Chapter 318 The Source of Evil That Has Spread to the Territory of Great Xia
Chapter 318 The Source of Evil That Has Spread to the Territory of Great Xia
The origin of evil?
Upon hearing this, a truly insane idea popped into Li Jie's mind.
Could it be that Zeus has been resurrected?
That's impossible...
His body and soul were blasted to smithereens by his own attack, a strike imbued with the laws of death, descending upon the heavens. If he could survive that...
It seems there's nothing that can stop the invasion of the Kreece gods.
"Tell me more about it?"
Only Hera, who brought this news, can dispel Li Jie's doubts.
"Do you remember the little black box you saw in Olympus?"
"Hmm, the source of evil escaped from there... wait..."
Upon hearing this, Li Jie suddenly remembered something.
The situation was rather chaotic at the time, and it seems he forgot to destroy the 'culprit' as he left.
Could it be that...?
Seeing Li Jie's expression, Hera knew that this mortal from Great Xia had already guessed the whole story.
“Zeus was corrupted by the source of evil, and you intervened to stop the spread of evil and killed him. I have wronged you in this matter.”
"But... you didn't destroy the box containing the source of evil, and you haven't told us the truth, which led to the collapse of the World Tree..."
"No matter how you look at it, you're in the wrong in this matter."
Got it!
So, the goddess of Olympus has come to demand an explanation.
"What do you want?"
"It's not about what I want to do, but how you should respond."
Ok?
What does this mean?
Hera's two sentences almost confused Li Jie.
"The collapse of the World Tree is inevitable, and I have ordered the remaining source of evil to be burned."
"But just as they were about to act, the viscous black liquid seemed to receive some kind of guidance and vanished through the void."
"When I set off to pursue them, those remaining sources of evil had already entered the territory of the Great Xia."
"Perhaps this is what you often call karma..."
Has the source of evil escaped into the territory of the Great Xia?
Hearing this, Li Jie finally understood why Hera had specifically asked to find him.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm quite certain I've told you this, consider it some compensation from Olympus..."
"I won't say anything more, you can decide for yourself."
After speaking, Hera, dressed in palace attire, nodded to Xian'er and then withdrew from the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty.
High in the sky, Li Jie was still pondering the message Hera had given him.
It is not impossible that the source of evil escaped into the territory of the Great Xia.
The strange events in the fishing village were caused by the invasion of the power of the Kryptonian gods.
but........
Is there some connection between these two events?
Why did the lingering evil essence within the black box manage to infiltrate the Great Xia territory with such precision...?
Thinking of this, Li Jie couldn't help but turn his gaze to the wisp of divine soul stored in the sword-nurturing gourd.
Is it because of this?
With this thought in mind, he took out that pure white soul and examined it closely.
After thoroughly examining the small, white sphere, he discovered a wisp of black energy rhythmically pulsating at its center...
"Lulu."
Seeing Li Jie's solemn expression, Xian'er also spoke softly.
"Fairy Sister".
"What's going on? Why is there still the source of evil within this soul?"
"How could that be, Fairy Sister? You mustn't wrong an innocent person! That was a soul I refined using pure death laws. Even those type-counter dogs couldn't escape my... annihilation..."
The further she went on, the less confident Lulu seemed.
Because she also saw the black aura flowing in the center of the pure white sphere.
"Sword Master, could you let me take a look at that wisp of divine soul?"
Pulling herself back to reality, Lulu forced herself to remain calm and spoke to Li Jie.
In fact, the moment she saw that wisp of spirit, she knew that something might have gone wrong on her end.
"Take this. If any problems arise, please let us know immediately. This is not a game."
Xian'er took the soul from Li Jie's hand and tossed it to Lulu.
They even added a sentence, completely blocking Lulu's escape route.
Upon hearing this, the latter gave Xian'er a resentful look, then relaxed his mind and focused on probing the strange black mist within the pure white soul.
About ten minutes later, Lulu's expression also darkened.
"It really is......"
"But back then... I clearly annihilated all their consciousness..."
Hearing Lulu's affirmative answer, Li Jie was also certain that Hera's words were true.
Those fleeing sources of evil must have come to Great Xia following the remaining thoughts within this divine soul!
This is bad...
If these roaming sources of evil were to meet those gathered in the fishing village...
Li Jie couldn't even imagine what that scene would be like...
"Go back. This can't be kept secret anymore."
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Li Jie was ready to go back and report.
Since he caused the trouble himself, he has an obligation to resolve it.
But before that, he needs to arrange other things, otherwise...
Whether I can come back after this trip is another matter.
Clearly, Lulu was aware of the seriousness of the situation. Even after she once again extinguished the source of evil within that unconscious soul, a wisp of black mist still lingered faintly in the center of the sphere.
"Something's not right... If it were just a chaotic soul... after being tempered twice by the laws of death, it would definitely be beyond dead..."
"Taking everything into account, these divine souls may also contain the divine souls of other deities of the same element... and very, very powerful ones at that..."
After her attempts failed, Lulu pouted and sat on the Zhuxian Sword with a displeased expression.
“We will not try anymore. Since some sources of evil have escaped into the territory of Great Xia, let’s keep these sources of evil as travel guides for now, and destroy them all after we have dealt with all the sources of evil.”
An unconscious soul is indeed a great opportunity, but clearly, the soul in Li Jie's hands right now is like a hot potato.
Whoever takes it will die...
They traveled in silence, and in less than twenty minutes, Li Jie had brought Xian'er back to Shangjing City.
.............
"Is there no other way?"
After Li Jie finished reporting on the situation in the South China Sea, Ye Fan rubbed his throbbing brows and said with a helpless expression.
"There's probably not much that can be done if it's not handled properly..."
"Those sources of evil could very well have devastating consequences..."
"Great Xia cannot bear this responsibility..."
"When are you leaving? If you need anything, just let me know."
After weighing the pros and cons, Ye Fan did not intend to force Li Jie to stay.
It wasn't that he was heartless, but when it came to the gods of the Kelvin system, these so-called ceilings of humanity really couldn't offer much help.
"It really does."
