Chapter 275: Soul Tribulation II

Then all the soul pillars began to glow intensely before they released a devastating blast of soul power from them.


Boom!!


The thick ice that had enveloped them all shattered into pieces. While his body that had turned white as it had almost turned into ice changed back to his body color.


When the white-colored frosty wind which possessed extreme coldness that invoked the absolute feeling that it would freeze all things, perceived that the columns in Alex's soul-dwelling region resisted it deep freezing power and devastating kinetic force that would reduce things to smithereens, shot once again into Alex's body and into the space in his body that his soul inhabited.


Now revolving around his pillars like a whirlpool, it tried to reduce his numerous pillars to pieces, while simultaneously radiating strong freezing power that would turn the shattered fragments of Alex's soul pillar into ice.


Arghhhhhhhhh!!!


Once the fearsome, unceasing whirlpool like-attack started, Alex started to unendingly scream in pain within. 


Now, he felt like he was in a glacier. The intense coldness that had permeated his soul caused his body to begin to freeze once again. And this time, his blood solidified. Same with his bone marrow and visceral organs which slowly turned to ice.


Alex suffered greatly from the intense cold that would soon fully turn his body into ice. And not long, a sweet-sounding, pervasive and persuasive feminine voice began to ring in his mind. It spoke to him that he should succumb to the great pain that he was being inflicted with. It told him that he should forget everyone and everything that he was attached to and journey into the afterlife, where he would meet his parent and the rest of his families. It told him to leave all his pointless struggles to become stronger behind and go into the death-world, a place where his soul would reunite with that of his family.


But Alex would definitely not listen to this voice that was compelling him to die. Why would he want to die. Although he would want to reunite with his parent, but in this way, ruining all their efforts over him. Besides, he knew that once he's was strong enough, he would search for the Deathverse; an unseen, boundlessly vast world where all dead souls go to. And once he gets where this world was, he would fight with the Deathverse Ruler or Undead Emperor for the souls of his parent and family, with the aim or intention of reviving or resurrecting them. But he wasn't sure if this was possible as it was all in his head. But he was going to try and do so. Therefore, he wouldn't listen to this voice that was persuading him to surrender into the arms of death and embrace it as if he was fated for it.


Once he arrived at this unyielding resolution, his numerous soul pillars which had frozen completely over produced sixty thunderously loud voices that impacted the sweet-sounding compelling womanly voice in his head. These thundering voices which were Alex's furious voice began to rebuke the beautiful female voice sounding persuasively in his head. Not long, the coercing voice continuously ringing in his soul vanished, while his soul pillars that had begun to glow brilliantly in light suddenly released a powerful all-directional blast of soul power that caused all the thick ice that had formed on them to explode into bits.


Besides, Alex had released wisps of tribulation flame-enhanced pyroforce energy which then began to circulate round his body, removing the ice that had formed in them. Being an energy that contained matchless destructive intent, all the millions of ice crystals that had formed in his blood, bone marrow, organs quickly disappeared, causing his usual skin color to immediately return.


Alex then thought of doing the same thing that he did before he finally broke through into the Core formation stage, which was to absorb the energy afflicting him and make it his. By doing this, the destructive power of his many souls would be matchless in his cultivation level, as they would possess soul-affliction tribulation energy which possesses the strong freezing intent. Which soul cultivator in this Planeverse, which was a world of mortals would be able to withstand the terrifying freezing attribute of his soul power, if he was eventually able to fuse the intense chilliness of the soul-tribulation wind with his soul pillars? He thought no one.


Then he set out to do what he thought in his mind.


Now using an absorption technique that he had long learnt about as he was an enthusiastic reader of all types of books, he tried to absorb the essence of the soul-tribulation wind that had recomposed and was trying to ravage his multiple soul pillars.josei


Once he employed the myriad energy and essence devourment power of his body that possessed the ability of the Negaria race, and utilized a soul-related, element-based methodology that he had studied, he uttered out loud with great determination emanating from his resolute voice.


"Absorb!"


Once he said this, thousands of abstruse symbols appeared on his body. And now emitting the Power of Suppression, the white-colored cyclone of intense chilly wind that had engulfed all of Alex's soul pillars and tried to reduce them into the smallest fragments couldn't cause much damage to them again.


Then with the power to absorb everything under the realmverse and in the inaccessible spaces in the realmverse, the arcane essence that constituted the furiously revolving, soul-tribulation wind cyclone that revolved around Alex's soul pillars was forced to halt it frenzied rotation. And once it revolution ceased, an ethereal, white-colored mist-like substance began to exude from the cyclone and entered into Alex's soul pillars. The cyclone which was extremely large in size as it engulfed all of Alex's thousand feet-tall soul pillars which were sixty in numbers, began to rapidly reduce in size. Not long, the cyclone was no more. While Alex's astonishingly tall soul pillars became partly white from their previous colorlessness.


The suppressed, transparent essence of the soul-tribulation wind which had permeated Alex's soul pillars had caused them to change from being colorless to white. It made half of the pillars white. After seeing this, Alex knew that when other tribulations descended upon his soul, and their essences were devoured, the color of his soul pillars would change again, becoming multi-hued in appearance but possessing many terrifying attributes.


Therefore, when the soul-tribulation wind essence was infused into his soul pillar, one that possessed a single intent which was to turn all souls, whether mortal or immortal, or that a revered cosmic lord completely into ice, the numerous pillar-shaped, mountainous soul cores in his soul-dwelling region began to emit a frightening wave of ice-based power. They radiated the power to freeze souls of all things that they struck or impacted.


Although they continually released this strongly alarming wave of ice-burying, soul-bound power; one that would invoke great terror in anyone that was in the range of it attacks, they weren't at that absolute freezing power-level yet because of Alex's soul-cultivation stage which was the Soulcore Establishment stage. However, now that they possessed this perplexing and astounding attribute, they would be able to affect the soul of anything that is impacted, rapidly turning them into ice. But this would also depend on the soul-cultivation level of the soul cultivator. However, one mustn't forget about the numerous slivers of protoforce energy in each of his soul pillars, which would cause Alex to be greatly astonished with his soul-beings in future.


And since he was done with this, he awaited the second phase of his soul-tribulation.
