the Eagle Man’s neck. A sound akin to hitting hard rocks sounded. Although the extremely sharp Black Serpent Sword slashed several inches into the Eagle Man’s neck, it failed to complete the decapitation with one strike.

This was because the hardness of the Eagle Man’s neck was not inferior to that of a rock.

Whoosh!

Ji Ye took a step back and created an opening, causing the Eagle Man’s claws to claw at the cave wall, leaving deep marks on the hard mountain wall like it was tofu.

His body was as hard as steel and his strength was comparable to a tiger’s. Coupled with the black gas that coiled around his body, his eyes glowed green.

This made Ji Ye inevitably think of a creature—a zombie!

Apparently, the dead Eagle Man’s body was occupied by some kind of soul creature after it fell off the cliff because of Lu Zhishen’s stoning. It was tempered to a certain extent, turning this Ordinary Rank-7 Eagle Man’s body into something similar to a “zombie”!

Not only that, it was also a Frost Zombie!

After the Black Serpent Sword slashed into the Eagle Man’s neck, Ji Ye felt a chill emitting from the sword hilt and straight into his palm.

It even attempted to invade his blood and soul!

“Extraordinary power?”

Ji Ye raised an eyebrow.

Soul power was not extraordinary power. It was only a special type of energy that was on the same level as physical and spiritual energy.

However, this soul-piercing coldness was undoubtedly the extraordinary power cultivated by this Frost Zombie.

Extraordinary powers could naturally be resolved with other extraordinary powers.

Hum!

Ji Ye activated Primordial Chaos Force and channeled his inner strength to resist the invading cold.

Extraordinary Rank-2 power erupted from his arm. After drawing the Black Serpent Sword, he slashed again at the Eagle Man’s neck!

Clang!

Even the hard body of a zombie could not withstand the power of the sword. The Eagle Man’s collapsed head was immediately separated from its neck before it fell to the ground.

And his body suddenly stopped moving!

Hum!

However, a ray of green light shot out from the fallen head and quickly drilled into the body that was still standing.

Then, the body that had stopped moving immediately swiped the pair of eagle claws that were wrapped in black gas at Ji Ye!

In other words, attacking the original vital spots has no effect!

Then, what about cutting off all the parts that can be used for attacks?

Ji Ye had a chance to land a hit during the green beam’s trajectory.

However, he did not do so. Instead, he had a pensive look.

Clang, clang, clang...

Next, he cleaved off the Eagle Man’s limbs, letting them drop to the ground.

Sizzle! Sizzle...

A large amount of black gas emerged from the wound as they bared its figurative fangs. A faint green light could be seen amidst them!

Whoosh!

Following that, the black gas mixed with green light pounced at Ji Ye in the air. At the same time, a large area of cold air seemed to drop the temperature by twenty degrees!

“Are we getting serious?”

This was also one of the attacks of soul creatures, similar to the “possession” of ghosts in legends.

However, just as ghosts could not casually possess humans, soul creatures could not casually invade human bodies, especially Extraordinary warriors.

This was because the powerful blood essence powers of an Extraordinary warrior could directly injure it.

Perhaps this soul creature had something to rely on and had chosen such a method!

Yes, this knowledge was obviously information that Ji Ye had specially searched for on the forum the last time he went offline.

“However, this is undoubtedly the worst decision you’ve made!”

Faced with the surge of black gas that was mixed with coldness, a silver “Wolf King’s Mark” appeared on Ji Ye’s forehead.

Howl!

In the next moment, a black gas that was even purer than the soul creature rushed out of his chest and instantly formed a giant soul wolf. Its dark-red eyes looked like they contained flames.

The wolf opened its mouth and sucked all the black gas that came surging over into its stomach.

Hum! Hum! Hum!

The black gas was quickly dissolved and refined into the Soul Alpha Wolf’s body.

Although the green spots in the black gas were attacking everywhere in fear, they did not have much of a chance against the Extraordinary Rank-3 Soul Alpha Wolf.

In the end, it silently disappeared!

[Killed Soul (Extraordinary Rank-1, Commander) EXP gained: 306. Honor gained: 20. Rare Honor gained: 1.]

A message appeared in Ji Ye’s mind.

He obtained copious amounts of EXP, high Honor, and even one extremely Rare Honor point!

