Chapter 410 Chen Hong's Divine Soul-Level Soul! [Please subscribe! Please vote!]

As a powerful figure, Chen Hong appeared somewhat aggressive when facing a soul beast that seemed on the verge of extinction.

Ultimately, it comes down to Chen Hong, who prioritizes human interests, not treating soul beasts as human beings at all when it comes to core interests.

Well, okay, soul beasts are indeed not human.

Although much evidence in "Soul Beast Studies" suggests that soul beasts are the ancestors of humans, or rather, one of their ancestors, the existence of innate martial souls, human genes lacking soul power, and the civilization of soul tools all indicate that perhaps the earliest ancestors of humans were extraterrestrials, and soul beasts were merely imitators.

However, just like in the history books of the Lanca interstellar civilization in another world, millions of years ago, due to geological changes, a group of forest apes in the tropics left the forest and went to the plains, thus gradually evolving into the Homo sapiens species, while other forest apes that were once close relatives of the ancestors of Homo sapiens evolved into gorillas.

So, in human values, would we consider gorillas as our ancestors or fellow human beings?

The answer is, no.

Furthermore, in basic human values, gorillas are sometimes viewed as products of evolutionary failure. (From a broader perspective, among a group of co-evolving species, Homo sapiens is the victor. As the victor, Homo sapiens is able to withstand the next mass extinction, while other co-evolving species cannot. Therefore, calling them evolutionary failures is not an exaggeration.)

This may be a kind of arrogance belonging to Homo sapiens, but judging from the results, Homo sapiens certainly had the right to be arrogant.

While Chen Hong wouldn't exhibit unnecessary arrogance, he also wouldn't regard soul beasts as the ancestors of humanity.

A more scientific viewpoint is that Chen Hong regarded soul beasts as "old things".

Old things will eventually be replaced by new things.

Furthermore, new things absorb the good aspects of old things, and soul beasts can be seen as a gift from nature to the entire human soul master civilization. Or perhaps, a legacy? Or spoils of war?

Chen Hong didn't know, but there was one thing he insisted on: "New things will absorb the good parts of old things." When Chen Hong was studying soul beasts and exploring the heritage of nature, he would also absorb some soul beast groups that were willing to cooperate with humans. A researcher who doesn't understand sustainable development is not a good cook.

Chen Hong has a rather unique viewpoint: he doesn't believe that new things can't defeat old things.

"Leave it to me." Upon hearing this, Xue Di walked towards Ning Quan's ice sculpture.

However, soon after, the Snow Empress's jade hand touched Ning Quan's ice sculpture and said to Chen Hong, "He is a bit special. Once the extreme ice is removed, his sword must strike, otherwise he may die instantly. Moreover, his sword is very special. It can only strike if there is a target. It is a locked skill."

Snowflakes drifted down from the sky, and the Snow Emperor frowned slightly, seemingly finding Ning Quan in his hands a bit troublesome.

Her condition was very special, and Ning Quan's sword seemed to be a strike aimed at the soul. Although Xue Di was not worried about being injured, she was worried that Ning Quan's soul strike might accidentally break the seal she had placed on herself. In that case, the ten thousand years of preparation time she had originally reserved for herself might be wasted by two or three thousand years.

As for letting the Ice Emperor take the hit? If the Ice Emperor wanted to take the hit, she wouldn't need to strike first. With the combination of the Eternal Freeze Domain and the Wrath of the Ice Emperor, she could detonate the cold poison within Ning Quan's body, instantly interrupting Ning Quan's attack from both inside and outside and freezing him.

What is Ice Emperor afraid of when attacked by a Soul Master whose cultivation level seems to be below Soul Saint?

"." Hiding behind Xue Di, Bing Di noticed the hesitation on Xue Di's face, but she remained silent and had no intention of volunteering.

Ning Quan's sword strike... she had personally experienced the threat posed by him. That soul-level slash reached the offensive intensity that only a Title Douluo could achieve. She was indeed a super soul beast, but the soul has always been a soul beast's weakness. Taking Ning Quan's soul slash head-on would have been no less damaging to Ice Empress than taking a Judgment Sword without Chen Hong's support!

"Huh, is it that special? Then I'll do it." Just as Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor remained silent, and Qian Daoliu was about to speak up, Chen Hong, the weakest among them, volunteered.

"Are you sure?!" Hyotei looked at Chen Hong with an incredulous expression, but Chen Hong ignored her and walked up to Ning Quan, curiously examining Ning Quan's posture as he raised his sword to strike.

Logically speaking, the Big Dipper constellation shouldn't appear in a cosmic plane that has absolutely no connection to my previous life, but it did appear in reality.

"Are you confident?" Qian Daoliu wanted to offer to try, but then he realized that if anything went wrong, their peaceful conversation with the Ice and Snow Emperors would be over. If Qian Daoliu lost his ability to escape the Snow Emperor's clutches, they would be at a significant disadvantage, forced to rely solely on Chen Hong as a threat, unlike their previous two-pronged approach. Therefore, Qian Daoliu withdrew his words and looked at Chen Hong with a serious expression.

In Qian Daoliu's impression, Chen Hong was not the kind of person who liked adventure.

Even now, facing the Ice and Snow Emperors, it's almost a guaranteed victory. Once the self-destructing truck explodes, Qian Daoliu will go home to receive his inheritance, and then, as the saying goes, "A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years." Ten years later, he will lead his team to wipe out the Ice and Snow Emperors, who have only had time for a short nap in ten years.

"Are you sure you can handle it? Senior, it seems you've forgotten what happened on Sea Soul Island back then?" Chen Hong asked with a smile, his words full of confidence.

If Ning Quan's fatal strike was a physical attack, then Chen Hong could only start crying: Uncle! You died so tragically... no, so completely!

However, when it comes to the three essential elements of divinity at the soul level—divine authority, divine body, and divine soul (divine power is an advancement of soul power; once these three are mastered, divine power is inherently present)—Chen Hong touched upon the realm of the divine soul almost without even realizing it. And now, under the operation of the Black Lotus Soul Eye, this 'dimensional switch,' Chen Hong is able to allow his soul to enter the dimension belonging to 'gods' on his own.

Chen Hong's current methods of using telekinesis to control soul power particles, tear apart the Thousand Flow Martial Soul True Body, and shatter the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Armor are all dimensional reduction attacks performed after his soul enters the dimension of gods.

Originally, Chen Hong's soul wouldn't have entered the divine dimension so quickly. This was all thanks to his martial soul's mental power, which was highly bound to his soul. When his mental power entered the divine dimension, it would indirectly pull Chen Hong's soul into the divine dimension.

"Understood." Qian Daoliu's eyes flickered for a moment, then he nodded.

"Are you ready?" Xue Di didn't object, since they had nothing to lose anyway.
