Chapter 132 – “The All-devouring Soul” Cleared!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The strongest person in the world, 73400.
The All-devouring Soul, 76000.
Rensuo exhaled heavily and let go of the joystick – After using his strategy for more than ten days, he finally arrived at this stage.
The monkey’s sea-splitting attack set a new combat record, showing that the All-devouring Soul could theoretically deliver the strongest blow that surpassed the strongest in the world, after combining all its abilities.
Although he still did not see the strongest in the world at the end, there was no final boss to defeat. Hence, the theoretical possibility was enough.
There were only three or four days left until all the spiritual treasures are opened, and there should be no time to open the spiritual treasures again.
The countries in which the spiritual treasures of the All-devouring Soul had been activated, were Europe, Asia, North America, Australia, and South America. The only two spiritual treasures that Rensuo was sure of were Africa and Russia. However, they were both large countries and it would require three or four days for the spiritual treasures to be activated.
After all the spiritual treasures are automatically
activated, the combat power of the world’s strongest man will soar to a higher level. Ren Suo was not certain if the All-devouring Soul could catch up with the world’s strongest man without advancing in level.
It is now the best time for clearing levels.
When the monkey reached a safe place with “Knight’s Wind”, an in-game prompt popped up:
“The combat power of the All-devouring Soul has surpassed the strongest man in the world and satisfied the conditions for clearance.
“Do you choose to clear the level and acquire the quest settlement status? Once the quest is settled, this file will be archived and you will not be able to continue playing. The All-devouring Soul will remain in its current state.”
“It has been detected that the player has some remaining control characters. Once archived, the other control characters will continue the player’s last command and go on to become an uncontrollable NPC. Please complete the arrangements for the remaining characters before archiving.”
Ren Suo stared at the top of the screen.
Apart from the monkey, there were also other controllable characters like the humanoid pangolin and a small Nine-tailed fox. At this moment, a chat bubble popped up above the pangolin’s head.
Next, it transitioned into a conversation between Old Zhao and the pangolin.
“Comrade pangolin, don’t be sad, cheer up.”
Old Zhao patted the pangolin’s shoulder and said, “Your time will come.”
“What?” the pangolin asked ventrally.
“Huh?”
Old Zhao pointed at the display in front of him and asked, “Aren’t you feeling dejected and sad because your companion, the Monkey has become so strong and powerful?”
On the display screen, the scene where the monkey beat the angel was on replay and the angle of the camera seemed to be from the roof of a house in New York. The footage seemed to have been shot with special equipment too. Although there was no audio available,the monkey’s various changes and magical powers were rather cool. The last sea-splitting attack was incredibly exciting!
Ren Suo blinked and made the Pangolin say, “Yeah, sigh.”
The pangolin finally agreed to communicate.
Old Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief and asked after beating around the bush for a while. “Why are monkeys so powerful after transformation but Comrade Pangolin, you…”
Ren Suo casually made up an excuse. “Because, I, failed to transform. Did ot gain entry to the Celestial Palace or the Soul Inheritance.”
The Celestial Palace Inheritance!
Old Zhao thought about the cause and effect, and quickly deduced a clue. However, Pangolin’s words made him feel terrible and he decided to help him speak. “You mean, the beasts that have been successfully transformed will get the legacy of the Great Sage?”
The pangolin pressed his head with his right hand and nodded. At this moment, Old Zhao couldn’t help but take pity on the pangolin. “Since you’ve lost this opportunity, is there any remedy for it? Feel free to tell me. I’ll try my best to communicate with the superiors. After all… we were the ones who disrupted your transformation ritual.”
The pangolin is currently the only member of the Celestial Palace who had a close friendship with Xuan NAtion. If possible, the Xuan Nation would definitely not hesitate to give Pangolin some great advantages and help him become stronger.
Pangoline said, “Immortal, time, fate. Spirit veins revive, I continue to cultivate, maybe, there is, a chance.”
Old Zhao secretly decided to report to his superiors about the potential of the pangolins so that they could continue cultivating well. He continued to probe further, “Where … where is Monkey King now?”
