Divine Beast Creator

Seeing that the others seemed to still not comprehend what was happening, Feng Yuan was about to explain when he noticed that the river surface began to change once again.

The Special Duty Team, who had come upon hearing the commotion, stood between the crowd and the spiritual bodies, warily keeping an eye on those mysterious figures. Truthfully, everyone knew in their hearts that such a multitude of souls was an impossible miracle.

However, with the involvement of the Special Duty Team, shadows they were familiar with suddenly emerged among those souls, and observing those familiar actions, even they couldn’t help but be emotionally affected.

"Alright, don’t worry, it’s not a bad thing; it’s just a miracle born out of coincidence."

Noticing that the Special Duty Team seemed inclined to act, Feng Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and shouted loudly, and Ye Hanlei turned to Feng Yuan and shouted

"Do you know what’s going on?"

"Of course, this can be considered a miracle born out of multiple coincidences. Although these are traces they left in reality, they are quite different from souls in the conventional sense."

Feng Yuan loudly explained while looking at the souls on the river surface. He knew very well that if he didn’t explain clearly, many might not be able to resist taking action, after all, using those who are dear to them to stir trouble would likely anger most people.

"Do you remember the experiences I mentioned to you over these days? These pseudo-spiritual bodies are somewhat similar to that kind of existence, but they lack their own consciousness and are merely traces left by victims in this world manifesting again. They can be viewed as their final shadows, meant to offer a final farewell to you."

Smiling, Feng Yuan looked at those spiritual bodies and explained, causing Liao Yu and others to be taken aback, while the people of Baiman City already recognized Feng Yuan and naturally wouldn’t suspect him of lying, given he had previously led Divine Beasts to save Baiman City.

"A final farewell? He sure knows how to talk. I bet it’s just a coincidence born naturally."

Veronia murmured as she watched Feng Yuan babbling nonsense, yet she already understood what’s happening thanks to Feng Yuan’s explanation. Simply put, the power of Long Boduo, coupled with the concentrated thoughts in this place, forcibly gathered the traces left by those sacrificed, forming these special spiritual bodies that resemble them.

These spiritual bodies lack their own consciousness and couldn’t even be considered souls. As time passes, they will soon fade away.

As for the talk of farewells, it’s even more impossible, for they have no consciousness whatsoever to offer a farewell.

Yet Feng Yuan’s explanation was exactly what they hoped to hear, so even if there were issues, they didn’t delve deeper or, in other words, preferred not to burst this illusionary bubble.

"Could this have something to do with the Qi Realm?"

Recalling something, Dou Yanlan couldn’t help but ask, as the peculiar nature of this incident made her instinctively think of the Qi Realm due to the Qi Realm Timeline experiences, or more precisely, the Qi Realm inherently had similar features.

Setting aside the special case of Peculiar Realm Qi Chen, most of the Qi Realm Soul Projections they encountered were still able to exist even after the body’s death, and these souls before their eyes...

"It should have, after all, there’s a considerable possibility of new rules being added, but it’s not much of a problem."

Gazing at the river surface, Veronia casually remarked, not mentioning that people now might not be willing to believe these pseudo-spiritual bodies posed a threat, as in its eyes, those spiritual bodies and soul projections had fundamental differences.

Just as Dou Yanlan wanted to say something, some spiritual bodies began slowly dissipating, but these bodies were transforming into dots of light while simultaneously floating towards the sky.

For a moment, it seemed as though countless fireflies were dancing in the sky above the river.

The more dreamy it was, the more brutal it felt. Qi Chen understood for the first time what it truly meant, as this fantastical scene masked the deaths of nearly half of Baiman City’s victims...

Watching the crowd overcome with cries of anguish, Dou Yanlan sighed in this atmosphere; even she couldn’t help but feel sorrowful, despite... her luck being so fortuitous.

Regardless of whether it was during the War Timeline or the Qi Realm Timeline, she and Qi Chen had a romantic connection, yet both the process and outcome seemed rather unsatisfactory, with only the Main World being relatively favorable.

"I didn’t expect that previous move of yours could lead to this result; really something..."

