Chapter 2426: Chapter 2430

“What?”

Alex grabbed one of the Mystic Maiden’s white jade feet and was completely stunned. “This is…

Someone wants to take over my father’s body?”

The Mystic Maiden shook her head. “Soul-planting, not possessing. Soul-planting is a hundred times

crueler than possessing. Thousand times crueler!”

Alex’s grip tightened. His heart was shaking.

The Mystic Maiden’s beautiful eyebrows twitched slightly. Alex’s grip was too hard and was pinching

her painfully.

However, this time she did not scold him harshly. Instead, she only gently broke free and then said,

“Those whom the great figures chose to plant their souls are supreme geniuses. So, in that case, your

father is very talented. Otherwise, he would not have suffered this situation.”

Alex fell on her bed on his butt.

Taking away the body was already cruel. Soul-planting was a hundred times more brutal than taking

away the body a thousand times. He really couldn’t imagine how painful that was.

After that, the Mystic Maiden gave him an explanation of what soul-planting was.

The requirements for both the spell caster and the spell recipient were very high. First, the spell caster

must have had a cultivation level above god and a high level of research in soul arts; then, the physical

quality of the spell recipient and the state of the soul must also be quite powerful.

There were rumors that the spell caster must be the leader of a realm with talent far beyond those so-

called divine sons and daughters.

What kind of harsh conditions were these?

The process of planting a soul was different from taking a body. Possession was straightforward and

brutal. It used its souls to exterminate other people’s souls. Their souls would take over and control the

flesh, soul- planting was not that.

Soul-planting was when a great person used the divine substance in his soul, including a part of the

soul power to be planted into the body of the genius. Thus, the genius’s soul slowly nourished the

caster’s soul power. At the first stage, one might not feel it. But as time passed, the more painful it

became.

The soul of the enchanted person would be consumed and worn down slowly.

More importantly, due to the soul of the great person, the enchanted person’s flesh and body would be

affected by a kind of divine order energy. The effect was similar to poisoning, which was actually the

process of constantly sacrificing the flesh and subliminally. In the end, it was similar to possessing

because the flesh was completely controlled by others.

The Mystic Maiden said, “Heaven and earth have rules, the sacred has order. Possessing is a very low-

end operation because it is simple and crude. There are great disadvantages too. The more godly the

character, the less likely possession will happen. This is because god has an order, and possessing will

incur backlash. The loss is not worth the gain. Even if one is successful, there is nothing to glorify. But,

to plant a soul was to completely and utterly turn someone else into yourself. Taking someone’s body

and soul means taking away their destiny and Heavenly Path of God, which is equivalent to stealing

creation.”

As the Mystic Maiden spoke, she also sighed and spoke about a past incident, saying that she once

knew a friend who was a genius divine son of one of the great worlds, a reincarnation of a super great

person, born with heavenly talent, but ended up being taken by an old man with a strong background.

He was captured to plant the soul. After going through a lot of pain, he finally had to be baptized by the

three thousand thunder tribulations of the nine heavens and ten earths.

Alex asked, “What happened in the end to this friend of yours?”

The Mystic Maiden’s gaze was deep and distant before she finally sighed. “The tribulation succeeded,

and he survived. Today, I’m afraid his achievement has skyrocketed. But that is not him. It’s someone

else’s incarnation.”

“Aren’t there any solutions?”

“There is!”

“What is it?”

“Find that caster. Then, your father, in turn, encroaches on his order of the divine path, but… You do

not seem to have enough time. According to your father‘s current situation, I estimate that he will have

to experience the tribulation at most a year. Three thousand thunder tribulations and nine deaths. The

gap in strength between you and that person is a hundred thousand miles!”

After speaking with the Mystic Maiden, Alex’s mood worsened.

After his consciousness returned to his physical body, he looked at his father, William, yelling and

screaming. The chains on his body through the lute bone were violently wrenched, pulling the lute bone

that was about to break. There was blood filling his two shoulders. His expression was hideous and

mindless.

But, Alex could not do anything about it.

“Alex, what‘s wrong with you? Hurry up and feed Uncle the antidote!” Cherry urged. She was unable to

bear Alex’s expression of pain at this moment.

Alex, with red eyes, shook his head. “Do not give it to him!”
