Chapter 346 Dominate [4]

The will soon arrived in Damien’s spiritual world. It was situated on a large floating landmass.

“Not bad. Not bad. His spiritual continent is already this big at his strength level. This is truly a good body.”

The will grinned to itself and shot into the landmass, sinking into the ground. It spread its spiritual intent and began coloring the landmass in its aura.

“He should have noticed by now. Let’s see if he can do anything to stop me. Hahahaha!”

As the will expected, a spiritual avatar of Damien soon arrived in the area.

“Who is it? Come out for this Young Master!” He shouted into the void.

“Boy, you’re quite arrogant, aren’t you? To dare talk in such a tone in front of me, you must be eager to die.” The will responded.

Damien frowned. “And who the hell are you? Don’t you know where we are? In this space, I am the master!”

“HAHAHAHA! You? Master? Kid, are you even aware of what’s happening right now? Do you even understand the situation you’re in? The younger generation is so foolish that it’s almost sad.”

Damien’s frown deepened. “Then why don’t you inform me? What’s the situation right now?”

The will sneered. “Kid, even if you knew, there’s nothing you can do to stop it. Well, it’s no harm in telling you since you won’t be around much longer. This body…I’m taking it as my own!”

Damien’s eyes widened in shock. “Possession?!”

“Right! It’s already too late for you to do anything! With such a minor spiritual continent, how can you oppose me?!”

The will began to laugh madly. Its aura had already permeated to the deepest depths of the spiritual continent, and it wouldn’t be long until it took it over completely.”

“Kid, allow me to tell you a story. There was once a man who yearned for adventure. He was a man who loved to indulge himself in following his desires. But what did others do? They shunned him. They disliked the fact that someone could live the unrestrained life that they all wanted but couldn’t achieve.

“But the man didn’t care about their scorn. He continued to live as he wanted and he did what he wished. He bedded the finest women and had all the riches he could ever imagine! What a life that man lived! But one day, he decided to enter a secret realm to explore. He wanted to obtain the secrets to immortality so his beautiful life wouldn’t be cut short by anyone.

“That secret realm wasn’t what it was advertised to be. It was full of monsters leagues more powerful than the man. What could he do? He could only serve those monsters like a dog so he wouldn’t get killed off with the rest.”

Damien listened to the intruder’s story quietly. He could feel his spiritual avatar becoming more and more transparent with the passing of time.

He spread his spiritual intent and tried to combat the mysterious force that had begun to pervade his spiritual continent, but it was all for naught. That force was far more powerful than the spiritual intent he could produce.

Meanwhile, the will continued its story.

“That man worked like a slave for years on end. He didn’t have any choice other than to endure. For him, who was so used to living freely in the small world he came from, this kind of life was unacceptable.

“So, one day he decided to revolt. But against those monsters, he was truly nothing. He died pointlessly and was forced to leave his life in the secret realm. But he was unresigned!

“His soul wandered the secret realm, unable to find peace. Soon, he stumbled upon an ancient temple that had been uninhabited for ages.

“He stayed in the temple and made it his home. After many many years, the temple accepted him and he became the one in charge of arbitrating its trials.

“But that also meant he lost his freedom once again. His soul became rooted to the temple, unable to escape the duty that had been forced on him. This temple was far stronger than the monsters he fought before, so he truly couldn’t escape.

“But he did his best to enact revenge. Any time new people entered the temple hoping to gain its inheritance, he would kill off as many as possible. Until this day, the temple remained uncleared for this reason.”

Damien could tell which direction the story would go. In the end, that remnant soul was degraded until it reached its current state, and now it was trying to possess a body so it could escape.

“Why me? There are more powerful people in the inheritance site right now, so why am I the one you’re possessing?” He asked while sighing in resignation. Even until now, nothing he did could get rid of the remnant soul trying to possess him.

“Isn’t that obvious? If I try to take one of those demons, I’ll just be forced back into slavery. As for the other two girls, they can’t compare to you. I only chose the best option!”

Damien sighed once again. “Can I at least see the true face of the one about to take over my body before I die? Otherwise, I don’t think I can go in peace.”

The remnant will found it an odd request, but it spread its spiritual intent and couldn’t find anything wrong with the surroundings. Therefore, it decided to comply.

“Very well! Feast your eyes on this King!” The will showed Damien its true body. It was a semi-transparent body of an old man. Seeing Damien’s almost faded spiritual avatar, it wasn’t worried at all about anything going wrong.

However…

“That’s it?”

Damien’s voice rang out again. This time, it didn’t come from the fading avatar.

“What?” The remnant will voiced its confusion, but soon found that its body was bound. “What the hell is this?!”

Damien’s body soon emerged from the darkness. “I have to say…I’m truly disappointed.”

Unlike the other spiritual avatar that looked on the verge of breaking, this one was extremely solid, not much different from a physical body.”

“You…!”

“I put up such a high level of defense just for the remnant will of some old fogey? Seriously, I’m a little pissed.

“When I first thought about it, body possession seemed to be the most likely end. After all, the trials were too easy and the inheritance was too rewarding. The thing is, I was expecting the soul of the inheritance site, or at least some old master that was extremely powerful.

“But it’s you? Not even a remnant soul, but a will? Your soul has been degraded to such a point but it doesn’t even seem like you realize it. It’s truly a shame. And here I thought I’d get some good nourishment for my spiritual world. Your spiritual intent is only enough to devour this tiny floating island? Seriously?”

Damien signed in exasperation. “Let me show you who you messed with before you die.”

Whoosh!

The veil of darkness around the floating landmass vanished. The starry sky above with those three stars shining brightly, the massive spiritual continent off to the side, and the light blue barrier of the Mind Prison they were currently inside of.

“This is…impossible! How can a brat like you have such a profound spiritual world?! I don’t believe it! Hahaha! You think this level of illusion can fool me?! Now that I’ve controlled your spiritual continent, you still dare pull tricks?! That’s it, brat. Kneel before me and die!”

The old man’s remnant will maddeningly shouted and mobilized all of his spiritual intent. However, he was only met with silence.

“Haa…I thought I’d gain something from this but it’s just some idiot. Whatever, I’m done talking. Just die.”

The sun that shone far away in the starry sky lit up with splendor, and a ray of light soon shot down. The entrance to the Mind Prison cracked open and the ray entered, incinerating the small floating island inside.

The remnant will’s hysterical screeches faded into the background as it was turned into pure spiritual intent for Damien to absorb. However, this much wasn’t even enough to fit between his teeth.

Damien sighed for the umpteenth time today and shook his head.

“What a waste of time.”

Leaving those words, he exited his spiritual world and arrived back in reality.
