?1442 Ji Ran

"We know that you have two Soul Weapons, but to be completely honest with you, we're not confident that you have enough soul strength to house both of our souls at your current level, so you cannot blame us for wanting to go first." Ji Ran said in a sighing voice.

"He's right, Yuan. You also can't blame us for being skeptical of your capabilities." Yu Ning agreed with Ji Ran, and she continued, "If you don't have enough soul strength, it would be incredibly dangerous for us to occupy your Soul Weapon, so it's not as if we have no risk. Normally, we wouldn't trust a Spirit King to be capable enough to help even a single one of us, much less both of us at once, but we're just that desperate to get out of this hellhole."

Yuan nodded, "I understand your hesitation, so allow me to get rid of them for you."

"How will you do that?"

"You'll see in just a second. It will hurt you a little, so prepare yourself."

After taking a deep breath, Yuan exerted some of his soul strength, manifesting it in the form of a rippling energy that swept through their surroundings.

When Yu Ning and Ji Ran saw this ripple, they immediately felt a sense of danger and dread coming from it. Without hesitation, they sacrificed some of their precious soul strength to shield themselves from the ripple.

However, even with protection, the ripple tore right through their defenses and inflicted a brief but intense pain upon their soul. The pain lasted for a split second, but it was enough to embed a deep sense of fear within Yu Ning and Ji Ran.

Yu Ning and Ji Ran subconsciously distanced themselves away from Yuan. Although he lacked the strength to destroy their souls, he possessed the power to torture their souls with immense pain, something even more terrifying than death to these immortal cultivators.

"That was only about 30 percent of my soul strength," Yuan spoke a moment later. "What do you think? Do you still doubt my capabilities to help the both of you?"

"Such powerful soul strength was only thirty percent?! Impossible! Not even a Spirit Enlightenment cultivator would possess half of such prowess!" Ji Ran exclaimed, clearly in disbelief.

Yuan smiled and replied, "If you don't believe me, I can do that again but with fifty percent of my soul strength this time."

Yu Ning and Ji Ran trembled in fear when they imagined themselves experiencing pain even worse than what they'd just experienced a moment ago.

"T-there's no need to go that far. I believe you…" Yu Ning quickly said.

"M-me too. I apologize for doubting your capabilities…" Ji Ran followed.

After a moment of silence, Yuan spoke, "I should've asked you this sooner, but what is your cultivation at?"

"I was at 4th level God Ascension before my body was destroyed, but alas, after spending countless years in here, my cultivation dropped to Golden Immortal…" Yu Ning sighed.

"I was also at 4th level God Ascension, but I've managed to keep my cultivation at 1st level God Ascension because of my unique cultivation technique, but that won't last for much longer. I'll probably drop to True Immortal in a few thousand years." Ji Ran shook his head in a dejected manner.

Yuan's heart dropped a little when he learned of Yu Ning's cultivation since it was below God Ascension, but he quickly regained hope after hearing Ji Ran's words.

"How long does it typically take for one to recreate their body?" Yuan then asked.

"It's not really a matter of time, but an issue of resources." Yu Ning said.

"In order for us to recreate our body, we need the proper materials. If you have the materials on you right now, we can reconstruct our body immediately. Unfortunately, these materials are quite valuable and rare."

Yuan nodded, "I understand. We can worry about finding these materials later. Before we begin, I have something I'd like to say—a request."

He turned to look at Ji Ran and continued, "You said that you'd give me anything I want if I took you out of this place, correct?"

Ji Ran swiftly nodded, "Indeed. As long as it's within my power, I will help you acquire it."

"I only need one thing from you—your assistance."

"Can you explain?"

"Of course. But before I do that, I have another question for you two. You guys have been trapped here before the Heavenly War of Immortals and Gods even concluded, correct?"

"That's right."

"Does that mean you aren't aware of the conclusion?"

"No, we are aware. Some of the survivors had come here in the past after the war and told us everything—about how a hero known as the Evil God showed up near the end and turned the tide against the Celestial Emperor, even slaying him in the end." Ji Ran said.

"He was widely recognized as the Evil God, but he was also known as the God of War. If it hadn't been for his efforts, this place would've been even more crowded." Yu Ning chuckled.

"We're also aware that the place we once knew as Divine Heaven is now known as the Nine Heavens," she added.

"That's great. Then I'll start from the middle."

Yuan proceeded to tell them about his homeland Earth and how they'd been split from the Nine Heavens after the incident that separated the world into nine realms. He then explained the current Celestial Emperor's actions and Earth's calamity.

"I don't know why the Celestial Emperor brought us back to the Nine Heavens through Cultivation Online, but I will find out. However, before I can even do that, I must find a way to save my own world."

Yuan continued to tell Ji Ran his plan, which required the soul of a God Ascension realm cultivator.

"I think I get the jist of it… you just need me to supply this Divine Beast my spiritual energy so that it can restore the formation, preventing your world from destruction, correct?" Ji Ran asked.

"Yes, that's right." Yuan nodded.

"As long as it doesn't require me to exhaust my soul strength, I will give you as much spiritual energy as you need." Ji Ran quickly agreed to help.

"Then you can enter this Soul Weapon first since I probably won't be able to use it while you are helping." Yuan extended the Starry Abyss, offering it to Ji Ran, who immediately flew toward it without hesitation.
