Chapter 878: Panic Caused by Strengthening Power
“Mom Miranda, what’s wrong with you?” Nora blinked her eyes and looked at Miranda, puzzled.
Miranda gazed at Nora, and a flash of purple light flickered in her beautiful eyes. For a moment, she felt an impulse to harm Nora. It was as if there was some hidden instinct deep within her soul, a desire to destroy all living beings. This made Miranda’s heart tremble, and she forcefully bit her tongue.
How could she have such a terrifying impulse? Could it be that the evil spirit that had invaded her body and soul before had not been completely eliminated?
“I am okay? How long have I been unconscious?” Miranda shook her head, forcefully suppressing the impulse in her heart, and asked Nora with a smile.
“It’s been more than twenty days!” Nora said worriedly.
As she spoke, Nora shouted at the top of her lungs, “Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle… Mom Miranda woke up!”
In no time, a large group of people rushed in from outside, looking at Miranda with concerned expressions.
“Miranda, how are you?”
“Darling?”
“Sis, what happened to you?”
“Miss Lowe…”
Everyone bombarded her with questions…
After repeatedly assuring everyone that she was fine, Miranda finally persuaded them to leave.
At this moment, she was alone in the room.
She furrowed her brows, feeling the sudden emergence of some familiar yet unfamiliar memories in her mind.
It was a kind of blurry image, as if she was constantly flying, leaving a trail of blood along the way.
Her field of vision seemed filled with ghostly and gray scenes.
Wherever she went, devastation followed.
“No! This can’t be me!”
“This definitely isn’t me!”
“Who am I? How did I awaken these dreadful memories?”
Miranda grabbed her head, fear and restlessness murmuring to herself.
At this moment, she could feel that with her awakening from this coma, more memories had surfaced, and the strength of her soul had greatly increased.
With a single thought, she could release her spiritual power externally, even shattering tables and chairs directly.
Her spiritual power had reached the level of External Release.
With her Intermediary Soul Physique, as her soul grew stronger, her physical strength had also undergone a leap.
It was comparable to the late stage of Myriad Forms.
In terms of physical combat power, in strength, speed, defense, and other attributes, she was strong enough to contend with an early-stage Void Reclusion expert.
Although Miranda hadn’t mastered any profound principles of heaven and earth or possessed any bodily divine abilities like Lachlan, she discovered that she had awakened an incredibly powerful ability.
This ability could be considered sinister, even causing Miranda to feel it was detrimental to her karma.
Soul Domain of Annihilation!
It was a move related to the soul: when Miranda activated the Soul Domain of Annihilation, if someone died within its range, she could control the deceased person’s soul, temporarily resurrecting them to fight for her.
She could also directly explode the souls within the range, turning them into soul energy and inflicting terrifying soul attacks on her targets.
According to the level of spiritual power, it was divided into Sensation, Subtlety, Internal Fusion, External Release, and Corporeal Manifestation.
At the current stage, with Miranda’s strength of soul, if she used Soul Annihilation against cultivators whose soul realm was below “Corporeal Manifestation,” the explosion would scatter their souls.
And the bursting soul, transformed into pure soul energy, Miranda could devour and absorb it, strengthening her soul and power.
It has to be said, Miranda’s awakened ability is truly extraordinary and terrifying.
Detonating the soul, directly attacking the enemy’s soul, no matter what incredible power or technique they possess, as long as their mental strength is below the “substantial” level, they can’t withstand this soul-level attack!
However, with just this move, who knows how many tormented souls will be annihilated, scattered, and denied eternal rest.
After understanding her current strength and abilities, Miranda’s delicate body trembled slightly.
The joy brought by her increased power was overshadowed by unease.
“This is too evil!”
“Why do I possess such an evil ability?”
“This isn’t me! I don’t want…”
“Lachlan, where are you?”
“I’m so scared! Where are you?”
“Besides you, I don’t know who to talk to! If people find out that I have such an evil ability, everyone will keep their distance, won’t they?”
“If you knew, would you also keep your distance from me?”
…
“Hmm…”
With a whimper, after a day and a night, Violet finally opened her eyes.
She was pulled back to the Ghost Gate by Lachlan.
“Phew…”
Lachlan let out a long breath, his eyes filled with fatigue.
“You’re awake? How do you feel?”
He asked in a somewhat dry voice.
Savannah, by Violet’s side, also looked at her with concern.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
As soon as Violet opened her eyes, she saw Lachlan’s face filled with remorse and concern, which touched her heart.
“Am… Am I not dead?”
She asked softly.
“You’re not dead! I won’t let you die.”
“Last time, when you were critically injured and on the verge of death, I pulled you back, right? This time is the same! Hehe…”
Lachlan smiled and finally let go of his worries when he heard Violet speak.
If anything happened to Violet, he would live in eternal remorse.
“Mm!”
“Lachlan, thank you…”
Violet assessed her body and couldn’t believe that her injuries had almost completely healed.
Aside from feeling a bit weak, she was fine.
Once again, she marveled at Lachlan’s medical skills.
“No need to thank me! Just don’t blame me!”
“It’s me who should apologize to you. I, Lachlan, was suspicious like a villain and mistrusted you. I am truly ashamed.”
Lachlan reproached himself and didn’t shy away from his thoughts at the time.
Violet clearly sensed that Isa was about to ambush her, which is why she acted suddenly.
This girl was trying to help her!
But he…
Since the incident, Lachlan had been reflecting on himself.
Was his heart too dark?
The despair, betrayal, cynicism, and the fickleness of human nature had made Lachlan’s heart extremely cold and realistic.
Afterward, he experienced the cruelty of the cultivation world!
Lachlan had witnessed the darkest side of human nature.
This caused him to maintain vigilance and a slight hint of hostility towards anyone other than those he absolutely trusted.
As for Violet, Lachlan admitted that they didn’t have much of a relationship.
So, before Ulric’s death, his first reaction was to think that Violet wanted to seize the Way of Death.
But unexpectedly…