As Dou Yanlan unleashed her thoughts, Feng Yuan finished explaining and walked back. As he arrived, he shook his head and grumbled in front of Long Boduo, leading the latter to awkwardly smile, not expecting to stir up this occurrence.

"Long Boduo might not even know since world rules have changed."

"What do you mean?"

Upon hearing Veronia’s words, Feng Yuan looked at it wondering since he didn’t think he would be unaware of the world rules’ shifting, given such matters generally wouldn’t just happen quietly; something would typically serve as a sign.

"That thing somewhat resembles Qi Realm soul projections; perhaps this is a change produced by the overlap of Qi Realm rules."

Turning his head to glance at the spiritual bodies floating on the river surface, Veronia noted. Stroking his chin, Feng Yuan said thoughtfully

"When you put it that way, indeed, but if that’s the case, wouldn’t the powers of Ghost Series and Death Series undergo some changes? Also Mystic Series... Well, let’s not worry about Mystic Series."

Mystic Series is a special classification, appearing to have mixed powers internally due to all powers unable to independently form a series being assigned to Mystic Series, resulting in such circumstances.

This also leads to the Mystic Series being impossible to discern even if changes occur since Mystic belongs to different series where anything can happen.

Even if variations arose due to the Qi Realm, they wouldn’t be perceivable, not even by Feng Yuan, who couldn’t fully grasp all the mysteries.

"It shouldn’t, since Qi Realm lacks specific attributes, how could it directly alter these two series’ powers."

Veronia remained indifferent on the matter, for changes amongst different attributes of powers were rarely significant due to such reasons, making Qi Realm unlikely to cause such impact.

"Not change, as you mentioned if Long Boduo previously didn’t possess this ability, it might only be the emergence of the Qi Realm causing synchronized changes in the rules, and such changes couldn’t just be confined to Divine Beasts."

Rolling his eyes, Feng Yuan retorted irritably. Although the prowess of Divine Beasts vastly surpassed Ordinary Spirit Beast, scenarios involving attribute power never were solely beneficial to Divine Beasts.

It’s just due to the enormous Ultimate Move Pools and formidable strength of Divine Beasts, these beings were often the first to encounter the issue.

"This, I’ll have to ask them."

Hesitating, Long Boduo spoke. Naturally, it was inappropriate to attempt here due to the excessive commotion caused by deploying an ultimate move, but its Netherworld counterparts were different, capable of freely using ultimate moves within the Netherworld to test for issues.

Testing for changes in the ultimate moves wouldn’t take much time, especially since they could freely use ultimate moves in the Netherworld, leading Long Boduo to soon return with a conclusion.

"Ultimate moves didn’t undergo any obvious changes; it doesn’t appear like any change happened, but..."

Undeniably, Feng Yuan’s conjecture was not unfounded. Although numerous spiritual bodies had already dissipated, as more people from Baiman City continued arriving, the air above the river remained rather crowded; if this batch of spiritual bodies were indeed induced by its actions, it’s hard to say if a change in the rules transpired.

"The gathering forming something akin to a soul is due to the presence of thoughts, and I wonder if I could achieve it as well."

Recalling something, Veronia muttered softly, stretching out her small hand, where a pitch-black crystal began to gather and grow within her tiny palm, as Netherworld’s aura spread all around, prompting Feng Yuan to look towards Veronia with a puzzled expression.

The counterpart utilized a Ghost Series ultimate move, resembling the War Fog’s effect. However, Veronia controlled the range, thus not causing any chaos.

Feng Yuan didn’t understand what the counterpart intended, but before he could speak, he saw in the black mist a soul was gradually forming, donned in armor, seemingly a Heavy Armored Knight.

For a split second, Feng Yuan recognized the counterpart’s identity, presumably the one Veronia couldn’t forget.

To Feng Yuan’s surprise, Veronia appeared startled upon seeing the counterpart and forcibly ended the ultimate move; as the Netherworld mist receded, the forming soul dissipated along with it.

Watching Veronia’s unease, Feng Yuan was uncertain if he should ask, considering that just now... Veronia seemed to have enacted something similar to what Long Boduo did?

Lost in reminiscing, it took Veronia a long moment to regain composure, as she sighed quietly before looking at Feng Yuan saying

"I think I’ve already understood what’s happening."