This was because this was an alien Commander-level “hero”!

“It’s really a Soul. And it’s an Extraordinary Commander! However, it seems to be weaker than I imagined?”

Ji Ye was puzzled.

The battle seemed to have lasted for some time, but, in reality, he had always been in control of the situation. He was completely suppressing this Commander-level Soul.

In fact, if it weren’t for the fact that he wanted to understand the means of this “soul creature” and gather information about its species, Ji Ye could have ended the battle earlier.

This was a Commander-level Soul equivalent to a hero. He felt that it was at most at the level of the Blue Alpha Wolf.

It was even weaker than the Blue Alpha Wolf. After all, even Lu Zhishen and himself could not suppress the “blood-colored wolf soul” that the Blue Alpha Wolf had produced through its Blood Sacrifice after its death. In the end, they had to rely on the Mandrill’s blood to resolve it!

Maybe I was wrong!

Ji Ye’s expression was odd.

He suddenly realized something.

He seemed to have overestimated the strength of aliens.

Not all aliens were as high-level and good at fighting as Eagle Men.

The reason why he had been feeling an abnormal sense of oppression these few days was mainly because of the Commander-level Eagle Man’s arrow from the cliff. Subconsciously, he had overestimated the abilities of aliens!

However, in reality, he was already someone who could fight evenly with Lu Zhishen.

Who was Lu Zhishen?

This was a hero summoned through Perfect offerings. In theory, he was a top-notch existence among the current heroes.

However, due to the Commander and Quasi-Commander creatures he had previously encountered, be it the Black Serpent, Mandrill, or Jade Scorpion... they all possessed powerful “bloodlines” and were extremely powerful!

As a result, he could not help but misjudge his strength. Today, he finally realized something after fighting with this Soul Commander.

“Without realizing it, I’m actually considered a powerful existence among peers of the same level!” Ji Ye said softly.

Hum!

A black Soul of Civilization appeared in his hand.

[Soul of Civilization]

[Level: Extraordinary Rank-1]

[Rarity: Excellent]

[Description: Able to summon heroes of your civilization and summon their corresponding body and abilities.]

Finally, a second hero can descend. With two heroes holding the fort, we don’t need to worry too much about the Eagle Men’s attacks!

Ji Ye was delighted.

However, Ji Ye felt that he could not be careless against the Soul race.

After all, this was the race that destroyed the first human settlement on Earth in the Land of Inheritance.

It was a pity that Director Zhou didn’t know much due to Ameagle’s confidential practices. The only thing he was sure of was that the intelligence of the Soul race wasn’t too high. They were roughly equivalent to human children.

However, it was also because it was too low that made it likely to have a whole brood come out in full force to seek revenge after he killed one!

It’s almost dawn. As soul creatures, they shouldn’t dare to attack during the day. Therefore, there’s still a day to prepare. The most important thing is to obtain an offering and complete the summoning!

Pew!

As Ji Ye pondered, the Soul Alpha Wolf had already digested the black gas inside its body. Its body had grown slightly bigger, and its aura was also stronger.

Finally, it spat out two items.

One was a white crystal that looked like ice and a black piece of jade.

[Ice Soul Crystal]

[Level: Extraordinary Rank-1]

[Rarity: Excellent]

[Description: condensed from extraordinary power cultivated by Extraordinary Souls. Note: Do not attempt to swallow it directly. You will not obtain superpowers!]

The first item seemed to suggest something, but it was not Ji Ye’s focus.

That was because the second item was...

[Soul Jade]

[Level: Extraordinary Rank-1]

[Rarity: Excellent offering (Rare)]

[Description: Soul Jade created by the Soul race after killing many creatures. It also imprisons the remnants of several recently killed human spirits. By communicating through a sacrificial ritual, you might be able to obtain the help of a certain hero.]

Apart from the Soul of Civilization, he had also collected the offering he needed.

Furthermore, it was a Rare offering.

Rare offerings could theoretically invite heroes who had no connection to the settlement’s background!

“Chief Lu, let’s return to the village!”

Ji Ye turned around and called out to a hidden spot on the cliff.

He got Lu Zhishen to come with him just to be careful.

However, Lu Zhishen did not participate in the battle since only one enemy had appeared and Ji Ye had dispatched the Soul Commander easily.