The Pangolin answered, “Go back, all, transformation, successful, have to go back and continue practicing.”
Old Zhao nodded. Although the Monkey King’s strength was also impressive enough, he still could not compare to its form in the myths. In myths, it had a golden baton and could transform 72 times with a somersault. He was truly formidable.
If the Monkey King can truly become the Great Heavenly Sage, it will definitely take a long time to cultivate.
However, could it really be…
Old Zhao frantically asked, “Does the Heavenly Sage really exist? Comrade, do you know any other characters or sages in the Celestial Palace?”
The pangolin waved his hand and said, “Deities, if I say, I die.”
Greatly taken aback, Old Zhao asked, “Will the deity know if we mention his name?”
The pangolin answered, “For you, it doesn’t matter. I can’t say it. The deity, I must, keep the secret. Otherwise, it will, be the end of me. I also, have forgotten.”
Old Zhao had no idea if the pangolins had good memory skills but he reckoned otherwise since they didn’t even have hair.
He thought, However, if a beast like Pangolin knows the truth about the immortals? If the news are leaked after they descend on the mortal world, will Pangolin be burnt by the fire of the immortals?”
Old Zhao’s face grew sullen. I’m afraid even the people of Celestial Palace believe that tactics mean more than heart but I wonder what they’re like…
“Why can the Monkey King mention the Heavenly Sage then?”
“He, has, inheritance, can, mention, his own, origin.”
Old Zhao nodded. Everything makes sense now.
After comforting pangolin, Old Zhao told him that he would let the pangolin move to the best environment. Ren Suo subconsciously wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he decided to switch characters.
Ren Suo then turned on the intelligent control interface and arranged the final instructions for the pangolin.
It would be impossible for it to commit suicide directly. Anyway, after being played for a few days by Ren Suo, it still needed a clear direction for its future.
From the beginning, Ren Suo gave the pangolin two instructions and that was to wait for instructions, eat, and sleep.
Things were no longer that simple now. Ren Suo activated the character control interface and adjusted the settings. As long as the character has been set, the pangolin will act according to the setting.
Background: The pangolin came from the Celestial Palace but had already forgotten all the information about it.
No family.
Main characteristics: Kind but not saintly. Will fight for his goals. Will not create trouble but will not be afraid if anything happens. Will retaliate.
Ability: Ground-digging and using ventral speech.
Goal: Cultivation; To become the world’s super pangolin that is comparable to humans.
Next, there were issues like sexual orientation, sleeping posture, food preferences and many others. After Ren Suo carefully filled it in, the pangolin was set.
Next, little nine-tailed fox.
Ren Suo stared at the screen to see that it was all stained with dirt and was hiding in the bush and feigning dead. The little nine-tailed fox was covered in white fur and was wondering if it could jump out of the screen.
Ren Suo found it to be cute and wanted to rear it!
However, the small nine-tailed fox is now on Liberty Island, and after performing the “Immortal Inheritance”, it had already lost other abilities.
Due to the fact that the nine-tailed fox was not in a human form when it activated the inheritance, it was still in the body of a nine-tailed fox. However, it could swim and hence, Ren Suo got it to swim back to New York, and completed her role.
Unlike the Pangolin, the Nine-tailed fox could still connect with countries in a humanoid form. With the Nine-tailed fox’s current state, it would very likely be sent to the research institute if it gets exposed. It wasn’t likely that it would be dissected but its blood might be drawn for research.
Therefore, Ren Suo set Nine-tailed fox to be cunning and intelligent. Its priority was to stay alive but was also kind and brave enough to retaliate.
The future will depend on their fate.
Ren Suo switched the control perspective back to the Demon Monkey King and the prompt remains – “Do you choose to clear the level and acquire the quest settlement status? Once the quest is settled, this file will be archived and you will not be able to continue playing. The All-devouring Soul will remain in its current state.”
In just one hour, the world’s strongest man actually had his combat power increased by 420. Although it was not much, it made Ren Suo determined.
“The All-devouring Soul has surpassed the strongest in the world.”
“Mission Complete!”
