Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 55: Soul Essence

No one else paid attention to Alu's expression. Roux and Reva both stared at Varog's severed head.

Shua...

Reva slashed her sword very hard. As the sword passed through Varog's neck and hit the ground, it also caused Varog's separated body and head to jolt upwards.

Blood then spurted everywhere so that even Alu who was far enough away was hit by quite a lot of blood splashes. However, the splashes of blood could not fully hit Alu. Every time they would hit Alu, there would be a thin barrier blocking them.

Varog's head was thrown right in front of Reva, and by chance, Varog's face also facing towards Reva.

For experts at the Life and Death stage, except for a few experts who possessed special techniques, a severed neck was basically enough to take their lives. But even if they were certain to die, that didn't mean they would just die.

When Varog's head turned towards Reva, Varog wasn't completely dead. His life force continued to drop drastically, but he still had some consciousness left.

When Varog faced Reva, he could still show an expression.

He looked like he wanted to open his mouth, but it could barely open his mouth. Of course he could speak if he tried, but when he saw Reva's expression, he chose to stop.

Reva who saw Varog's head right in front of her didn't actually look sorry. On the contrary, her eyes that were previously only cold had suddenly turned savage.

Coupled with the splash of blood that filled her face, she now truly looked like a bloodthirsty demon.

Seeing Reva's face, Varog finally realized that Reva was really not Reva he had known all this time. Not only that, that woman had even changed considerably.

"Ahhhh.... Alu, I curse you to experience what I experienced today. You will definitely feel it."

Just before his death, Varog could actually scream. He cursed Alu hatefully.

To his surprise, just as Varog was cursing Alu, Reva suddenly became furious.

"You, how dare you curse His Highness. You deserve a miserable death... I will send you to hell." She shouted at Varog and looked as if she wanted to pounce on Varog.

Reva's words and actions drove Varog completely insane before his death. His eyes turned red as he watched Reva start pouncing at him.

Using her hands, Reva looked like she wanted to crush Varog's head.

Whooss...

However, before Reva's hand could reach Varog's head, another hand suddenly appeared first. The hand was white and a little thin.

Reva who saw the hand immediately stopped her movement. She stopped because she saw that it was Alu's hand.

Right now, when Reva looked at Alu, her eyes were no longer what they were before. Her gaze was currently filled with ecstasy and adoration as if Alu was the god who had created her.

Of course, in Reva's current eyes, Alu was really the god who created her. Alu is a god who creates new herself.

Reva then wiped the blood splattered on her face. She then spoke in a respectful tone.

"You are my god." She says.

Her expression looked like she wanted to bow down to Alu.

If not for Alu being busy with Varog's head, she would have bowed down right then and there.

Roux who was beside her was completely stunned when he saw what Reva was doing.

Alu grabbed Varog's hair.

After which, black flames that looked strange suddenly surged from Alu's hand. The flames directly covered Varog's head. The moment that happened, Varog's head turned to ashes in just an instant. It disappeared amid the flames.

As Varog's head disappeared, a tiny speck of light emitting Varog's aura suddenly appeared right in the middle of the flames.

Even though it was only a small light, it actually emitted an extremely intense aura of hatred.

"Essence of the soul." Those who saw that tiny light couldn't help exclaiming in shock.

The essence of the soul can be said to be the core of every living being. It is the place where one's consciousness originates.

For extremely powerful experts, they could even control their soul essence.

Those who can do that will not be able to be killed unless their soul essence is destroyed. Even if their bodies are completely destroyed, they can rise again by forming new bodies.

Of course, that was only for extremely strong experts. For Life and Death stage experts, they were far from capable of doing that.

They have no control over their soul essence.

Normally, every time they died, their soul essence would disappear along with the universe.

Even if they used certain treasures to save their soul essence, they still wouldn't be able to awaken like the extremely powerful experts did.

They lacked the ability to control their soul essence.

Even those who can do that will need a lot of effort if they are to get back up.

Of course, if there were truly extremely powerful experts helping out, they might still be able to bounce back. But clearly not just anyone can get such help.

Roux and Reva who saw the soul essence couldn't help but be surprised. They know that it is the essence of Varog's soul. What makes them surprised is that Alu can actually capture the essence of the soul.

It must be known that a treasure that can save soul essence is not an arbitrary treasure. Not even Nirvana level spiritual weapons could compare to that. Only an extremely powerful spirit master could create treasures to save soul essence.

If such treasures could be found everywhere, each clan could naturally resurrect their dead if they had the ability one day.

Alu didn't care about Roux and Reva's surprised reaction. As Alu felt an aura of hatred emanating from Varog's soul essence, his eyes glowed even brighter.

Capturing or saving soul essence was not a difficult thing for Alu with his Phoenix soul power.

"Well, this will be of use to me."

When Alu said that, he then attracted the flames that captured the essence of Varog's soul. He smiled happily as he saw Varog's soul essence.

And when Varog's soul essence arrived in front of him, Alu did something that took Roux and Reva by surprise.

Alu suddenly directed Varog's soul essence into his mouth.
